Disclaimer: I don't own anything except for the plot (which I try really hard to make good for you guys)

Previously:

I looked up at Aro and the rest of the Volturi standing there with eager faces, grinning sadistically.

I then looked at my family who were standing there looking at me sorrowfully, I knew that if I sided with them and brought the Volturi over their heads then they would be even more troubled.

My decision was made…

BPOV

I looked at the floor afraid to look up; my answer was now plainly obvious to everyone.

I wasn't going to fight my family.

I was abruptly worried about Renesmee being here, because I could tell now that this was going to end up in a fight.

But I was scared aswell with Renesmee, Edward and the rest of my family here Aro could just threaten me with them again, and I would have to give in.

"Bella we shall talk about this later, Alec if you don't mind" Aro said indicating to the Cullen's with his hand, and I abruptly realized that Alec was about to use his power on them.

I could see the dark, murky mist that Alec's power created; start to move towards my family.

My shield was faster though, I flung it out and immediately relished in the warmth I felt from the people safe under my shield.

No one noticed what had happened until, Alec's power hit the wall of my shield, everyone watched the murky mist curl and slap trying to find a crevice or a gap, but there was none.

I could see Aro stare at my twenty foot shield half in frustration and half in amazement.

My family was also looking at me but, gratefully but I also noticed they looked scared what did they…

The thundering footsteps behind me answered my question; I turned to see Aro, Caius and Alec standing over me with murderous expressions.

"Isabella, take your shield down now" Aro demanded

My chin came up automatically, I didn't like being told what to do and I knew that I would regret it later but…

EPOV

I looked up at the shield Bella had created to protect us, obviously since Bella had been gone her powers have become, stronger and more advanced.

My attention was then alerted to the fact that Aro, Caius and Alec had cornered my Bella and we shouting at her to disarm her shield.

Her chin jerked up as she said no.

Jane growled and I managed to catch the gist of her thoughts, she didn't like that Bella got so much attention from Aro and she didn't like Bella speaking to her 'master' that way.

Jane lunged for Bella, who had shifted into a crouch to prepare…

"STOP, both of you now!" Aro shouted, almost immediately Jane stopped her attack, eager to stay in his good books.

As Aro was distracted I looked meaningfully at Benjamin, he nodded and knelt down stealthily pressing his palms to the earth.

A few seconds later a low rumble echoed around the clearing and the earth split perfectly between the Volturi and Bella and our family.

As soon as the crack appeared I shot forward like a bullet, snatched Bella up in my arms and raced back to the family.

As I placed her back on her feet, I looked at her hesitantly fearing rejection or anger or some kind of emotion that would hurt.

Before I could fear her reaction, her arms were wrapped tightly around my neck and she was hugging me, and for the first time in months I felt whole.

She was my other half, my soul mate, the missing piece of my jigsaw puzzle.

Words couldn't describe the emotions flowing through me at that moment, somewhere in the back of my mind I felt sorry for Jasper but all I could feel was the tremendous joy at having my love back in my arms.

I could hear her sobbing into my chest and I looked up at Jasper worriedly, was she not happy being back?

Don't worry as much Edward, she's crying because she's happy Jasper reassured me.

Her breathing hitched and broke at the same time mine did; we were so in sync it was impossible.

I couldn't help but subconsciously want t pinch myself, to make sure that all this is real.

"I missed you so much" she cried "I love you so much!" she said in between planting kisses all over my face.

I suddenly felt alive and fleetingly happy. My heart felt complete again.

We didn't have long to ourselves, and although I wanted to run away and lock us both In a room for a month, I knew Bella missed our family as well.

"Oh Bella, I missed you so much" Alice sobbed as she hugged Bella.

Alice's reaction caused everyone else to flock around us and hug Bella, although I kept one arm around her waist in an iron-tight-grip, I was never letting her go again.

Renesmee who had been struggling in Jacob's arms for the last fifteen minutes finally broke free and raced towards Bella, Bella dropped to her knees and hugged Renesmee tightly as soon as she reached her.

I could feel my throat tighten with the numerous emotions that were welling up inside of me.

"I'm so so sorry baby, I'm sorry I had to leave you, I didn't want to, I love you so so much forever."

"Momma I missed you so much too" Renesmee whispered through her tears.

Bella bent her face down towards Renesmee and kissed the tears away, they stayed like that for a few minutes just telling each other how much they loved each other.

We were all interrupted by the sound of clapping coming from behind us; Bella stiffened slightly and pushed Renesmee behind her, back into Jacob's arms.

And we all turned to face an annoyed yet sadistically amused Aro…
