Chapter 5 – Bittersweet Revenge
1678
Bella's POV

Instantly she fell to the ground, convulsing and screaming in agony.

"Please! Please! Make it stop!" She screamed, while the others looked on in horror. Finally, Jane subjected to that absolute torture she turned on people with, all the while never knowing the terrific terror she caused. It made me smile.

"Not until you've apologized for the countless times you've hurt people this way." I said simply.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Please! Please! Just make this pain stop!" she managed, through the terrible pain that had her in its grip. The terrible pain that I caused.
Realizing I'd have to cover my tail, I decided I would make it stop, but only after I had Renata's power at my disposal, because surely once Jane was free, she would turn on me. Keeping part of my vision focused on my writhing victim. I covered Renata with the shield and started pulling immediately at her power essence.

I had learned, and this time I was faster. She slumped to the ground without delay and her power flew in the air. I retrieved and tested it, bending and playing with my new weapon. Once I found that it worked, I let Jane up. Immediately she jumped up and lunged at me just like I had predicted. The shield seemed to be on automatic and Jane was heading in another direction with a confused expression on her face. I burst out laughing. My audience was stunned. They knew then that they stood not a chance against me.

Hmmm, I mulled, I should take Chelsea's power too. Weaken their bonds to the Volturi. That would be a great help.

I turned to her, and with my palms outstretched, coaxed her gift out of her, leaving her helpless. It made them cooperate much more easily.

"Bella?" Felix asked, carefully.

"Yes, Felix?"
"We know now that trying to go against you was wrong. What orders of yours shall we follow?" I was stunned. This was going to be easier than I thought.
"Well I need all of you to go over there," pointing to a tree about 300 ft away. "and wait for me." They went obediently, and after throwing glances over my shoulder at them, I explained everything that went on in the last five years to Jacob. He grew less wary.

"Bella, I'm shocked. I didn't even know leeches had special powers, much less what you can do! Think about what we can do, Bells! We can destroy the Volturi!" Jacob exclaimed.
"But, Jake," I started, worried even though I was completely hyped up on anger and adrenaline, and I wanted nothing more but to kill the Volturi and steal their powers as revenge for attempting to murder my friends, I had to think reasonably.

"Even though I can do this, the Volturi has more power than just what resides in these vampires. The best thing to do now is be subtle."
"Than what are we going to do, Bella?" He sounded disappointed.

"This." I put my lips to his ears and told him our plan.

An hour later...

We were all in position getting, ready to destroy the people who had tried to kill my friends. It was time for a non-corrupt government. Those were my reasons.

The wolves just wanted to kill some vampires. I felt not one hint of nerves. I was ready. Now, time for Phase One of the plan. I slid my shield over the entire Volturi tower and located all the life forces with powers and mentally tied ropes around all of them and pulled in one hard, fast, jerk. It would've taken too long to do them one by one. I heard many people slump down to the ground in one synchronized motion. I gave the signal and the wolves moved in while I absorbed all the powers in the air. On to Phase Two. I crept into the tower on feet high on adrenaline, while the wolves were guarding each way in and out of the ancient building. I walked towards the throne room as if I didn't know what was going on. My dress was in tatters –I asked one of the wolves to rip it to makes it seem like I was in a fight for the sake of theatrics -and as I passed our human receptionist, Lauren, jumped up, startled by my appearance. I just walked by, unconcerned with her. My thirst was not for blood, but for vengeance. When I reached the throne room I saw that the door was closed. I beat on the door furiously giving the impression that I was in a panic. "It's Bella! Please! Let me in! The wolves are coming!" The door opened quickly and I dashed inside. I was surprised to see...everyone. Even though I had led the ones who had witnessed my assault on Jane, I was happy to see the rest. It would only make things that much easier.

"What happened to them?" I asked pointing to the people on the ground. Santiago shook his head.

"We don't know." he answered. I walked over to where Aro was, the head of the room, as usual.

"Nobody move," I announced calmly to the room.

"Unless of course, you want to die."

"Bella! What is the meaning of this?" Santiago asked enraged, while every head turned to look in my direction with murderous glares.

"She is nothing...we can easily defeat her." Louis said to Santiago, bored. They both crouched and sprung. I used my shield immediately as a reflex. Then I shot balls of fire at each of them and froze them in place using Heidi's telekinesis. They burned where they stood while everyone looked on in revulsion, though sadly the faces of my ignorant and impulsive victims were covered by the violet smoke that billowed from their charring stone-like flesh. Some of them tried to run to the exit but they were stopped as the wolves burst in right on time, guarding the exit and snarling at the vampires. I went around to each person and read their thoughts. Most were deplorable and I had the wolves kill them. Good riddance, I thought with a sly smile. When I reached Aro, my sideways smile grew into a wolfish grin. He was still partially coherent after having his power ripped from him, and understood that whatever I saw in his mind determined whether he lived or died. He was scared, as he should be. I touched his hand and the barrage of images I received frightened me. I jerked away, shocked. Aro had lived for many milennia and I should've been prepared! I steeled myself and tried again. The barrage of images came again, but this time I was prepared, I concentrated and the images slowed. I was able to make out the horrible, grisly deeds he had done and planned on doing. He even wanted to kill Didyme! His own sister and Marcus's wife! I couldn't quite believe it. Surely no one would sink so low... I looked around at the piles of ashes and the sweet smoke filling the air. I turned to the wolves,
"Take him too."
"No!" Aro cried and fell to his knees. "Please Bella, spare my life! I beg of you!" I kicked him, disgusted at the thought that he should be shown any mercy.
"You coward. You pathetic excuse for an existence. You dare to contradict me?" I spat.

Then I picked him up with telekinesis and, smiling, tossed him into the roaring flames.
