None of these characters are mine... I'm not going to follow scenes word for word though cause let's face it... if you're reading this you should know the major scenes. They follow close; I'll just put in the important parts.

Hearts Past

Six months ago

Bella stood in Carlisle's office quietly as the doctor explained his history with the Volturi. He stood from his desk then motioned to the picture of three men and Carlisle themself standing on what looked like a ledge high above the people. Her eyes took in the details of the picture carefully.

Carefully watching her, Carlisle explained, "They're names are Aro, Caius and..."

"Marcus," Bella interrupted with her fingers tracing over Marcus's image. She felt like she was almost in a dream, shaking her head before turning back to Edward with a smile, linking her arm with his.

Now

Bella could see the clock tower in the distance, running towards it as fast as she could. When Alice had showed up telling her what Edward had planned she thought he was crazy. Everyone thought they were mates, but she couldn't figure out how he could leave her like that... how he could feel no pain walking away from her. Up until that moment they were happy and so was everyone else around them. People always seemed so happy around her.

Catching a glimpse of Edward across the courtyard, Bella jumped through the fountain and slammed into him, barely moving him. His hard body felt like she had hit a brick wall.

"Move, Edward, get into the shade," she pushed at him with all her might.

"I'm in heaven. They did it so fast. I never felt a thing." Edward whispered into her hair.

Bella just banged on his chest, catching him off guard as he fell back through the doorway behind him, "You have to move. I'm alive, you idiot. You're alive."

Finally comprehending the situation, Edward pulled her up against him tightly, kissing her passionately. His arms loosened just a bit then he backed up at the sound of a door opening.

"I won't be needing your services after all, gentlemen," Edward spoke to the two men. One man was extremely tall and built like Hercules, the other slim, but deadly looking as a knife in the hand. Both of the men had ruby eyes.

The slim vampire looked over the couple carefully, smiling as he spoke, "Aro wishes to speak with you again."

"Fine. Bella, why don't you go and enjoy the rest of the festival," he took her hand, trying to turn her to the door, but she wasn't ready to leave him to these two.

"The girl comes with us," the huge one said.

Edward's arm tightened around her, "No. You can go to hell."

The sound of metal breaking behind them made them all turn to see Alice coming though the locked door to their side. She took the scarf off, turning her head slightly as she spoke, "Come on guys, you wouldn't want to cause a scene now, would you?"

"You wouldn't." The big guy told her.

A young girl with long blond hair and Mary Janes came through the same opening the other two did, "Enough."

Edward bowed his head slightly, "Jane."

"Aro sent me to see what was taking so long."

Edward looked at Jane, then Bella, following after the trio as they went back down to the door they came from. Alice placed her hand on Bella's back as the two large men slowed to follow behind them.

"Just do as she says."

The pathway they followed went downwards at first into the pitch darkness. Bella tripped several times, but was always saved by either Alice or Edward before she fell far. The twists and turns made her dizzy until they got to a solid gold looking elevator door. Once inside, Bella smothered a giggle as she heard the classical music. Jane turned back to look at her, but said nothing except to take a moment to breathe in the girl. She smirked at Edward's growl then faced forward again.

They exited the elevator, walking down a long hallway that had paintings on one side and one way glass on the other. Bella smiled as the vampires around her all had that slight sparkle that the Cullen's always hid, distracted by it. The girl stopped when she saw one of the paintings on the opposite wall. The painting was very similar to the one in Carlisle's office, but there were subtle differences in this one. Each of their faces showed happiness instead of contempt and for some reason that made her smile. Like in the office, Bella was again drawn to Marcus's face. She stopped for a moment before the huge man behind her urged her on.

The last painting in the hall was of Marcus, a beautiful black haired woman and Aro all linked in arms. In the picture they were all smiling and that made her smile. Again she was drawn into the painting.

"Move along, human," the deadly looking one pushed at her, earning a growl from Edward.

Hiding her face in Edward's jacket, Bella did what she could to not blush. "I don't know what's wrong with me. This place..." She felt in a daze, like she had been here before. The thought made her happy for some reason.

The group then came to a set of golden double doors just after they passed a human receptionist. Inside the room was huge with a domed ceiling and pillars around the circle of the room. A table sat to her right with several chairs and directly in front of her were three men sitting on large decorated thrones.

"Sister. I send you out to get one and you bring back two... and a half. Such a clever girl." A boy the same age as Jane walks forward, taking her hand as Jane came to stand beside him.

Aro happily came forward speaking to Edward and taking his hand, but Bella couldn't hear a word he said since she still felt like she was in a daze. She understood that Aro could read every thought Edward ever had with a touch and could almost see the emotion cross his face as he read him. He asked for her hand as well, which she gave him silently, but at their slight touch Bella pulled back and growled at Aro, shocking herself.

From behind Bella, she could feel the hands of the tall slender guard on her back, holding her to Aro and one of his hands gripped the back of her neck. Edward tried to interfere but the huge one held him back. Alice only stood there sadly, clearly having foreseen what will happen.

"Now, shall we try that again, Isabella?" Aro dragged out her name, forcibly taking her hand. He concentrated for a few minutes, then let go of her hand as if it were on fire.

"I see nothing. How... strange. What to do with you?" Aro looked to Edward and Alice then sighed. "Jane?"

The little girl stepped forward, smiling at the struggling Edward as her eyes focused on the human behind her, "This may hurt a little." Her smirk faltered though after a moment when Bella only stood there in Demetri's grasp.

"Intriguing... if only you meant to turn her..." he turned away from her, sitting back on his throne.

Marcus lifted his head slightly, not bothering to even look at the group in front of him. "You know what you will do, Aro, be done with it."

Bella's eyes shot to Marcus, her eyes unfocusing the moment she saw the red in his eyes... she shook in the arms of her captor as if she knew what was coming next.

"Felix," Aro's voice was just above a whisper.

Demetri spun Bella about, tossing her towards Felix, who turned her towards everyone, pulling her head aside prepared to strike.

"Fratello! Prego! Non farmi questo! Che cosa ho fatto?" Bella shouted at Aro, stopping Felix from his fatal strike.

With a wave of Aro's hand, Felix dropped Bella, who fell to her knees, muttering over and over, " Come hai potuto fare questo a me, il mio corvo?"

Alice tried to touch Bella's shoulder, but the human pulled away screaming, afraid to be near any vampire right now. Bella wrapped her arms around her legs and began to rocks slowly, trying to calm her nerves. It was a move Aro had seen many times over the years from so many doomed humans, but this time, it reminded him of only one person.

"Didyme?"
