DISCLAIMER STANDS FOR THE WHOLE STORY. I AM NOT STEPHENIE MEYER AND DO NOT PRETEND TO BE. I AM JUST BORROWING SOME OF HER BRILLIANCE AND PUTTING MY OWN TWIST TO IT.

Hope you enjoy. Please remember to review.

I stood looking at the door. I tried to mentally prepare myself for what I was about to do; I did not want to be here doing this, I needed to do this though. I took another deep breath to try and calm myself and mentally checked I was still shielded before raising my fist and sharply knocked on the door.

Who could that be?

I can't hear anyone?

I didn't see anyone coming?

I could hear the family talking. I was pleased that despite my emotional state my shield was not failing; I was glad that I now had enhanced senses so that I could hear them talking. It boosted my confidence that I still had the upper hand at the moment with my visit still being a surprise to them all.

The door quickly opened and revealed my own personal demon.

"Bella?" To say he was shocked was probably an understatement.

"Edward." I nodded to him. "May I come in?"

"Of course love." I internally shuddered at the use of his term of endearment as he stepped aside to allow me entrance. Their new home was so similar to their Forks home it was slightly unnerving; although it did make it easier to navigate myself to the lounge. I made my way to the centre of the room and spoke very clearly knowing that no matter where in the house they were the whole family would hear me.

"Family meeting now!" Within seconds Edward's family stood before me. All of them wore the same shocked expression as Edward who was finally moving away from the front door. Alice recovered first.

"Oh Bella I have missed you so so much." She told me as she moved towards me to give me a hug; I took a couple of steps back so that I was back out of her reach. The heartbreaking look on her face would have made the old Bella feel guilty and allowed her to embrace me; things change, I changed.

I moved towards the chair slightly to my right and sat down facing the entire family.

"I know you all probably have questions for me, I will answer those for you eventually. For now though I would like to tell you all a little story so you may as well take a seat." They all wordlessly took various seats in the room. None of them took their eyes off me the entire time.

"Before I start I would like to ask that none of you interrupt me at any point. Once I have finished speaking all your questions will be answered. I am going to give you the short version of the tale to save time." I told them.

"After you all left Forks, left me, I was a wreck. I wasn't sleeping, eating, talking, washing myself and I barely moved from being curled up on my bed. Hell half the time I felt like I couldn't breathe. My mom and Phil came to Forks to stay for a while to help Charlie to care for me. The doctors told them I had suffered from a nervous breakdown." I paused as I heard gasps around the room. I refused to look up and acknowledge them for now; I kept my eyes studiously trained on the rug that adorned the hardwood floors. "I was so drugged up that half of the time I had no clue what was going on around me; I couldn't even remember my own name. You'd think things couldn't get worst. You'd be wrong. Victoria returned to Forks." I paused again as I waited for the growling in the room to subside. Once all was quiet again I continued; still never looking up. "She wanted revenge for James' death. I already have been told you're aware of the werewolves at LaPush; it shouldn't surprise you that they were already hunting her since a few of her discarded meals were found. Sadly they did not pick up on her trail leading to my house until it was too late. She killed Phil, Renee and Charlie. She was just about to kill me when the wolves arrived. I was immediately taken to LaPush to be protected. However after a certain revelation I was only allowed to stay there temporarily. It was agreed that the wolves would track you down as long as I left LaPush as soon as they did. I am here for one reason only. The reason you can not sense me in anyway or form; whether it be with your standard vampire senses, or your extra ones is because I am shielding myself." I removed my shield and everyone tensed immediately. There were three heartbeats heard in the room. "I need you to protect the two babies growing inside me. I need you to protect Edward's babies."

I finally lifted my head to look at them; I never knew vampires could go into shock. All seven of them were staring open mouthed at my stomach. I self consciously placed my hands on my slightly protruding stomach.
