Author Note-

Okay I know it has been FOREVER since I up-dated, but then I realized why it is taking me forever to up-date...I am no longer interested in this story...so I decided that this is just going to be the last chapter.

I know, some of you are going 'WHAT!' but I didn't want to delete this story, and I didn't want to put it on hold, so this is the ending. I know it is rushed but I knew that it was this or leaving you guys in the dark. So I hope you guys understand my decision.

Chapter 9:


Edward's P.O.V-

There standing in front of me was...Ariana.

"Ariana." I whispered.

Ariana had glossy golden blond hair, she was 5'10, had a thin body, but perfect curves. She had the pale skin, and angel face. But her cool, icy blue eyes made her stand out more as a vampire.

"Hello Edward." her voice was just as seducing as it had been in 1918.

"May I come in." she asked. I opened the door wider and she stepped in lightly.

"What are you doing here?!" I hissed out. She just turned to face me.

"Why, I'm here to get back my husband." she spoke. I growled. Bella rushed over to my side.

"Edward, isn't your husband." she said coldly. Ariana simply let out a laugh.

"Of course he is, he proposed to me in 1918 a moth before he fell ill." she hissed out at Bella. I growled at her, then did I see her ring finer. There on her finger was one of the rings my mother owned. She told me to give it to the women I loved. I instantly froze.

"Ah, so you remember this ring." Ariana showed off her ring. "It was Edward's mothers, well one of hers." she continued.

"I am not married to you Ariana, I am married to Bella now." I growled out I wrapped my arm around Bella's waist. Something flashed through Ariana's eyes but disappeared quickly.

"Hm...it seems that you have found a new lover. No matter I am still married to you, and there is nothing that you can do about it." she spoke her words cold and hard.

"Ariana that was a long time ago...Bella is my new wife." Edward spoke. Then light footsteps where coming from different sections of the house.

"Who the hell is this?" Rosalie exclaimed. By now everyone was gathered around us.

"Ariana." Carlisle whispered. Ariana merely smirked,

"Hello Carlisle it's good to see you again." she said.

"Sweetie who is this?" Esme asked Carlisle.

"Honey, this is Edward's...um...his..." Carlisle couldn't even finish the sentence.

"I'm his wife, well his original wife." Ariana spoke with a matter of fact tone. Everyone gasped.

"I'm sorry to tell you this Ariana but Edward is married to Bella now." Alice said.

"No he isn't." she spoke I could tell she was losing her cool.

"Hm...no see he gave her that ring." Alice spoke, as she pointed to my ring finger. Ariana stared at it, then she lost it.

"Edward! How could you! You promised me that ring! You said that once we got married you would give me your mothers true wedding ring, not this stupid promise ring!!" Ariana screamed out at him. Then her ice blue eyes began to glaze over turning them into the color of glaciers.

I instantly began focusing on creating a shield in front of everyone. I knew that this was bad.

Ariana let out a shrill cry, and instantly lightning began bursting out of her. My eyes widened her ability was to manipulate lightning! She began blasting the lightning everywhere, she was unstable. I knew that everyone was safe, because the lightning that would hit them instantly bounced off and hit the walls or hit furniture.

Everyone gathered around Edward and I, and I simply made as bubble around us.

"what are we going to do?!" Emmett asked.

"She is crazy!" Alice spoke.

"Bella can't keep this barrier forever, we need to do something." Edward said. Then I knew what I had to do. I knew that it was going to take the last ounce of energy I had, but I had to do it to save my family.

"You guys stay right here." I said as I walked over to Ariana. But a cold hand grabbed my wrist.

"Bella, what are you going to do?" Edward asked cautiously, then Alice gasped. Edward's eyes widened.

"Edward, I have to, I can't hold this barrier forever, I need to stop here." I said. I knew I couldn't look him in the eyes to see the pair of warm loving topaz eyes. Edward tilted my chin up so that I had to look at him. His eyes where pleading, they held sarrow. I touched his cheek,

"Edward, I love you." I whispered and kissed him. I ran out of my barrier closing it behind me.

"YOU!" Ariana screamed, more lightning began crashing down. I closed my eyes, blocking out everything. I had to do this. I focused, I thought of a box, a box that contained Ariana.


Edward's P.O.V-

Bella stood there concentrating. Then I could see it, it was a crystal like blanket, that began to slither up and creating a box. Ariana looked around her like a wild cat, she held up her hands and lightning shot out of them trying to break the barrier that was containing her. It was like a bubble, it would stretch when the lightning it but still keep it's form.

Then the barrier began to get harder, it looked like ice had just slowly been put on the box. Ariana was furious she tried even harder lightning erupted inside of the translucent box, it was now just a blur of blue light. My eyes widened.

"Ariana STOP!" I yelled out. I knew that if she kept this up she would die. I didn't want that. I didn't want anyone to die.


Bella's P.O.V-

I knew she was trying to break through. I forced my mind to also harden on the inside, so it was like diamonds covering it. I opened my eyes to see a horrible sight.

You couldn't see Ariana all you saw was a ball of blue light. Then my barrier crack. NO! It began to crack even further, until blue light seeped out of the bubble. I ran in front of my family held out my hands and formed a shield, I would protect everyone.

Then the prison shattered and it was like a nuclear bomb just went off. Everything was destroyed, I couldn't even hold up the shield. We where all scattered about. I stood up on shaky legs. It was incredible.

Where the house was, now was replaced by a huge crater, the house was completly destroyed. I knew that Ariana had deteriated, her power had caused her to blow up from the inside out. I tried taking a step closer, but my legs gave out. I was about to fall on my face when a pair of arms wrapped around my waist.

Edward held me in his arms. He was my shield.

He carried me back to where the rest of the family was.

"So who wants to go to Switzerland?!" Alice shouted out. Everyone laughed.

"Bella?" Edward asked. Everyone was silent. I grinned up at my only true love.

"Switzerland sounds...perfect." I said. It was the day of a new beginning.
