So here's chapter 13. Hope you like it, and thanks for the reviews. I'll have the next chapter up soon.

Ella POV

Aro's teeth barely broke through the skin before Demetri interrupted. "Stop! This isn't right." The whole room stared at him in bewilderment. Aro removed his cold teeth from by skin, without a scratch to spare.

"What are you saying!?" Jane scowled. She was infuriated by Demetri's disruption. "This is what we've been waiting for. Revenge against the Cullen's. Payback for all the rules they've broken. Changing their daughter is the best way to do that. It will knock some since into their brains."

"I don't care, Jane. Ella's only human. She shouldn't be punished by her families actions." I sighed, rubbing my soar neck. This should buy about five minutes.

"No, Demetri! This child is far from human. Human's don't have the power to knock you ten feet in the air. Ella is just like her sister. Physically she's human. But on the inside, she's possibly the most powerful vampire in the world." I smiled by Jane's... Compliment. The whole room nodded by Jane's words, in utter agreement. I sat up on the table as they continued to argue, and rubbed my shoulder. This stone table was painful.

"Ella doesn't deserve any of this!" Demetri hissed through his teeth. "I regret ever being apart of this plan!"

"I agree." The whole room stared in shock at Felix. He had been so quite in the corner of the room, that none of us noticed him.

"Not you too, Felix!" Jane growled. Alec looked ready to grab his sister if she prepared to attack. She was already in a crouch ready to pounce.

"Let's stay civilized now. There's no reason to fight." Aro pleaded grabbing Jane's shoulder. She looked ready to tear Demetri and Felix to pieces. She glanced up at Aro and sighed, straightening into a formal posture.

"Forgive me Aro." She whispered then turned back to me. Her red eye's blazed with fury, "Let's try this again." I shivered and fell off the stone table onto my tired feet. Jane growled at my action and looked over for Aro's help. He was going over options in his head, and ignored Jane's furious eyes.

"Aro!" She growled, waiting for him to look up. He didn't budge, which made her stomp her foot childishly. Then she turned to Caius and Marcus on the other side of the room. They both stood speechless, not meeting her gaze. It was so shocking when she suddenly charged at me. I backed away screaming as she tried to grab me, but I was torn off the ground unexpectedly, and flying through the dark tunnels before she could leave her mark.

"Demetri!" Jane's furious yells flowed through the dark tunnel, making a shiver run down my spine. I was being rushed down the hall in Demetri's arms, and I leaned deep into his chest wanting this nightmare to end.

"We have to get her out of Volterra." I looked up, shocked to see Felix running beside Demetri. We were on the back roads of Volterra by the looks of it, and it was so dark I was sure nobody could see our rushing features. I hoped their was a gate nearby as we neared one of the walls of Volterra, but when we jumped almost thirty feet in the air all hope was gone. We flew for a time of four seconds, before Demetri lightly planted his feet on the ground. He never stopped though, taking off into the dark plains of Italy.

I shook from the previous fall and moaned. What's next? A giant truck flying into me. I shuddered by the thought.

"Ella! Get behind us." Demetri growled, planting me on the ground, and pushing me behind him and Felix. 'We're going to fight.' I protested, but they ignored me. Then Jane arrived across the field. From the small moonlight I saw her red eyes. Both burning with rage. She snarled at me, and hissed, "So you've got guardians now. Well we'll see how long they can protect you."

I felt Jane using her talent as the feeling of it blasted through the air shooting towards Demetri and Felix. It's agonizing attack slithering to their brains. I closed my eye's placing a hard wall between Jane and us. I felt the impact as her attack bounced against my wall, but I blocked it. Protecting the two people who seemed to actually have a heart. She let out a growl furious, 'I hate it when you do that!'

She was suddenly running towards me, hissing in her head, 'I'm going to enjoy this.' But before she got close, a black figure smacked into her , and caused them both to tumble to the field. "Don't touch her!"

"Dad?"

Edward POV

It was so strange when we got to the tunnels entrance. There was a fresh trail of Ella's scent, heading towards the walls of Volterra. Had she really escaped?

"Edward..." That familiar voice appeared and we were shocked to see Aro suddenly at the entrance of he tunnel.

"What have you done to her!" I growled, tightning my fist to keep from destroying this man once and for all. Alec appeared and his eye's were full of sympathy. No. We can't be to late.

"Demetri and Felix took off with her, after rebelling against our plans. Jane took off after them, planning to change Ella on her own. You still have a chance to save her though. They headed east, and-" Bella cut Alec off.

"Why should we listen to you!?" Bella growled. I grabbed her arm restraining her. Aro sighed and nodded at Bella, then turned to me, 'I'm so sorry Edward. I was arrogant, and selfish. Demetri was right to help Ella. Forgive me Edward.'

I was frozen by Aro's words. I couldn't ignore his apology, but I refused to except it.

"You said they went east?" I asked, staring back down the ally.

"Yes. If you want to make it in time, you should hurry. Jane's furious and I have every intention she wants to kill her."

"Thank you Aro." Carlisle said with sincere appreciation.

"I'm very sorry Carlisle." Aro whispered, then disappeared into the darkness.

"Esme and Renesmee, stay here and wait for the others. Me, Edward, and Bella will get a head start." Carlisle took off into the darkness, and me and Bella followed swiftly behind. Bella took my hand unexpectedly, and gripped it tightly. I returned the gesture as the three of us flew over the wall of Volterra. When we hit the ground we continued on the trail of Ella's scent. I heard Demetri and Felix's thoughts in the distance.

"Were close." I growled, and sure enough we came to a field. Ella stood behind the crouched Demetri and Felix with Jane about thirty feet away. She was furious as she stalked around Demetri and Felix, growling in fury. 'I'm going to enjoy this!' She then charged at Ella and I charged at her. She saw me coming and snarled spitting venom as she continued toward Ella. I thrust my body toward her and pulled her to the ground. We fumbled about twenty feet away, "Don't touch her!" I growled, then threw across the field.

She caught herself on her feet and charged at me furiously. Demetri and Felix suddenly arrived grabbing hold of her. "Edward! Get Ella out of here." Felix hissed throwing Jane across the field.

I hesitated, "Go Edward. We'll take care of Jane." Demetri said furiously. I ran back to Ella ignoring the growls from behind me. She was being held by Bella and Carlisle when I arrived. "Dad!" She ran into my arms, deep in tears, then froze. I was confused at first, till I heard him. "Enough you three!"

Alec had arrived, along with Caius. I gripped Ella tightly as the two of them walked toward us in a tense manner. Demetri and Felix were by my side now. I shoved Ella behind us forcing her into Bella's arms. 'Calm yourself Edward. We were sent by Aro to speak on his behalf.' I never relaxed my stance but muttered, "It's okay. They just want to talk." Demetri relaxed but Felix muttered in his head, 'Ya right!"

Jane was back beside Alec now in fury. She took a step towards us but Alec's growl stopped her. "No Jane. It's over!" Alec sent a glare at his sister. She snarled furiously, but crossed her arms in defeat. Carlisle was walking forward now and stood between us and them.

"Jacob... You and Seth get Ella out of here." Alice suddenly whispered. The others had arrived, and were all confused when they saw Felix and Demetri on ourside of the field.

"No Alice." Ella moaned but Seth forced her onto his back, and the three of them flew into the darkness. I watched them as they went. Be careful Ella.

"Allright Alec. We're ready to hear." Carlisle said politely, but his voice was tense. "Caius." Alec nodded toward the pale vampire with snow white hair, pulling his furious sister back. Caius nodded and stepped forward,standing five feet from Carlisle.

"It's a pleasure to see you again Carlisle." Caius spoke with hesitation, but with great sincerity. "Aro wishes for me to give you a message, though. He doesn't wish for this to end in hostility, so just hear me out..." He looked over at me shooting me a warning. 'Attack and you'll regret.'

I ignored him backing up to take Bella's hand. She gripped tight staring off into the distance. "The rest of you can go. We can handle this." Bella looked at me and shook her head. I kissed her lightly and whispered, "She needs her mother." She smiled and nodded. She kissed me one last time, "Be careful." Then her and the girls took off into the darkness. The rest of us; Emmett, Jasper, Demetri, Felix, and I, stood behind Carlisle knowing the danger was over.

Ella POV

I was pushed behind my father, Demtri, and Felix and surrounded by my mom, and Carlisle's embrace. "Oh Ella. We were so worried." Carlisle whispered in relief. I fell deeper into their embrace as I heard Jane's growls not far away. Then the others were there. Jasper and Alice arrived first followed by Esme and Renesmee, then Emmett and Rosalie, and lastly two shaggy wolves. My family and friends surrounded me as Carlisle released his hold on me and walked towards Caius, Alec, and the vicious Jane. She shot a glare at me when she saw my eye's on her. I shuddered pulling tighter into my mom's embrace.

Alice suddenly growled seeing Jane in her head, coming around the family and grabbing me. My father growled seeing it through Alice and shot Jane a death glare. She grinned.

"Jacob... You and Seth get Ella out of here." Jacob barked at Seth, who soon was nudging me to get on his back. I backed away hesitantly, "No Alice." I moaned but Jasper touched my shoulder reassuringly, 'It will be okay. Go Ella.'

I moaned and hopped onto the huge sand colored wolf. 'Hold on, Ella.' Seth muttered, and I held onto his huge body as we flew across the field. I closed my eye's as a hard burst of wind hit against my face. The wind never seemed to stop as we flew though the land of Italy. 'It should be okay to stop now.' Jacob insisted and Seth slowed. 'You okay Ella?'

"I don't know." I muttered into his fur. He came to stop, and I slid off his back standing weakly. 'Your not going to pass out, are you?' Jacob asked a little concerned.

"No. I'm just tired." I sat on the ground and fell onto my back. I tried to listen to the thoughts mile's away but my mom must have spread her shield around the family. I sighed. "Can you hear them Jacob?" Jacob shook his muzzle, 'No. Were to far for my ears. Seth?'

'No. I can't hear either.' I moaned, "This is so aggravating. I have to know if their okay." I stood and began to walk in the direction we came. Jacob growled and came into my path.

'They'll be fine. All you have to worry about is staying out of trouble.' I growled and then sighed, "Fine." I sat back on the ground and Seth sat beside me. I stroked his fur and he sighed. 'Can you believe all of this happened in just two days.' I sighed too and leaned into Seth's muzzle, "Ya. Best birthday ever."

'Technically your birthday is long over.' Jacob muttered, stating the obvious. I chuckled and closed my eye's. I was so tired... Exhausted. That I suddenly dozed deeply into sleep. Praying this was over.
