《The Banshee (Jasper Hale x OC)》Chapter 23
Advertisement
We had to follow Jane, the woman who brought my father to his knees before the other vampires from the Volturi killed him...
"Just do as she says" whispered Alice.
We walked down the stairs, before arriving to the elevator.
In the elevator there was opera music playing.
I stood close to Jasper, and I noticed how less cold he felt to me.
His hand was on my back and he made sure that I wasn't scared.
We passed a desk where a human was working. She said something in Italian.
"Does she know?" I asked.
"Yes" said Jasper.
"Then why would... oh, she wants to be" I said.
"And so she will be" said a vampire behind me.
"For desert" said Jane.
She opened the door and we came into a huge room. Where 3 old vampires were waiting for us.
"Sister. Send you out to get one and you bring back 3 and a half. And a Banshee" said a vampire.
"What a happy surprise!" said one of the old vampires, Aro.
'I remember them too... they were all there...'
"Bella is alive after all" said Aro and walked closer to Bella and Edward. "Isn't that wonderful. I love a happy ending. They are so rare" he looked at me and smiled. "Miss Marshall, how lovely to see you all grown up! I can hardly hear your heart beating anymore"
He stepped closer to me and held out his hand.
"May I read your thoughts? Just like Mr. Hale I have a gift, I can read all of your thoughts through one touch. So, may I?" he asked and I looked into his red eyes before giving him my hand. "Oh, the pain you've gone through. The loss, the constant death you feel. Losing the one you love most of all. But I see he's returned back to you"
Jasper let his hand rest upon my waist, looking at Aro.
"I see you finally became a real Banshee. How lovely, there's finally peace in your mind, after all these years... I do apologize for killing your father in front of your eyes" he said and I just kept looking at him while he kept reading my thoughts. "She does love you very much, Mr. Hale"

"And I love her" said Jasper and Aro smiled before going to Edward.
Jasper kissed my hair and I let my face fall into his chest, before looking back at Edward and Bella.
Aro grabbed Edward's hand. "Her blood appeals to you so much. It makes me thirsty. How can you stand to be so close to her?" he asked.
"It's not without difficulty" said Edward.
"Yes, I can see that" said Aro.
"Now you know everything. Get on with it" said Edward.
"You are quite a soul reader yourself, Edward" said Aro. "Though, you can't read Bella's thoughts... fascinating"
He let go of Edward's hand and he took a step back.
"I would love to see if... you are an exception to my gifts as well" he said and held out his hand. Bella slowly stepped forward and laid her hand in Aro's.
"Interesting" said Aro. "I see nothing"
He let go of Bella's hand and turned towards his vampire friends.
"I wonder if... Let us see if she is immune to all our powers" said Aro. "Shall we, Jane?"
Jasper pulled me behind him, and Edward did the same with Bella.
"Pain" said Jane and Edward began to fall on his knees.
"Pain" said the girl and my father fell on his knees, he cried out in pain.
"Very good, Jane. Now, Mr. Marshall. You have made quite the mess" said a man who looked the same age as my father.
"Who... who the... the hell are you?" asked my father in pain.
"We are the ones who keep the order. Make sure our secret stays safe... what do we have here?" said the man and walked closer to me. "I hardly smelled her. And that hair... a future Banshee. How lovely. But what are those"
The man held up my hand and looked angry at my father.
"You nearly killed a Banshee. Your own daughter it seems. Alec, kill him slowly please" said the man and out of the boy came black smoke, that began to suffocate my father...

"Emma, wake up, Emma" Jasper held my head and I looked into his eyes.
"I'm sorry" I whispered and looked at Jane, who was still hurting Edward.
"Stop!" shouted Bella. "Don't, please stop! Stop! Just stop hurting him, please! Please!" pleaded Bella.
"Jane?" said Aro and she stopped using her gift.
"Master?" she said.
"Go ahead, my dear" he said and looked at Bella.
"This may hurt just a little" said Jane, but nothing was happening.
Aro began to laugh... "Remarkable!" he said. "She confounds us all. So, what do we do with you now?"
"You already know what you're going to do, Aro" said the oldest man of the 3.
"She knows too much" said the blond one. "She's a liability"
"That's true" sighed Aro. "Felix" he said and the boy next to Bella, the one who killed my father slowly began to move.
"No!" shouted Edward and moved Bella out of the way.
I looked at the vampire who was going to hurt Alice and my eyes began to glow. I was frying his brain and he fell on his knees. Jasper was keeping the other vampires away from me.
But I saw one coming to him and I used my telekinesis to send the vampire flying into the wall.
"God I love you" said Jasper and I smiled, while holding the vampires away from me.
But there were many, so I didn't see what was happening to Edward.
"Please, no! No, please, please!" screamed Bella and the vampires all stopped attacking us. "Kill me, kill me. Not him"
I went closer to Jasper and we kept an eye out for when the vampires might attack us again.
"How extraordinary" said Aro. "You would give up your life for someone like us? A vampire. A soulless monster"
"Just get away from her" said Edward, who was still being held by a big vampire.
"You don't know a thing about his soul" said Bella.
"This is a sadness" said Aro. "If only it were your intention to give her immortality"
"Wait!" shouted Alice and I at the same time, we looked at each other.
"Bella will be one of us" said Alice. "I've seen it"
"I've felt it" I said.
"I'll change her myself" said Alice.
Aro held out his hand and Alice took off her glove and laid her hand in his.
"Mesmerizing, to see what you have seen, before it has happened" said Aro and let go of Alice's hand. "Your gifts will make for an intriguing immortal, Isabella... go now. Make your preparations"
"Let us be done with this" said the oldest one of the 3. "Heidi will arrive any moment. And we don't want a Banshee to be near us then. Thank you, for your visit"
"We'll return the favour" said the blonde one. "I would advise that you follow through on your promise soon. We do not offer second chances"
"Goodbye, my young friends" said Aro.
Jasper pushed me out of the door. And we passed a group of tourists...
"We have to get out of here soon" he said and dragged me fast behind him.
"Jazz? What's..." I began before I felt that the people were walking towards their deaths...
"Emma, focus on me. We're almost out of here" he said.
"No, it's fine" I said, but my eyes were glowing. I could feel them die, painfully. But I could handle it. "I can handle it now. It's okay"
He looked at me and smiled, knowing I wasn't lying to him...

Seclusion
I look at the mountain of paperwork before me. I'm overworked. Slowly, my eyes fall shut. I'm so tired of this... A loud 'bang' caused by dropping off another pile of paperwork made me bolt upright. My maid stands before, scorn in her eyes. Annoyed, I wave her away—this is not the first time that that has happened. And she is not the only one who does that. 'Hated by my own people,' I sigh internally and rub my temples. This is not what my 'freedom' was supposed to look like. My eyes hover over the ring on my finger. I tried, you know? Right now, I only want everything to stop. Maybe read some books, eat something delicious, and nap as often as I want to. Wait...I am the matriarch! Hell, I can do whatever I want! Books? I can pocket whole libraries in my domain. Food? Also, in my domain. Naps? Well, there are many cuddly nooks in there. Sooo...my domain has everything I need—dunno why I never thought of this before. All that's left is to relocate its entrance to another totally secret place. How about that hidden forest temple? Yes, let's go with this! Goodbye obligations, goodbye people who always want to take over, goodbye enemies, and at last, good riddance to the council that tries to marry me off to one of these fat ugly narcissistic nobles. Uhh, I just hope nothing will go wrong during my long-term absence. Nahhh, nothing will happen at all; I am totally sure of it...probably. ______ This is the rewrite of the old story: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/273362/seclusion-old-version--dropped/ Alternate Titel: I lived so long in seclusion that everybody forgot about me

Gods of Arkanoth
The hunter has been betrayed, left alone in the streets of a lugubrious district. Only one goal appears in his eyes: to avenge himself. In his quest to avenge himself, he'll encounter an enigmatic scientist who seems to hide his true nature, a savior pretending to be a God, and the terrible truth of those words, bringing him against something he'd never thought he'd have to affront. This is the odyssey of the hunter, in a quest to put a long overdue end to a war between two worlds. // What to expect:The beginning will surely be intriguing, most of what's happeing won't be directly explained, although there will be some hints about their true roles, but do not worry about some subjects never leaving that misty fog that is unanswered questions! The novel is divided in two parts, the first focusing on uncovering the well-hidden secrets the city of Arkanoth hides, be it concerning its making or its inhabitants. As for the second part, it will be an expedition into the unknown, we could, in a way, say the true start of the journey our three heroes will undertake! I won't say anything more about the second part or else I might tell you an important detail without realizing... As for magic, because yes, there is magic! Although you might not see the shadow of a spell in the first chapters, it will appear in later chapters and will be one of the main subjects of volume 2. There are three heroes, yes, but they will not appear directly. While the first two protagonists appear in quite the beginning, the third will take his time, taking some stroll in the Districts of Arkanoth while we focus on the story of the hunter. But that does not lessen his importance in the story a bit, trust me. What about these three heroes, you say? Well, they all have their own issues, from their character to their torments, and as the story progresses they will have to come clean with their past (character development is to be expected) and will find their reason for fighting, braving all odds. I draw my inspiration from mythology, more precisely Aztec mythology. I want to stay true to a certain extent about it and all the relations between the gods and their role, however I will still change some things to my liking, so do not expect for all of the mythology to be respected to the letter. Finally! I have to say English is a foreign langage for me, so I might not choose the best words or straight-up miswrite something, if it bothers your experience, just tell me in the comments and I'll look into it! It is also my first time writing a book, so some parts might seem sloppy, but I hope I will be able to improve throughout this journey so as to give the most enjoyable reading experience to you. // Who might enjoy this story: Firstly, if you like deep lore and stories in which past plays a big role, you will like how everything unravels to show the hidden truths of the world. However if you do not appreciate not instantly understanding what's happening or who - or even what - this person might be, then you might not appreciate the story. There will be disturbing and gore descriptions, so if you're sensitive, don't like reading about someone being beheaded and such, you should probably pass this one. There is strong langage, although I won't abuse it, I won't be lying saying no insults will appear. Finally, the heroes will not always win, they will sometime lose battles, be it important ones or unimportant, and they will, most of the time, not come out unscathed from those. // Time Schedule : once every two sundays at 7:pm Ps : feel free to tell me if something is bad, or feel wrong with the book, it really helps me. I've written till' chapter 4 (in my mother tongue, so I'll still have to translate), however I'll make some minor and major changes, thus it will take some time to post them. Schedule will probably not change after releasing chapter 4, so don't worry, it won't take even longer to post a chapter than it already is. Enjoy the ride :)
