A lost treasure.

         “Sorry, did I not make myself clear enough? Well then let me say it again— I don’t give a SHIT.” 

A soft sigh escapes her lips as she listens to Emmeline. “ You are correct. Us being kept here is not fair, not to Caius, not to Sulpicia and certainly not to me. While I agree that everywhere is dangerous I have almost come to accept that I will be here, trapped.  ”

“Well....thats not..thats not fair! Come on, lets go, right now! We can go anywhere I’ve found, so long as we stay in the shadows....no one even knows who I am here. I do not know who Caius or Sulpicia is and therefore they certainly they dont know me. If you left with me for just a bit, you wouldn’t be trapped. We’d be back before they knew we left.”

Tl;dr- Send me the memes.

     He waved the guards back from her so she did not feel suffocated. Newborn or not, there was enough power filling the Volturi’s grand chamber that it was not necessary for a guard to be within an arm’s reach to keep her from causing trouble. He turned his filmy gaze to the young woman, his smile assuming a courteous glow, “Yet – nevermind what he said about speaking only when spoken to. I do not doubt dear Carlos meant well, but you are our guest – and a most welcome one, my friend! Tell me,” he glanced at the doorway behind her as if expecting someone to walk through it, “where is your creator? Surely you have not been abandoned, as young and as sweet as you are?”

She untensed a bit as the two black coats who were guarding her were called back. It made the whole thing less intimidating. “Thank you. I hate to intrude in your home but I did not come by my own will...” She said softly, glancing back towards the guard who was now at the doorway. “My creator?” Emmeline repeated before shaking her head, “I never knew them. I awoke alone.” Emmeline began sensing him, without thinking. He wouldn’t be happy with her explanation so, looking up to him she turned quickly. “I havent caused any trouble...there is no need for me to be here...what do I call you?”

She turns to Emmeline and pauses before attempting to explain why she could not leave. “ I am a prisoner in my own home, under the guise of it being for our safety, my sister and I are kept here. Our other sister died a long time ago and the affect it had on her husband was awful. We’re kept here so they never have to feel that pain. ”

A wistful and weighted sigh leaves her lips as she ponders the question Emmeline had posed.  She places her book on the couch next to her and stand up, walking over the window, remaining silent for awhile longer.  “ I suppose. Before I lived here I traveled the world for many years with my husband. I miss it but I cannot leave, even if I wanted to. I would likely never move, my family is here after all. ”

She nods once a smiles smiles on her lips. “ I hoped they would, they look good on you. You make keep them if you like, you need them more than I do.” She offers looking up from her lap and closing her book softly. Her eyes move to the window for a few seconds before moving back to Emmeline. “ It is not so great  after seeing the same view for hundreds of years.”

After she had left Emmeline she had gone back to her room and began cleaning up the small dirty footprints that the newborn had left behind. Normally something like this would bother her but for some reason which she couldn’t explain she wasn’t bothered by Emmeline’s unexpected visit. It was kind of nice to see a new face, have someone new to talk to. As Emmeline returned Athenodora was sitting near the window, reading. “Feel better?” She asks not looking up from her book.

    ❝Just don’t scare her – boys, maybe it is best if you sit.❞ Their height would be more than a little overwhelming to Emmeline, and Emmet ans Jasper only shrugged before sitting comfortably on the sofa. When Esme heard the small voice, she turned toward her. ❝Hello dear – oh! You look much better, and I’m glad the clothes fit well. These are some of the members of my family – Alice, Rosalie, Jasper, and Emmett,❞ she listed, indicating each person as she introduced them.

    “It’s nice to meet you all.” Emmeline greeted, nodding her head. Her eyes locked with Alice’s and for a moment she smiled. “Thank you for the cloths.” She said. Her body was tense because she hadn’t been around people like her yet. Especially not this many. A wave of calm seemed to hit her and she closed her eyes exhaling wondering where the out of place feeling was coming from. “Im not volatile.” She assured the three before looking the their mother. “Why are they staring at me?”

“S/He puts the pain to ease.”
