Aww, thank you guys so much! Most of you didn't kill me for not updating, but some of you did complain. And I don't care! I'm not like people who say "No flames! They hurt my feelings!" Nope, I like anything that can make my story better. Although a complaint really isn't a flame....whatever!

Also, I think there was one person who said Happy Birthday to me. So, thank you, TofuPixie. I will be including you in this chapter.

Edward POV

I twisted onto the rocky path leading to my house deep in the forest, listening to the gentle hum of my Volvo, which I named Vicky. Bouncing along the trail I thought over the day's previous events. I had children. Beautiful, amazing children that basically hate me. Except Mattie. She was...well.....the one I felt compelled to the most. She was as beautiful as Bella, with her mahogany hair with glittering bronze on the ends. Her eyes forced me within, and it was hard to get out. The swirling orbs of color.... I can tell her eyes were the ones that changed with her mood. When she met me at the lunch table, they were bright and sparkling, yet darkening every moment; she obviously needed to hunt.

Walking into the house, I hung up my keys on my designated car key hook. I raced up to my room and fell on my back, staring at the cream colored ceiling. A strange feeling came upon me. It was like....well, it just made me want to close my eyes, and fast. So I did, and as the world closed around me I realized I was sleeping, but I had no time to figure out why.

Alice POV

I was sitting on my bed, talking things over with Jasper. We were really excited, even though I had seen this in a vision and hid it from Edward for a painstakingly long 3 weeks. Jasper wanted to teach one of them about his civil war days, which made me feel bad for the poor chosen kid that had to listen to that "riveting" lecture. Suddenly, I felt strange. My eyes were drooping, and I looked over wearily at Jasper, and saw his eyes drop. I did the same, and lost consciousness.

Emmett POV

Rose was sitting next to me, her long golden hair falling into the pages of her fashion magazine, and I was sitting next to her, sweeping back her hair. Out of nowhere, Rosalie leaned onto me and sighed. I saw her eyes flutter closed. I immediately felt exhausted, like I would feel if I was human. Closing my eyes, I settled into a deep sleep.

Noelani POV (Reviewer who said happy bday to me)

Creeping up to the house of the Cullens, I tiptoed up to the front door. Quickly turning on my power and mentally setting it to sleep, I waited for the sigh that escaped most vampires. Hearing it, I smiled, satisfied. I walked into the foyer like I owned it, knowing the residents wouldn't wake up until I left the premises. I surveyed the living area, looking for a perfect spot for the video camera. Spying mone, I strutted over and examined it. It was on a shelf far in the corner, bending with the sharp curve of the wall. This would do perfectly.

Calling a guard member named Fredrick, a large man whose power was to receive telapathic messages only if they are addresed to him, I requested he tell Amanda it was time. In a moment she was present, and she was clutching a hi-tech video camera. I perched it on the shelf, and instructed Amanda to work her magic. Her small frame quivered, and the video camera disappeared. I waved a hand through the spot and congratulated Amanda. This was her first mission, and her talent proved to be a good one. No longer could we see or feel the camera; it was invisible and intangible but it was still there.

Walking out of the room, I noticed a mirror. Admiring myself in it, I took in my elegant blonde shoulder-length hair. My blue eyes sparkled, as having some small human traits myself like eye color was just one of the perks of my power.

Leaving the Cullen mansion, Amanda and I started running back home.

Jane had better be grateful.

Edward POV

Waking up with a start, I jumped out of bed, my only thoughts on my family. Speeding into Alice and JAsper's room, I saw them curled up on the bed, Jasper slightly snoring. Rosalie and Emmett were the same in their room. Shoving Emmett, he woke up rubbing his shoulder. "Man, Edward. Didn't know you had it in ya." He saw my frantic expression and became serious. "What just happened?"

"We fell asleep. We were sleeping. I haven't done that in 300 some years." I told him. "Wake everyone else up. I'm calling a family meeting right now."

I ran downstairs into the living room. Sensing something wrong, I halted. The smell was off. Following it, it led me to a shelf in the corner. There was nothing on it but a 1970s Michael Jackson signed record. Still feeling like something was off, I shrugged it away as my siblings came into the room.

Rosalie spoke first. "Why did we all fal asleep?" she asked.

"I have no idea." I shook my head.

"I have a weird feeling the Volturi is involved in it." Alice spoke up. "I have a strange feeling, not a vision...just something like a seed of a vision, possibly?"

Discussing it, I finally looked at my watch and realized it was time to go hunting. The others agreed to meet us at the designated spot, along with Carlisle and Esme who had been at work and shopping.

Hopping into Vicky I started her up and revved the engine and burst off. Navigating by smell I reached their house. It was beautiful, pure white with lavendar shutters and a sky blue door. I could see Mattie leaning against the window, breathing on it. Getting out of my car, I watched her eyes light up when she saw me. Racing outside, I gave her a small smile, my thoughts still on the off smell.

Okay....so how did ya like it? Sorry TofuPixie- I couldn't think of what else to do with you in this chapter, but I think it turned out really well. :)

Okay, if you get this right I will feature you in a next chapter:

Who is Noelani? Who is she working for, and what is her purpose?

Adios for today,
