Chapter Twenty-Seven

Renesmee Cullen

It was one very long trip to Italy. We landed in Rome. If I wasn't in this situation, I would definitely stop and admire the beautiful city.

"Get inside, Renesmee," Nahuel said, putting a hand on my back and gently pushing me towards a long black car. I shuddered at his touch and went in silently. There was a dark shape, covered in a cloak, in the driver's seat while Nahuel sled beside me in the backseat.

"Listen, Nahuel," I said, quite rudely, "It seems like I'm going to have to deal with you for a long time, I just want to tell you something-" He was about to speak but I raised my finger up to stop him," Can you see this ring?" I asked, pointing at Jake's ring, "It would always be here, which means, in plain English, that you and I would never be together, not in your wildest dreams," I stated bluntly; I was in no good mood. His cold expression never changed though.

"We have forever to think about that." God! Seems like he's retarded as well. Well, no problem. I just huffed and tried to look from the side window but I was too distracted to do that.

We stopped in front of a dark alley after a long time.

"Welcome to Volterra," someone in a darker cloak said as I got out of the car, bowing in a gentlemanly manner. I just forced a smile as he stood up again. "I'm Frederick, Caius'," he paused looking for a word.

Nahuel completed the sentence for him,

"Psychic." He smirked.

His crimson red eyes sparkled against his extremely pale skin that contrasted with his dark brown hair.

"Hello," I whispered, looking at my feet as I entered the alley.

The three of them led me through dark hallways. They were so dark that if I was completely human, I wouldn't be able to recognize the dark green walls.

After about a whole minute of walking, we reached a dark office that had a human waiting behind a desk. Wait, a human?

Her skin was creamy, which went perfectly with her dark blond hair and blue eyes.

Nahuel must have noticed my confused look because he explained…

"Yes, she's a human, and the only one here, too. There was someone before her called Gianna, I think, but Felix 'accidently killed her'," he made quotation marks with his hands in the air as he whispered. I nodded, looking away.

"Hello, Adriana," Frederick greeted her, she smiled professionally.

"Hello, sir. Master Aro is waiting for you in the main room." He nodded as he motioned for me to join him. Nahuel was about to come, too, but Frederick stopped him.

"He wants us alone," he said firmly. He backed away easily and nodded, walking away to somewhere I didn't bother to look at.

We went inside the large, natural-lighted room which had 3 people inside; Aro, Felix and Demetri as I recall.

"Oh! Hello little Renesmee! Welcome here, sweetheart!" Ugh. I hated that extra-gentle tone. I just forced another smile. He stretched out his hand to shake mine but I knew better than to let him in my mind.

As our hands touched I began projecting thoughts into his head, random thoughts about school and hunting. He stared wide-eyed at me when I pulled away my hand.

"How did you do that? I could only see what you allowed me to see."

I just shrugged and smiled triumphantly.

"Oh! I see you again, Nessie!" I heard the voice that I recall clearly say as she entered the room. Sofia.

"Okay, so rule number one; nobody, and I repeat, nobody calls me Nessie," I said, setting my lips in a hard line. She rolled her eyes.

"I-" Aro cut her off.

"Of course." I was resisting the urge to, very maturely; stick my tongue out at her.

"Breakfast's here!" Felix announced, smiling hugely. Breakfast?

They drank human blood, right?

Uh-oh. I didn't think about that.

Seconds later, a tall, extremely beautiful vampire came inside, leading a bunch of guys with cameras and notebooks; tourists apparently.

They were talking in French, which I could easily understand. They were there on a trip; they thought it was some kind of an Italian museum held in an old castle or something like that. If they only knew…

As the door closed all six vampires lunged at them, sucking all their blood.

I had to hold my breath the whole time as my throat started to burn; I hadn't hunted in a very long time and human blood was utterly appealing at that moment.

I closed my eyes, too, to avoid the delicious scenery. I hated to admit that I really wanted to join them in that. But I remembered what Jasper had told me before…

Flashback

"Well, I had trouble coping with our, well, diet. Do you know what got me through that time?" I shook my head.

"You, Ness. Of course, Alice and Carlisle and the others were great help but when you came, I wasn't the one who had trouble with not drinking human blood. I'd decided that for you, I wouldn't even think about it again. Because if I didn't, you would've got hurt and I couldn't stand that. I discovered that all what I needed was someone I could do that for; Alice would've supported me in whatever decision I'd make, she helped me through the time before you were born but I did that for you, for you to stay alive. I hated the idea of you getting hurt because of me.

"Same with your case here; I know how much you love Jacob, how much you're attached to him. All what you need is to remember him. Remember that you're doing that for him. You know how much he hates the idea of you being a 'monster', sucking innocent people's blood. And so does your father, he has suffered a lot when your mother was human but he restrained himself for her. He also hates the idea of you drinking human blood…"

End Flashback

Yes, I would do that for Jake and Daddy, though they're not here, and I probably wouldn't see them again. But I owe them that much.

"I know about your diet, Renesmee, but, they are dead anyways. Why don't you try some?" Frederick said. I opened my eyes to find him wiping the last traces of blood from his lips and looking at me. I just shook my head and I heard him sigh.

Right afterward, they led me to my 'room' and left me there to 'rest'. The walls were light cream, the color I wanted to paint my house if I got married. Ugh; now I hate it. It had a king-sized bed, a wardrobe, a desk and a small couch.

I opened the wardrobe to find several outfits that I bet Alice would have screamed in horror if she ever saw me wear them and two dark gray cloaks, of course.

I changed to one of the pajamas there, it was of pink silk. They had known about that for a while, didn't they?

I found a phone on the nightstand and a little note beside it…

Welcome to Italy. Adriana would call when you're needed. Otherwise, you're free to wander around Volterra.

Of course! They had guard everywhere, right?

As I was about to sleep, or at least lie down, I heard a light knock on the door.

"Yes?" I said; I hadn't trusted anyone there enough to let them in without knowing who they were. Just, please don't be Nahuel; I hate him enough.

"It's Frederick, Renesmee, can I come in?" What would the psychic want?

"Come in." It sounded more like a question. I sat on the edge of my bed and waited for him as he entered the room and closed the door behind him. I looked at him questioningly; it wasn't like we were friends or something that he could come here any time he wants.

"I just want to ask you about something," he whispered. This was getting weird; what would he want to ask me about? I nodded; not in the mood to talk. "Why do you only hunt animals?" He cocked his head to one side. I sighed.

"Because we feel that it's cruel and merciless to suck human blood, it's a matter of morals more than anything else; we don't want to be monsters when we can be good people," I explained automatically, playing with a strand of my hair and looking at the ground. I glanced at him when he didn't answer for long, he seemed deep in thought. "Why did you ask?" I asked, curious. He snapped his head in my direction.

"I was changed during one of those 'meals', Caius wanted to try to create an immortal-" He rolled his eyes," I didn't have much of a choice. That was the life they told me was available. But when I saw you restrain yourself, Aro explained that your family only hunts animals. I was curious why you do that," he explained, still whispering," That would be an interesting thing to try." I nodded." One more thing, though."

"Yes?"

"How did you prevent Aro from reading your thoughts?" I rolled my eyes.

"I only showed him what I wanted him to see." He had a dumbfounded expression on his face.

"How so?" I sighed.

"I can project thoughts to people. It's a gift," I told him in a 'duh' tone. He approached me.

"Can you show me?" he asked, his eyes eager. I put my palm on his cold cheek and thought about the plane, knowing that Aro would see anything I'd show him. His eyes widened as he watched.

"Wow."

"Now it's my turn to ask," I said. He nodded.

"How does your gift work?"

He sat down next to me.

"I see the future, the definite future. But only the things connected to Caius. For example, I saw you come here. That's why none of them went to Washington to offer you and several members of your family a place between us." Ah. Wait, 'offer'?

"Offer?" He looked at me with confused eyes.

"Yes, offer. Why?" He was still confused. I chuckled humorlessly.

"I was everything but offered to come here. I would rather be with my family now." I sighed internally; I missed them terribly already. He was still confused. Idiot; haven't they told him anything? "They told me that for 'my beloved ones safety' I'd better come here." His brows furrowed.

"Didn't Sofia ask you to come?"

"Ask?" I snorted, "Yeah, right." I put my hand on his cheek again and showed him everything.

"I wonder why she did that…" he mumbled, trailing off. Then, it clicked.

She wanted to kill me. She promised Aro to get me or no one else would have me.

She didn't expect me here, did she? Even after Frederick's visions?

She wanted me to refuse. She wanted to have some 'help' from here to kill me.

I growled in anger. She was a sick excuse for a creature.

And, of course, Nahuel helped her, but for another reason; to have me.

Oh God. I'm so stupid!

"Will you excuse me? I have to talk to Aro," he mumbled.

"No. Don't!" I half-yelled, grabbing his stone arm. "Don't tell him. Not yet. I don't think I would be allowed out of here now, Sofia would take that chance to kill me," I rushed through the words. He nodded in understanding and sighed.

"Well, then, Welcome to Italy." Yeah, seems like I'm totally stuck here. It's not like I didn't know that before.

As soon as he went out, I headed to my new bed. I knew Alice would see me now. I just hoped they wouldn't follow me.

I thought about Jacob, everything about him. I missed his flashing smile, his eyes, his laugh, his voice…everything.

I hoped he would listen to me, too; it would be a suicide mission to come here to get me back.

I looked at my diamond ring, my so-called 'engagement ring'. It's not like I'm getting married. But, now I have three things to remember Jacob with; his bracelet, his charm and his ring.

I touched Daddy and Momma's locket with my right hand and let out a tear as I drifted to sleep.

I woke up on a ring of my new phone. I answered it almost immediately, reluctantly though; why would they need me now?

"Good morning, Renesmee." Morning? What day was that? Oh, yeah, Friday. I haven't slept much, apparently.

"'Morning," I said when Adriana said nothing.

"Master Alec told me to tell you that they need you in the main room in a few," she informed, automatically. I nodded but then realized she couldn't see me.

"Alright. I'll be there." With my memory, I know where the main room is.

Alec and Jane were those disastrous twins, weren't they? Yeah; Alec 'blocked' senses and Jane made people suffer. Ugh.

I changed into the same outfit that I was wearing a few hours ago and put on one of those cloaks, putting the hood up though I, technically, didn't need it.

I looked at my feet as I went inside the room, Jane, Sofia, Nahuel and Frederick right behind me.

"Here you are, sweetheart!" I hate you, Aro. I really do. Even if you had no role in forcing me into this. I still hate you!

"Yes," what did they call him, leech? Bloodsucker? Parasite? Oh, right; Master, "master?" I choked, my voice strangled.

It was funny how I thought I could smell my family there, and Jake's musky scent, too. Wow. I'm imagining things already. I kept my head to the ground. I snapped it up immediately when I heard Jane's words though…

"The shield's here," she muttered grudgingly. A shield? Momma's here?

I saw them all; Carlisle, Esme, Momma, Daddy, Jasper, Alice, Emmett and Rosalie. I froze when I saw the last one though…

Jacob was there.

I had to take in to sharp breaths to prevent myself from crying; they would all see.

I walked towards him, not caring about the stares I felt on my back, and touched his cheek with my palm.

Why, Jake? Why did you come? Jacob, please, please, take them all and go back home. It's enough that I'm here, and they wouldn't let me go alive. Please?

I heard Daddy growl furiously a few feet away. I gulped; I just hoped they wouldn't fight right there and then.

Nessie, I'm not going anywhere without you now! Did you lose your mind on your way here or what? Oh, right; you lost it way before that, when you first agreed to this nonsense! I could already feel the anger in his thoughts that I backed away, looking at the ground.

"Enough with this crap! Renesmee is coming home with us now whether you like it or not!" Emmett snapped. Aro's eyes widened at his tone while Sofia smirked.

"I'm afraid this is not an option, gentlemen," Caius said as he entered the room with Marcus. Marcus stopped immediately as he got in and his ever-bored expression turned to an amazed one. I never thought it was even possible.

I looked at Daddy, confused.

"He never thought there is a relationship as strong as yours and Jacob's," he explained through clenched teeth.

"Anyways-" Momma cut Caius off.

"And why is this 'not an option'?" she crossed her arms over her chest.

"Simply, Bella, dear, because I would just kill her. You wouldn't want that, would you?" Sofia asked, still smirking.

"You want a fight, you get one!" Jacob growled, shaking.

"Jacob," Carlisle whispered, putting a hand on his shoulder, he turned his head to Caius' direction," I would appreciate it if we don't have to fight now, but she's coming home with us," he said with finality. I was surprised by his slightly-angry tone and his restrained expression.

Jane and Sofia glanced quickly at each other and Sofia nodded.

In less than a second, Daddy lost his control over his anger and lunged at Sofia.

"Don't you think of even touching my daughter," he hissed. At that same moment, while everybody was distracted by this little move, I felt my whole body burn.

I fell on the ground, screeching at the top of my lungs; I felt every tiny part of me burn slowly, giving me no time to even breathe. I knew this was Jane's doing but I couldn't think properly.

Suddenly, it all stopped and I stood up easily again, as if there weren't any fire in the first place.

I glanced around me to find Momma by my side, rubbing my back but focusing on Daddy and Jake who were fighting.

Daddy ripped Sofia off in a speed that she couldn't stop him. Soon enough, she was a burning pile of ashes. I gulped, knowing that I was almost as strong as her…and there were a lot of full vampires here.

I saw Jacob in his wolf form fighting with Jane, who, apparently, had no fighting skills whatsoever. It looks like Momma has her shield up now.

He was about to rip her arm off when Alec interfered, growling and aiming at Jake's neck.

I knew what venom did to wolves…

I couldn't let that happen. I knew there was a pretty good chance that I would get hurt, or probably even killed in the process but all I needed to do is distract them. Yes, I would definitely get hurt…

I. Don't. Care!

I ran, full speed towards them, doing my best to push Alec off Jake as he continued ripping Jane apart.

Emmett and Jasper were preventing the guard from getting involved in the small fight there, along with Alice and Rosalie.

Daddy and Momma took me off their way as they helped Jake. While Frederick, Nahuel, Aro, Caius and Marcus backed away, afraid, apparently. I wondered whether it was genuine or just Jasper's doing.

Esme and Carlisle were standing right next to each other. It all took mere seconds.

"Stop!" Carlisle yelled, causing everyone to freeze.

Momma, Daddy and Jake were able to kill Jane, Alec backed away as his injuries were healing, his head down.

"We really don't want this to get bigger than it already is. We would like to take Renesmee home with us now," Carlisle said, mainly speaking to Caius who still looked afraid. Definitely Jasper.

"Of course. This was just a simple misunderstanding." Shut up, Aro! Cut the freakin' crap!

"But-" Aro cut Caius off, putting a hand on his chest.

"No," he said with finality. I smiled genuinely for the first time in about a week.

"Then we shall go," Carlisle said, motioning for us to leave.

I looked at Jacob, who rather looked smug, and smiled.

My head started to swirl, I didn't know if it was due to the fact that I haven't hunted nor eaten in a long time or because I was finally relieved; I was going home and everything would be back to normal.

I glanced a last glance at my family and gave in to what my body wanted the most now.

Right then, everything went black.

Okay, so
