A Different End

Alice and Jasper didn't return with Nahuel.

"I must make the deciding vote, it seems," Aro mused.

"The child does not seem dangerous right now, but there is simply no way to predict what is coming. The unknown is hazardous to our way of life." He smiled at Edward and I in a friendly way on the surface. Underneath, I could see his ploy to take out the Cullens once and for all. I growled at him ferociously- it ripped from my throat without warning and was the most bone chilling sound I had ever heard. He continued, "My vote is that we destroy the danger here.

Edward stiffened at his words. "I love you. Now and forever." He whispered in my ear. I nodded.

"I know," I said in a broken voice. He hugged me close, then let me go. I retreated almost to the edge of the meadow. Zafrina came to stand in front of me as planned. She was to protect me. As long as she held, I couldn't be harmed.

Kate, Emmett, Benjamin, Edward, Jasper, and Tanya made up the front line. The wolves stood behind them. The other vampires who stayed to fight were behind them. Renesmee and Jacob stayed perfectly still, watching Aro. He looked peaceful, as if he wasn't about to destroy a lifestyle. "Attack," he said calmly, and Caius's face spread into a huge smile. The Volturi guard started forward.

Suddenly, Demetri sprung flying towards Edward. Edward saw his intent and jumped at the same time. They landed, crouched, on the ground and began to battle. I felt sick watching Edward fight. I could lose my reason for existence.

The battle began.

All at once, the guard came forward, meeting our side halfway. I was struggling to shield the right people, and I knew it could be fatal if I slipped. Zafrina was locked in battle with Jane. I knew Jane wanted to be the one to take me down, but before she could even glance my direction, Kate tackled her from the side. Jane started howling in agony, and Kate smiled.

I looked around me. Caius, Aro, and Marcus were standing on the opposite side of the meadow, looking perfectly serene. My vision became tinged with red, and I wanted to rip Aro's throat out for bringing this upon us. Anything to get that smug smile off his face.

Edward seemed to be winning against Demetri, but I couldn't be sure. Kate clearly had the upper hand in her battle. Vladimir and Alec seemed on equal footing, while Garrett seemed to be losing against Heidi.

I looked at the werewolves. Sam, Quil, and Paul had already taken one down, but I couldn't tell who it was. Embry seemed to be having success, he already had Chelsea's arm. She howled in rage and Embry turned to give me a wolfy grin.

I looked for Jacob in the midst of the action, but then remembered my job for him. He was slowly backing towards the trees, Renesmee holding tightly onto him. She looked at me, and I could see she was crying. I mouthed, "More than my own life" at her and she blew me a kiss. Then my best man carried her off into the darkness of the trees.
