    It was on the 8th week, 2 months after the Cullens skipped town that something changed. It was just after lunch and Bella was in a pretty foul mood, my guess was she had a falling out with Jacob, which was not good as he seemed to be the only thing keeping her alive these past weeks.My theory was confirmed when just as I was making myself a sandwich Jacob came fuming in through the front door. He was clearly heading for the living room where Bella was so I gave him a polite nod, "Sup." He nodded back and I resumed making my sandwich.Yelling ensured, by the sounds of it Bella had done something stupid and Jacob didn't approve, frankly, I couldn't care less, it's only when I heard another more familiar voice I froze. Alice.It took a moment to register but when it had, I was storming into the living room. Alice saw me instantly and shot me an apologetic look, just as I was about to show my sever dislike at the sight of the Cullen, the phone rang.Jacob picked it up said a few words and hung up shortly after, Bella seemed to get rather hysterical after that and my anger quickly extinguished. I grew bored with the situation, Bella being a mess was not uncommon and frankly, I wanted my sandwich.Alice was explaining something to Bella and abruptly turned to me. "I'm afraid you're going to have to come with us to Devika." Huh?"Wait, what? you're going somewhere?" Clearly I had missed some vital information.Bella snapped at me "We'll explain on the way, but we have to go now!"I scoffed "Yeah no. First of all, where exactly are you 'going' and secondly what on earth would make you think I'm gonna just 'tag along'?" My voice was heavy with annoyance.In response to my very valid questions, my darling sister simply grabbed my arm and pulled me outside and into a car. "Hey, what the f@ck Bella?" I tried to resist being shoved in the back of the car but didn't push very hard not wanting to hurt my twin, apparently, she didn't have the same issue, and nearly f@ck@ng snapped my wrist by twisting it as she shoved me in. "What the f@ck! Bella!" She ignored me and jumped in too.Alice didn't bother to provide any answers, simply starting the engine and driving away.We had been driving for several miles at an inhumane speed might I add, and if I was to guess we were going to the airport. Bella looked a nervous wreck and I wasn't sure what had been so important about that phone call but now was a good time to find out."So Sis, wanna tell me why you're so f@ck@ng psycho right now?" I was not a very subtle person.She responded with a glare, okay then. "I don't know why you're here, Alice just said you needed to come." She turned to Alice at the last bit.Alice piped up in her ever-cheerful voice that had always felt fake to me. "Devika, tell me, have you ever noticed anything strange about my family?"As Alice spoke, Bella began to look outraged "You're telling her?"Alice sighed "Yes Bella, I'm afraid she is very important and should things go sour in Volterra she might be the key."Yup-" I interrupted, answering Alice's previous question "-Y'all have weird coloured eyes, which I asked about once and Carlisle gave me some jacked answer like 'mutation' which was so stupid that I never even bothered to ask again."Bella looked offended at my insult to Carlisle to which I explained, "A mutation is an accident, a mistake of nature, if you will, for 7 separate individuals who are in no way related to being affected by the same exact mutation and to just happen to be found in the same family, b@llsh@t."Alice nodded "And anything else?""None of you eat when other people are watching, um... and some other weird things I can't think of right now. Why?" I fixed Alice with a pointed look, just wanting an answer to my question."Well..." Alice launched into an explanation about Vampires and how they are practically indestructible, and some other stuff like soulmates between vamps. The thing I was most interested in, however, was the first sentence Alice had uttered. "We are Vampires, all of us, Myself, Jasper, Edward, Rosalie, Emmett, Esme and Carlisle."It was a lot to take in and Alice seemed to realise this so she stayed quiet while we pulled up to the airport, letting me adjust. It made sense in a way, as we got seated on our plane and it started moving I let my mind wander over all the little things that hadn't made sense before and added in my new knowledge. Rose, Emmy and Jaz were always hella cold - Vampires didn't have blood circulation. Rose offered to 'take care' of a guy after she 'heard' me complaining about him harassing me, she was nowhere near me at the time - Vampires have super hearing. Emmett effortlessly picking me up like I weighed nothing - Vampires have super strength. And finally, Jasper, why he looked pained when surrounded by other students, Alice explained that Jaz was the newest to join their 'vegetarian' diet, which also explained their eyes.I spent the plane ride sorting out the new information that had been dumped on me and promptly decided when I saw Rose again, being a Vampire, I could, and would hit her in the face with a baseball bat, mainly for my own personal satisfaction, and I would be sharing the love with both Emmy and Jasper.Before I really registered it, we were off the plane and in a new car speeding down another road in Italy. The view was beautiful, we passed field after field that contained only red coloured flowers, causing it to look like we were travelling through the middle of a red sea.On the extremely fast ride into the city of Volterra I finally found out why we were there, apparently, Alice had seen a vision of Bella cliff diving, apparently, visions are a thing too. Alice thought Bella had died, Edward found out and the dumb guy had gone to Italy to have himself 'killed' destroyed by the Volturi, who were like Kings of the vampires. Good to know.We made it into the city walls and were immediately swarmed by people dressed in red cloaks mulling around. Fascinating. Bella didn't seem to have the same appreciation for the rather cool sight, "Ah, why are they all dressed in red?"No surprise Alice responded with her upbeat tone that really wasn't fitted for the situation, "It's saint Marcus day festival, the City is celebrating the eradication of Vampires from the city, it's the perfect setting really, the Volturi will never let him get far enough to expose himself.Oddly I wasn't really listening to Alice's words, as I had felt a strange feeling come over me when Alice said the saint's name, Marcus.We stopped and I saw my twin get out, I went to follow, but did so at a slower pace, because, f@ck running.I finished climbing the stairs to see Bella successfully convince Edward to step back from the light, and made my way over. On the way, I stopped to look down at a beautiful fountain to see thousands of coins making up the entire bottom of it. I paused and drew out a coin from my pocket, closed my eyes and wished, I hope that one day, someone, anyone, will slap some sense into that dumb b@tch Edward. With that, I flipped the coin and turned to look in Bella's direction. I grinned when I saw the furious glare that Edward was shooting me, Alice had told me of his powers, probably not the best way to test it out, but hey.I made my way over to them just in time for two men, probably vampires, to also make their way over. Edward spoke before they could, "It looks like I won't be requiring your services after all gentlemen.The taller of the two responded "Neither-the-less, Aro wants to speak with you"Edward snarled "No rules have been broken."This time it was the shorter one who responded, "Let's move this conversation to a more appropriate venue."Any further talking was interrupted by Alice's arrival. "Now, now boys we don't want to create a scene."I was strongly contemplating just leaving as I was annoyed with the whole situation, but something about the stone entrance seemed familiar and drew me in. Before I could make any kind of decision another figure joined us, she was rather short and appeared to look around thirteen, but when she spoke it had a scary edge to it, something that sounded strange coming from a little girl."Enough, Aro has sent me to see what is taking so long."At the presence of the girl, the other vampires relaxed and Edward seemed to lose his resistance, "Hello Jane."The girl, Jane, turned around and walked off, everyone then started to follow her. As we moved further into the building we were brought to an elevator. The machine looked odd within the dated stone structure but I didn't think on it much. Standing inside the elevator was... an experience. Jane stood confident with her back to the rest of us and the other two vampires stood to the sides, caging us in, although weirdly I didn't feel threatened.Bella obviously did not feel the same and clung to her boyfriend's arm, who himself looked rather unhappy with the situation.We arrived at another hallway and something about it seemed almost familiar. A woman created us as we walked by and I overheard Edward confirm her as human.We trudged along and it wasn't until Jane pushed open huge oak doors that I knew where I had seen this before, in my dreams. Okay, just bellow Vampires on the 'weird things that have happened to me today' list.Edward shot me a look which I couldn't decipher but I was soon distracted as I took in the room before me. It was the throne room from my dreams and sure enough the three beings, the vampire King's sat in their thrones. They were beautiful.As a boy who looked to be Jane's sibling greeted her, I greedily took in the Kings features. The middle king seemed almost giddy with a strange excitement that was simultaneously childish and frightening. He possessed long black hair like an oil spill and his eyes were a shocking red, like crushed rubies.The King to the first Vampires right had an angrier expression than the first and the same red eyes. The blond looked equally both feminine and masculine which served to confuse me immensely, how could one be so beautiful in both ways?The other Vampire had dark hair like the first, however, it came to a more oakey shade of brown and finished slightly shorter than the blonds. The first two looked to be in their late twenty, while this one looked as if he was slightly younger, however, despite his younger looks his posture told of many long years and he seemed entirely bored by the situation, which honestly same dude.I took my time examining everything my dreams had omitted, such as the shockingly red eyes they had, Jane and the other two vampires also had red eyes, but everything about the Kings in front of me appeared entirely otherworldly.The raven-haired King stepped down from his throne and approached Edward, I had taken to positioning myself behind the group, not hidden from sight but not drawing attention to myself either, after all, it wasn't anything to do with me, I was just here for the ride and to apparently creep on three super hot vampires."Bella is alive after all! What a pleasant surprise, I do love a happy ending," He paused, coming close enough to grasp Edwards hand "They are, so rare." At the sound of his silky voice, my mind momentarily blanked and I felt myself relax. What is going on?At Bella's confused look Edward explained, "Aro can read all your thoughts you've ever had, with just one touch." Aro smiled "Your quite the soul reader yourself Edward, although-" He glanced at Bella "You can't read Bella's thoughts." He then stepped a few paces back, causing me to subconsciously lean forward. "I would love to see if you are an exception to my gifts as well, my dear?" He held out his hand and posed his words like a question but it was obviously not a request.Bella looked at Edward before cowering as she placed her hand in his, and I only just managed to resist a snort, I really didn't think Edward was healthy for her. I ignored Edwards glare and focuses on Aro's reaction, for a few seconds he was simply hunched over my sister's hand before he straightened up and announced "Interesting, I see nothing."At his declaration, the fair-haired Kings attention seemed to be grabbed and he sat up straighter in his seat. His eyes locked onto mine and for a second I felt my heart stop. It passed, but the blond kept his eyes locked on me, his face fell into an infuriating handsome smirk and he seemed to suddenly be at ease with the world.My eyes snapped back to Aro as he continued to speak "I wonder... Let us see if she is immune to all our powers. Jane?"The girl from before threw him a questioning look but was interrupted by Edwards yell. "No!"She turned in time to see Edward launch himself at her and I felt a stab of panic as it looked as though Jane wouldn't get away in time. Just as Edward was about to reach her he stopped shot and arched weirdly in the air.He looked to be in great pain and with a quick glance to Jane who looked completely indifferent I concluded it was her doing.Bella started pleading for Jane to stop which I thought was pretty brave considering we were just humans surrounded by many, many vampires. To my surprise, Aro nodded at Jane to stop, then gestured to my sister, "Go ahead, my dear."There was a tense moment where everything fell quiet and Bella shifted her eyes between worriedly looking at Edward to fearful glances at Jane. The moment passed and was broken by Aro's laughter, it sent a shiver down my spine and I glanced back to the blond king to see that he also derived some enjoyment from Aro's delight."Remarkable, she confounds us all." Jane looked fairly put out and I almost felt sorry that it hadn't worked before I viciously reminded myself that Bella was my sister. Honestly, what is going on with me?Aro continued and for the first time addressed me "But it seems that the Cullens have brought another human in on our secret?"Edward tensed having returned to his position beside Bella "She knows nothing."I shot him an offended look before correcting him "B@tch please, for one, I just witnessed some really weird stuff, so even if Alice hadn't told me on the way over here, I would definitely know something." I stressed the word hoping he caught the hint of me currently not liking him very much. In response, he shot me one of his moody looks. Emo @ssh@l@.The blond-haired King chuckled at the interaction and Edward's eyes widened comically before he turned to Alice seemingly having a conversation via his spooky mind powers. I was once again captivated by the king on the right who was growing irritated by Eddie looking as though he knew something no one else did.Aro seemed to be intrigued by the other Kings interest in me but was also impatiently curious for the facts "If my dear Swan here, was not aware of our existence, why, pray tell, did you bring her with you?" He aimed the question at Alice but when she hesitated to respond I piped up."She said something about me 'being important' in case 'things went bad' which I'm assuming means I'm some sort of bargaining chip. Blondie growled at my statement and Alice looked panicked by my explanation desperately trying to back peddle."No, of course not, Devika was brought because I had a vision that she is a very important person to you." She seemed to be hinting at something which Aro did not appreciate as he was suddenly in front of her and had lost his happy exterior."If you are lying to us, Alice dear..." He trailed of threateningly."I'm not." With that Alice placed her hand in his and the two fell silent.Whilst Aro had gone over to Alice, My gaze had been drawn to the left throne and I saw myself staring into the eyes of the last king, unlike before. he seemed to be full of energy as though he couldn't be bothered trying to suppress it. He was unfairly beautiful just like the other two, which I reminded myself was not the time to notice.I cocked my head to the side as I examined them, unable to determine what it is about the three exactly that captivated me so much. I nearly missed it as Aro stepped back to his original position and glanced at the other Kings then looked back at me, elated.Why were they looking at me?"Because you are their mate," Edward answered my unspoken question and the three Kings immediately snarled clearly not liking the thunder being stolen out from under them. Wait, mate?Bella seemed to be thinking along the same lines as me and indignity snapped "What do you mean she's their mate?" She stressed 'their' and I knew she was put off because it implied that it was a 4-way relationship, despite the oddity of the situation I couldn't help but be offended. Polyamory is a thing, Bella. Alice shushed her.Suddenly all three of the Kings appeared in front of me, surprised I took an involuntary step back but regretted it after seeing the hurt in their faces.Aro smiled "Mi Amore, you must be very confused, please allow us to introduce ourselves, I am Aro and these are my brothers Caius," He gestured to the smirking king on his right "and Marcus." with a nod to the brunette on his other side."Um, it's nice to meet you, I'm Devika." Marcus seemed elated by the sound of my voice and I was equally captivated by them, however, as Aro had mentioned I was also very confused, so I shot Alice a questioning look. Caius saw and decided to clarify."Amore, you are our mate, our final piece. You complete us." I was beginning to feel overwhelmed and a little stressed."How do you know?" Something in me felt undeserving of the Kings before me and the insecurities along with lack of information was getting to me.I jumped slightly as Caius disappeared, then I felt arms wrap around my torso and a nose push into where my soldiers joined my neck, a deep purring sound came from behind me and all my anxieties seemed to vanish. I slumped against him and my eyes fluttered shut."Little one," My eyes opened again to see Marcus had been the one to speak, he too had come closer and was now pressed against my side, "Like Aro, I too have a gift, I possess the ability to see the bonds between people and our connection is most strong."Caius hummed in agreement before adding "And a Vampire knows their mate upon first glance, it is sewn into our very being." In a way that made sense and it also explained why Caius had reacted like he knew something I did not when we had first locked eyes.Seeing that I was accepting what was being told seemed to please my mates and I felt a stab of satisfaction at the thought.I let my eyes wander over to Aro who had yet to come closer, almost as though he was afraid to touch me. Seeing my look Aro flashed in front of me but still refrained from initiating physical contact. "Aro?" I reached out but he moved out of the way as my hand came to rest on thin air. At my hurt look Aro explained himself "Tessero, I do not wish to be invasive, my powers-" I suddenly understood and without a second thought I scoffed and moved toward him purposeful maintaining eye contact. He stood still as I approached and my other mates hung back observing.I reached out and let my hand gently rest in his palm. "Aro, I have no secrets, I would be honoured for you to see my life." Aro looked up at my words and almost looked like he might cry, I panicked thinking I had said the wrong thing, but a smile pulled onto his face and he gently wrapped his arms around me."Never Amore." I blushed remembering he could hear my thoughts. Releasing my from the embrace, but still keeping my hand enclosed in his, we walked back over to the others who quickly took up place beside me. I felt oddly powerful like this and as I assessed the situation I looked over to my sister and her friends.Bella's face was almost comical as she looked upon us with disdain, I wasn't sure exactly why but I'd question her about it later.Aro also turned to the Cullens and continued the trial "So what to do with you now?"Caius clearly impatient snapped "The law claims them."Aro seemed to consider this before nodding "It is true, you have told a human of our existence and then you left for months with no intention of coming back, leaving loose ends." He gave me a sorrowful look and I remembered that he had seen what had happened during the Cullens leave. "However, I am sure our mate would not appreciate us killing her sibling?" The question in his statement was obvious and I agreed "No I wouldn't," I didn't like my sister by any means but I did love her "But-"Edward growled before I could finish and It was my turn to send him a moody expression. Shut up you wombat.I continued "But! I do not want this trial to be taken any differently just because I'm your mate." "Devika!" My sisters outraged cry only caused my resolve to harden."It would not be fair, and I get the feeling that if it were to get out of an unjust verdict, others wouldn't be happy, considering you are the justice system of this world I believe."Alice piped up "Devika perhaps you shoul-"I was getting real tired of being interrupted. Let me finish my f@ck@ng sentence people! "That being said, If there is another option I would want to hear it."With that finally expressed I observed my mates reactions. Caius looked smug for some reason, Aro looked elated and Marcus held a gentle but threatening look in his eye, I knew the threat wasn't for me.Aro clapped his hands excitedly, "Why of course Amore, If Bella becomes a Vampire then there have been no laws broken and they are free to go. Unfortunately, it is not Edwards intention to grant her immortality and so I am afraid they must be disposed of." He finished on another sorrowful look, but I wasn't upset, it seemed logical.I was however immensely furious at Edward, @ssh@l@ is the reason Bella's going to die. Before anything could be done, Alice broke from her spot and approached Aro."Bella will be one of us, I have seen it." Aro eagerly took her hand and let his mind process the thoughts. Alice gave him a pointed look when he reopened his eyes "I'll turn her myself.""Fascinating, to see what you have seen, before it has happened. Go now. Make your preparations."Marcus spoke with the glint in his eye "Thank you for your visit."Needing to have the last word Caius spoke "We will return the favour, the Volturi do not give second chances, you are lucky you are not killed for attempting to manipulate our mate. It would be wise not to get on our radar again."Edward and Alice started walking toward the door but Bella gave me a confused look. "Aren't you coming?"Marcus answered her but looked at me the whole time "We will talk with Devika for now and work out what is to be done, no doubt you will not want to up uproot your life quite so abruptly."I let out a relieved sigh at his words, despite wanting very much to just hold my mates and never let them go, I only just met them and I would miss my Dad if I never got to see him again.The doors slammed shut and I realised that Alice, Edward and Bella had left, along with all the guards, it was now just my mates and I. --RoT--
