Edward POV:

For the first hour or so, the drive was silent, everyone's thoughts were even silent. It had started to rain hard, and everyone was staring out the window watching the rain.

After the hour of watching rain Jasper and Alice started to get anxious. Emmett and Rosalie were thinking about each other, it got disgusting, so I tried to tune their thoughts out. Carlisle and Esme both kept silent, just watching the rain, picturing home. Bella was trying to not think about what was going to happen, so she kept her thoughts on controlling her shield. Jacob and Nessie were getting some more sleep, they didn't want to be sleeping while we were awake in Volterra. Felix and Demetri kept their thoughts silent. Usually they had trouble doing so, but I guess they've been practicing a lot over the last century.

When we arrived in Volterra, we got dropped off near one of their new underground tunnel entrances. We walked in pairs, Felix and Demetri leading, Bella and myself right behind them, Jacob and Nessie behind us, Jasper and Alice behind them, Emmett and Rosalie behind them, and Carlisle and Esme in the back.

Felix and Demetri couldn't control their thoughts as well as before, so I decided to eaves drop and see if I could find out what they were thinking about doing to us.

Felix's thoughts were the easiest to hear so I gave all of my attention to his thoughts. Why are they going to let the Cullens learn so much? Why tell them their plans? They should just finish them right away. They're not going to kill us right away then. What plans though? I continued to focus on Felix's thoughts trying to find out what the plans were. Why tell them about all of our new members? They'll just be getting more time to live. If they take more then a few hours, I'm going to have to consider finishing them myself. Demetri, Jane, and Alec would probably help me. Oh my gosh wait, Edward can hear what I'm saying, shoot! I let out a chuckle when he thought that, no one except Felix really noticed. I smiled at Felix, nodding my head, letting him know I heard what he had thought.

Felix stayed quiet for the rest of the walk and Demetri did so as well. I decided I'd peak into Bella's thoughts, but her mind stayed focused on her shield. We walked through a few rooms, including their new waiting room for their 'guests'. Demetri went off in a different direction, Felix told us to follow him, so we followed Felix to Aro's small office.

Aro was sitting comfortably and still in his chair behind his desk. "Hello, Cullen family. It's so nice to see you all again," he said with a polite tone.

"Hello Aro. It is very nice to see you again," Carlisle said politely back to Aro.

"Come sit down," Aro said pointing to the two couches.

I'm going to start writing short author notes at the end of my chapters:

I'm sorry that this chapter is short, but I needed to cut it off somewhere, before I write anything else.

Hope you enjoyed!
