My laptop was faulty. The last chapter was written on my sisters laptop, but I got it reapired ! Whoop ! ! ! ! ! Thanks for all feedback. And guess what .. Bella and Aro will get back together soon! I'm just not saying when !

I dont own Twilight. Otherwise, it would have not ended...

Chapter 21

Starts off with the Rebels and Sulpicia

"What do you mean ' They're gone ? ! "the dark haired vampire shrieked, her hand pressing against the fine wood of her throne.They can't be...she thought

"I- Iam sorry , Mistress.. they disappeared during the night "

" And what? Were you all uncapable to see them during the night , Iana ? " Sulpicia hissed at the foreing girl. She knew every little English ; her accent showed she was one of the newborns from the East , one of the ones Calec had changed.

" N- no , mistress , we were unpreared "

" What did I say when you woke up ! I told you you must always be alert "Sulpicia shouted , making the coloured windows of the old abandoned castle crack. " I told you all that , yet you all disobey me ! HOw dare you ! Where is Xavier ? " she shouted at Iana ,making the newborn shake

" He is with the immortal children , Mistress " Yes, Sulpicia had aquired those as well. She had just about broken every rule

" Call him to me , child " she said .Wait 'til I get my hands on the husband stealing whore , and those who saved her from my wrath ...

Hands.

Hm... that gave her an idea

Meanwhile in Volterra

Everyone stared at Bella . What did she mean? Did she not recognise this room? Why had she adressed Edward , the man the Cullens knew she didn't speak or awknowledge anymore..Aro understood quickly , she had forgotten , the blood had erased her memeory. He only now served to hate the creatures Caius had almost hunted down.

It had erased her memory. Worse , it could mean that she might still love Edward.

Why am I bandaged ? Vampires dont feel pain , so why do I feel it. Why is there heartbeats in here ? Bella thought , looking down at herself with a frown. Why does everyone look so confused?

"Do you not know where you are ?" A cold voice asked Bella. She looked to it's owner; Caius. The blond vampire king, she though. He sounds as cold as he looks.

Isabella was reluctant to answer. She wasn't sure how to speak anymore , especially not to these people.

" No " she said finnaly , or what seemed like three seconds. Everyone stared at her strangley, well , everyone who knew Bella had stayed in this room and well .. all that followed.

" Bella , dear , what's the last thing you remember ?" Carlisle asked , looking serious. Bella closed her eyes

" I'm in your office ; Carlisle. I asked Edward to change me again and he did " she said , opening her eyes and looking to her vampire father " Why ? "

" We're in Italy Bella " Rosalie said " How come you don't remember ? "

" Leave her be " Aro said , his voice confident though he wasn't . Pain , loss , and the opposite of confidence. She'd never be his now. How could she be ; he knew the only way to get her now was to kill that perfidious Edward , but he couldn't. He couldn't , because he knew Bella would never forgive him. There was no way , he lost her.

He was gone in a second.

He ran through the castle , to his chambers where he could have peace , for a whie at least. He knew it was going to be a matter of time before Caius came here ; asking of why Aro had disappeared so suddenly. He should know , Aro wanted to be alone.

Alone.

That was what he always was , wasn't it ? He had power , he had riches , the worlds most powerful coven, but he was alone. He didn't have Bella , there was chance he never could. How could this happen to him , the confident, the indepentant one. How could he be brought down by one young woman ? Wheter she wanted to or not , she made him a different person. He knew if he was not to have her ; if this rebellion was to end and the Cullens were to go along with Bella , who still loved Edward , he would ask for death.

There was many out there willing to give death to Aro. He had many enemies ; the Volturi always had enemies. He wouldn't care wheter death was painful or not , he didn't care what followed.

His peace was interuppted as Caius' scent made its way into the main room , where Aro was seated at a dark mahogany desk , his eyes staring at the dark wood.

God, Caius thought ,he's going insane.The girl is killing him ..

" Brother " Caius made himself known even though Aro knew he was there. The smell of blood and murder is hard to miss , isn't it. Caius sat in one of the armchairs , staring at his distant brother.

" Aro " Caius said , finally getting his brothers attention

" What Caius ?" Aro responded , his eyes the darkest black as he glared at his brother

" Calm down " Caius said , sitting down at the armchair " I see your rather unnerved "

" Rather " Aro said , annoyed at his brothers calm. " Can't you leave ?"

" No , I cannot " Caius said smugly

" Why ?" Aro said " She has lost her memory of me , she thinks she still loves the Cullens boy , my life is already over , Caius "

" No it is not " Caius said. This surprised Aro , even though he barely ever read Caius' thoughts he knew what Caius was thinking most of te time. Once Aro was gone , Caius would take over. Perhaps that was why Aro was still here , if Caius took his place there would be chaos.

" How , brother ?" Aro but his head in his hands in defeat. Defeat , Caius thought bitterly. Something he hated seeing within his coven , something he had never felt.

" You still have a chance , Aro " Who ever thought it would be Caius reasurring Aro ? Always it was the other way around. " She might remember "

" Or not " Aro said

" You were so confident on the plane" Caius said " Where did that go ?"

" I didn't think she had lost her memory Caius , of all things! How would you feel if Atheandora lost all her memory and went of with a ridiculious fop ? " Caisu bared at his brother

" Don't even mention Athena in this " he growled , as Aro gave him a cold smirk.

" See , no one wants that " his cold expression remained.

At the other side of the castle , Bella , Cullens , Jane and Co.

" What was that all about ?" Bella said , cautious. What did Rosalie mean 'How come you don't remember ? '

" Nothing Bella " Edward said , suddenly sitting one the bed beside her

" Um.. why am I all bandanged up ? " Bella asked , trying to get up. Cue anxious looks from the Cullens , were they prepared to tell her all that happened.

"Rosalie , Emmett , can you please take Arianna and Renesmee to the guest room we were shown to " Carlisle said. Edward stood up , reading Carlisles determined thoughts

" Carlisle , no " he said . Carlisle looked at his son ; his first family member

" Why not Edward ? It's best if she knows " Esme said , looking at Bella. Bella looked at them all

" What do you mean ? "

" Nothing , Bella " Edward said , sending a small smile to his 'loved one' .

" Carlisle, Esme , can I talk to you guys outside for a second ? " Edward said , walking out of the room. The Guards and vampires that had been there disappeared along with Rosalie and Emmett. Only Alice and Jasper were left, they seemed to had faded into the background.

Bella looked down at her bandages. Her body felt pained , like she was ingured. She looked Alice , confusion overcoming her

" Alice , whats going on ?" Bella said , her voice quiet.

" I don't know if I should tell you Bella " Alice said, her voice low.

" Please Alice. Why am I bandaged up ? Why are we in Volterra ? "

" We're here ... because..."

" Its me , isn't it " Bella said " I've done something again , haven't I " Alice looked to her best-friend , her sister

" No , you havent done anything , silly !" Alice said

" Then what ? I can't go around asking anyone else questions , Alice "

" Bella, I can't tell you. You need to hear it from him "

" From Edward ?" Bella said , confused

" If thats what you choose " Alice said , turning to the window.. It was snowing outside. The signal to Bella , that something was very was changed on her birthday... wasn't she? September 13th , when she was changed.

" Alice " Bella said , trying to stand up. It was harder than she thought

" Yes Bella ? " Alice turned to her. Jasper sensed Bellas panic , nervousness. He sent her some calm

" Alice , why is it snowing outside ? " he eyes stared out the window into the snowy city of Volterra.

Alice gasped , biting her lip. That was something she couldn't make an excuse for. Bella stared at Alice , confusion in her eyes " Whats the date ? "

Alice closed her eyes. No going back now , she thought. She's going to find out ... wait , isn't that what I want ? Bella to be happy ?

" The 13th of December , 2012 " Bella gaped at her sister

" Alice , from what I remember , it was the 13th of September 2011 " Bella said , her black eyes staring at her sister " So tell me , Alice , what are you all hiding from me ?" Just then , Edward burst into the room

" Don't Alice "

" Don't what Edward ?" Bella hissed. They were lying to them , she could feel it. " Why are you all lying to me ? Whats going on? I want the truth , Edward !"

The truth.

So funny how something so simple is so complicated , and yet it is so rare. Truth. Truth , not lies , tend to bring out someones true colours.

She wanted the truth. And yet , Edward wasn't willing to grant her that simple wish.

" Bella , theres nothing to tell , love " Edward said

" Explains why its the thirtenth of December , 2012 ! " Bella said. Her emotions were haywire, Jasper and Edward knew that

" Tell her the truth , Edward " Jasper said in a calming voice. Edward turned to his oldest brother

" How can I tell her the truth , when I don't know half of it !" he growled. He knew if Bella found out the truth he would lose her , lose her power and lose her to Aro.

" Then help her remember , you bastard ! We all know what you're thinking ( A/n: Oh , the irony ! ) , we're not going to let you have your way !" Jasper said , anger coming off him in waves.

" Remember what ? " Bella asked , her death black eyes staring at Edward. The black was staring to clear away , making it look more gray.

" Nothing , love "

" Edward " Carlisle said " Tell her "

" I can't lt him to this to her .. " Edward trailed off

" Edward !" Alice said " Of all daft , stupid excuses , you bastard ! Jasper's right , you're not getting you way this tim !"

" Alice , language " Esme said. Alice looked at her

" Esme ! Do you realize how much this can hurt her ?!" Alice said , looking to her mother , the only mother she had ever known.

" Hurt who ? " Bella said , confused. One of her hands gripped the wall , supporting her.

" That is why we shouldn't tell her ,Alice " Edward growled

" No , Edward , let her find out when were back in Forks , why not ! Let her find out when she thinks everythings ok , let her find out when he is fed up of waiting !"

" He would never .. " Edward looked at Alice

" What makes you think that , Edward ?! You and I have no clue what he could do ! He's a king , Edward ! He can do what he wants , when he wants and its a matter of time before he snaps ! " Alice hissed

" Who ? " Bella asked. This was getting on her nerves ; they were ingoring her.

" He would never hurt her !" Edward said to Alice

" And that , Edward , is exactly why we should help him !" Carlisle said , his voice raised more than usual " Do you think he doesn't know of your plans , Edward ! He'll rip your head off in a second "

" Not if I rip his off first " All the Cullens stared at Edward as if he was insane. And from the thoughts he was recieving from his family , they thought he was too.

" Are you insane ! " Jasper said " He has a guard. He has a powerful coven , and you're saying you're going to rip his head off first? God , you are insane ! "

" Everyone , shut up !" Bella shouted " Who are you all talking about ? "

Bella finds out... soon :) I am evil.
