Chapter 6

Bella's Prospective

All the pain stopped. All the burning went away but I didn't want to open my eyes. I spoke instead. "Edward..." I paused to see if he answered. He didn't so I tried something different. "Where am I?" I asked hoping someone would answer me because I didn't want to open my eyes just yet.

"Bella? Bella, are you awake?" Alice answered.

Yes. Alice where is Edward? How am I still alive?" I paused and then open my eyes and sitting up in shock. "Who changed me Alice?"

"Edward did. Bella he had no choice. You were dead for a second there." She stumbled together.

I could tell that she was hiding something from me. "Alice, what is wrong?"

"Bella, are you feeling okay?"

"Alice, I feel fine. Why should I not?"

"Bella……you were only out for a day and a half. That's not normal. We have no choice but to take you to the volturi."

"Does Edward know about this? Is he okay with this? When are we going to the volturi?"

"Whoa, Bella calm down." Alice soothed. "Edward doesn't know and we are not going to tell him."

"Why?" I asked confused.

"Because knowing Edward he would flip out. We are going to take you there and we're gonna try to get there and back as fast as possible." Carlisle told me.

"How are we gonna get there?" I asked.

"We're running silly." Alice said. If I was human my heart would've stopped. Oh no I hate running.

When we got to the volturi

I made it there with only a couple of trips (I guess something's just stay with you). We walked to the front desk.

"We're here to see Aro." Carlisle said. The girl at the front desk nodded and then Jane walked in.

"The Cullen's, what a good surprise," Jane said. She paused and looked at me. "Bella, isn't it? Aro will be glad to see you."

"Good because we're here to see him." I said. She led us the way down a hallway to the doors of Aro's office.

"Wait here while I go tell him you're here." Jane said. She walked in and we heard Aro shout 'Well let them in'. Jane opened the door and we walked in.

"Bella and the Cullen's what a pleasant surprise to see you here." Aro said.

"Well we are here on business rather then pleasure sadly." Carlisle responded. "Something strange happened during Bella's transformation. She was only out for a day and a half. I know it has happened before but what does it mean? What is wrong with her?"

"I rather that the vampire it has happened to, tell you himself. In a matter of fact he is coming in a few days. Until then Bella may stay here."

Carlisle looked at me saying that I get to answer. I didn't want to stay away from Edward even for that long but I wanted to know what was wrong with me. "I guess a few days won't hurt," I said.

"Good. We'll have your room ready in a couple of minutes. While we're waiting I would like to try something. If that is okay with you?" Aro said.

"Sure….why not?" I answered.

"Great. Jane come over here. I want to know if you power can work on Bella now." Jane smiled when she heard that.

"It's worth a shoot," Jane said.

I looked at Alice and Carlisle's faces. They were full of fear. "Let's get this over with" I said. Aro smiled and nodded to Jane. She looked at me and in a few seconds she concentrated to make me think I was in pain. Something happened and all of a sudden Jane was on the floor.

"Make it stop Aro. It hurts so much." Jane yelled and Aro looked at me.

I turned to look at Carlisle but before I could Aro ran up to me. "What did you do?" Aro asked.

"I don't know. I thought you knew what happened." I answered. Jane stopped yelling and got up.

"What the heck happened Aro? One minute I was trying to make her think she was in pain the next I'm the one in pain." Jane asked.

All eyes were now on me. Like I knew what was going here. "Stop looking at me like that. I don't know what is going on." I screamed at them.

"I think I know what her power is now, but I would like to run one more test." Aro said. "Maybe I can read her mind now."

"Well, go ahead and try." I said.

'What is going through Bella's mind? Looks like I can only read my mind.' Aro thought.

"How do you know if you are talking not trying?" I replied.

"Bella, he didn't say anything." Alice told me.

"Bella, I know your power for sure now. Which will explain everything." Aro started. "Your power is……"
