They came in rigid formation. The outer members wore gray, and the colors darkened to black in the center. Aro stepped forwards with his guard following close behind.
"Welcome," Carlisle said.
"Carlisle. What is this army you've gathered?"
"Not an army, merely witnesses like you've brought." He gestured to the vampires standing behind the guard.
"And the wolves?"
"Are here because they value the lives of humans."
"Let's get to the matter at hand," Cauis said impatiently. "Where is the informer? Come."
Irina slowly stepped forwards slowly.
"Is that the immortal child you saw?"
She looked at Renesmee and me. "I…I think so."
"Think? Is it or isn't it?"
"She's grown."
Cauis hissed. "What?"
"Careful, brother," Aro warned. "Let us find out what has happened here before acting. Irina? Show me what you mean."
Irina held out her hand hesitantly.
After a second, Aro pulled away. "Yes, the child has grown." We could all see the anger he tried so hard to hide.
"See?" Carlisle asked. "She is not an immortal child."
"Edward, come. I want to here from him since the child is on his mate's back. I assume this broken law has to do with you?"
"No laws have been broken," Edward said. "You can clearly see that."
"Edward, come," he commanded again.
I held back a hiss. It was no wonder he wanted Edward; he would have all of our thoughts if he did. I looked at Cauis who still had his eyes locked on the wolves, especially Jacob who was next to me.
"It's okay," Edward murmured. "I'll be fine."
Siobhan was still rubbing her temples. Would she really go that far to humor Carlisle?
"Edward?" Aro asked, slightly impatient. "Can you come?"
"Be careful," I whispered.
He just nodded and stepped forwards, holding his hand out. I kept my shield around him, protecting him from Jane and Alec, but I realized I shouldn't keep Aro from hearing him. I reluctantly pulled back and waited until he needed me.
