Title: Izy Volturi

Chapter three: Powers.


Jasper Pov:

After a while, I got uncomfortable. Everyone's emotions were getting to me, and somehow Izy understood, because she turned to glare at everyone.

''Yes, Niamh's powers are rather special,'' She said to Carlisle and Emmett. ''Yes, I'm certain she gets this attention a lot.'' She motioned to Alice and Esme. ''And yes, she can indeed get a vampire pregnant.'' She told Rosalie.

She smiled softly at me before turning towards Marcus and Caius, who'd been watching it with smirks.

Caius nodded without having to be told anything and motioned for everyone to sit down. Once we were all seated, he started to talk.

''As Isabella said, Niamh can change vampires into humans, though only temporarily.'' He started.

''In 1876, Marcus and I met Isabella on the streets. Her mother had just died, and she walked up to us, told us she knew we were vampires, and threatened to tell everyone.

''Of course, we could have easily killed her, until she showed us her power.''

As everyone turned to look at Izy, a little bird flew into her hand. When she looked up, her eyes were slightly unfocused.

''I can control the mind,'' she muttered, allowing the bird to fly towards Amilyn. ''Humans' and animals'. I can make you see things you've never seen, forget things so normal that you've never thought them. I can make you do things that you think are unforgivable and I can make you forgive yourself for them.

''My power is actually physical, we've discovered.'' She frowned softly. ''I don't change your thoughts; I actually change the way your brain works, and I can change it back.

''I can make you see things so scary you'll run away, screaming, or things so sweet you won't want to move.''

She looked up, and there was a pang of sadness only I could feel echo around the room. ''I can make you forget how to breath, or how to notice when you're hungry.''

But although only I could feel her emotions, everyone in the room could see it in her eyes. The desperate longing, the hope that we won't be frightened.

''I can alter a vampire's powers,'' she continued softly. ''Make them as harmless as a fly's wings. I can change anything to do with the mind.''

Marcus put a calming hand on her shoulder. ''She showed us this by making the whole town move. Imagine, a little five year old girl with the strength to stop nearly 200 people.''

''We took her in, obviously.'' Caius interrupted with a fond smile. ''And we taught her everything we knew. When she turned seventeen, her birthday present was being changed.''

''Eleven years later she became our Princess, and my daughter.'' Marcus smiled, happiness shining in his eyes and his emotions.

''That's a beautiful story,'' Esme muttered, smiling happily. ''But it doesn't explain why Bella was here.''

Izy sighed. ''There is a vampire in the Volturi called Eleanor.'' she stared at her hands. ''She has the power of Truth. When you ask her a question, you will her the absolute truth.

''Two years ago, three nomads crossed through our city. They came to the castle, delivering a threat from the Romanians. These nomads were James, Laurent and Victoria.''

My family gasped, but Izy paid no heed. ''After they left, we asked Eleanor whether or not the nomads would be a threat. We got two answers; a yes, and a no.

''This happens when the truth is not set in stone, but there is a possibility of two options.

''Eleanor said they would be a threat were we to do nothing; to let the matter rest and focus on the Romanians. We would survive, but harmed, and unable to defend ourselves properly.

''She also said the would be allies rather than foes if we could help the redhead find her true mate. This mate would have been waiting for her since his change, but because of the wait, he would have forgotten what love feels like, and when he sees her, he would not recognize the frantic beating of his undead heart as the feeling of romance.

''So before he saw his mate, he would have to be reminded what it is like to love.''

I felt a spike of understanding, and heard Carlisle breath out Edward's name.

''I altered Charlie's mind to see me as his daughter. Niamh changed me into a human again, and right before I stepped on the plane, I changed my own mind very specifically; I would only remember who I was when either Edward left me, or Mirre would tell me. No one else.''

Esme sobbed and threw herself at Izy. ''Thank you.'' she muttered, hugging her. ''Thank you so much.''

''Can I change her back now?'' Niamh ruined the moment. ''I'm getting tired of human Izy.''

After Esme pulled back, Izy lay down on the couch and nodded.

''Vampirize me, Niamh,'' She grinned and closed her eyes.

Niamh put her hand on Izy forehead, closed her eyes, and we could all see a bright red light surrounding her hand.

And then I felt it. Terribly familiar and extremely painful. I was changing again, I thought, my hands ruined the armrest of my chair.

And then Izy's brown eyes opened and focused on my golden ones. I felt her presence in my mind, rooting me to the spot, before slowly erasing the pain, even as brown turned to ruby red and pale skin turned paler. My hands slowly unclenched, and then the feeling was gone entirely, but Izy wasn't finished changing. Little, unnoticeable flaws were still disappearing. Slowly, the red light sank into the human I could still call Bella and changed her into a strong vampire whom the name Bella just did not fit.

Izy.

Izy Pov:

The pain was excruciating. Changing back took less time, but was twice as painful. Through the painful thoughts that clouded my mind and cleared it at the same time, I realized Jasper must feel the same.

I forced myself to open my eyes and lock onto Jasper's, jumping into his mind like I'd done so many times but this time was so much more painful, because my body was burning like I'd landed in hell and my mind desperately wanted to go back to my body to protect it from the flames that had to be eating it away inch by inch.

Finally I found the line that was Jasper's gift, and I altered it until he could no longer feel my pain. I quickly jumped back into my own body. The pain was deafening, blinding, I felt like Alec was using his power on me, but at least Alec wouldn't have let me feel the flames that were changing my very DNA.

And then, so suddenly it took me a while to discover that it had, in fact, stopped, the pain went away.

The first thing I heard was Niamh screaming.

''IZY, YOU'RE BACK!''
