A/N: Thanks for the reviews I really appreciate them. Here is a new chapter for you all to enjoy, hope you like it :)
Got a bit of an announcement coming up after this so please read it :D
RPOV:
It's been 4 days since Violet and her friend Bree arrived here in Forks for the upcoming fight with the Volturi. Over these past few days I've been trying to do whatever I can to get her attention…while trying to seem not to desperate but nothing seems to working. All she's done is tell me 'Sorry Rosalie, not today or I'm bonding with Tanya today.' I understand completely about wanting to being with your new mate, I know when it was me and Bella we were joined at the hip for months, but I kind of seems to me that she is sometimes saying that to avoid me. I know I'm supposed to keep my distance but it's so hard not to be by her side every second of the day.
"You ready Rose?" Bella asks placing a hand on my shoulder.
"For what?"
"Training. Jasper wants us all to train together to prepare…remember? We all need to lean each other's strengths and weaknesses so we can have each other's backs." She tells me wrapping her arm around my waist.
"Yeah I remember." I lean back into my wife as we look out the window at everyone gathering outside our house preparing to go train. My eyes zone in on Violet who is laughing with Tanya, Kate, Bree and Alice.
"I know it's hard not being by her side and having that mother, daughter relationship, but look at how much she's changed with the whole family. In the past she would be here physically but not mentally, but now she's laughing and joking with everyone. We just need to get over the small hurdles first before she tackles the big one." She quietly says into my ear leaving a kiss on my neck.
"And I'm the big hurdle." I sigh.
"You're the beautiful hurdle. Just give it some time." She whispers.
.
.
.
"Hey Bells." I call to her after a couple minutes of silence.
"Yeah baby?" She asks with her head still resting on my shoulder.
"Are you worried about James and what he's planning?"
She takes an unnecessary deep breath and tightens her hold around my waist.
"I think I've always been slightly worried about him and what he's got planned. I knew he would fully never let go of me or Vic but I decided not to let stay at the front of my mind and enjoy my life with you, but yeah I've always been worried but I know he won't win. We're a strong bunch Rose and we've all got each other's back. The Volturi don't care about him, so he's already at a disadvantage with no one caring about what happens to him. He won't break us Rose. He's going to die, I'll make sure of it." She says with a strong voice.
"I believe you."
And I really do, everything that comes out of Bella's mouth is always so strong and true. I never feel unsafe with her.
We stand in each other's arms just enjoying each other.
"Right come on then, come show me your moves sexy." She says brightly slapping me on bum trying to brighten the mood.
We head downstairs and see all the family and our visitors have all gathered there joking and laughing, or making plans of attack in case it comes to a fight with the Volturi. Carlisle turns to us with a smile as we come down the stairs.
"Right lets go then." He calls to everyone. I guess they were waiting for us.
…...
Everyone heads into the woods, probably towards the small clearing area not too far from the house where Emmett likes to sparr with everyone all the time. We asked the wolves if they would like to join us today to train but they refused saying they wouldn't be comfortable or at ease with that many 'blood suckers' around. So we're all gather around the clearing area and Jasper brings out his hat with all our names in it, we all decided we'd draw names out of a hat to decide who spar's with whom.
"Right come on then Alice, you up first."
Alice bounds over to Jasper with a happy smile and pulls out a folded up piece of paper.
"Ooooh I got Irina." She says sending her a cheeky wave.
Then slowly everyone picked a name out of a hat, and soon we were all paired up with our fighting partners with Jasper as our coach.
Bella vs Violet.
Me vs Max (Jaspers friend)
Carlisle vs Siobhan
Edward vs Amun
Alice vs Irina
Meg vs Laurent
Emmett vs Maggie
Victoria vs Esme
Peter vs Tanya
Carmen vs Zafrina
Eleazar vs Tia
Kate vs Senna
Bree vs Charlotte
Ben vs Kebi
As we pull out our names from the hats the people who know each other would be sending winks or sly jabs. I felt a bit odd when Max pulled out my name because of how he's just been sneaking and sulking around the house, and the looks I'd seen him give the women over the past few days. When he pulled my name out I saw the corners of his lips twitch slightly and he sent a quick look my way…...or maybe I'm just being paranoid.
Bella and Violet have just finished sparing and the outcome was pretty even, actually overall everyone has been pretty even, we've got some good fighters on our hands. I look to the left of me to still see Emmett pouting, during his fight with little Maggie she kicked his ass big time. There is a huge size difference between them but she's fast and smart and Emmett just goes with his muscle, which didn't work out great this time.
"Okay Rose, Max you're up." Jasper calls.
I look over at Max and he is staring at me with a neutral expression. I have no idea what he's thinking. I know going into this fight I need to keep my wits about me if what Jasper has told us about him is true. Max is only a few years old and has quite a temper, Jasper also told us he didn't have great relationships with women in his human life so he's not overly fond of them…...just my luck.
We stand at opposite ends of the fighting area waiting for our cue to go. I sneak a quick look to Bella who is staring back at me with a worried expression, I also notice Violet with the same expression, I send Bella a smile and face my opponent again.
"Alright clean fight guys. Ready…...go."
As soon as the words leave Jasper's mouth Max is charging straight at me. I leap right over the top of him and he lets out a small angry growl and turns back towards me. His eyes are now pitch black and the look on his face reminds me of an untrained angry newborn.
He comes back towards me and I throw him away and he slams into a tree but is right back up and prowling towards me. I hear Bella's growl behind me, I guess she is seeing something off with him too, but I ignore her for now and concentrate on the psychopath in front of me.
He speeds towards me and I go to jump over him again but he guesses my move this time and grabs my leg pulling me down to the ground and slamming me into the dirt. He pulls my arm behind my back so far where I soon hear a crack.
"Max calm down it's just training." Jasper calls.
That seems to put him off because I feel the pressure lessens slightly so I make my move and kick him back.
"Chill out asshole….I'm not the enemy." I shout at him.
"Maybe we should call it a day." Carlisle suggests but Max is already running back at me.
He jumps on me ad pins me to the ground. I try to push him off but I can't get a good hold on the little fucker. He pounds his hands into my face extremely fast and feel the cracks gathering. I somehow feel myself leaving my body but there is a thunderous roar that echoes through the woods and the weight is pulled off my body and the beating comes to a stop.
"Rose? Rose are you okay baby? I'm sorry I couldn't stop him, his friends were holding me back." Bella rambles helping me sit up.
"YOU BASTARD." I head being screamed.
I look up and see Violet standing in front of Max who is being pinned up against the tree by an invisible force. I guess Violet is channeling her telekinesis. I see Jasper, Peter and Charlotte trying to get to them both, but they're also being held back by the same force.
My family and everyone else is also looking at him with so much hate, I can see they want a piece of him, but no one is going to her in the way of Violet right now.
"Who do you think you are doing that to my mother? I should rip you apart." She growls and I see flames start to appear on her hands.
"Let me go bitch." He growls.
"Wrong answer." She mutters darkly. I can't let her do this. I don't want her to become a monster like me.
"Violet." I call out and her body freezes.
"Stop. Don't do this." She turns to me and I see so much hurt in her eyes.
"But he hurt you."
"I'm fine. He's just a silly boy, he can't control is emotions yet. It was a mistake to bring him." I say throwing a glance to Jasper who looks down with guilt.
"So we let him away with it…so he can stay here and hurt you some more. I don't think so." She walks closer to him and I get up with some help from Bella and Alice.
"No. He can leave and finally learn some control. It's not easy to control the monster…I know that first hand." I whisper the last part and she looks back to me with a sad look and some understanding. Has me keeping my distance really helped in some way.
"Fine, but get him out of my sight. If I see him again he's dead." She lets him drop to the ground and Charlotte and Peter rush to his side.
"We'll take him away, thanks you. I'm sorry we added to your problems. I wish you all the best with the Volturi." Peter says leaving the woods with Charlotte and Max with Jasper and Carlisle following.
"You okay baby?" Bella asks looking so scared.
"Yeah I'm good, just a tad banged up." I give her a kiss letting her know I'm fine and giving us both the comfort we need right now.
"You sure you're okay." Violets voice says from behind me, popping my bubble with Bella. She is stood with her arm wrapped around Tanya looking at me scared.
"Yeah I'm fine. Thank you for the help." I say shyly. I feel like a stranger to my own daughter.
"No problem." She says equally quiet.
Tanya nudges her and gives her a subtle nod but I catch it. Violet takes a deep breath and looks back to me with her now normal golden eyes shining with fear and nervousness.
"Would you maybe…like to talk later…with me." She mumbles out awkwardly.
"I'd love to." I beam at her and I feel Bella's happiness radiating off of her too as she wraps her arm around my waist.
"Okay good. I'll come find you later on." She finishes with a smile leaving the forest with Tanya and her sisters.
I squeal in happiness and jump into Bella's arms and she squeezes me tightly, spinning me around letting out her own joyful laugh.
"I can't believe it Bella. She actually wants to talk to me." I cry with happiness as Bella lowers me back to the ground.
"I told you Rose, no one can keep away from you."
"Maybe things are starting to finally look up." I lean my whole body into Bella's and she wraps her arms around me. We both stand together enjoying the thought of the possibility of having our daughter back.

"What's wrong Alice?" Meg asks with concern laced into her voice.
I pull myself out of my spot in Bella's arms and see Alice with a scared look on her face and an equally looking scared Edward next to her.
"They're coming." She whispers out.
"What? When? I thought we had more time." Megan says pulling Nessie close to her.
Alice looks towards the ground with shame, she's been keeping track of the Volturi, making sure she knows when they're coming so we can be ready…I guess they found a way around it or erratic Aro just changed his mind.
"When are they coming Alice?" Bella asks but Alice's concentration stays on the ground.
"Tomorrow…. They're coming tomorrow." Edward answers moving closer to his family.
Maybe things aren't looking up after all.
