The Riley twist was a spur of the moment idea, but this story remains canon, and the reason he's around will hopefully be introduced in this chapter! Sorry! I didn't think it would cause so much confusion but I wanted to draw the story out longer which is why this chapter explains everything, and I desperately hope this doesn't add to the confusion either.

This chapter also is pretty mature, and I may change the rating of the fic, but I'm not completely sure yet.


(Renesmee's POV)

I scoffed.

"Your supposed to be dead, my parents told me all about the battle" I stated blankly

"Well maybe they told you wrong, to protect you" He replied, staring into my eyes.

"They wouldn't do that, I'm sure of it."

"It's not a crime to be wrong, princess" He smirked

"Stop calling me that. I'm not a princess, and the only person who can call me that anyway is my father. NOT YOU"I screamed at him, my eyes blazing with fury, I began running away from him, even though I didn't know where I was going.

"Get back here. Now." He roared.

"No. Leave me alone, I don't know what you want from me, but I have a family at home, one that needs me, so if you'll excuse me, I'll be on my way" I roughly pushed past him, but his icy hand grabbed my wrist and flung me backwards.

"You. Will. Do. As. I. Say." He said each word darkly, his voice laced with venom. I shuddered and felt the tears well up in my eyes, I just wanted Jacob, he was the only man for me, not this sick physcopath.

Before I knew it, I was thrown into the building's brick walls. His freezing hands gripped me so tight, it began to crack my bones.

"Not so confident now, are we?" he laughed, the sound filling the pitch black room.

"HELP! SOMEBODY! ANYBODY!" I began screamed louder and louder as I thrashed in his hold, even though I knew nobody of importance would hear me, I wasn't even sure my family got my last message, and now my powers were cut off, so the little hope I had left was gone. The little hope I had left was now with God, praying for him to let me survive.

I wasn't sure how long I stayed bleeding in the arms of my captivator, when he finally spoke, seemingly to himself. Like he had two brains in his head and they were each having a conversation. Something was definately going on, something that wasn't ordinary, even for him. I listened harder.

"She can't be bitten, it will kill her"

"So what do I do with her, we need to do everything quickly, before they find her"

"We don't have to discuss it now, just keep her in pain until we think of a better idea"

I cringed. Instantly he shut up and turned his attention to me.

"Well, well, well look who's up! What did you think about last night?" He said his voice dripping with fakeness

I was in so much pain I couldn't even speak. I opened my mouth, but no words came out.

"Are you going to answer me or sit there?" He questioned fiercely

I still remained silent.

"I SAID ANSWER ME" He roared punching me in the side

"I-I-I um" I stuttered, only getting more punches thrown at me. I really wished I'd learned to fight.

"Please, just please, stop" I whispered staring down at my bloody body.

"Why? Why should I? Your family caused so much pain on me and...well...um..." He rambled, unsure of what his story was

"What? What is with you? First you have wierd conversations with yourself and then you can't remember your vampire life? Are you serious? Who or what even are you?" I asked, sensing a lie in the air

"I'm a vampire named Riley Biers, nothing has changed" He ran off through the building, worrying about something, something that might just be my ticket out of here.

"Yes something has, but your too caught up in hurting me to notice. There's something wierd about you, and I will figure it out. Cross my heart and hope to die."


I was searching around the warehouse for something to clean the blood off of me with. But being in a place with sadistic vampires meant that they didn't have the comforts of band-aids and peroxide. I wandered for what seemed like hours, not really sure where I was going when I saw it, sure I shouldn't have been so suprised, but the horrific thought crossed my mind as I land eyes on the room across from me. I should have seen this coming, I really should have. But for some reason, I just didn't make the connection.

Standing right across the hall from me was Jane, Alec, and a new member of the Volturi, toying with Riley's motionless body. I stood aside and watched for what seemed like forever until I gathered the courage to approach them.

"What's going on?" I asked, walking across the hall

"Oh Renesmee how nice of you to join!" Alec smiled sinisterely

"Who is that" I asked, pointing towards the tall man with the dirty blonde short hair, muscular body and stubble coating his face.

This is Branden Cayle, he's a new member of the Volturi, and he can manipuate dead bodies in any condition and become one with the body." Jane sneered.

It all made sense now, the conversation, the cluelessness, everything.

"We have been watching you for quite a while, all while learning Riley's story through his human family and friends. We decided on using him as a ploy, because the real reason you're here is simple: Aro had planned this all along, he may have waited to capture you when you were a child, but now that you're fully grown, and nobody is around to fight for you, it was easier than ever. However, Riley and your family have a backstory, a history, and it made everything so much easier"

"So Aro is behind all this pain, that you-" I turned to glare at Branden "Caused on me. I'm still bleeding asshole." I spoke slowing, but with command

"Yes, princess" He said, smirking at me as he turned to Jane, giving her a look.

"Oh this should be fun" She grinned, and focused her eyes on me, intensely glaring at me. At first I felt nothing, and I stood staring back at her, until it hit me. It hit me like a ton of bricks. The most excruciating pain I've ever felt in my life, I could hardly breathe and I became crippled on the floor, screaming out in agony"

"STOP, PLEASE, PLEASE JANE, PLEASE PLEASE STOP! I'M BEGGING YOU! PLEASE!" I screamed louder and louder, but the pain only intensified, and before I knew it, I was passed out cold on the floor, writhing in pain


(Edward's POV)

I needed to get my daughter back, Bella and Jacob were distraught, and I felt a void in my chest without her. The kids didn't joke around or talk anymore, and resulting in simply staying in their rooms, not make everything easier on Jacob, which broke each of our hearts some-more.

Edward, I need to talk to you Alice's thoughts rang clear in my head

"Bella, love, Alice wants to speak with me, will you be okay here?" I asked her

"Yes" She whispered back, kissing my head and staring blankly into my eyes. I walked outside, and met Alice.

"What's so important?" I asked

"Visions. I'm having visions. They are of Riley, and a new member of the Volturi."

"Alice, Riley is dead."

"I know, that's what makes it so wierd, we need to keep an eye out, it could lead us to Renesmee. Now don't tell Bella, the kids, or Jacob, if i'm wrong, they won't be able to handle it, and we don't want to get their hopes up."

"I won't Alice, but thank you" I said pulling her into a hug

"Of course Edward, of course" She replied

When I walked back into the house, all eyes were on me, but I only saw Bella. She smiled weakly at me

"Edward, I know you know something, and I need you to tell me." She commanded

"Yeah me too" A familiar husky voice that belonged to Jacob said

"Alice thinks it would be best if I didn't, for everyone. We don't need you to get your hopes up and crushed again" I simply stated

"But I will tell you this, we need a plan and fast, because whoever's running this, doesn't like to follow the rules" I continued, locking eyes with Bella and Jacob.

We were going to get her back.


So sorry this chapter is so short, but it's really designed to be an author's note in disguise. The next chapter will be the usual length, I promise! And if any of you are still confused, Riley wasn't really alive, but Branden was posing as him in his dead body (Branden's gift) Pm me if you have any questions!

Also, even though this chapter is short, it took 4 hours to write, so reviews would be appriciated. I write in the little free time I have, and reviews mean a lot and motivate me. I want to thank everyone who always reviews, you guys rock! And for the people who don't, well you know who you are ;)

So can we get to 20 reviews on this chapter?! I know it was short, but it gives you a bunch of details!
