Chapter 11: Consequences
So Mind Shield is kind of like Bella's power. Except I can't project it to others. Before I could continue down my current path of thought. Aero spoke.
"Give me your hand," he said in a soft voice.
Turning to face him I saw his outstretched hand and smiling face.
"This little sack of shit just tried to force my will and make me his little puppet," I thought.
I felt rage boil up inside me. I tried to push it down but the more I pushed it down the more it grew. Without thinking I moved.
Blurring in front of Aro I grabbed him by the neck picking him up and off the floor. Squeezing until cracks began to appear.
The shock of what I just did was clear to see on his face.
" Are you stupid?" I asked, moving my face close to Aros.
Marcus and Caius stood from their thrones ready to attack me when I spoke.
"Either of you or you," I say to Marcus and Caius then turn to the lady behind me.
" move and I will crush his neck then the rest of you."
They froze not wanting Aro's death
"I came here to help you end the Romanian coven. Not to become your puppet or join you." I say squeezing Aro's neck a little harder.
"I do not appreciate you trying to force me to become one of you."
" I am much older than any of you by thousands of years. And I will not be forced or manipulated into your collection."
"and if you fuck with me I will rip all of you apart," I say in a cold voice while looking right into Aro's eyes.
I could see the fear in his eyes and I knew I got the message across.
Adding a little more flair to my performance I threw Aro right into his throne. Breaking it into chunks.
Turning to the female behind me I say still in a cold voice.
"and if you try that again I'll bury you alive to slowly go insane from a lack of blood."
Looking back at the three leaders I say
"I will return every few years and when it's time I will fight with the Volturi to get rid of the Romanian coven. And if you even look in my direction the wrong way I will end the Volturi before it even gets started."
Of course, I was lying my ass off hoping that they wouldn't push me and attack. But thankfully they just stood frozen. I knew when they got stronger they would more than likely want revenge but when that happens I will be ready.
Once standing Aro looked at me and dusted the rock dust from his clothes.
Still, with a nervous look, Aro said.
"very well."
I Turned around to walk out of the massive doors when Aro spoke.
"What is your name"
Turning to him I said.
" Adam ," Then walked out of the room without looking back.

Volturi POV
Once Adam was gone, Caius turned to Aro and said.
"How was that possible? I could hear his beating heart. He's just a human but has abilities that can kill a vampire."
"I don't know. when he grabbed my neck I wasn't able to get any information from him. And Chelsea wasn't able to affect his loyalties and bring him to the Volturi."
"He must have shielding abilities," Marcus said while looking down at the destroyed throne.
" What will we do about this Aro?" Caius asked, sitting back down in his throne.
"We will wait and play nice. And Once the time is right he can either join us or we will crush him under our might."
"Good," Caius said with an evil smile, leaning back into his throne.

For the next few hundred years I traveled watching the world grow.
Every few years I would check in with the Volturi but they were still looking for vampires with strong abilities before starting the war with the Romanians.
So while they did that I went back to China and continued my studies of martial arts. In the past few hundred years China has grown exponentially in population leading to more and bigger wars and as a by-product more fighting styles.
As I was traveling through China I passed a small blacksmith hut. Realizing that I had yet to learn smithing.I bought it from the old man who owned it before me. I paid him extra to teach me for a few years before he left to retire.
I was so caught up in learning fighting styles and other things over the years I completely looked right over something that could help me make a weapon for when I fought the Romanian coven.
I ended up making something akin to a godly weapon in my eyes. Taking me over three hundred freakin years to make.
Of course, I didn't just make a sword for three hundred years straight, I took breaks and did other swords or weapons, learning new things as I built them and taking what I learned to help me make my sword. I also traveled back west every few decades to see if the Volturi were ready yet but of course, they were either too busy with political issues or still looking for vampires with special abilities.
The sword I made was medium-sized and had the look of the Roman gladius. The only difference is it was thicker than a regular blade. I folded the metal over 40 times. Giving me millions of layers of metal in the sword. It gave the blade a Damascus look and was as hard as titanium.
A katana blade is only folded ten to twenty times. Making them incredibly hard and durable. And I just doubled it using my insane strength to hammer and mold the blade.
I had to restart hundreds of times but that's blacksmithing for you one mistake and you could ruin it.
I also went through a few hundred hammers in the process.
After making the blade I tested it by cutting whole trees down in one blow. and then finding out that boulders fared the same as the trees did.
To say I was excited would be an understatement. Finally, I have a blade that can do some damage to vampires.
Once done testing my blade on trees and big rocks I decided to put it to the real test.
Against a vampire.
So I headed west to Romania.
—-----
Year-440 BC
Once in the lands of the Romanian coven, it wasn't hard to find a vampire. They walked in the open letting people see them sparkle. Unafraid that anything can kill or wound them.
In a small village just inside their lands, I saw a shorter male vampire with short black hair and bright crimson eyes. His skin sparkled in the sun for all to see.
I wore a brown cloak covering my head with the hood looking like a monk. The long cloak also hid my already drawn sword. Allowing me to get right up next to him and attack.
Acting fast I swung the sword.
With a loud boom. My sword hit his neck. Sparks flew as my blade chopped into the vampire.
The vampire never even knew that he died.
All this happened in less than a second. Most people in the street didn't even see me cut his head off. All they saw was the vampire's head fall off.
_______
Now that I had a usable weapon against vampires all I could do now was wait. SoIi did
Building a small house in what will become Spain, I started farming. Growing crops and having a few cows for meat. I lived a normal life for a while. And just relaxed thinking of what will happen when the main characters start to appear.
