Hey guys! New chapter obviously.

Read on!

Edward Cullens pov

She didn't seem real. Too beautiful to be a person. Esme could see a real change in me since I seen Isabella. She wanted me to be happy but she wasn't sure what she thought of Isabella. It made me slightly angery but I knew that I couldn't question Esme's judgment.

Look at how Isabella acts. She acts so...confindinate. And not in a good way. In a way that lets people know that they'd better do what she says or she'll tear you head off...litterally. It didn't make me not have an instinct to protect her. In fact it only reinforced the instinct. She was a real danger magnet. She loved it. It didn't change my mind about her. She needed help that's all. She made some smart comments and spoke beautifully in Italian.

Jane had been...aroused and I had seen what it was about. Demetri...naked. Emmet asked and I had been forced to tell him. The whole family was laughing on the inside. What I didn't get was how Jane could produce such a vivid picture even though she had never seen him...that way before.

"Little sister that's the oldest trick in the book. Couldn't you come up with something a little more original?" A male's voice rang out. Little sister? Bella tensed up.

I turned to where the voice came from a seen, of course a man standing by the door along with eight other people beside him. He had black hair and similar features. Dark eyes. There was another man standing next him but he looked closer to Bella's age. Again dark hair and similar features but he had tree moss green eyes. The 3 were obviously related.

"Damen. Stefan. Elena. Caroline. Tyler. Bonnie. Rose. Alexander. And last but never least...Lexi. Goody." She said with sarcasm dripping in her voice. "To what do I owe the pleasure?"

'More of her kind.' Aro said not sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Hello." They greeted Aro.

"Alright let's get to the chase. We came to bring Bella home. And if you try to keep us here or kill us we have back up, I am sure the Originals wouldn't like you killing off their blood lines." Damen says as he and the other man I am asuming is Stefan placed their hands on Bella shoulders which she roughly tried to beat off only to realize they weren't going to let go.

"Why should we?" Caius said flahing before them. In a split second he was on the ground groaning in pain.

"Because we weren't asking your permission." Damen stated and I looked around for Jane because she was the only one who could do that.

I'd seen a small dark skinned girl step forward, holding her hand up. "I can crush your skull in a second and not think about it. I doubt you or anyone else would like to try to mess with us."

Aro and Carlisle from what I could tell were intrigued by this girl. She was obviously human. So how could she do that? Caius was shamed in front of the people who had feared him. Infront of his own guards. Bella did nothing but watched.

"What do you plan to do when you return?"

"Get her emotions back on that for sure." Stefan said.

"Relax after that." A blonde girl with green eyes said.

"Oh hell no. You really think that I'll break? I know all your tricks." Bella said inspecting her nails. I didn't want her to leave.

"I am intrigued. I do ask you one favor. Will you do it here?" Aro asked and they shrugged.

"I always wanted to check out Italy at this time of the year." said a spikey haired brunette.

"Sure." They all agreed. Bella had a blank look on her face.

"I'm not breaking." She said stubornly.

"That's what you think." Damen said as he flashed beside her and stuck her with a needle filled with a liquid.

'Damn that's gotta hurt' he thought. I wanted to rush to her and make the hurting stop but she was passed out.

"Alright I need a steel chair with arm/hand clamps and leg clamps." Damen said.

"Oh of course. Felix, Demetri go." Aro sent them off.

"Hurry too!" Damen ordered.

They set the still unconcious Bella up in the chair as all of us watched. It was in front of a window the was heavily covered up with black curtains. When she regained conciousness by Damen slamming a fire extigisher on the ground next her, Bella tried to remove her hands from the steel but found she couldn't.

"Good your awake." He said smiling.

"You took my ring. I'm devestated. Now we both know that you brought something to lock me in as solitary so can I please go there instead?" She asked boredly.

"Well, since you want to then no." A blond said but she had brown eyes the other green eyed one was staring at Bella and about to break into tears.

Bella frowned.

"What not used to getting your way. How very Katherine of you." Said another man whose name was Alexander.

"You would know. Dont compare me to her. Katherine has been running for so long she is afraid of her own shadow. Unlike me who is afraid of nothing." Bella smirked at him. I could see that there was another story that was buried deep by the look she gave him.

"You should be." Rose said.

"Stefan, shed some light on the subject." Lexi said.

"Your not going to pull it." Bella said close to laughter.

"You dont think I will?" He asked next to the curtain and she shook her head.

"Nope. You love me too much to hurt me. Its like asking a little boy to kick his puppy." She said.

He gave her a look before ripping the curtain out of place and light poured in, hitting her left arm. She cried out in pain and I couldn't help but stand up only to be pulled down by Emmet who shook his head at me.

They left the curtain open until her arm started on fire Damen grabbed the fire extiguser and put it out. She was out of breath. Lexi bent down infront of her and looked her in the eyes.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm doing what I do best. Saving you." Lexi smiled and Bella started yelling for her to stop.

None of us could understand what she was doing.

"I'm draining her. 6 months with out blood." Bella was panting. "1 year without blood." Her eyes got weak.

"2 years." her head was bowed down and her breathing was low and heavy. They finally unchained her. Damen picked her up and threw her to the ground. She hit it with a grunt and a thud.

He held out a blood bag for her. I was confused. She automatically took it. She ripped into it and started drinking. It didn't smell right everyone could tell. She spit it out, coughing and wretching. She mummured something.

"I didn't quite catch that. Speak a little louder." Even tough he had.

"I said I. AM. GOING. TO. KILL. YOU."She panted out.

"See! There's a little rage. Should have figured that would be the first emotion out of you." He was pleased with himself while I was sick to my stomach.

I felt two pairs of eyes on me. Rose's (Not his sister) and Elena's. I'm guessing they seen my reaction to Bella being in the sunlight with out her ring. They grabbed Bella and locked her in a steel valt. Rose came up and sat next to me.

"I see you staring at Bella." She said. She had a long-lost British accent.

"Everyone is." I confirmed looking around.

"Not like you though. You stare at her like you see a girl that can be much more then she is giving us. They see a monster. It tells me something."

"What?"

"That you are going to see her for what she is. You care too much about a girl you haven't met. Yet." She smirked.

"Huh?" I ask, not clear on the plan.
"Your gonna met Bella. Your going to help us turn her emotions back on. It won't be because she loves 'll be because she loves you." She says standing up. "Aro. Do you have a dark room that we can take this vault to. I have a feeling she's going to be in their a while."
"Yes." Aro said, pleased with the progress they made.

They followed Demetri, with the vault in tow.

"So you going to help?" Emmet asked, putting his arm around Rosalie who clearly thought that they should just put the girl down like a dog. I narrowed my eyes at her.

"Yes."
"I don't see why. You dont even know her." Rosalie snarled.

"Doesn't matter. Rose seems to think that I can help her." I said calmly.

"Well, Rose is wrong. This Bella girl is an emotionless insensetive bitch." Rosalie spat.

"Rosalie." Carlisle quieted her.

"Edward we just dont want to see you get hurt if you can't help her." Esme pats my hand on the table.

"I will be fine." My gaze softened.

"Esme and the rest of us dont want you getting attached to this girl more then you already are." Carlisle said.

"Again there is nothing to be worried about. I want to try." I said seeing Lexi waving me over.

I quickly jumped up and raced to her side.

'Wow. He must be eager to help.' Lexi thought.

'Very." I confirmed and she stared at me. "Our kind get special gifts. A talent that we bring from our human lives. Although it seems to get stronger as we turn. I am a mind reader." I gave her more information.

'Great.' She thought. 'Well, this could be a good thing. I will talk to you in my head okay?'

I nodded.

'Have a seat' she gestured to the chair next to her. 'Alright Rose tell's me of her suspisions of you.'

I nod.

'Well, you have to know some stuff about Bella.' She thought.

I nod again for her to continue.

'That means her past. Bella is known to our race as the ripper of Mona Rae. A ripper is a vampire of our race who doesn't his or her emotions on and kill just because they can. It makes them powerful. She is a ripper now but years ago around the 1920's she was known for her ripper ways. She could take out an entire village in under an hour. I guess now Bella is a little harder to break because of how old she is. That and she is very stubborn.' Lexi laughed at that thought.

Lexi seemed like a good person. She thought of how many times she had saved Bella's humanity. Of the first time she had gotten Bella drunk. The good times. In the 80's and most of the 90's that they spent their time getting drunk and going to concerts. Meeting famous bands. Traveling. Not having anything to look forward to.

I seen Bella in her memories that she was giving to me. Bella with soft doe brown eyes. Bella that cared for each and every person that came to her. She always tried to help them. A girl that was always good to people but never had really anything good in return. Not that she blamed anyone for that. She didn't blame her brothers for their infactuation with a woman that resulted in her immortality.

"Damon and stefan have always had their disagreements on how to protect Bella." Lexi said but in her mind she always sided with Stefan. I think Rose knew that and came over to us.

"You see Damon challenges her. Makes her question her belifs and morals. He is either a good thing for her or a bad thing but she loves him all the way. Stefan,well, Stefan his love is pure and he will always be good for her." Rose said, glaring at Lexi who returned it.

I thought that they were going to break out in a fight and start yelling:

"Team Damon!"
"Team Stefan!"
"So you see Edward. We need your help. You need to remind Bella. You need her to rely on you. Then we wait to see if she want to be saved." Caroline said stepping between the glaring girls.

"I see. And if I can't?" I asked.
"We can sit here and play the 'if' game but we have to try." She said.

"So this is the guy you think can help save my sister." Damon says walking up.

"Yep. He seems devoted." Rose says.

"We shall see." He says, staring at me with narrowed eyes.

"He is very protective. If Bella wanted to commit sucide to save some people then she would. Stefan would repect her wishes. He wouldn't like them but he would repect them. Damon on the other hand would do whatever it takes to keep her safe and alive. Even if that meant tying her up and throwing her down a well for 50 some odd years." Caroline told me.

I raised one eyebrow and she shrugged.

"So when did you want to see Bella?" She turns to me.

"Well...um...when ever I can." I studder to her and she smiles warmly.

"In 1 hour. Be here." She says and walks away with Damon, Lexi, and Rose following her.

I let out a breath. 1 hour.

Caroline's Pov (Just to see what she is thinking of Edward)

It was like one of those terrible but hilarious chick-flicks. Edward was sort of nerdy but still very pretty guy who stood in the shadows. Bella was a mean cheerleader. Together they ran hot and cold. Edward teaches Bella and she teaches him.

I knew he wouldn't take advange of her in her weak state. I don't even think that was ever his intention. I think she facinated him. I also think he is still a virgin . I mean he didn't even try to sneek a peek down my shirt. I'm sure if he were human that he would have blushed red if he had accidently did it. And apologize if he knew that I had caught him. I hope Bella does use that against him. If she did then she would chew him up and spit him out alive. Then again she was a virgin too. Last time I checked...

She'd be in good hands. She didn't have to care about him right away. Just rely on him. And in the long run she would love him. I knew it. He was her type. The quiet, mysterious, nerdy guy. Not a bad boy like Alexander is. Edward seemed like the guy to want to wait for marriage. Just like Bella.

Edward was in for a ride.

I hope you all like it. Review please. I would like to thank those who already did on the last chapters. See ya later!
