Ruina Chapter 33 The End, a twilight fanfic

A/N: The song is meant to be from Jasper's POV. Please download the song, although the lyrics seem kind of sad, the chorus seems really upbeat and proud to me. I was listening to this when I wrote this chapter and I could imagine Jasper's watching Bella with a smile on his face during the chorus.

Also, this is the final chapter! As such, it is what I'd call happy and upbeat - less heart wrenching agony.lol

OMG THIS IS THE END!!

Fight The Sky: Gavin Mikhail

And you fight the good fight to win until the death over a thing that doesn't care carry any weight at all and doesn't even know it signed up for duty in a war that you created built with the help of those who didn't care but gave you tools supplies and dared you "build a place to hide your fear..."

You make them run and hide

7 Years Later

Bella's POV

So much has changed since those fateful days at the Cullen's residence. Jasper and I officially became an item and he happily moved to Italy with me. After much discussion, we had decided that it would be too hard to stay when much of the family felt broken-us included. We hated hurting the people we loved; the people we still love with some part of our hearts, but we knew that it was necessary for us to be together.

My new "job" also made it necessary to move.

On the flight back to Italy, as I cuddled up to my new love; I told him of the epiphany I had whilst 'sleeping'.

"It's going to be wonderful Jasper. I can see it! We can change everything!" I was so excited at the prospect of a new world...a new vampire world.

"How?" He asked incredulously as he played with my fingers. I sat up in my seat and looked into his face which held a large grin.

"I'm going to rule."

He grabbed me in tight embrace and whispered that he was proud of me. A smile broke out on my face as I pulled away to begin my explanation.

"I saw it all. There's so much to do Jasper. I don't know how we are going to do it but I want to try to get some sort of identification thing for vampires. A database for the Volturi or something like

that. I want to change the laws of the vampire world so that humans don't come to harm. Of course I'm sure there will be some slip up's but we can deal with that..."

I rattled on about my plans the entire journey home and as I sit at my desk in my mansion on the outskirts of Volterra, I'm happy and proud to say that my dreams have been fulfilled. Shortly after my return home, I spoke with Aro and he happily agreed to stay the face of the Volturi but under my rulings. He understood my hate of attention and was so happy that I had agreed to take my destined place on the throne; I think he would have agreed to anything.

The New Laws:

1. Each (new and old) vampire should report to Volterra immediately and sign a register/contract declaring that they understand the new rules and regulations; designed by the Volturi.

That law had been the hard to enforce. We received thousands of complaints in the first year about 'human rights'. That was ridiculous. I had Aro explain several times that vampire's cannot feast on humans and then claim their rights! They are no longer human! It was the second law we had the most trouble with however; trouble that continues to this day.

2. Vampires are forbidden to bite a human unless their case is brought before the Royal Court of Volterra and a decision is made contrary to the law.

That law is my favourite. Vampires are now forbidden from drinking human blood. We had to change a few things of course, to ensure that the number of animals didn't dwindle. We bought several large plots of earth in each city of the world and have placed men on each plot to breed animals. This is usually where hungry Vampire's go to 'eat' now, however, some occasionally prefer the hunt of a wild creature and feast in wooded areas. There are, of course, those who refuse to live by the new rules and regulations...these creatures are dealt with. I see to most of them personally.

There are some exceptions to the rules however. If it is a case of love then, the vampire and human couple are welcome to argue their case before the Royal Court, which consist of Jasper, Aro and I. Aro reads their minds while Jasper analyses their emotions to decipher their true feelings. If the relationship is deemed 'inadequate' for the change; we wipe the human's memory of his/hers visit and forbid the Vampire from visiting their partner again. This may seem harsh; however the cases we dismiss are usually due to a vampire's want of human blood, or the human's misguided ideas that immortality is a wonderful thing. I made sure to incorporate this ruling due to my memories of Edward.

Rules should not hinder love.

Jasper's POV

I am so proud of her. She has achieved so much in such a short amount of time. She surprises me each day with a new idea and I often wonder how this Angel chose to share herself with me.

I crept slowly into our bedroom and found my Queen laying face down on our bed. She groaned softly into her pillow as she lay with her arms outstretched. A smile lit my face as wrapped my arms around her waist and flipped her over to face me. She squealed with surprise but giggled when she saw me leaning above her.

"What are you groaning about?" I asked as I skimmed kisses along her neck. She rested her hands on my shoulders and sighed softly.

"You know why I'm grumpy." I looked up and she pouted at me. It was a look that made me weak at the knees.

"Have you got your dress all ready?" I asked as I lowered my head and continued my kisses along her collarbone.

She grumbled a bit and pushed me off of her. I laughed a little and lay besides her staring at the ceiling. With one hand resting under my head, I grasped her hand with the other and waited for her answer.

"Yes." She huffed. "Alice made me hang it in one of the spare rooms which no one is allowed to enter until tomorrow. She's terrified it will be creased for the big day."

She snatched her hand away from mine and folded them across her chest as she sulked. I laughed softly and turned to face her. I began to run my fingers through her hair and she relaxed instantly.

"I'm really nervous." She whispered as her eyes closed in pleasure from my strokes. "You know I hate it when everyone looks at me and they are all going to stare as I walk down that aisle."

I laughed again at the adorable creature beside me and leant forward to place a chaste kiss on her full lips.

"The only reason they will be looking is because of your beauty."

She pulled away suddenly and a look of disbelief filled her face. "You haven't seen me in the dress. I really don't think it looks right on me...there had to be a better one out there!" She exclaimed as she jumped from the bed.

"Do you want to see me in it? I know you'll tell me the truth." Her face lit up at her idea as she raced out of the door. I followed her, full speed down the hall and closed my hand on hers as it gripped the door handle to the 'off limit's room'.

She turned around in shock and I shook my head. "No way. It will spoil tomorrow. I want to watch you walk down that isle and be as surprised as everyone else."

She pouted once again. "Meany." She mumbled as she walked away.

I followed her down the staircase and as we entered the foyer; the door opened with a large bang followed by...walking bags?

The bags swayed a little as they approached me and I backed away slightly in fear. Then with a crash the bags dropped to the floor and a black haired pixie appeared in front of me.

"I couldn't see over the bags." She exclaimed as she rushed forward to hug me.

I guffawed as I hugged her back. "Good to see you too Alice. Are you all ready for tomorrow?"

We walked into the kitchen and found Bella shouting into a phone.

"No...The flowers are meant to be blue! The clue is in the name, the flowers are BLUE BELLS!" Her sentence ended in a screech as she leaned menacingly into the phone. Her eyes were slowly turning to red.

Silence.

"Well then I would like to speak to your manager because two hundred bluebells and one hundred white roses are supposed to arrive here tomorrow for the wedding!"

Alice gasped beside me. "Oh no not the flowers!" She exclaimed and rushed forward to take the phone from Bella.

Bella trudged over to me and placed her head against my chest. "It's all too stressful." She cried whilst taking deep and calming breaths.

A few moments later, Alice disconnected the call and approached us with a smile. "It's all sorted. I even talked them into lowering the price for their incompetence."

I beamed at Alice as Bella pulled away from me, suddenly seeming a lot happier.

"Now go on. Edward and Chase are already set for the night at the Volturi castle; the others should be arriving soon." Alice ordered me as she pushed me towards the front door. I dodged out of her strong arms and raced to Bella, placing a soft kiss to her waiting lips.

"I'll see you tomorrow." I whispered as I was dragged away from her. "Tell me again why we decided to have the wedding here?" I groaned as I was pushed out onto the gravel driveway.

Alice smiled her most innocent smile before answering me. "Because it's so pretty." With that she slammed the door shut.

Bella's POV

I stood in my room, in front of the mirror and scrutinised my dress. "I guess I don't have a choice." I sighed to myself.

"You look beautiful."

I snapped my body around, shocked at the unexpected voice. A genuine smiled filled my face as I took in the image before me.

"You don't look too bad yourself. You look good in a tux." I said as I walked over and hugged him.

Edward chuckled as he wrapped me in a warm embrace. "I've missed you." He whispered into my curled hair.

"I've missed you too." I smiled up at him as I moved out of his arms.

His hand rose to loose curl that had fallen over my shoulder and brushed it back. "I see your hair changed back to brown."

I laughed at his observation. "Yeah not long after I came back. Red wasn't really my colour and I think my freaky body agreed by rejecting it."

His melodic chuckle filled the room as we both moved to sit softly on my bed.

"So how have you been?" I asked, suddenly nervous about the answer.

"I've been ok." He smiled at me but still held a slightly sad look in his eyes.

"Did you bring her?" I asked in a tentative voice. I wasn't sure why the thought of seeing him with someone else bothered me; I wanted him to be happy, yet jealousy clawed softly within my heart.

He nodded and looked down for a moment before raising his gaze to mine. "Yeah. She's really nervous about meeting you."

I laughed a little. "The Queen title does that to people." I mused, which earned a loud laugh from the man beside me.

"Not because you're the Queen silly!"

"Oh." I giggled. "She's got nothing to be nervous about...I promise to be nice." I nudged his shoulder softly with my own.

Edward had met a British girl named Samantha on one of his travels around England. She had been newly turned and he took her under his wing, so to speak, and slowly the two formed a bond. She helped to heal him from the pain I had caused and for that; I was eternally grateful.

"Are you happy?" I asked.

A smile lit his face as he turned to me. "I am." We both smiled at our luck.

The Main Event

The weather was perfect. The sky was overcast but Alice had assured everyone that there would be no rain. Aro stood at the head of the alter; ready to perform the ceremony. It wasn't a legally binding marriage but it was a union in the eyes of our world. It was perfect.

I heard the processional music start up and watched as Rose began to glide down the aisle. I began to day dream as I watched her and mentally slapped myself when I noticed people looking expectantly towards the doorway.

Oh crap...my turn.

I took a deep breath and began my shaky decent down the aisle. It was not as graceful as Rose's walk but it was steady and I didn't fall once. I was momentarily blinded by a flash of light and Esme shot me a look of apology as she lowered her camera. I reached the aisle and as I turned to the side, I saw an extremely nervous looking Vampire.

I laughed silently inside and turned to watch the main event.

Jasper came into view with Alice on his arm. It was decided that since Carlisle had given her away in her first marriage; Jasper should give her away in her second. She looked extremely beautiful in her gown that I almost cried and when I turned to see Chase's expression, I saw that the nervous look had been replaced with joy.

On my return to Italy, he had pulled me aside and requested to stay in Alaska for a while longer; under the pretence of security. He 'wanted to make sure there were no further danger's' before he returned. Apparently that entailed a whirl wind romance with Alice followed by a marriage. Chase; who was conceited, self centred and annoying was apparently quite taken with Alice and had happily requested that she spend eternity by his side.

After the service; at which I shed numerous tears, we entered a large tented area on the lawn and began our celebrations. A soft song began to play and Jasper walked towards me and offered me his hand. Walking into the centre of the dance floor we began to sway to the music.

"We should do this you know." He whispered in my ear.

I pulled back in a mixture of shock and confusion. "What?"

"Marriage." He placed a light kiss on my nose and then moved his own softly against mine in an Eskimo kiss.

When he pulled back, my lips lifted into a grin. Tears filled my eyes as I nodded my head.

"Ok. Let's do it." I felt his arms tighten around my waist as he lifted my feet from the ground. With a glowing smile, I bent my head and placed my lips to his; connecting our bodies, our hearts and our futures.

A/N: IMPORTANT

WELL THAT WAS THE END!! :-( I feel really sad now! I'm considering doing an alt ending one shot for all the Edward lovers but I'm not sure. I can see it in my head but I don't know if people would like that. Best thing to do is review and let me know!lol Who wants a one shot of Bella choosing Edward after all.

A couple of things I wanted to say:

This is the longest chapter so far! 3,200 words and eight pages long!

How many of you thought it was Bella and Jasper's wedding? Did I shock ya's? Hehe For those that are confused; Bella was really worried about her bridesmaid dress.lol

And, did anyone notice that I'm Samantha (I couldn't help myself.lol) who is slowly making Edward happy again. I'm great aren't I? I write stories AND I put Edward's heart back together...some would say I'm perfect.lol (only joking I'm not that conceited.lol)

AND FINALLY:

Thank you to ALL the people who reviewed both 'What Happens Now?' and 'Ruina.' It really means a lot that people took the time to encourage me-especially those who reviewed every chapter. I'm sorry I didn't reply to every review but there have just been so many that I couldn't get through them all AND update regularly!

THIS IS MY BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE THOUGH!
