I own nothing!

Chapter 42:

Bella POV:

I finally convinced Emmett that we both had to get up, and make sure the others were ready to go to the air strip I want to be in and out of Volterra about as fast as I thought that. I also really did not want any problems while we were there anyways. We were just sorting out laws and that they really didn't need to be there in the first place.

To my surprise as we walked out of our rooms that everyone was sitting there waiting for us.

Bella: Okay, I'm a little late let's just get going

We got on the elevator and went down to the lobby. I returned our room keys and we walked out of the door to find a black hummer limo waiting for us.

Driver: Are you the Cullen's?

Bella: Yes, sir.

Driver: Great let's get going

Bella: Sounds good to me.

So we all piled into the limo. And it was a sort of tight fit, but we made it work. Note to self for future reference order the giant party bus. So much more comfortable.

It was a 45 minute ride to the air strip. And luckily I plane was ready to go. We boarded the plane quickly, and took off as soon as the limo was clear. The stewardess was flirting with all the guys the whole time. Like seriously at least act like this is not the first guy you have ever seen. You are easily 40 years old.

Marcus: Bella, be prepared there are probably a lot of dumb rules that Aro has created that we have no clue about.

Bella: is it bad that I figured as much?

Caius: no not really. That man was one sneaking bastard.

Bella: Well I plan on being in and out. About as fast as I said it.

Jasper: Thank god. I hate going anywhere near that castle. It is so dark and no offense nasty.

Emmett: I don't think they would take offense to that I mean they lived there for how many years with the misery of Aro.

Carlisle: Aro at the very early stages of ruling was not terrible. I believe it was because he had no clue what he was doing.

Bella: can we please stop talking about him. Every time someone says his name all I can picture is the greedy smirk and the mischievous look they he had.

Edward: That's actually a pretty fair description.

Then everyone settled in for the long plane ride we had left.

(TIME JUMP)

The plane ride was finally over, and luckily we were able to land right in the castles air strip so we didn't have to go no more than 100 feet to get inside the castle.

Bella: and let the tortuous process being

We let Marcus lead the way to Aro's office as he had kept all the laws in there. Seems there are going to be a lot of dumb ones to go through. As soon as we opened the door we were greeted by a snarling little dog. It's definitely a regular dog, but you think we would have smelt it or heard it.

Marcus: that's just Tara, and no one would have known she was in here. Aro had this room vamp- proofed.

Tara ran around and growled at everyone biting them, and then she came to me. And just sat down and licked my leg. I bent down to pet here and she jumped up on me and wanted me to pick her up. I felt bad for the dog. Her owner probably didn't take care of her correctly. So she was going to be my little buddy from now on. As soon as I picked her up she cuddled into my arms and fell asleep.

Jasper: Great, another thing that is coming home with us.

Britt: Shut up. It's cute.

Jasper: Wait till it pees on you.

Emmett: Jasper, it's a cute little dog not some monstrous tiger. Its fine, we should have animals at the house. it would always give us something to do.

Jasper: Can we have horses?

Bella: I don't see why not. But let's get down to business I want to get out of here.

We all sat down at this large round table, and we opened the first law book.

Law One: It is illegal for more than five unmated vampire females to live in one house

Bella: Thoughts?

Jasper: Stupid!

Bella: Everyone agree?

Everyone nodded.

Bella: Okay, that one is out.

Law Two: There shall be no coven larger than 10 people

Emmett: I find it weird that aro broke his own law.

Marcus: I didn't know that it even existed.

Bella: I say we are voting it out seeing's how we exceed the limit of 10.

Carlisle: Agreed

Law Three: To declare a coven to death, only one vote is necessary for it to happen.

Bella: I take it he didn't want to have to have your guy's input. It might of interfered with his plans.

Marcus: It does seem that way.

Caius: That is being voted out right?

Bella: Yes. It must be a unanimous decision to send a coven to death, except under extreme circumstances like a fight. We are there to protect each other. Death of the other side may become necessary.

Carlisle: that is very fair of you Bella.

Law Four: It is illegal to hunt humans on Sunday

Caius: Since when was Aro religious?

Bella: Hold on there is more.

Law Four (in full): It is illegal to hunt humans on Sunday, unless they are (a) coming from church or (b) under the age of 10.

Bella: Okay, he is an asshole. I don't even want to go through any more of these laws. I want to continue with the original laws that were there. Other than that these are all garbage and a waste of time. I am so glad that this evil twisted fucker is gone. Sick bastard.

Jasper: It is pretty safe to say we all agree.

Everyone said that they agreed.

Bella: Good lets go home.
