Recap:

My father opened his mouth to say something, but it never got out.

Just then all of the doors burst open, and screaming filled the air as hundreds as men with grey-blue uniforms rushed in.

The French had arrived.

I may be a vampire, but I was still a young one. It took me a moment to realize that I couldn't be harmed, but up until then, I clung on to Edward as if my life depended on it.

The scent of blood filled the air, and that's what snapped me back into reality. The men in French uniforms had already killed off most of the guards, and the others were losing their fights. Jasper and Emmett stayed by us, though. Our enemies were flooding in, blocking each exit and knocking out walls and columns. The ground shook, and the screaming grew louder. I held my breath against the disgusting smell.

I looked up at Edward, who was looking around with a tortured expression, and Jasper looked as if he were about to break down. Esme and Carlisle were protecting Jadyn from flying material, mostly bits of wall. Rosalie and Emmett looked lost, and Alice had a blank look on her face as she just stood there.

"What are we supposed to do?!" I yelled to no one in particular.

"Well, we'll have to save Jadyn somehow," Esme called.

"We don't know what the French are planning to do. They might want everyone as prisoners, or kill them all," Edward said loudly. Even as a vampire it was hard to hear him above everything.

We were the only ones who weren't running and screaming. My father was no where to be seen, obviously trying to hide from the French. James was still lying motionless a few yards away from where we stood.

"They're not showing any signs of stopping soon!" Emmett called, for once serious.

"We should probably-"

"They won't stop. No one in here will live once they're finished. The whole palace is coming down, and we have to get out of here before they find your father, Bella! You don't want to see that!" Alice called, snapping out of her vision-stage.

"My... father?" He would die? I mean, no, I wasn't exactly on best terms with him at the moment, but still! I didn't want him to die! I looked around the crowd for him

"Come on, then. Let's go," Rosalie said.

"Where?" Carlisle asked. Edward, Jasper, Alice, Rosalie, and Emmett looked at each other for a moment.

"Care to explain?" Esme asked in an irritated tone while guarding a crying toddler.

"The ship. We left it at the port we came off at. They think that it's a trading ship, so unless they changed their minds, it should be there. It's not too far off at all," Jasper informed us.

"So let's go! NOW!" Alice shrieked, grabbing Jasper by the arm and tugging him away. Everyone else followed, and Edward pulled me backward as I continued to scan the screaming mass of people for my father. As I was pulled, I saw a French soldier finish James off and smiled inwardly to myself.

The French were all around, murdering my people as we pushed through. I put my face into Edward's chest to block my sight from the gruesome killings, and he led me along. The French tried to come at us, but Jasper and Emmett were able to quickly kill them off or knock them unconscious from the front of the group.

As we neared a space in the wall that led into the dark night, Alice began running at vampire speed toward the exit for some reason. She looked very anxious to get out.

It was as we were getting outside that I heard a voice with a heavy French accent fill the air.

"Your king is dead! See him here! Surrender now!"

I started sobbing tearlessly as I fought against Edward to race back inside and somehow save my father, but he continued to drag me across the grounds. This was what Alice had been worried about.

It was so peaceful outside, other than the screams we left behind, and surprisingly, there wasn't a single French soldier about. There were the lifeless bodies of the palace soldiers, but no grey-blue uniforms were among them.

We were all now sprinting toward the port at full speed with Emmett and Rosalie leading the way. We were already far away, well not that far, but French soldiers were littered across the kingdom, coming after us but falling behind quickly. Once we had halted I looked around to see that we were at a port and in front of the ship I thought that I'd never see again. The Blood Moon was stationed in front of us, and everyone else was climbing up on to it. I looked up at Edward, and he motioned us onward.

There was no joyous greeting from the crew at the return of the Captain and his family. Instead, they watched as we came on to the main deck silently. I turned and stood between Edward and Rosalie as I gazed into the the land we had just left, my land, or the French's now.

As I looked back into the night, the moon shone down onto the small shadow of the palace. The air was filled with one last explosion in the distance, and the port shook one last time. I watched with sadness as the form of the palace crumbled and fell, and the French victory horn was sounded.

The ship lurched beneath us, and I was aware that we were moving as the outline of the kingdom shrunk. The waves rolled calmly around me, but Jadyn's cries didn't stop until the dark speck in the distance was gone and the sun peeked above the horizon behind me. Everyone had retreated except for Edward and myself. He had his arms wrapped around me from behind me, and I was leaning against him in my torn dress, which probably looked better destroyed than it had before.

"Look at the sunrise," he whispered softly into my ear before letting go and just grabbing my hand.

I sadly spun around and was immediately dazzled by an array of colors. Pink, yellow, orange, purple, and more. The sun was half way above the horizon, and I knew that it marked a new rising for my new eternity, which was to be spent happily with my new family. We would all watch Jadyn grow up, and see the love between everyone grow.

"It's beautiful," I whispered as I leaned back into Edward.

"I agree, but it can't compare to you," he murmured back.

"I love you," I said.

"I love you more." I didn't get a chance to argue. He grabbed my chin lightly and pressed his lips to mine. The fire flew between us like never before, and I didn't care what had just happened or what was to come. I never wanted this moment to end. I knew the grand truth right at that moment. My eternity would be spent with my Edward, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
