Chapter 4: Escape and Recapture
When Sarah woke up, she found herself in a dungeon-like room. Across from her stood two figures that wore black hooded cloaks. One of them was smirking at her while scanning her body with his eyes.
"Take a picture, it lasts longer," hissed Sarah.
"There's no need to. You will be living here, with us, from now on," said the one with the smirk.
"That's what you think—" Sarah stated to say, than she heard his thoughts. His thoughts were so perverted that she didn't want to spend much time in his head.
Sarah flashed him a look of disgust, than watched as his face went from confusion, to realization, than embarrassment. Sarah just stared at him with a look that said: wow, you're even stupider than you look. Than she started laughing.
"Come on, Alec, let go get Aro," said the girl that was with him.
"Bye," Sarah said mockingly with an overly sarcastic, seductive wave. He stomped off while the girl stayed behind. Then, a horrible pain, almost as bad as being turned, shot through her body.
"I don't know what you did to get Alec so pissed, and I really don't care. But, if you ever do it again, I will personally kill you." With that, the girl left and Sarah's pain began to die down until it was gone completely. She heard footsteps coming towards her. Sarah struggled to get up off of the floor, but fell back down in pain.
'Don't move, I'll help you,' Sarah heard Jasper think. Jasper knocked down the cell door and bent down to Sarah's level.
"I know you're in pain, but please bare with me. At least until we get back home," said Jasper as he picked her up bridal-style. Sarah winced in pain and let out a small whimper. Jasper looked down at her, both worry and sympathy clear in his eyes.
Jasper ran back to the house with Sarah faster than he had ever run before. Once they got to the house, Jasper jumper through his bedroom window and put Sarah on his bed. Within seconds, Carlisle and another male vampire were in the room.
'Keep Jasper in here. I'll take Sarah outside. She's bleeding a lot, I don't understand how Jasper made it all the way here without draining her,' thought Carlisle to the other male. Moments later, Sarah was being picked up and carried out to the dew covered lawn.
Sarah's body began to shake violently. Her eyes flew open only to reveal blood-red slits surrounded by blackness. Carlisle laid her down on the grass. Suddenly, a black flame-like aura seeped up through the grass and engulfed Sarah. Then, Sarah started hovering higher and higher until she was floating over one hundred yards in the air. A horrific tearing sound erupted from her back and screams of pain flowed from her mouth. Then, out of her shoulder blades, emerged two blood-soaked, body-length, silver wings. She screamed louder, the sound of glass shattering in the distance was enough to bring Carlisle out of his trance long enough to see Jasper running towards Sarah's now rapidly descending body.
"Jasper look out!" yelled Carlisle as he ran to pull his 'son' out of the way. Sarah hit the ground with a sickening thud. When the cloud of smoke and debris cleared finally cleared, the family looked down into the newly formed crater to see Sarah's angelic body crumpled in a pool of blood at the bottom. Sarah, however, looked completely different. A long white robe covered her skin and a silver chain collar graced her neck. Her now long black hair had dazzling silver streaks and was spread like a fan around her body.
Jasper quickly freed himself from his 'father's' grasp and ran towards Sarah.
"Sarah, can you hear me?" questioned Jasper as he knelt down next to her body. Sarah responded by groaning, sitting up, and opening her eyes. Just like in the vision, they changed from blood red to an astonishing silver.
"Jasper?" questioned Sarah, looking around wearily. Then, without warning, Jasper picked her up in her arms and held her close.
"I'm so glad you're alright," he said. Suddenly, Sarah's body went tense.
"Jasper," she whispered, "run!"
Over the top of the crater, Sarah spotted Alec and the girl that had caused her far too much pain. But now they were accompanied by three other men, all dressed in fine robes and looked like the leaders of the group. Sarah squirmed out of Jasper's grasp and stared, horror-struck, at the rapidly approaching group. She transformed, turned around, and ran into the woods. Then, Sarah felt the astonishing pain hit her again as she fell to the forest floor, screams of pain emanating from her mouth. Within seconds, the Cullen's and the other group were at her sides.
"Aro! Please restrain Jane!" shouted Carlisle to one of the three leaders.
"Jane," Aro briefly glanced at the girl. The pain started to die down a bit. Sarah tried to get up, but failed, only having enough energy to change back into her vampiric form. Jasper knelt down beside her and picked her up, bringing her over to Carlisle, all the while sending Jane death glares. If looks could kill, she would be six feet under for sure. Sarah was curled up, clinging onto Jasper's shirt, trying to get rid of the pain.
"What is your name, child?" asked Aro. Sarah did not say anything; she just buried her face further into Jasper's chest. The pain came back as Jane spoke.
"I believe Aro asked for your name," she said in a menacing tone.
"Sarah!" she screamed in pain, "my name is Sarah."
'If Jane hurt you again, I think I'll lose it. We have to get out of here now.' Thought Jasper. Sarah nodded in agreement with his silent words. As soon as Jasper turned around to run, everything went numb. The last thing she saw was Jasper falling to the ground with her in his arms.
