Prologue

My name is Willow Kucriarro and I am a vampire high breed and my life literally sucks. I have once again found myself running from the Volturi.
Ever since I was born they have been chasing me all over the world. They don't want me alive unless I'm on their side... there's two problems to that. I'm a vegetarian, and I'm not that cruel.
I've been searching the world for vampires like me and no luck, but I have heard of these.... Cullens that live in Forks, Washington that are almost like me. So I enrolled in Forks High School and decided to give them a little fright.
So my adventure begins.....

Chapter 1

Staring.... always staring at me, you would think they would like a new face every now and then. I had to ignore it, I was on a mission to find these Cullens and their secrets.
When I felt someone tap on my shoulder I quickly turned around and almost knocked the guy over. I caught him with lightning speed (oh crap) and pulled him up. He looked a little bewildered for a moment.
“Wow! You move freaking fast!” The kid said.
“When I want to I can. Now I'm trying not to be rude but who the hell are you?” I sounded harsh even in my vocabulary. “I'm sorry people are getting on my nerves today.”
“ I- it's fine. I'm Nathan and I probably shouldn't have snuck up on you anyway.”
Man, this guy is nice but I'm just not sure about him. “It's fine I shouldn't have snapped on you like that. People just keep staring at me like Imm'a freak.”
“Don't worry about it, I understand. I just wanted to see if you needed help finding the lunch room...”
I knew exactly where it was but I decided to be nice to him. “I guess I could use the extra help.” I smiled at him with my perfect teeth.
When he started talking to me about his life and his friends I felt a pang in my head.... like there was a presence in it. I automatically pushed it back and looked behind me, but I didn't see anyone who could have done it. Maybe I was still too use to having Aro trying to get into my head.
I smoothly slid back into the conversation with Nathan again trying to ignore the fear I had for who ever tried to get into my head.
When I sat down at lunch (away from Nathan I may add) and these teenagers caught my eye. They were beautiful, and quite.... and not eating. Crap,I thought. I picked up my tray and walked to dump it (I wasn't going to eat it anyway) but one of the teenagers started walking up to me. I knew he was coming so I walked the other direction on purpose... this guy had a strong build and looked like he could easily snap me in half.
“Hey, new girl.” He whispered under his breath, but I could easily hear it and he knew it.
“Not here please” I said just as quietly back to him.
“Really? In the hallway then, since you said please.” He said right back.
I nodded my head and looked into his head, his name was Emmet and he was part of the Cullens. “Okay... Emmet.”
That stopped him, and before I knew it I was surrounded by his two brothers in the Hallway. That's when I noticed who had tried to get into my head, Edward. Time for a little pay back then....
I slammed his head and his brothers with a mental line of electricity. They all crumbled in pain from the impact. I let go right away because just doing it once made pain go up my through. I could almost feel my irises go darker. The pain didn't only go to my through this time, it hit me right through my body as well. I staggered and then I was being picked up and out the doors in a flash.
Emmet threw me on the ground and I was hit by a wave of pain... again. This has never happened before! I started panicking from the pain and Jasper felt it in my mind and immediately stopped all of their attempts to get me back to their world.
I felt myself collapse on the forest floor in a wreathing ball of agony. This time when I felt the pang in my head I let it come, I had no strength to stop it anyway. I felt myself drifting into a bright world that would bring even more pain, I knew it. My sixth scenes told me.
I was done, I knew it, I felt it. I was so out of it that I didn't realize that I had been picked up and was rushing through the forest at amazing speed. I was still in pain when I felt us enter a house, then all went bright white and I was in the sweet bliss of nothingness.

Chapter 2

hen I started to wake I felt something cool and wet against my forehead. It felt wonderful against my hard skin. I opened my eyes and they were met with sunlight and I had to blink to get the dots outta my eyes. I finally got the strength to get into a sitting position and see who it was taking care of me.
Unknowingly I went into their head and got their name. Carlisle. “Thank you very much Carlsile.” I whispered almost silently. I saw his eyes open wider.
“She's gifted we just aren't sure with what yet.” I heard a voice say.
I twisted with lightning speed to see that it was Edward that had spoken.
“I wouldn't have needed too if you guys would have just left me alone. We were in the middle of school for crying out loud!” I knew I had rambled on but I didn't care. I was nervous. “Well, I was looking for your clan anyway.”
Carlisle finally spoke, “Why were you looking for us child. We have done nothing to you.”
I quickly spoke, “NO! No, I just wanted to find you guys to see if you were vegetarians like me. I have never met any other vampires that are and I had only heard of you.”
“Your not a vampire.” Edward spoke softly.
“I'm not only a vampire is what you should be saying.” I whispered.
“What are you?” Carlisle asked.
“I don't even know you guys! Why in the hell should I tell you!” I nearly screeched.
Everyone jumped a little, surprised at my outburst. They all noticed I was shaking and trying to calm down. That's when I noticed Carlsile studying me very closely. I stared into his eyes and I knew that he knew what I was, a high breed.
“May I take an educated guess then?” Carlsile said quietly.
“I-I don't know. I don't like people that are smart to take any guesses about me.”
Just then Jasper walked in and I had a strange feeling he was about toblurt it out so I compelled him not to say anything. I knew who he was, what he had done, and how smart he was at telling the truth about people.
“She's- Sh-. I'm sorry I forgot. Hold on.” He sat there bewildered for a minute. Studying me with an intense stare.
“You shouldn't do that” Edward snapped out.
“Get the HELL outta my head mind reader!” I yelled at him.
He just kept staring at me. “You can block me, why yell at me over it?”
Damn, he was right. Somehow I knew that he always was. So insteed of answering I stared at him until I felt a calm wave come over us. Then I felt the snap, my control over Jasper broke so suddenly I gasped.
“She's a high breed between a shape shifter and a vampire.,” He spoke smoothly. “and she's a lot stronger than what we are giving her credit for. I feel it.” He started to slowly go around me, like a hunter and it's pray. “She controls the elements.”
I lunged at him so fast even he couldn't comprehend what had happened till it was too late. He went flying through the open doorway that a women had walked through milliseconds before. I stared in shock at what I had just done. I never lose my temper, NEVER.
“Oh my god! I am so sorry, I lost it..” I kept blubbering on until the women came over and comforted me. Why? I have no living clue.
“Shhh. It's okay, it's okay. We know it was an accident, I'm amazed that you can even move that fast anyway. We all are.” She took my face into her hand and looked at me. “What is your name child?” She spoke softly.
“I'm Willow Kucriarro” I whispered still staring into her beautiful gold eyes, and that means I saw it when her eyes went wide.
“Your her, aren't you?” She questioned me.
“What do you mean?” I asked very puzzled.
I heard a flutter and a small women with pixie-like hair was sitting on the floor not too far from me.
“Your the one from my vision. You are running from the voluri because you are powerful and not normal. You protect us from the worst after they find out your here, though with the wolves that's a different story.” Her angel like voicesaid.
“I know I'm powerful, and I've only just began practicing my powers. I am running from the Volturi because they either want me on their side or dead. I don't give up and that's why I ran.” I whispered almost to myself. “I have never gave up, and I never will.”
“Can you turn into a wolf?” Esme asked politely. When I didn't answer she lifted my face and stared me right in the eyes. “Are you the impossible high breed?”
I trembled, “Yes.”

Chapter 3

In my whole existence I never though I would see so many vampires go so still. They were expecting it though so they recovered quickly enough. Carlisle and Edward started talking so fast I couldn't even understand what they were saying. Alice went completely blank.
I was in so much shock that they knew who I was and that I didn't realize that Esme was shacking me trying to get me out of my thoughts.
They know who I am... What am I going to do now? I'm a danger to them. Memories flickered through my head at such speed that Edward was getting dizzy.
“Calm down a bit please! Nothings going to happen.” Edward sharply said to me.
“You don't know me or what the Volturi have tried to do to get me! They will stop at nothing to get me! If Demitri or Felix finds me I'm screwed.” I screeched.
“You wont be found, it's too hard to even track you down. I couldn't even find you until you were right under my nose, and I'm VERY good at tracking people.” Jasper told me.
“I know I'm hard to find. Aro has sent some of his people for me and I haven't seen them for a while now.” I whispered.
Edward finally spoke up, “If you know then why are you freaking out?”
“Because, if they find me Aro will try to get me on their side, and you know how Chelsea is.” I told them. “It takes a lot for her to get into my head but she can get into it. Last time she did she collapsed in pain.”
“See? You are going to be fine. Don't worry.” Esme said. “If they can't find you, they can't find out that we are going to help you.”
“I don't want you guys to get into trouble, I'll just have to practice harder to stay away from them and to hone my powers. I will not have more people die for me, I've made the mistake once, and I don't intend on making it again.” I flat out told Esme.Jasper finally spoke again, “We can protect ourselves just fi-.” He stopped talking because Alice went stone still and her eyes were distant.
The whole room held their breath as she sat there, so quiet I could have been sure she would never talk again. She wasn't even breathing. When we finally saw her twitch we all let out the breath that we didn't realize that we were holding. She eyes cleared after an eternity of waiting in silence.
“They aren't going to come for a while, they can't find you at all.” Alice finally spoke.
I finally let out the breath that I was holding, “That's something at least.” I whispered. “Guess there's only one thing left to do.”
“What would that be?” Edward spoke. It looked like he was in pain from just saying that, I guess he doesn't say that often around here.
“I have go talk to the wolves.” I told him.
“Edward and Jasper will go with you, but they can only go to the treaty line.” Carlisle spoke with authority.
“Fine but if something happens they are not to interfere.” When Carlisle started to speak I cut him off, “It's part of the plan I have.”
“Fine but you are still weak, remember that.” Carlisle said
“Not when I'm in wolf form.” I whispered.

Chapter 4

We were standing on the boundary of their land looking out into the woods, just waiting to see if they were out there already.
“They already know that there is another vampire here, they just haven’t met you yet.” Edward told me.
“Well they are about to. I'll see you guys later, but right now I got to go.” It felt like I was almost saying good bye... that's a first for me.
I took off into the woods at an amazing speed trying to catch any of their scents. The rocks and dirt didn't affect my feet, the branches felt like almost nothing, the cold air was warm to me.
All of a sudden I heard a piercing howl from deep in the woods. It's time I thought. I rushed into a clearing and sat, just waiting for them to come. Just breath. Nothing is going to go wrong. I thought calmly.
When they surrounded me I stood up very slowly, trying to put it into my body language that I'm not to harm you or anyone.
When one lunged at me I spun, kicking them so hard I heard his whole rib cage crack. A shrieking whine hit the air so loud that I had to cover my ears. Then a big black wolf hit me from the side sending me rocketing through the air.
I stood up calmly with my eyes slowly darkening, the gray wolf whined at what she saw. I started shaking again, so bad that the ground was moving. The black wolf lunged at me and I flew up, feeling my insides break apart and tear through me. I let myself go, I turned wolf.
When me and the wolf collided there a defining crack that hit the air. I had flipped back and landed a major blow with my hind legs, sending him flying into a tree bigger than me. He didn't get up.
The next wolf was one that was brown, bigger than who I figured was the alpha that I just took down. He hit me but I didn't budge. I whipped around and bit him so hard I heard this leg crack, but he got back up.
We circled each other, waiting to see who would move, he was limping... and bad. I stared at him, letting myself turn vampire once again (my clothesstay in place unlike theirs). I can tell that my eyes stayed fairly dark even after the change. I haven't eaten in a long time.
I noticed that the black wolf was gone, and the brown wolf had stopped circling me. He had stopped trying to attack me. So, the black wolf is the alpha... A human finally appeared from the forest, and it looked like he was hurting. I looked into his mind to figure out his name, I had no need to look further. His name was Sam and he was the alpha.
“Who are you and why are you here?” Sam spoke sharply.
“I'm Willow Kucriarro, and I'm not here to fight you but to warn you.” I spoke softly. “I had no intention to hurt you.”
“When you come onto our land you do, and how the hell are you able to turn into a wolf?” Sam spoke in disbelief.
“I am a high breed, half vampire, half shape shifter.” I spoke with the age I was leaking into my voice.
“That's impossible...” Sam whispered.
“It's not as you can see for I am one. An accident happen when I got bit by a vampire, and it almost killed me. So, yes, it can happen.” I spoke sharply.
A new human stepped in after he changed, “It's not, if we get bit by them we die.” I looked into his mind.... Jacob.
I ran at full speed and picked him off his feet (even though he was taller than me by a good foot and a half. “Listen to me. I do not make a habit of lying to people.” I spoke with a gleam in my eye.
All the wolves tensed ready for a fight, knowing that if they did I would damn near kill them. I felt the tension in the air and turning it down unknowingly. I wasn't in the mood for a distraction. “You either listen to me or I can sit back and watch you and your pack get slaughtered. It makes no difference to me, I'm doing this outta the kindness of my heart.”
Jacob finally spoke, “What do you mean? You can't take as all at once.” He sounded unsure.
“I'm not talking about me you idiot and I could very well take all of you. I'm talking about the Volturi. They are going to start hunting you down one-by-one.” I spoke, my face not even two inches from his face.“Who are they?” This time Sam spoke up sounding a little worried. “Please drop Jacob, he's an idiot just like you said.
I felt nice now that I had their attention, so I dropped him. “They are the leaders of the vampire world. They have “special” vampires in their mists. They are only the strongest and oldest vampires of our time. I should know because they've been trying to catch me for the last hundred years.” It felt weird speaking of my age to others, I've never liked it.
It was the first time I've heard the whole pack go silent. Not even some of the youngest of the group said anything.
“Why are they after us?” Sam spoke almost silently.
“They think that you are werewolves, but your not. Your shape shifters, but they don't really care. You look like one so they want to kill you.” I added quietly.
“When?” Jacob spoke.

“I don't know....”

Chapter 5

Less than five minutes later I found myself in the alpha's home. It was weird being in a wolf's house, I liked it though, it was something I've never really done. His wife was really sweet too, though it bothered me that she had a scar on her face, no doubt from Sam himself. I missed having a family, I get so lonely sometimes. Seeing this pack of wolves acting as a family made me have a hole in my heart that was too deep to heal.
“So, tell us all what you know about this... Volturi.” Sam spoke causally. I knew that he was trying to act calm, to keep me under control. It was sweet but I didn't need it.
“The Volturi are ancient vampires that are not to be messed with, I wanted to get that out because I know how you are and how easily they can kill you.” I said. When Same started to speak I cut him off. “They have powers that can turn you blind in less than a second, they have shields that stop you and confuse you at the same time. They are not to be recon with.”
“Do you not think that we can not take care of ourselves? We are strong, we know what we are made of.” Jacob spoke sharply.
“Jacob, sit down and shut the hell up!” Sam yelled. “We can take them if you can.”
“I can't, why do you think I'm running? Chelsea is very persuasive, if I get near her they have a chance of getting me.” I spoke softly. “Alec and Jane are very strong, they can cut off all your senses or put you in such a wreathing ball of agony you wish that someone would kill you.” I was talking to myself but the whole room had gone quite. “Aro can get into you mind with just a touch, Felix and Demitri are so strong and so great at tracking that it's a miracle I've haven't been caught yet.”
Silence, not even nature was speaking. I sat dazed, not even realizing that I had gave away some of the vampire worlds secrets. I went into a kind of shock, not speaking, just sitting.... staring at nothing.
Sam finally spoke, “Teach us what you know, we have a right.”My head snapped up, my eyes had gone black. “There is too much to learn and not enough time. Even if we-.”
Sam cut me off, “I really don't care how much time we have or not, power teach us or something. I will not have my pack slaughtered by a bunch of freaky vampires!” He was steaming.
“I don't know if I can, I've told you the main vampires that you need to watch for. All you have to do now is train and train until your as strong as you can get.”
“Then that's what you will teach us.” Sam spoke in confirmation.

I took a breath, “I guess it is...” My nightmare was slowly unfolding.

Chapter 6

My time these days are split between the Cullens and the wolves. I was always either training and honing my powers or I was training the wolves. I don't know how many broken bones I got within an hour of training on either end but it's a lot.
Today I was training with the wolves first thing. I was heading to the boarder when I heard something... I tilted my head trying to listen. Feet?... I just ignored it, probably just some animal, I thought calmly. No reason to get worked up over nothing.
I heard it again.... but closer...... I whipped around, looking deeply into the woods, still seeing nothing. Then I heard a noise behind me. I whipped around but I was too late. Something hit me, and hard, in the back of the head. Dots swam in my vision but I couldn't get past it. Through the daze I realized that it was Felix.... shit....
He had me in a head lock, trying to choke me out. That's when I kicked my leg up as far as it would go and cracked his nose into his face. His grip lessened and I shifted my grip so I could catapult over his shoulders.... bad move. I was in the air when Felix punched upward and hit my rib cage.
I went flying straight up into the air.... and lets say I didn't land on my feet. I landed into the river close by. When I hit the water I saw Felix on the edge already, I was screwed. I hit the bottom of the river and sprang up, rocketing out of the river.
I saw the glimmer of the Cullen house on the outside of my blackened vision. Maybe I had a chance after all. I looked at Felix directly in the eyes. I used all my power I had and caused him excruciating pain. He crumbled but the bad thing was I was out of energy. I jumped over the river and kicked him in his shoulder, sending him flying into a tree. I knelt down breathing hard. Why the hell aren't they here yet? I felt something or someone touch my shoulder and automatically swung out but my fist was caught. Carlisle had known it was coming. I was shaking.I slowly felt my ribs, when I touched them pain shot through me. I felt light headed and pain was shooting through my skull. I finally came too and started to look around. Emmet was gone and so was Jasper.
“We should go to them, they can't fight Felix alone.” I murmured, my voice sounded off, like it was just too far away.
“You aren't going to, you are going to stay here so I can look at your ribs and head.” Carlisle looked away, “Alice, Esme, and Rose go and help them if they need it.”
I heard the movement of air and they were gone. Carlisle started looking at my head again, I finally felt my body collapse from the position I was in. I was so tired, so weak. I knew Edward was talking but I couldn't hear him. Carlisle was trying to get my attention but I was going under. I felt it and I knew it. I felt Carlisle pick me up, but when he did he hit my ribs and I screeched in pain. The pain was so complete that even I could barely comprehend it.
That was when I blacked out....

* * *

When I woke up I didn't feel so well, I also felt something on my head. I reached up and felt gauze. I ripped it off, I was not so injured that I needed my head wrapped. Then I felt my ribs, they were wrapped and shattered... still.
I got up and had a wave of nausea hit me. I sat back down. Then I started thinking about what happened and I shot right back up and went downstairs.... and ran into a chained up Felix with Jasper watching him.
“What the hell is going on?” I asked curiously.
“Felix wouldn't talk so I decided to make him,” He spoke slowly. “and if you have a problem with it I would you rather not speak your mind.”
“Oh, I have no problem with it. It's better than him trying to kill me left and right.” I spoke my appreciation.
“And the Vultori will find you, all of you, and kill you.” Felix spoke softly.
I reached over and slapped him so hard than his cheek cracked. “They wont touch them if it's the last thing I do!” I hissed.Jasper spoke up, “You guys wont be able to touch us no matter how hard you try.” I felt the chill from his voice.
Felix just sneered at the comment, “Really? Well, Willow here can't even fight me off.”
I bent over and looked at him straight in the eye, “I will kill you if you keep insulting me.” I spoke so quietly.
“I'd like to see you try.” He spoke just as quietly.
I walked around to the back of him putting my hands on either side of his head. He started to shake. Good, he knew a threat when he sees one. “Do you really want to try me. You know my powers, you've seen my do it to Aro, Jane, and Alec...” He trembled. “Do you really want to die a painful death?”
I hardly noticed that Edward, Carlisle, and Emmet walked in.
I probed into Felix's mind and he screamed, I let go. If he could sweat he would. I walked slowly around to his face and bent back down. I looked him in the eyes. “Do you really want to fight me?”
“You wont kill me, you aren't that mean.” His voice quivered.
“Wanna bet on that?” I whispered. I went behind his head and gripped it on each side. “Do you really want to risk your life on someone who is so, so much stronger than you?”
“You wont.” He started trembling again.
I gripped his head even harder and it started to crack. He jumped a little and started to shift in his seat as the pressure slowly grew. “I'm too lazy to crush your skull.” I slammed into his head and he dropped dead. “He wont even need to be burned but it's probably smart.”

I left the room that was in shocked silence.

Chapter 7

I sat outside on the railing of their porch. Just sitting and looking into the forest that seemed to never end. I let the breeze wash over my face and go through my hair. I stared and dreamed, hoping to figure out how long we have until the Volturi would come. From my calculations, not very long.
I was waiting for my life to change I noticed. Years of living wears even a vampire down. I don't know what I want to change. I though cautiously.
I heard someone quietly walk in, I caught his scent. “I don't know if what I did was wrong but I can't change it. Felix deserved it a thousand times over, he has caused me great pain over the years.” I whispered.
“I completely agree with you Willow, and I have only gotten glimpses of some of the pain he has caused you.” Edward spoke quietly.
The wind blew across the world very lightly. For once in my life time I felt excepted. “He has taking everything and nothing at the same time. He has taken my freedom but you cannot see freedom. I don't know how many times I wish they would catch me so I could be done running...”
“I don't want you to ever think that. We will do everything in our power to keep you safe.” Edward almost sounded disgusted that I would even think that.
I finally turned around and let him see my salty tears falling down my face. “He's killed every one I've ever known Edward. Now that he's dead the Vultori will come after me and my life will be over.” As I was done speaking my stomach growled and I let it. I didn't want to eat. I didn't have the will. My life was over after this month.
“Lets go and hunt. I have an idea that we can use to defeat them, but we have to talk to the wolves after we hunt.”
“Fine.” I slipped off the railing and landed lightly on the ground as Edward fell beside me.
We took off to the woods at an amazing speed and before I knew it we were racing. I pushed harder and beat him. I finally stopped and sniffed the airthere were humans in the area but they didn't pay any interest to me. I tore off south toward the direction of the deer. I stopped right at the edge of the clearing and crouched. I wanted the buck but knew my stomach wasn't going to be able to handle all the blood, so I went for the little doe next to him.
I leaped and landed lightly on its back and bit into it's neck as I pulled it to the ground. It was over in seconds. I was still hungry but I never took more than one. I lifted from my crouch and waited for Edward to be done with the buck.
I felt my irises go lighter and turn back to their vibrant purple that they were.
“Why did you only take one? Your still half starved.” Edward spoke in a hushed tone.
“Because I never take more than I need. It leaves less of a trail and I don't take more than I'm given.” I spoke quietly.
“Well, there's no point in it. You have been found.” A new bell-like voice said.
Me and Edward turned around to only see my worst nightmare come true.

Alec and Jane were here, and they were ready to kill.

Chapter 8

Me and Edward crouched down defensively I subconsciously threw a shield over Edward. I knew that he can't block out Jane or Alec's powers.
“What the hell do you want Jane?” I spoke with a deep growl in my voice.
“Oh, I want to know where our dear friend Felix is and Aro asked me to bring you back. You don't belong with these people. They aren't special like you. You are deadly, and they are not.” Jane spoke.
“We know she is deadly Jane for she killed your precious Felix with her mind. We are staying here by her side, she belongs with us, not you.” Edward spoke with a gleam in his eye.
Piss her off, I have a shield around you. You are safe, she can't touch you. I though to Edward, I looked sideways at him.
I know. We should be fine but we might have to fight. He looked at me.
“Alec you take Edward and I'll take our little friend Willow...” Jane said. In her mind she added; Kill him.
He's going to try and kill you. Be careful, I'll keep the shield on you. I thought.
I lunged at Jane while Edward lunged at Alec. We both collided around the same time, then I was just concentrating on protecting Edward after that, and keeping myself alive. A lot of the fight was kicks being landed that didn't do much damage. Jane got worst of it because she isn't trained for combat situations.
When she landed blow I was trying to concentrating on keeping Edward safe and I went flying through the air and into the river. That's when I leaped up and summoned all of my power toward her.
All of a sudden everything went silence. My eyes turned pitch black as I stood up in the river. A black aura started to swirl around me as I slowly walked up the bank towards her.
“Edward leave please because this will kill you.” I focused my attention back to Jane while Edward fled. “You really shouldn't have done that.”
Alec put himself in front of Jane. I was already completely out of the water by now and dripping wet. The air started to get really cold, and something cold and wet landed on my face. A snowflake... I had no idea that I was the one doing it but I didn't care, I was cold on the inside as well.
They had no idea that they had just made their last mistake by awakening the demon inside me. I lifted my hand toward both of them and let all of my hatred, my fear, my problems at them in a storm of black death. I was the last person they saw. My two biggest enemy’s were no more.

That was when I lost the will to live...

* * *

I was sitting on the ground surrounded by snow, my beautiful back hair was almost completely white when Edward and Jasper found me. I hadn't moved since I killed Alec and Jane. I couldn't believe what I had done.... again. I was lost in this big world. I was in a hole that I dug too deep. Who would ever trust me again. I didn't know. Why does it matter? I have no family, I don't have any friends. The Vultori took that from me.
Jasper sat down next to me, “I know how you feel, how you feel lost in this world. I would feel the same if I were you.”
Edward spoke up a little, “You aren't alone in this world Willow. We are here for you. Just because you are dangerous doesn't mean that you can't have a life.”
They never understand me. “I know that but... I feel lost. Now that Alec, Jane, and Felix aren't coming back the Vultori will hunt me to the end of the earth. I'm thinking about letting them, I'm no good. Maybe they were right from the beginning...” I spoke almost to myself.
“They will hunt you down,” Jasper said, “but we will be here for you. Though right now we need to get you home and cleaned up, and maybe you need to hunt again. Your eyes are black as pitch.”
I looked up at him, “I need to hunt but I don't want to go back there. They will all think I am a monster.”A tear that I couldn't hold back fell down my cheek, but it was black, not clear. I wiped it off before they could see. I looked into the clearing when the snow stopped. I lifted my gaze upward, and the sun started to shine. I faint smile formed on my lips.
“I know what I am and I wont change, but I will destroy the Vultori if it's the last thing I do.” I told myself. I knew just how to do it too.

Let them come to me....

Chapter 9

I decided to go through a walk in the woods. I don't know why but I did. I think I just needed time to myself for once. These last couple days have been intense training in honing the “demon” inside of me.
I have noticed though that every time I do I am half starved and probably need to hunt, but I never do. Just thinking about food made my through burn. I guess I need to hunt. One deer wont hurt anything, well, except for the deer...
I tore off into the wood for the first time since the encounter with Alec and Jane. I didn't go south this time though, I went north.
When I caught the scent of a Bob Cat I really didn't want to hunt it but I was so hungry. I leaped lightly on to the branch above it and it still didn't hear me. Sorry kitty, your days have run out...
I leaped on to the cat and brought it to the ground. It was a lot of blood for me, more than I have had in a while. When I was done though I felt more energized than I have in years. I hated doing that to animals, they never did anything to me. They kept me alive though.
I brushed off my pants and shirt and started walking again. I went south this time. I want to look at the clearing.
A huge gush of wind came barreling though when I heard a scream. My ear automatically tuned into where it come from. I sprinted east at high speed, trying to figure out who did it.
I smelt it before I saw it. I walked into this small clearing not too far from the treaty boarder.
A young girl was lying in her own pool of blood. Some kind of animal had sliced her through open for all to see. Attached to he bag lying next to her was a note written on old parchment.

Dear young Willow,

You are to come to us or we will kill all the Cullens know. If you do comply then we will spare them and the wolves.
Please take this into consideration, you have three weeks.

Your Dear Friend,

Aro

They know how to push the right buttons. I would go and they know it. I would go and see death and welcome it but they would not leave the Cullens or the Pack alone.
So I will go to them and kill them with every one watching. I would commit the biggest crime that a vampire could. I was going to kill the elders.

Then I would welcome death when it came, if it dared to show it's face. I would be death and anyone who got in my way would meet it. I was done running. I am going to stay and fight, and I'm not going to lose.

I will be the last vampire standing...

Chapter 10

I have decided to go to the Vultori and the Cullen’s were not very happy about it. Did I know they were going to kill me? Yes. Am I going to kill them first? Yes. Will I probably die in the process.... probably.
I have a series of plans in case different things happen, and a couple of them are risky. I just don't have any more options, I either die and try to save the Cullen’s or watch them all get slaughtered. Though there is a chance that they might just make me suffer and not let me feed. I'm hoping on that.
Knock, knock. “Who is it? I'm not changing my mind.” I told whoever it was through the door.
“I'm not asking you too...” Edward spoke from the now open doorway. “I was hoping you could spare a minute.”
“Well, I can but not long I have a lot of planning to and I'm not taking a plane there, I'm swimming.” I said with disgust. I hated getting my clothes wet.
“Well, here is a good luck charm. It use to belong to my mother.” Edward walked around me and lifted my hair to put a red ruby heart necklace around my neck.
I lifted my hand to the silk ribbon that held the ruby in place. “Thank you.” In all truth I had no idea what to say.... I felt the first whisper of something I've never felt before. I turned around to face him, “You didn't have to do that you know.”
“Oh, I know. I wanted too.” Edward spoke quietly. “It's to wish you good luck. I hope that they will let you live, and I know that's slim.”
“I have an idea, don't worry. I don't want any of you to worry.” I talked lightly. “I have to start leaving now, it's a long way there.”
We headed toward the front door when I heard a howl from outside. I ran off the porch and into the woods and thought to Edward Thank you for everything, I hope to be back. If not I'm sorry....
I hit the treaty line and met Sam in human form. “I will be leaving now, I hope to live to see the rest of my life, and to save you and the Cullen’s. I'll should be back if my plan goes accordingly.”
“They will kill you-” Sam started to speak but I was already leaving.
“Good bye my friend, keep the peace as a debt to me.” I lunged into the forest and I fell into my imagination. I remembered my past, me meeting the Vultori and how they tried to kill me. How Felix has tried to kill me before I killed him. How Felix and the Vultori have taken all I've ever known from my grasps.
I lifted my hand to the ruby necklace that Edward had given me. I have more to live for now, I can't risk myself like I use too.
I hit the shore line of the ocean, and looked down. Below me was tons of water crashing into the earth like it was nothing. I held my breath and dived head-first into the crashing waves.

And the journey to end my life began.

* * *

I popped my head up above the surface of the water. Peering into the darkness I look for boats, anything that can spot me coming out of the water. All clear. I finally hit the shore and run into the darkness to hide. Thank god that there was a forest near by.
I went into the woods and striped so I could change out of my wet clothes, and so I can be representable to the “Kings”. I dressed in all black so it would be hard to spot me if you were a mere human like most.
Sneaking into the darkened city so the guards would recognize me if I would have to make a dangerous escape. I put down my black hood so I wouldn't look suspicious to ones around me. I walked slowly though the streets and pulled out my phone to call a friend of mine (none of my stuff in my backpack are wet because it's water-proof).
The phone only rang once before it was picked up, “Hello?” A musical voice spoke.
“Hey Edward this is Willow.” I whispered.
“Are you there?” He asked slowly.
“I just got here like not even five minutes ago. I'm not even to their building yet... Edward?” I asked him.
“What?” He spoke almost silent.
“I'm scared, I really don't want to die because I've only just found a place where I belong.” I spoke with tears in my eyes.
He was silent for a moment, “Then come back.”
I heard a sound beside me in the alley and I knew that I couldn't. “I can't, they found me a little too early.” I hung up the phone.
I turned into the alleyway and looked at two clocked figures. They didn't say anything they just turned around. I knew what it meant, I was to come without question.

So I followed them to the place where I knew I would die.

Chapter 11

I was walking through dark tunnels that go underneath the their territory. I was trapped and they knew it, I couldn't escape.
We finally got into an elevator and entered a huge waiting room. From there we walked through gigantic double doors into the room where Aro and his brothers waited.
As I walked into the room it went silent and Aro stood up. I looked up with dignity, I was not a pray that was caught as of yet.
“Welcome Willow, how nice it is to see you again.” Aro spoke cheerfully but I saw the fear in his amber eyes.
“I am not welcomed and you know it. You are a fool to think that you can kill me.” I spoke with a chill in my voice that even seemed to make him shiver.
“You can read me so easy young one. I really do not want to kill you for you are very strong. I want you to join us, you can replace my dear loved ones that you have taken from me.” Aro spoke with a demanding voice.
“You are more a fool to think that I will kill harmless humans and vampire on your whim Aro. I will not join you.” I felt Chelsea try and get into my head but she automatically was knocked out from the force I now had. “I am stronger Aro, I can kill you and all you know so easily.”
He walked over to me, “I am very curious how you did that. May
I look?” He spoke cautiously.
I lifted my hand and let the memories I had flicker through him. The whole time I stared into his eyes, not letting my defensive behavior drop just because he was reading me.
After an eternity he let go. He slowly looked into my eyes and I knew that I wasn't going to die but I was going to be put into an indestructible cage, and he was going to starve me until I would either die or join him.
“Take her to the chamber.” He spoke quietly.
I didn't fight, I let Demitri and his new “buddy” take me away. I was thrown into a cage that I knew I couldn't break.
So I sat there for three weeks without any food. I just sat there and stared at a crack in the wall until it became to boring for me. Every day that passed I felt my eyes change and turn darker from starvation. I would not turn but when Aro comes I will kill him. I will kill him without mercy. They do not know how strong I am when I really want to survive.
Four weeks after my plan was set I heard the door down the hall open. When Aro showed I knew what he saw. A vampire that is as pale as a cloud, has sunken cheeks, pale lips, and eyes as dark as hell itself.
“You don't looks so well Willow.” I didn't speak, I only glared at him. “You know we have tried to feed you, but you wont eat anything we bring you.” I still glared. He turned to talk to the guards with him. “I'm going in.” A guard started to speak but he continued, “she can't hurt me, she is too weak.”
He had no idea what he was getting into. He knelt down to my level and spoke again. “You will die soon if you do not eat my darling.”
I stared again.
“Please eat.” A guard walked in with a unconscious girl in his arms and laid her next to me. “Do it.”He told me.
I bent down but he's such a fool, I snapped up and pinned him into a wall nearby. His guard all but flew in but were killed by the strength of my power instantly. “As I said before, you are a fool Aro.” I snapped at him when he tried to move. He was truly scared.
I lightly pulled my nail across his neck and watched his blood run down his neck. When that happened he flung me across the room into a wall. We circled each other at a very slow speed. I still glared and when I reached the door I flew out of it and locked him in. “You are such a fool.” He looked into the dark hell of my eyes and he saw no more.

* * *

I walked through their building killing any and all of his people that I saw. I stopped counting after the tenth. When I saw the double doors I was where I wanted to be.
I flew open the double doors and walked into a very scared Caius and Marcus. I have never seen the two of them standing so close.
Marcus spoke first, “Where is Aro?”
“I dealt with him and all that were in my way,” I spoke with a deep chill in my voice. “and your in my way.” I gave them my deadly grin and they were beat, they just didn't know it yet...
Caius spoke with a trembling voice, “Who have you killed?”
“Hmm, I know Chelsea is dead, along with Demitri. I lost track after that. Though I am about to add two more to my list...” I looked at them and slowly started walking toward them. “You will die with mercy because you didn't agree with Aro, you didn't want to fight me. You wanted me to live in peace.”
“Then don't kill us. We'll leave you alone-” Marcus started to say.
I slammed them both into the wall. “You have an issue though, I don't like you or what you do.” I was about to kill them when someone walked into the room.
“Don't Willow. Don't lose yourself to them, they aren't worth it.”Edward walked into the room. “Don't kill them, we still need some control over the vampire population.”
I looked at them both, trying to decide if I should kill them or not.
“Willow, drop him please..” I didn't even notice that Alice was here. She saw me doing this, it would end bad.
I did the hardest thing I've ever done. I let my enemy go. I looked around a noticed how horrible I am and I ran, I ran as far as I could, as fast as I could. I didn't belong in this world. I ran into the forest and turned into a wolf. I ran until I was so weak that I could not hold myself up any longer. I fell to the ground while running, ruining my pretty fur.
I laid there until I heard a noise, and even then I did not get up. I wanted to die, I would not hunt. When the sound got closer I lifted my head up and turned into a vampire again. I laid back down and closed my eyes. I did not care, I just didn't want someone to find an over grown wolf laying down like it was dead.
“Willow.” An Angel-like voice spoke. I did not answer. I was in my own world, and I didn't want to leave it. “Willow, please answer me.” I still didn't answer. I felt him shift away. “Carlisle, I don't know what to do. She wont answer me at all, and she looks like a sack of bones.”
Carlisle bent next to me and opened my eye lids and flashed a light in my eyes. That got me up.
“Damn it!” I sat up and glared at him, my eyes black as pitch and my eyes red from lack of food and sleep.
“It was the only way to get you up, and you need to hunt really bad.” Carlisle said. He took my arm and pricked it to see if I still had blood flow, I had one but barely. “What happened in there?”
I laid back down. “I really don't want to talk about it. I just want to sit and rest, I'm very tired.”
They started to talk around and about me but I didn't care, I was falling asleep. I felt my body start to go limp and I didn't care, I was out of energy. I was so out of it when Carlisle picked me up and was running, hopefully to an airport because I'm not swimming this time. I felt when Carlisle traded spots with Edward when they moved me into a car.

I don't remember past that until we were at the airport.

Chapter 12

When I woke up I was feeling worse than sick, I couldn't move my body it was so weak. I looked to side and saw Jasper sitting close by. I tried to speak but my throught was as dry as sand in a desert. I was in so much pain.
Jasper looked at my struggle, “You shouldn't talk, your too weak to have the struggle right now.” He paused for a moment to think, “How long has it been since you have hunted?”
I cleared my throught as much as I can but it still came out hoarse. “A little over two months, you couldn't believe how much pain I'm in.” That was the last of my energy, I was tapped out.
“We need to get you out and hunting as soon as possible.” Jasper spoke in a whisper.
“I don't have any more energy,” my voice sounded slurred and distant. “I'm just so tired.”
“Hold on, I'll be right back.” Jasper sprinted out of the room at blinding speed. When he got back Carlisle was with him.
“Child, how are you feeling? Jasper says you are really weak and can barley move.” He looked at me with great concern.
“I don't know, I'm dizzy and it hurts a lot to move around.” My voice sounded weak and it slurred even worse this time. In truth I felt much worse than what I was telling them. If I could puke I would.
Carlisle turned to Jasper, “We need to get food into her.... What if I get some from the hospital?
“It's human blood.. Do you think that's good for her right now?” Jasper was cautious, He has dealt with vampires before.
I was starting to swim in and out, their voices were sounding farther away by the second.
“I think that it's the only thing that could save her now. I'll be back, I'm gonna get some out of the hospital.” With that Carlisle swept out of the room and was on his way.
I was so tired but I couldn't sleep. I slowly shifted so I could try to sit on the edge of the bed. I sat up and quickly knew that wasn't the right move. I leaned down so my head went between my knees so I could try and get my breath back again. I lifted my head and tried to get my surroundings, I've never been in this part of the Cullen house before.
Some one stood on the door henge. “Why are you always pushing yourself? You could have died back there and I underestimated you. When your weak you can kill if you want to.” Alice's small bell-like voice stated. “You scared Edward you know. We were all worried about how you would come out of it. I've never seen one of our kind starved to that point.”
“I was waiting for Aro to come into the room. It took longer than I though and by the time he did I was beyond pissed and I'm pretty sure he knew it.” My voice was raspy but it was coming back. “Tell Carlisle to not get me any blood, I'll do it myself.” I slowly got to my feet making sure that I wouldn't fall on my face. I started walking out of the room and down the stairs when Alice stopped me and just stared.
I knew what she saw for I was in a tank top and shorts. I was beyond starved. I had no meat on myself, I was all bones and skin. My eyes were normally bright with though and purple, but were now dead and black. My eyes hollow with deep bruises underneath.
“You will never know what pain I went through Alice, and I hope you never do.” I spoke quietly while I looked into her eyes. I turned away and headed downstairs and when outside. I felt the fresh air and just breathed, I couldn't believe how much I missed it. The freedom and independence that I no longer had.
My stomach growled. “I know, lets go and eat.” I sprinted out and into the woods praying that there would be prey near by. I ran miles into the territory and with nothing to satisfy my hunger. I sat down with a huff onto a rock.
“REALLY?! REALLY?!” Then I stopped yelling, I felt stupid to talk to air. Today just wasn't my day, and I had a feeling that it was just going to get worse.
I heard a rustle and was relived when it was only Jacob. “Well, it's Willow right? I heard you were in Italy.” Jacob was getting to something, I could smell it.
“Yes, I was Jacob. Now I know you want to say some thing so just get it off your chest,” I wasn't in the mood for it, I was starving. “and make it quick cause if you haven't opened you blind eyes I am half starved and if I don't get anything in my system within two hours I will most likely never get up on my own again.”
“Okay and -. Oh my god you do look bad. I never actually look at you guys. Well me and the pack want to know what went on there and if we are going to still be looking for a fight.” He sounded nervous.
“Jacob sit.” Surprisingly he obeyed me. “When I was in Italy I went to the Volturi and lets just say that they shouldn't be bothering you because the really don't have a guard right now.” I spoke fast and got up to walk away.
“Um.. Wait a moment! What the hell do you mean they don't have a guard?” He grabbed my shoulder and nocked me to the ground on accident.
“Shit!” I screeched when I hit the ground. “Dammit Jacob! I can't get up.” I held out my hand so he could grab it.”
“I'm sorry Willow. I should have been careful.” He took a deep breath. “I'll go and catch some food for you and then we talk.” He sprinted off into the woods.
I sat there and decided to wait. Why waste my energy? Jacob wants to get me food. So I laid down in the dirt and closed my eyes and drifted. I started dreaming (some thing that I can't do all that often). I dreamed of my life before I was a high breed. Of how I was known in my time for my innocence and peace of mind.
Since the change I have become ruthless, and dark in the heart. I don't flinch at the sight of death that I cause like I use too. I have accepted who I am and who I will never be again. When I was sorta human (because I was still a shape shifter at the time) I was known for my wisdom before my age. I was known for my beauty and my control. The exact opposite of what I am today.
I dreamed of my last day in my peaceful life. How I was scared because someone had found out about me and my family. I walked on the land that was near my home, just walking. I saw it after a couple minutes of walking, my home being burned into ash.
I ran as far away as I could and I was still too slow. I didn't want to change because it would only confirm their fears. I ran and ran but who ever or what ever it was caught me and I don't remember past then until I had came into my “new” life.
I sat up and I could swear my body creaked. I was about to get up and hunt with myself when Jacob came outta the trees in wolf form and with a dear in his mouth.
“You really didn't have to hunt for me. I am capable of it myself.” I told him but the weakness in my voice gave me away.
I heard his mind Yeah, sure you could. Your so weak right now that if I attacked you, you would be dead. He gave me a stupid grin and I knew that we were okay.
“Yeah I know, and I hope that I didn't make the situation worse fro you guys and if it comes down to it I'll fight with you until my last breath. That I can promise you.” I felt him wanting to faze. “Now unless you want yourself bitten you either stay in wolf form or run away. I do not want to try my control at the moment.”
He thought for a moment. I'll stay I've never seen this before. I could feel his curiosity from here.
“Fine, but if you get attacked fro getting to close your just gonna be screwed.” I was joking but he took me seriously and took a couple steps back.
I just shrugged. I looked at the dear that he brought me and felt bad for it, I hated killing or even intending to kill something. I stepped onto the poor things neck to put it out of its misery. I knelt down to its neck and stopped. “I think you should go Jacob. I really don't want to be the cause of your death.” I looked up and saw a sadness that I didn't expect. Why would someone as nice as Jacob look at a monster like me and feel sad? “Go Jacob, please.”
Without a thought about if he left or not I bit into the creatures neck and drank deep. I felt the blood explode into my mouth and felt it hit my system. I lifted up from the spasm of pain that went through me. I looked up to see if Jacob was there still, he was.
He titlted his head. Why did you stop?
“My system isn't use to it Jacob. Its been over two months since I last ate. The Volturi are ruthless and evil creatures that will stop at nothing to get something done.” I sat back and let the little blood I had settle in my stomach. “I went to the Vultori to confront them and I knew that they would either kill me or keep me hostage in hope that I would give some secret up. When I didn't break they decided to starve me and every day left a dead human in my cell. I didn't break, but it was so HARD! So I stayed with my plan and waited for Aro to come out. When he came out over two months later I killed him and most of his guard. I only left Marcus and Ciaus alive and one or two of their slaves.” I realized I had let more slip than I normally do.
I bent back down to feed once more, I didn't stop until I had the whole creature drained. I felt almost unbearably alert now, I felt strength seep into my arms and legs, felt my eyes switch to a deep purple, and I felt most of my skeleton fall back into place, once again covered with muscles.
Jacob went back into the forest and I heard him faze. He came out and walked up to me and crouched down. He looked me dead in the eye and said, “Why did you take that risk? We could have fought them off, we are strong. You shouldn't have suffered for our well being.”
I looked at him. “I did and now I really have to go.” I stood as he did. “If I wouldn't have done that it wouldn't have only been you and your pack in danger. Remember that.” With that I spun around and took off into the woods that lead to the Cullen house.
I was running when I smelt and familiar scent. I lifted my nose up into the air like a dog and inhaled deeply. I closed my eyes and turned around and when I opened my eyes I saw Edward not three feet from me.
He looked at me, a quick survey. “You look much better. With a couple more meals you'll be good as new.” He walked up to me and put my face between his hands. “You scared the living shit out of me. If you ever risk your life again I will stop you.” He looked down and back up with a question in his eyes. “You still wear it?”
With that I laughed, a deep, full laugh that I haven't done in a long time. I looked up into his eyes and touched his temples. Of course I did you goof. It kept me sane. I jumped and kissed him lightly on his cheek. “Lets go back to your home.” I reached my hand out to him and he took it.

The danger was only beginning...

Chapter 13

It has been a couple weeks since the incident with the Volturi and I have my strength back. I am stronger than I was but now I have more issues to deal with. It seems that Aro is still alive. I thought back to that day. There are only two conclusions that I have come to.

One: I used a stun stare, not my death stare.
Two: Another vampire has the antidote to my powers (Elexus).

I have no idea which one is right but I have a feeling that it's the first one. I haven't used that power in a long time and I'm the only one that I know that has the antidote to my own power. I have a feeling that some of his guard is still alive too.
“I think it's from my lack of food, I think that my body didn't have enough strength to do it.” I was trying to figure this out. Jasper, Edward, Carlisle and I were all sitting in the living room trying to come to a conclusion. “I know I killed Alec and Jane but that leaves the rest of his guard injured but still alive.”
We all sat there, thinking. If this was true then I will be in more trouble than I was before. Aro won't catch me this time, he will just kill me.
“I think that is the most logical solution, but know we are in more danger.” Jasper said as he sat there and I knew he was trying to find a strategy that will solve all solutions. He was coming up blank.
“I think that we can beat them if we fight, but you will have to teach us and get the Pack on our side.” Carlisle murmered. “You were working with them before, and they aren't stupid.”
“I wont be able to do it all alone though. I think I will have to bring in some of my friends.” I didn't want to but they would like a challenge and some of them are better fighters than I am.
“Will they be okay with the wolves?” Edward finally said.
“Yes, they are very coopritive and probably haven't had any excitement to speak of in a long time. I'll get a list going and next to the names I'll have the region and description. Be aware that they can be very savage. If you mention my name then they will come out of curiosity.” I had already grabbed a piece of paper and was writing the names down.
Jasper started to help me. “Alice and I will go, Carlisle and Esma will go, then you and Edward. Alice and I will take the south-”
“No, Edward and I will, Most of them are that way and I have a general idea where each are. You and Alice will take Africa and Australia, then Carlisle and Esme will take Europe. I don't mean to be rude but the ones in the South are very.... different. It will take more than just some persuasion to them on our side.” I looked at all of them, and I saw only trust but in Jasper I saw some agitation.
Jasper held it back though, “All right, but we better start getting ready. You and Edward are going to have to stop by the Pack's territory and tell them what's going on.” With that he got up and started to find Alice, Carlisle went to explain to Esme, Rose, and Emmett what was going on, and me and Edward just looked at eachother.
I thought about what I was going to say next and I knew that he would object to it right away but it was worth a shot. “I'm sorry about what I'm getting your family into, and you don't have to come-”
“Don't even start with that.” He pulled me into his lap and spoke quietly into my ear. “I will protect my family and I will not let someone I just found run away from me so fast.”
We sat there for only a moment but it would be a moment that I would cherish for the rest of my life. We had to get things together and ready to leave.
“Can you get stuff together for the both of us while I get the instructions ready please?” I said as we got up.
“No problem as long as you don't leave.” He said with slight grin.
I just just chuckled and went to get some more paper and a crap ton of pencils. After about an hour I had it all set up, so I called everyone into the living room once again.
“Alice and Jasper you will get: Allie, Jessica, Riley, and Feonia. Carlisle and Esma you will get: Johanna, Gemula, and Reshee. Edward and I will get: Elexus, Herrera, Silvia, Castrio, and Rojas. Emmett and Rose, you will make sure they are at home and that they don't hunt within this state. Everyone got it?” I looked around to find any problems and found none. “Okay, with that we must go, we still have to go to the Pack and tell them that we are going to have some visitors coming our way. Good luck, you will need it.”
We left the house and headed to the Pack's territory, we had no idea how the Pack was going to react but we had to take this chance. When we crossed the border I think that the Pack sensed us because we were surrounded fairly quickly.
I read Sam's mind, What do you want? He sounded annoyed.
“We have visitors coming, vampires that I have known through out my time. They are here to help and some will be helping me train your pack. We wanted to warn you before we leave.” I did not mention that I may not be coming back but of course no one knew that.
Where are you going and what kind of hunters are your friends? Sam was cautious.
“They hunt humans but they will not be hunting within the state. We do not want any attention coming to this state.” I hoped that they wouldn't put up and fight a I knew that Sam wanted to but he also wanted to keep his pack alive at the same time.
Very well then, they can come but they cannot hunt anywhere near us. If they do we will deal with them ourselves. He sounded a little worried about that, he knew who was messing with.
“Fine. Now we really have to get going. We have a lot of land to travel.” I bowed my head and left with Edward at my side.

The time of the danger within me was coming...

Chapter 14

We didn't use a car, we didn't have the time right now to do it. It didn't bother me that we were going on foot, I've lived in the wild with no more than a pair of shorts and a tank top to keep me warm (even thought temperatures really didn't bother me or anyone of our kind).
Me and Edward talked little about what we were doing and when we did we just communicated through our minds. Two question kept coming up between the both of us, will we live and will they trusts us or me? I didn't know the answer, I haven't seen these friends in a very long time.
The first one we will go to is one of the few I ever got close to, Elexus. Without her I would not be where I am today. I would not be a vegetarian, I would not be as strong or as fast as I am now. I would have been slaughtered when I went to the Volturi and I would have died when I confronted the Pack. I would not be alive.
“So tell me a little about Elexus.” Edward asked. “Please?” He added quietly when I did not answer.
“She is someone I will never forget, she made me what I am. She didn't change me physically but she changed me mentally. She is like me, she hunts only animals, not humans. I just hope that she is still alive, the Volturi weren't a big fan of her either.” I missed her and thinking that she isn't alive breaks my heart. If I wasn't so scared I would have cried.
Edward looked at me and knew I no longer wanted to talk about it, I was worried sick that she could be dead, or worse.
In truth I can almost guarantee that Elexus is still alive, she had powers never seen before, just like me. The part that I worry about is that they are going to use her. If they do then the guard would be back and so would Aro and everything that I have tried would have gone down in shame and I would die.

We finally ended up on the cost of Florida and I knew we wouldn't be ale to talk a lot from here on out. The plan was to go to Puerto Rico (where Elxus lived) and try and find her. If She's gone then we have little chance. Me and Edward looked at each other and knew what we were about to face. I looked out into the dark ocean and closed my eyes and just took a well needed breath.
When I opened them back up Edward was standing less than a foot in front of me, I almost gasped. He reached up and fingered the necklace that he gave me, what seemed like an eternity ago. He looked back at me with almost a sad expression.
I lifted my head to him, “Let's go. We don't have any time to waste.” I look his hand and I jumped into the water.
We swam for what seemed like almost an hour before we were already within “hearing” distance of Puerto Rico. Me and Edward were looking out into lively city and were praying to whatever god to listen.
We swam into and under the docks, not to be even seen. We were dripping wet and I knew we had to change. “Head over into the trees to change, and try not to be spotted please.” I looked at him with a gaze that told him I wasn't in the mood.
When he came back I went and then we headed into the town. I walked though streets that I have long tried to forget. I headed down the familiar path of a eccentric garden that surrounded Elexus's home and knew that something was off.
I signaled Edward to stop, and I sat still as stone and just listened. My worst nightmare had came true.

Elexus's was gone, and a note by the window confirmed that she was with the Vultori.

Chapter 15

Three weeks had past since our trip to recruit, it seemed like the Vultori had done their job well, most of my friends were dead and/or kidnapped by the Vultori.
We had less than a day before they would come and I had given up, their was no possible way to win. I secretly told the wolves not to interfere, the Vultori would not harm them if they would not fight. Surprisingly Sam agreed.
Our whole family was walking to the soon-to-be-fight-sight, I was still hoping that they would leave them be but I knew that, that was very slim.
All of a sudden my vision went dark and I knew I had fallen into a vision. I was movement and the Vultori already there, waiting. They had came early.
I sharp slap slammed me out of the vision before I could tell when.
“Are you okay?” Carlisle was standing over me.
“I'm fine but we have something else to deal with. The Vultori are waiting already. They cam early.” I looked at them and I had a feeling that this would be one of the last times I would see them. I hopped back up to my feet, “Lets go.”
We arrived and the whole guard was there, Elexus had been forced to bring them back, she was the only antidote to my poison.
Aro didn't bother with a greeting, “Kill em'.”
We all fought till the very end but one-by-one each fell till I was alone. I would not give, I will stand and fall with my loved ones, the ones who had taken me under their wing, the ones who gaev me hope.
Me life would mean something.
The ground shook and I was getting hit but Aro. He was killing me, and I didn't even try to stop him.
I fell but then I realized that the Cullens were back, but I was going to die regardless. I sent a message to Elexus, Thank you, I will never forget you.
She smiled grimly, I will always cherish you and your memories. I will protect them but I cannot save you, we are too different.
I sent a message to the Cullens who were now standing over me. Thank you guys for showing me family again. I will always love you. I shifted my thoughts with the last of my will to Edward. I love you even though we don't know each other a whole lot, You were there for me when no one else was. Live one for me, don't forget what I have taught you. I stared to gasp for the air that was leaving me. Just live.... for me.... please...
He gave a slight nod and kissed me.
The end was coming, my life was gone, Willow Kucriarro would be a lost person in time.
With my last breath I looked into the dying sun, maybe my next life would be better.
My body went limp and I saw no more....
