JOIN THE VOLTURI: WE HAVE COOKIES.

"What the hell is that?" Heidi stared up at the sign in disbelief. This was the third one she'd found since setting out that morning. They'd been placed all over the city, mostly over man holes leading into the castle, though she had just found one directly over the front door entrance. The posters were rather large, Bristol board sized, and each had the same saying on them, with a painted picture of three men in black robes, surrounded by people in lighter grey ones. They were all eating cookies.

"I don't know," Came Demetri's voice behind her. Heidi turned to find both Demetri and Alec standing there, just as confused as she was. "They're all over the city. We took them down." He reached over Heidi's head and ripped the poster down, rolling it up and shoving it into Alec's already overflowing arms.

"Who do you think did it?" Alec asked, peering over the top of numerous posters.

There was a moments silence, before all three spoke at the same time.

"Aro."

Heidi sighed, her burgundy eyes rolling towards the sky.

"We'd better go and tell Caius." She said.

Demetri and Alec nodded in agreement.

"He did what?!"

Caius stared at the posters laid out before him. Marcus was peering over his shoulder, as bored as ever.

"They were all over the city, Master." Demetri explained.

"This one was over the front entrance!" Heidi held up a poster similar to all the rest. The only difference was the text at the bottom: APPLY HERE.

As Caius continued to stare, open mouthed, Aro skipped into the throne room. As he spotted the posters, his face fell, and became angry.

"Why'd you take them down?" He demanded.

"Why'd you put them up?" Caius snarled, equally angry.

"For recruitment. Duh." Aro stuck his nose in the air, and turned away from Caius.

"Recruitment."

"Yes."

"How many?"

"Over three hundred. I want lots of new guards, especially one who can burp the alphabet."

Heidi glanced up.

"But, Master, if you change them... they won't be able to-"

"Don't do it." Warned Alec out of the corner of his mouth.

"Aro, leave. Heidi, Demetri, Alec? Take the others and hunt down those posters..."

Aro began to object, but Caius cut him off.

"Marcus..?"

Marcus looked up, about to say there was no way he was helping clean up Aro's mess.

"Lock the storage room. Aro isn't allowed to have any more Bristol board... burn it, if you have to!"

There was a pause.

"Get rid of the cookies, too."

Upstairs, Jane flinched as she heard Aro's wail of discontent.

"So," Muttered Sulpicia quietly. "They found his cookie stash, then."
