Hey everyone, I know it's been a while, but I've had school to get through. Last term though and I'm really excited!

You can skip this part. It's a moan.

So lets get this over with. I can see the numbers, but what I don't see is the reviews! I need reviews to keep me going and writing this fic, otherwise I think that no one is actually reading this fic.

Now that that's done, lets read!

Previously: I looked over to Edward and our eyes locked for a what felt like eternity and sighed, I could never stop getting lost in his eyes. "I would do anything to protect my mate and child" I said still looking at the topaz orbs, known as Edward Cullen's eyes. Edward nodded at me and gave me a sad smile. I knew he was sorry, all I needed was answers.

Would I be able to trust him again?

Would I be able to look at him the same way?

Would I still love him or did that love disappear when he left?

But there was still a question I desperately needed the answer for.

Why?

xXx

A silence passed through each of us and the room suddenly became suffocating. I broke off Edward's gaze and shot a look of understanding at Apollo.

He did what he did because of love, not because he was being the stupid oaf I know and love. I guess I can relate to that. I left Olympus because I couldn't handle the responsibility and choices of being a Goddess. I wanted an easy life as a human, as a mortal. Sure, I had a few relationships with some older demigods even some minor gods, but I had never found my soul mate and an immortal life without love just wasn't... whole.

I left to Fall in love, get married... raise a family, like any average mortal would do. I learnt a few thing's whilst living in the small town of Forks and being with the Cullen's. One of them was love. They all had a special bond with their mates that made them inseparable. They would do anything to protect and care for each other. The other thing I learnt was family. Their loyalty was to their family. No matter what happens, family always comes first.

Apollo had a vampire turn Alice for her own safety. He loved his family and Sophia was his one and only true love and for that, I adore him. It's hard for someone you love to leave you, but it's harder to let someone you love go.

"What is going on? How do you know me and how do you know so much about my past? Why do you know so much stuff about my mum?" Alice was freaking out.

"Alice. This is you father" I pointed at Apollo "Your father, Apollo; God of the sun"

"You guys must be joking, you are joking, right?"

"Yeah... No. Alice this big idiot really is your father and I guess that makes you my... niece too! Wow this is like some really awkward family reunion"

Jasper and Emmett chuckled.

"He looks the same age as me!" Alice exclaimed- rather loudly if I do say so myself.

"I could change to make me look like I would do if I were a mortal," Apollo offered ",but be warned... I'll probably be a pile of dust"

I chuckled dryly. "Yeah, I guess I would be too".

Alice didn't look too good "You would too?! Bella, What are you? You said that I would be your niece, wouldn't that make you hundreds of years old? Maybe even older than the Volturi"

"Oh, definitely older than the Volturi, that's for sure. Older than all of them put together probably. It's kinda sad really" I sighed "I'm Isabella, twin sister of Aphrodite. I'm the Goddess of power, magic, detection and demigods, not necessarily in that order"

Alice didn't look sure.

"Then why haven't we heard of you before?" Esme asked, curiously.
I was about to answer, but Rosalie beat me to it "Because she erased herself with the mist from mortals and creatures alike. Before you ask, the mist is something that changes the perspective of something in a mortal beings eyes"

"Does this mean you knew about Bella the whole time she was with us?" Emmett sounded hurt.

"I knew I was a demigod before I was changed, unlike Alice, so I remembered everything about my past. When Bella came to Forks, I thought she was going to tell you about me that's why I was so mean to her. I didn't want any of you to know because I still had a demigod scent on me and I could still attract monsters. I just wanted to keep you all safe. You guys are my family" Emmett held Rosalie impossibly close to him and she dry sobbed against his chest.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Edward asked me.

"Same reason as Rose, I couldn't do that. I couldn't harm your family" I said honestly.

He looked shocked for a moment but then his features softened into sadness.

"Bellsy here, didn't want to hurt your precious vampire feelings, so she kept our secret from you" Apollo sounded like he was back to normal. That idiot. He knows Edward has a temper.

Edward growled and I shot him a glare

"I don't want you two to fight. If you want to fight, you'll have to defeat me first"

"I'm all for it little sis!"

Edward growled loudly but I ignored him and smirked at Apollo "Your on! How about we do it now, outside so EVERYBODY can see you lose!"

"Deal"

The Cullen's didn't look to sure about my decision but I gave them a reassuring smile. I waited for all of the Cullen's to leave before I walked out myself.

"Bella you could get hurt." Edward said protectively.

I stopped in my tracks. I thought I was alone "Not as much as you hurt me when left." I muttered, knowing fully well that he could hear me, and followed everyone outside.

Edward ran to my side and walked along with me "You know I didn't mean it".

"And you know I don't care".

He grabbed my wrist, giving me no choice to look at him. "If you didn't care, you wouldn't have come back".

"I came back to tell you the truth and maybe, just maybe, I had hoped you would give me answers"

"I can't give you answers if you try to kill yourself!" he defended.

"I'm not going to kill myself Edward!" I shouted back at him "I'm immortal. I can't die even if I tried!" I said bitterly.

"You've tried?!" He asked in disbelief.

"Why wouldn't I? You left me, didn't you?"

"I left to give you a chance at a normal life!" he said angrily.

"Look at me Edward!"

He scoffed

"Look at me! I'm not normal, I'm an ancient Greek Goddess for gods sake! Look me in the eye and say that I'll be able to have a normal life!"

He looked towards the woods behind me and stayed quiet.

"Exactly! I'm not normal, and you know it!"

"I thought you were a mortal!"

"Well there's a lot you didn't, and still don't, know about me!" I yanked my wrist from Edwards grip and ran, at a speed identical to a newborn vampire, to the massive arena that was getting filled up with people.
I was really mad and I think it showed because as I entered the arena, all the demigods were looking at me, terrified. I looked around the semicircular, roofless arena. To my left were the Cullen's looking fearful for my life and to my right were Percy, Nico, Thalia, Annabeth, Grover and Silena. The rest of the room was filled with Huntresses as well as campers and camp directors. I couldn't see Mr D or Chiron so I suspected that Artemis was incharge. She was always more reliable when it came to looking after the camp.

"Calm down everybody!" Artemis walked into the middle of the arena and everybody quietened down to hear what she had to say. She turned to us with a tired expression "You both know the rules. You can use both your powers and the only way to win is to knock your opponent out. Oh and if you end up killing each other, uncle will not be pleased"

"I learnt that the hard way" Apollo mumbled and I chuckled.

"Let's just get this over and done with"

"You ready to get your Godly butt kicked?" He got into his starting position and grinned.

"You ready to take another trip back to see uncle Hades?" I grinned widely and summoned a flame to my hand, causing the Cullen's to flinch.

The Cullen's!

"Hold on Apollo, I need to do something"

He grunted but got out of his fighting stance. I ran towards the Cullen's and frowned "How long has it been since you guys went hunting?" I asked, dead serious.

"Three days" Carlisle answered.

"Holy Hades" I cursed "Do you still want to watch?"

"Heck yeah! Bella fighting, I'm all eyes!" Emmett shouted.

I groaned "I'm giving you three seconds to change your minds"

"Why would we do that?" a southern drawl came from behind me.

"Because if one of us gets injured, the smell of our blood would be too much for you to handle" I gave an apologetic look to Jasper and he nodded sadly in remembrance of my 'eighteenth' birthday.

"Sorry, Bella" he apologized.

"Don't worry about it. Blame my parents, their the reason my blood smells so good" I said jokingly.

Unfortunately, my dad failed to see the humor in my little joke, and the sky turned dark while lightning crackled above us.

"Sorry dad!" I yelled to sky and immediately, the sky turned blue and the sun came out.

"I'll give you a choice" They didn't say anything so I took it as a sign to keep going "I could let you out of camp early so you can hunt," Esme, Carlisle, Emmett and Alice looked sad at that option ",or you could let me put a shield around you so you can't smell the blood". Everybody looked more than happy when I suggested that option.

"That'll be great, Bella" Esme said.

I smiled and turned to face the rest of the crowd "If you aren't a Cullen, close your eyes!" They all obeyed and I turned my attention back to the Cullen's.

"What exactly are you going to do?" Carlisle asked, curious.

"Just something I've been practicing on lately. Could you all hold hands and go in a circle but leave a space for me to join"

They all did as I said and when they were done I saw that the space left was between Alice and Edward. I groaned inwardly, causing Alice, Emmett, Jasper and Apollo to chuckle. I glared at him "Glad to know you've gone against me too, brother!"

"Now now Isabella, how could you think so lowly of me? Your own brother?" He feigned hurt and I sent a blast of cold air at him, making him shiver.

I took hold of Alice's small hand and hesitantly took Edward's in my own. I shivered at the warm feeling but hid it with a look of disgust. I think Edward felt it to because his eyes became wide and he tightened his grip slightly. Jasper shook his head at both at us, obviously registering our feelings.

"What ever happens, do not let go" I warned.

They nodded and I shut my eyes in concentration. When I opened my eyes, we were inside an invisible shield.

"Wow" Emmett said, dumbly. I giggled at his open mouthed expression.

"How'd you-?"

"Magic" I gave him a smile and walked out of the shield.

"Can we do that? Walk out of the shield, I mean" Edward asked.

"Yes. But please don't. Once you walk out you can't come back in. If we are injured the smell of blood will become too overwhelming for you."

They nodded in agreement and I headed back down to the centre of the arena.

"You can open your eyes now!" I yelled. All the demigods did as they were told.

I got into a fighting stance, as did Apollo. "Ready to see uncle early?"

"If I'm going to hell you're coming with me"

"Wouldn't bet on it, Apollo"

"Oh yeah, why?"

If possible, my grin widened "Because uncle Hades likes me better".
