Glad some of you liked the last chapter because this one may be a bit dramatic if not suspenseful. This part takes place in the camps and part of the Volturi palace where Celeste and Neko are snooping around trying to see all that's happened while they were gone, mainly Celeste but she's just a Curious George isn't she?

Enjoy!

Two days after arriving in Volterra:

2:30 p.m.

"Celli come on it doesn't take you twenty minutes to put some fresh clothes on!" Neko was outside the tent waiting on his twin to go hunting. The wolves took their turn in guarding the camp during the day, and the vampires hid either in their tents or in the palace until sunset. Each coven took turns going hunting when needed, and the twins were starving at the minute but ran out of food.

"I'm coming Neko don't rush me!" she came out wearing her white robe and this time took out her bear mask that covered her face and hair. Neko had on his as well, but it was a werewolf's flesh and fur; he only wore it when he needed to, unlike Celeste who loved wearing hers every time they went somewhere new. She came out of the tent with her mask in hand and placed it over her head.

"Let's get going the Cullens spotted a pack of bears up in the forests."

"Oh bears my second favorite meal!" they ran at vampire speed and in an instant and saw two full grown male bears feeding off a honey hive, probably from a nearby farm. "Ok, on three….one…two…three!" they jumped onto the bears, devoured their blood, and realized they soon had to the carcasses back to camp so they could burn the remains. Celeste took off her mask and Nekolai took off his and cape stashing them in his backpack.

"That was delicious, you full sis?"

"Oh yeah big bro, so full I can't run as fast as I want to at the moment. What do you want to do with these bodies?"

"Guess we give them to the others, there's still a little blood in them."

"We could give them to the little one, she likes animals for food."

"Not a bad idea, let's go." They walked into the camps and found the Cullens all talking with the Denalis. When they reached the spot they dropped the bodies in front of them and little Renesmee jumped up all full of glee and attacked the dead animals.

"Renesmee don't eat it too fast now. How was your hunt Nekolai, Celeste?"

"Rather satisfying, these bears taste better than the ones back in Forks." Nekolai answered and Renesmee hugged his legs.

"Thanks for the food you guys, it was yummy." They laughed and Celeste rubbed Nessie's hair.

"You're welcome sweetie, hey how about you and I go play in the fields? Neko will join us, or someone in your coven can join us?" Nessie looked pleadingly at her family and Bella stood up.

"I'll come with you, it might be fun. You coming Edward?"

"Sure." All five left the area bidding the rest goodbye until sunset. When they reached a deserted meadow little Renesmee began playing in the wildflowers and Edward took a seat in the shade with Bella. Neko sat down next to them and watched his twin chase the tiny hybrid around the field.

"How old did you say you and Celeste were?" Neko looked at Edward and smiled.

"A little over 300, give or take a few years. What about you?"

"A hundred and eleven, Bella's only nineteen at the moment."

"Yes I could tell, she's still somewhat a newborn. You two make a fine match, and you created a beautiful young daughter."

"Thank you. You and your sister seem to do fine with each other, how is it you don't have mates yet?"

"Oh we haven't found the right ones yet, we've looked around but no one suits us. I've been out with several women before, but none just appear to be the right mate for me."

"Oh I see…what about Celeste? She dated anyone?" Bella looked over at the two playmates and Celli was turning Nessie around in the air and the little one was laughing.

"A few guys, but they all turned out to be jerks. At least that's what she said."

"What happened?"

"They turned out ok at first but then she found out they were all sleazebags, drinking, drug addicts, and I think one cheated on her with two other girls."

"Damn…let me guess she got back at them somehow?"

"She beat them mercilessly, but only broke a bone or two." The other two exchanged glances and a slight squeal of joy caught their attention. Renesmee was on Celeste's shoulders chasing a blue butterfly flying over them.

"Does she have a temper?" Nekolai looked at them and nodded.

"Yeah, but she doesn't show it often. I'm kind of quick-tempered but I check it every now and again. Celli be careful!" Celeste had tossed little Renesmee into the air and the little one luckily landed on her feet.

"It's ok guys we're just having fun."

"It doesn't matter don't do that anymore!"

"Ok ok yikes." Bella and Edward stood up and Edward took Renesmee by the hand.

"I think that's enough playing for now, we need to get ready for our hunting trip soon."

"But dad I wanna play with Celeste some more!" Renesmee whined and Bella looked serious.

"Renesmee listen to your father and come on, you can play more later." Renesmee looked at Celeste and the woman smiled.

"It's ok kid, go with your parents. I'll see you later on." Renesmee smiled and hugged Celli's legs, then left with her folks. Nekolai went over and put a hand on his sister's shoulder. "Guess I went a little too far eh?"

"Yeah you did, but don't let it get to you they'll ease up later on." Just then Celeste sniffed the air and looked at her twin concerned.

"Someone's coming! It smells like Felix."

"Damn, quick we gotta hide!" Neko pulled Celli out into the forest and they ran straight up into the trees dodging every spot the large guard would look. When they reached a safe spot they looked around and saw no one was following them.

"How in the hell did he get so close?" Nekolai looked at Celeste and she shrugged. "That can't happen again, any time you or I see a guard or smell one nearby, do not let them see you. You know what'll happen if…"

"I know I know bro, don't worry I won't hang around it too much. Let's head back to camp; I need to wash this bear blood off my legs." She pointed at her pants and there were some bloody spots on them along with her boots. Just as they began coming up Neko put a hand on his sister's shoulder and she turned to him.

"One more thing Celli, if that happens again just run for cover and keep out of sight."

"Gotcha. Race you to the pond!" they ran up to the small pond near the camp where the others were busy swimming and bathing. Celeste jumped up and landed on a rock but Nekolai beat her to the water. They laughed and splashed each other until Celli went under and yanked Neko down with her. He came up gasping slightly and searched for her, getting a few laughs from the Denalis and the Egyptians.

"Oh hah hah hah very funny Celeste, you get back up here right now or I'll—gah!" Neko was suddenly pushed up from the water and thrown onto a bush nearby. More laughs came as Celli poked her head up and laughed so hard her mouth looked a bit stretched. "I'm gonna kill you Celli!"

"Only if you can catch me wimp!" she dove into the water. Neko chased after her until they ended up a bit far down the river and Celeste spotted Alec and Jane walking along the edge. She dove back under and Neko dove in with her swimming back to the rest of the vampires. They ran away from the river and hid back in their tent taking a few breaths.

"How did that happen again? We should've seen it coming…"

"They're just out watching the others bro, don't let it get to you."

"Still we got to keep an eye on things. Let's stay here a bit and wait until we're sure the Volturi are all back in the palace."

"Boring."

"Don't give me any lip Celli, we have to keep quiet until…"

"Excuse us Edward Cullen, but we were wondering if you've seen a couple of blondes come this way?" Jane's voice was heard outside the tent.

"There's a lot of blondes here Jane, which ones are you looking for?"

"A man and a woman, we saw them at the river and asked to speak with them but they vanished. Have you seen them?"

"I think they mean Neko and Celli daddy." Renesmee's cheery voice caught their ears.

"Damn! Stay here sis I'm going out." Before Celli could reply Nekolai stepped outside in front of the Cullen trio and the Witch Twins.

"Is there something wrong?" he asked.

"No, nothing's wrong. We only wanted to know a little about you and your sister to report back to Aro. Why did you run?"

"My sister's no good around strangers, when she took off I took off. She's what you would call, painfully shy. "

"I see, now what are your names and where do you live? No one here seems to know you or your sister."

"My name is Nekolai, and my sister's name is Celli. We're nomads, we travel everywhere but we don't have a particular area to live in. My sister and I love travelling, and we have been for over 300 years since we were changed." He felt extremely awkward giving out this important information, but he had no choice at the moment.

"And your diets? Animals I suppose?"

"Oh yes, we don't take pride in killing innocent humans for food."

"Do you have any special abilities besides your speed and strength?"

"No we don't, but we have heard of yours. The Illusion of Pain correct?"

"Yes, and Alec has the ability of Sensory Perception. (correct me if I'm wrong)"

"A good combination in most cases, but please don't let me or my sister get on your bad side." Jane smiled and Alec nodded.

"Thank you for your time, we'll be heading back now." The two headed back out of the camps and Neko got a few strange looks from the Cullen trio.

"You know they're bound to find out about your powers sooner or later right?" Bella asked and Nekolai nodded.

"Hopefully by then we'll be long gone, now if you'll excuse me I'm going to check on Celeste." He left and Celeste was in the tent with her arms crossed and her left eyebrow quirked.

"Painfully shy? Really Neko you couldn't have just said I was mute or something?"

"Oh come on sis who would believe a vampire can be mute, besides that just raises questions on whether you have a power or not." Celeste made a pouty face and poked her lip out.

"Yeah ok, now can I go out?" Neko shook his head.

"No Celli, you have to stay in unless we need to hunt or bathe. Any other time you are to stay in the tent you understand?"

"But why? Neko we're not in any danger here why do I have to stay in here all day and all night?"

"If those guards keep coming down here like that then we might not be as lucky in escaping. The minute one of them sees you their memories will come back and we're done for."

"They won't kill us Nekolai!"

"You know what I mean! Do as I say and do not, I repeat, do not set one foot outside again understand? I don't want to risk us being exposed after all we've been through."

"I know Neko but if I'm in here all day and night the others will know something's up."

"I'll cover for you, now stay here I'm going to see if someone else can take your place on guard duty tonight." He left the tent and Celeste just kicked a box, splitting it in two.

"Damn! What the hell am I suppose to do now?" Celli peaked out a small hole in the tent and saw the sun was setting, but her eyes also caught sight of the large clock tower right in the middle of Volterra. Celeste sighed at the sight and sat quietly in the corner of the tent.

'Feels like I'm eight all over again.'

In the palace:

"Master Aro, Jane and Alec have returned." Felix spoke up in the throne room as the two deadly twins entered through the large double doors. Aro got up from his throne and kissed their foreheads.

"How are they all?"

"They're fine master, everyone's accounted for including the newbie's. "

"New ones Jane?" she held out her hand and Aro read her thoughts and saw a mysterious face in them. A man about eighteen or nineteen with shoulder length white blonde hair, slightly lean and masculine, with amber eyes and white skin caught his eye. "Interesting, who is the tall blonde man Jane?"

"His name is Nekolai, and he's one of the few nomads we haven't had a full chance to meet."

"Who did he come with?"

"He and his sister arrived with the Cullens, they heard about the child and wanted to meet her when you summoned them."

"No special abilities?"

"No sir, they seem to be no threat to us."

"And did you meet his sister?" they shook their heads.

"He said she's extremely shy around strangers, but we didn't care." Aro laughed a little and stepped back a bit.

"Well done you two, you can go now." They bowed and left the room, Aro sat back on his throne and pondered in his head what made him so interested in that blonde man?

'Why does he look so familiar?'

Next chapter takes place with the wolves, and it may be short. Can't make many promises but it's going to be where the head wolf finds out about the other vampires and formulates a new part in his plan of revenge. Let me know what you think or want to happen, and what should I do soon about everyone thinking Neko and Celeste looking so familiar to them? What should happen to Celeste and her imprisonment? Let me know soon, later!
