Marie POV
I was curled up with Hari, his eyes closed as he slept. Jacob was asleep on the sofa, his tongue hanging out of his mouth, and I didn't know where Billy was. Mama had been convinced by Alice to go save Edward, so me and Hari had been left here so the Volturi didn't discover us. Just as I was about to drop off the phone rang. I raced to it, wanting to talk to Mama, but Jake woke up and got there first. They spoke for a very short time, and I pulled on Jake's pant leg when he hung up.
''Come on, we're going to Volterra. Wake up Hari and get some clothes for yourself. Bring anything you might need, too, and for heaven's sake, don't wake Dad.''
I nodded and nudged Hari till he woke up, his thoughts questioning.
''Come on, Hari. We're going to a place called Volterra?''
Where's that? His thoughts questioned. I couldn't answer him.
We got onto a big plane, and Hari, the lazy thing, fell asleep again, along with Jacob. I was the only one awake, so I decided to listen to the music Mama got me on my IPod. Eventually, I fell asleep, curling up to my twin.
When I woke up, we were in a car, with a big man, and smaller man. The smaller one noticed I was awake, and smiled.
''Ciao, Piccola.'' He said, hugging me gently. ''I am Demetri, and this is Felix.'' He said, motioning towards the big man.
I nodded politely, and noticed Felix was trying to talk to Hari.
''He doesn't talk much. He can't see, and he has this thing called anxiety?'' I told Felix, taking Hari's hand onto my own, glaring at Felix, with my brown eyes.
''You do not look like twins.'' He stated. It's true, we don't. I have brown hair, the same colour as my father James's hair was, and my skin is a pale colour. Hari, on the other hand, has black hair, and dark brown skin, like his father Laurent did.
''No, but we are.'' I said, letting Hari smell my hair.
''What are your names?'' Demetri asked. I was about to answer, when Jacob cut in, rudely.
''Their names are Marie, and Hari, not that you need to know.'' He growled.
I frowned, and looked out the window, at the city coming up to us. Demetri saw what I was looking at, and cocked his head, when Hari gasped in awe.
''How can he see it, if he is blind?'' He asked, curiously. I pressed my hand to his, and showed him what I was seeing.
''I can read minds, and project my thoughts to others.''
He smiled, and shook his head, slightly. ''Never heard of that gift.''
''That's because it's new, and it's all mine!'' I giggled at his face, and he rolled his eyes. Hari nuzzled into me, quiet, and I kissed his cheek, hugging him happily. A gunshot rang out, and I fell against Hari, my head feeling heavy, and my chest hurting, as shouts and screams grew quieter. My world went black.
Hey guys, sorry for my absence, my Word was updating, and then my computer broke, so I couldn't write this chapter. I know it is short, but there will be longer chapters later. R&R!
