Lunar's Note: I'm super sorry for the whole entire delay of not updating in such a long time. You have no idea how this chapter got to me. At first I wanted to do this chapter as the fourth chapter, but I didn't want to venture out of the promise I made to you all last chapter. Hopefully I have fulfilled your need of interesting and exciting in this chapter. If not, do tell me, I'll make it up promise! And without further ado, here is chapter three: Daughter!
Full Summary of Arabella Serene Volturi: Bella has been keeping a secret from the Cullen's. She isn't who she says she is. Rather, her name isn't Isabella Marie Swan; no, it's Arabella Serene Volturi. So what is her real identity then? Princess Arabella of Volturi, mate of Alec.

"Bella…no!" Alice barely had time to shout out.
Before Alice had shouted, I was well aware that I had managed to push Edward off of me, as I ran towards Alec. My eyes swarmed with tears as I reached him.
"Alec…" I mumbled out, falling to my knees. Watching him closely, as his head turned slightly towards my direction. I watched as he grimaced in pain from the movement.
"Ara…?" I nodded my head, sobbing silently to myself. Silently, I wished that it was me in his position, so I wouldn't see him hurt.
"Arabella move out of the way." Gritting my teeth, I gazed my eyes upon my uncle Aro.
"The mission is over. He is hurt!" I choked back a sob as I said this, "I am NOT moving, uncle!" I shouted at him, slowly standing up; despite the fact that I would rather be by my mate's side, comforting him.
"That is an order!" My uncle Aro shouted at me.
I took a step back, rarely he shouted at me. Much less lose his temper with me. I felt all eyes on me, watching for my next move.
"You are not my father need I remind you that?" I hissed out. I was playing on dangerous territory right now, but I honestly didn't care. No one was about to make me move away from my injured mate. My uncle growled at me for the response that I gave him. In return, I glared at him.
"Be wise and remember who you are talking to my daughter." My father coldly spoke up. Ah, I see…my father is with my uncle on the order. Not with me, his daughter. Of course, he would side with his brother.
I hissed in anger. "Be wise and remember who you are dealing with!" I shouted. I rarely ever stood up to my father and that was only when he angered me to a point of me wanting to go kill a random human. Harsh as that may seem, he needs to know that I'm his daughter, not one of the guards.
In the background, I could hear both Alice and Edward whisper out, "Daughter?" This was going to be one explanation that I would rather not give. But I ignored them for right now.
I kept my eyes leveled with my father as he stood up to approach me. I heard growls at his movement; I knew those growls came from both Edward and Alec.
As my father, Caius approached me, I never once backed down. Inward though, I knew I was going to be in some deep trouble. I wasn't in my regular form; I was still in my human form, something that may just cause a huge dilemma on my part.
"Care to repeat, what you just said daughter?" Caius spoke silently.
I gulped something that seemed to make my father smirk at. Standing up straight, I reinforced my stare on him. "Yes. I would just love to repeat what I said, father. But first…" I trailed off, closing my eyes, as I concentrated on my powers.
A sudden shock past through my body as I felt my body become what I truly was suppose to be: a vampire. As I opened my eyes, I smirked at my father who looked somewhat frightened. He should be! I thought to myself.
You see my powers are not something you should mess with. Yes, that is right, I said powers. I'm special, so says my uncle Aro. I don't just have one power but several.
One of my powers is being shield. I've always had a shield over my mind, hence why Edward could never read it. I preferred it that why actually, there was just too many secrets that ran through my mind each day that I rather him not knowing. If he ever did find them out, then my mission would have been blown.
Another one of my powers was that I had the ability to change my appearance (i.e human, vampire, etc.) and act more human if I wanted too. I mostly only used this specific power for missions though, I normally would call certain appearances forms, since I used them more often than creating a whole other identity.
Although, with my current mission, I had to actually be a human, meaning that I had to sleep like a human, eat like a human, and so forth. Do you realize how hard it is for me to use these powers every moment on a 24-hour basis? Just because a certain bronzed vampire took a liking to me? It was a wonder how I ever managed!
And my last power is being a controller. What that basically means is that I can control any being that I so fit. I could control my uncle Aro, if I wanted to. Actually, only recently I've discovered that I could control the elements and some parts of nature too (i.e plants, trees, etc.). It does come in handy every now and then. But I rarely use my controlling power.
But back to the situation in hand, I was currently glaring at my father.
"You wouldn't dare use your powers on me." He growled out.
My black eyes stared blankly at him. "Are you sure about that, father?" I hissed at him.
"Enough of this!" Uncle Aro shouted out, tired of the foolish that both my father and I were currently showing.
"Enough? Enough!" I shouted out, looking ready to attack him, as I fell into an attack stance.
"Ara!" Jane hissed out, as I turned my head towards her. I could tell she was worried for my safety. My emotions softened a bit as I stared at her and the one that claimed my heart so long ago.
"Ara, baby…" Alec whispered out, but I knew everyone in the room heard him. "D-don't do this. J-just…back…down…" He choked out. My eyes welled up with tears full of venom as he said this. I was so worried about being near my mate, that I hadn't realized I was hurting him in the process.
With that lone thought in my head, I turned and looked around the throne room. If my powers reacted, that way I wanted to react—meaning vicious, I could have ended up hurting everyone in the room. As I thought that, I did the only thing I could do. I ran. I ran out of sight, out of the castle and into Volterra.

Was it up to satisfaction? I had such a hard time trying to think of powers. I wanted Bella's powers to be creative, but yet I put myself in a bad position in saying that she had many forms in the past two chapters. So I had to work around that but not only that, I had to add in that she still was a shield, no matter which way we put it. Then I sat with my brother and thought about powers and we decided maybe controlling would be a cool power for her to have, so pretty much that's where the controlling power came from.
