She was close on the vampire's trail. She knew she was, because they had just killed, again.
Flipping open her phone she hit speed dial, calling Aro once again, quickly. He said that
they would be there soon, less than a half an hour. Tracking wasn't really as hard as she
thought it would have been. So far she was heading more towards the country. 'Perfect,
less witnesses' She thought to herself with a smirk playing across her face. It was turning
out to be fun.
A family too were chasing the vampire. "We need to stop who ever it is that's killing
mindlessly, it'll start to get dangerous for us, real quick." Edward spoke to his father,
his family, and they agreed. They knew who ever it was, was right up ahead from them.
Bella snarled as she saw a female vampire. She was attractive, in a way. She was a
blond with brown highlights. Gray clashed with gray. She knew who ever turned this
female in front of her, turned Bella also. "He was the one who turned you, you know."
she said with a cocky and mocking voice. Bella narrowed her eyes at the woman.
"I told him he shouldn't of. But he didn't listen to me, he went to turn another, but
that one had killed him. Shame really." she said with a frosty smile. Bella growled and
lunged to the woman, digging her teeth into her shoulder, just as Aro, Jane, Demetri,
Felix, and Caius came into view. Watching Bella rip apart the female. Her shrill screams
filling the quiet air. Then everything went silent as Bella decapitated her, the Cullens just
walking up to the scene.
"Felix, Demetri.." Aro didn't need to say more, as they set the dead female ablaze,
Bella walking to his side, off a few inches. Finally Aro's attention was set on the Cullens.
"Ahh, Carlisle, my dear friend. How are you?" he asked, a grin cast on his face. The
family watched them all warily. "I am fine Aro. Though I can see you got the vampire who
was doing all those killings I take it?" Carlisle asked curiously, looking to the flames
then Aro. "Indeed. But, it was Bella who did." he said, his grin widening a bit. A low snarl
was heard from Jane at the name a heated glare sent to Bella who looked to be fuming.
Everyone turned to the brunette. "Marie" she hissed at him. "You know better than to call
me that outside Italy, Aro." A low growl threatened from her chest as he smirked to her.
"But my dear Isabella, You did a job well done. Did you not?" he asked with a bit of a tease.
"You did just as I expected, I also take it she angered you in a way to be
ripped as such as she was?" He asked with a cocked brow. She glared at him
before answering. "I am not yours, we'll talk about this in private, away from listening ears.
And yes, she did. She knew the man who raped and turned me." Her voice held no
room for argument. Aro grinned brightly, amused. "You will be soon, my dear." He then turned
back to the Cullens just as Bella snarled loudly, clearly not amused. She knew it would be
sooner or later before he was right. She was going no where, and her relationship with Aro
was off limits, well to others anyways.
Jane, was boiling inside as she stayed silent, watching. Aro was one to not piss off.
The Cullens had open confusion on their faces. Edward stared at Bella, she wasn't
facing him she seemed to have a silent argument with Jane. "Bella?" Edward whispered.
They all watched as she turned to him, her gray eyes frozen solid, ice cold. Unforgiving.
She waited for them to say something. "Is that really you?" Alice chirped. Bella nodded once.
"What are you doing with The Volturi?" Edward's voice seemed distant yet cold.
There was relief in his voice though. Aro looked between them, he knew that look.
"Why she is one of us, of course. Her powers are amazing, and she fits with us perfectly."
His voice held excitement, even though Bella was like a statue next to him. Alice wanted
to go and hug her, but something in Bella's expression told her not to. "Aro." Bella said.
He turned to her and nodded. "We should be leaving now. Come Bella, you'll return tonight.
I'll have the Saleen S7 shipped back to Italy." He smiled. She frowned. "I already have the
Aston, Viper, Audi V8, and Lotus. Is a Saleen really needed?" She almost scolded him, but
had to admit it was a good car. He chuckled. "Of course! You're well worth it." He grinned
again.
Edward felt like he was going to be sick. He had to look away from the group, Alice touching
his shoulder in comfort, Jasper sent out a wave of calmness. "Aro, can we leave now?"
Jane wasn't happy one bit. The others were quiet. They watched and listened. "I'm leaving
with the others." Bella paused, "And Aro, I mean it when we'll talk about it later." She shot
a heated glare at him before walking away. Jane, Demetri, Felix, and Caius following. The
smell of smoldering corpse had died down. Aro turned back to the family before him.
"Why is she with you?" Carlisle asked politely. "Curious my dear friend?" Aro asked back.
"I, we all are. She is like family to us, and a daughter to me." Carlisle's eyes were sincere.
A sigh escaped Aro, as he thought for a moment. "She has no where else to go. The wolves
would tear her apart once they find her near there." his eyes hardened. It was the truth. They
would indeed rip her apart once they found her as a vampire. Aro's red eyes crashed with
topaz and honey. "I do have to say, it's difficult getting her to feed on humans. She does it
just to please me, but she is normally, constantly on animal blood. Bella's a feisty one that's
for sure." He chuckled shaking his head. "Well dear friends, seems I must go now, before she
rips me to shreds just for earlier." His grin returned, with mischief in his eyes, he then turned
and vanished where the others went.
Everyone then turned to Edward, questioning eyes. All of their thoughts asking the same
question. "I am fine." He spoke out quietly. They all then turned back to the house they
currently resented in.
Bella's phone had vibrated against her, she looked to caller ID and flipped it open.
Excitement and edginess ran throughout her. "My pet." The voice purred, she stopped
and stood still listening.

Preview;
She spoke with a almost irrated
voice, the ending being said sweetly. The corners of his lips twitched slightly in
a frown then smiled at her for the ending.
"Forgive me, I didn't know my little one. Though," his face turned almost stoic
for a moment. "I'd rather you were here with me instead." he pulled her closely
She stared at him a moment.
