AN: Hello! I'm back! (finally) I know most people have probably totally forgotten about this story by now.

ANYWAY This chapter contains the long awaited fight scene! So please read it and tell me how I did. (This means you have to review, people) It's all in Celeste's POV, and probably will be for the remainder of the story, only one or two more chapters left.

Also, I want to know if anyone is interested in a prequel. It would be about Celeste, Parker and Jasper while they were still human and what happened with their Dad and more about their siblings. If you want one, please let me know, because I'm not going to write it unless people are going to read it.

On with the story. Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight, and actually I left out Alec's power in this because I wrote the first half before I finished Breaking Dawn (so don't kill me)

(Edit: This chapter's contents were updated 08-26-09)

Celeste's POV

Felix and Alec dove towards Emmet, growls ripping from their throats. Emmet met them halfway, Rosalie at his side.

That was all it took for the rest of us to start moving. We branched out, attacking our silently chosen opponents. I grinned internally as I danced toward Demetri, leaving Parker to take on another goon. I bowled into him from behind, knocking him to the ground.

I flipped over gracefully and charged again, a grin plastered onto my face. He growled menacingly and met me halfway, throwing kicks and punches as he tried to get a hold of my form so he could rip me apart.

I didn't really pay attention to what the others where doing. I was having too much fun. However weird it may be to say that, I was. Besides, I had faith in my companions. Jasper and Parker especially.

Demetri snarled as I dashed out of his reach again. "You know something, Blondie?"

Blondie? Oh this conversation wasn't going to end well. I snarled as Alec headed started toward me from behind, slipping away from Emmet and Rosalie, who where close to finishing off Felix.

"Hey, Blondie, I'm talking to you."

I growled in the back of my throat. "Well, you picked a wonderful time for a conversation."

He grinned, and dove toward me again. "I think it's a perfect time. You see, you're pretty good at this Blondie. It's a shame you're on the wrong side. I'm sure if you wanted to cross the line, we could find a place for you. You could even stay in my room." He winked at me.

I've never snarled at someone with that much malice in my entire life. I rushed at him. No more playing around, he was a dead man…vampire.

Something collided with me, knocking me out of the air. I'd forgotten about Alec.

I twisted in his grip as he lifted me off the ground, feral complaints ripping from my throat. There was no way these idiots were going to take me down.

Before I could try and turn around and scratch his eyes out, something smashed into Alec, tearing him from my body and tackling him to the ground in one swift movement.

Demetri stared, wide-eyed, as Parker ripped Alec to pieces. A few of the others had also stopped to look. It was the first fatality of the fight.

He stood up and glared at Demetri as he walked towards me. I just stared at him in amazement, dumbfounded at the sudden display of violence. I grinned slowly, my mind picking up speed. I hadn't seen him fight like that since the Civil War.

He wrapped his arms around me from behind. His face buried into my back with his eyes glaring sharply over my shoulder at Demetri. The man looked like a child defending his favorite toy.

"Stay the hell away from my wife asshole."

I'm not sure whose face was more priceless. Parker's, Demetri's, or Jasper's.

Demetri recovered quickly and rushed toward Parker and I, Parker met him half way and I growled under my breath. Bastard. He took my fight.

I saw Jane going after Jasper out of the corner of my eye. I grinned, and let my anger take over. Fire sprouted from my hands and I lit the separated remains of Alec on fire as I sprinted toward Jane.

Alice pulled Jasper out of the way as I dashed under his shoulder, catching Jane in the stomach. She screeched at me as we traded blows for a few short seconds. It didn't take long for pain to rip through my body. Even with my pain threshold I sank to my knees.

But Jane was already burning, and the pain ended quickly.

Emmet knocked me over as I got up; he yelled a strangled 'sorry' as he rolled by. He and Edward were in the middle of a four-way wrestling match between two of the goons. I snarled after them as I stood up again, feeling Parker's thoughts intruding on mine.

"Are you okay?"

I scowled. "No, I'm a burning pile of ashes."

"Celeste, please don't joke about that."

I felt guilty as I heard the distress in his thoughts. "I'm sorry, I'm just pissed off."

He chuckled softly. "I know," and I felt the link disappear.

I looked around, searching for another opponent. I scowled when I realized everyone was pretty much taken. The fight had started off nine to seven. Parker had dispatched Alec, and I'd taken care of Jane. Emmet and Rosalie had ripped Felix to shreds after Alec had left to attack me.

That left nine to four.

Wait…started off with seven? Hadn't Alice said there would be eight?

I sniffed the air and glanced around. I ran through the faces I'd seen as they'd stood calmly on the lawn. Felix, Demetri, Alec, Jane, Santiago, Corin, Renata…still just seven? I thought harder, it didn't seem like Alice was the type of person to be wrong. There had to be someone missing, there was no way the Volturi went up against the Cullen's with the odds against them; they had to have an ace in the hole hidden somewhere.

I sniffed the air again, this time looking for any unfamiliar scent, someone not on our original greeting party. I stiffened when I found it followed the path of another, more human scent.

"Edward!"

He stopped and looked up at me. His eyes widened and he snarled as he read my thoughts. I wasn't a mind reader, but even I knew we were thinking the same thing.

How had we missed that?

Edward took off, racing into the woods. I followed close behind, the fire in my veins leaking onto my fingertips.

Edward and I tore through the forest, following the scent. We were running faster than the unnamed vampire had, slowly catching up.

We slowed down as we approached the clearing, trying to be as silent as possible. The vampire was standing in the middle, talking with Bella. They were arguing about something.

I almost laughed. What a fantastic human. She had managed to sidetrack the goon, and bought us some time.

I glanced at Edward, telling him my plan in my head. He nodded, but his eyes were only for Bella. I smiled to myself; they were so in love.

I circled around to the south side of the clearing, until I was right behind Bella. I crouched down, glancing at Edward to make sure nothing had changed. He gave me a short nod and I lunged.

I jumped over Bella and collided with the vampire at the waist, knocking him to the ground. I was up on my feet in an instant, ready to attack again.

He snarled as he stood, realizing that Bella was gone. The moment I'd moved, so had Edward. He'd scooped up Bella and run, the unknown goon had no hope of catching them now.

He turned towards me, furry in his eyes. "That wasn't very nice you know. I don't like it when people take away my meals."

I snarled in return. "Sorry, but you can't get everything you want."

He laughed, and it sent a shiver down my spine. There was something about him that threw me off. I would never admit it allowed but he terrified me and I was suddenly wishing desperately Parker would come to fight with me.

The vampire cocked his head to side, thinking about something. His face lit up as he remembered. "I know you! You're that girl he was so in love with." He laughed some more. "You're the reason I let him live you know. A love like yours doesn't come around every century, even in the vampire world. I wanted to see what it would do to him if he wasn't able to be with you. But, apparently he somehow found the self-control to change you. A minor set back, easily fixed."

I took a half step backwards, my whole body recoiling in recognition. My fight or flight instinct, so securely set on fight was now pointing in firmly in the opposite direction. I knew who it was now: the vampire who had hunted and changed Parker. "Gaston."

Gaston grinned, stepping forward.

I was both murderously angry and more terrified than I had ever been in my entire existence.
