Chapter 4: Questions and Answers
RPOV
"Is it true?" I asked again. He stared straight ahead into the ocean. He finally looked at me and answered "Yes." It was barely a whisper.
"Will you tell me? How, I mean…" I asked. He shook his head and I felt rejected. He noticed and looked at me, sorrow in his deep, brown eyes. "We have to get back… I'll tell you another time. We have some questions to answer." He stressed the we and I felt a little better. I took his hand and we walked back to the beach.
When we got back, all eyes were on us. I blushed lightly and Jake and I took our place in front of the new wolves.
"Does anyone have anyone have any questions now that you've heard the legends?" He asked. Alexandra was the first one to speak.
"Who is that, and who are they?" She asked, first looking at me then at my family.
"This is Renesmee, and those are her parents and grandparents. They're the Cullen's."
"So are you…" she started, looking at my parents. My dad finished for her, having read her thoughts.
"Vampires? Yes, though we don't drink the blood of humans. Only animals. And Renesmee is a half-vampire. She was conceived by her mother, Bella her, when she was human. Bella was changed afterwards."
"Oh…well, why are you guys here?"
"Renesmee is Jacob's imprint. And he wanted the new wolves to meet us, get our scent, so if our paths cross in the forest, you won't attack."
We went on through the night, answering any questions they had. I was starting to get sleepy when my dad's phone startled me. He answered it and walked into the forest with a worried expression.

I looked at the caller ID on my phone. Alice. I answered and walked into the forest, not wanting the rest to hear.
"Hello?" I said.
"Edward, someone's coming." She said hurriedly.
"Alice calm down. Tell me who you see."
"I don't know, all I see is a Vultori cape. And Edward…"
"What Alice?!" I roared. Bella heard me and came running.
"What's wrong Edward?" She asked. I didn't answer her though. I was too shocked by Alice's answer.
"Edward, he's carrying a baby girl."
"When do we have to be there?"
"Um… about two hours. But I would suggest heading over now, it could be sooner. The vision is fuzzy… I think the girl is a half-breed."
"Okay Alice. We'll be there in about 10 minutes."
"Okay Edward, hurry. I don't like this. I love you."
"I love you too Alice. Don't worry."
I looked to Bella then.
"Edward…" she started. I stopped her by closing the distanced and silencing her with a kiss. She pulled away gasping for air.
"Come on," I said. "We have to go." And with that we ran back to the fire.
When we got there, Renesmee was fast asleep on Jacob's lap. I ran over to him.
"Jacob, we need to go." He heard the urgency in my voice and looked to dismiss the wolves while I woke up Renesmee.
"Sweetie, you have to get up. We're going home now."
Go away!
"Honey you need to get up now."
No! 5 more minutes…
I really didn't want to have to do this.
"Renesmee… someone might be coming. We need to get home now." Her eyes snapped open. Her thoughts were flooded with images of the Volturi as her eyes flooded with tears.
"No sweetheart it's ok. Everything is going to be fine. It's just one and they just want to talk." I felt bad lying to her. I had no idea how this was going to turn out. She got up and walked over to Jacob. He picked her up into his arms and said so quietly no one would have heard except for me, "It's not going to be okay, is it?" And in that moment, I couldn't lie to him. I shook my head gravely, and said, "I have no idea."
When we got home, Alice was on the couch, her head in her hands, and Jasper was rubbing her back. Her head snapped up when she heard us come in.
"Oh thank god! Edward, it keeps changing. One minute he's running, and the next, he's sitting in the corner of the palace and there's no child in sight."
I looked into her thoughts as another vision came. The vampire was running again, child in his arms. I was shocked as I got a better view of the child. It was a spitting image of Caius. I took in a sharp breath and looked to Carlisle.
"The child looks exactly like Caius." I said to him.
"But that's crazy. He would never disregard Athenodora like that." He denied.
"Who knows? The wives never leave the tower, and it could have come as an order from Aro. You saw the interest he took in the half-breeds." I looked over at my sleeping daughter. "Jacob, why don't you take Renesmee to bed? I don't want to risk her waking up and hearing any of this."
"Sure," He said, picking up Renesmee. "I'll tell Leah and Seth to head over too. We should discuss the protection details."
"Okay."
"Edward," Carlisle said. "Do you think Aro is using humans to create hybrids?"
"It's possible. I mean, when they came to uh… "Visit" us the last time and he found out about Joham, he was curious, and had no intentions of killing him."
"So what we can assume is that Aro is creating hybrids with his guards and fellow leaders for some sick reasons."
"Correct."
"Those poor women" I heard Bella whisper, probably remembering her own pregnancy. I put my arm around her and pulled her into my chest.
"But how does that explain the guard who was sin my vision?" Alice asked. And for once, I had no answer.
Unknown Volturi Guard POV
I was so conflicted. Caius had a daughter. That was not right. This had to be a sick joke. He wasn't even there for the birth. He saw her once and told someone to take care of her for him; he would be back when she was grown. That was wrong, completely sadistic. Then again, that was Caius for you.
Athenodora went ballistic. But eventually, with Corin's help, we were able to calm her. On days like this, I was thankful for Corin's ability. She could make someone feel content in a situation. She was on full duty, 24/7 in the wives' tower. She made them feel happy about not seeing their husbands and being locked in there all day (under Aro's orders of course). I hated it. I occasionally gave her breaks by going into the tower and talking to them. I would tell them about what their husbands were doing. I would take them out to hunt. I really enjoyed their company.
I was one of the kinder members of the guard. I felt bad for everything I was forced to do, everyone I was told to kill. I'll admit, there was that instinct to kill, but every vampire had that. I was a little lonely, a bit of a flirt. But despite that, underneath it all, I cared for this child. I wanted to run, take it to safety, and give it a good life instead of having an awful childhood in this piece of hell. I was conflicted though. The killer in me wanted to stay. I had a good life though. If I left, I would be considered a traitor and killed if found. So I would wait. It was time to visit the wives anyway.
