"This isn't our fight."

"I have a daughter I need to watch out for. I won't endanger my little girl."

"There has to be another way other than going to war."

"Strategically this is a bad idea. They out number us by a vast number and even if we called in every favor owed to us it still would not be enough."

"She must be so scared."

"What is she to us? What has she ever done for us?"

"Cool maybe we will actually get to fight this time last time was such a letdown and I was pumped up for a fight and everything."

"Leah isn't our responsibility anymore."

"We have to think of everyone. Is the loss of one worth the potential loss of even more?"

Vladmir was about ready to explode with anger as he listened to everyone gathered at the Cullen's talking about the current situation with Leah. He couldn't believe the way they were acting. It was no wonder why the she-wolf hated it here so much and why she had turned bitter and mean. He had no doubt he would behave the same way if he'd been in her position. Finally he could take it no more and let out a loud growl which shut everyone up almost instantly as they all turned to look at him. Good now he had their attention.

"I cannot believe what I am hearing." Again a growl rumbled up from somewhere deep in his chest. "You all stand here questioning as to why you should fight to get Leah back. This is the same girl who was willing to lay down her life for the half vampire without question. She hates almost all of you and yet she was willing to die for you if she had to and you can't do the same for her? The way I see it is you owe her this at the very least. After everything is has been through the least you can do is this. You think facing the Volturi is a frightening thought? Well that is nothing compared to what the two remaining Romanians can and will do if something happens to Leah and I would to be someone who did not try to save her."

"The packs will fight." Jake stated as he stepped forward after shooting a glance at Nessie. "At least my pack with fight I can't say the same for Sam's. Leah is my pack sister and it is our fault the Volturi even know about her in the first place."

"We will join you." Benjamin stated for himself and Tia. They had only arrived a couple hours earlier and Amun had decided he would not be joining them this time around. "Every creature living or dead has a right to live their lives the way they want and they have the right to be free while doing so. I do not know the female shape shifter that well, but I will fight with you to ensure her freedom."

"We owe the Volturi pain for what they did to our sister." Kate stated from her spot next to Tanya and Garrett. It was obvious that they were thinking about their sister Irina who had lost her life at the hands of Caius.

Garrett smirked and slung his arm over Kate's shoulder. "Where she goes I am sure to follow."

Alice and Jasper stepped forward which surprised some of the Cullen's since usually Jasper would never do anything that could put Alice at risk if he could help it. "She is family to Jacob Black and Jacob is family to us and we fight to protect our family."

Carlisle and Esme stepped forward which made Rosalie and Emmett do the same. Edward seemed torn as he looked at his wife who shook her head no and even though Bella did not agree he stepped forward with the rest of his family. "It is the right thing to do."

"It's a suicide mission!" Bella yelled trying to hold Nessie back when her daughter wanted to join the others. "If we go to Italy we will surely die. Now Leah and I are not friends and I am sorry she was taken, but she knew what she was getting in to when she went to Romania. She knew there was a chance that one day Aro would want revenge. I have a daughter I need to think about."

"I want to help." Nessie stated as she finally broke out of her mother's grasp and went to stand next to Jacob. "She was willing to fight for me so I want to do the same mom. I'm sorry if you don't agree, but I am old enough to make my own choices."

Bella let out a deep sigh as she reluctantly joined the others. "I won't let my family fight alone, but I have to ask why you even care Vladmir?"

"I care because I-" He paused and looked at Stefan before back at the others. "I care because she is worth fighting for and because I love her."

Everyone was surprised to hear those words leave his mouth. Nobody had ever figured the Romanians to be capable of love and hearing him admit it knocked them through a loop. Some of the others nodded letting him know they would be willing to fight as well. Zafrina reached out to take Seth's hand. She had never really said it out loud, but she cared about the young male shifter. If he was going to face the Volturi he wouldn't be going alone.

"It is settled then." Stefan spoke breaking the sudden silence. "We will gather as many as we can and then we are going to war. I have been waiting 1500 years for this day to come."

"Start getting in touch with as many people as you can. I have someone I need to call." Vladmir stated as he headed in to the other room to make the call. Silently he begged whatever god may exist that Leah survive until they could get to her. He needed to tell her how he felt and he would be damned before he lost another woman he loved to the Italian scum.

TBC…
