READ THIS. IMPORTANT INFO.

Hi guys.

Ya, I know. The people actually reading this story are proably POed at me right now.

But don't blame me!!!

I've been waiting and waiting and waiting (very patiently, might I add) for you readers (however few in numbers you may be) to review to my wanted amount.

As of right now, I have 7 reviews. I wanted at least 10.

So... I'm solving this problem I'm having with getting no reviews by putting this chapter up, but before you get the next one, I want to be at atleast 15 reviews, but preferably 20.

Oh, and my poll.

I'm putting up a new one, because I want it new and clean.

I'm going to put up the first chapter of everyone of the ideas I have, and if you want to, read through them and pick which one you want me to write after All's Fair In Love And War is finished. If you want to (becsue you don't feel like reading ALL the first chapters) you can just vote for which idea you like best, based on the summary.

Another note: The explosions and the whole vampire transformations things all happened in 1918, and it will now take place in 2009.

So, now that my long author's note is finished...

On with the story.

P.S. I don't own Twilight, and I never will. I only own the plot, and a couple of my own characters. Plus, if I owned Twilight, do you think I'd really be sitting here, writing FanFiction, instead of publishing this gold? (LOL, JK)

Chapter 3: Rings

~*91 Years Later~

"Isabella, love!" Aro called.

I growled silently.

I was getting sick of his constant demands, stupid nicknames, and all his so called "subjects".

And I also hated being called "Isabella".

"Yes?" I snarled.

"There's a new vampire wondering through the forest 20 miles north of here!" He called in a sing-song voice.

"Be back soon," I mumbled.

"Oh, and do some hunting; your eyes are getting redder!"

I flinched at his words.

Not only did he force me to run his errands, take his bull, and do that with a straight, sweet face, but of course, he just HAD to force me to feed off humans.

I hated it, because it was inhumane and monstrous. It made my stomach lurch everytime I was forced to feed.

I had once asked if I could feed off animals in the forests surrounding Volterra, but Aro gave me a look of disgust and a cruel punishment.

A MONTH of chaperoning the evil twins...

Jane and Alec.

I had to watch as they sent people writhing and shrieking in pain at a glance, and their numerous attempts to penetrate my shield.

You see, that was my power-I can shield mind attacks.

I can't shield myself from physical blows, like when Felix slapped me when I snapped at him.

But I was also the Volturri's strategist.

That's why they kept me here.

Imprisoned.

Ordered around.

Outcasted.

I hated it with a passion.

And I felt sorry for the new vampire Aro had sent me to catch for him.

Either:

A. Aro would see if he had a power, and if it was useful, and what their strnegth's were

or

B. He would put them in the arena, and make us all sit and watch as they tortured the poor creature with a slow, painful death.

WHY did I sign up for this again?

Oh ya, I didn't.

I was, literally, dragged into this.

And to this day, May 30, 2009, exactly 91 years since I became a vampire, I cannot remember a single thing about my past.

Except names that the Volturri members who found me mentioned in the carriage that time, 91 years ago.

Names like Alice, Edward, and Jasper.

People I didn't remember, and I doubt I ever would.

But Aro knew. So did Caius, Marcus, Athendora, Sulpicia, Felix, Demetri, and pretty much every freaking member of the Volturri, except for me, who it was actually about.

Go figure, right?

Well, it didn't matter now- those people have been dead for almost a century, but here I am. The undead.

Once I shook my thoughts away and finally stepped out of Volterra's city borders, I was free to take my hood off, and run at full velocity.

Instead of feeding off a human, I took down a few animals- one animal feeding wouldn't change my red eye color, right?

It didn't take long to find the new vampire, because he was making quite a lot of noise.

"Hello?" I said sweetly.

"What's happening?" A small voice called back.

I stepped in the direction of the voice, and walked into a small clearing.

And that was where I saw a little boy sitting in a small ball on the ground.

I knelt down in front of him, and spoke gently, tried not to frighten him.

"What's your name, sweetie?"

"Dalex."

"How are you doing?" I moved a little closer.

"I don't know...why am I so pale? Why are my eyes...red?" He still was looking down.

"Sweetheart, look up." I replied.

He did as I told him, and was shocked to find me with pale skin and red eyes.

"Are you...like me?" He asked hopefully.

"Yes, dear. Do you want to come with me to my home?" I asked.

"Okay."

I held out my hand, and we walked out of the clearing.

"How did you find me?" He asked, breaking the dull silence.

"I followed your scent." I smiled.

This was going to get interesting.

"Scent?"

"Yes. You see, Dalex, you and I, we're both...vampires."

He gasped.

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"I'm sorry, but it's true."

"I don't believe you."

"There are more of us."

I kept trying to coax him into believing me, so I chose my last resort.

"Dalex, climb onto my back." I sighed, kneeling down.

As he was climbing up, he asked, "Why?"

"I'm going to prove it to you."

Once he was securely on my back, I took off at vampire speed.

"Carlisle. What are we doing here?" I sighed.

"We're going to see Aro. He gets annoyed if I don't visit ever hundred years. Plus, he'll be excited to meet you, Alice, and Jasper." Carlisle responded.

"And plus, maybe you'll find a certain female friend you could get along with." Emmett winked.

"No, of course he couldn't. You know as well as I do that "Bella Swan" is the only one for him," Rosalie sneered.

"Rosalie!" Esme gasped.

"No, it's fine, Esme. I'm used to Miss. Air-Head bugging me about it," I shrugged.

The truth was, I wasn't.

There was always a sharp pang inside whenever Rosalie mentioned Bella.

I still keep my engagement ring in my pocket.

"Any new additions?" Jasper asked quietly.

"Yes. Three. Two parents, and their daughter, actually. The daughter is about eighteen." Carlisle answered.

I was suprised that Alice had not said a single word for the past five minutes.

"Setting a new record?" I smirked.

"Shut up, Edward. I know what I want for my birthday! I want a Porsche Turbo, in yellow. I just saw one pass by. By the way, Rosalie, we just HAVE to get some Italian clothes. Edward, Emmett, Jasper- I'm getting you three new clothes, pronto. You three are in dire need. I can't believe you three- you haven't been shopping with me in 2 WEEKS! Edward. you know I told you not to waer that shirt! Oh my gosh, that's the second time you've worn it, isn't it? No no no, that will not do. Absolutely not. You know we only wear something once; then it goes to charity! Carlisle, how long will this vist take? Will it be a pop in? Or a stay in?" Alice chattered.

"How can you say so much in one breath?" I asked.

"Shut up." Alice directed her attention back to Carlisle.

"Well, we're going to stay for a couple of hours. Get the grand tour for you three. Maybe meet the new members of the Volturri, if they're there." He responded.

"Oh, and Alice, Jasper, Edward- stay away from Alec and Jane. Do not make them mad, do not even speak to them. Don't even look at them," Emmett ordered.

"Why?" Jasper asked.

"Because they have some...strange powers," Rosalie added.

"And...we're here." Esme whispered.

BPOV

"Aro! I'm back!" I yelled.

"Did you bring him?" He whispered.

"Bring who?" Dalex asked.

"Oh, hello, son," Aro smiled sweetly.

But anyone who knew the old bag of bones KNEW that it was a mischievious, evil, cunning smile.

He was up to something.

And then it hit me...literally.

Jane. Alec.

Walking through the entrance, not paying attention, and walking straight into me.

But me, being as solid and unmovable as a rock, reflected the hit.

I didn't even flinch, whereas the two fell backwards.

I couldn't resist laughing.

"Shut up!" Jane hissed.

"Or what? Your powers don't affect me, remember?" I smiled sweetly.

"We'll find a way," Alec smiled menacingly.

I looked down at my hands, and noticed the old ring still on my finger.

The only thing left of my old life- a ring, given to me by who knows who.

"Aro, I'm going to go see my parents," I mumbled.

As I was stepping through the large, ancient wooden doors, seven vampires walked in.

A blonde man who looked Italian himself, with a wise aura surrounding him; a beautiful woman with caramel brown hair; ablonde who would make the most beautiful woman's self-esteem plummet; a tall man with a buzz cut and who looked like a body builder; and three familiar looking people: a small pixie-like girl with a pixie haircut; a dirty blonde who was lanky but muscular; and the most familiar, a tall, thin one with untamable bronze hair and a boyish look.

I couldn't place my finger on it, but these people were so familiar, and yet I had never met them in my life.

There was also another thing...their eyes weren't red, but golden.

"Come back here in an hour, Isabella, I have another assignment for you," Aro called.

He must do that just to annoy me.

"Hello, Carlisle Cullen and family!" Aro exclaimed as I walked out the door.

EPOV

As we waled through the path up to the Volturi's castle, I saw tons of humans.

The smell was overwhelming; but I just thought of Bella.

Her beautiful heart-shaped face, chocolate brown eyes, brown, curly hair, wonderful smile, her clumsiness.

Before I knew it, we were going through big, wooden double doors.

And that's when I caught a glimpse of the beautiful creature.

Red eyes, with a sad glint, and a scowl.

"Come back in an hour, Isabella, I have another assignment for you!" The man that I guessed was Aro called.

"Hello, Carlisle and family!" Aro yelled excitedly, as the beautiful woman walked out the door.

But one thing caught my eye.

A familiar looking engagement ring on her right hand.

DUN DUN DUN!!!

Cliffy, sort of.

Anyway, I want to reach 15 reviews until your next chapter.

Thanks.
