Miracle (COMPLETED)

Blackmail

READ THIS AUTHORS NOTE. OR YOU WONT HAVE A CLUE WHATS GOING ON.

Right, when planning out what to happen in my story, the idea of Carlisle using information that he had gathered from when he lived with the Volturi came to mind. I don't think it was used THAT much in the book, so I thought I'd use it to let Carlisle save the day. I didn't know what to do though, but like a good little girl I did my homework and I landed on Stephenie Meyer's website. I was looking through the Breaking Dawn FAQ, and stumbled across this question.

What happened to Marcus's wife?This was the answer Stephenie Meyer gave.

Once upon a time, a fairly young vampire (he had only been a vampire for a decade and a half) named Aro changed his young sister Didyme, who had just reached adulthood, into a vampire in order to add her to his growing coven. Aro always wanted power, and because he himself had a potent mind-reading gift, he hoped his biological sister would also be gifted in a way that would help him rise in the vampire world. It turned out that Didyme did have a gift; she carried with her an aura of happiness that affected everyone who came near her. Though it wasn't exactly what he had hoped for, Aro pondered the best ways he could use this gift. Meanwhile, Aro's most trusted partner, Marcus, fell in love with Didyme. This was not unusual; given the way she made people feel, lots of people fell in love with Didyme. The difference was that this time, Didyme fell in love herself. The two of them were tremendously happy. So happy, in fact that, after a while, they no longer cared that much about Aro's plans for domination. After a few centuries, Didyme and Marcus discussed going their own way. Of course, Aro was well aware of their intentions. He was not happy about it, but he pretended to give his blessing. Then he waited for an opportunity to act, and when he knew he would never be found out, he murdered his sister. After all, Marcus's gift was much more useful to him than hers had been. This is not to say that Aro did not truly love his sister; it's just that a key part of his personality is the ability to destroy even what he loves in order to further his ambitions. Marcus never found out that Aro was responsible for Didyme's death. He became an empty man. Aro used Chelsea's gift to keep Marcus loyal to the Volturi, though not even Chelsea's gift could make Marcus show any enthusiasm for it.

(^^ I DO NOT OWN THE ABOVE. IT IS AN EXTRACT FROM STEPHENIE MEYERS WEBSITE. ALL BELONGS TO HER!)So, I decided to use it. The only differences I've added are first, there is no year mentioned, so I'll be making that up. And second, Carlisle isn't mentioned. I don't think he was with them at that time, but in my story he was. You see -in my head- Carlisle saw the whole thing, he knows everything that happened. Marcus doesn't know what happened and Aro doesn't know that Carlisle knows. Understand the name of the chapter title now? :0)

Anyway, I know longer want to bore you with that authors note. It was just necessary. Hope you like the chapter.CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: BLACKMAIL.CPOVWhen Aro spoke those words; I knew I had to act. I knew the one way to stop him from committing a murder to someone who did not deserve to be killed.

TWILIGHT BELONGS TO STEPHENIE MEYER.

"Aro, I did not wish for it to come to this" I spoke as he turned from smirking at my son to look at me.

"If you wish to fight, go ahead. You will only die" He taunted me, turning back to Edward

"I do not wish to fight, I was thinking more along the lines of blackmail"

He looked up and met my eyes

"Blackmail, what ever do you mean?" He asked

"Aro, I'm taking about what you did in the year of 1792" I saw his face freeze. He suspected that I knew, but only suspected.

"What are you talking about, what did I supposedly do" he sneered at me.

I walked over to him -he was glaring me the whole time- and outstretched my hand, he hesitated for a moment before taking it into his.
