Footsteps drew closer and closer, unnoticed by the three who were still chanting, then figures broke through the tress and somewhere within me everything I had ever wondered fell in to place. We were saved, and I was no longer alone.

In a world where knowledge is power I had lived so long in the dark, unaware of who I was where I had come from and how, always wondering but never knowing, facing me across the field was my answer and it was better than I had ever dreamed of. Memories I had long since forgotten came rushing back and I knew that although I needed some explanations, everything was going to be alright.

Comprehension dawned on Edwards face as he read what was going on from their thoughts and he smiled as our eyes met. Then, in a split second I felt the world freeze around me and the chanting come to a sudden stop, the newborns stopped advancing, the smile froze on Edwards face and even the birds halted in their flight miles above us. I on the other hand was not affected by this halt, neither were the advancing figures, they carried on their graceful advance as though nothing had happened.

If this freeze had happened before I regained my memories I would have been beyond hysterical but now the smile remained on my face and my shoulders relaxed as I slipped out of James' grip and walked equally as gracefully towards the newcomers in the middle of the field. I was surprised at the sheered numbers of the group that was before me, some faces I knew but most were unknown to me. I was filled with happiness at how our numbers had grown; it proved to me the world was getting better. The face at the front of the group was a face I had missed without even knowing what I was missing, a face so familiar I don't know how I could have forgotten but I did. My sister.

A few minutes earlier I had thought I had no one in the world apart from the Cullens, now I knew I had my sister and the hundreds or thousands of my people (I didn't know for sure how many there were) on top of the Cullens, I would never be short of company . When we met in the middle I didn't quite know how to greet everyone, if it had been 500 years ago I would have fallen in to my sister's arms crying and laughing but now something was holding me back. People change a lot in 500 years and I needed answers as to how I had been abandoned for so long before I opened myself up fully to the people I used to know. So instead of doing what I would have done, I simply smiled at my sister, as she smiled at me, and said.

"Hey sis, long time no see." She smiled back and said.

"Missed you." And I could see in her eyes that she had but I still needed answers to open up to her like I could tell she wanted me to, deep down I knew I no longer fully trusted my sister. I did not respond to her statement because could not say I had missed her, I hadn't even remembered her. I did however use my powers, which I had just realised were so much more powerful that I had thought; to unfreeze the Cullens while making sure the three and the newborns stayed frozen.

It took no more than half a second for the Cullens to regain control of their bodies and join me standing opposite my sister with awed expressions on their faces as well as confusion on everyone of their faces apart from Edward I was sure he could read from the minds what was going on, though I knew he would not be able to read either mine or my sisters mind.

"How is it possible?" Carlisle wisped, eyes transfixed on the wings on my sister's back. In that moment I realised that saying I had some explaining to do would be an understatement. I wasn't sure how to start, I knew the Cullens deserved to know everything from my past, just as my sister deserved to know about my present. I was dying to know how I had been stuck with no memories for so long and what was going to happen in the future, I couldn't leave now as I was sure my sister would expect. My brain buzzed trying out different patterns for questions and answers but I couldn't make any sense of it, in the end I settled on just doing introductions and winging it from there.

"I think we should talk about possibilities and impossibilities later, for now I think we need to do introductions." I told him but as I said it I turned to everyone assessing their reaction to my suggestion, namely on my sisters part but no one commented so I decided to continue.
"Okay, well I'll start with myself, for anyone who doesn't know I'm Isabella Marie Swan and I just got my memories back." Everyone smiled at that. "I have an elder sister, Katelyn." I gestured to my sister and as I did so I heard the Cullens, even Edward take in an unnecessary breath of air, I knew I would have to explain that later.
"I have a found a family in the Cullens, a family a vegetarian vampires who accepted me even though I did not know who I was. I have not known most of them long but I have known them long enough to get a glimpse in to how amazing they are.
Carlisle is the father, he is an amazingly compassionate man who works as a doctor and is the founder of our group. He hasn't changed since we first met, years ago, he's still a determined man who always looks for the best in everything and cares for everyone. Next is Esme, Carlisle's wife, a mother to everyone and the amazing woman who glues the whole family together and makes the place we live in to a place we can call home.
Emmet is the big brother of the group who has always got your back no matter what and is also the family joker. He is married to Rosalie, she is very protective of her family but has a wall up around herself that she thinks protects her from hurt, I however think if she lowered it she might be surprised about how much easier she found it to shy away from hurt.
Alice is an unstoppable ball of energy, we may not have started off on the right foot because she cannot see my future but she cares deeply about her family and tries constantly to keep them safe and happy. Jasper is her partner, he is quiet and reserved because for some weird reason he doesn't think he deserves his happy ending but he is a valuable member of the family and his gift of being empathic, though it may sometimes cause misunderstandings or be overlooked, keeps the family together, makes conflicts easier to diffuse and gives another dimension to how the family sees each other.
Last but not least there's Edward, in my opinion the best man I could ever meet, the love of my existence and the only being in the world I could ever marry. Every day he has to listen to everyone's thought but he still tries his best to give them privacy. We were separated for too long to imagine, he had to live in a family of perfect matches and pretend he didn't know how it felt like to love and be loved, all so they wouldn't feel the pain he felt , he even hid it from jasper. I love each and every one of them for their own special reasons and I will always think they have the most beautiful souls in existence."

I looked at each of the Cullens individually as I introduced them, of course my introduction was much more than just that, it was a message, a message to themselves as a reminder of how amazing they each were but also to my sister silently telling her how important the Cullens were to me and telling her how she could not part me from them. Each Cullen's reaction to my words was different but I could tell my words meant a lot to them and Esme was dry sobbing by the end and the others looked close to doing the same. Edward just stood there still as a stature, I would have thought he was frozen once more if it was not for the single phrase that fell almost silently from his mouth, over and over again as if it was on repeat.
"Beautiful soul"
I walked closer to him and placed my hands on his chest just above his dormant heart, and looked up in to his burning golden eyes.
"Yes Edward you have the most beautiful soul. A soul that I can assure you has never left you, not even for a second"
My words seemed to dance around his mind for a second as I watched emotions flick across his eyes before he fell in to my arms, his body overcome with sobs of joy. I pulled him close and turned both of us to face my sister, waiting for her reaction.

"You're getting married." She stated her voice sad and I nodded slowly, worried about her getting upset. "To a vampire." I nodded again. "But you're an angel." At this I heard an intake of breath from around me; my sister had just confirmed what they had thought to be impossible. This time I did not simply nod.

"I'm not an angel, according to James I'm a fallen angel. I may have my wings back now but I will always hold the title fallen and as a fallen or an angel for that matter I can marry who I like." I told her matter of factually, I didn't want to hurt my sister but I was not prepared to lose Edward again.

"But Bella you need to come home, remember the plan. Bella we need you and you know that he can't come to he's a vampire." She pleaded with me but I could hear the tone of command in her voice.

"What plan? Last I checked I told you I would become a fallen and pay the debt, living powerless and alone on earth for 20 years, handing in my wings and my memories for those 20 years and living the life of a simple human. I chose to do that so no other angle would have to become a fallen, so that you yourself would not have to join the millions of other angels that would have to become fallen because of your war. I was meant to be freed after 20 years and then I would come back home and live a normal angel life with you, but I was not freed. I have lived here for over 500 years, I was alone and un-ageing, I knew I was different but I didn't know who I was. That was until I met my Edward. This is my home now and I will not let you take me away from the one person I could ever love because of an agreement you did not follow." As an angel it was wrong of me to disobey a command given by an arch-angel, in other words my sister, but I couldn't care less at the moment. I was a fallen who was in love with a vampire and my sister was not going to change that arch-angel or not.

"We had problems, I'm here now aren't I, we just saved your life. Please Bella, please just come home." There was the hit of command in her voice again but once more I defied it

"I'm not going back, ill still carry out my duties but I'm not leaving Edward or the Cullens, and for your information my life would not have been threatened if James hadn't known about fallens, he even had other fallens, I was supposed to be the last one."

"Like I said we have problems, we need your help Isabella, I need your help." The command was still in her voice but the pleading was getting more frantic.

"And like I said, I will help you but I will do it from here, with my family." I told her not giving in.

"Promise you will help us and I will let you stay." She gave in

"I will promise when you tell me what's been happening." I said suddenly realising I had no clue as to what I was promising to help with. I knew my sister and I knew how easy it was to find the wrong path in leading the angel community but I with all my heart is was not too bad and we were not on the way to another war. My sister nodded and said that she would explain but it would take a while, I smiled at her glad she was accepting my choice and asked Carlisle if it was okay to take the explaining back to their house as I knew the most important knowledge was still unknown to us.
