Chapter 25:
"Ok class, I would like to start our new vampire unit today. I happen to have some family members who are willing to answer your questions. I would like to introduce the Cullens and Volturi." The two groups file in. All of them are brutally good looking. "Who wants to go first?" The werewolf scans the room for raised hands. "Mr. Nott. Ten points to Slytherin for having the courage to be first."
"What is the difference between your eye color?"
"Good question, Mr. Nott. I am Alice Whitlock. I believe you all met my husband, Jasper, the other day. The difference shows our feeding preference. The blood red eyes are from drinking from our more traditional food supply. The gold comes from drinking from animals. Us Cullens live in the Northwest of the US, large elk are a common food choice for us. Emmett actually goes for bears and Edward is known for his mountain lions."
"Miss Parkinson?"
"How old were you when you were turned and why were you? It's for everyone."
"As I know everyone's story, I'll take this one. I am Edward Cullen. Yes, I am aware that I look like Mr. Diggory. Alice was 22 and was turned in the thirties by a doctor in her mental hospital. She has ESP. I was 17 and dying of the Spanish Flu, my mother begged our doctor to save me and then joined my father in death. Our doctor was Carlisle Cullen, who is the head of our "family". Emmett was 20 and had been mauled by a bear in back of his house when Rose here found him and brought him to Carlisle. Rose was brutally gang raped by her groom and his buddies the night before her wedding, she was 18. After they were done beating her and leaving her for dead Carlisle found her. Aro was 35 when he was stabbed repeatedly by the Roman Senate. Caius was turned at the age of 30 by his uncle Aro. Jane and Alec were and are twins they were 19 when Aro turned them, because of their awesome powers. Last but not least, is my Bella. I turned her two years ago after our honeymoon as per our agreement."
"Damn straight." Bella replies. "He and I were at loggerheads over it for two years before that." The class laughs at her putting Edward in line.
Bella and Mars take their time walking down to Hogsmeade. They want to discuss what they are going to do for the Holidays. This is the first time their family would be together.
Mars takes her hand, "Enyo, let's buy an estate. That way it'll have plenty of room for the whole family. We can have them and their parents come and stay with us. Let's go to London and inquire at a few agencies." He pulls her to an apparition point, that way it doesn't look weird when they fade away.
They settle on buying some land a half day's drive from London, in Derbyshire. There is quaint little village within walking distance. Mars sends an Iris message to his brother Hephaestus. He comes to help Mars plan the house to be a modern version on Jane Austen's Pemberly, given Enyo's love of the author.
The whole estate was ready two weeks before the Holidays. Aside from having lavish suites for all eleven couples in the family, in the main house. The guest house had another twelve suites. Each suite boasted a full bath, large walk-in closet and sitting room. There was a music room, with hidden recording studio. A three-room sized library. The basement housed an Olympic sized pool, sauna, weight room, weapons room, and indoor track. The kitchen was fitted out with every modern convenience, including a lava setting for cleaning, with asbestos gloves for the ones who don't have only one eye.
Back at school, Bella sits down to her desk and sets to work making out her invitations for the Holidays. She and Mars expect to finally meet the Grangers and Tonks. Not only are they meeting the in-laws but they are also telling them that the kids will be immortal and young forever.
The responses come back almost immediately. The Granger's will stay to get to know everyone. They are delighted, as they have heard only nice things about the Mars' and Harry. They were happy that Harry has some decent influences finally. The response from the Tonks, Malfoys, and Potters was "Hell Yeah!" Esme and Carlisle called to say they would be there. Sally, Paul and Tyson will be there as well, but to keep it a secret from Percy and Annabeth. The big three and their wives are coming for the meal. Mars and Bella decide to set it up buffet style on the dining room table.
