Anthenodora never reveled who her husband was, of course Esme never asked. I did hear Rosalie talking to Heidi about the car when I got back. I debated on mentioning whether or not to tell her Heidi was planning on using the car for the Voltari dinners. I decided not to reveal that information. Just like I decide not to tell what I already knew, tell Demetri Alec was not in Greece. For now, I will keep that a secret, after all, if he got into real danger he would be able to cut off their senses. So I figured I would let Aro off the hook with Sulpicia, Alec was most likely doing something important after all.
Heather did not show up to school that Monday, it may me worry a bit. Mainly because Alice and Jasper keep talking about their friends Peter and Charlotte and something about a companion. It scared me a bit, what if they did show up after all, I hoped they didn't harm Heather. I knew for a fact most vampires would not think of her near as important. I notice she was not there during my art class, that was when Mr. Tolte came in excited to see me.
"Felix, just the one I am looking for," He seemed rather happy, I notice everyone else roll their eyes as he came bursting with excitement.
"Yes, Mr. Tolte," I said looking at him as I was forming a tiny clay pot.
"Did you hear about the football coach?" He asked.
"No," I answered, this was strange.
"He's starting out today, out of curiosity when is your gym class?" This was very odd, he had been talking about this football thing for weeks, me specially.
"Seventh," I answered, why would he want to know that.
"Sevenths," He smiled. "I will see you then."
He wasn't the only teacher acting strange, Mr. Helper was more attentive than usual. While we were doing homework he asked to speak to me after class. So I stayed, and he said to me "Felix, you are doing well in this class and I have a feeling you will be a benefit in the fall, so I want to make sure you can play." I think he thought I knew what he was talking about. I didn't admit, I had no clue but I nodded and agreed.
"So I am going to make sure you get the right grades to play, and I am going to talk to your mother in the teacher's lounge, someone of us were talking about it the other day with her and she had disagreements about it. But don't worry, we male teachers are convincing her."
"Alright," I said not really sure what to say. "Thanks."
"Good luck this afternoon," He smiled. It seemed to be what every male teacher said to me, I wanted to ask Esme what Mr. Tolte was talking about instead I had to ask her about Heather.
"Peter and Charlotte are going to busy for awhile, from what Alice said happen in her visions." Esme explained. "They know the rules, as do every vampire that comes here, so don't worry." She seemed rather busy when a knock came on the door.
"Excuse me, Mrs. Cullen." Amber came in. "I would like to talk to you about my paper."
"Certainly," Esme answered coming towards her.
"Can I talk to you alone?" Amber asked.
"Sure," I nodded and left.
I deiced to ask Nathan instead, I notice he wasn't setting at the table I went to talk to him in the lunch line.
"I don't know or care where she is," Nathan answered. "We broke up and are no longer together?"
"Why?" I asked shocked, I never heard of mates breaking up.
"Because she is too…responsible and no fun," Nathan answered, I didn't get that at all. I went to sit with Natalie, and Seth. I asked Natalie, and she simply told me she had to take care of things at home. She then gave Heather's half of the packet for 'Catcher in the Rye'. I also notice Seth seemed very worried about Natalie, it made me wonder if something is going on. Natalie was acting as if she was scared of something, I wish I knew what.
I handed the packet to Mrs. Collar, I couldn't help but notice her belly grew a little, and I could hear something going up against it. She gave me Heather's book, and study guide for the novel.
During my sevenths period class, things got even…stranger. The gym teacher ordered all of us down to the football field, I saw Mr. Tolte standing with a man in an over coat wearing a tie. He smiled when he saw me, I notice his face was similar to Aro's face when he finds a vampire with a power that they want. The gym teacher than had me go out onto the field and try a couple of things, I had to run back and fourth across the field as these two humans hit me with these large cushions. When I was done, the man had a wider smile, I saw him mouthing "I want him, oh I never wanted anything more." I left and went to the locker room after that.
Despite telling Carlisle and Esme I would be home after school, I had to go and make sure Heather was alright. I walked up to her tiny trailer home with her homework and range on the doorbell. Heather answered the door, with Neveah crying in her arms.
"Oh," She said with a dim smile. "Felix, come on in."
I walked in, I notice her house was a cramp with two bedrooms, a crib in the kitchen and a couch made up to be a bed. The kitchen was cluttered with open cans, beer bottles, and a sink full of dirty dishes. Heather was a way I had never seen humans before, she had sweat on her forehead, and extra wrinkles, the baby was also redder than normal.
"I am sorry I couldn't make it to school, Neveah had the flu, and my grandmother had to go to work, and daycare wouldn't take her when she was this ill." She explained quickly as the microwave beeped.
"I'll get that," I said as I went to open the microwave door and pulled out a hot cup of milk.
"Thankyou," She said stress. "Seth's sister did offer to watch the baby, but she's studying to become a nurse, and I don't know her that well. That Collin kid from La Push came by to see if she was alright, I threw him out. He as a strange attachment to Neveah, that I just don't like, Natalie thinks its fine, but I don't at all." Heather stopped to take a deep breath as the baby calmed downed. I moved a blanket on a old used rocking chair for her to sit down.
"Do you need some help?" I asked.
"Well, kind of," Heather answered with a crackle voice. "There is more going on, you see my mother just got released, and I need to make sure she doesn't come around." I wondered why this was. "And I don't know, I feel safe around you" Heather said at a fast pace. "Seth said he will protect us, so does Collin, but …I don't know I feel safe with you around, like if any human came here to harm us you would protect us."
"I see," I nodded as I did the dishes for her, and put them away. "Why can't you have your mother around?"
"Its hard to explain," Heather said. "Natalie is at Seth, she is going to talk to Officer Swan about getting a restraining order, Kelly went with them."
I didn't ask much more, I did help clean up. It was dark out by the time I cleaned up, Natalie was not back yet, nether was Kelly. I than heard a car pull up, I wondered if it was them in till I found a floral scent.
"Let me check and make sure it is not her," Heather said as she handed me Naveah. I felt strange holding the baby, having this wiggly thing in my arms with tempting blood. She did feel warm those, very warm. She seemed almost too warm, that made me even more uncomfortable. "Felix there is someone I don't know, can you check?"
"Sure," I answered as Heather took the baby, I open the window and saw Rosalie outside with expensive jeans, high-heels and a purse.
"That's just my sister," I answered opening the door. Rosalie walked through the door, I was worried that she might feel a bit uncomfortable in this tiny home. I watched as she looked around, a bit shocked at the sight of me holding the baby as Heather quickly moved a basket of dirty laundry out of embarrassment.
"Felix, Alice saw a vision of this happening, I just had to come and see for myself." Rosalie said quit enough so only I could hear.
"I'm sorry to keep him here," Heather said with sweat coming from her. "Its just that my niece has the flu, and a lots going on, when he showed up I kind of needed him."
"I see," Rosalie said as she took Nevaeh from me, Heather watched in a protective manner as Rosalie calmed her down. "So whose baby is this?"
"My older sisters," Heather answered.
"And where is she?" Rosalie asked.
"I have not a clue," Heather answered. "Hadn't seen her since two weeks after Nevaeh was born."
"Oh," Rosalie said in a rather angry tone, I hoped she was upset with Heather. "So she had this baby, and is not taking care of her."
"I don't think she wanted her," Heather answered. "But didn't want to take the time to sign adoption, so here she is."
"Oh," Rosalie seemed even more angry. "Well I am very good with children, do you mind if I get her calmed down."
"It seems like you already have," Heather smiled. "I had to skip school to take care of her."
"You did, did you." Rosalie looked around. "How many people live here?"
"Five," Heather explained. "She sleeps in the living room with me, I sleep on the couch, my two younger sisters sleep in one room, my grandmother sleeps in the other." Heather answered.
"What about your mother?" Rosalie asked.
"She is the kind you don't want her around," Heather answered solemnly. "Believe me."
"I understand," Rosalie said. "I heard about your niece, so I brought some cough medicine on my way over, let me get her fever down while you get herself something to eat." Rosalie looked around the place critically. "And how about we clean this up some?"
"Thank you, miss" Heather smiled. Rosalie seemed a natural at getting Neveah calmed down, she even helped Heather 'baby proof' the trailer when they were done.
"Well, Felix is needed at home, that is why I came to get him." Rosalie said as she left. "I think girls like you should go to school and get educated, so I am going to give you my cell phone number and if that baby is sick tomorrow, I will come and take care of her." She said, I notice she had a bit of anger. "Promise."
"Money," Heather started.
"It's for free," Rosalie explained, as Heather gave her a strange look. "Its not charity, its beneficiary, when you go to school you would be able to help your sisters in the long run."
"Alright," Heather said as she took the number.
"Good," Rosalie said as she left. "And I better not here about you skipping school to take care of this baby, in the long run it won't help."
"Alright, miss." Heather said respectfully.
"Rosalie," Rosalie corrected. "I hope to see you around, Heather."
"Thankyou," Heather smiled as she shut the door.
We got into the car, I notice Rosalie slammed the door, and checked in the mirror to make sure the baby spit was off her cheek. She didn't seem to mind being in the rundown house, not near as much as I thought she would.
"Felix," Rosalie said when took out the wipes. "I absolutely despise woman like that."
"You mean like Heather?" I asked shocked.
"No, I have tremendous respect for girls like those, and anytime I see girls like her I am always willing to help them." Rosalie sighed. "Most of the time I can't, but it always seems girls like her seem older than me, even those I am almost one hundred. Its woman like…her mother and her sister I hate."
"Why?" I asked.
"Because it's unfair," Rosalie answered. "All the time I have listen in over the decades to my class mates who had mothers like that, I wanted to follow them home and kill those woman. It is just unfair, that woman like Esme, and I can't have children, who would do anything to have children. Then woman like her sister and her mother can have them and treat them like….garbage, like their nothing. It is unfair and I hate it so much, I hate them more than anything."
"Oh" I said not knowing what to say.
"You got another letter," Rosalie handed it over to me. "It's from Jane, again."
"You didn't open it this time," I said looking at the envelope.
"I want to know what is going on," Rosalie pointed out. "I want to know about the 'Children of the Moon'. Read it to me please."
I opened the letter, it was filled with at least ten pictures, all of the place, and not one of the people. " 'Dear Felix,'" I started. " 'I am glad someone besides Aro is responding to my letters, I haven't even got a letter from Alec yet. Anyway, I guess I should start were I left off in my last letter. The most interesting thing happened, we were still in the middle of the Aegean sea when it started getting dark, I took a picture of the sunset for you. Hecate asked if I wanted to come up on deck and help her and Mathias, I of course said yes. I asked her if she wanted me to help with the light and she answered "No, no need" I than watched her pull out her hand and saw a glowing light come from it, and I have to say it was amazingly beautiful. The way the light shimmered, it was an alternative to electricity I guess you could say, because it certainly was brighter. I was the only one amazed, Mathias, kept asking her were to point her palms, Sulpicia lived with her so she knew, she even made a joked about being the world's first light house. Grisbert, visited them many times and has seen her, he was surprised that I was surprised. Hecate asked if I would ring the bell when Mathias sees land, I of course agreed.
While I was up with Matthias and Hecate, Sulpicia and Grisbert went to the hold to get the luggage ready. That was when I asked Hecate, "What is it like being the oldest woman in the world?" She laughed at that one, which confused me, when she said "Now, that explains how every immortal woman I run these days were created after me.: I wondered if she was serious, in till she went on "It's really not that big of an accomplishment, really. It didn't take that much at all, It is sort of ironic I started out as a simple peasant girl. When I was growing up I always stood out in the dark, my father would say he was able to make it home faster when I stood outside. I remember when I was little I woke up to this man and woman would come up and check up on me once and awhile, they disappeared as soon as I notice them those. When I was around thirteen I was sent to Athens to become a Priestess, I was eighteen when I felt a great chill. Keep in mind back then eighteen was like thirty today, that is why I look much older than I actually was. As I felt this chill, this woman with marveling white skin appeared to be crying saying her daughter was kidnapped.
I swore it was the Demeter humans knew back then, keep in mind mythology and actual vampires are two different things. I didn't know she could make a chill, and she used the kidnapped daughter story to lure her victims…anyway she led me to the cave. I didn't know I was standing out in the dark, I suppose that is what brought her…Persephone. They did have a lot of similar features. The younger woman yelled 'What are you doing here luring your victims. Trying to find another la tua cantante or making up for the one you lost.
The older woman said she wouldn't feel so denied because she missed out on what was so delicious when Hades changed her. This confused me when the younger woman, said 'Now you are getting revenge on steeling those who we have an eye on, those we were planning to change.'
I was on my knees, so confused when I asked what was going on, and what did she mean by changed. The younger woman came to my level and said 'I guess I shall show you, well you know the rest, three days later I was on my way to being the oldest woman in the world." Hecate laughed. "The oldest man is somewhere in Africa, but I would personally rather have Persephone be the oldest woman, not me. She had the power to manipulate plants you know, able to make them grow…that was how they kept their 'crops' healthy." She said as she let out a laugh. "I adjusted rather well, back then woman had better status in the vampire world, than the human world. So I came to like it better," She let out another laugh and looked up at Mathias, "He thought he I was evil when we first met, he was human it was the start of the last millennium. He was nit was some kind of priest for this one new religion…kept saying I was a witch goddess up to no good, in reality I just found him absolutely adorable, he got attacked one night, so I turned him. We've been together ever since, haven't we dear.'
"Yes, we have," Matthias smiled. "I'm the one who convinced her to switch to animals." They then kissed.
When Hecate finished her story, I notice a large sea-cliff island hidden from humans that had large stairs into them that led to a a large white clay house with a red-tile roof, and a large white tower with a blue dome behind it. It seemed to be a mixture of ancient Greece, and modern Greece homes put togather.
We came to shore we saw a woman, with pale vampire skin that had a light brown undertone along with dark raven black hair wrapped in a colorful yellow scarf, wearing a pair of jeans and a blue sweater, along with another vampire with short black hair in a bob, wearing a white peasant top along with a silk purple skirt.
"Beyza, Sophia did they leave already?" Hecate asked when we got off the boat, Gisbert grabbed my luggage without asking for some reason.
"Yes," Beyza nodded smiling at us while she grabbed a small basket. "I take it you must be Sulpicia and Jane, nice to finally meet you.." I was happy to hear that as she shook her hands. "I have to go to the mainland, and get some food for Aysun, Nikki, and of course Alexander they are always hunger after a full moon." Sulpicia and I nodded not saying too much, we could tell she was nervous but she knew being part of this coven insured her and her werewolves safety.
"You must be Sophia," Sulpicia smiled towards the girl, as they hugged. "I am so glad to finally meet Lamia's daughter after hearing so much about you."
"You, too," Sophia smiled, she looked to be around nineteen as she glanced towards me. "Jane, cousin, we have been running around forever preparing for you. Philomela especially, it's rare when she meets vampires turned around your age."
"I can't wait to meet her too," I replied.
"I have a feeling you'll get along, Hector is one of my best buds." Gisbert said as he came up next to me.
"Anyway, during full moons Beyza goes out and gets food for our 'extra members' and we send someone along, it is Sophia's turn this month, they have a motor boat the take to the other island" Hecate explained as she led us up the stairs. We up to this beautiful gate that open to came to a courtyard filled with flowers and statues, I have a picture of it, beauty doesn't even describe it. That was when we were greeted by a young girl with long charcoal black hair that was placed into two buns, who came up and hugged me. I assumed she was Philomela. "Jane," She smiled coming up to hug me. "I knew we would be best friends from the moment we met, after all we are…cousins."
"Let them get settled Philomela before we continue on," Hecate started.
"We been preparing all day for you," Philomela smiled looking at Sulpicia. "Nice to meet you too…Auntie, shame the rest of your family couldn't make it I would of loved to meet my other uncles."
"Hello, I'm here too," Gisbert stated.
"I know," Philomela laughed. "I hope you don't mind, but you'll be staying in the Hale part."
"I was hoping to be in Jane's room but that's not a good chance," Grisbert joked as they led us into the room off to the side. They don't have electricity, but the room was still rather nice. Hecate lighted it in till Sulipica found a lamp and put it next to a two-hundred year old bed stand. The room was rather tiny, with two sofa like furniture that Sulpicia informed me they were actually kline which they used as beds in their human days. We put our suitcases on them. I listened to everything she told me as we set up the room. I was not to put anything small near the windows, because they don't have glass, instead it was just two shutters that she would open during the day, and the wind will knock them over. I than changed into a dress, and used a pitcher and basin to clean myself up. Philomela came back over with a boy, around Alec's size with dark brown hair and a big muscular body.
"Nice to meet you, Jane, Sulpicia." The boy smiled.
"This is my husband, Hector," Philomela smiled, I didn't know vampires formed at our age could get mates, seeing them was quite hopeful.
"You must be Morno's son," Sulpicia smiled. "It is so pleasing to meet you."
"You, too." He said with his arm around Philomela. "Anyway, you are wanted in the andron, the entire family is waiting for you." They led us across the courtyard were I was joined by Grisbert again.
"I've never got this much of a welcome," He committed to Hector.
"Because you come all the time," Hector pointed out as he grabbed Philomela's hand.
Grisbert then smiled towards me "Well, I had to come this time and see your special guest."
"Is that right, Grisbert," Sulpicia joked. "From the train ride, I thought you were avoiding us."
"That was all in till I saw what I would be missing out on," Gisbert looked directly at me, when we entered a room filled with the rest of the coven.
It didn't take me long to recognize each of them. Auntie Empusa glowed with the ancient beauty we were told about, it is easy to see why she was often sent to get the 'meals'. She had this shiny red hair that almost look like fire, along with glowing skin that I suppose was once bronze when she was a human. She came up to us happily along with her husband, Stamatio, who was a lean muscle man with sleeked black hair holding a basket along with their daughter, our cousin Agatha holding another basket. Agatha was rather beautiful as well. They were very excited when we came into the room as they entered, they sat us under a large sign that 'Welcome Sulpicia and Jane' I then met Auntie Liam, and her husband Dragomir, who hugged us and took our picture. I think it was a shock for Sulpicia to hear Monroe, talk since she didn't talk when she lived with them, it is strange that her silence brought the Volturi to power. Anyway she was happy, it is kind of cute to see her wrapped up with Charalampos.'
"Do explained," Rosalie stopped me as she turned.
"Monroe never talked after her transformation, Hades and Persephone explained that to the Romanians many times. They never saw a problem with it, she would normally let Caius do the talking for her, if she wanted to know what they were thinking she would let Aro touch her. Back then he didn't touch anyone except Sulpicia and Monroe without Hades orders." I explained, still having a hard time with Aro being that disciplined. "It was couple centuries after their deaths, the Romanians were still looking for Aro to be a member of their guard. So he had to go into hiding, they did find Monroe and tortured her to tell were Aro was, of course she didn't talk, and didn't tell them. Dragomir, Liam's husband was a member of the guard at that time took sympathy on her. He escaped with her and returned her to her coven. When Aro, Marcus, and Caius found out what happened to her that's when they decided it was enough." I explained when Rosalie nodded.
"Alright continue." She told me, as I went on.
" 'It was rather interesting, they really shouldn't have, but they did. Empusa then gave each of us a gift basket, it was completely unexpected.
"Agatha and I had fun picking out yours Jane," Empusa committed. "We walked into the store and asked 'What do normal fourteen-year olds like, and the nice sales lady said she had a daughter that age and helped us pick out from a rather wide selection." You could tell they think I was normal teenager, in it had a beach towel, flip-flops, at least ten pairs of two-piece swim suits, along with a manicure set. I couldn't help but smile excitedly over the new clothes, even those their style was rather girlish for my taste. I enjoyed it, it also had this beautiful hemp ankle bracelet with these pink beads.
"I made that for you," Philomela said. "It's a friendship bracelets, you see I have one matching."
"Thank you," I smiled putting it on.
"Now," Agetha started. "Tell us about our relatives."
We than told them all about Marcus and his daughters, as well as Caius and Anthenodora, along with their family. We also told them about the Cullens, and you of course. They had a lot of questions about them, we were honest and said we really don't know much. When we got to the fake 'Grand Caynon' trip, they were surprised about Reese's May. Finally Monroe asked Sulpicia about her and Aro, that was when everyone went silent.
"Philomela, Agetha, Hector, Grisbert why don't you show Jane the rope tree, I am sure she would have a good time," Liam suggested. That was when Agetha and Philomena grabbed my hands and left. They took me to Agetha's room, were we all changed into swimsuits. I put on one of my new ones the got me, I couldn't help but notice how their clothes was much more colorful than mine.
Now comes to the part where I did something stupid, and I mean really stupid. Well, next thing you know I was at this old olive tree with a rope tied to a branch that hung off a cliff. Hector and Gisbert came up shortly after Agatha lit a lantern and put it on the side.
"Oh, look vampire sports illustrated," Gribert said as soon as he saw me.
"Nice to see you, too," I smiled when he came up to greet me. That was when Hector and Philomela had a long passionate kiss. While that was going on Agatha came up and whispered. "I think Gisbert likes you."
I wanted to say 'duh' but instead I just agreed.
Well shortly after that, they were swinging from the rope into the ocean, I was nervous at first but Gisbert looked at me in a strange way. That is one thing I have notice when he looks at you feel completely relaxed and stress free. He came behind me, showed me how to hold the rope, and was with me when we first swung off. We landed in the ocean together, and climbed up the cliffs together. When we got back up, Sophia was back, along with Beyza who was warning me to be careful the tide should be coming in soon.
Now, what is the one thing stronger than vampires….the forces of nature. I went in anyway, and next thing you know I swung in by myself before seeing this big wave come up. The wave was so large it went halfway up the cliff, it was so strong I lost total control on where I was going. I was pulled deep into water, as I lost a battle with the strong current.
I swear if I wasn't immortal than I probably would of drowned. When I finally made it to the surface, I couldn't see the island anywhere. It was pitch black with the moon as my only light.
I don't know how far I was out, but I kept seeing Liam's reflection across the water, and I was confused but I kept swimming towards it, I than smelled human blood which was an indicator I was heading to the wrong island. I than had to duck and hide from the human fisher men. I was almost taken by a net, but I used my teeth to break it and got away. I tried to find an island with the floral scent but I could only smell sea water. I knew I was lost, more lost than ever. Not to mention the ocean current kept pulling me a different direction, I think I was in a whirl pool at one point. Let me tell you the Aegean sea is a lot bigger than the map portrays it, I figured that out quickly.
I got scared when I saw the sun raised. It was beautiful yet panicky because it meant how long I have been lost. It was the first time I was out of the tower alone, which made me even more scared of running into vampires who wanted to get revenge on me for using my gift. I still kept seeing Liam's reflection over the water, and swimming towards it. I don't know why I just did, I then smell this strange, awful disgusting smell coming in the air. That was when heard a boat coming from behind me, I ducked to hid from it, because my skin was shimmering by then. Next thing you know this hand grab my arm and lift me out. I looked up to see three extremely muscled figures smiling down upon me as I was plopped into a motor boat.
"You must be Jane," One of the men smiled with an American accent. I knew they had to be the werewolves. I was scared of them, but I kept remembering they are part of the Greek coven, even those they are illegal, they are still family and I was told that it was an order that I am never, ever, ever, ever allowed to use my 'gift' on any members of the Greek coven. So I was pretty much helpless in the boat, I notice the woman with, brownish skin with Bezya's exact face but a much more muscular body come over and wrapped a towel around me. I than heard another American accent speaking on the radio. "Reporting to Hector, Hector are you there."
"No, Nikki its Stamatio" His happy voice came thought. "Did you locate her?"
"Yeah, we have her," Nikki answered. "Tell Aunt Sulpicia not to worry, she is in good hands."
"No, problem, bring her home," Stamatio smiled.
"Alright, I guess we could start heading home." Aysun smiled as she open the cooler. "I have to say I am kind of glad you got lost, I couldn't wait to come home and meet you."
"Yeah, at of all nights in the month you had to come home on a full moon," Alexander said as he took food out of the cooler. They all had human food coming out of the cooler, it was rather strange how fast they ate.
"So, do you always eat human food so fast?" I asked.
"Only after full moon nights," Alexander answered. "As you know we don't have control over ourselves during transformation, when we go for twenty-four hours without eating. We are weak, and less dangerous."
"Oh," I said nodding, noticing their yellow eyes.
"How do you became werewolves?" I asked.
"I became a werewolf in 1414," Aysun started. "My sister and I were sent to an arrange marriage in Istanbul, it was two nights before, we were in a harem, when heard these two people fighting in the garden. No one notice us sneaking out, and we saw this white figure and this hairy wolf figure in the garden.. We were fools when we approach the fight. As we walked towards them Beyza stubbed her foot causing blood to come out next thing she knew this pale white woman started attacking her. Beyza let out this screem of agony, as the wolf like creature came and pulled the white figure off of her and she started to run. I notice she was crying that she was burning, when the wolf came after her. He tried to attack her but I got in the way, and he attacked me. I was able to stab him, but not kill him. We were both very injured so I pulled her to the dungion were we hide.
The next morning, a muscular man came and explained to me he was a warewolf, and I was now one too. He also told me the only fair thing that was right for my sister was to kill her. I didn't believe him, and told him to leave her alone, he warned me I will be surprised how the sisterhood will fall on the next full moon.
Three days later Beyza woke up with red eyes, and very white skin. She told me I smelled aweful. That was when our future husband's guard found us, it surprised me my sister killed them and drank them without thinking. We remained in the dungon, I was scared because she was so out of control. That was when the white pale woman came back and explained to her that she was a vampire. We belived her than, she than told me I had to be killed or Beyza would be sentice to die. Beyza refused and killed her, we killed the man later too. We spent the next couple centuries as nomads, roaming the world for her prey and my safty. She killed many vampires who tried to kill me." I smiled at that one, I understood sibling love.
"Tell her the next part," Nikki joked.
"Well, my sister heard there were a lot of chances…for vampires to take a pray and it to go unnoticed. She stayed with the French coven, as a guest during that time, World War Two. They didn't want to go back to North America, they didn't know about me. I remained hidden in the wilderness, I did go to Pairs once, were I met him. That was when I saw him, the most handsome human ever." I notice Nikki smiling.
"I didn't know she was a vampire, she had a good fake accent, I was then sent on a mission to Germany. I was on my way back, the only one left when I first saw vampires, they said something about Nazi spies and I believed them, if I was a German they would of said American spies hiding in their barn." Nikki laughed as he put his arm around Aysun.
"Beyza was trying to keep me hidden, but I saw him and of course I wasn't…myself and I attacked him. He shot me, thinking that would work. Beyza knew who he was too, and told him to get away. That was it with the French coven, not only did we lose their pray but I broke the law with them. It didn't matter, because we needed to find Nikki before the next full moon." Aysun said as Alexander smiled.
"I notice he was weird when we got back," He said. "He got shot one time, and the wound healed on its own, he was also stronger and eating more. I think I was the only one who notice his blue eyes were now yellow. Than one eveing, these two Turkish woman were sneaking around the camp. They waited till Nikki was alone, and grabbed him. I couldn't help but follow him, next thing you know my little brother turned into this wolf and attacked me. That was when Beyza saved me, because she notice I was the cute one." Alexander joked.
" "Well actually Aysun decided to turn the cuter one first," Nikki laugh.
"Excuse me, but who got the vampire, swoon the natural enemy?" Alexander asked.
"Only after she tried to save me" Nikki joked back.
"What's the point, we are being terribly rude," Alexander went on. "Here we are eating in front of our guest who has blacker than black eyes."
"You got to be thirsty," Nikki said looking at me. "I'll get you something."
"Nikki, be careful," Aysun said as she watched Nikki jump in the water, than came back up with a shark on his arm.
"Here you go, Jane." He said as he pulled his teeth off his arm and handed the large wiggly thing to me. "Suck away."
Animal blood is actually not have that bad, didn't taste near as terrible as I thought it would be. Tell the Cullens the shark blood is very tasty. I then notice Aunt Liam's figure standing over the water.
"See, she's safe," Alexander smiled looking towards me. She smiled and disappeared.
"What's that about?" I asked.
"She can project herself." Aysun answered. "You didn't know that."
"No," I answered as I finished my shark, we came up to the island, were I found the entire coven waiting for us, and to my surprise Sulpicia and Gisbert with warm amber eyes. Sulpicia came running up to me with a hug, I didn't know she was capable of being that worried. She then went to thank Nikki, Alexander and Aysun, and apologize admitting she was leery about them in till they saved me.
"I am so sorry, Jane" Philomela said as Hecate gave her a rather angry look. "I should have been watching you better, I sort of assumed you would know."
"Its alright," I said, it really wasn't that big of a deal.
"No, it's not," Hecate interrupted. "You don't know the waters well, and Philomela should know this is family, you needed to watch her."
"Sorry." Philomela said.
"It's all fine now," Sulpicia said putting her hands on my shoulder. "Come on, let's go and get change."
I notice Gisbert had a relatively sad looking face when I came up to greet him, I asked him what was wrong and he said. "Nothing, I would of liked to be the one who rescued you."
"Oh," I laughed. "Maybe you'll get another chance."
I tell you Felix, as immature Gisbert may seem. I am finding a little friendship with him, you would like him, Alec would like him. I hope both you and Alec would meet him someday, I would tell him all about Greece, if Alec wrote back so I ask..please tell him to write back to me.
Thankyou, and have fun,
Jane'" I folded the letter and put it back in the envelope.
"Alright," Rosalie said as we pulled up to the drive way. "I can't believe I am here asking you this, but I want you to do me a huge favor."
"What?" I asked.
"Ask Jane to send pictures of the 'Children of the Moon'" Rosalie answered. "Tell her you are curios on what they look like."
"Alright," I answered surprised as we walked inside. I than notice Emmett was setting on the couch with some guy, with a widen smile, as Jasper rolled his eyes while he talked. The man was talking to Carlisle and Esme when I stepped in, it was the same man I saw in Gym class that day.
"You must be him," The man smiled. "Felix, my name is Couch Trators and I would like to interest you in playing on the Football team."
Alec got off the train in Barsov, and found himself at a bench reading the maps. Trying to figure out where are the ruins of that one castle, the Romains called their home. Majority of the roads that lead there were no longer in existence, he wondered if he could find them through the mountains. That was when Alec heard two vampires arguing, the girl one was Polish speaking vampire, who had to be around eighteen that showed radiant beauty. The other a young man who seemed to be around sixteen was talking back to her in German. Even those they were arguing in a languages he not use to speaking, he under stood them well.
"I can't believe it, I can't believe it, she knew her name but wouldn't give it to me instead she just described her and told me where she was headed." He seem frustrated.
"Well, she had no problem giving me the name of mine," The Polish woman laughed. "I think I'll call him Al, for short. So are you going to pay your friend a visit?"
"Yes, of course if that is where Priscilla said she was going to be, I am glad she gave me her gift back." He sighed. "I wouldn't want to get ripped off."
"Excuse me," Alec went to interrupt after he heard Priscilla's name mentioned. "You know where Priscilla is?'
"Yes, she just used her gift on us," The German smiled. "She wouldn't give me her name those, just told me where she would be. Are you heading up to use her?"
"Yes, I am am," Alec lied, not wanting to revel he planned to kill her.
"Do you have a gift, she won't look in you in less you bring a gift." the Polish woman vampire explained. "Of course that may just be the Romanians making a profit."
"I got a gift," Alec not mentioning they were matches.
"Well, I have no problem giving you directions," the German vampire smiled. "Just be careful who you talk to, we don't want the Volturi to know what's going on, because they would abuse her gift."
"I won't tell the Volturi," Alec said hiding his crest, these were obviously not the brightest vampires.
"Well, you follow that highway, in till you reach this village, what's it called again?' he looked back at his blonde hair companion
"I don't know, its somewhere in Sibiu," The woman answered.
"Its somewhere in Sibiu" he explained, they weren't very helpful.
"Don't they live in Sighisoara?" Alec had to ask.
"Yes, but she does business in a secluded spot, so the Volturi won't find her, or think she is part of their coven." The German vampire smiled towards Alec. "If you know what I mean."
"Yes, I do," Alec said, trying not to laugh. "So where is this secluded spot."
"In the southern part of Sibiu county, or is it the northern, its one or the other." the man went on.
"Oh, wait, I know, I know," The woman said happily interrupting. "Do you know how to get to the Silmnic commune?"
"No," Alec answered.
"Well you go there, and walk around till you find a small dirt road, I can't pronounce the name but it had tall bare trees, of course they could have buds coming out of them. God down that path, it leads to the Zakel hills, than you'll see a lake, and somewhere along that lake is a little brook, its next to this field of wildflowers, and if you are a vampire she will come down from a tree, you give her your gift, she will look in your eyes and tell you who it is."
"In less you say something offensive than she'll tell you what your special someone looks like and were she is heading." The German rolled his eyes.
"Does it make sense?" The polish woman asked.
'No' Alec felt like saying, he truly went to the wrong vampires, not only were they annoying but confusing as well. "Yes, and I will keep quite to the Volturi." Alec smiled towards them.
"Good," The German smiled. "And good luck."
"You too," Alec said to them as grabbed his bags.
"And I hope to see you again sometime," The German called as Alec left, that was the last thing Alec wanted. Those two would give any vampire a headace.
"What an idiot," Alec thought to himself, as he smiled. He truly didn't want to see those two again, they would give any vampire or human a headache. He left the train station his way to end what every power this Romanian girl had over other vampires.
