Life is a Highway with many Twists and Turns

Still sitting in the middle chair that was Aro's Lorain looked at each and every one of them including their wives. Each one looked at him with respect, while he himself looked like he was board through his teeth.

"Sir, what is the news of the wizarding world?, since we can not step foot there." Aro asked

"Trouble with a capital T, many of the people are getting bitten either by werewolves or by the vampires. Do you happen to know of Angel Snape?" Lorain asked.

"Yes, she is a half vampire and witch?" Marcus asked as he sat on the floor.

"More witch than vampire which out of everything it decided to show up now. Hmmmmm you guys can not enter that world, I wonder if you would like to go anyway. There are a few nomad vampires that are in need of waking up.. See the vampires over there rarely know of any of you. Give me a week and I will permit you to go." Lorain said as a smile crossed his lips.

Aro's eyes lit up like a sick jack-o-lantern. "Sir I have also know that Angel is Harry's aunt. His kids got bitten, how are they handling it?"

"Doing very well, the newborn stage seems not effect them as much, Plus Angel has them on a strict animal diet and if they do happen to bit another human, then they know that they will not live to see another day, Aro I know that you and your brothers want to destroy them now, but your rules do not apply to them since they were bitten in England, But Angel knows you and how you work, she knows that some day you will want to see them. She also knows about your rules and that is why she has them on a leash." Lorain said as a mater of fact.

Angel got up from the bed to go down stairs and to her house there was no one that could stop her. Reaching her house and opening the door to her house she walked in and went strait to her room grabbed towels and robe and went into the bathroom, ran the water into a nice hot bath, Lighting scented candles she got in after taking her cloths off.

Wincing a little as the hot water touched her cool body, she washed her very long hair and just soaked until the water started to get cool. Getting out she toweled up her hair and put the terrycloth bath robe on and went into the kitchen as she started to get something to eat or snack on. After setting everything down in front of the computer she went into her room and got dressed in shorts and a tank top and sat back down in the chair.

Taking a bite out of the sandwich and a drink of tea as she read the headlines from the muggle news paper.

10 people missing!

10 people are missing from a holiday trip, the families of these ten people put in a missing persons reports when their families did not return Saturday evening. All of them worked in the ministry in various departments. The names were given out earlier today.

Elizabete Cobblestone, Erik Winslow, Donald Weasley, Sandra Bobkins, Mr. and Mrs. Kingsley,…

Angel stopped there as she did not need to know who else was missing, She knew them all and very well. She looked like she was about to cry, But that steal bar of determination made her stop. Hearing a small tap on the window used her wand and the window opened to let the owl in. She gave it the money and a pit of her sandwich and water before it left for its long flight back. Opening up the paper she read the very same names that the muggle paper had, except for one name that never made it to the muggle paper… Mr. Diggory.

Angel's eyes went wide, she knew that she could not and would not let Harry know what happened. It would only make it worse for him to know what happened. Just as that thought came across the two kids came into the room and sat down in front of the TV and turned it on, not even noticing that she was in the same room as her.

Smiling to herself at the both of them she cleared her throat they looked over to her and smiled back at her.

"I see that you all need to feed. Come on Ill feed with you." Angel said as she went to the door and went out. With a lot of speed they encountered a herd of dear and went to feed. Angel felt better than she had in a long while. Standing close but not close enough to the kids as they fed off of the dear keeping watch for anything or anyone. She heard a twig snap behind her and she twirled in place and crouched down and held her wand out.

"Whoa, there tiger. I was wondering where the kids were at so I came to look for them." Harry said with a sad smile.

"They are all right and they need to feed. Harry what is wrong?" Angel dared to ask.

"I read the paper I know about Cedric's father. He was a good man. We all know what happened, they have been bitten and turned. I have some info about what happened and we need to involve the Cullens and Bella. We also need to get a hold of Lorain also." Harry said.

"Ok, kids you guys all right for a while? We need to get home and convene a meeting." Angel said as she grabbed both kids and took off while Harry close. Going into the house she dialed Carlisle number and said that they needed to met and if they could get a hold of Lorain for her.

Carlisle hung the hone up and called everyone into the living room and said that Angel and her small family was coming over and had Alice call Charlie so Bella can stay over for the night there.. Pulling his cell out and dialed the number to Lorain.

Lorain pulled out his phone and looked at the number and spoke into it.

"Carlisle what is happening my good man?" Lorain asked thankful for the distraction.

"Well we need you to come back for a little bit, there is something going on and Angel asked if you would be here at the meeting?" Carlisle asked.

"Sure, it has to be important if she is calling it, would you mind if there were a couple of brothers come with me and some of their guard?" Lorain asked as he got up.

"Sure, the day that the Volture come is a day to soon." He said in a hushed voice.

"Tell Edward they will not harm Bella, you have my word on it." He said as he pointed looked at the brothers.

"I think that she is wanting this meeting soon. So if there is anyway to apparated that would be great." Carlisle said back.

"Sure be there is a few." Lorain said back. He hung up as she watched that a fair amount of people in the guard was all ready to go, Demetri, Jane, Flexi, and a few other were looking at him waiting.

"Ok Jane and your brother and the rest of the guard have to use the port key to get there, I can not take all of you at once, I can take the brothers but that is about it. Take this paper grab it and it will take you to Carlisle place and I will be there in a few minuets.

They were gone in a few minuets and landed rather roughly on the ground in front of the house. They did not find it to funny when Emmet and the rest were laughing at them as they landed.

"That was the funniest thing I have ever seen." Emmet said as he helped Jane up.

Then there was a very loud crack in the air and Lorain and the brothers were there.

"Ok we are here, when is this meeting going to happen?" Lorain asked.

"As soon as Angel and Harry get here. Which is soon considering that they are only half a mile from us. Come in every one." Carlisle said as the brothers watched Bella.

"Carlisle, you do know she will have to be changed or she will have to die." Aro said to him.

"We know that but it will be on her terms not yours." Edward said as he shook Aro's hand.

"You can't read her mind how interesting. Would it be all right to see if any of our gifts would work on her?" Aro asked.

"If it is all right with her." Edward said and then looked at Bella "He can read peoples minds while holding hands."

Bella pulled her hand out into Aro's and just looked at him. Aro did not see anything, like he ran into a wall.

"How interesting….Jane would you like to see if your gift works?" Aro asked.

"Aro, be careful you know what I meant in the castle." Lorain shot off a warning.

"It's fine, so don't worry about it." Bella said as she stared at the blond with red eyes.

"Pain.." Jane said and constrained on Bella and slowly getting frustrated with it.

Bella just looked at Jane with nothing going on, no flinching or dropping. Aro's laugh brought Jane out of her trance. "Master," She whispered

Bella was pulled into Edwards embrace. Just as that happened, Harry, Angel, the kids and Ron, and Hermione came walking into the house.

"Aro, Causus, Marcus, Jane, Demetri, Felix. And everyone else this is Harry's friends Ron and Hermione Weasley." Angel said as she sat down, looking ragged.

"Lets get this meeting on the way." Carlisle said as people took various positions in the room. Lorain stood behind Angel and watched her closely.

" Harry what is it that you want to say, Or would like Ron or Hermione say it, or me start it off?" Angel said.

"You start it off by the missing people from the muggle paper and what ours said." Harry said.

"Well you all know that wizarding world is in turmoil with vampires and werewolves. Just today I read a paper from England and ours ten people are missing and all are from the ministry, I knew them all. The one that was not mentioned in the muggle paper was Cedric's father Amos, The ones that was most shocking was Kingsley Shacklebolt he worked for the minister for both ours and for the muggle, him and his wife are missing. Harry came to me and told me that he knew of Cedric's father and we all know that they have been turned." Angel said as she looked over to Ron.

"It appears that there is going to be a war and it involves the vampires and werewolves with us, the one thing that is what disturbs me there was a massive break out from Azkaban and just about every death eater that was there are now gone with out a trace, but we found out that is was Dolores Umbridge and some other person that has red hair and is American….." He said but was cut off by a gasp.

"Victoria, she said she would get us back from killing her mate, she wants to kill me to get back at the Cullens." Bella said as a tear came down.

Carlisle looked over to Bella and asked "When did you find this out?"

"When you guys left for a couple of month's vacation and left me here alone. Laurent stopped by and told me that she is planning in killing me slowly." Bella said as she sobbed.

"Thank you Bella, now we have a name that goes with the person. As we looked and finding what happened …. We went looking into other departments of the ministry and there are a lot of people missing and Delores is behind it all. She was or has been changed with the rest there is an army of newborns heading this way." Ron said again.

"As it seems, they want the kids as well. This is not going to be fun considering these are people we use to work with, but that is not it. We will be fighting vampires mostly, werewolves are calming down and have not bitten anyone lately." Hermione said as she looked around the room. Just as that was said Alice went into a trance. When she came out she looked at Angel and said.

"They will be here in two month's every one you knew and worked with are coming there are going to be several deaths. Bella I hate to say this but you have to be changed before you are ready. Those death's that I see will not die unless you change. I am sorry to say that but if you don't then me, Edward and Esme will die." Alice said with her head hung down in sadness.

"I have no problem in going through the change now. I don't want every one that I know and care and love die for me, if you need me as a vampire I will gladly change." Bella said with anger and sadness

Angel looks over to her and grabbed her hand " Are you sure this is what you want? You will lose everything, you will not be able to see anyone of your human friends, no children at all."

"I will do it for my family, I know what the risks are and I gladly take them. For my father and mother if this keeps them safe I will do it for them also." Bella said with a small smile.

Every one's eye watched Bella with fascination, happiness, sadness, and aw to the woman sitting in front of them.

Lorain cleared his throat and said " Since this is confession time, I think I had better say something." He said as his eyes changed from the hazel blue to the deepest red as his person also changed to a cold pale person, as when that happened every vampire in the house went down to one knee and said " Sire we are at your service."

Angel, Harry, Hermione, Ron and even some of the kids looked at them all in confusion, "Talk now!" Angel said in a hiss.

"Ah yes, I am the one person that not only started the Ministry of magic, but my venom runs through everyone of these vampire's, they are my children. Angel you know me, you walked pass my statue everyday while you worked at the ministry. Even though they got it wrong, but that is a different story all together. Get off your knee's please I think I freaked them out as it is…." He said but was rudely interrupted by a kid.

"So you are the one that bit Severus Snape? You were the one that is in my nightmare's and you are the one that is a pain in the ass to everyone in the ministry?" Albus said to a frustrated man.

"Boy, where did you here that from?" Lorain asked.

"I do not know how I know I just know, its kind of frustrating to know this stuff, but Severus is dead for a while….." Albus said

"But when Angel talks in her sleep she knows that he is dead from the killing curse, but that would have bounced off of him to and extent. He had to be torn apart and burned. So what is in that tomb is the ashes of him." Mel said back as she came up to her brother.

"That is a different story all together and it dose not help." Angel said as she had tears in her eyes as well. "We have to plan and train, that means that you all have to be subject to our spell's and see what can or can not work on you all. Cause you will not be going up against regular newborns, but ones that are wizards and witches. It seem Delores could not give up her hate for me…Victoria could not do the same. It is going to be a sad day… I do not want anyone from the order in this either, yea we are going to need a lot of people from every where, this is big…." Angel said as Alice grabbed her arm. Angel's eyes slid out of focus as well. In no time Angel was out of the house and pounding her way to Bella's house. Hoping she was not to late.

"Alice what did you see that got Angel to go like that?" Edward dared to ask.

"You know what I saw and I hope she gets there soon." Alice said as she watched Bella from the corner of her eyes.
