The Fight

"Okay I need you two to help me, actually you three." Edward nodded at Alice.

"What do you need?" Emmett was looking at Jacob with hungry eyes. He wanted so bad just to kill the trouble maker.

"Yes that is exactly what I need." Edward nodded, he wanted to smile, but not while Bella was around.

"Okay, so what do you need from me?" Jasper asked, he didn't look too happy about what Emmett probably had to do, and did not want to partake.

"All I need you to do is just make sure everyone is calm and is still having fun."

Bella was worried about the whole situation and what was going to happen to Jake,but she did have to admire the way Edward took charge.

" And you need me for..." Alice chimed in.

"A toast, I need you to do your favorite thing, and get everyone's attention on you. That way, Emmett and I can take the trash out." He looked down at the dog in his hands.

The plan was set, no one had a problem with it. Bella had a single tear slip down her face she knew what was about to happen, but there was nothing she could do about it. She knew that Edward would never be able to relax knowing that Jacob was out there always plotting and scheming to break them up. Bella Started to walk away when Edward grabbed her wrist.

"Bella." Edward started.

"Edward, I don't want to hear what you all have planned." Bella said as she wrenched her wrist free and stormed off to the front of the house.

Alice was about chase after her, but Edward stopped her.

"Let her go, make the toast."

"Edward?" Alice was confused, she saw Volutri, she saw them coming and so did he.

"How long do we have?" Edward asked.

"About 10 to 15 minutes" Alice said calmly.

"That's plenty of time to make the toast and finish the dog." Edward was done talking about this and the plan was off.

Edward, Jacob and Emmett were off to the back door and Alice was off to the kitchen to grab the cider and glasses.

Alice climbed to the top of the stairs.

"Excuse me everyone." Alice tapped her glass.

Everyone turned their attention to the top of the stairs at Alice, all talking stopped and the room went quiet.

"Thank you, now, I would like to start the toasting." Alice sighed, she really wished Bella would be here for this.

"Ever since Bella moved to Forks, Edward has been so much happier. The happiness I see in his eyes brings me so much joy and it makes me happy to know that there is someone out there that will show him as much love and devotion, that Bella has shown him already and will show him for as long as he may live. So to Bella and Edward, may you live long happy lives." Alice raised her glass and took a sip.

Everyone in the room cheered out "To Bella and Edward!" And took a sip.

Back Out side

Edward throw his final blow to Jacobs jaw and heard it snap.

"I don't know how you got so lucky, to where Bella cares about at all. So right now she is your lifesaver, because I am not going to kill you, I love Bella too much to hurt her like that, but this is a lesson to you. Stay away from me, stay away from her. Got it?" Edward asked in a low breath.

Jacob said not did anything he just stood there swaying. He had no idea Edward was so powerful.

"Are listening to me? I asked if you had it and you are not leaving until you do, I could stay hear and play our little game for a while." Edward said sternly as he shook Jacob.

Jacob was about to answer when there attention was turned to the front lawn, they heard Bella screaming. Edward let go of Jacob and took off toward the front, Jacob was right behind him, limping a bit but still he was getting speed.

When they reached the front they saw two of the Volutri, a man named Armand Black and a women Raven Black. Armand was holding Bella by the throat, raising into the air, while Raven was asking where the Cullens where. Bella was taking in short sallow breaths, trying to get Armand to release her.

"Let her go." Edward commanded.

The Blacks looked over and saw at least two of the Cullens and that is enough for now.

"Let her go." Edward said a second time.

"Edward, isn't it?" Raven asked in a silky voice.

Edward nodded his head, he knew the only way out is to cooperate.

"Well, Edward, I have a question. How hard is it to either change a girl or just kill her?"

Edward knew she was not looking for a real answer, so he kept quiet.

Raven walked over to Armand and looked at Bella and ran a finger down her cheek.

"She really is pretty, and I feel something powerful about her, it'll be a shame to kill her." Raven said, a smile playing across her lips.

"Raven, you know you couldn't kill her, she is too powerful. Anyways we were going to do it tonight. That is what this whole party was for, she has a life here and if we just changed her and left there would be some definite questions. So if you will just put her down we'll take care of that." Edward tried keeping his voice level.

"Oh, Edward, you are so funny, I know who you are and I know who she is. I know are you in love with her, if she were just another girl then you would have done it by now, but she is someone special and you are postponing this for as long as you can." Raven looked at Armand and gave him a nod.

Armand looked at Bella and smiled, he opened his mouth and was about to taste the sweet blood everyone has been talking about. When he finally took the bite, the blood was not sweet but tart and sour, Armand looked at his victim and saw that it was not Bella, but Jacob Black. Jacob had throw himself in front of Bella. Edward grabbed Bella and brought her to Emmett.

"Please, just get rid of them." Edward pleaded.

Emmett nodded and took off.

"Bella, are you all right?" Edward took her face in his hands.

Bella did not answer, but just cried. She tried to wiped the tears aways and saw properly for the first time, she saw Jacob lying on the floor trickling blood.

"Jacob!" Bella screamed. She tried to get up and run to him, but Edward kept her tight.

"Bella stop, you have to stay here." Edward pleaded with her.

"No, Edward, we have to help. We have to do something." Bella's tears turned to uncontrollable crying.

Edward felt so helpless, there was nothing he could do to comfort her, all he could do was hold her in his arms. Edward looked up and saw Emmett running over.

"Will you help me? We need to burning the bodies."

Edward nodded.

"Bella, I need you to stay here no matter what, can you stay here?"

Bella nodded.

So many thought were racing through Bella's head, but one stood out. What is going to happen to Jacob?

After about a minute, Edward called for her to met him by Jacob's body. She came running over and knelt before Jacob, his eyes were closed and body was still, Bella thought he was dead, but Jacob mustered the breath to say his final words.

"Bella, I love you. Always be safe." With that Jacob was gone.

"Edward, do something." Bella commanded.

"Bella there is nothing I can do, I would be able to suck out the venom but, werewolves heal extremely fast and the wound is already closed. I am sorry." At this point and time her truly was.

Bella sobbed into Jacob's dead body for about five minutes before Edward picked her up. They went to the back and brought her back into the house, and up to his room, where Bella sunk into a deed sleep.

Edward went back downstairs to the party, it was amazing that it was still going on, that no one knew that two vampires just tried to kill Bella and that Jacob Black was dead. But I guess when you are normal, you have that luxury.
