A/N MY exams are complete, so now I guess I could put up a new chapter. I really have no clue how I am going to pull this off, but I am winging it. Tell me what you think in a review
Chapter 18
Felix POV
I waited for Brit's signal. I was pulled into a memory about the first time I had met Amelia.
~Flashback (more than 400 years previously)~(thoughts written in bold)
The Roman's were attacking Volterra again. Aro had sent me to the Captain of the Guard's room. This is the first time I ever was sent here, and the first time to actually meet the Captain. He was only sent to on the most dangerous missions, and I was still a newbie, only being around here for fifty years, so I never met him. I knocked on the door, and awaited an answer. I didn't here any movement, so I turned to leave. As I was about to take the first step, the door swung soundlessly open.
"Hello?" I called, no one was in view. I walked into the room to see no one. It was brightly lit, and a mahogany desk was in the center of the room. There was a pile of parchment on the desk, and a bookcase behind it. There was an ornament carpet under the desk, and a chair in front.
My senses heightened as I sensed danger. I crouched and growled very loudly. I couldn't smell, see or hear the danger, but it was too quiet. No where in the castle was this quiet, not even a private office. I scanned the office, nothing seemed out of place so I straightened out.
A strong body pinned me to the floor, and I fought violently against the pin, but the figure didn't move, or seemed to feel me fighting. Rule number one: trust your gut, rather than your senses in battle. An angelic feminine voice filled my head. I looked up to see a young woman's face. She had midnight black eyes, her blond hair in a braid, and dressed in a complete black fighting suit.(A/n something like an ninja suit)She was beautiful.
"Who are you?" I asked. The captain of the guard.The tone of her voice was like she thought it was obvious.
"But you're a girl" Thank you for noticing, and what if I am a girl. I managed to make you think that the office was empty, make you feel scared yet see no danger, and I managed to pin you and keep you pinned, even though you are stronger the most vampires, including newborns. She smiled then, and looked over to the window.
I am Amelia Cullen, I am about 250 years old, I am the captain of the guard. I know you are Felix Boa Vista, or you used to be. You were born in Spain. You were changed about 52 years ago, and began to work here about 50 years ago. You are stronger then most vampires, and have a power to weaken other vampires physical abilities. The reason that you couldn't fight me off was because I use mental abilities, because A: I am taking to you through your brain therefore I am telepathic, B: I am telekentic, and C: You couldn't sense me because I am a shape-shifter, and therefore I can change my scent or make it seem as though I was not even in the room. You are confused because you didn't see me, and no I can't change out of a human form, though I can appear human to most vampires.
"You are Captain Cullen? Umm… Alright… aa…" I looked at her more closely now. She was extremely petit, and about 5 foot 3. She looked so tiny and fragile to my 6 foot 6. She was so beautiful. I saw her roll her black eyes, before looking intently at me. The war is getting worse, its going to continue this way unless Volterra falls or we defeat the Roman army of vampires, both are going to suffer huge losses. Aro wants my assistance immediately, am I right?
"Yes. That is the reason that he wants you. But… I… black… aaa…." I couldn't speak when she looked at me like that. Don't worry about me, I am a big girl and can take care of myself. I would worry more about yourself, seeing as a "tiny and fragile" girl like myself had you pinned in three seconds flat, I am sure that, that isn't the problem, don't you. Oh and you have some wet stuff coming out from your mouth. I suggest to wipe that off before we go to the brothers. She laughed silently, but the look on her face was so cute. If we both live through this, I will take her out, and make her mate.
As if she heard what I thought… Damn, she tapped her forehead, she can hear what I am thinking. She grabbed a pure black cloak that only the royal family wore, and threw it over her ensemble. Let's go! Her voice was no longer in such a friendly tone, but one of authority. She was angry at my thoughts, I will make it up to her.
She ran quickly to the protected room where Aro, Caius, their wives and Marcus were. Under the constant protection of 10 guards.
"Felix, come to me for a second." Aro extended his hand, apparent of the look on Amelia's face. He seemed preoccupied though, I think he was in a mental conversation with Amelia. I touched my hand to his, and his eyes went out of focus for a second and he was back among the living.
"You know she is absolutely right, don't let your guard down." Aro commented. "I am going to send you both into the battle. Amelia, I know you just got back, but to be frank, we are losing." She nodded. She took of her cloak and handed it to Jane, who was there to guard the family.
I heard the door blast open and about twenty roman vampire surrounded us. Amelia crouched down and hissed dangerously. I did the same, and the other's from the guard went to Amelia's flanks. You could tell she was the one in charge of the guard when it was time for battle. The main objective is to protect the brother's and the wives. This is not a drill people. There is twenty of them and twelve of us. Watch your backs and don't get distracted. AND DON'T LET YOUR GUARD DOWN!!! It was a battle.
"Captain Cullen, Aro is making you fight. The brother's really are at their last stand." A dark vampire commented. Amelia growled at him and all of the sudden he was in the air, screaming by Jane's power, and being torn apart without being touched. I didn't see the rest because a big vampire tackled me. I fought hard, bringing him to the ground and trying to rip him apart, but he vaporized out of my grip. A vampire with a power, and he was reappearing beside Jason. He grabbed the boy's arm and tore it off. Jason's screams echoed through the room. Amelia turned to him and the vampire was against the wall, pinned. Demetri and Heidi took it to their advantage and picked him to pieces.
The next thing I knew Amelia was on the ground, appearing to have a seizure. TOO MANY POWERS AGAINST MY SHEILD!!! HElp… she was getting weak. She was using the rest of her power to communicate to the Volturi, because Marcus broke out of Renata's shield, picked her up and brought her into the shield. I never saw that side of Marcus before, to help a member of the guard, or his brother's.
After about half an hour of fighting, Amelia rejoined. I was fighting a brown-haired averaged sized vampire. "You love her." The vampire said, stopping from attacking me. "I can't fight you." He stated before he ran to leave. I quickly jumped in front of him.
"What do you know Roman?" I hissed. He didn't even crouch; he looked at me with topaz eyes. Wait…topaz. "I know you love her from the feel of your thoughts. You are not the only one. Captain Cullen has gotten herself a few admirers. I can't fight you, so let me by." I pushed him into the wall, he didn't even struggle. "You love her, alright? Let me leave, I only came to help a friend. There is too much fighting, too much death. I want to leave, and save myself and my brother. Please sir, let me go." I released him and he disappeared.
I joined the fight again. I fought harder. A vampire looked like he was almost in a dance with Jane. She seemed to enjoy herself, not yet using her power. Ha, that vampire didn't have a chance. I couldn't enjoy the show; I was pushed into the floor by three vampires. I pushed as hard as I could, but I couldn't be free. One of the vampires torn through my skin and set it on fire. I screamed for the first time since the transformation. The vampires flew off my body and a wind put the fire out. Amelia was watching me. That's my apology for the incident in the room. I smiled at that and went to finish the job. Amelia was distracted by helping me she was tackled to the ground. A vampire was about to tear her to pieces we a the brother of the vampire I let leave grabbed the vampire and threw him into the wall. I saw him lift Amelia's limp body from the dent of her body of the floor in the ground and stood there.
The battle was done, the Roman's fled from the room. There were about five left, besides the guy standing in the middle of the room. There were eight of the guards left. Jane, Alec, Demetri , Renata, Heidi, Amelia, Chelsea and myself.
"The battle is probably not done, but I couldn't let Captain Amelia Cullen to die." The vampire said. How can all these vampires know that the Captain was a girl, and her name on top of that?
"I am Derek Justice, and I mean no harm. I was in the battle to help a friend, and I… I think I am in love with the Captain, Marcus." He told that directly to Marcus, and looked at me. Marcus looked at him, with a bored expression at first but it changed into a happy smile.
"You will make her extremely happy, I can tell by your bonds. You two are destined to be soul mates. I can see she returns the feelings. You know I love her like she is my daughter, and I think I can see my baby girl grow up." NOOOO! NOOOO! Amelia is mine, mine. I growled at pounced at Derek. Renata and Demetri took me to the ground.
"Felix, you want her because of looks. You don't even know what she wants. You have selfish reasons. Please leave to your quarters." It was Aro who spoke. What is with everyone now, he was with the romans for crying out loud.
"Please protect her, and bring her every decade. Oh and let me know when the wedding is, I want to walk my little girl down the aisle." Marcus stated.
"You people cannot be serious." Finally someone agrees with me. It was Caius. "She is the captain of the guard. We can't let her leave like that."
"Caius, don't you want her happy. She been with us since she was a newborn. Take her now, Derek. Please keep her safe." Marcus stated. I saw the vampire leave with my mate in his arms. I will get Amelia from him, she was mine to have.
~End Flashback~
That was before everything changed. Caius disappeared for an entire week after the war had ended three weeks after Mia had left. He returned but he was different. He over-powered Aro and now handles all the decisions that need to be made. He was determined to get Amelia back, and when he learned that Marcus had contacted Derek to tell him to keep Amelia away from Volterra, Marcus was almost put to death.
Carlisle Cullen came about fifty years later, becoming quick friends with Aro. Caius almost put him to death as well, but instead he is keeping a watch on the good doctor's movement. Hoping that one day the doctor would run into the Captain. And that day is now. She is still the Captain to the guard; her room has not been touched since. But she has been hiding for so long, and now we must follow our master's orders.
"Bring Captain Amelia Cullen to the castle, DEAD or ALIVE!"
A/N I hope you like it. It sort of shows how Derek and Mia met. Sort of. She feel in love with him, obviously. Tell me what you think.
