A/N. To all those who have seen New Moon, I hope you enjoyed it. To everyone who wants to see it go soon. It is so much better in theaters, well I'm guessing. I'm writing this on Monday so it won't be out for another few days. Anyways I hope you enjoy your treat! After this week I think I may jump back down to two chapters a week. If I follow my outline the story should be done in less then a month, which is what I am aiming for.


Blind- Korn

Are you ready?!

This place inside my mind, a place I like to hide
You don't know the chances. What if I should die?!
A place inside my brain, another kind of pain
You don't know the chances. I'm so blind!

Another place I find to escape the pain inside
You don't know the chances. What if I should die?!
A place inside my brain, another kind of pain

You don't know the chances. I'm so blind!

Deeper and deeper and deeper as I journey to
live a life that seems to be a lost reality
that can never find a way to reach.
My inner self-esteem is low.
How deep can I go in the ground that I lay?
If I don't find a way to see through the gray that clouds my mind.
This time I look to see what's between the lines!

I can see, I can see, I'm going blind...
I'm blind


Secrets Revealed

Edward's Point of View

Time really does fly when you are having fun. Its already the end of January, and Bella seems to grow bigger by the minute. Rose won't let Bella out of her sight and they spend so much time together, I am starting to feel lonely.

My melodramatic thoughts were interrupted when I heard a knock on the door. I groaned, and headed downstairs where the rest of the family was gathering. We were not expecting visitors, so whoever this was probably brought bad news.

Carlisle opened the door and I hissed as soon as I saw the members on my doorstep. Their red eyes caused me to hiss and pull myself into a defensive crouch. Rose standing behind me pulled bella behind her and then crouched infront of her. Why she crouched I don't know. Rose's head was now level with the middle of bella's belly. To me it would have made more sense to remain standing, but then again I'm not the sensical one in the family. That honor belongs to Carlisle.

"Aro, Marcus old friends, to what do I owe this pleasure?" Carlisle asked the two red eyed, human killing, bloodlust crazed murders on our front porch. That may have been mean, o well.

Aro spoke,"Carlisle, it is an honor to meet your family. We have heard much about them from other vampires in this area. We are here to offer a treaty and see if we can adapt to your lifestyle. Things are not so good back home."

"That makes little sense, Aro. Are you sure you are not here to kill off my family." Carlisle remarked causing Aro and Marcus to chuckle.

"No dear friend. We are simply looking for a new way to challenge ourselves. Life gets boring in a city where you are treated like a god. I want to experience something new and exciting, now who are all these lovely vampires."

Unfortunetly at this moment Ryan came running in with a blood pop in his mouth, his eyes changing color swiftly. I immediately heard Aro thoughts about demolishing the little boy. Ryan thank heavens knew what to do, and he ran to shake Aro's hand. "Aro one of the three rulers, it is an honor to meet you and an even greater pleasure to be allowed to live. I am half human, not a changed child. I hope you can tell this by my heart beat and skin temperature. My mother is Bella and my father Edward. Please, grant me my life and you surly will not be disappointed." Ryan spoke with the power of a leader, a commander. He was able to shell shock a vampire and grant himself life. This boy would be dangerous if he ever turned his power of persuasion on the family.

"I wouldn't dream of exterminating you. Now may you introduce me to the rest of the family." Aro spoke directly to my son.

"The blonde female is Rosalie, behind her is my mother Bella, next to them is Emmett the tall one, Alice and Jasper are on Bella's other side, and my grandmother Esme just walked into the room. Bella, though human ,is not threat to our kind. She will be changed in time. First she is going to carry a child for Rosalie, and then a brother or sister for myself. I know that you came alone, and if the thought of destruction even crosses your mind I will send my family on the two of you. I have yet to show you any of my other gifts Aro, and trust me *friend* I will not hesitate to use them." Aro had been blocking his thoughts from me, o hell this means that Ryan is much more powerful then we thought.

"Ryan, what are your gifts?" Aro asked curious. Bad idea creepy vampire guy, bad idea.

"You do not need to know, as I will never join you, or your band followers, I make my own decisions, and as we speak you are incorporating me into one of your plots. I am not willing, nor is anyone else in this room." Normally Ryan acted like an intelligent child, nevr like this though. He was staring at him, flames jutting from his fingers. When I looked back to the flames however they were gone. My son was starting to scare everyone in the room. He was standing up to the head of all vampires, threatening him. No child vampire or not, would ever dream about standing up to Aro. "Also if you ever think about using humans to produce vampire babies, I will hunt you down and kill you myself. I am not generous when it comes to taking away free will. My mother is not hypnotized. She chose to have these babies."

"I see," Aro said with a slight crack in his voice. "I shall revise my original reason for coming here in that case. I think that we should hunt first and then discuss the reason for me being here. First the real one and then the reason it has changed too. Please forgive me for the excess stress Mistress Isabella, you surely are a delight."


While the rest of the family hunted I stayed behind with Bella and Ryan. I shot him curious glances the entire time, but he never showed any signs of being anything but normal. It was unlike him to stand up to anyone like that, normally he respected all authority. It frightened me that flames shot out of his fingers, and he was able to break through Aro's mental block as easy as he did. If he could do this to one of the strongest vampires in the world then what could he do to us?

I heard the toughts of my family as they entered the garden, "Bella, love please go upstairs and get some sleep. I will tell you anything that happens in the morning. You need your rest." She agreed and headed upstairs. Once she was asleep I quietly called my family back in the house.

We sat around the dining room table for our family discussion. I saw Ryan giving Aro death looks and smiling at Marcus, apparently Marcus was just along for the ride. He normally was.

"I am sorry about my intrusion earlier, please forgive me. I am sure you wanted to know the reason behind us visiting you and hope we can convince you of our change of heart." Aro spoke causing Ryan to hiss menacingly. My son was scaring me. Aro glared at Ryan, but grudgingly continued. "We originally visited to recruit the family to our coven. If you had been unwilling to join we would have later come back to massacure the entire family." Everyone hissed, now I see why Ryan was so mad. "We now see that it would be a great loss to our world to loose such a large and talented coven by our own hand. We feel that eventually you will come to see from our way of thinking and join us."

"Now that I have told you our original reason, I would like to share our new one. This is the reason why we are choosing to stay. After Ryan told us off, Marcus and I came to the conclusion that it is Casius who has been controlling our thought prosess. We wish to stay here until we are able to come up with a plan to dispose of him and anyone else who supports his cruel beliefs." Ryan finally smiled at him in aknoledgement.

"I know you are telling the truth. However it is up to Carlisle to decide if you are welcome in our home." Ryan told him, for the first time since the Volturi arrived, Ryan was acting like himself.

"Aro, Marcus to live with us you must adhear to our way of life. No human meals for you, and you must also treat our family with respect. If any of these rules are not met you must leave. You may stay as long as necessary." Carlisle wanted to get reacquainted with his old friend now that he knew no one was out to rip him to shreds.

"Thank you Carlisle, I am sure that you will not be disappointed." Marcus spoke.


I hope they keep their word, if not I am going to have to kill me some world leaders. Ryan smiled at me and nodded. I wondered what his powers were, he said he had more then we knew about, but he wouldn't say what they were. Maybe I could get them out of him later. He shook his head at me. I thought I had been blocking my thoughts, what the fudge?

"You are dad. I can just see through the thoughts you are using to distract me, I have always been able to do it. The only person I can not hear is mom. She has a powerful shield surrounding her at all times and she will only be able to control the shield after she is changed." I gasped in shock.

"How do you know this?" I needed to hear this.

"It is a part of who I am. I know things I shouldn't know at times ok. I do not want to be questioned about my abilities because I am not some toy used for studying. We will find out in time what I am, until then be patient. And no I am not all vampire. Please drop it. Alice doesn't know I know what is in the future."

With that he ran to bed. The kid was getting more and more confusing everyday.


End Notes- I hope you enjoyed. Aro and Marcus will not cause any problems in this story, I like them to much to do so. I guess I have a thing for men in power. LOL.
