As soon as I got through the door I was bombarded by 3 of my brothers all asking me questions at the same time. I had to scream at the top of my lungs to silence them before saying "Okay now, one at a time please!".

First to speak was Caden "Sorry B, its just we were having a little discussion and these two idiots wont admit that I'm right and they're wrong and everyone else in the house is either ignoring us or refusing to take sides to its up to you to settle this arguement once and for all" he said with a nod after pointing either side of him to show that our two brothers were the "idiots" he was referring to.

I groaned in annoyance and went to sit on one of the white sofa's in my favourite living room. It was always like this with the three of them, they'd have an arguement and then I'd have to end it because no one else would. I love my family, but one things for sure they definately know how to annoy the hell out of me. I sighed and gave in. "Fine! what is the arguement about this time?" the arguements they had really were about the dumbest things. This time it was Nick who spoke, he said each word carefully and clearly as if it was extremely important that I didnt misundestand the question, which made me have to supress the urge to laugh as he said "Okay B... We need you to tell us, who would win in a fight to the death." I rolled my eyes, not this again. He ignored me and continued "Spiderman, Superman or Batman" and that was it... I was rolling around on the couch laughing with tears in my eyes, if I were still human I'm pretty sure my sides would be in agony by now. My three brothers just stood there looking at me not sure whether to be amused at my reaction or insulted that I wasnt taking this seriously. Amusement seemed to win and soon they were laughing too and our laughter seemed to attract the rest of our family downstairs too. Once we managed to stop laughing. I turned to Zach, Caden and Nick and said simply "Superman" before turning to the everyone else.

The whole family sat for about an hour just talking, well, Zach and Nick just glared at me, while Caden sat there looking smug. I looked around the room at each of the faces of my family, I may have only known them three years but it feels like forever, and I know they all love me as much as I love them. Our family is quite random and chaotic and our house is rarely quiet, but that keeps life interesting. All of us are very different and thats what makes us work.

Zach was turned when he was 17, but he is actually 53. He doesnt remember much about his past or how he was changed, he only had his vampire memories and knew his name was Zach. He makes me laugh, he gave himself the nickname "Spiderman" because of his power, it is kinda cool. He can sort of defy gravity, not flying really but he could walk up the wall and across the roof if he wanted too. He's almost never serious, the only thing he loves more than laughing is making other people laugh, even if its at his expence.

Caden and Nick were brothers before they were turned aswell, they look similar but they couldnt have more different personalities. Caden loves to play pranks on people, even I have to admit they usually are incredibly funny, but aside from that he is a really sweet guy, he'll always be willing to listen when someone he cares about is upset, even if the advice he gives usually involves some major prank against whoever cause the upset in the first place, he was turned when he was 16 but he is actually 36. Nick is different he takes everything seriously, but not in a bad way, its really kinda cute. He still knows how to have fun though, when he relaxes a bit, he was turned when he was 18 at the same time as Caden, so technically he's 38. Caden and Nick dont have powers exactly, just some of their human traits became more dominant.

My two other brothers, Adam and Joshua are the oldest out of all of my siblings (in vampire years of course). Adam was only 11 years old when he was turned into a vampire, but he's been a vampire for 132 years, he must have been very good at getting his own way as a human, because his vampire power is persuasion. He can make almost anyone do what he wants if he uses his power, only it doesnt work as well on vampires as it does humans... he doesnt like to use it unless he has to, he says its no fun getting your own way if you dont work for it, but thats just the way he is. Josh is physically 19 but he has been a vampire for 125 years. He has the power to multiply his strength, but like Adam he doesnt like to use it unless he has to.

Laurent and Victoria act as "the parents" of our bizarre family when need be, but really we all think of them more as our siblings. They are together now. Vicky realised after saving me, and changing me that James never really loved her, that he was using her, when she realised this her and Laurent got together. I think of them now as my friends, my brother and sister. Its hard to believe I once feared them knowing them the way I do now. They dont really have powers, more like skills. Vicky is very evasive, its really hard to catch and Laurent, well... he's kinda like a cat, he'll always land on his feet, no matter how bad a situation is he can make it work to his advantage.

And then we have my sisters; Amelia (who will kill you if you call her anything other than Mia once told thats what she prefers), Jade and Evelyne. Amelia was only 10 when she was changed, I found her in Italy when I first joined my coven and saved her from the vampire who changed her. He really was the definition of monster. She thinks she's been a vampire for about 7 years but she's not sure. Her power would put Alice to shame, she can see the past and the future and her visions are alot more accurate than Alice's, but the further into the future she looks the less accurate her visions could be.

Jade was changed by Caden when she was 17. They've been together ever sinse, which is almost 26 years now, they've only been married once. They said they only needed to say the vows once and mean them and thats enough for them. Jade doesn't have a power but she's really caring and compassionate, she reminds me of Esme, thats probably why I liked her as soon as I met her.

Evelyne was bitten by a new born vampire when she was 18, she would have died but Josh saved her and stayed with her while she changed. Like Caden and Jade they've been together ever sinse, but in the 60 years they've been together they must have been married at least 25 times. She is a bit like Rosalie, only unlike Rosalie, she actually likes me... She's very beautiful, and she knows it and isnt afraid to flaunt it, but beyond that she really is very sweet and caring, if you hurt someone she cares about she wouldnt hesitate to kill you.

My favourite two members of my family are my two best friends, they've both been in Italy for 2 months doing some work for the rest of our coven. I miss them like crazy. Travis and Christopher were both changed by me about a month after I became a vampire, I changed them to save them and because they asked me to. Travis was 20 when he was changed and he can block the powers of other vampires, Chris was 19 when I changed him and he has the power to see peoples pasts. The three of us are inseperable, well... when we're on the same continent. Our minds are linked somehow, one of my powers is that I can talk to people using my mind and they can reply using theirs, but with Travis and Chris its like we can have a 3-way conversation and they can talk to eachother using their thoughts too.

The last member of our family, is the most important person in my existence. Lilyana. I found her like I found Mia, in Italy. Only Lily had just been bitten, she was only a few months old at the time. How anyone could try and kill an innocent baby I'll never know, its beyond monstrous. I gained a new power the day I found her. My favourite power. The power to heal. As I was holding her while she was changing my hands started glowing and after a minute she stopped screaming. Her heart was still beating. She was alive. I decided to keep her, I fell in love with her the second she opened her little green eyes. Lily is 4 now and she's not like other children, I saved her life but I couldnt save her from the effect the venom already had on her. She's a half vampire, she has the best vampire traits like the speed, enhanced senses, and even the power of telekineses, but she also still has all her human traits too. Lily is treated like a princess by our entire coven, they all love her and would go to hell and back for her without a moments hesitations.

"Hellooo! Earth to Bella!" I was pulled out of my thoughts to find Evelyne waving her hands infront of my eye's trying to snap me out of my trance. "Sorry" I mumbled. She just laughed and asked "What were you thinking about, you had such a goofy smile on your face". I have a permanent blush on my cheeks from when I was changed but I'm pretty sure that I would have turned redder than a tomatoe as she said that because my entire family, with the exception of Travis, Chis and Lily were all staring at me with amused smiles on their faces. Just as I was about to answer someone knocked on the door... well, actually it sounded more like 4 or 5 very impatient someones banging on the door. Which really annoyed me. I stormed over to the door and pulled it open ready to yell at whoever it was about the persistent knocking but when I saw who it was I lost the ability to form a coherent sentence...

I just stood there staring at the eight vampires staring back at me, I barely noticed my family had walked up behind me until once again Jade snapped me back to my senses by tugging my arm and asked "B, do you know these vampires?" I nodded slowly without taking my eyes off of them and said "Everyone... these, these are the Cullens" my family had a mixed reaction to these words, some growled, some gasped, while others were frantically asking if I was okay with their thoughts. It wasnt until Caden asked in my mind which one was Edward and could he kick his ass that I stopped staring and turned to grin at Caden shaking my head.

All at once the Cullen siblings minus Rosalie and the blonde one from earlier, started talking all at once in desperate voices, I only caught parts of what they were saying, words like "Alice", "vision" and "Volturi", Carlisle hushed his family and started to explain "Bella, what they were trying to tell you was that, Alice had a vision... She saw the Volturi coming here and 2 of their guard attack you, we wanted to warn-" he stopped talking when he saw the huge grin forming on my face and instead asked "Bella, why are you smiling? dont you know who the Volturi are? do you have any idea what they're capable of" with that my grin widened and my family were all laughing.

I turned away from the Cullens walking back to the living room and shouted over my shoulder "You better come in..." I shook my head at their confused thoughts smiling and after a few seconds they followed to were my family and I were sitting.

Once they all sat down I was beaming at my family, they were all just as happy as I was at the little visit we would be recieving soon and were just as amused at the Cullens reaction. I was the first to speak, I turned my head to Alice asking "Would you mind showing me your vision?" she looked confused so I explained "Just think of the vision and I'll be able to see it through your thoughts". Once she did as I asked I held out my hand and a projection of Alice's vision was playing like a movie so that I could let my family see. When the vision was over I looked around the room, the Cullens were once again, completely shocked by my powers, while my family were smiling happily.

Evelyne and Josh said at the exact same time "Its about time!" then looked at eachother in horror, which cause me and my family to start laughing. Then Edward spoke sounding angry and frustrated "I do not see what is funny about this situation at all! The most dangerous family of vampires is about to show up here and 2 of them will attack Bella and you're all laughing?" this only cause my family to look at eachother and laugh even more, making Edward growl in frustration. I tried to calm myself and said between laughs "Okay... well... I think maybe I should explain a few things". That seemed to calm the Cullens slightly and all the eyes in the room turned to me, and everyone was silent except for the occassional relapse of laughter from Caden and Zach.

I took a deep breath out of habbit before I began "The reason we all find this so funny is because, the 2 vampires that will attack me" I had to stifle a giggle at the last part "well, they arent trying to kill me or hurt me, they're my best friends... they've been in Italy doing some work for the larger part of our coven for about two months now." the Cullens relaxed just a little and I decided to let them digest this information before moving on, Jasper and Edward spoke at the same time Jasper asking curiously "Wait! did you just say the larger part of your coven? there is more of you" while Edward sounded annoyed when he said "That still doesnt explain why you would laugh at the fact the Volturi are coming here!" I sighed and continued my explaination.

"Yes Jasper, there is more of use, alot more and Edward I remember you being alot smarter and more perceptive than this, the Volturi IS the larger part of our coven, I am a member of the Volturi and have been for the past 3 years, the Volturi is my family... I decided I wanted to live in Forks for a few more years before moving to Volterra permanantly, and they-" I pointed to my family "- they wanted to come with me..."

There was silence for a few minutes while the Cullens tried to take in the most recent information and me and my family waited patiently. I smiled at the thoughts running through there head in the silence...

Emmett - My little sister is one of the Volturi? cool! wait... no... thats not good...

Carlisle - I didnt think Bella would join a coven of vampires that drink from humans, I hope she doesn't

Esme - I'm just happy to have Bella back, it doesnt matter to me...

Edward - How the hell could this have happened! How could she join them! it wasnt supposed to be like this!

Zach - B, you sure do know how to silence a room dont you...

Caden - Okay, I'll need some explosives, some nails, and... oh crap! she's listening!

"Caden Hope! whatever it is you're planning to do with those explosives and nails you better stop planning right now! or I swear I will make you grow boobs and leave them there for a week! do you understand" I yelled at his thought, the Cullens all looked between me and my brother confused while the rest of my family just rolled there eyes and smirked, they were used to my reaction to catching Caden plotting one of his pranks. Caden looked horrified at my threat then mumbled "Fine... no explosives, no nails, no planning. Sorry" while his mind was moaning at me "way to spoil my fun".

Emmett was the surprisingly the first one to recover from the shock of my little outburst and asked "Bella, did you just say you would make him grow boobs?" and that set off my familys laughter again I just nodded. Edward just glared at Emmett and said "I hardly think out of everything that has been said in the past few minutes that, the fact Bella has the ability to make a man grow boobs is the most important piece of infromation!"

This time Carlisle spoke again "Bella, would you mind if we asked you a few questions about how all of this happened?" I nodded before saying "But I think its best to wait til the rest of my coven is here, there are some things that Aro, Caius and Marcus will explain better than I can" he nodded his head and then I continued "Mia said they'll be here in a little under half and hour so while we wait how about we introduce ourselves properly" I turned to my family and said "Okay, just give us your name, age, vampire age and power if you have one... we dont need have time for life stories or well... death stories" they all nodded and Jade started us off my families introductions continued for about 10 minutes and then I turned to Carlisle who introduced his family to mine, I didnt pay much attention seeing as I already knew them all, then I remembered I still didnt know the newest addition to the Cullen family... I turned to see her scowling at me, I just raised my eyebrows and said "Do you want me to burn off your hair to match your eyebrowns?" again, my family were on in hysterics with laughter, the Cullens probably think the amount of times we've been rolling around with uncontrollable laughter is strange, but thats just the way me and my family were, and it was fun... I looked at the Cullens to find Rosalie smirking at my threat and Jasper and Alice finding it hard to conceal their amusement too, while Emmett like my family, was in stitches and he choked out "Bella... you... her... eyebrows... LEGEND!" I grinned at him, I really missed Emmett. I waited til my family... and Emmett, had calmed down again before turning to Carlisle and saying "I'm sorry I forgot about her, I wasnt paying attention to the introductions cause I figured I already knew everyone... so who is she?" Esme smiled kindly at me, I had the urge to run up and hug her but that urge was interrupted by Carlisle's answer to my question "Bella, this is Lucy... there was an incident a few months ago and she was changed, she's been with us sinse then." my only response was "Oh" I didnt wanna ask about the "incident" he was refferring to, because I could tell he didnt want to get into it, besides... I can hear the cars coming up the driveway.

I turned to my family with the biggest smile on my face and said "They're here".
