OK you can read the next chapter now. Please no one die, or burn their hair off.

I finally cuaght up to my writings, so yeah, maybe a slower pace although I know what I want to happen next. In fact I know what I want to put in the sequal...but ANYWAY, here's the chapter

As soon as I heard her voice, I knew something was wrong. I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. Something always went wrong. It was life. Well at least for me. I frowned. "Alice, what's wrong?" I asked trying to keep my voice calm so I didn't startle Jacob. Even still, Jacob looked up at me, his eyes full of worry. I felt the same way, but knew that it wasn't showing on me.

"The Volturi are coming! They are looking for you and Bella." Shit, no. Stay calm, Jera, I told myself.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure Jera, why else would I call?"

"When?"

"I have no idea, but we can't risk it can we?"

"I see your point. What do we do?"

"Ok...You and Jacob need to get Charlie. Then meet me at the hotel in Old Royal, A.S.A.P."

"You taking care of Bella?"

"What else would I be doing? Oh great, everything about this is messed up. What if this doesn't work? What if Edward stops us?" She continued ranting at an amazingly fast pace. Well at least I wasn't the only worrier.

"Alice, stop!" Instantly the voice on the other end was silent. "I'll be there soon. You better get a move on."

"I'm on the move already!"

"With Bella?"

"Duh! Say hi Bella."

"Hi," came Bella's voice came out shakily from the other end.

"Well you didn't have to prove that..."

"Whatever! Just hurry up!" I snapped my phone close. He looked at me fearfully.

I sighed. "You heard?"

"Well I caught must of it. But who are the Volturi?"

"Ok, I'll explain later, but Jacob we really have to go now."

Quickly, I dashed out of the house. Maybe a little too fast, I saw Jacob's father completely astonished by my speed. Oh wait, he wasn't supposed to know about vampires, was he? Great. After mentally smacking myself, I set that matter aside for later. Jacob soon came out of the house.

"I have to get Charlie. You take my car and go to Old Royal. I'll be there soon. If you get there before me, Alice can answer your questions? Got it?"

"Uh sure..." he started walking to a shack.

"Wait where are you going Jacob Black?"

"Motorcycle."

"Motorcycle?"

"Yeah."

"Sure, what ever you want, just get there fast." I tossed him directions to the hotel, kissed him on the cheek, then dashed to Bella's house.

At top speed, i got there in under five minutes. Frantically, I rang the doorbell. Charlie answered, of course. But then again, he could have been at work. So, it was lucky that he was home. "Mr. Swan, we have to go now. Like right now. Get on my back." I paused for a second, mentally picturing this. I quickly snapped back. "I'll explain everything on the way."

"But..." he protested quietly.

"No buts. Now! Bella is probably in danger." He raised his eyebrow. "Fine, she is in danger, now let's go." Finally he got on. As I ran, I explained to him everything about the Volturi. After that, we were quiet. My thoughts wandered to the last time the Volturi wanted me. No doubt, they would realize that I had a new power now, and take this as a chance to try to recruit me again. They also wanted Bella. They were trying to kill two birds with one stone.

I wasn't paying attention to where I was going until Charlie interuppted my thoughts. "Uh, J-Jera..."

"What?" I asked irritated.

"You're skin." I examined myself. I was sparkling and shining, I was in the sun. What happened to all the clouds? I rolled my eyes, duh, I wasn't near Forks anymore.

"Oh sorry." Rapidly I slunk into the nearest shadow. For the rest of the trip, I was very cautious about where I went.

We made it to the hotel before Jacob. Alice and Bella were already there, silently sitting in the lobby. As we walked in, Bella jumped up and hugged her father. She was about to burst into tears. I didn't blame her. I made my way to Alice. She looked up at me as I sat down. We sat there for a little bit, both of us just working on trying to relax a little bit. A few minutes, Jacob basically skidded into the lobby, his face weary. Bella sobbed and sunk into a hug from Jacob.

Soundlessly, Alice and I got up and collected the three. Everything seemed to be standing still as we stood in the elevator. This must be the calm before the storm, I thought to myself. How bad was this going to be anyway? When we got to our floor, Alice located one of our rooms and immeadiately we all (By that I mean everyone but me and Alice) stumbled into the suite.

Bella sat on a bed and bit her lip. Jacob paced the room frantically. Charlie rubbed his temples. Alice and I watched them nervously. Sure we had been able to collect ourselves better than the others, but we were still afraid. In fact, maybe the most out of all of them. We knew the Volturi better (or worse) than they did. After allowing them a few minutes, to relax, Alice turned to Bella.

"Are you ready?" She asked her calmly. Bella nodded her head nervously. Her heart was pounding hard in her chest. When I thought about this, I was unnerved a bit, because I realized it wouldn't be doing that for long. "Remember, memories are first to go. So concentrate hard on important things." Again, Bella nodded, not trusting to use her voice. Alice sighed and leaned in and bit Bella. Charlie and Jacob looked away. My eyes were fixed on them though, certainly glad that I wasn't doing it.

Alice stepped back and watched Bella with me for a little while. After a few minutes, we gave Charlie and Jacob first watch. I felt horrible as I saw the look in their eyes, but Alice and I had to talk. Before slipping out of the room I whispered to Jacob, "I know it's hard, but please do it for her and us." He nodded and looked into my eyes. Ugh, guilt. Alice grabbed my wrist, and we slipped into one of the other rooms so we could talk.

"Edward is coming; he saw me take Bella out of school."

I groaned. None of this was going right. "How long do you think it will take him?"

"Not too long, I'm pretty sure he'll get here before the Volturi."

"What the Volturi are coming here?"

"Maybe."

"Maybe? But what if they do? Oh my God, but Jacob and Charlie."

"I know. What do we do about that?"

"Put them in the third room?"

"Ye- no. Their smell will still be in the first room."

"Then we move Bella to the third room."

"We should do that now." Alice didn't wait and burst into the other room. "Don't touch me, Jera, or Bella," she commanded. Their faces were confused. "We can't have your scent on her...the Volturi," She explained. I scooped up Bella, her body was so hot, I almost dropped her.

"What's going on?" She asked her voice dry.

"The Volturi." It was all I needed to say.

"No," she groaned.

"Don't worry," I hushed her. "We are taking care of everything." Bella weakly ndded her head, squeezed her eyes shut, and let out a silent scream, that not even I could hear.

I carried Bella out and mentally pushed open the door to our third room. Alice was already there. I placed Bella on the giant couch Alice was standing by. Then I heard a voice. "What do you two think you're doing?" It was Edward.
