"Snow? Its snow. How is there snow in 80 degrees weather?" Tanya kept muttering to herself and Rose as they watched Adriana play in the falling snow. The snow was sticking to the ground after only a minute of falling. Tanya for some reason believes that Adriana has caused this. But would a power show so soon? She is only three years old. Did she always have a power or did it just manifest? Tanya has to bring Adriana to Eleazar.
"Adriana, come on. We are going to see Daddy and Uncle Aro." Tanya stated while picking Adriana up.
"No I wanna stay and play in the snow!" Adriana shouted and tried to break out of Tanya's hold. The snow froze at her yell and turned into icicles. The icicles began to fall fast then the snow and one went through Tanya hand.
Tanya dropped Adriana on the floor and looked at the icicle sticking out of her hand. Vampires are supposed to be indestructible and an icicle can penetrate diamond hard skin, how is that even possible? Tanya looked down from the icicle to the angry toddler. Was Adriana the cause of this?
"Adriana, sweetie, we have to go inside and see your daddy." Rose tried to talk to the young girl, thinking if she paid attention to her Adriana would forget about Tanya.
"I don't wanna go inside." Adriana glared up at Tanya and crossed her arms over her small chest.
Rose smiled at the toddler and crouched down. "Well if you don't go inside, how is Felix going to play dollies with you?"
Adriana uncrossed her arms and looked at her Rosie. "Fellie will play dollies with me?" At Rose's nod, Adriana ran into the castle yelling for Felix.
The large vampire burst into the bedroom and started to look for danger. He looked at Tanya's hand confused before a tug at his pants made him look away.
"Fellie, can you play dollies with me?"
Felix smiled down at his little angel and picked her up. "How about we get you something to eat first and then we will play with your dolls?"
"Kay!"
Felix carried the happy girl out of her bedroom and down into the kitchen. The two women looked at each other and then out towards the garden. They gasped as they saw that the icicles has turned back into snow and looked like they were dancing as they fell to the floor. Tanya closed the balcony door and went running towards the throne room. Aro was the only king there but Eleazar and Carlisle were with him.
"We believe the Adriana has a special power." Tanya stated, getting right to business as Rosalie stopped right next to her.
"That's impossible; I didn't read any power from her."
"Maybe she is a shield?" Aro said but then muttered to himself. "I have never seen a single thought since she was born."
Carlisle looked confused. "So you are saying she is a shield?"
"But then how was she able to make it snow and make icicles that can penetrate my hand?" Tanya said while holding up her left hand that still had the icicle sticking out of it.
The men gasped at the sight before they all came closer.
"My niece has two powers?"
"Impossible. No vampire has ever had two powers before."
Aro looked at Eleazar with a look. "She is the first half vampire half human hybrid. She is the first vampire princess. She is the first to have two mates. Why the hell can't she have two powers on top of it all?"
Eleazar started to mutter to himself, hoping and trying to figure it all out.
"If she is a shield, she probably doesn't know it." Carlisle said as Eleazar began to pace. Looking at his adopted daughter, Carlisle spoke. "Did she realize that she was the source of the snow and icicles?"
"No, she didn't at all."
"What caused the snow?"
Rose and Tanya looked at each other at Aro's question. Tanya's eyes lit up in recognition.
"My story. I was telling Adriana about Alaska and all of the snow. She probably wanted to see it for herself."
"Okay that explains the snow but what about the icicles?" Aro gestured to Tanya's hand and noticed that the icicle has not melted at all.
"She got really mad that Tanya was taking her inside and away from the snow." Rosalie said before biting her lip. "You don't think that in her subconscious she wanted to hurt Tanya did you?"
"Well that would explain the icicle sticking out of Tanya's hand, now doesn't it?" Carlisle said while Aro placed a hand on Rose's, reading her thoughts. After Aro has read Rosalie's mind, he read Tanya's. Aro then walked over to his throne and sat there, thinking.
Everything was fine in Rose's and Tanya's mind as the both of them sat on a bench with Adriana in Tanya's lap. As Tanya was telling the story, Rosalie saw a faraway look in Adriana's eyes before the snow started to fall. When Adriana got angry, both Rosalie and Tanya saw violet eyes turn an icy blue with a dark blue ring around them. Then the icicles started. So Adriana has the control of just snow or water in general.
But she might be a shield also. Ever since she was born, Aro has been trying to read her thoughts but always came up with nothing in return. Young Edward couldn't hear a thing from Adriana and now Eleazar couldn't get a read on her powers.
Aro has to go talk to his brother right away.
The four vegetarian vampires watched as their king stood from his throne and walked out of the room without saying anything to the others. Aro walked past Volturi members but didn't even look at them. He even walked right past his wife and Jane, even as they called for him.
Caius looked up from the paperwork scattered on top of his desk as his office door opened with a bang. Caius raised an eyebrow as Aro walked in with a determined yet haunted look on his non-aging face.
"What can I do for you, Brother?"
"It has just been discovered that Adriana has a power, maybe even two."
Caius's other eyebrow raised at the statement.
"My daughter, Adriana?"
"Yes brother."
"What is her power? The one that you know she certainly has?"
"She made snow and then turned them into icicles, which can pierce our skin, when angered."
Caius sat back in his chair and folded his hand on top of his stomach.
"So it's either the control of snow or water in general."
"My thoughts exactly." Aro sat down in one of the chairs in front of Caius desk with a sigh. "Speaking of thoughts, Eleazar and I believe that Adriana is also a shield. Eleazar couldn't see what her power was when he first met her and I haven't been able to see inside of her head since she was born. Edward Cullen also can't read Adriana's thoughts."
Caius frowned at his brother. "So control over water, let's say the general one for right now, and a shield?" Caius thought about it for a minute or two before looking back at Aro. "We will not train her or try and figure out her powers until she is older. I don't want my three year old fighting."
"Of course, Caius. Her training will start after her 16th birthday?"
Caius looked Aro dead in the eye. "If that is what Adriana wants."
Aro nodded before leaving Caius' office. Aro will not try and train Adriana but he will try and figure out her powers. Aro smirked at the power he thinks Adriana can have with just a little training.
Caius already knew that Aro will not heed his warning when it came to Adriana's powers. Aro maybe a good uncle but he is still a power hungry king. Caius waved Demetri into his office with a smirk.
"You called, my lord?"
Caius waved his hand. "None of that my lord crap from you or Felix. The two of you are going to be my son in laws. And speaking of my daughter, it has been discovered that she has powers. Adriana has the control over water and she maybe a shield." Caius let that sink into Demetri's head before continuing. "Now Aro knows about Adriana's powers and he is going want to train her and have control over her powers." Caius stopped as Demetri snapped his jaw shut and clenched his fists. "I don't want my three year old to be fighting either. So I want you and Felix to never leave her side even if she is just with a Cullen or a Denali. You can't trust any of the Volturi members beside myself, my wife, Marcus and Didyme."
"What about Queen Sulpicia?"
Caius scoffed at Demetri's question. "Please she is married to the fool. But you can also trust Heidi; I know for sure she would never want Adriana to go through what we all had too." Demetri nodded his head, agreeing with Caius. "Now remember you and Felix can never leave her alone with someone who wasn't named. Hell she can only be left alone if she is in my care only." Once more Demetri nodded and smirked back at Caius. "And any Volturi member, besides Aro or Sulpicia, who tries to deny you, Kill them. And I don't care who it is. It can be Jane for all I care. I want you to kill anyone that tries to take Adriana from you or Felix." Caius stopped for a second and thought about something. "Well not if it's the pixie or the blonde Cullen. I liked them."
"What about Emmett and Jasper Cullen?"
"Uh Adriana loves them, they can live but the Denali's, only the one that shocks can live. That one is Kate, right?"
"Yes, master it is."
Caius looked at Demetri in the eye. "I told you no more of that. I want you and Felix to call me by my name. You two are my family now and I don't want my family to think that they are lowly guards."
"My apologies, Caius."
Caius nodded his head at Demetri before giving the guard a small half smile before his door opened with a bang once more but this time he was happy to see this person.
Adriana went running to Demetri and hugged his leg before running and jumping into her father's lap. Caius spun the chair in a circle as Adriana laughed loudly. "Daddy look it's still snowing!" Adriana pointed over her father's shoulder and watched as the snow fell to the ground. Caius looked over his shoulder at the snow before looking down at his daughter. He smiled and placed the small girl on the windowsill so she can watch the snow better.
She really didn't know that she is the cause of the snow and Caius likes it better that way. Adriana doesn't have to worry about her powers. She doesn't have to think about what's right and what's wrong with her powers. And most importantly she doesn't have to practice them. She can grow up happy and not in the training room. She can run around freely and not run around trying to escape a danger. And if it was his choice, Caius would make sure his daughter will never step foot in the training room or even learn about her powers. But it isn't his decision, its Adriana's decision.
