Red. All I saw was a hazy red film in front of my eyes after Isabella told me what Edward had done to my mate. I knew instinctively that my inner vampire had come out and was controlling me. He had pushed me, the logical and compassionate side, to the back of our mind and placed me in the cage he himself had been in just moments ago.
The inability to control my body was a bit disconcerting; I couldn't see straight, only the red haze, I couldn't hear anything but muffled voices and screams, I was not able to control how my arms and legs reacted.
I felt the force holding me disappear, then I felt my legs moving me to a destination only known by my beast. I could feel myself touching something and pulling on it. More muffled screaming. Some muffled speech from my beast. I feel myself touch and then pull at something else; more screams accompany the action. I feel heat on my face from something, then… silence.
Through the clearing haze, I hear the painful whimpers from my mate and try to go to her, but something has me frozen in place which makes me angrier. The haze that was lifting from my vision and allowing me to gain some control back, came back with a vengeance forcing me once again into the cage at the back of my mind.
CPOV (his inner vampire)
Must. Avenge. Mate.
Rip. Tear. Burn.
Must. Get. Free.
SNAP
Free Finally.
I have been trapped in that fuckin cage for over 350 years without any way of getting out. No more. That little bastard manipulated and used MY MATE!
HE. WILL. PAY!
Now I just need to be free from whatever is keeping me from moving. I watch silently as the Major teaches the child a lesson about messing with another man's woman. I have to say it was quite entertaining, except when he ripped Edward's man jewels off; I mentally cringed when he did that.
I watched as the Major finished and walked toward his venom siblings and Isabella and proceeded to talk and banter with the latter. I was getting really irritated at being ignored when I really wanted my own revenge against that child Edward. As my irritation peaked, I let loose a growl from deep within my chest to get Isabella's attention and to voice my displeasure at being detained.
She had the decency to look at least a little embarrassed for forgetting me before she murmured out a, "Sorry Papa Incest" and nodded to a black haired vampire.
As soon as I felt the restricting force lift, I sprinted toward the ungrateful bastard who manipulated my mate and disrespected me. I'm his fucking coven leader! His Goddamn ALPHA and he disrespected me and my mate. My compassionate side has been too lenient on him. Now I will destroy him. He will be made an example of so no others will dare cross me.
When Edward noticed that it was me racing towards him, a glimmer of hope sparkled in his now onyx eyes. This caused me to chuckle; the boy actually thinks that I'm going to help him after what he did to my mate, how foolish of him. The first thing I do when I reach his side is kneel down near his ribcage so that I can easily whisper into his ear.
"I find it amusing that you hope that I am here to help you. My other side may be compassionate and lenient towards you, but I will not be. You manipulated my mate into betraying me with a power you never informed me you had. You may have been my first companion in this existence, but your constant disrespect for me is inexcusable. I am your Alpha you little shit! My other side has let you get away with too much; this was the final straw. For your crimes of manipulating and sexually abusing your Alpha's mate, abuse of a vampiric gift, and disrespecting your Alpha for the last 109 years, you will be put to death by my hand" I whisper this quietly, but dangerously into his ear.
The only response I get out of Edward is a frightened whimper. His coal black eyes show nothing but fear and acceptance; there is no regret or apology there. This just throws me deeper into my rage and I move down to Edward's feet to start his punishment.
I applied the same technique used by the Major on his hands and arms to his legs and feet. I started by slowly pulling off each individual toenail and was a little disappointed when I realized that Edward was too weak to scream out in pain due to the venom loss caused by his other injuries. All I got were pathetic whimpers and moans of pain. Oh well. I guess that will have to do. The next thing I do is remove his toes one-by-one and throw them into the fire to join the rest of him in hell. The next things to go are his feet. After that, I decided to prolong this satisfying experience by slowly breaking every last bone he had. Even with as little energy as Edward had, he still yelled out in agonizing pain when I did that. My next tasks went by quite quickly because I was getting bored and really wanted to be with my mate and make sure she was ok. I took the rest of his legs off joint by joint before I did the honor of removing his head from his body and making him watch as he burned to nothing but ash. After that I simply threw his head into the flames and said my final goodbye before letting my calmer half have his control back.
As he was coming back to the forefront of our mind, I heard our mate whimper in pain. Alarmed, I shove my 'pussy side' back into the cage and immediately try to locate my mate. When I try to run to her, I find that I am once again frozen in place by an unknown source. I can still hear my mate's sounds of pain and it just makes me whimper out in desperation because I can't reach her to protect her. When I finally locate my sweet Alice, I'm thrown into a full blown rage. How did this happen? I should have seen something. Was I so into torturing Edward that I didn't notice my mate's pain? That thought halts my rage and turns it into shame. I start whimpering again, this time in shame and self loathing.

As soon as Doc started ripping into Edward, Isabella gave me the signal I had been waiting for. It was time for me to show Alice what happens to someone who messes with my mate. Every one's attention was either on the Doc or in the conversation between Bella and my mate so I could torture and maim the little bitch without interference.
She saw me stalking towards her like a cougar stalks an elk, but she didn't move a muscle for fear that Miss Bella would punish her again. I could see the fear in her amber eyes, taste it on my tongue; it made the venom pool in my mouth. I knew that I couldn't kill her, but damnit, I was going to make it difficult for her to be put back together again.
Reaching her, I bent forward so that my mouth was right next to her ear,
"You think its funny changing people's futures to fit your will?" her only response was a whimper. "I could have been living a happy life with my mate for the past 40 years if you hadn't interfered for your own selfish desires. For your crimes against me and my mate, I am going to make sure you feel all of the pain that we have felt over the years. Then I am going to make sure that you never feel complete again" my voice got more lethal sounding as I continued to speak. All I got from Alice were pathetic little frightened whimpers. "Not going to say anything? Ok then."
With that said I wrenched her left arm from her body. Her screams of pain were like music to my sadistic, revenge seeking ears. Looking over her shoulder at her mate, I make sure he is still engrossed in his task before I move onto phase two. Taking her left arm in my hand, I proceed to disassemble it; starting with her fingers and moving upward. With another quick glance at Doc, I perform the same procedure on the Pixie's right arm.
At this point, Alice's screams have died down to pain filled whimpers because of the venom loss. Her eyes are now a dull black color, which proves just how much venom she has lost.
After my now routine check on Doc, I kick Alice in the knee caps, shattering them and causing her legs to give out on her. Walking to her prone form I kneel down and drag my fingernail from the top of her thighs to the base of her toes and then seal them with my venom, making sure that she will have permanent scars to remind her not to fuck with me. Everything from there was pretty straight forward, I ripped off her legs in sections and then ripped off her feet. At that point in her torture, I decided to take my consolation prize; her big toe off her right foot. I think I'll turn it into a keychain. Screw the soft and fuzzy good luck rabbit foot, I've got my very own lucky sparkly vampire toe.
When I was done with her I placed her toe in my pocket and went back to my place in the ranks, waiting for Bella to properly introduce me to my mate.
A few moments later, the Doc was done destroying Fuckward and was coming out of his rage. Of course, that didn't last long cuz he finally heard his mate's pain filled cries. Thank God Miss Bella was paying attention cuz she was able to get Mitchell to freeze him before he could reach Alice. Now she just needs to calm him down enough to think rationally so he doesn't act before thinking.

I knew that once Carlisle heard his mate's cries of pain, he would search her out and destroy the threat against her. So, naturally, I protected Vickie by freezing him so he couldn't do anything rash.
When he started whining and whimpering in shame, my heart, reluctantly, broke for him. It kind of pissed me off that my heart had forgiven him for leaving so easily. Even my instincts and inner vampire had forgiven him. My inner badass kept telling me that I should go to him and comfort him; that he was my soul father. My head scoffed at that, but it lost the battle and I found myself almost subconsciously walking toward a distraught Carlisle.
With my traitorous heart and inner vamp leading me, I stopped in front of Doc and kneeled down to his level.
"Carlisle, I know you're hurtin' right now and I know you feel helpless seein' your mate like that, but you need to realize that she deserved her punishment. She nearly ruined two peoples' lives. If James hadn't changed Vickie, Jasper would have had to live the rest of her existence without a mate. She felt no remorse. Vickie had every right to punish her. More importantly, Vickie has the right to kill her for manipulating the mate bond for her own reasons. You are lucky that I begrudgingly respect you cuz that's the only thing that saved her life. Not to mention my damn inner vamp has designated you my soul father. I'll explain that later; right now you need to calm down and push your inner vamp to the back of your mind. Once your eyes turn gold, I will release you so you can put your mate back together. Oh, and don't freak out when you can't find a toe. Vickie is keeping it to prove a point." I told him softly yet bitterly (Bitterly cuz my inner vamp made me comfort him).
It took the good Doctor around ten minutes, but his eyes turned gold and he calmed way down. Like I promised, I had Mitchell release him and, once he was free, he ran toward Alice and immediately started helping her put her pieces back together.
With that, I walked back over to my Peter and then faced the rest of the group. It was finally time to reveal who everyone's true mates were and then relax for the day. After that, we would start the long, boring run to the opposite side of Canada to start training and getting familiar with each other so that we would be ready for Maria when she showed up.
