Review:

(Bella's Pov)

Jasper gasped looking around. The barn was now full of freezers with clear doors. Full of human blood bags. "This is rather different than when I was here." He looked down at me. "Thank ya darlin' for helpin' me ta come ta terms with my past." He bent down and kissed me before heading over to one of the refrigerators, pulling a couple of bags out. "Care ta join me darlin'?" He asked turning back around.

"Of course." I told him as I walked over at human speed and took one bag from him.

Chapter 8: Speaking With Death

(Bella's Pov – Meeting Hall – Early Morning)

Sitting in my chair I was waiting for my grandmother to arrive. Two messengers from the Volturi had showed up about an hour ago. I kept my opinions to myself because I was still rather tired from last night with my mate. I felt a hand on my leg and smiled looking over at Jasper who was sitting beside me. I took his hand with mine as I sat there with Demetri and Jane, the so called messengers. Aisha, Niol and Niko were behind me standing with their eyes on the two at the other end of the table. I had my group shielded which meant that Jane could not use her little power on them.

"Where is Maria?" Jane hissed as she stood up. "We will not wait any longer." Her eyes narrowed as she looked at me. I could feel some pressure on my shield but I knew she wasn't getting through.

"Stop Jane." Demetri hissed jerking her down to her seat. "Marcus, Aro and Caius told us that we are not to engage the targets but to get some information. Then to answer back to them on what to do." Jane and Demetri were having a stare off.

Jane hissed and snapped her teeth, at Demetri, as she crossed her arms and leaned back in the chair, looking the other way. I could only smirk at her because of the anger that I could see in her eyes. Demetri was looking at me with a raised eyebrow then looked at Jasper. I just raised an eyebrow in return and tilted my head to the side. Demetri just shook his head and looked away. I smirked but stiffened when I caught the scent of my grandmother, Maria, Javier and Peter hit my nose. I stood and made my way over the door. I would not let Maria walk in here unless she had protection from my shield. As soon as Maria, Javier and Peter entered I could feel some more pressure against my shield.

"Would you mind not attacking anyone or I will put you down personally." I hissed as I turned around to Jane. I could see that she looked fearful. "Now why don't we all seat down then we may talk about what you wish to know."

I kept my eyes on Jane and Demetri as I held a chair out for Maria. Maria took a seat then Javier, who sat in between her and Jane and Demetri. Peter took seat next to Jasper while Niko, Niol and Aisha kept on their feet however Niko and Niol moved over to where Maria and Javier were sitting. Aisha stayed behind me that way her line of sight was not interfered with. She didn't want to burn anyone that she didn't want to and only two were in her line of sight at the moment. A deadly smile graced her lips because of the fear I saw in Demetri and Janes' eyes.

"Now that my Grandmother is here what do you wish to know?" I asked leaning forward and placing my forearms on the table, arms crossed, with one eyebrow raised.

"We heard from Edward, Carlisle and Alice that you were planing to move against the Volturi however since then they have disappeared from Aro's radar. Aro is now wondering if his intel was correct." Demetri decided it would be best if he spoke. "Do you know where they are?"

I could see that Jane did not like that they were here and could do nothing. "From what our seer saw they are with Anubis." I looked at Demetri unknown if they knew of the first vampires. "I can imagine that they wish to take over the human world along with vampire world. They will start with me then work onto your masters."

"What do you think?" Demetri looked at Jasper. "You know them for 80 years."

"I believe that my mate is correct." He took my hand above the table. "Lilith came here and handed over her powers to Bella, which could only lead me to believe that she knows what's to come." Jasper squeezed my hand keeping his eyes on Jane and Demetri.

"Then we shall call Aro and let him know of this. Please excuse us." Demetri stood with Jane at his side. They both bowed however Demetri bowed slightly lower than Jane. They then left the room and walked outside the house. I knew they would need to speak away from my compound however I could only imagine what they will be telling the leading vampires.

Maria cleared her throat as she looked at Jasper. "Major?" Her voice was low but full of curiosity.

"Yes, Maria?" He asked as he leveled his red eyes at her. "Is there something that you wish to say?" I could tell that he was trying thus I grabbed his hand under the table and squeezed letting him know that I was right beside him.

Maria shifted in her seat and I could tell that my grandmother was rather nervous. "How..." She cleared her throat. "How are you doing?" She tried to smile friendly.

I could only squeeze Jasper's hand as I felt him stiffen. I turned my head to him and raised my eyebrows, waiting for him to speak. "It's not like it use to be." He gave her a small smile. "I'm..." He swallowed. "I'm glad that you have realized what you did and are trying to make amends." I could see Maria's arms slump as if a weight was lifted.

"I am truly sorry for what I did to you and the others." She cringed as Javier wrapped his arms around her. "But when I found Lira and then Javier I knew that if I could finally change then I could seek forgiveness from you, Peter and Charlotte." She looked as if she could cry.

I didn't notice anything til my grandmother looked at me with wide eyes along with everyone in the room. Just then Demetri and Jane walked in but froze when they saw me. I looked at Jasper and he just smiled wiping my cheek. I looked down and froze. I cried again. I closed my eyes and took a deep breathe which was weird because I felt the air go in and mix with the blood but I didn't need it. Jasper handed me a red hankie. I took it and wiped my eyes of my 'bloody' tears.

"Just another thing that I have to get use to." I whispered feeling slightly embarrassed. I stiffened when I felt someone enter the compound. My eyes went to Jane and Demetri and found that their eyes were lowered to the ground. My eyes harden as I rose to my feet. Niko, Niol and Aisha were at the ready at any moment. "What did the Brothers say when you called them?" I narrowed my eyes as I moved in front of the two with ease. Neither of them saw me move which made them jump slightly.

"Aro is on his way to speak with you and Maria." Demetri raised his eyes for a second to look me in the eyes. "It must be him coming into the building."

I snorted. "Then I shall go see to our visitor however if it isn't Aro I will personally deal with you two." I turned and walked out with Niko behind me.

I knew that Aisha and Niol would make sure that Maria and Javier were unharmed while I was away. I could feel Jasper coming up behind us as he followed. I wouldn't wait for him because our guest was almost through the gate and I wanted to make sure that it was Aro. If not I would have some fun with the intruder as target practice. Then I would have fun with Jane and Demetri.

(3rd Person Pov – Anubis bed Chambers)

Anubis was sitting on his bed with his mate lying beside him. Edward was pacing back and forth at the foot while Natasha (Guessing Anubis mate's name) slept. Anubis raised an eyebrow as he watched Edward pace.

"Is there something wrong?" He asked in a amused tone, while he stroked Natasha's arm. "I can see that you are having some trouble."

Edward stopped pacing as he turned slowly towards Anubis. "You told me that if we remained here I would be granted a life along with my two mates." His eyes were black from anger. "All I have now is a female mate that is scared and a male mate that is rather upset with me at this time because of how I am acting."

Anubis waved his hand. "That is not my problem." He swung his legs over the edge of the bed and stood. "The only way that you will receive the life I am granted is if I give it to you however I do not feel that you deserve such a thing." He walked over naked and took his robe and covered himself then turned back around as Carlisle walked in.

"Anubis." Carlisle greeted as he walked over to Edward with a frown on his face. "Do you forget who is the sire between us?" He hissed as he wiped his hand forward and grabbed Edward by the throat. "Because if so then I would be more than happy to remind you." His eyes were black and narrowed.

Edward snarled as he grabbed Carlisle's wrist. "I haven't forgotten but then again you are just weak when it comes to Alice." He spat as Carlisle tightened his grip on his throat.

"She is our mate and thus is put first yet you have not put her first in anything since Isabella came into the picture." He snapped tossing Edward across the room.

Anubis was watching the argument between the two with amusement in his red eyes. He smirked as he walked up to Carlisle. "You seem to have your priorities straight unlike the young Edward." He looked Carlisle over. "I may just give you what the young Edward desires."

Carlisle hissed as he looked at Edward. "And what did he desire?" Carlisle looked back at Anubis.

"My position." Anubis told Carlisle as he sat in the chair at the end of his bed. Natasha was still asleep. "I would transfer my life to you and then you shall be the father of the vampires. I already believe that my sister gave her power away to the Young Isabella."

Edward hissed as he jumped up and went to Anubis. "That is the reason I want to be the one." His eyes found Carlisle. "I have the right to kill that bitch."

Anubis nodded but kept his eyes on Carlisle. "What shall you do?" He looked from Carlisle to Edward. "One of you wants the power but the other would be a better candidate." He stood then walked out the room most likely to feed.

Carlisle stood there looking at Edward. "I know you wish to kill Isabella but you must understand that if she already has the power then most likely she will more powerful than either of us or Alice." He frowned. "Do you think this is what Alice is keeping from us?"

"I wouldn't put it past her." Edward hissed as he turned and walked out of the room.

Carlisle just shook his head but followed after Edward. They needed to speak with Alice because of the fact that she had kept something from them like this. If Isabella was given Lilith's powers then the only one who could defeat her would be the one with Anubis power. Shaking his head he pushed it aside and hurried after Edward because he knew that Edward was rather upset with their mate.

(3rd Person Pov – In the room with Alice)

Alice was pacing back and forth in her and her mates given rooms worrying about what was going to happen. She had seen that Marcus and Aro were already in the south and would soon find out that Edward and Carlisle were going behind their backs to the Father of the Vampires. The Mother was already awaken and had given Bella her powers. Alice shivered as she stopped and wrapped her arms around her waist. She was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't hear Anubis enter her room. He smiled as he walked up behind her.

"Is there something wrong dear?" He asked brushing the short hair away from her neck.

Alice froze. "What are you doing here?" Why didn't I see or hear him? Alice was very scared. If her mates showed they would take it out on her. "You shouldn't be here." She moved quickly but Anubis smirked as he watched her run to the bathroom and slam the door.

"Don't worry dear," Anubis purred as he strolled closer. "I just wish to taste what has the two males in your company fawning all over you." He paused at the door.

"Leave before Edward and Carlisle show!" Alice screamed through the closed door. "They will kill you for just touching me."

Anubis laughed. "You think they can kill me?" He sounded unafraid. "I am the Father of the Vampires and only who can kill me can take my powers." He boasted unaware of the two vampires behind him with black eyes.

Alice on the other hand was curled up in the shower praying that her mates would show because if Anubis came into the bathroom they would find a way to blame her. Suddenly she froze when a vision came to her. It was Edward and Carlisle fighting Anubis. When she came out of the vision she could hear arguing in the other room. She didn't even decide to move when she heard someone scream as though they were dieing. Shivering she stood and tried to get a clear picture of their future but it was completely black.

"No, no, no, no." Alice whimpered as she knew that the end was soon. Whatever happened in the other room would kill them all.
