Okay people So I didn't like where this story was originally going. So I made some tweaks to chapter one which will stay the same for the most part but the rest of the story is pretty much changing. You will see some familiar parts here and there but I thought everything was getting out of hand and moving too fast. I hope you like the new version of this story. So please Review, Review, Review I am happy to except any ideas on what you think should happen and I will try to put it in or put part of it in.

Are You My Knight in Shining Armor?


Some sweet 16

"Now announcing his majesty King Phillip and her majesty Queen Renée!" The ballroom doors opened and my parents went threw. My older brother Emmett came running down the hall. He was late. Again.

"Sorry Bellsie, can you fix my tie?"

"Yeah Emmy" I said as I quickly fixed his tie. Meanwhile my little sister Alice was trying to hold off their announcement. "Done" Emmett was wearing a black suit with a dark blue tie. Alice was wearing a lavender layered strapless ballgown, my ballgown was a lot like Alice's only midnight blue.

"Thanks Bells" Emmett quickly took Alice's hand.

"Now announcing his royal highness crowned prince, Prince Emmett and her royal highness Princess Alice." Next went my brother and sister, I was the only one left in the dark hallway. The dim light in the room made my midnight blue dress sparkle.

"You look beautiful tonight Un Giovane" I quickly turned around and there standing in the doorway on the opposite side of the hall was my Grandfather Aro.

"Grandfather! What are you doing here?" My grandfather has been spending a lot of time in Italy lately after passing the throne off to my father.

"Why wouldn't I be here for my granddaughter's 'sweet' 16th ball?"

"I don't know grandfather, but I'm so glad you're here"

"Now may I escort the prettiest young lady into the ballroom for her party?" awww isn't my grandfather the sweetest?

"Yes you may."

"Now it's my pleasure to announce tonight's birthday girl, her royal highness Princess Isabella and his late majesty Aro Volturi!" There was a loud applause when Grandfather and I walked into the Ballroom. As I walked by people, on my way to my parents, people bowed and curtsied while wishing me a happy birthday. When I got to my Mother and Father I curtsied. Mother got up and gave me a hug "how do you like it darling?" I looked around the Ballroom; everyone in Greece must be here or watching my party on the television. This was not my sort of thing, Alice would like this sort of party more than I would, but I should put on a good face anyway.

"I love it Mother, thank you Father." I hugged both my parents and went out into the crowd. I didn't want to be treated like royalty tonight; I wanted to be treated like a normal child, but I didn't have a choice. Father said I must wear my tiara, which pretty much ended the discussion. I looked around the crowded ballroom; Emmett was surrounded by a bunch of gorgeous girls, while Alice was surrounded by quite a few hot guys. Everyone always liked my siblings, me on the other hand have always kept to myself.

Randomly a huge man came and stood next to me. When I say huge, I mean HUGE! The man was bigger than Emmett and that's saying a lot. I was about to go see Alice, who was waving me over and frankly I was scared of Ultra Scary Man. My nickname for him because how was I supposed to find out his name? Before I could take one step Ultra Scary Man took out a gun and stuck it to my back. "I wouldn't go anywhere if I were you Princess." I sucked in a beep breath. "Now how about we go pay a visit to your parents." He walked me threw the crowd with the gun still pressed against my back. I saw my mother and I tried not to cry. Then I looked around and saw Emmett. We locked eyes and he knew something was wrong. I saw him say something to a girl he was talking to, and then he went and grabbed a very disappointed looking Alice. I watched him say something to her, then she looked very worried. After that they came walking toward Ultra Scary Man and I. That's when he saw the gun and started yelling at people to move.

"What is going on here?" Father yelled at Emmett while standing up.

"He's got a gun!" Emmett yelled back. That's when Ultra Scary Man pulled me closer to him and put the gun to my head. People started screaming and cowering to the other side of the room.

"Enough, now Sir let go of my Daughter and we can have a rational conversation." I was praying that maybe he would actually do what Father says and let me go.

"Why would I let her go? As long as I have her I get whatever I want." So much for that.

"We will give you whatever you want as long as you let her go unharmed." Mom was begging now. Father looked like he was trying to stay calm but wasn't succeeding, Alice was crying, and Emmett looked murderous. Then all of a sudden 5 more men with guns came and surrounded my family. I decided to give them my own personal names; first there was Ultra Scary Man, then Dangerous Guy With Gun, Huge Mean Man, Super Scary Mean Man, Loser That Thinks He's Cool With A Gun, and Stalkerish Looking Creeper Man.

"What is the meaning of all this? Luke let go of Isabella and the rest of you put your guns away NOW!" Grandfather walked in the room and took total authority. Wait was that a smirk on his face?

"But Sir?" Yup definitely a smirk.

"I SAID NOW!" Grandfather roared but it still looked like he had a smile on his face. Reluctantly Ultra Scary Man by the name of Luke let go of me and put his gun away; as did the other men. Emmett ran up to me and wrapped me in one of his giant teddy bear hugs. Suddenly all of our guards surrounded them and put all 6 men in handcuffs.

"This is not the end of it; I will find you. All 3 of you!" That last comment scared me. Alice and I cowered into Emmett while the guards pulled Luke and the others out of the room. Everyone else left as soon as they had the chance, it was like a stampede.

"I'm so sorry about this, he was my head guard and I asked him to make this a night Isabella would remember." No kidding, I so want to remember this birthday. This was just the best birthday EVER (cough, cough) not!

"There are no excuses for this, he could have killed us all!" Emmett looked like he was about to blow a gasket and murder somebody. I couldn't stand all the tension in the room anymore.

"Alice, Emmett how about we go to my room, so our parents can talk to grandfather privately."

An hour later Alice and I were done taking our showers. We were sitting on my bed debating American bands, while Alice brushed my hair. Alice may be my sister but we never fought. She was more of my best friend. We would talk about everything. The only times we disagree is when she insists on playing 'Bella Barbie'. We didn't get out of the castle often; so we only had each other and Emmett. The only time we ever really see anyone is at those birthday parties and banquets. Alice's rambling brought me back to my senses. "Boys Like Girls is sooo better than Relient K!" She got finished brushing my hair and was looking at one of my CD's. She has always been a Boys Like Girls fan, where in this particular conversation I like Relient K.

"That's what you think Ali but nothing can beat 'So Obvious' by Runner Runner."

"I know what you mean, that song is amazing. How about the new song 'Paradise' by Coldplay?" She got me there that is a great song; I love it.

"That's a good one too. How about-." Then I was interrupted by Emmett, who was standing outside my door.

"You girls might as well quit debating now because I'm going to win with 'Gives You Hell' by the All American Rejects. Oh and knock, knock." We decided to go along with his jokes by saying….

"Who's there?" Alice and I said in unison

"Emmy…."

"Emmy who?"

"You better have the couch open because Emmy's got Pillows!" Emmett stampeded threw my door, using his blanket as a knapsack, dumping all his pillows onto the couch.

"Geez Emmy got enough pillows?" I asked him teasingly.

"Why you asking me? You girls are going to be sleeping on them, while I get your bed Bellsie." He also said teasingly.

"You wish" I rolled my eyes

"Yeah I do" he said sarcastically, "No but I call the long couch, so I want it to be comfy." We get in these little sarcastic teasing fights all the time; so we all know we're never serious. Well except for the him staying on the couch thing, he was serious about that.

"Why are you staying in here Emmy?" Alice asked

"Because I'm the older brother and I say so…. and I'm not going to let the two of you out of my sight. So get comfy because we're in for a rough night." Boy he was not lying about that. All night guards came in and out along with our servants. Finally I drifted off into a restless sleep.

I woke up around 7, after only getting at the most 4 hours of sleep. There was a little card sitting on my bedside table. I picked it up and looked around the room; Alice was curled up on my smaller couch hugging her favorite fashion magazines like they were teddy bears. Then I looked to my other couch. The one Emmett fell asleep on. Emmett wasn't there. I looked down at the card in my hands and opened it so I could read it.

Bellsie,

I woke up early but didn't want to wake you. Mother and Father wanted to speak with me. If you wake up and get this before I get back and you need ANYTHING come down to the throne room.

Love you little sis,

Emmy

That was just like him; if I ever got hurt or something and he had to go somewhere other than where I was, he would leave me a little note or something. I wanted to go see what they were talking about. So I quietly got out of bed and went into my closet. Alice must have sensed that I was getting dressed because she walked right in to help me pick out an outfit. "I am perfectly capable of getting dressed Alice!"

"I know that. It just gives me an excuse to play my favorite game 'Bella Barbie'!" stupid evil pixie.

"Alice I am the older sister and you do as I say." I said this with a stern expression.

"Dear sweet Bella, you are only ten months older than me, so don't talk to me like I'm five fucking years old. Plus you don't have the perfect sneaking clothes, which you don't know what they look like. So you will be obviously needing my assistance and I want to know what's going on too." She has a point

"Fine, What do I have to wear?"

"Trust me you will look great!" She quickly started throwing stuff at me. I put on a pair of light blue jean capris, a navy blue tank top, and my gray Colts soccer hoodie. "Now for the shoes…" She opened the door to the shoe part of my closet and threw a pair of black converse at me. "Put those on, you wont make a sound." Alice walked out of the closet and came back with an earring box. "Here put this on I want to be able to here and see everything." She had me put in a pair of sapphire studs and a sapphire necklace.

"What is this Alice?"

"What, you think you're the only one with connections? I told you I want to know what's going on." She went over to my laptop and typed in a code and a picture of my room appeared on the screen. She put my hair in a ponytail and I went on my way.

I made my way down to the Throne room completely unseen by staying in the shadows. I was right outside the door when Emmett said, "Mother it's completely unfair. We don't even know him. THEY don't even know him. I'm the only one that knows father isn't our birth father."

"Emmett surely you understand that this is for the safety of you and your sisters?"

"Mother I understand but just have us go to Washington and knock on his door saying, 'Hi Charles, you probably don't remember us but we're your royal kids'-."

"That's ENOUGH you will NOT speak to your mother that way. Now you and your sisters WILLmove to Washington, you will live with Charles, and you will be going to Forks High School like normal American teenagers, you and your sisters will also be going by the last name Swan."

"But that's HIS last name-."

"That is my final word on the matter. Now go tell your sisters to start packing."

"Yes Sir" I heard Emmett's footsteps coming towards the door. I couldn't breathe; we can't be leaving Greece, we just cant. Emmett came out of the room and gave me a sad look before saying, "How much did you hear?"

"Enough to know that some guy named Charles is our Father. You, me, and Ali are moving to Washington and using the last name Swan, oh and we're going to Forks High School."

"So you're up to date; let's go break the news to Ali" With that we went back to my room and started packing.

Any translations will always be at the end. It will show what it said and what language it is. Unless it is the greek translations that will be in the story. I find that any other way just makes this story look Choppy and i dont like that. Hope you enjoy.
