I can't believe I was that stupid. I believed his lies and fell for what seemed to be true love. Well I was
wrong. He obviously doesn't love me the way I love him. The way I thought I loved him. Now looking
back I fell in love with what he made out to be. Not who he really was. The way he left me laying
there on the cold, hard forest floor, made my decision all that easier. It took three weeks after that
horrible night to get out of bed. Another two weeks to start responding to people. Another month to
finally start realizing the truth, that I was wrong to love him and overall it wasn't really love, just lies.
And another week to finally find the will to stop replaying the short life we had shared together.
But through all this there was one thing he told me that never left my mind. The Volturi. The way he
told me they were the ones his kind went to, when they wanted to die. And the way I was feeling
then, it sounded like a perfect idea. I felt ridiculous, ashamed, and I had nothing else to live for. I
didn't care if Ed... He, said it was where 'his' kind went. It seemed like the only way I could get what I
wanted, a one way ticket from this life. I knew all too well I didn't have the will power to do it myself,
and knowing no one in forks would help me out; the volturi was my only choice.
Within an hour of my decision I was at the bank. With a withdrawal from my account, I had all the
money I needed to get me from the small, lonely town of forks to Italy. I then cancelled my account
before quickly returning home for the last time and writing my dad a goodbye letter. It was short and
a little harsh, but it said what I needed it to say without telling him where I was going. After doing
that, I packed a small suitcase for clothes and left. Not even bothering to even lock the door.
And so now here I sit, on the aeroplane waiting to touch down. It was my third aeroplane in the last
three days I had to go on to get to Italy, and the short 25 minutes I had left seemed to be taking
forever. I had used almost all my money I had taken from my bank account, the money that was one
day meant to be going towards university, and I was lucky to have just enough of what I thought
would get me a taxi towards Volterra.
Finally, after what seemed like a life time, the flight attendant called over the loud speaker
announcing the decent of the plane. As he plane went down I looked out the window, and the view
was amazing. It took my breath away, and I had to admit it was beautiful. The hills and the trees that
covered them created the perfect atmosphere. And with the night sun setting behind them, I thought
it created the perfect surrounding for my final hours, and that made me smile for the first time in
2
what seemed like month. This was also the first time I had gone anywhere outside the borders of
America, and with a quick thought I realized it would also be my last. As I stood off the plane the
flight attended smiled at me and said "have a nice day", I gave her a quick smile back, before going
up the ramp that lead to my bags.
I was in luck. My bag came out just as I walked from the plain into the terminal. Without a look back,
I walked out the airport doors and called a taxi. I was surprised at how fast a taxi showed up, but as I
jumped it and told the man the address, it was all forgotten. As I was sitting in the back seat, sleep
finally caught up with me. I hadn't slept in what must have been three days and I found myself falling
asleep on the way to Volterra.
I was woken as the taxi driver shook me, saying something to me.
"Yeah?" I answered finally realizing where I was.
"Sorry miss for waking you, but we are here" I was shocked the man spoke English but as I looked out
the window I could see we were defiantly in the city. I handed him the rest of the money I had, not
checking if it was enough, and got out pulling my bags behind me.
Volterra was nothing like I expected, it was old and the building that surrounded me were beautiful.
They must have been built over 1000 years ago and they still looked as good as they would have back
then, though it was dark under the clouds that covered the moon, I could still see the detail in the
buildings. I didn't spend a long time admiring them; I had a bunch of vampires to persuade. And with
that in mind I left to find the volturi. But the truth is I had no idea what I was looking for, so I started
to head in what seemed to be the right direction.
The small narrow lane I walking along gradually became wider. And before long I found myself
standing in a large square built around a water fountain that still run in the middle. I looked around
and found what looked like a clock tower. I didn't know if that was it or not, so I decided to wait till I
found someone, so I could ask them. I sat on the rim around the fountain and placed my head in my
hands on my lap. I was still tired, but I didn't want to sleep.
It wasn't long till I spotted a shadow heading down one of the lanes. Leaving my bags at the fountain
I took off running towards the shadow. I ran down the street and found the owner to the shadow
turning the corner about 100 metres down the small lane. I ran after it and as I turned the corner I
found myself running straight into the person I was following. I fell to the ground, and looked up and
what now seemed to be a girl. Her skin was pail while, even in the darkness and she was incredible
3
beautiful. She was around the same height as my once best friend Alice. And with that I knew I had
found who I was looking for.
"May I help you?" she asked in a voice that sounded like bells. It took me awhile for me to find my
voice.
"Yes! I need your help! I know what you are!" I realized I was shouting at her, so I turned to a whisper
"please, the volturi is my only chance."
The girl's eyes grew wide, "what did you say?" she was defiantly shocked at what I had said. I knew
there was probably no human who knew about the volturi, and it shocked her when I used there
name.
"please, I don't know your name, but I know about the volturi, I know about your kind, and I need
your help, I need you to kill me" the girl let out a small giggle, before turning serious, she glared at
me for about three seconds before her face turned into sheer terror.
I didn't understand, but I thought she was afraid I had told others about who she really was, so I
quickly without thinking blurted out "please, please help me. Don't worry I haven't told any other
human about you, so there is no need to be afraid about that. I just really need someone to end my
misery."
The girl continued to look at me, "wait. You really don't feel a thing?"
"Feel what?" I was confused, what was I meant to feel. I had been thought 100 different emotions in
the last few months let alone, but what now, right here was I meant to feel?
"Oh my goodness!" she let out a small giggle before holding out her hand, "hi, I'm Jane!" a grabbed
her hand and she helped pull me up, "wow, Aro is simple going to love you!" I didn't know who Aro
was, I just remembered the name from when Ed... he, had told me about Carlisle's past and how he
once lived with the volturi, one of them being Aro.
"Nice to meet you Jane, I'm Bella. But may I ask, why is he going to love me?"
She looked at me for a moment before answering, "wait, you don't know? I thought you knew about
us?"
"I do, I know your vampires, and I know you can help me. But I don't know everything about you
obviously; I only know the basic things about you. I know you're the closest thing your world has to
royalty. I know you enforce the law, one of the reasons you should kill me. I know too much. And I
4
know it's one of your laws for us humans not to know about you. So you really should just kill me
now." She looked at me with shock slightly showing on her face, but that disappeared quickly, and
was replaced with a grin.
"Im so sorry Bella, but I can't kill you" I felt the disappointment wash through me, and I grabbed the
closest wall for support. If the volturi wasn't going to kill me, who was? I couldn't live a life like the
one I had lived in the last few weeks back in forks. I needed to end my past and this was the only way
I could think of.
"Bella," Jane said interrupted my thoughts, "Bella I can't kill you, for one I'm not allowed to in the
walls of Volterra, even though you smell simple mouthwatering, And two Aro would kill me if I don't
introduce you to him. You see, I know you know about vampires, and I know you know about powers
some vampires have, and well I am able to create illusions of pain. All humans and vampires usually
fall in sheer agony. But you my dear," I looked up at her, looking into her blood red eyes "well you
didn't even flinch, and with that talent, I only must show you to Aro. I know he would be very
pleased. So please..." she said holding out her hand for me "please follow me, and I'll see what I can
do." I reached out for her hand and took a step forward.
Within seconds she had grabbed me, pulling me into her arms and taken off, it felt like we were
flying as she ran down the lane. I felt us drop, and the temperature suddenly became colder. I
assumed we were under ground. There was little light so I couldn't see a thing. But soon enough I
spotted the light at the end of the tunnel, which soon turned into two big wooden doors.
Jane stopped just outside, and placed me down back on my feet. She knocked twice and the doors
slowly opened. The inside was beautiful. Just like what you would expect a palace to look like. Jane
gestured me forward, and together we walked towards an elevator. We stepped in and a didn't even
know if we were going up or down, but suddenly the doors opened to reveal to me another room
just like the one before, though this one looked more like a waiting room. We continued to walk
forward towards another two big doors.
This time Jane didn't even have to knock before the doors began to open. They revealed on the other
side what seemed to be a throne room. "This way" Jane said leading me in. There sat in one of the
chairs that looked to be fit for a king, sat a man with very pale skin that almost looked translucent.
He had very long and jet black hair, and when he sat up and walked over to meet Jane, it seemed as
though he was gliding. Jane looked over to me and signalled with her hand to stay there. I stopped as
I watched her walk over to meet Aro. The embraced in a quick hug and kissed each over on both
cheeks.
