Ch 1

Based in New moon, starting in chapter 19, after they land in Florence, Italy.

Bella's POV

As Alice and I were getting off of the plane, she suddenly stiffened by my side. Her eyes started to acquire that filmed over quality they get whenever she sees something. I was getting worried. What was Edward planning?

"Alice?" I said tentatively. "What's wrong? What did you see?"

She looked up at me, her expression dumbstruck. "The Volturi have made another decision." She told me, a pained look crossing her face. "They're hunting down Edward. They're going to use Chelsea on him."

I was confused. "Who's Chelsea?" I asked.

Alice glanced at me. "There's no time now, we really have to hurry now. I'll explain on the way.

I was starting to get worried. Just what had happened? "How quickly can we get from Florence to Volterra?" I asked anxiously.

Alice glanced at me. "That depends on how fast you drive. Oh, and Bella?"

"What?" I asked suspiciously.

She eyed me considerately. "How strongly do you oppose grand theft auto?"

Alice's POV

There was no time to even think. The colors of the vision swirled in front of me. I had been monitoring the Volturi closely, and it was a good thing I had. If I had not been, I would have missed it, and it would have been too late for Edward.

The Volturi have a new member of their guard. They played at being peaceful, but I should have known by now that they would do anything, anything to get what they wanted. Bella and I had to get to Volterra, fast. There was no time to lose.

There was also a very high chance that we wouldn't make it.

No, I can't think about that. I have to stay positive.

"Alice?" a single, unsure voice broke through my reverie. "What's wrong? What did you see?"

I looked up at her, not surprised by the alarmed expression on her face. I felt the same way. "The Volturi have made another decision." I told her. "They're hunting down Edward. They're going to use Chelsea on him."

Her face twisted into an expression of confusion. "Who's Chelsea?"

I took a glance at the Volturi's future again and said hastily, "There's no time now, we really have to hurry now. I'll explain on the way."

Bella started to look seriously worried now. "How quickly can we get from Florence to Volterra?" she asked anxiously.

I glanced at her. "That depends on how fast you drive," I told her, trying to see how she would react to the next question I would ask her. "Oh, and Bella?" I added.

She looked at me suspiciously. "What?" she inquired.

"How strongly do you oppose grand theft auto?"

Bella's POV

A bright yellow Porsche squealed to a stop a few feet from where I had been pacing feverishly, the word turbo scrawled in silver cursive lettering across its back. Everyone on the crowded airport sidewalk beside me stared.

"Hurry, Bella!" Alice yelled impatiently through her open window. "We're running out of time!"

I hastily jumped inside. The windows where tinted so dark that the interior seemed like nighttime.

"Jeez, Alice." I groaned. "Could you have picked a more conspicuous car to steal?"

As I fumbled with my seat belt, Alice answered.

"You should be glad I could find such a fast car. I got lucky."

I sighed. I guess Alice would be Alice.

As the countryside whizzed by, I suddenly remembered the question that had been troubling me at the airport.

"Alice, who's Chelsea? Why are the Volturi going to use her on Edward?"

Alice suddenly looked grim. "Chelsea is a new addition to the Volturi guard. She has the power to undo or strengthen the loyalties, meaning she can make people betray others. The Volturi are going to recruit Edward into their guard by force."

A/N - This story actually came from a dream I had. I dimly remembered a member of the Volturi guard who could change loyalty ties. When I was rereading New Moon for the twentieth time, I remembered that dream and I though, "Huh. What if the loyalty-changing vampire had been there in New Moon?" (I swear, that's what I was thinking word for word. I'm the kind of idiot who can't remember non-major character names, even of Twilight, of which I am obsesed (It's my new "thing").)

Most stories come from dreams. If you have a dream, no matter how crazy, write it down, or write down as much as you remember. That way, you can look at them later and maybe figure out a good story from it. It's okay to have stories based on crazy dreams you've had. Even Twilight is based on a dream Stephenie Meyer had. Some of my other stories are based on dreams too.

(And that concludes my "wise" advice on how to write.)

Oh, and you should read Angela Weber and the Half Vampire of Hogwarts :E, story ID 4538575 by Spazzfreeks. It's a really good Angela-is-a-witch fanfic. E's not going to update 'til Christmas though, because in her story, they're on Holiday Break or something. I got the news straight from the source, so it's probably reliable unless she suddenly changes her mind.

(Yes, I know I talk a lot)

Please R&R, by the way. You don't know just how much your reviews help support and motivate me. Plus, since there are no flames yet, I know that this other friend of mine hasn't reviewed yet.

(Yes, I'm actually done now.)

Oh! And please check out some of my other fanfics. I really want to know what you think. I don't say that just to get reviews. It's okay if you give constructive criticism, you know. I won't get offended and not update if you help point out a mistake I make. It would actually make me feel good, as I would then know that people actually do read my stories carefully, but don't randomly make up imaginary mistakes that aren't there. That would be pointless, and I'd have to spend time trying to figure out what you were talking about before realizing it was made up instead of writing the next chapter(s). I post right after I write a chapter, and I write a chapter right after I get an idea, so you get the new chapters immediately.

I know some of my plots can get a bit confusing at times.

If you've read some of my other stories, you know that I tend to write short chapters and hold you in suspense a lot. I've worked on it (the short chapter part, not the suspense part. That's staying).

If you've stuck with me through this entire A/N, good for you! You're actually getting "vital" information.

And now, I actually am going to stop before my A/N gets longer than my chapter. (If it isn't already)
