Chapter Nine

Chloe

Edward's Point of View…

As the bright light began to fade. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Chloe standing in the middle of the clearing with Jane and Alec kneeling in front of her. I looked around searching for the guards but they were all gone. Where did they go? What have Chloe done? I saw her turn around with her golden eyes full of sorrow. "Edward, can you please follow me." she thought. I nod my head and she sped out of the clearing.

"Bella, stay here." I whispered to Bella and sped away. I followed Chloe's scent into the forest. About four miles away, I saw her sitting on a dead tree trunk on the ground with her back away from me. "Chloe, what did you do?"

"I am making things right Edward," she simply replied. I began to approach her and she did not move. "I have caused so much anguish to your family. Not just your family but to Bella and you… Especially you. I have been selfish and I think it's time for me to go on my journey. Maybe to one day be a part of a family like you have." I sat down beside her and sigh.

"Chloe, you will do great things in this world." I replied in a whisper.

"I'm just paying my dues from all the mistakes that I have done."

"You can call it that but you know what I think?" I said with a smile.

"If you let me read your mind I can know what your thinking." she replied in a giggle.

"Not a chance," I laughed. "But if you use all your senses for good. You will do great things. You always did when we were both humans."

"You always know what to say Edward, you haven't changed a bit since I last saw you." she said with a smile as she gets up. "I wish you the best." she said pressing her lips on my right cheek. "Bella is a lucky girl to have someone like you in her life." she whispered. "Farewell Edward." she said turning away.

"Chloe!" I called.

"Yes?" she asked turning around with a sly smile.

"Are you coming to the wedding?" I asked.

"I don't think I was invited; so no." she replied.

"Well… the groom just sent you a personal invitation." I said smiling. I saw her smiled and turned around.

"We will see." she said and disappeared into the forest.

(Chloe's Point of View…)

I couldn't bare to look Edward in the eyes. He and his family have done so much great things for me. Things that I did not appreciate and had taken for granted. It's time for me to repay them from all the things that they have done for me. I'll begin with the Volturi.

I have summoned Jane and Alec to meet me by the river for the three of us to make the journey back to Volterra. Reading from both of their thoughts, they aren't too funned to return home. They are afraid that they will be punished for the deaths of more than a dozen guards. The three of us sped towards the empty clearing just miles away from where Edward and his family were. There, the Volturi's private jet were waiting for us. Alec went to fly the plane. During the flight, both he and Jane were quiet. Still afraid of what lies ahead. I didn't mind, I like silence.

Ten hours later, we arrived in Volterra at midnight. We quietly roamed the streets until we arrived to the Volturi's underground layer. Alec took in a deep breath and swung the corridors open. Jane followed behind him and then me.

"Alec, Jane… welcome back. I am guessing the mission was a success?" Aro asked until his eyes met mine. "Chloe… what a surprise."

"Aro," I replied with a smile.

"Where is Isabella?" he asked now concerned.

"Where are the guards?" Marcus asked in a furious tone of a voice.

Jane and Alec did not reply.

"They're dead." I answered for them.

"Dead?" Caius furiously said as he gets up from his thrown. "How can they be dead? We sent fifty seven of them!" I saw Aro raised his right hand and Caius sat back down.

"I killed them." I replied with a giggle. Intimidation always works. After all this is how I got everything I ever wanted. Plus no one had ever intimidated me, ever. "But you should be happy that I have spared your two favorite guards." I added. I began to hear aggravation in the Volturi's thoughts. "I had no choice, I was just protecting a friend of mine. Isabella."

"Isabella is your friend?" Aro asked confused.

"Not at first," I replied with a laugh. I saw Marcus and Caius shuttered from my laugh. "But we placed our differences aside and became good friends."

"So…" Aro replied relaxing in his seat. "You're a part of their coven now I presume?"

I smiled and examined my perfectly manicured nails. "No, I work alone." I simply replied.

"That's no fun." Aro replied with a smile. "You're still welcome to join our coven."

I let out a giggle and shook my head. "I don't work for anyone." I confirmed. "Plus you wont need me, you have these two." I said pointing towards Jane and Alec.

"I will have no use for them soon." Aro replied. Jane gasped from what she had just heard.

"Tell you what Aro," I said walking towards him. "You spare Jane and Alec and I will spare all of you." I threatened. Aro let out a nervous laugh while Caius and Marcus froze in place.

"Why should we bargain with you?" Aro nervously asked.

"You of all our kind should know to never question my ability, still don't believe me?" I asked showing a devious smile. "Watch this," I said pointing towards one of the guards standing by the door. I snapped my finger and he was on fire and then replaced by ashes. Everyone in the room gasped. Aro got up from his seat. "Now… you spare these two. Leave the Cullen coven alone and I will leave all of you alone."

"Impossible with the Cullens, they have a bargain with us!" Marcus quickly replied.

I smiled and turned to Felix. And pointed my finger towards him. "Want me to show all of you what I can do again?"

"Fine," Aro quickly replied.

"Thank you," I said and a strong scent of human passed through me. "I guess your midnight snacks are here." I said as I gesture towards the door. "I guess this is my cue to leave." I said turning towards the corridors.

"Chloe," Aro said taking off his black cloak and tossing it to me. "If you ever change your mind."

"Thank you," I said and walked out of the room.

As I walked through the dark tunnel and walked passed a group of teenagers that were lead by Demetri. They were excited about the tour of a haunted underground castle. Only if they knew what lies behind the doors that they're about to enter. I picked up my pace to get myself out before they began their meal. I walked passed an office and saw a tall beautiful woman with long mahogany hair. She was wearing a white short shorts and black stilettos that reveals her long legs and a plain powder blue t-shirt that makes her violet eyes brighter. When she saw me, her eyes never left me.

"Who is she?" she asked a short bulky guy who was standing beside her.

"That's Chloe Hope, the most powerful of our kind." he replied.

"Powerful?" she asked. I continued waking away pretending to not hear their conversation.

"Yes, she has endless ability that even the Volturi fears her." he replied.

I smiled and burned the cloak that Aro had given me on my hand. I heard the woman gasped when she saw what I have just done.

"Heidi, its time." I heard Felix said to her.

"I'll… I'll be right there." she nervously replied. "Beautiful and powerful… impossible." she thought.

Get in your head girly… it's possible…
