Ch 10: Pain

The effect of Jane’s gift was instantaneous. The pain was bewildering.
I wanted so hard to fight back but knew it was no good.
When the effect of her gift hit me, I screamed. I fell to my knees in
pure agony. It was like being set on fire. Like your whole body being
dipped in acid. Like being stabbed with a knife repeatedly. It was hard
to tell what was going on. One minute I was in the Volturi temple
being watched. And then the next, I was in my own personal hell. I
couldn’t think straight. I didn’t know what time it was. I didn’t know
the names of those watching me. I just knew the pain. I wanted it to
stop. I wanted to be with my family and friends. I wanted to tell
Edward that I love him. I wasn’t sure if this was my path to death or
to reality.
Was it ever going to stop? Would I ever see Edward again? Would I
see Lissa again? What about Alice? Rosalie? Esme? Emmett? Jasper?
Carlisle?
Then the pain stopped.
I could see again. I could see Alice sobbing dry sobs. I could see
Lissa crying. And I could see Edward with pain in his eyes. I saw
Aro, Marcus and Caius laughing. Jane looked like she was about to
collapse. Alec looked like he had been torched. He was standing next
to Jane in a protective stance hissing at anyone who came close. I
could see Aro’s guard standing there not quite sure what to do.
I tried to stand and thought I was successful until I saw the ground
getting closer to my face. I landed on the ground with a loud thud.
Then I felt pain in my arm. I just prayed to god it won’t be as bad as
last time. It wasn’t. I lay there on the ground. I could still see, so, it
wasn’t Jane’s fault. I was trying to get up but before I could, I smelt
it. It was blood. Blood was coming out of the cut in my arm. As
quickly as I could I jumped onto my feet just in time for someone to
lunge at me. Before they could get to me Edward blocked their path. I
hurried over into the corner trying to stop the bleeding. Lissa followed
me at her vampiric pace. She reached her hand out to touch my cut.
Through her emotions I could feel power pulsing through her veins.
She had healed me. I watch as the cut closed itself and then
completely disappear. I murmured thanks to her before going over to
see what was happening.
Edward and Alice were fighting the Volturi guard. With the blink of
an eye a shield formed around Alice, Edward, Lissa and me. The
Volturi were sent flying backwards. In their minds they protested
angrily. Aro waved them down as they started to fight again.
I tuned in; to the one persons thoughts I really wanted to hear. Aro’s.
Hmm.......Now what to do with them. Kill them so no
one ever knows my secret? Or let them live and pray
that they won’t ever expose my secret? Maybe I should
confide in my brothers. They will know what to do.
Aro raised his hands and the room fell silent. “I wish to talk to my
brothers. Then we will decide your fate.” He added darkly.
