a/n changed some stuff about the Volturi so if you don't like change do not read….

don't own twilight, new moon, or anything associated with it….

Charlie had been putty in Alice's hands the moment she walked in the door and now here I was on a private plane headed toward Voltura, Italy. Carlisle had called Aro and told him that we would be headed out and Aro sent his private jet.

Everyone had told me that I had nothing to worry about. I just needed to speak the truth about everything and make Aro feel safe with the idea that I know the secret. Alice had already said that she had seen me as a vampire in the future but I was a few years older.

The nights that Emmet would spend with me, which had been every night since Christmas, we would sometimes flirt with the idea of me becoming a vampire. I knew Emmett wanted to wait until I was the age he was whenever he was changed. I was fine with the idea of being changed when I was twenty.

"Everyone we will be arriving at the airport in ten minutes. The sun is not shinning so there is no need for capes." The pilot said over the intercom.

"Emmett I'm nervous." I said as he wrapped his arms around me. The entire trip everyone had been informing me about the Volturi so I would not be too surprised when I met them.

Carlisle had told me about Aro's power to read minds but unlike Edwards he had to touch a person and could see more then just a moment's thought. Jasper had told me that Marcus could see relationships and how strong they were. Rosalie enjoyed telling me about Heidi who was the "fisher" of the Volturi, meaning she collected the people to eat. Rosalie laughed as she remembered what Heidi looked like, not forgetting to mention she was beautiful but not as beautiful as her. Edward decided to join in at that moment and mention her violet eyes threw off the look and he much preferred Rose. Esme had told me about how Felix resembled Emmett when it came to muscles. Alice said there was three more who had powers but weren't really that prominent. Emmett waited till last to tell me that Jane had the worst gift of all which was the gift to create pain into another human being. I wasn't really scared of the Volturi until he mentioned her.

(a/n I know everyone knows who has what powers but I just threw that in there to remind people who didn't want to have to pull out their new moon books to be reminded if the power came up in the story.)

With me now fully scared to meet everyone in the Volturi it was time for our plane to arrive.

"Don't be everything will be fine." Emmett said as he kissed me.

We got off the plane, got our luggage, and got into a limo. Emmett had told me that once we arrived if would be in only about thirty minutes before we would arrive at the castle.

It was around twilight when we arrived at the castle. It was the biggest castle I had ever seen or even thought about. It was extremely gothic looking and reminded me a bit of Dracula's castle in all the Dracula movies.

(a/n yeah I changed where the Volturi lives just a little bit…)

I laughed at myself making a fictional vampirace reference to a real one.

"What are you laughing at?" Emmett asked me.

"I was just thinking how the castle reminded me of the Dracula castle you see in al the movies."

"Only you would think that." Jasper said as he helped the others with our luggage, mainly to help with Alice's luggage since she carried the most with her. I always thought it was funny that even though she could lift them just as easily as he could he never let her. Alice always laughed at him and called him her Southern Gentlemen of a fool. He never seemed to mind the nick name that much when she said it though.

As we walked to the steps of the castle the doors flew open to reveal about ten vampires with blood red eyes. At first I was scared but then I felt Emmett wrap his arms around me.

"Carlisle. It is great to see you once again. Aro is so excited to see you as well as your family." One of the vampires said.

"Caius. I am happy to see you again. As for Aro it is always an interesting time when he is around." Carlisle said as he walked into the castle.

"Everyone has rooms and Gianna will show them to you." He said as we entered the castle. I guessed we were staying here for the week in order to get Aro feeling safe around me. "Gianna. Show everyone to their rooms please. Carlisle I will go speak with Aro and come to get you as soon as you get settled in."

A girl who I assumed was Gianna showed up in front of us. I could tell she was human from her eyes and how uneasy she was around everyone.

"This way." She said as she walked up a set of stairs. One by one she named off whose room was whose. Alice and Jasper were first. Second were Edward and Rosalie and then Carlisle and Esme. She waited till last for me and Emmett. "We have two rooms set up if you would like separate rooms but we may share one also." She said smiling at me.

"Can we share one please?" I asked timidly. Even though she was human I had no idea if I needed to fear her or not.

"Of course." She said with a smile showing us the last room. "I hope you have a pleasant week here." She said walking out the door.

We unpacked some of our clothes we had brought and had just sat down on the bed when we heard a knock at the door.

At the door was Carlisle to get us to take to Aro. We walked down three flights of stairs into what seemed like a library. Carlisle knocked on the door.

"Come in." we heard from inside the door.

"Now or never." Emmett said holding my hand. With him next to me and the whole Cullen family behind me I felt safe. Carlisle opened the doors to reveal an extremely pale male with white hair and blood red eyes sitting in a chair surrounded by books and papers.

"Why do I feel like I am in a principals office?" I asked Emmett with a gentle laugh. He just chuckled and pulled me close.

"Aw, Carlisle. It is so great to see you again." He said as he stood up and walked toward us. Carlisle bowed and stuck out his hand for a hand shake and Aro just smiled. "No its fine. I would like you to keep your thoughts to yourself."

"Thank you Aro. How are things treating you here at Voltura?" Carlisle said with a smile.

"The usual." Aro laughed as his eyes fell on me. "So this is the girl. She is very pretty Emmett."

Aro walked over to me leaning forward as to smell me.

"Thank you sir. I do believe so also." Emmett said as he bowed. I felt like I was suppose to bow but didn't.

"Do you mind? I hear you are immune to our dear Edward and would like to see if you are to me also." Aro said as he extended his hand. I smiled up at his request. Even though I should have been extremely scared Aro surprised me by being so kind and not forceful. "It won't hurt I promise."

I extended my hand and he graciously took it. He only held onto my head for a few moments before kissing the top of my hand and letting go.

"So very interesting." Aro said as he laughed. "Emmett do you mind if I call Marcus in here."

It was at that moment I got nervous. Marcus could sense relationships. What would happen if our relationship wasn't that strong? This was a true test for us.

"No there is no problem with that." Emmett said with a smile as he wrapped his arm around my waist.

Marcus came in through the same door we had entered from, looked at us for a moment and then shook hands with Aro. After that he just left.

"Sorry, for his hasty retreat. He is actually beating Heidi at chess and wants to make sure she doesn't cheat." Aro said with a laugh as he sat back down at his desk. "What he felt was incredible. You two truly have an amazing relationship. Emmett do you mind if I touch your hand?" Aro said as he extended his hand.

Emmett took his hand with a smile on his face. Aro held onto his hand longer then he had mine or Marcus'. The whole time he had Emmett's hand both his smile and Emmett's widened.

"La Tua Cantae. That's truly amazing Emmett." Aro said smiling at Emmett. He looked over at me with the same smile. "Bella, I hope you enjoy your vacation here. We are a having a festival in a week and we hope that you will partake in the festivities."

"I love festivals." I said with a smile.

"I see that you two truly are made for one another so we will discuss the matter at hand in a light manner. You know the rules about letting humans know about us but we can tell that she feels deeply about you and you the same so I am not worried. I will give you a visa, Bella. This is basically a time limit on how long you can remain human. Emmett, your memory says you would like her to he at least your age physically and I will allow that. Thus meaning, Bella, you have to your twenty first birthday to stay human."

"Thank you Aro." Emmett said as he picked me up and swung me around.

"You may leave now." Aro said dismissing us. "Carlisle I was hoping you would be up to a game of gene rummy."

"Aro, you know I always win." Carlisle said with a smile while sitting down at the desk while Aro pulled out a deck of cards.

Me and Emmett made our way up to our room. I was physically and mentally exhausted from the flight and activities of the day and he noticed.

"That went better then I thought." Emmett said when we got to the room and he gathered up my jammies.

"I thought that's how you thought it would go." I said confused. He had told me this whole time that everything would be ok and there was nothing to worry about.

"I know I told you that Bella but I was truly worried that he would change you at that moment. I just did not want to worry you." He said flinching. I was mad at him for letting me go in there so light hearted when things could have been very bad. "Even though the Volturi are usually very nice people when you don't provoke them they can be extremely dangerous if made angry. I think they were only like this because we came willingly. Also Aro and Carlisle are extremely good friends. Carlisle even got Aro to stay off human blood for a month and live on animal blood. Aro still has a thing for sheep though he won't ever admit it." Emmett said trying to calm me down with laughter.

I was calmed down. I was still made but things went great so I couldn't be too made at him. I laid down on the bed in his arms and within minutes I was asleep still fully clothed.

a/n

I warned everyone before hand that I changed some things.

I got to thinking about the Volturi in New Moon and I thought Edward pissed them off bad by almost exposing them and then with wanting to fight with them… so what would they be like if no one had done that? What would they have been like if everyone was willing? Aro seemed so nice when he was talking in the book and so I thought maybe that would be how the Volturi are like on good days...

So that's my idea and reasoning…
