desire for power {heidi}

[Aro]

France | 1000 B.C.

There was so much to do and Aro wanted it done quickly. Of course he could not rush though such things. Everything needed to be perfect planned through. There was no reason to rush. After all he did have all eternity, but he wanted power now. He wanted to overthrow the Romanians soon it had be nearly three hundred years since he had heard of them and yet they will still planning. It took time. The planning part was easy it was finding more power, talents, vampires. This was the real task. They selected only a few refused many. Their talent had to be worth something it could not be anything. They had to powerful, useful. They could not allow anyone who was weak or useless in their coven. They were particular only allowing the best. After all these vampires were going to help them control the vampire world they could have nothing less.

Aro craved power more than anything and was willing to give anything up to gain it. So much had changed since he was changed. He had come across Marcus and Caius who both craved power who were eager to help him succeed. Once he heard of the Romanians he instantly began planning. Gaining the Romanians trust was one way to gain their power. Find out everything of course with his talent he could know everything. He did know everything. And Marcus was just as helpful he was able to see the bonds who was loyal who was not. Who take out first was the tough decision those most loyal those that would cause problems that would fight more vigorously than the less loyal. Of course through all this planning, all this changing he himself had changed.

He had changed two vampires in his life so far. His sister simply to have power. She did have a talent it wasn't as useful as he liked, but he used what he had. And then there was Sulpicia. Such a great part of his life. He loved to see her happy to hear her laugh. He loved her deeply and he knew she loved him with everything she had. He read this every time he touched her, every time he read her thoughts. He knew. But he wanted power more she was unaware of how far he was willing to go for power. It worried Aro he did not want her unhappy.

Aro was alone for the moment. They needed to find talents so they needed to travel. They had not found many as talents were rare. Aro suppose they were lucky both him and Marcus had talents. As rare as they were. Caius was the one without, but he was just as useful, needed. Aro's eyes were dulling, but he could stand not hunting for a little while longer. Aro was fairly certain he knew where was, but he could not be completely sure. Aro smiled as he picked up the scent of another vampire.

Heidi had been change a while ago. She didn’t remember anything from back then. She could only remember the burning sensation she had felt once she had woken up and the fact that she was thirsty for something she knew wasn’t water. She had walked the street trying to make sense of what she was feeling until she had found a good looking man. She had walked over to him and leaded him into a dark corner almost as if she knew what she was doing. She felt her teeth sank into his tender skin and then dried him. She just knew this was the thing to do.

It was after this that she had lure men and sometimes women into her maze. It was easy as she realised she had a strange power if we could say. She could create the illusion of anything she wanted. But her favourite thing to do was create the illusion of desire. She loved to make people believe they felt something for her that weren’t true. She loved to toy with their mind. She was extremely lonely and it helped to fight boredom. She had also found a few vampires here and there but they weren’t like her. They couldn’t give her anything. Because she knew that with a power like hers she could be able to get someone powerful around her. She realised that she craved power when she had those men under her influence. Being able to do pretty much anything you wanted with someone made you feel like God.


She was walking down the street of Paris looking for something to do. Not that she would absolutely need to do something as just being in Paris was usually enough for her. As she walked she could smell someone close by, but this someone clearly wasn’t a human. No it was a vampire. She smirked thinking that toying with a vampire would be even better then a human. Of course it might be hard but wasn’t that the whole point of it? She walked over to him showing herself making sure he knew what she was.

[Aro]

There was so much they needed to do. Aro was certain they would overthrow the Romanians and soon. They did have forever to accomplish this, and they needed to make sure everything was planned. Aro was uncertain how much time exactly had gone by since he formed his coven. It wasn't really his it was just as much as Marcus and Caius as it was his own. They were the leaders of the coven along with their wives. But this was not enough. They needed more. They needed more talents physical or otherwise. They needed to be strong, powerful. Enough of them to overthrow the Romanians. So they could be put in charge. It took much planning to figure everything out to know exactly what they were going to do. Aro had learned much from the Romanians he had slowly gained their trust. Had an advantage over them he knew their strength, their weakness. With Marucs he also knew who was loyal and who was not. Who to take out first. How to make sure they would gain control. They could not and would not fail. They would be the new leaders soon.

Aro was aware he was in a fairly large city. Usually the larger the city the more likely he would run across another vampire. Perhaps even one that had some sort of talent. One that would allow him to become even more powerful. That was the reason Aro was traveling so he could find talents. Convince them to join him so he can gain power. Aro was certain this would be a fairly easy task. Aro wanted power more than anything and would do anything to gain it. He would risk everything to ensure he would overthrow the Romanians. Aro would be in charge, he would be the leader, he would make sure of this. He wouldn't be the only leader, of course, Marucs and Caius would be there helping him. They always had since the day he had me the two. They would help him and make sure they would be in complete control. They would be in absolute control no one would ever question them.

Aro smiled as he picked up the scent of another vampire. He could not be certain if this vampire would have some useful talent or any want for power. Of course no one could ever want power as much as Aro. He was willing to give anything up to gain it. There was nothing that he would not give up for power. Not even Sulpicia. Even though she meant so much to him. He loved her deeply and always wanted to make sure she was happy. She knew he wanted power more than her. It would be a matter of time before he gained power. Aro cleared his needless thoughts as he spotted the vampire. She wanted him to be aware of what she was. An immortal, a vampire, like him. "Hello my dear," Aro greeted his tone friendly. He was instantly curious about this vampire as he was about any he came across. Most importantly if she had some sort of talent something that would be of use to him.

[moon]

Heidi didn’t have a plan for after. She wanted power but she had no clue on out to get it. She didn’t know what type of power she wanted either. It was easy to say she was somewhat lost. Ever since she had been turned she had been alone. It was somewhat hard for her to deal with everything that had been thrown her way. But she had done good. She had manage to get where she was today even if this was alone. But she knew that sime day she would find the place where she belonged with people who were as talented as her. She knew that there had to be other people out there who just like her were special. This very night she decided that it would be her next project; finding other people like her.

Of course the question was where do you find people as special as you? She had mostly kept her powers under the radar. Yes she still use them fairly often but always made sure no one knew she was using them. She felt that it was better for her to keeo her power to herself. the las thing you wanted was for someone to try and use your own powers against you. She had once met a man who appeared to have the power of vision and yet she never had full proof of that. She had seen him once but she had never lead eyes on him or something powerfull again after that day.


A smile was on her lips when she walked out of the shadow. She wanted to show herself. she could have ran away instead of showing herself, she could have dissapeared. She believed she could have been gone even before he would have had a chance to realised she had been here in the first place. But now there they stood infront of each other. He was good looking but then again all vampires were good looking. But she was sure that he had been good looking even back when he had been alive. ‘’Hello sir’’ She answered him making a small cursty gesture. ‘’My name is Heidi and what would be yours’’ She ask looking at him. She locked her eys on him as if she was trying to see inside of his mind. Which she might have been doing. she wnated to know what would be his desire.

[Aro]

Aro was certain he would find some talent. Perhaps more than one. He knew larger cities would possibly be easier to find what he wanted. What he wanted most was power. He would be certain to gain the power he craved. The Romanians were certainly interesting. Aro had loved meeting them! He had learned so much while all the while not revealing to much about himself. His talent, he need for power. They thought him merely a curious vampire new to this life. He still learning so much about this life. It had been a few centuries they had formed their coven. Marcus, Caius, their wives, one being his sister, and Sulpicia his wife. Now the search for more power. They may not be apart of the 'coven' really more like guards perhaps. They would not be the ones to decide what is to be done. They would be of great help that was for certain.

Aro would have to convince others to join him. He needed to make them realize the power they could have. While it was true Aro, Marucs, and Caius would be the leaders of the coven they would all be just as important. Needed. They needed someone to help them gain the power they craved. The power the Romanians had. And once they gain this power they needed to make sure the laws they set were enforced and what better way than to allow those that had helped them gain power also help with this? They would have the choice to stay with them. Be known as the Volturi. Be known as the most powerful coven in the immortal world. It was the task of finding these vampires, these talents, the want for power.

Aro smiled the vampire greeted him. "Hello my dear it is most splendid to meet you!" It truly was. Aro loved meeting new vampires and more so if this vampire had some talent. He would not know until she told him or if he was able to read her thoughts. He was always curious about those he met and wanted to know as much as he could about them. "Ah, Heidi," Aro's tone was cheerful finally knowing the vampires name. "I am Aro." Aro wanted to know so much more, but he would have to patient. Wait and see if this vampire wanted something in particular or not. After all this was not his home he was far from it. He may be trespassing on territory which really wouldn't bother Aro in the slightest he was merely passing through. And perhaps in the process gaining new talents.

[moon]

Heidi wasn’t sure how she was going to acheive what she currenly wanted and what she would do once she actually find other people like her. What was there to do? Could she be part of something like a family? Of course she wasn’t thinking about the regular type of family with a mother and father. No she wanted something that would just be a family of people like her. A place where she could be save and have the power she knew she deserved. There was so many things she could with her power. She could easily see the possibilities of what else she could get with people who had powers different then hers.

She didn’t know about the word coven but clearly this was what she had been looking for all along. She was tired or roaming the streets alone every night. She was afraid that one day someone might find out about her and she would have no one to protect her, no one to have her back. She wanted somewhere to belong, someone that cared deeply for her. No matter how many people she brought home at night she wanted one day to find someone to be in love with. Someone that she could spend the rest of eternity with.


With Aro so close to her she actually felt confident. She wasn’t about to sense if someone had powers. She felt as if nothing or no one could get to her. ‘’It’s a pleasure to meet you Aro.’’ She said in a sing song voice. ‘’So i have never seen you around here and you don’t strick me as a new vampire...’’ she noted. She had met most vampires around here and this one was well someone she had never seen before or even heard about before. ‘’What brings a gentleman such as yourself here?’’ She asked him.

[Aro]

Aro smiled of course it would be a pleasure to meet him. More so if Heidi had some talent, something that would be of use to him. He needed to gain more power. He needed to find more talents. It was important that he overthrow the Romanians it was his main focus. He did have other matters to think about, but power was the main one. Power was the reason he was here in a foreign country looking for vampires. He craved power more than anything and was willing to do anything to gain it. He wanted power, he needed power. And he would gain it soon enough.

Aro was still new to this life. He had so much to learn still even if he had been around for a while. There was always something he still needed to know about.. Aro did not pay much attention to time. After all he had so much more to focus on. Power being the main one. "I believe this is the first time I have been to this country." Aro had traveled much during his vampire life, but still has not made it to every country. There was still many places he had not been to. Perhaps he would find many more talents during his travels. That was the very reason for this trip to find talents, vampires to join him. "No, my dear, I have been around for some time." Aro could not give an exact amount of years he had been around. He could estimate about how long, but it would not be accurate he did not give much thought to time.

Aro smiled at Heidi's question. Of course how to answer back? What would be the best way to gain this vampire. It would be so much easier if he knew more about her. If he knew she did have some talent. "I am merely traveling." This was true he was traveling and had been for a while. "I am in search of others like myself. Those who are talented, powerful." Aro needed to find such vampires. He would have nothing, but the best. Nothing but the most rarest and most valuable.

[moon]

Heidi noticed the smile appearing on his lips when she said it was a pleasure to meet him. It was almost as if he knew that of course she would be pleased. He was probably used to having women say this type of words to him. She was quite disappointed that he didn’t seem to be over taken by her looks. She wasn’t used to this. Usually it only took a little while before anyone would fall for her look. But for some reason it appear that Aro was not the type to. She decided not to use her powers on him just yet.

She had always loved the chase of her pray and Aro appeared to be a challenging one. She loved a challenge. She listened to him standing still like a statue. She hadn’t fully learnt yet to act like a human in order not to attract too much attention to one. Beside she clearly loved attention in anyway shape or form. “That would clearly explain why we have never met before.” Heidi had also traveled quite a lot herself in the past but she had felt in love with this city. Heidi had also been around for quite sometime but she decided to keep this fact for herself right now. She wanted to see what Aro had to offer. There had to be a reason why he was here in the first place and she wanted to know what that was.

She nodded and looked around as if she was expecting someone to jump out from the dark and attack them if she dare to speak the words. She had never shared her talent with other people. No one had ever asked about it or even mentioned that there was such a thing as powers. But now there he was talking about talent and powers. “What time of powers are you looking for?” She asked him stepping closer to him. Closer then what politeness would agree.

[Aro]

Aro had come across a few vampires. Most did not have talents and were not good enough to be apart of his guard. He needed vampires that would be worth having. Those that would be of use to him. He would not allow just anyone to join him. There was much to consider when allowing one to come with him. Even if agreed with having such a vampire join Marcus and Caius would need to put their opinion on the matter as well. Aro would love to gain more talents the sooner he could take his power the better.And the best way to do this is to find talents.

Aro kept his attention on Heidi as she stepped closer. "Talents that will be of use." Aro stated. His tone still held the friendliness as before. He was curious about this vampire. If she perhaps any talents he would want. "Perhaps you, yourself, have some sort of talent?" Aro questioned curiosity in his voice. He was very curious he wanted to know everything about this vampire. He wanted to know if she would have some talent. Something that would allow the Volturi to become stronger, better, more powerful.

Aro knew he was a bit of ways from gaining his power. But he would and soon. It would be only a matter of time. He needed to gain talents, become more powerful. Before he could attack the Romanians. He needed to make sure his coven would be powerful enough. He would not allow anything else. There was so much planning that was needed so much to consider. It was all a matter of time. Before he would gain his power.

[moon]

Talent of use he had said. She of course had talent. And she knew it could be use, but the thing she was wondering was what it would mean for her. Of course if she was to share her powers with Aro she would need to have something in return. She looked around making sure they were alone. She didn’t want to use her powers in front of someone else.

She locked her eyes on his and started to work her magic. She wanted to make him believe he had strong desire for her. She was pretty sure it would work but then again he probably had powers on his own and might be able to sense what she was doing even before she had a chance to start. She tilted her head to the side and after a few seconds she stopped working her powers on him.

“Oh I have power Aro…The question now is…what would you have to offer me if I decide to actually allow you to use my powers?” she asked him. “Because there is a cost to everything.” She finished waiting to see what he would say.

[Aro]

Aro felt a desire to want Heidi. Which wouldn't be to difficult believe if she did indeed have some talent. Something that would be of use. But this most certainly was not the normal desire. It seemed much more intensified. The desire for Heidi started when she locked eyes with him. Perhaps she had some sort of power. Something that made one want her or something. The desire for her went as quickly as it came. Aro could already begin to think of ways that could be of use to him. He would certainly want Heidi in his coven. Not the family that Aro had slowly formed starting with his two brothers. Something different more like guards. To help them defeat the Romanians.

What he could offer her? Aro did not see that as much of a question. Who would not want to join him and his coven? To have the power he craved he needed other talents. This would allow him to take the power he wanted. To defeat the Romanians this is what he wanted more than anything else. "Power." This is what Aro could offer her and what he wanted more than anything else. "I plan to take control of our world. I am in need of talents those that will allow me to gain this." Aro was careful with his words. Not revealing who exactly he was going to overthrow. If one knew about the Romanians it would be easy to figure out who exactly he meant.

Aro was well aware this was a high cost. Aro would risk anything to have this power. He didn't care what it would cost him or what he would have to do. "Of course, my dear." Aro would agree, but it did not matter to him. As long as he had his power it would be worth anything. He would give anything to have power and he would freely admit this if questioned. His brothers most likely knew this. Even his wife who was not to fond of the idea. He would even give her up, but no one really knew how power hungry he was. What he was willing to do.

[moon]

With the look in his eyes she knew her power had work. Even if a part of her how doubted it she was glad to see it had worked. She had never meet someone who could go against her will but then again she had rarely meet people with powers. And she was sure that Aro had power. She just didn’t know what it was yet. But she was sure she knew she wanted, no she needed to find out. She decided to wait untill he told her what she could get in return before asking what his power was.

At first he said only one simple word. Power. But he didn’t stop there. No he had bigger plantds to get powers. He wanted to take control of their world. And by their world she figured he meant the vampire world. She knew that eventually someone would take control of their world. There was no way they could keep in quiet like this for long. They had been human before. And in every world someone needed to be. And she’d rather be with the person who wanted power and not against him.


“I’ll follow you if and only if you can promise me protection for eternity.” She said. She wasn’t just another pretty face in the crowd. She knew that eventually the fight for power would be ruthless and she knew people would want her power. She wanted to decide who was to get it and for some reason. Aro felt like the kind of person who could deal with her power. “but there is also something you need to tell me…what is your power dear Aro.” She asked him finally.

[Aro]

Aro listen to Heidi's one request. That certainly shouldn't not be to hard to achieve and it was reasonable. After all if he could gain her he would be gaining more power. More talents. That is exactly what he needed. Exactly why he was here traveling. He needed to find talents. He needed to gain power. He would make sure he could overthrow the Romanians and gain their power. They were so very close to succeeding in this. It would take more time to be certain, but Aro could not be sure how much more time. Aro and his brothers had plans, strategies on how to gain power. Now it was a matter of time. They needed a few more vampires, a few more talents. Those who would be more than willing to help them gain this power. Once they achieved power there would be so much more them to do.

"As long as you will stay with us I will give you what you request." As long as Heidi would agree to stay with Aro and his brothers. As long as she would stay with this new coven that has been created, the Volturi, then Aro would make sure nothing would happen to her. They would gain so many more talents, strong powerful ones, that would help achieve this protection she wanted. Nothing would happen to her if she proved to be as useful as Aro hoped. As long as her talent was of use to him he would want her to stay.

Aro smiled as Heidi questioned his power. She no doubt knew he had one. "I can know every thought you have ever had." Aro's talent of much use. Aro loved knowing everything about a person. It also allowed him to know far more than one would ever want him to know. He could know so much more about a person, their talent if they had one, every secret, everything was his. There was a limitation he needed physical contact to use his talent. With such a powerful talent he didn't mind if he needed physical contact or not. It allowed him to know everything and prepare how to plan against someone. Right now it was the Romanians. He knew much about them and he would gain their power. He would have power and his coven would soon be known as the leaders of their world.

[moon]

She knew there was a lot Aro was keeping to himself. And Heidi was mad about it. she figured that she just needed to know the essential and maybe a bit more. But not too much if things were to go sour she wanted to be able to save herself. Yes she would follow Aro around the world and do as she was asked but if her life was in danger she would of course leave. No one was worth dying for…not even if it meant dying for power. She didn’t know what his plan was other then the fact that it had something to do with taking over their world. And this she had to admit was slitghly annoying her. she knew that with her power she would be requested to help she wanted to know what other powers she would be working with.

She nodded. “I will stay with you Aro.” She promised him. There was no way she was going to move away from someone who wanted and who was probably going to get power. Especially when that person was offering her protection. She was not stupid she didn’t want to die and knew that eventually living on her own might get hard.

Then he started to talk about his own power and she couldn’t help but gasp. Now this sure was something else. Her power was useful but knowing every thought about a person would give you the opportunity to know everything about them and then it was easy to know where to hit in order to get to them. This power actually scared her a bit. She wasn’t sure if she wanted to have Aro know everything about her this was a dangerous power. “What other powers have you gotten to join you so far?” she asked him. She was starting to feel competitive with people she didn’t even know.

[Aro]

Aro smiled at Heidi as she agreed to stay with him. "Wonderful, my dear!" Aro was very pleased to have acquired this talent. The first among many he would have to gain. It would take time to be certain. The Romanians were certainly a powerful coven the very reason they were in control of their world. However, Aro disagreed with much they did. They would be in power and they would enforce their own rules. Far differently than how the Romanians ruled. For one they allowed the humans around them to know of their existence this was something Aro disagreed with all together. Aro would not allow humans to know about them if he was in charge nor would his 'brothers.' This was something that would be fixed quickly if they were in charge. And they would be. Aro was certain of this. It would take much planning. They were far from coming to terms with what they needed to do exactly. They had a general idea yes, but it would take more time.

Aro had the wonderful pleasure of meeting the Romanians. It had been wonderful to come in contact with them! Aro certainly hoped to visit with them again. Perhaps figure out their weaknesses know where the best place to attack would be. Be complete confident that they could defeat the Romanians. Aro would make sure they would win before he would even consider attacking. But to succeed they needed to many more talents and it would take time. Heidi being the first of the vampires he had acquired for power. They would not be exactly apart of the coven, but simply there to allow them to gain power. Aro smiled at Heidi's question. "You, my dear, are the first I have acquired. There is others my brothers, Marcus and Caius, and our wives, Sulpicia, Didyme, and Athenodora. We are trying to gain others who will allow us to become more powerful. To overthrow the Romanians." This was an important goal and something they would succeed in. It was only a matter of time before they gained other powerful, useful talents.

Aro suppose he could explain what Marcus and Didyme's talents were they were the only other one's aside himself who had talents."Marcus has the ability to sense relationships." Marcus talent was very useful. It would prove to very useful when they began to attack the Romanians they would know who was loyal and who to attack first. "My sister, Didyme, has the ability to make those around her happy. There seems to be an aura of happiness around her it's impossible to not be happy." Aro had hoped his sister ability would have been of more use that it currently was. He would found some use for it eventually perhaps. He had changed her in hopes she would have a powerful talent like himself, but she did not. He only changed her for power.

[moon]

Heidi was glad she had finally found a place where she could stay and be safe. She knew that everyday there was more vampires getting created and one day some would have to step up in order to make sure someone was there to make rules. She felt that Aro was rather close to taking this spot and she wanted to be close to him once this happened. She knew the Romanians were currently in charge but she doubted this would last long. She had heard a lot of vampires saying they didn’t agree with the way the Romanian did things around here. She didn’t agree either. She wondered what Aro thought about this. she should have asked this before she decided to follow him.




She had been about to ask him so when he started to speak again and she knew better then to cut off someone who was power hungry. She wanted to let him have the upper hand on her. it was a small sacrifice to have her life safe. She was over whelmed with joy once she found out she was the first one they had gotten. This was something she quite enjoy. Especially now she knew there was three brothers and 3 wives all together. She knew she would never really be part of them but at least she would count herself as the first to have be part of Aro’s clan. And then he answered the question that had been pressing against her lips.

He wanted to overthrow the Romanians. This would of course be a rather hard task but if Aro did manage to get more talent like he wanted things would become more and more simpler. “and what do you do once you are in power Aro?” She asked him, she wanted to know what were his plans, what he wanted to change. What would be her tasks. She could see the use in Marcus’s talent but she wondered what Aro planned to do with Didyme’s power. But she didn’t ask. He was her sister after all. “Seemed we already have a few talents on hand.” She told him.

[Aro]

Aro smiled at Heidi as she question what he was planning to do. There was much he would change. He would be in power. It was only a matter of time. They still had much they had to do and it would take time. A few more years he was not certain how long this would take. He would only take those that would be of use to him. Only those that would allow him to overthrow the Romanians. "The Romanians are the leaders now, but there is many ideas I disagree with. The main one being how they allow humans to know of our existence. It will be of the utmost importance they do not know about us. I won't allow it." Aro did not want humans to know of their existence it was something he wanted to prevent. This too would take much time. Humans were well aware of their existence it would take a time to make vampires realize they were in charge. To know they would enforce their rules. They would have demonstrations of what happens when one breaks their rules. They will be destroyed without any heistation.

Aro would agree they had a few talents, but no where near enough. "As true as that is we need so much more, my dear." Aro would not be satisfied with a few talents. He wanted more and he would probably always want more. Once he gained power he would seek more ways to gain more. Talents would be a wonderful way to do so as well as enforcing their rules. The Volturi would be better rulers. He would prove how much better, how much grander they were from the Romanians. The Romanians would be weak compared to them. It was all a matter of time. The most important goal right now was to gain more talents. They had to find more talents that was the only way they could gain this power. Aro was lucky enough to have across Heidi her talent would be of much use.

Aro wonder briefly what kind of talents he would come across. How powerful they would be. Aro may try to find another talent or two with Heidi with him or he may return to Volterra. His brothers would no doubt have to meet young Heidi. She would be of great use to them. Perhaps returning to Volterra would be the best idea and perhaps on the way they would come across a few vampires that would be most wonderful! Aro could only imagine what talents he may gain. As long as the vampires would prove to be loyal to him and his brothers he would be satisfied, but they had to have some sort of talent. Something that would give them an advantage.

[moon]

Heidi listen to Aro with much interest. She wanted to see what ideas he had in his head. She wanted to know more about him. He was now in a way her boss, her mentor. The one she would follow until the end. She nodded. “The Romaninas don’t know how to rule the world Aro. We can make a better job then them that is for sure…” she told him. Humans knowing about them, this was something she had always hated. She didn’t believe that humans should know about their existence unless it was before they were eaten then yes that was fine. But in any other circumstance she didn’t believe it was appropriate.



“But where do we find those talents Aro? Do we simply walk the earth in hopes of finding one or two?” she wasn;t sure if this really was the best way to go but then again what else could they do? It’s not as if they could make a huge announcement. Things needed to be down under the radar the Romanians couldn’t know what Aro was planning to do. They would try to stop him and Heidi wasn’t sure if she was strong enough to put her charm on all the Romanians. There was so many of them the task would be quite hard. She would need someone else around that could do something else so she could take on a few of them.


She looked around. “I think we should leave…” she mentioned. They had been standing at the same place for quite some time now and of course this was not good. They needed to be on the move almost all the time. There was no time to loose. She didn’t want to raise any suspicions. “where do you live.” Yes she knew she was inviting herself over but she figured he wouldn’t mind. She was now working for him and he had promised to protect her and how could he protect her if she was not with him. It didn’t make any sense.

[Aro]

[[Short, sorry. I haven't been feeling well for the past few days]]

Aro smiled yes they would be far grander than the Romanians had ever dreamed of being. They certainly would be better Aro would do things much differently than the Romanians that much was apparent. "Yes we will." Aro was quiet confident in this and it was most wonderful that Heidi agreed with him. After all she was going to be apart of this coven she was going to help him overthrow the Romanians. It would be expected that she would agree with him. "We shall be far grander than they have ever dreamed." This to Aro would make sure would happen. They would be far more powerful than they had ever been. It would only be a matter of time before they proved just that.

"For now yes." For now it would be best to simply search for talents. Aro wanted to be certain the talents he would acquire would be the most useful. "After all I will not accept just anyone to join us. They must have a talent worth having a talent that will give us an advantage allow us to overthrow the Romanians." It would only be a matter of time before Aro gained the talents he needed. They needed to be stronger than the Romanians and well prepared. It would take some time to be certain but well worth it in the end. Aro would be the leader along with his brothers, Marucs and Caius, they would enforce the rules they would set forth. The first and foremost would be keeping their existence a secret.


"Yes perhaps that would be best." Aro agreed perhaps they would be able to find another talent or two that would be most wonderful. Of course if they did not Aro would not mind after all he had found one talent others should be easy to follow. Aro would be eager to gain new talents this he was certain of. "Volterra, Italy." Aro was certain his brothers would want to meet Heidi and know her talent. She would be of great use to them as will be many other talents. They had to make sure they were powerful and had enough talents to overthrow the Romanians. There was still much to think about when overthrowing the Romanians.

[moon]

[[Don’t worry hun. Hope you are feeling better. ]]

“they will never know what hit them.” She told him. She had been around the Romanians a few times before and they were too sure of themselves. They would never ever think someone could actually try to over throw them. They were in for a surprise of course. “Do you want me to try and spy on them Aro?” she asked him. It would be kind of risky but she knew she could do it. she just needed to have two or three Romanians. More then that she wasn’t sure if her power would be strong enough to take care of all of them.

Heidi tried to hide the pout she could feel coming on her lips. She thought the task of findking new talents sounded rather boring. Actually finding one would be great but the wait of trying to find one didn’t sound really interesting. But if it was something that needed to be done. Be it. she was glad to know that Aro thought her talen was worthy of him. He hadn’t said it clearly but she could hear it in that phrase. She loved the praised it was giving her. she wanted to meet the rest of Aro’s family. She wanted to see the powers they had.

“Well then I think we should get to Volterra.” She told him. It was think in the dead of the night but she knew that that time would pass rather quickly. Specially that they needed to get somewhere. She didn’t want to have to try and find a place to hide from the sun at the last minute. She wanted to be gone from here as soon as possible and start her new life.

[Aro]

[[Thanks! I am feeling slightly better.]]

Aro smiled at Heidi's statement he would certainly agree with that. They would succeed in defeating them with ease Aro would make certain of that. Aro liked Heidi's idea it would be most wonderful! "That is a wonderful idea, my dear, I will know all I can before we attack." Of course Aro would have to make certain they had enough power enough talents. This would no doubt take some time. Time was something they did have but Aro did not want to wait to long. He wanted power, he wanted the position of being the leader quickly. But he would not be to hasty he would make certain his plan would work along with any ideas his brothers may have. "Perhaps when you do go check on the Romanians you may find a talent or two to join us. That would be most wonderful!" Aro would be very pleased if Heidi was able to find another talent to join them. Of course once Aro did return to Volterra either him or his brothers would have to search again. They had to gain as many talents as they could. They would have to make sure they could overthrow the Romanians. This was their goal right now to focus on gaining enough talents.

"Yes I am certain my brothers would be most interested in meeting you as the rest of my coven." Aro knew Caius and Marcus would be interested in meeting Heidi. Her talent would be very useful and it would appear she would loyal to them. She was the first to join them the first talent to enable them to overthrow the Romanians. It was most wonderful once the first talent came perhaps the others would follow quickly. Aro would love that! To have many talents that is exactly what they needed. Aro could only imagine what kind of talents he may come across. Rare, vaulable, powerful talents at that. Aro would take nothing less. He would make sure they were powerful enough to overthrow the Romanians. They would not fail they would prove how much more powerful and grander they were. All vampires would be made aware of this."It shouldn't take to long to reach Italy." It would take some time to be sure but it would not be to long. Aro motioned for Heidi to follow as he made his way toward Italy, toward his home.

Aro was most eager to return home. To speak with his brothers and Heidi's idea of spying would be of much help. Perhaps Marcus could go with her and see if the ties of loyalty had changed any at all. It was important to know the relationships within the coven. This would help them plan their attack. Aro wanted to know all he could before he did attack. He would make sure he looked at each side of the situation be prepared know what would happen if he was to attack. Take out those who were loyal first make the Romanians fall. He would destroy everything they had. Make them into nothing at all. He would perhaps let the leaders live. Perhaps let them see just how grand the Volturi were and would become. They would prove how powerful they were. They would make sure they appeared justified in their actions of course. And would make certain no human knew of their existence that was very important. Aro did not want humans to know of them. Once he gained power, once them came closer at the very least what they would do would become more certain. For now it was the task of gaining more talents, more power.

[moon]

((Glad to hear this!))
She liked the way that everything seems to excited Aro to the highest point. He was almost like a child in a way. Amazed with everything. She wondered how that would work once he got the power he wanted. What would he do with it? For some reason she could see him building a slide of some sort. Silly of course. Knowing everything before the attack would work to their advantage. Every fighter had some weak points. And she wanted to make sure she knew the Romanian’s before they did went for the attack. They would only have one chance and after that all would be gone. They needed to succeed of the first try because their wouldn’t be a second try. She moved a finger to her lips thinking. “Yes I could find talents. This leads me to believe that maybe the Romanians already have talents on their side. I would need protection to get there.” She told him. It was too risky for her to go on her own. She didn’t want to take any chances with her own life.




She was also quite interested in meeting the rest of the coven. She had never really been part of one. She had mostly been on her own ever since she had been changed. She had moved from one group to another at some point but she never belong in one real group. It just didn’t felt like the right time before. But this time she knew she was making the right decision. Heidi started to walk behind Aro it took her only a few paces before she was next to him again. She didn’t remember being to Voltera before. She wondered what it looked like, what the people were like and specially what the blood tasted like. New blood this sure was going to be interesting. New people to play with as well.



She wondered as well where her place would fall within the family. She was the first talent he had gotten which meant that she was the brand new vampire to join them. It was a plus because that almost made her better then any of the other vampires they would eventually get. But it also meant she was going to be the first to meet the family their first intruder so to speak. She had no idea how the would react to her being around them. She really doubted that if the family didn’t like her Aro would go against them. Then what would happened to her? Would they let her go and simply make her disappear?

[Aro]

Aro smiled at Heidi's words. He would love if she found some talents. It was of the utmost importance that Aro gain more talents. That they become that more powerful. Of course they had to be extremely careful make sure the Romanians were unaware of them. Aro would not risk anything yet. He had to be completely confident. He would make sure they were powerful enough to overthrow the Romanians that they would indeed be the leaders of their world. Nothing would please Aro more than to gain that position, that power. Aro was eager to see just how many talents they could gain. How powerful they would become. Aro would make certain once they overthrew the Romanians they would prove just how powerful, how much grander they were from the Romanians. Aro would make certain they were left with nothing. That they had no chance to even think of striking back. The leaders perhaps would stay alive it would all depend. This was something else Aro needed to focus on and discuss with his brothers.

"Yes they do have a few talents." Aro had visited the Romanians a few times before. He wanted to know everything he could about them. Know their weakness, know their strengths. He wanted all the facts he could have before he attacked. "I have met the leaders Stefan and Vladimir. They are powerful this much is certain, but that's not to say they cannot be overthrown. I know some facts about them. I've attempted to gain their trust to know as much as I can about them. They suspect nothing as of yet." Aro would not allow them to think Aro was wanting their position wanting to take their power. In time they would know yes, but now yet. Not until they attacked. Then they would know what Aro had been planning all this time. How kind and friendly he had appear had been only to gain information, to know as much as he could about them.

"Ah, yes, of course!" Aro had promised Heidi protection and he would make certain she would have this. He would never break his promise at least not right now. He had no intention of changing his mind her talent would be of great use to the Volturi and allow them to overthrow the Romanians. "I can go with you or one of my brothers. Perhaps Marcus his talent would be very useful. We can know if any loyalties has changed with in their coven. It is very important to know as much as we can about them." Marcus would go with Heidi Aro was certain. Convincing him would not be to difficult though at times he could be distracted from power because of Didyme, Aro's sister. She meant everything to him it was obvious without reading his thoughts but regardless of this Marcus would go with Heidi. He needed to find out if any loyalties had changed he needed to watch the relationships. "Unless perhaps we gain a new talent how wonderful that would be!" Aro was most eager to gain a new talent. He would be very pleased to find a second to join them.

[moon]

Aro seemed lost in his mind. Heidi wondered what was going on beneath the pale skin of her future leader. What images were going on in there. Was he imagining some other talents? If so what were they? How did they compare to her own talent? Would the ones they found be better then hers? Then what? Would Aro betray her? She doubted so. Even if they did find better powers then her own, her talent was still rather useful. She could get them anyone at any given moment. But her first stop would be the Romanian. Knowing what was their desire. Maybe she could even bring their leader to Aro. Yes Aro would like that she was sure. She would also need to find a way to please his wife. She was sure that if Aro’s wife decided that she hated Heidi things would eventually heat up. There was a lot to think about but right now she needed to focus on the task at hand. She was getting ahead of herself.


The Romanians did have a few talents up their sleeves. “you can steal their talents away from them.” She said simply. Making the Romanian army as small as possible sounded like the best thing for them to do, there would be less death. Not that Heidi really cared about killing a few people but she wasn’t sure if Aro would be pleased if she ended up killing people with talents they could use. And beside how interesting would it be to get the Romanians with their own talents. That way everyone would know that Aro was the strongest. No one would ever try to get against them. No one would want to take the chance. “what do you know about them so far.” She inquire curiously. The more she knew about people, the easier it was to create the illusion. She could use what she knew about them to get closer. To make sure they would follow her. it was good that Aro was already close to them, that way it would be easier for her to enter their territory and work her magic. Not that she had any trouble with a challenge.


she felt better once Aro had mention that he would provide her with some protection. For now he appeared to be a man of his words. Which was good. She would have hated to have to go back on her own words. But if Aro was not able to provide his end of the barging then yes of course she would leave. Not that she was really looking forward to having to do this. She nodded Marcus. So he was the one that could feel the loyalties between people. He would probably be able to find the weakest link within the coven, and who would be the hardest to break. Heidi would start with the weak point and then work her way up the ladder. “I will bring you back a talent Aro.” She promised him. She wanted him to be proud of her. she wanted to be the best of the people that would be around him that were not family.

[Aro]

"Perhaps." This very well could work. Aro could imagine the Romanians reactions their own former members attacking them. But loyalty may be a problem. Just how could they make sure the Romanians would be loyal? It would be a risk, a challenge, but most likely well worth it. "But this could cause difficulties we could not be certain they would remain loyal with us and even if they were in the start they could change. They would know everything we would have to destroy them if that was the case. Make sure the Romanians are not aware." Aro would not risk having the Romanians know what exactly he was planning. For now they were completely unaware and this is exactly how Aro wanted to keep it. There was still so much he needed to plan to much he needed to figure out but they had time. Aro wanted to have their power soon but he had patience he could wait. After all even after he gained their position, their power there was still so much he would have to do. Even for that there was much to plan. But i they were able to gain the talents of the Romanians it would be wonderful! But something he would need to discuss with his brothers.

There was so much more Aro wanted to know about the Romanians. So much he needed to know. He would know all about them in time. "There is so much I need to know about them. I know little about them. They don't try to hide just how cruel and harsh they truly are. They are very strict rulers but at the same time they allow humans to know about us. Something I will not allow. Once I am in charge along with my brothers there will be drastic changes." Aro would make certain of this. He would not allow humans to know of their existence. It would make everything so much easier of their were unaware. It was not the best idea to allow humans to know of them. But just how would he make certain they did not know of them? For years the Romanians had allowed humans to know of them. This would no doubt take some time. Even more after Aro was in power. Aro would also want to appear justified in everything he did. He did not want to show the vampire world just how power hungry he truly was. It would be much different than how the Romanians were ruling.

Aro smiled at Heidi it would truly be wonderful if she was to bring a talent back. "That would be most wonderful, my dear!" Aro would love to gain more talents. Heidi was the first among many. They needed to gain power. They needed to prove just how powerful they were and would be. Certainly after they overthrew the Romanians they would gain more power. Aro would want more power this much he was certain. Even if it was merely gaining more talents to allow them to become that more powerful. But the first task at hand was to overthrow the Romanians. It was best to focus on this for now. There was so much he needed to discuss with his brothers and he would soon enough. Volterra was not to far off though it would still take some time. Aro was eager to introduce Heidi to his brothers and even the rest of the coven, the wives, Heidi had a useful talent and it would be most wonderful to have more. Aro could simply imagine the talents he may gain and just how wonderful that would be!

[moon]

Heidi listened to Aro as he told her his worries about her plan. She thought for a minute she was sure there was a way for her to over come this. “well if one of your brother can sense relationship, Marcus?” She was pretty sure that’s the name he had given her. “well then we could easily know when they were to switched side. And if there are to switch side then we simply get rid of them.” She told him. Heidi didn’t mind killing people who thought they could turn on her. “trust me Aro, the Romanians would have no idea what is going on, we are not going to take their people away too fast. We want to take our time doing so, like a game of cat and mouse.” She said licking her lips. Of course she knew that Aro would need to discuss this with the rest of the coven she was not part of the family. But then what was she. She looked at Aro her red eyes locked on his. “Aro you have your brothers and your wives. Now what am I in all of this?” She asked him.

Heidi was wondering what they would do with all the humans who knew about vampires. It was not as if they could kill them all. It would take an army in order to do so, and if a whole population was to disappear this would surely raise questions. Question they wouldn’t need. “Aro what do you intend to do with the humans who know about us?” she asked him. She felt like she could pretty much ask Aro anything and he would answer her. she was not his equal nor was she looking to be but she knew that there was many things he would share with her if she was to ask. Things that was okay for her to know. Of course she expected some secrets to be kept but currently she was the only one of his coven who was not part of the family. That either made her special or a complete outsider, she’d rather be special. “What else do you want to know specifically about the Romanians?” she wondered. She wanted to know with what she should start. Where she should start. There were so many different options. So many different paths for her to take. She wanted to make sure she was going to take the right one and make Aro proud.

Heidi nodded. If talents was Aro wanted, talents was what Aro was going to get. She wasn’t sure how she would work around finding them. She had never really met anyone with powers before. That she knew of. That was the problem. She had never really stopped and looked around to find them. Maybe a lot had passed her buy without her knowing. She would have to be more careful the next time she was to encounter a vampire. Look out for the signs. Look for what made them different then the rest of the world. And on top of that, she had to make sure the powers were useful. Thought she was pretty sure each power could have it’s own use in this battle.

[Aro]

Aro consider Heidi's words. Marcus gift was very useful but they would still have to be careful. If those they tried to gain even slightly became disloyal they would have to destroy them immediately. There simply could be no other choice. They had to make sure those they chose would remain loyal and if they did not they would be destroyed. But Aro did not want to destroy those that were of great use. "If there is a talent of great use I would hate to destroy such a talent. It would be such a waste. We would have to come up with some other alternative." There was much to consider with this situation. The would have to be extremely careful Aro did not want the Romanians to suspect anything. "My dear I don't want to waste to much time trying to gain the Romanians talents." Aro would not be to hasty but he wanted to gain their power quickly. "Those who are strongest are very loyal to the Romanians I am certain. But there may be a few who are not." Aro was most curious to know just who had talents within the Romanian coven and he did not. He was aware the two leaders had no talents but just how many within in their coven did? There was so much about the Romanians Aro needed to find out. If they were to gain one of their own then perhaps they would know all they needed to. Of course if Aro could get close enough to the leaders he could know all of this himself it would simply take one touch.

What would be Heidi and those who joined them? Certainly separate from the family but still within the coven. There would be many more that would join Aro would make certain of that. He wanted his coven to be the most powerful one in existence. Once he overthrew the Romanians he would prove this point even more. "You will still be apart of our coven, however, you will be separate from the leaders, the family of the coven." This was quiet certain those they joined because of their talents would not be making the decisions therefore they had to be separate. Though still consider apart of the coven. "There will be many more to join I am certain of this. I will make sure our coven is the most powerful coven in existence. We will be in complete control." Aro would have to discuss in more detail with his brothers about this. To know what they thought Aro would make certain they had more power than any other coven. And keep gaining it as well. "There is not much we can really do about the humans." Aro would simply make certain vampires kept their existences a secret. "We will have to simply make sure all vampires keep our existence a secret. It will take time for humans to think otherwise. It would be best to focus on gaining our power for the moment than humans. They are the least of my worries." Aro wanted his power more than anything it would take years for humans to disbelieve in them. When the time came Aro would focus on what exactly do about them.

"There is so much I do not know. So much I want to know." Aro wanted to know all he could about the Romanians if he could simply touch one he would know everything he needed to know. "If I could simply read their thoughts I would know everything. I want to know as much as I can. I want to know exactly how many is within the coven, how many have talents, how powerful each talent is, just what talents they do have. Any weakness or strengths they may have. All of this would rely upon the leaders. If I could simply touch Stefan or Vladimir I would know all of this. But I have not gained their full trust as of yet." Heidi could find out some information being a stranger within the coven. Simply find out what she could that would be all he would request. Marcus would be of great to Heidi he would know exactly what Aro wanted to know. "Simply find out as much as you can. That is all I request you do not have to find out to much perhaps a talent or so would be most wonderful. I want to know what we will be going up against. " Aro smiled as they entered Volterra. "This, my dear, is Volterra. I am most certain my brothers will be most eager to meet you!" Aro was very pleased to have found a talent and there would be many more that would come afterwords.

[moon]

Talents. The more Heidi talked with Aro the more she realised he was clearly obsess with this finding of talents. Maybe he was even too obsessed. She wondered if this might consist of his down fall. She might have to keep an eye out for this. She wondered if he would take the chance of keeping someone close to him that was not trust worthy only on the account that he had a good power? She nodded when he said he didn’t want to loose too much time getting talents from the Romanians. So he was not going overly insane with talents. That clearly was a start. She wondered how did the Romanians had found talents and how they were planning on keeping them. This was something they might work on if time served right.

She listened to him before speaking. “I understand I was not expecting to be part of the leader or the family of the coven.” She told him. No she had not been expecting as such but still a part of her had hope...no need to dwell on it. She was not part of the family but part of the coven, this would need to be enough for her. She was glad to be part of this even if her part was small. She was quite surprised he didn’t want to do anything about the humans just yet, but she was not going to push it. All in due time of course. They would have to remake humans believe that vampires didn’t exist anymore. That was going to be tricky but she knew that once Aro was at the top and in charge of everything, things would fall into the right place.


Aro was taking a careful approached when it came to the Romanians which Heidi understood. Yet she was more the type of person who would strike first. It was probably the reason why Heidi was not a leader. She didn’t have what it took do to so. But she clearly had what it took to be a soldier and Aro had seen this. “Soon Aro you will have more information and hopefully this information will make it easier for you to get close to them and maybe touch them.” She told him. Yes that would be most perfect. Soon enough they were into what Aro refer to as Volterra. She looked around. “This is beautiful Aro.” She told him. She had never been here before and she started to wonder why. She nodded she was eager to meet his brothers as well yet at the same time she was anxious. If they didn’t like her she didn’t think Aro would keep her around and she had learned to much to be kept alive if that was the case. No they had to like her, she had to show them she was worthy of being around them.

[Aro]

Heidi and whoever else would join Aro and his coven would certainly not be apart of their family. They would be separate but still within the coven. And Aro would only choose them for their talents. If they did not have a talent of use then they would not be apart of their coven. It was as simple as that. They needed powerful, useful talents. Those that would be of useful to the Volturi. Aro was eager to find more talents and Heidi has promised to bring back a talent. This was something he would make sure she kept her word to. For if he could not trust her with this simple promise then how could he trust her at all? Of course once Aro reached Volterra Aro could ask his brother, Marcus, just how loyal she was. Or he could simply read his thoughts that would work best. No words would be needed while Heidi was close by. Aro wanted to know immediately just how loyal she planned to be. She had seemed interested in joining the Volturi but that did not mean she would remain loyal. Though Aro was quiet certain of this.

Aro smiled at Heidi's words. Yes he would know all of the Romanians secrets soon enough. As soon as he gathered all the information he needed that is when he would strike. When they least expected it. Of course Aro would take his time with this. He needed to make sure that the Romanians did not expect anything and that Aro had enough power, talents to overthrow the Romanians. "We will take things slow until we have enough talents. Once we are certain we are powerful enough to overthrow the Romanians that is the time when we will strike. Only when I know all I need to know and have enough talents will the attack happen." This was Aro's plan there was more ideas, suggestions that could be added, of course, but Aro would stay with this plan for now. It would become more complex for they had to figure out just how to attack the Romanians. Just what would be the best way to attack. They would have to have several plans for this. To make sure if one plan fell through they would have a back up. For Aro would not be defeated. He would overthrow the Romanians. He would not accept failure.

Aro simply nodded at Heidi's words. Volterra was beautiful it was a nice location for the Volturi. This city was not very old but old enough. It was older than himself but he was not all that old. Not not compared to some such as the Romanians. They happen to be around much longer than Aro but soon they would fall. Aro smiled as he lead the way to the Volterra castle. It was still dark out Aro smell the humans and while his throat burned he ignored this thirst. Humans were still unaware of the vampires. Aro was careful he didn't want them to become to suspicious right now. There was far to much at stake for that. Aro didn't even glance at Heidi or speak as he walked within the castle and through several of the corridors she would follow as she was expected to. She was not a leader but she was apart of the coven. She follow Aro and do as he said as any of the other leaders. Aro made his way into a large room where Marucs and Caius set. "Brothers." Aro greeted a smile on his face.

Marcus was content, happy even. Marcus had spent the majority of the day with his beloved Didyme. Didyme was Marcus's entire life and he had fallen for her so easily. The first time he had seen her he knew she was special. He knew she was meant for him. And how overjoyed Marcus had been when she returned such feelings. How strongly he felt for Didyme. She was everything to him. He would do anything for her she merely had to ask and he would do. Of course he knew she felt the same way. Didyme loved Marucs as passionately as he loved her. There was no question on how much they loved each other. It was obvious by merely seeing the two together. Times when Marcus was away from Didyme were always diffiuclt. He always longed to be near her when he was not close by. But he knew he had to focus on other matters. He couldn't always solely focus on Didyme. Though that would have pleased him greatly to do so.

Marucs wanted power, yes, this was the reason he had joined Aro and Caius. They too wanted power. It was an agreeable goal. The Romanians had much power and this was something each of them wanted. They would take what the Romanians had and they would be in charge. How exciting that simple thought was. While Marcus had other matters that were much more important power too was important. Just simply not as much as Didyme. It was so easy to think about Didyme to long to go find her once more. To be close to her. To simply know she was close and he would not have to wonder what she was doing. For a thousand little questions about Didyme was in his thoughts anytime he was away from her. Marcus had other thoughts that concerned him. Aro for instances he had been gone for some time he wonder just how much longer he would take. Aro had wanted to leave and find talents. Marcus did not see the rush they should take their time and not be so hasty.

Marcus was in the main chamber of the castle along with Caius. Marcus's attention instantly went to Aro as he entered the room. It was easy to tell Aro was in a fairly good mood. What interested Marcus was the vampire with him. Marcus did not speak often but he would give his opinion when needed or question when he was interested. He was quiet interested. Had Aro found a talent? That would be most excellent. To have a new addition to their coven just as they had been discussing for so long. Their first step to gaining power. Now it was only a matter of time to again more talents. Soon they would have what was the Romanians. Marcus was certain to watch their bonds with each time he visit them. He knew who was loyal and who was not. Marcus's gift was of great use this he was quiet aware of. Even with these thoughts Marcus wonder what Didyme was doing. If she missed him as he missed her.

For once Heidi realised how lucky she had been to have this power. She knew there had been no way that Aro would have taken her under his wing. She would have never be given such an apportunity. She followed him into what he called home. The place where his family was. Then she knew she would have to prove herself to the rest of his family. Hopefully they would see she was worthy of them, that they could trust her the same way she was currently trusting them. Soon there was a smile on Aro’s face. And this was an honnest and try smile. Some people smiled only because it was asked of them but Aro was smiling simply because he wanted to smile. Because he knew that things were going to be great for him. He knew that eventually he would win over the Romanians. The question was simply how long this would take to get there. She listen to him carefully as he explained what he wanted to do. ‘’I think this is a good plan.’’ But if he was to ask her she would have to admit that she was not a fan of waiting and taking things slow. But she wa a follower here not a leader so she kept most of her thoughts to herself.

While Heidi was over whelmed with how Volterra looked, Aro was mostly used to it it seemed as he didn’t really have any reaction to the sights of such a place. He walked without a word into the castle. She did her best to follow him inside which was quite a task. She tried to remember each turn they were taking but soon enough she had lost count and hoped that once it was time for her to leave someone would be able to show her the way back out of the castle. Eventually they reached a large room. It was not a living room, it was simply a really large room with some chairs. Two other vampires were sitting there and Heidi figured they were Aro’s brothers. She waited to either be presented or spoken to before she was to speak. She wanted to show them she was polite and kind.

She could see them sizing her up. They probably had no idea that Aro was coming back with someone knew. How would they feel about having someone new around them. She didn’t want to speak to them yet so she simply did a small cursty to show them that she knew they were there.
