I know, I know, it's been forever. I'm sorry. The summer got away from me. I apologize for this chapter taking so long. One of my reviewers mentioned that they would have loved to see Edward's reaction to the pack barging in, and it got me thinking. So after mulling over the idea, and figuring it all out, I came up with this chapter. But the chapter took a while to get right.

The first part of this chapter (Edward's POV) happens before Alice's POV in the previous chapter and during Rosalie's POV also in the last chapter. The rest of the chapter (which starts with the last line of the previous chapter) is a continuation of the story. I know it's a little confusing, and if I were a real writer, when I got this all edited, I would move the chapters around. So WRITER'SBLOCK7777 this chapter is dedicated to you, since without your review, I would have never thought of writing this.

And as always, a big hand to my girl, JUL5758, my totally awesome Beta. She's got two kick ass stories too, that I Beta, and I suggest you all go check them out. MY PAST, YOUR PRESENT, OUR FUTURE and TRIBAL DADDY.

Oh and I almost have 600 reviews! You guys rock!

Edward's POV

After attending to that vile Mike Newton once more, I was able to focus on what I needed to do. I had her in my arms again. I pulled her head to the side, giving me access to her neck once more. I knew I was taking too much time, so I had to be quick about this. Too many things had gone wrong already. I took a second to inhale her delicious scent. Then I curled my lips up, bearing my teeth, and I lowered my mouth to the pulsing vein on her neck.

All of a sudden there was noise and chaos. I tried to hold tightly to Bella, only to realize that not only was she not in my arms, I no longer had arms. I was up against the back wall, and the horrible scent assailed me before my brain really took in what was happening.

It was over. I had failed. My body was pinned against the wall as the wolves took turns taking chunks out of me. Soon I had no limbs, and one wolf in human form was holding me up. Jacob stood before me, naked and in human form. He shook and soon he was a wolf again. And with one swipe of his paw, he ripped my head from my body and then ripped my torso in half.

He phased back.

"Sam, gather up all these pieces and burn this motherfucking leech. But save the head, I want that honor."

I snarled at him, and he growled at me in return. He looked towards where my Bella was, his face hard, his thoughts blocked from me.

"I have to go to Bella. And we need to find the other one who was with him."

"I think Rosalie already did," Sam said and he pointed to the door.

Sam had my head tucked under his arm, but I could still see Rosalie dragging Alice in by the hair and then handing her off to the wolves. They brought her to stand before Jacob, who now had his filthy paws all over my Bella. I let out a snarl, which I was rewarded with a smack on the head from Sam. I remained silent the rest of the time, just watching as the mutt spoke to Alice.

"You, Alice Cullen, in my eyes have broken the treaty. You willingly took part in Edward's plan to kidnap and then change my imprint. I want to end your existence. I want to rip you apart, like I did Edward, and have my pack carry your remains out to the fire pit to burn with him."

He paused and looked down at Bella. "But my mate tells me that you tried to stop Edward, that you tried to get him to give up. There was a time you and Bella were best friends, and you helped her when she was unable to care for herself. Bella has asked me to spare you. And for her I will not tear you apart and burn you. But you cannot stay here. So Alice Cullen, your punishment for taking part in the planned turning of my imprint is banishment from Forks for the rest of your existence."

If Alice could cry, I am sure she would have burst into tears. I could see the sorrow in the faces of my family members, but they did not argue with the mutt, this Alpha. They all but laid down and took it.

Carlisle and Esme stepped forward.

"Jacob, I don't know if you had a plan to send Alice somewhere, but I think it best if Esme and Rosalie take Alice away to our private island. They can watch her there, and there will be no threat of her landing into the hands of the enemy. It could be dangerous if Aro got his hands on her."

The mutt nodded. Everything moved swiftly from there. Esme and Rosalie whisked Alice away. Before she reached the door, Alice looked back to Jasper, calling out to him. He walked away, and never looked back. Alice let out a heartbreaking sob, as Rosalie lifted her in a fireman carry and took her to the car.

Everyone was busy cleaning up and Carlisle was attending to the stupid Newton kid. He was still out cold, so he had Emmett race back and grab a car so they could take him to the hospital. I heard Carlisle say he would tell them he found Newton on the floor unconscious when he had come in to pick up some new hiking boots. The stupid humans would buy it too.

And then my eyes again landed on the mutt, who was cradling my Bella against his filthy naked chest, kissing her hair and whispering soothing words to her. A snarl rose in my throat, too low for Bella's human ears, but the mutt caught it and looked up, locking eyes with me.

Jacob's POV

I heard the low snarl from the bloodsucker. I had almost forgotten about him. I was so caught up in comforting Bella, taking in her scent, and trying to calm myself. I pulled back from her a little, to which she whimpered in protest, and turned my head looking for Seth.

"Seth! SETH! I need you."

Seth came rushing over and I let go of Bella. She wobbled a bit and Seth grabbed her, steadying her. She looked up and gave him a weak smile, before resting her head on him. I tucked some of her hair behind her ears, a small smile across my face, before my eyes flicked up to Seth's.

"Use her truck and take her to my home on Second Beach. Stay with her until I return. Call Billy, explain what happened, and ask him to call Charlie and make up some sort of excuse as to why Bella is staying in La Push tonight. I don't care what he tells Charlie. I need her to stay with me tonight."

Seth nodded but said nothing. I looked back at Bella. She was barely standing on her own power, resting most of her weight on Seth. Gently he scooped her up. I placed one more kiss on her forehead. She did not open her eyes, but smiled softly. I looked at Seth again and nodded towards the door, and with that he headed out the door, with Leah behind him. No doubt she would go too, and for that I was grateful.

I slowly walked back to where Sam stood at the back of the store, near the rear exit that led right out to the edge of the woods. I could smell the smoke from the fire that the pack had lit. They had already burned the rest of the leech's body. Before I got to Sam, Carlisle stopped me.

Emmett had brought his car, and he had called Mike's parents. As they left, Jasper carrying Mike out to the car, holding him like he was a baby. I smirked and snorted a chuckle.

The rest of the pack, Sam and myself headed out the back door, switching off the lights as we left. We then assembled around the fire. Sam took his place next to me, and I turned to him. Wordlessly he handed me the bloodsucker's head. I grasped him by his hair. He let out a screech like it hurt him, but I knew better. I brought his head up so he was eye level with me. I smirked at him.

"Say hi to Satan motherfucker."

And with that I tossed his screaming head into the fire.

So let me know what you think. The next chapter is going to be Bella and Jake dealing with the aftermath. There will be a lemon,because Jacob is feeling the need to claim Bella, so OUTTAKES will be updated after Chapter 37 or TROIS. But after that we are going to be skipping ahead. The pack will train with the Cullens that have remained (Carlisle, Emmett and Jasper) and I will briefly mention that, but we will now be moving into when the other packs arrive.

Remember, reviews are better than being torn apart by wolves and burned in a fire.
