Felix stopped applying pressure and stood up. Simultaneously, Alec also stopped using his ability. Simon felt his senses returning back to him, he winced in pain and then used some of the blood and sent it to his limbs which started to make cracking sounds and went into their proper position.
Simon stood up and looked towards Aro. Aro was looking back at Simon with anticipation.
"Simon my dear. I hope you understand why I had to take such a measure and it doesn't end up as a mark in the beautiful bond that is between us."
Simon nodded with an expressionless face.
"I understand, I did say that caution is never bad. So I understand that this was the best choice for Volturi."
Aro's smile widened at this and he happily nodded.
"Indeed it seems you understand very well. I patiently await the great things you would do for Volturi."
Simon just nodded and went out. He got out of the Volturi castle and ran towards the nearest forest.
Once he was in the deepest parts of Berignone where he couldn't feel the presence of anything other than a few animals, his face turned from expressionless to an ugly face due to anger.
"Fucking piece of shit."
He punched the tree as a loud boom resounded in the woods.
"All I wanted was a freaking comfortable life but no you just had to go and make things difficult for me."
He kicked another tree uprooting it sending it flying away.
Saying that Simon was not happy with the development was an understatement, he was royally pissed at what had transpired. If not for his ability he would've become another puppet of the Volturi who thinks of Aro as God.
While being held by Felix he had felt a probe in his mind. Simon was no stranger to such mind probes after all he had spent alot of time with Jasper and had even used his ability willing to make himself better.
He immediately realized that Aro was going to use Chelsea to deepen his loyalty towards him while weakening his other relations. He had studied the biology of the human body in detail when he was improving his ability, he also kept up with the newest discoveries inorder to have every chance of improving his ability.
He had read about the human brain, how different parts of brain were responsible for different things.
He had never tried to mess with his brain before as head was an important part to live even for vampires. But this time he had no choice it was either take risk that could potentially cripple him or become a puppet. For Simon it was a no brainer, he had already gotten used to risking his life that once more didn't even matter. He knew he to do what it takes to protect his brain.
He gathered what little blood he had in his body and set it towards his head. He cut off his limbic system, he had taken a gamble either it would heal with his vampire healing or he would become completely emotionless.
As soon as he cut it off he no longer felt any love or any anger for anyone. He felt that he should just kill everyone here, everyone that came in his way should just disappear, he felt numb. The brotherly bond he had with Jasper and Peter, gone, the cheerfulness he felt when he listened to Alice talking about Japser, forgotten and the love he had for Jane, he smell, the feel of her skin, her soft voice that always sent him into an oblivion of love, gone.
What Chelsea had affected was the part of brain that he had separated. After he felt the probe gone he had destroyed that part and started to use his blood in a way that would facilitate it regenerating.
When Alec stopped using his ability he felt an excruciating assault his head which was the reason he winced but he felt his feelings slowly returning back to him that symbolized that the part he had destroyed was currently being recovered. He reined in the desire of massacre and acted as Aro wanted him to act.
Simon was venting his anger of the trees and rocks that he could find near him. He felt humiliated that he had to lose everything the he considered as treasure for some time.
"You made your decision Aro now I'm going to make mine. Don't regret it as I'm going to take away everything that you have ever considered to be precious."
