CHAPTER 12: Alec
I'm atop of the highest building in Seattle. I smirk to myself as I watch the little dots that are humans bustle about, way below me. how ironic that the newborn army that we were sent to exterminate just a short time ago were based in this same city.
"I remember you. Huh, I didn't know that you ranked so far up in the army." Says a familiar voice.
"Elise." I say flatly without turning around. I can practically hear her smirk as she steps directly into my line of sight. "No 'hi' or 'how are you doing'? So cold." She pouts. Her hands wrap around my shoulders, and begin to play with the hair at the nape of my neck.
And I can't help but wish that she was here and in Elise's place.
"Elise." Someone behind us snaps. "Aro says for you to take Demitri on a scouting mission. You're to be back by dusk tomorrow."
Elise's eyes narrow slightly, but she nods curtly and stalks off into the shadows, after shooting me a longing glance.
"Elsie." My sister repeats. She turns and glances back at her warily. Sister reaches into her own charcoal cloak, and brings out a slate coloured one, and drapes it over Elise's shoulders despite her surprised expression.
"Welcome to our ranks." For a second, I see sister's expression soften, and I am tempted to rub my eyes, because her gaze has never soften. Not at me. not at Elijah, nor anyone else in the Volturi.
"I've never seen you look at anyone like that sister." I comment lightly, after Elise has walked out of hearing distance.
She sends me a quick stab of pain. "She's the sister of the Bree girl. Did you know?" I arch an eyebrow. "The girl from the new born army."
My eyes widen as I realize that she's right. Even though they are as different as the sun and moon, there are still many similarities. Their eye shape, their body language. Their last name. Alec you idiot!" I mentally scold myself. "Why did you accept her then? Doesn't she want to get revenge for her sister?"
Jane sighs. "Aro values her gift. She a good fighter as well." As she speaks about Elise, a soft and fond tone takes over her voice. And I resist an unbearable urge to lay the back of my hand on her forehead to make sure that she doesn't have a fever. But then again…Our kind cannot get sick.
"Do we have any orders from Aro? I ask, gazing across the skyline, as a plan begins to form in my head. I freeze and barely hear my sister responding to my question. This plan…is utter MADNESS. Extraordinarily dangerous, and will go up into smoke with one wrong move. But it can save her. a voice whispers, It'll save her life, and her coven's. Or are you willing to let her fate lay out without interfering? Alec are you insane? The voice of reason screams, This WILL cost you your life! Are you going to risk your whole existence over her? Yes… I find myself answering. I'm willing. She deserves so much more. And this is all that I can give her.
And so. I put my plan into motion. The final result: Renny will live. And I will most likely be dead.
yeah... please don't rip this one's head off for the ending...this one knows: cliff hangers suck...
