Felix POV

A month has passed since I first turned Ulrich and Ivan. They couldn't be more different. Ulrich after realizing he wasn't going anywhere simply asked for as much information as he could have on us, on everything. Aro, completely thrilled by this gave him full access to the library and pointed him in the direction of anything he thought Ulrich would find interesting, a little after a week Ulrich had been given full access to the grounds, at two weeks I had taken him out in to Volturi with Alec to test his ability to resist feeding at any moment. He did amazing, granted there were a couple close calls but Alec caught him and stopped him.

Ivan on the other hand had no such aspirations simply asked for more people to feed on and someone to fight. I had gone in there, but I didn't trust anyone else against him… not because I didn't believe they couldn't handle themselves, but more because his blatant lack of disrespect might get him killed.

Ulrich on the other hand has been through sparring sessions with Corin, Santiago, Afton, Demetri, and even Alec who was bored and wanted to hone his hand to hand skills. Ulrich has become more controlled, whether that meant tame or not would yet to be seen. He didn't relish feeding on humans. Most of us didn't at the beginning but it is what is natural to us. It is our nature. Aro had called me to his personal chambers to discuss my first mission for Ulrich, Ivan wasn't nearly controlled enough to do a mission. I appeared at the doorway, knocking for courtesies sake. The door opened and I entered.

"You called Aro." We wore a slightly distraught expression.

"I'm worried about our friend Ulrich, I value him quite well, beside his intimidating presence like yours he has quite a mind too." I nodded not quite sure what to make of his comment.

"Your first mission shouldn't be too difficult for him Felix, will it?" I smiled shaking my head.

"No sir, he kept up with Corin in a pure sparring match, this isn't even a fair fight… but at the same time he's a bit too docile… I need to instill the need to kill in him. He must be ready to kill for us." Aro nodded.

"Of course, of course my Felix, I trust your judgment. " He stopped momentarily…

"What of Ivan, how does he fair?" my expression changed to a darker one.

"Not as well, he is a savage, a beast… he seems only happy when he's fighting and feeding." Aro nodded in response.

"While it may take him more time to calm down he will be a good asset, and he won't be difficult to control either."

"How do you know that Aro?" he smiled showing a bit of his age as he did.

"He wants something, and we have it. As long as that is the case, he'll be easy to control, and we can force his loyalty." I was slightly confused about the first part. The second part I knew was one of our many skills.

"And what does he want?" I asked not seeing the answer.

"He wants a good fight… a real fight… and we can give him all of that he'll ever need."

Ulrich POV

I was still wearing the red robe that Felix gave me on the first day. At first I thought it was odd that I didn't change clothes but since my body didn't produce heat anymore I never sweated. As I thought about it the door opened to my chamber. It wasn't locked like it used to be I could come and go as I pleased. Right now I was reading a poem that Aro said was one of his favorites, Paradise Lost by an English poet John Milton. It was originally published in 1667. I found it extremely interesting, but as the door opened I stood immediately turning my attention to my keeper of sorts, Felix. I stood immediately. Felix smiled slightly.

"We have our first mission today, meet in the main chamber in a minute, here is your clothes." He said tossing a bag at me." I caught it without a second though.

"Oh and bring your robes, you will be using them, we want to look inconspicuous though." He disappeared and in a second I was changed in to the other clothes packing my robes in to the pack he tossed at me. I was in the room four seconds later. Aro smiled giving an amused look.

"Well Ulrich here sure is ready to go quickly." I nodded showing respect for a man who I was beginning to admire. Alec appeared at my side.

"I'm coming as your protection from yourself." Alec said with a smirk. I nodded, it was kind of like I was in hand cuffs, but I didn't mind so much. I walked through Volturi on the overcast day with Felix on my right nearly as tall and built as I was, and Alec the much smaller member on my left. My eyes caught a small woman with bright red hair, long and held by a band. My eyes were immediately focused on her, the way she moved. She was lithe. She moved through the crowd with such a grace that I couldn't stop but watch. She moved closer to us and she blushed seeing my eyes on her. The smell of her blood was amazing. However I'd grown stronger and I could resist it. It wasn't as difficult as the first day of my awakening. Regardless Alec shut down my senses and Felix hurried her along. When I was opened back up Felix smiled putting an arm on my back and ushering me forward.

"You handled yourself well." I nodded following him along but in the back of my mind I was still thinking about the woman who caught my eye. I needed to focus on my mission at hand. This was my first mission. Felix and Alex were my support for the mission. I had been briefed that my mission was to capture and bring in a rogue Vampire for questioning. I had been warned he would not come in without a fight. That is where I come in. I learned he was holed up in a large abandoned building on the outskirts of Verona Italy.

I stopped in front of the large building when we arrived. I looked to my right at Felix and he nodded. I started to step forward but he caught my arm.

"Wait Ulrich, there are some things you need to know about this." He was calm shrugging his shoulders.

"I suppose this is your first mission so you don't know this but there are things important to know." I nodded listening carefully to Felix.

"He will definitely fight back, you need to bring him out to us. The building is falling apart, don't worry it's due to collapse to structural integrity any day so if you cause it to fall that's fine. It won't hurt you too badly if it falls on you… It'll just hold you down, and he'll be able to get away. First and foremost it is your job to make sure he comes with us, any means necessary if he resists you have the authority to do irreparable damage… but only if completely necessary." I nodded as he completed his summary.

"Anything else I should know?" I said turning back before stepping in to the building." Felix shook his head and with a smile said.

"Have fun." I gave him an odd look.

"This is a playground for you, to test your strength your speed your power… You've never done any of those things before you were holed up in Volterra. You'll find you're much stronger and faster than you think." I nodded checking the door to the building it was locked. I looked back at Felix then back at the door ripping the door off its hinges. I stared at it for a moment, sure I could have done that as a human but that was too easy. I grabbed it and using all my power threw it straight in to the air. I stepped in to the building. I took in the scent, Yes there was a vampire here. I followed my nose and sprinted up the six floors to the middle of the open room, it was covered in every direction by walls to another room. No windows in the room he stood unmoving.

"Hmmm so you're who they sent to fetch me, I thought they'd send Felix or Demetri isn't that who they usually send for unjustified murder?" I was confused.

"No sir, Felix is waiting outside, I must bring you with me. You're being tried for a crime." He turned around and looked at me.

"Well well, Felix has a pupil? I can see you're nearly as big he is." He laughed coarsely.

"You might take me in for trial, but I will get none."

"And why do you perceive that?" I said asking him. he still wasn't in a fighting stance.

"My crime is letting a Human see what I was. And not killing her or turning her. Truly they came for her already…" It didn't seem so bad to me but Aro had told me how important it was to make sure no one ever saw us in our true form. No one must find out what we really are.

"If the human was taken care of I don't see any reason that you must die." He snarled at me

"Taken care of? You are just like one of them!" he said

"I didn't mean it like that!" I said before he launched himself at me his arms threw me through the wall and out the side of the building but I caught on to the edge of the building kicking in to the level below. I could hear his feet I jumped in to the air and my hand went through the Ceiling. I caught his ankle and pulled him through the ground dropping him in front of me.

"That wasn't very nice." He looked up at me in awe.

"You just don't get it do you? I'm not coming with you alive." I shrugged. He jumped at me but this time I side stepped and threw him out the side of the building but caught his arm and pulled him back in and running him through another wall. I grappled with him tossing him up with all my strength through the ceiling and through the next ceiling to the roof. I jumped up to the top level where he laid.

"You're strong, Stronger then Felix I think… Yes… definitely stronger than Felix." I dusted some rubble off my shoulder. I reached for him and caught a hold but quickly his slipped out of my grasp. I reached for him again and he slipped away again. this time I got my hands around his throat he pushed his hands up between mine then delivered I try to grip with my feet and reach down digging my fingers in to the roof trying to avoid getting thrown off of it. I barely hold on by the edge of my finger tips. He was there in an instant.

"You haven't been a Vampire very long have you?" He said before stomping on my fingers. It hurt but I held on. I reached up grabbing his leg with my other hand and pulled myself up instantly. The momentum of it pulled him off the edge I caught him and wrapped my arms around him jumping in to the air and through the weak roof down three floors. He seemed dazed for a moment then I ran in to the wall and heard a loud cracking giving me an idea. I quickly ran through the wall four times in different places. I ran out of the side of the building deciding against using the door and stopped in front of Felix.

"You don't have him." I laughed. As the building collapsed completely within itself I climbed on top of the rubble and grabbed an arm and pulled him out of the building wrapping my around him in a restraining fashion. I threw him at Felix. He fell to the ground unnaturally. He didn't try to save himself. He didn't put his arms out to stop his fall. Felix threw him over his shoulder. I gave him an odd look.

"Alec's ability." He said answering the question in my eyes. I nodded and followed him.

We traveled back to Volterra, but instead of traveling to the center of the city we went to the west side outside there was an old coliseum. I followed Felix inside and he dropped the vampire in front of me on the ground. I turned around looking at the stands… it was filled with Vampires. I recognized most of them as Vulturi. Aro stood at the focal point smiling with Marcus and Caius flanking him. Felix and Alec ran up to their positions at the guard. Aro spoke in a voice not too much louder than his normal speech knowing full well we could hear him. I was standing across from him, the vampire I captured.

"Denzel, isn't it?" Aro asked with a calm smile on his face.

"Yes, it's Denzel. I suppose I should thank you for sending Alec instead of Jane." His comment was met with a smile from Jane.

"So why didn't you just send Alec in, what was with the theatrics? And who is this one I don't recognize him, he wasn't here five years ago when I passed through…" he said turning back to me.

"I think I would have remembered him." Aro chuckled.

"You are quite right Denzel, He is a new recruit." Denzel's eyes turned to me then back to Aro.

"I was his first mission." Aro nodded.

"I don't know if I should be honored or insulted. Get on with your verdict, I know you'll find me guilty, enough with the pageantry and fake justice system." Aro seemed unfazed by his insults.

"You've been found with a human, whom with you shared our secret." He nodded rolling his eyes.

"And I believe you took her, so no foul?" Aro nodded. He turned to his two confidants. He spoke in hushed tones I couldn't hear. Aro smiled.

"She was fed to one of our pupils to sustain him." Aro said. Denzel's body tightened then rippled slightly as he flexed his entire body. Aro seemed extremely amused.

"We'll give you a chance to survive even though we should give you a swift death for the blatant violation of our one rule." Denzel snorted next to me.

"If you want to live, you must kill Ulrich, the man across from you." I was more surprised than he was. I took a step back trying to hide it. He laughed. He came to face me in a causal stance.

"Oh, Denzel there was one more thing…" Aro said as if forgetting something important. Denzel didn't look at Aro this time his attention was on me…

"That man standing across from you, Ulrich. He's the one who sucked the blood from your human."

OHHH I'm sorry that's kind of a cliff hanger but since NO ONE READS THIS it won't be too bad… *sigh* I want more than two people reading this… Oh well. Leave reviews and shit… I'm out
