Tell me what you think.

Chapter 21:

"What is he doing here?" Jacob snarled.

"I invited him, more than I can say for you!" I hissed.

"Nessie. I don't want to fight, just please can we talk?" he paused and looked at Landon. "Alone."

"If you think I'm keeping her from talking to you, your sadly mistaken, I've tried to tell her to talk to you. She refuses, you messed up."

"Jake, I have more important things to discuss other than you at the moment."

"Please." he looked straight into my eyes and pleaded with me

"Later." I needed to tell him about Landon.

"Come on, we have to tell them." I pulled Landon forward by his hand and stopped as everyone brought there attention to us.

Landon put his arm around my waist. "It'll be ok. I'll protect you. I'll do what ever it takes to keep you safe."

"She doesn't need your protection leech!" Jacob growled. I was shocked, I hadn't heard him use that term in so long, it slightly hurt. Landon was a vampire, and I was a half vampire, so did that mean I was a half leech to him?

"Jake!" I shouted. "Enough, or are you forgetting I'm half vampire as well?"

Jake raised his eye brows at me and then looked at me apologetically but he didn't say a word.

"What is it dear?" my mom said.

"Carlisle what did Aro say to you? Exactly."

"Why?" my dad said as he looked at me and Landon.

"What's wrong?"

Alice suddenly gasped. All eyes were now on her. "There coming." she whispered.

"No, not yet. They were supposed to give me time. They can't.."

"What do you mean they were supposed to give you time?" My dads eyes narrowed onto Landon.

Jacob was directly next to me and Landon was on my other side. I squeezed his hand for reassurance.

"He'll explain, but you have to listen, you have to understand." I pleaded with everyone.

"Understand what?" Jacob hissed beside me. He gently grabbed my other arm. Ready to pull me free from Landon at any second.

"They have my sister. They took her, they told me and my brother that we only had one option. One option to save not only her but our selves to." he looked over at me.

"What was the option?" My dad growled after the question was asked, reading it in his head.

"You didn't!" He went to leap at Landon but I jumped in the way and he collided with me sending me a few feet backward I landed on the ground with a thump.

"Renesmee." he hissed as he helped me onto my feet.

"Stop."

"How can you just allow this?"

"He told me the truth, when he didn't have to!" I touched his forehead showing him our conversation from earlier. every word and every detail. A low growl formed when he saw us kiss the way we did. But at that moment I didn't care, he needed to understand.

"I'm sorry all Aro told us was that we were supposed to make friends, find a weakness. Some way to get Carlie to join them."

"YOU WHAT?" Jacob roared and grabbed Landon throwing him a few feet in the air, he started shaking violently.

I screamed for him to stop. I knew he was close to changing. I quickly grabbed his arm to try to calm him, he shook me off throwing me roughly to the ground and a split second later he was his giant rustic wolf. Landon watched in amazement as I landed hard on the ground. I rolled over a few times. Landon's face went blank. Suddenly a frenzy of anger and rage played across his face as Jake came barreling toward him.

My family went to restrain Jacob. Quil and Embry were at his side trying to reason with him. Seth ran toward me I shook my head and told him to get Jake.

Jacob pounced and was swiftly on top of Landon I screamed. Jake suddenly went flying up into the air a few feet he spun around and landed on his feet. Landon was next to me in a second.

I heard a low whimper escape from Jacob as he realized what he had done.

"Jake. Calm down. Come on." Quil said grabbing his arm.

Esme had went inside and fetched a pair of Emmett's old shorts and handed them to Embry.

"Carlie. Are you ok?" Landon knelt beside me and placed his hand on my back.

The air shifted and I saw Jake was back in his human form.

He was in front of me within a second.

"Get away before you do anymore damage!" Landon growled through his teeth.

"Me? You're the one that sent the Volturi down on her!"

"I had no choice! They have my sister."

"Everyone has a choice! You just made the wrong one!"

"This coming from someone who is apparently in love with some one, but gets married to some one completely different. Looks like we both made bad choices. At least I am trying to rectify mine. Tell me Jacob, still married?" He spat.

"Stop it! Both of you. We have more important things to worry about than your love triangle. God always with the love triangles dog. I'll never understand it! Why anyone would.. Ugh." Rosalie snapped

"We need to know everything." my mother said walking toward me. Landon helped me to my feet and we told them everything that Landon had told me earlier. We told them that Max was out somewhere trying to figure a way around this big mess.

Nobody seemed hopeful.

Jacob sent Quil and Embry to tell the rest of the pack, and to inform Sam's as well.

We were inside all piled in the living room hashing out ideas, anything at all to help us.

"What if we just pull something like back in the old days? When Nessie was a baby?"

"They'll expect that, and if they bring as big of a guard as they did then, we could loose. And even if we win, it will be with some casualties are you willing to risk any of your family or friends for that?" Carlisle replied. "It would be a last resort. And we couldn't ask anyone to fight for us."

"I'm not going to ask any of you to sit here and fight for me either, or risk your lives."

"What are you saying?" Esme asked me.

"No." Landon hissed. "I told you already I wont let you."

"What if it's the only way?" I snapped.

"We'll find another way! We have to."

Everyone eyed us suspiciously.

I sighed knowing no one in this room would allow it either.

"Carlie wants to sacrifice herself, for the, greater good."

"Meaning what?" Jacob growled.

"She wants to either hand herself over, or well as she put it. If she wasn't around then there would be no reason for the Volturi to fight."

"Sweetie we'll find another way." my mom insisted

"Aro wont stop! He'll always want me, or something like me! He's wanted me since the minute he found out what I was! He wont stop until he gets me or kills all of you. I wont sit idly by and watch him destroy everyone I care about!" I shouted.

"Then we take the Volturi out."

Everyone looked over to Jacob. "Take the royal family out?"

"Your insane!"

"It wont work."

"Do you realize how much power they have? How many vampires with abilities far greater than our own they have collected?" Carlisle responded lightly

"I'm not saying we run up to there doorstep and fight every last one of them."

"Then what are you saying?" Landon asked coolly.

"Well he wants a fight, then lets give him a fight. don't let him surprise us, we surprise him meet him half way, away from forks where he wont think to expect us. We take the three ring leaders out."

"It's suicide. They'll bring the entire guard with them like they did last time. We'll be out numbered." my dad said.

"I'm telling you the only way." I stood up angrily.

"And I'm telling you I wont allow it." Landon shot back at me.

"Your all not seeing the bigger picture. If I don't, you all could die! At least my way you could have a chance. He could let you go." I whined.

"It's a risk I'm not willing to take."

"Landon. There is.." he cut me off.

"I think everyone in this room would be with me, when I say it's not an option."

I looked around and they all nodded.

I slumped back into the couch.

"Your just like your mother." I heard my dad grumble under his breath.

"How long Alice?" Carlisle asked.

"A week. They are just coming to check on Landon's progress, I don't know who there sending."

"What if its just Aro?" Jacob said hopeful.

"If we attack Aro, Marcus and Caus will surely avenge his death, and that's not a fight any of us could win." Landon replied.

"Well we aren't just going to hand Nes over like you were planning."

"That was before I met her! As soon as I met her I had no intention of sticking to there plan, but I still have to protect my sister!"

"And I have to protect MY Nessie!"

"We have to figure something out. Emmett, Jasper and Rosalie. You get in touch with all our friends from before see if any of them would be willing to do anything, tell them were sorry for asking but we have no other option at this point." Carlisle bowed his head low. It hurt him to have to ask this from so many people. I hated the fact that he had to. All because of me. "Alice you just keep a watch. Make sure we know everything there planning. Jacob." he shook his head and sat down next to me. "Fine Seth, go talk to Sam."

"I'm in whether Sam or the rest of them are or not."

"thank you." Carlisle said as he swiftly went up the stairs to his study.

"Nessie." Jacob looked at me as everyone went off on there own mission.

"Not now Jake."

"Fine, then just." he stood up and walked over to the table. Grabbing a box and handing it to me. "Take this."

"What is it?"

"When you open it, you'll know." he walked away. "Seth wait up."

I stood there and watched him leave the house with Seth.

My parents both got up and walked into the other room. Alice sat on the chair staring out the window.

I sat the box on the floor at my feet and opened it. Inside there were hundred's of letters. All sealed and dated. And all addressed to me. I there was a note taped to the inside of the lid. I ripped it off and read it.

'I never stopped caring. Every note I got of yours I wrote you back, I just didn't know where to send them. I love you Nessie, I always have. There's even one in here somewhere of me telling you what had happen with Leah. And a few weeks later when we found out about Billy. I never stopped, you may think I did but I didn't. I'm sorry.'

I looked down at the box speechless. He had wrote me letters, all those years I hoped he would but knowing he never could. I never imagined he would write them knowing he wouldn't be able to send them.

All of my unanswered questions, the unanswered letters. I held all the answers in this box.
