I kept Nessie tight in my arms as I approached Aro and Edward.
"Jacob? Emmett" I asked quietly. Emmett, because he would be dying to go. Jacob, because he wouldn't be able to bear being left behind. Both of them nodded, and Emmett had a sly grin pasted on his dimpled face. The stepped up with me. The sound of on of Aros guards growls made me hold Renesmee tighter. Jacobs teeth were bared as we reached the point where Carlisle and Edward were stood. Aro bent forward menacingly.
"Hello little one.." He he smiled deviously.
I took one step back.
Edward stood closer to me and snarled.
"Don't speak to her.." He hissed. I felt Renesmees body shift and Aros gaze move to her body. Renesmee snuggled into my hair and I heard her wine slightly. She was only a child. How could these people be so cruel and twisted.
"This is the girl you saw?" Aro asked coldly to Tanya, who flinched at the sound of his voice.
"Yes." She replied, staring at my Renesmee.
"Aro, we-" Carlisles soft voice was interupted by a stern one.
"We're not here for excuses old man!" Jane snapped, stepping closer. A growl escaped from Emmett and Edwards chest.
I spun rond whn I heard a low grunt come from Rosalie. She bent down on the floor clutching her stomach.
"Rose?" Emmett said, running up to her. She moaned and shifted around in pain. Emmett put his arm around her and started panicking.
"Carlisle!" He yelled, trying to help his pained wife.
"Aro! There is no need for violence!" Carlisle snarled to him. Jane was doing this. Causing the illusion of pain to my sister-in-law. Alice and Jasper ran over to them, while the wolves and other clans enclosed the space behind us.
"Stop this!" Edward yelled to Jane.
She shifted her staring view to Alice.
Alice fell to the ground and gasped frantically. I stood in shock and held Renesmee so tight, I was surprised she could still breathe.
"Alice!!" Jasper cried, mocing to her side and supping her face.
I spun around and looked at my two sisters shaking and jerking on the ground.
"Please! Let them go!" I screamed. A dirty smile pasted across Janes face. Edward and Carlisle stepped and hissing.
"Give us the girl." Aro demanded to Edward.
"Never." Edward hissed back. He pounced forward and onto Aro. Jacob went for Jane, and Carlisle leaped onto Caius. I heard the deafening sound of the wolves paws hitting the ground. The rips and tears of skin. But worst of all, the cries of my baby in my arms.
I kept my eye on Edwards body, thrashing around with Aros as I ran backwards as wolves ran forward. I didn't want this. I moved my shield to me and Renesmee. I was too scared, to panicky to push it forward. I didn't have the strength. I felt a medium sized grey wolf, run in front of me. Leah. She crouched down in front of me and growled whenever someone came near us. My breaths turned into pants as I saw my family, wolves and all, fighting with the Volturi.
Rosalie and Alice were clutching part of their body where pain illusion hit them. Emmett and Jasper were eagerly trying to control their wives and sooth their pain.
I wanted to go over and help. Go and fight. But I wanted to protect my baby.
"Edward!! No!!" I screamed. Everything was a blur, consisting of my family and friends in a deadly fight.. no war. I saw Edward pin Aro up against a large tree, making it crack and bend. They hissed at each other. Both gripping onto the others shoulders.
Then I heard it. The bite. My husbands cry. My familys gasps.
I saw him grunt and groan as he fell to the ground. Everyone froze and looked as Edward lay on the grass.
"Edward.." My voice crackled as I set Renesmee down by a tree, Leah walked over and covered her with her fur. I ran over there at full speed and bent down on my knees. A clear, deep bite mark covered his neck. His once frozen blood now covered the ground and my hands. I wanted to cry, but my tearless eyes just stared down at my slowly dieing husband. His hands clasped around mine and pulled them to his beatless heart.
"My son.." Esme croaked, barely loud enough for my ears to hear. I heard the shuffle of someone go over and wrap their arms around my shivering mother-in-law. Most likely Rosalie. "Bella" I heard Carlisle sigh quietly. I snapped.
"Dont just stand there!! Do something!!" I screamed, not taking my eyes off my dieing husband. Dieing. He would be gone. A world without him, just as I had feared. I heard a wolf whine. Seth. My babys cries were muffled and quiet from Leahs protective stance. Jacob moved closed to me and Edward, stopping a few feet in front of us. He bent his large head down, as a sign of respect I guess, and whined too. The rest of the wolves gathered around him. Sam and Embry next to him, the rest behind. Most bent their heads down also, some lay on the grass and whined.
"Bella.." Carlisle said again, slightly louder, slightly softer. I shook my head.
"Help him!! How can you just-- Somebody please-- Edward stay with--" I screeched, unable get the right words out.
"Shh" Edwards gurgling voice whispered. My lips were parted as I watched my husband lay gasping softly, as more blood ran from his neck. "Stay alive.." He croaked. I shook my head violently.
"No.. Not without you.." I answered shakily.
"For me.. and.. R-Renesmee.." He finished. He was right. I had a duty. A promise. A love. For my daughter and fading husband. "I will always love you." He breathed.
"I love you too Edward.. With all my heart.." I replied. This was it. His last goodbye.
And with that his head slowly lent back on the grass and his eyes looked up at the clear sky. My head collapsed on his head and I screamed, a tearless shriek.
