Hello. This idea came to me after reading a fic about Emmett adopting a puppy named Tuffy. But I made it about the Volturi, cos I'm one of those wierdos who'd pick the Volturi over the cullens any day. I'm so Team Witch Twins.
Don't own Twilight, but the cat in this fic looks just like my cat, Aslan!

Jane POV
Sigh. Life in Volterra bores me. I was mooching around the castle, looking for someone to talk to/prank/torture. Heidi was out, gathering food, I hoped. Chelsea, Reneta and Corin were on their yearly trip to Tokyo, due back in a few hours (A.N. I don't know if Corin is male or female,but I made her a girl). I would go talk to (pester) Gianna, but she was on an extended vacation after the whole 'chained up in the dungeon' prank.
I decided to go find Alec. He normally had some okay ideas for fun, but I hadn't seen him since breakfast.
"Alec?" I shoved his bedroom door open without knocking. Nope. Not in here. I slammed the door shut again in frustration, and the hinges snapped like twigs. The door - and some of the wall - went soaring across Alec's bedroom and through his closed window. Oops. My bad. Luckily for me, Alec's window faced the gardens and not the street. I wouldn't know how to explain a flying door to the humans. Or to Aro.
I edged away from Alec's room, listening for anyone who might discover my little accident. I heard distant footsteps coming my way and took off, running like hell down the hall. It wouldn't help if they discovered it was me. Caius kept records of everyone in the guard. (Get a frigging life Caius!) Bad records. Everyone else's was minuscule compared to mine. It was almost as thick as Felix.
Speaking of that big lout, maybe he would know where my brother was. I would always be able to find Felix, because he spent every second of his existence on the new wii. ( Santiago had seen it in a magazine, showed it to all the other males in the guard. They had pooled their money and bought one, as well as about fifty games.) Felix was in love with the thing. I didn't get what the big deal was. It was just a box. But Felix looked on it like it was God.
As I made my way towards the game-room, I could hear cheering and yelling as well as frequent cussing.
ALL the guys were in there with their noses pressed against the screen - well, almost - Felix (big shock there), Demetri, Santiago, Afton...and Alec. Afton and Demetri were duelling virtually, and everyone else was passing around money. Betting, I guessed.
"Hey Alec!" I bounced over to my twin.
"Mmm," he mumbled, his eyes glued to the screen.
"Do you want to do something?"
"Mmm."
"Whattya wanna do?"
"Mmm."
"Do you want to prank call someone?"
"Mmm."
"Do you want to play dares?"
"Mmm."
"Do pink elephants fly?"
"Mmm."
"Argh!" I stormed away and left my brother to his retarded game. Idiot. All men are imbeciles! I'm glad I broke his door! (and his window...and most of his wall)
I flung myself down on my bed and buried my face in my pillow. Now if I could just stay like this until Heidi came home with food...aw who was I kidding? The pillow would never last that long.
"Meow."
My head flew up in surprise. There was a small cat sitting on my windowsill. It was white all over, but with an orange tail and two orange ears. It's eyes were amber and beseeching.
"Aaaw!" I cooed. I sprang from my bed to the windowsill, locking my hands around the cat so it couldn't escape. I carried it back to the bed and dropped it - wait...her - gently onto my blankets. She didn't run like I thought she would. She purred as I stroked her, laying her head in my lap. She was adorable!
I stroked her sleek fur for a long time before a thought flashed up in my mind: She needed a name. I looked at her bright, round eyes before deciding.
"Amber," I beamed. She gave a soft meow in response. Her purrs grew louder. Then I heard my brother's voice calling me.
"Jane!" He bounded through my bedroom door. "Foo-" He cut off mid-word as he stared at Amber. His eyes grew wide and his skin looked even paler, if that's even possible. Amber hissed.
Alec scurried back against my wall as I walked forward with my new pet in my arms. He pointed one shaking finger at her.
"What," he choked. "Is that!"
