Chapter 10 - the WAR begins

JPOV

"Things went as planned?" Caius asked.

"of course, the twit believe Renee so easily. Everything will go as planned from here" I replied.

"Good. Aro must not know of this. His decisions are being watched, they knew you would be coming just I told you. He must stay in the dark" he stated. I nodded "Yes, master." He gestured for me to leave and I did. Soon the Cullen's would be ash and all threats to the Volturi would be destroyed.

I sit here staring at the water in the river hoping for some sign to tell I made the right choice. I worry this is all a trick.

"It was" Alice said. I looked at her in shock. If she had known why did she lie to me. She shook her head. "I did not lie, Renee will join us. Just not as soon as I lead you to believe. Bella this is important, we will need her in the long run" Alice confirmed.

"Jane was behind this then or Caius. Marcus and Aro seemed to believe me easily, the others did not" I admitted. She nodded in agreement. "Caius sent her here, Aro gave the order on his behalf, he knew I would see. But I have been watching them all, that they do not expect" she told me.

"No they didn't" Renee added. I turned to see her watching us. Had Alice known she was there, how I did I not know. "it is her gift. She can go unnoticed" Alice said, she must have seen I would asked. "Yet you do not seemed surprised" I told Renee. She smiled, "I figured Alice was better than they gave her credit for. Jane does not suspect anything" Renee told us "She has already sent word to me."

So this was all true.

"This is WAR. I ran back to the house with them right behind me. Everyone had heard the entire conversation I could tell, Edward was posed just so that if need be he could take out my once mother. I placed my hand on his shoulder and kissed me gently. "Calm love" I whispered and he relaxed a bit.

I spoke louder this time, "They have made their first move sending Renee here to get to me, this means WAR. We must start preparing now" I told everyone but my eyes never left Jaspers. He was the solider among us and believe you me he noticed my stare. He smiled knowingly, "I will not let anything happen to you Bella, it would hurt my dear Alice too much" he teased. "You will lead us then?" I asked him. "I can train you all, teach you the proper way or war but it should be you to lead us. This is your destiny" he answered.

I nodded. This was my destiny. "We will need to start tonight" I told him, he nodded in agreement. Everything seemed to be in order, that was until Emmett reminded me of something else.

"What are we going with her?" he asked glaring at Renee. She cringed back, her eyes flickering around looking for a exit. "That I am not sure of" I responded " She could be of use, if she would be trusted."

Her eyes locked with mine and I saw into her mind and took hold the way only I could.

"Can we trust you?" I asked her.

"Yes" she answered.

"Why should I believe you?"

"I told you about Jane and Caius, why would I do that if not to help you."

"You would lie to make me trust you. Renee I need you to tell me the complete truth, when it comes time to fight which side will you choose?"

She did not answer quick like she did all other questions, she must not be as sure as she thought.

"I would fight with you. I gave you up once, I will not let them take you from me now" she answered. I let go of my hold on her mind, she had told the truth. I turned to Emmett then, " She is with us, or at least that is what she will choose when it truly matters" I told him.

I went to find Alice, she was on the roof.

"Alice, what do you see of the fight?" I asked her, we had not talked about it for a while.

"Not much, when I look sometimes I see Renee fighting with us. Other times she is fighting against us" she answered.

"and the outcome?" I barely whispered. She looked sad. "We all do not make it do we?"

"No, not without Renee. With her we all survive, without Edward and you will die" she told me. Of course if I die, Edward would soon follow the same went for me. But why was Renee such a big player. " She is hiding something isn't she?" I asked Alice. She nodded " From what I have seen yes, her gifts are greater than she lets on. But I can not see them until she decides to tell us"" Alice responded. I left her then. I needed time alone with Edward, if we would perish soon then I needed to take advantage of the present.
