Hey sorry!
Fine I'll tell you but no one can know. Uncle Aro already knows but he promised not to tell. Anyway where was I . . . I told Uncle Aro to kill me instead of them because I love Edward."
Bella POV
My sisters were just sitting there, in complete shock.
They didn't realize I grew up over the past 18 years or that Edward touched my heart.
After 5 minutes I was seriously bored and annoyed. I still had on the same clothes and wearing the same underwear for 4 days is pretty gross.
Finally Jane and Heidi seemed to get out of their shock.
"What?" Jane seemed shocked.
"I said I love Edward." The tone of my voice could be used on a 5 year old.
Jane mock glared at me but before she could say anything Heidi voiced her thoughts.
"Bella what do you mean 'you love Edward'"
Was it really that hard to get?
"I mean I LVOE EDWARD!! Now can I please change? I have been wearing these clothes for 4 days now. It is not comfortable and kinda gross." That seemed to bring Heidi back to why we had come here in the first place.
"I am going to find the pranksters and Alec. They will be happy you are home"
With that Jane rushed out of the room happy to bring back Volturi's very own pranksters.
"Come on Bella. I have exactly what you need. But not in my closet." With that she led me out of the room and after she closed her door led me down a familiar hallway.
There were no portraits on the wall like there used to be but I kept on getting flickers. Flickers of times long past.
Flashback
I was running through the hallway when I came across a portrait of a beautiful woman. She looked like I had seen her somewhere before.
I thought hard and then pulled out my locket. I opened it up and looked at my mom in the picture. It was the same women. I never knew that my mom was so pretty. Or that I had the same color eyes as her.
"That's your mom." Daddy's voice came from behind me.
End of flashback
"Where are the portraits?" I asked as we came by the place where my mom's portrait used to be.
Heidi was sad for a moment but remembered I was home so she was happy quickly again.
"Too much reminders" Ah. Yes my dad was already hurting.
"I think thought they are going to be hung up again. I mean you are home. And of course you have to get your own portrait."
The guards that were passing us were looking at Heidi like she was crazy. The guards seemed unfamiliar so I concluded they were new or away on long term mission at the time I was here the last time.
I listened to their whispers.
"Who is she . . . what is she doing with Heidi . . . Heidi seems happy somehow . . . I wonder what has gotten into her . . .when is the next fishing arriving." I barely suppressed a hiss at that last comment.
I still couldn't believe my family did that.
As if sensing my anger Heidi murmured to me, "Don't worry, going back remember?"
The guards obviously didn't hear that.
We kept on walking down the familiar hallway, ignoring the strange glances, or glares I was getting from everyone. I wasn't mad at them. They didn't know, yet.
We finally stopped.
In front of me was a huge wooden door, it was a mahogany color with beautiful inscriptions.
I was beyond shocked.
Without saying another word Heidi opened the doors.
"WOW" Was all that left my mouth as I stared at the room in awe. It was huge, beautifully decorated with flowers and soft blues.
On one corner was a library full of books, across from that was a huge bed with a soft blue and cream bed spread. It looked very comfortable. Although I was a vampire I still had human habits.
Heidi was looking at me in anticipation; I suddenly realized this was MY room and that SHE had decorated it for me.
"Thanks Heidi." I said as I hugged her.
Just then I heard light footsteps. Not as light as Janey's but a lot lighter than any guard except Alec.
When I got out of Heidi's embrace I looked Alec in the face.
He was like my best friend. But right now he was glaring at not only me but Heidi to.
In a second Heidi was on the floor, not moving, breathing, or even looking alive.
I just kept on looking at Alec. He was shocked to see me still standing while his sister's powers had worked on me before.
He started to come closer. When he was just an inch from my face he started yelling. He seemed to pour all the hate and pain into his voice.
"You filthy little human! I have no idea what you did to make Heidi take you to this room but it is DEFINETLY not yours. It is or was the real Bella's. She was the most loving, caring, selfless, energetic and nice person I have ever known. Just because you have her name you are not her. I hate you! I hate you because you are human. A weak pathetic little human." I winced as I heard his words but he had to get his anger out sometime. If he kept on building it up major consequences would come for him.
He backed up and closed the door. He turned around and the look in his eyes truly frightened me.
His eyes were full of loathing. He loathed me because I had the same name as his Bella.
He pounced on me but before he could even touch me he was on the floor writhing in pain. Before I could recognize what was happening he was standing upright again, staring shocked at the door.
Jane was standing in the door glaring daggers at Alec.
She looked at me and was standing in front of me before I could blink.
"Gosh Bells. Sorry for my brother. He is an idiot sometimes. Are you okay? I asked Aro were the pranksters were and he said on a mission. I tried to find Alec but I couldn't find him anywhere. Then I heard yelling. I ran as fast as I could. I hope I got here fast enough. I did get here fast enough right?"
I just nodded. I was barely able to keep up with her.
"Hello I exist to you know And why is this pathetic little human more important than me? She comes in here and suddenly grabs everyone's attention." Alec seemed a little hurt and mad.
Jane looked confused before understanding dawned on her face.
"He doesn't know does he?"
"How I didn't have a chance. I was about to thank Heidi when he barged in, insulted me and was about to pounce on me."
Alec seemed really pissed off at that.
"Doesn't know WHAT?"
Jane turned and smiled at him. You could see in his eyes it has been 18 years since Jane had smiled a happy smile.
I looked at him for one short second deciding what to do.
After a short debate whether he was going to attack me again or give me a chance I walked slowly over.
Once I stood in front of him shock was clear on his face.
I hesitantly wrapped my arms around him. When I pulled back his face was shocked. Could vampires go into shock?
Alec seemed to finally come back after a good 5 minutes.
Jane walked beside Alec and pointed to me.
"She's home Alec. Just like you said." Alec seemed to have to ponder that for a moment.
When he realized who was standing in front of him I was in his arms.
"Bella, Bella. I always knew you would come back. I can't believe you are back." He hugged me fiercely.
"It's good to be back home Alec"
He put me down and then hugged me again. This continued for quite some time.
When he finally was able to process I was here and not leaving anytime soon he calmed down.
Just as I was about admire Heidi's work some more my door, which had been closed by Jane, was thrown open.
Before I could comprehend what was happening I was being held against the wall by my throat.
I was scared for a second but then I remembered that I was home.
I looked down to see who was growling at me. Felix! And Demitri was behind him glaring at me.
If looks could kill I would be dead. If daddy came in they would be!
Jane and Alec were in shock. They couldn't believe that Felix and Demitri would do this to me. Well they didn't know, didn't understand I kept on telling me but I couldn't help the anger that was rising up in me.
Finally Alec and Jane seemed to realize I was being held by my NECK against the wall.
Immediately they were next to Felix and Demitri, trying to get me down.
Then the door opened again. I looked over to see who it was and whether they were going to help kill me or save me.
Turns out daddy and my uncles stood in the doorway. They looked at the chaos before them.
Jane and Alec clawing at Felix and Heidi holding of Demitri.
Then they looked at me. Shock and anger went through all of their eyes in synchronization. It would have been funny to watch if I hadn't been held up by my throat.
Felix and Demitri still haven't realized that their masters were in the room.
Aro coughed, barely able to contain is anger.
The two dimwits turned around, looking slightly scared but they didn't let me down yet. I was getting a bit impatient.
"Felix, Demitri I see you have returned from your mission. You may retreat back to your room now!" Getting louder towards the end.
"Yes master." They said together, in equally small voices.
"Finally' I huffed as I was put back down roughly.
Once the door was shut, closed by Felix and Demitri as they ran out of the room after being glared at by my dad, I was in my father's arms.
"Oh, Bella. My sweet Bella. I thing we have to tell the guard that you are back/ that you exist. "I nodded at his words.
"Dad? Where are Carmen and Eleazar?"
He looked at me shortly but sadly.
"They left shortly after you got kidnapped and we switched to the other diet."
"Oh" I missed them a lot. Eleazar always used to be my fourth uncle.
We were all sitting on my bed now.
"So daddy? How are we going to tell the rest of the guards that I'm back or I exist? I mean you sure got a lot of guards in the last 18 years."
"Well we could hold an assembly in which I can tell them my history. All the new guards know is I had a wife which died in a tragic event. Since then I was never the same. For the past I heard all kinds of crazy stories."
Just as Aro was about to speak the door opens again!! Can't a person leave me alone?!
Once the doors were fully open I saw Sulpicia and Athenodora. They were my aunts since they were the mates of my uncles.
They seemed a bit taken aback at the sight in front of them.
I mean your husbands go into depression after you niece is kidnapped and then 18 years later you see your husband and his fellow rulers in a room you haven't looked in on a bed, laughing happy, all traces of depression, hurt, pain, loss swept away from their faces.
I laughed at their faces.
HILARIOUS!!!
Then, inevitably the yelling started.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING???? WE LEAVE FOR TWO DAYS AND FIND YOU IN HERE WITH SOME HUMAN????? WHAT IS GOING ON???? EXPLAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Wow I swear that Sulpicia's and Athenodora's yelling could be heard all over the castle.
"Honey . . . I can explain. I swear. And I have a surprise for you."
With a doubts glance from the wives he turned around and picked me up.
He carried me over and put me on my feet in front of them. The two were glaring at me.
"Athenodora, Honey I have a surprise for you." With that said he gave me a meaningful look that said 'go hug them they're you're aunts' So I did what he suggested and slowly walked forward. The two ancient ladies watched me confused.
After a few steps I stood in front of the women who raised me, who taught me manners, school things and everything else.
I hesitantly took another step and hugged them. They immediately started to tense up. Finally Aro told them.
"My dear ladies I have a surprise for you. The 'human' that is hugging you right now is Bella. She is home again." After a few seconds my aunts hugged me close while dry sobbing.
"Bella I missed you so much. I swear whoever did this to you will pay"
"Yes Bella that vampire will suffer from a slow and painful death."
My uncles seemed to agree with their wives since they nodded. Daddy though asked a question that was hard to answer.
"Bella Jane told us you were kidnapped by and I quote 'some red headed psycho bitch' but she knew nothing else."
I started to explain.
"As you all know I went shopping. The red headed vampire was not a psycho but definitely a bitch. Her name was Victoria. She took me to an airport in Britain. Once we were on the plane I told her my name. Not my last name, didn't want to freak her out much. She said she was human just like me. I laughed in my head at that of course. She basically, unknowingly said she was a vampire. She told me the Romanians had kidnapped her family and friends. I kinda shocked her a bit. But that came later. I told her I would come freely if she promised me something. She had to be always there for me if I needed her help. Then I told her she had to go vegetarian while pointing at her eyes. I then walked off to the bathroom. When I came back she still hadn't moved. Anyway she took me to a random house. After the regular questioning they told me I could stay with them. Renee and Charlie eventually split up and I went with her to phoenix. The sun reminded me of home. Shortly after my seventheenth birthday I moved back with Charlie."
I was in my dad's arms by now. Those years had been pretty rough on me.
They didn't expect anything else but the knowing look on Jane's and Heidi's face said clearly I was going to be bombarded with questions later on.
Daddy and Uncles got up. I looked at them questioningly.
"We have to call a meeting of all guards. You picked a good time to arrive home darling; all the guards are in or are arriving."
I nodded. I was darn tired.
"Well then, Heidi Jane please help Bella get settled, we will be of arranging the meeting. I will expect all three of you in the throne room at 7. It is three right now so that gives you about 4 hours." With that they were off after a hug and kiss on the cheek.
"Well Bella we can dish later first we have to get you settled, and we have to get you ready for your reunion with your family.' She said all of this so fast I had troubles keeping up with her.
Within the next 3 ½ hours Heidi and Jane got me settled, dressed, did my hair and my makeup.
We were walking down the deserted hallways; all the guards were at the meeting.
When we got to the throne room, Sulpicia and Athenodora were waiting outside for me.
"We have to go in now. We are senior members and have to be there. Dora and Sulpicia will give you the run down on how it is going to work."
They each hugged me and then shuffled, hurriedly in to the room.
"Okay Bells. Once all the guards are assembled we are going to walk in. You will be walking in between Dora and Me." Sulpicia instructed me.
"Just as a precaution of course. None of the guards would dare attack somebody who was walking in with the wives." Aunt Dora added.
I nodded. I couldn't believe I was about to see my family again after so long. I was even going to meet new members. I was excited and scared at the same time.
What if they blamed me for Daddy's emptiness? What if they think I wasn't the real Bella Volturi? What if they hated me?
I just shook my head. Jane, Heidi, Aunt Dora, Aunt Sulpicia and Uncle Aro and Caius had accepted me back. Daddy was ecstatic that I was home.
With these thoughts in mind my aunts led me into the throne room. I heard a few gasps coming from the guards. I also heard growls.
Suddenly I heard an agonized scream coming from 2 feet away from me. Jane was glaring at him. Once Jane let up the guy got up and went back to his place in the ranks.
Jane looked at me and I gave her a reassuring smile. She winked back at me.
Heidi seeing our exchange blew a kiss in my direction. While I was walking up the steps to stand behind the thrones with the wives I saw Felix and Demitri giving Jane and Heidi questioning glances. Apparently they saw the whole exchange.
My uncle Aro stood now opening his mouth to make an announcement that was going to bring me home fully. . .
