A/N; Okay, I know that I've never written any other fics really aside from Fairy Tail, but I couldn't help myself! I tried incorporating Twilight into a Fairy Tail fic and it turned out horribly so... I wrote- and am still in the process of writing- this. Please, have mercy as I'm still trying to grow as a writer and this was literally written today. I have the first chapter complete as well and will be posting that right after as kind of my way of pushing myself to complete a fic for once.
Now, I hate the idea of Bella and Edward's relationship being a thing because it's literally a class-A abusive relationship with a master manipulator so don't expect them to be together long. In fact, don't expect that at all. I will be featuring some of my OC's, the main one being a Nephalem {child of an angel} that I originally made for a Fate/Stay Night fic that I never followed through with. You'll catch her name later, so I won't spoil the surprise, but she's one of my favorites as well as her companions Amelia and Seraphina. Anyways! Be sure to tell me what you think and enjoy the prologue!

The sun hung high in the sky, blocked out by a smattering of clouds that rarely ceased their chance to obscure the rays of light from reaching the earth. A stream babbled in the distance, birds happily chirped- although, they wisely kept their distance from the paved road that dead-ended at a large house. It was here, with a shocked gasp and a shriek of surprise, that the serenity was broken and a new age would begin.
The group of unnaturally beautiful people crowded around the pixielike woman and the girl next to her, concern showing on all of their features. The pixie was called Alice and it was not an uncommon occurrence for her to gasp as a vision, brought on by her 'gift', took hold of her mind. She had the pale, alabaster skin that the others around her all shared, her eyes a brilliant gold, and hair that was short and dark, spiking wildly in a fashionable way.
The other girl, Bella, was slightly darker in complexion to her companions. Eyes, a dark chocolate, were expressive and shone now with uncertainty at what her friend had seen. Her hair was long, a beautiful auburn that fell to her mid-back and waved slightly. She was slightly taller than Alice, but not by much and it was certain she would age well and would hold her beauty far into the distant future.
"Alice?" Jasper questioned, putting his hands tentatively on her shoulder. When she looked up into his eyes, he could see the devastation and… was that regret?
"We… We won't be able to stop it," Alice admitted on a trembling sob, though no tears would leave her eyes. "She's coming. For Bella."
At this admission, all hell broke loose as those around them burst into motion, unable to sit still as fear plagued their minds at the fact they knew that there was nothing that they could do. This future was very obviously certain as was made apparent at the fear in their Seer's tone and a tall male with windswept brunet hair and fear in his eyes held the confused Bella as if to shield her from this grim and uncertain future.
"I don't understand," Bella rasped, trying to make sense of the situation. "I thought that Victoria was dead?"
"It's not her," Carlisle, obviously the oldest and wisest of those gathered, stated from his seat on the chaise lounge, his head in his hands as he ran through the possibilities of such a visit.
"Then, who?"
"Her," Alice whimpered, turning to bury her face into Jasper's arms as he rubbed circular motions on her back.
"Can't we just run like we did last time?" Bella asked, clearly not understanding what they all seemed afraid of, she'd never seen her semi-adopted family acting this way and, to say that it was unnerving, would be an understatement.
Bella knew these people well, had taken the time to get to know each and every one of them over the past two years since she'd met Edward. Through all of the heartache and trouble she'd experienced, the Cullens had become the light of her life, even seeming to overshadow the relationship between her and her own parents. She'd long ago accepted that they weren't human and was sure of her decision to spent the rest of eternity with these people who were not people, though she still obviously needed to convince Edward of this fact as he was controlling by nature and seemed to have no plans to allow such an event to happen.
What she couldn't understand, was why they all seemed to be terrified. Carlisle looked defeated, Alice was devastated, Emmett was shaking with fear as he held a stunned Rosalie, Esme curled into her husband and mate on the lounge, her head hung low. The only two who seemed to show any other source of emotion than some aspect of fear were Jasper and Edward- the former seeming indifferent while the latter appeared to be quaking with anger.
"There's no running from her," Jasper stated on behalf of the whole family after a long moment of prolonged silence. "We simply need to wait until she decides to make her presence known."
In a castle nestled within the walls of Volterra, Italy, a man with alabaster skin ran wildly towards a pair of double doors that were decorated with ornate gold carvings. He stopped and took a moment to steady himself, fear pouring out of every cell in his undead body at the prospect of having to be the one to inform the Masters of this horrific news. If he'd only been a little faster in the draw…
Demetri heaved a heavy sigh, deciding that it was best to simply be done with this as he heaved open the doors and strode into the large throne room. He stopped in the center of a large sun on the ground and bowed deeply, his hand and arm stretched across his waist as he did so. Waiting silently, he pondered whether or not he would survive the next few moments and prayed to any God that might be listening that he would.
"Rise, Demetri," Aro stated with amusement in his girlish voice- a word no one would ever use in his presence for fear of their tongues being ripped from their mouths and held captive for an indeterminate amount of time. "What has you rushing to see us today, hm?"
"Masters, I-"
"Step forth," The oldest of the three brothers stated, cutting off the babbling of their head guard. He held out his hand expectantly and Demetri knew better than to keep his master waiting as he stepped forward and placed his palm tentatively into the dark haired immortal's. "Oh," Aro said as his gaze seemed to drift off into the distance. He snapped back into reality as a frown formed on his face, "This is most unpleasant."
"What is it, brother?" The blond to his left questioned, narrowing his eyes at the thought of more unsavory news that could be brought to them.
"It appears that she is going to be taking the Cullen matter into her own hands," Was the reply that had the other two Kings frowning to mirror their brother.
"But she hasn't been interested in her own race's affairs for a long time," Marcus, the tallest of the three claimed.
"It seems that the Swan girl has piqued her interest," Aro said a bit more calmly, though he was extremely unnerved by this information. "Demetri, increase the guard count in America, go there yourself, if you have to."
"Forgive me," Started one of the two people standing off to the side of the room as Demetri rushed out. Her blonde hair was evident beneath her hood and blood red eyes sparkled with curiosity as she looked over the three Kings' faces. "Why do you have fear, Master? Alec and I are more than capable of handling any whom dare to come close to the castle."
Aro spared the blond a withering glance that softened slightly on a sigh, "If she has been drawn to the girl, it can only mean that disaster is soon to befall us all."
"Who is this 'she' that you keep speaking of?" She questioned, not completely understanding.
Jane prided herself in knowing exactly whom each and every one of her kind were, she held information on their whereabouts and kept tabs on any whom were newly reborn, never had she imagined that she would hear of one whom instilled such fear into the three Kings' faces the way this mysterious woman had… who was she? At the revelation from Aro as he answered, Jane's eyes went wide and she, too, began to question what the future for their race would hold as it seemed that there would be nothing left if the King's word was to be believed.
If there was a God above, she prayed that he would help them all.
