You guys are making me so happy with the feedback I've been recieving. Never in a million years did I ever think I'd EVER recieve such positive opinions from readers.

But, something possessed me to post some fanfiction...

I decided to post this in honor of my Mommy's birthday!!! :)
Happy Birthday Mommy!
"Everett!" I called for him tearing through the house, tears running down my face. Then, I felt Emmett's arms wrap around me caging me. Imprisoning me. For the first time, I fought against his arms still thrashing as I continued my search for Everett as I still cried hysterically.
"Rosalie." Emmett stroked my hair in order to soothe me.
"Don't hold me back Emmett! Let me go to him!" I kicked and writhed in his restraining arms.
"I'm right here…" The tiniest voice I'd ever heard whispered like a faint breeze. I stopped crying long enough to turn around as my eyes met with the beautiful child emerging from his position curled up under the table. His eyes looked wild and frightened and… hurt. Hurt because of me. I reached my hand up to him but Emmett grabbed onto my wrists holding my hands to my side tightly. I struggled against him, but he held strong. Curse him for being the strongest vampire in the world.
"You can't touch him Rose. He'll hurt you. Don't let him into your head. I can't protect you there. Only Bella can…" Emmett's voice was so low Everett didn't have a chance of hearing.
"Everett. Baby, I'm sorry." I felt my arms aching to hold him and my heart burning to see the pain in his eyes. "I love you so much more than you'll ever know." I breathed. Everett's bottom lip pouted out and he trembled as he walked closer to me. Emmett held me tighter.
"B-b-but I heard; Emmelie." He seemed crushed that he thought news of my new daughter –gulp- meant that he was no longer wanted.
"Everett Cullen… You were exactly what I wanted for over a century. Even when I was a little girl, I dreamed about having a beautiful little boy like you." She said. "And I still wished for you for the rest of my existence, but you were already here. You were inside of me, baby for so long and I didn't even know." I touched my hand to my stomach and smiled. "You were always in there, beside my heart, and you touched it first Ev, before I even knew you did." I told him reaching out for him to hold the beautiful child close to me. I'd wanted him for so long, and he was inside of my stomach along with my last heartbeats as a human and my first rebirth as a vampire. We'd gone through so much together. My little Everett and I.
"We're going to go find Emmelie, but Everett. You know that no one can ever take your place." I smiled wanting to hold him so terribly.
"I love you Mommy…" Everett whispered and reached out to hug me. Rosslyn appeared in the room and grabbed Everett's wrists tightly. I couldn't find the air to scold him, as I saw that Rosslyn was not acting out of violence or protection over me. He seemed to talk to Everett causing the beautiful blonde baby to nod and smile a beautiful wide smile.
"Daddy. Please?" Rosslyn asked permission for Everett to touch me. Rosslyn held tight to Everett's hand and led him closer to me.
The children were truly night and day. Everett and Rosslyn looked as opposite as they really were. But, the beauty of their difference is… If there was never a night time, you wouldn't appreciate the brilliance of the sun as much. If it was always day time, then you would never get to experience the mystery and magnificence of the moon and stars. Everett, my moon and stars, and Rosslyn, my sunshine, completed my existence…
Emmett looked upon Royce's child no different than his own child, Rosslyn. You could still see his devotion, his admiration, his love. I felt like throwing my arms around him holding him close. Sure I'd told Emmett I loved him. I never failed to tell him I loved him. But… I never ever ever told him just how much.
Emmett's fingers loosened from the manacles they'd formed around my wrists, but he kept his hand on my back affectionately and more importantly, supportively.
Rosslyn took a deep breath and looked to Everett tightening his grip on his hand as Everett reached out to touch me. I knelt to my knees in front of the children and took their intertwined hands.
'Emmelie's alive… She always has been. Rosslyn says that she talks to him every night. He hears her crying for her family, but the elder king tells her that her Mother and Father never wanted her. And that's why she lives there… Emmelie told Rosslyn she loves him and even though you don't want her, she wants you, Mommy and Daddy. The old king got the evil little girl to hurt Emmelie in her mind whenever she thought about coming home to you so she never thinks of you anymore. She talks to Rosslyn very secretly. Even the king doesn't know...' Everett's voice ran through my mind. I noticed Everett and Rosslyn still had a death grip on one another's hands and that Everett was telling me, Rosslyn's thoughts. Everett and Rosslyn, night and day had bounded together to reveal to us where their sister was being held captive…
Before I knew what was happening, Emmett was fuming as he threw a crushing punch at the wall causing it to crumble under the blow on his way to the door. He threw open the door causing it to fly off its hinges and shatter to the floor.
"Emmett! Where are you going?" I sped behind him as Rosslyn and Everett's eyes snapped open, a gasp of fright escaping their lips at the scene of Emmett's anger.
"Volterra." Emmett snarled. Emmett was right. My daughter was captive in Volterra, Italy. A prisoner of the Volturi…
Emmett continued stalking from the door. He was determined to find his daughter. I felt my dead heart accelerate in anticipation.
"I'm going with you." I said, seeing my baby Emmelie's face in my mind. How could the Volturi take her from me and torture her so? All this time and she was just out of my reach. Just across the ocean....
Rosslyn and Everett both smiled to each other. So apparently, Rosslyn and Emmelie had this twin telepathy communication going on, but how did Everett fit into this?
'I know what my true gift is now Mommy. It isn't a curse to hurt… It's a gift… The gift of knowing truths.' Everett was exuberant. Rosslyn held tighter to his hand and Everett concentrated. 'She's being held in the far west wing of Volterra castle. She is alone, in a room with long red tapestries. Guards wait outside her door.' Everett told me the truths through Rosslyn's limited telepathy with Emmelie. Emmelie wasn't able to tell Rosslyn everything, due to the tight security of the Volturi, but through the information she could give Rosslyn through codes, the connection between Rosslyn and Everett made it possible for Everett to see the hidden truth in the information. I considered Everett's gift for a long moment… It was true. As far as the visions he showed me that caused pain; Everett knew that his true identity lied in a place in my memories; most were painful recollections, but the pleasant memory of Royce's garden that I'd thought I'd lost remembrance of ages ago, showed the truth of Everett's origin. He showed only truth, therefore the information about Emmelie's whereabouts must be factual.
"Emmett! Rosalie! Wait…" Carlisle called after us. "Aro could have you two killed… All he wants is the child. He will stop at nothing to keep her his. If we are going to get her back, we'll need to all go. We'll need help. This might just be a fight..." Carlisle breathed solemnly.
