"Good job, Riley." I congratulated her. It had been a week since she had moved in with us, and me and Carlisle were helping her get control over her power. Brice was always at every 'practice', for moral support. She was a quick learner, and basically had it down. It looked like this would be the last practice she would need.
"Okay Riley, I'm going to have Jasper send as much anger at you as he can muster. Remember to keep in control. Jasper, if you will." Carlisle said. He was very interested in her power, and I could see why.
Jasper nodded, and within seconds Riley's eyes turned pitch black. She kept in control of the fire though, not even a spark came off of her hands.
"Okay Jasper, thank you." Carlisle said again, and Riley's eyes turned back to their golden color.
"Good job, Riley." Brice yelled, running up to her and giving her a hug. They looked so good together, like they belonged there. Which, they did.
Alice came running out of the house. "Bella, I'm bored. Let's go give you a make-ov-" She was cut off by a vision. One that I had, too.
It was the Volturi, they were planning on making a move. They were planning on making a move soon too, only about three months. I came out of the vision and Edward was by my side, he had on his emotionless mask.
"Carlisle, they'll be coming in around three months." I said quickly. He understood who I meant 'they' immediately. "We're going to need a bunch more than ten vampire's if we plan on winning. How many vampire's do you know?" I asked, the more the better.
"I know quite a few coven's that we could ask, I'd say around twenty-two. Come, we need to start making arrangements." And with that, we rushed towards into the house. Everyone was in the living room.
"Okay, we are going to need to split up, each couple is a group. Brice and Riley, you two are the fastest couple, you will find some of my nomad friends that live in America. Emmett and Rosalie, you will get the Irish coven and find the nomads in Europe. Jasper and Alice, you will get the Romanian and Egyptian covens. Me and Esme will get the Amazon Coven.
"Edward and Bella, you call the Denali coven, you two will stay here, you two will be able to keep control of the vampire's all together. Remember, they are not forced to come here, tell them of what the Volturi plan to do though, the couple's that are going to Europe, be careful. Don't go anywhere near Italy unless completely necessary. Everybody, after you have gotten your assigned covens to come along, or not, come straight back home. Edward and Bella, if you could also tell the wolves. We'll need as much help as possible. Everybody, not every couple, everybody take a cell-phone. Alice, if you see anything dangerous, call immediately." Carlisle finished his long speech. Everyone nodded.
"Everyone will leave tomorrow, Jasper could you please order everyone's plane tickets? Everyone else, go pack. But pack light, a back-pack would be preferable." Carlisle instructed again.
"Come on love, let's go call the Denali's." Edward murmured in my ear, I nodded.
Edward and I ran outside, he pulled his phone out of his pocket and dialed a number. It rang twice.
"Hello?" a voice asked, Tanya.
"Hello, Tanya. It's Edward." He said politely.
"Ah Edward, I've missed you." Tanya exclaimed. She knew he was married we visited them once a year, and she seemed to have accepted that well enough for me.
"I've missed you too, Tanya, but listen. The Volturi have decided to act out there plan, they know we are going to try to stop them and are coming to terminate us. We need as much help as possible if we are going to stop the Volturi from world domination. Would you and your coven please help us?" Edward nearly begged the last line. He was desperate to keep me and his family safe.
"Of course Edward, We'll be there as soon as is possible. We have also recently met a rather large coven, about seven, they are also vegetarian. I will ask them to help, too." Tanya replied, going completely serious.
"Thank you so much, Tanya. You don't know how much this means to my family." Edward said in relief and he hung up. Edward gave me a hug.
"Don't worry Edward, this will all work out, you remember the prophecy. I was created to stop the Volturi, which means we will win." I tried to reassure him, he nodded, unconvinced, and walked with me inside.
"They'll be here as soon as possible." I said, giving the information. I looked around, everyone had their back-packs on and were getting ready to go. I frowned, I wouldn't see my family in how long? Days? Weeks? Months, even? I looked over at my family, they were all getting their cell phones.
I couldn't help it anymore, I ran and gave each of them a hug, even Riley, because she was like family. "I'm going to miss you all so much." I said sadly.
Alice came over and gave me a hug. "We're going to miss you too. All of you." Alice said, still hugging me. Everyone else nodded.
"Okay, it's time for us to get to the airport." Carlisle said. "Bye Bella, Edward." He said giving us each a hug, Esme did the same.
"Bye everyone." Me and Edward said at the same time. And then they were gone.
I sighed and leaned into Edward, I just though of something. "A lot of the vampires have powers, don't they?" I asked with a strange mixture of excitement and weariness in my tone.
He chuckled softly. "You betcha." He said turning me in his arms. We looked into each others eyes for a moment, and then we gently kissed each other. We spent the next few hours on the couch, watching a couple of movies.
After about four hours, the doorbell rang, Edward and I both got up and answered it. It was Tanya's coven and another one which I didn't know.
"Hello Bella and Edward, it's so nice to see you again." Tanya said happily. I smiled.
"It's nice to see you too, Tanya." I replied. And let my eyes flicker to the other group and back.
"Oh yes, this is the Australian coven, well they travel a lot like you do, but they are all mainly from the Oceania area." Tanya introduced, that's when I felt the all to familiar tingly feeling.
The pictures started flashing behind my eyes. One could look at a human and tell if it would become a vampire or not, and what power it would have if it did, not very useful unless your power hungry, which he didn't seem to be. One could pick memories out, a power I already had. One could freeze time, very helpful. The last one could project a force field, also very helpful.
I opened my eyes, the entire Australian coven looked at me curiously. I just looked at Edward, I needed to get to training on these powers.
"Bella has the power of absorbing other vampires powers, she just absorbed your powers and now needs to train them. Let us get you settled in and Bella and I will start training her powers, anyone who wants to watch is free to." Edward explained. They smiled and nodded.
We led them up to the fourth floor, which is basically a long hall of guest rooms, and pointed out rooms. Me and Edward made our way outside when Tanya came down, followed by the rest of them.
"Bella, if you don't mind, we would love to see you train. We could also help with the training." The leader of the Australian coven, Aaden, stated.
"Of course, that would be so helpful." I said in relief, I didn't know how we would do this without Carlisle.
After a few hours of training and a hunting trip. Everyone split off into couples, apparently Tanya and Irina had found each found someone, too. Irina had met a guy named Laurent, while Tanya had met another guy named Caeden. Both from the Australian coven. That left one guy by himself. Me and Edward hung out with him, making sure not to let him feel like a third wheel. He was actually a pretty cool guy, he was changed around the same time Edward was, his name was Jayden. After a few hours, some people decided to go hunting.
Me and Edward took this time to call Carlisle and see how everything was going, everyone had agreed before they left that they would call Carlisle everyday with new information.
The phone rang once before he answered. "Hello?" Carlisle asked.
"Hey, Carlisle. The Denali and Australian coven arrived a few hours ago." I stated, giving information before asking for it.
"Australian coven?" We had forgotten to tell him.
"Yes, The Denali's had met them and brought them along for help. I got a few powers from them, they also helped me train them." I explained.
"Oh, well, that's great." He said happily.
"How's everything going with everyone?" I asked.
"Rose and Emmett are on their way to Ireland right now, should be there in about an hour. Alice and Jasper just landed in Egypt. Brice and Riley have met up with one of the nomads, Garrett, and sent him your way. Esme and I are currently looking for the Amazon coven, we just caught their trail before you called." He explained happily, everything was going well, good.
"That's great! Well, I'll let you get back to finding the Amazonians. Love you, bye."
"Thanks, love you, too." And with that he hung up. Edward looked relieved, I'm sure I had the same expression.
"Everything's going exactly perfect." I said, snuggling into his chest. He wrapped his arms around me.
"That makes me feel so much better." He mumbled into my hair. I turned my head and kissed him on the lips. I was cherishing these peaceful moments, because I didn't really know how many we would have left.
AN: Stupid Volturi. By the way, since Twilight never happened, James, Laurent, and Victoria are still alive. I need to know something from you guys though.
1) Should James and Victoria come into the story?
2)If so, should they be good, bad, or just annoying?
Thanks for the reviews! I probably will only have a few more chapters for this story, but I'm not sure, so you probably shouldn't listen to me. Please review! I love reviews like Sarah Palin loves to attack other people because they have a chance at winning something. Oh, wait, thats not right either. Jeez, what's wrong with me? :D
