Hey guys! Sorry for not updating in a while but i have been really busy. I couldn't update on Christmas because it was Christmas day! Then my parents and I went down to England to stay with family! That wasn't fun. OK maybe some parts of it were fun but other parts not so much! Especially when you are sharing a house with two young kids who are intent on bursting the ear drums of everyone in the house by screaming. I love kids but not when they through tantrums that last from two to three hours! Anyway here is the new chapter. I hope you enjoy it and could you please review XD

I do not own Twilight or any of it's characters :(

'So we've been raided, outnumbered and now cornered,

It's hard to fight when the fight ain't fair,

We're getting stronger now from things they never found,

They might be bigger but we are faster and never scared.'

Taylor Swift - Change

Everyone was tense when Jake and I stepped into my living room. Daddy was pacing up and down, mummy was watching him closely, Aunt Rose looked like a statue, Aunt Alice had her head in her hands, Uncle Jasper was rubbing her back, Uncle Emmet wasn't his usual smiling self, Grandpa was standing with his eyes closed – with his back against the wall – and Grandma was watching Daddy pace. This was weird, everyone was too quiet.

'Who died?' I asked, and then when I saw the expression on my Daddy's face I began to panic. 'Oh my God! Who died?!'

'No one sweetie, everyone's fine.' Mummy told me in a quiet voice, I didn't believe her. Everyone was not fine.

'Mum look around you. Everyone is not fine. Now what is going on?!'

'Ness,' my daddy sighed, playing for time. 'We need to talk.'

What was going on? No one says 'we need to talk' unless (A) they are breaking up with you (B) you are in serious trouble or (C) something was wrong and I wasn't going to like it.

'What is it?' I asked sounding braver than I felt.

'Sam's pack called me to a meeting,' Jake answered me before Daddy could say anything. 'They had to tell me something that affects all of us. Maybe you should sit down.' He looked at me with concern.

'No, I'm ok standing.' He sighed and closed his eyes for a second.

'Ok. When Sam was out running he came across a scent, a fresh one.' I frowned, how was this important? 'It was a vampire scent.' He stopped again, waiting for me to react in some way but my expression stayed confused. 'He called me because it wasn't one of the Cullen's it was someone else's.' I was beginning to put the pieces together. 'I went and the scent was familiar but I couldn't place it so we called Edward and he recognized it.'

'Ok, who was it?' I asked even though I knew who it was I just needed to hear someone else say it so that I was sure that I wasn't just making assumptions. Again.

'Ness, it was the Volturi.' I knew it!

Wait, this was the Volturi! Oh, oh no no no no! What did they want? Would they hurt me? More importantly, would they hurt my family? Jake? No, they couldn't! They would if my family got in the way, which they would. Oh, no! They might not be looking for me! Yeah, that's right, their just passing through. Oh, who was I kidding? Of course they were after me! I couldn't let them hurt my family. Maybe if I went and met them, by myself of course, then they would leave my family alone! What if they aren't just after me? What if they want my family as well?

Through my internal panic Jake became more and more panicked about my reaction.

'Is that all? Gosh, I thought it was going to be that someone died. The Volturi are no big deal.' I pretended that I didn't care and that I wasn't really scared.

Some of them believed me.

'Do you mind if I go get changed? I got a bit wet.'

'Sure honey.' My mummy smiled at me.

I had most of them fooled. Only Uncle Jasper and Daddy knew how I really felt. I saw them out of the corner of my eye watching me closely, looking for any sings that I would break down. I would keep it together, for my family. For Jake.

I turned my i-pod on and walked over to my over stuffed wardrobe. I pulled a pair of jeans on and my 'let's go green' t shirt with Oscar from Sesame Street. My hair was a hopeless mess so I pulled it up and into a ponytail. I tried to keep myself busy to stop myself thinking. It was working so far then a line in the song that was playing caught my attention.

'You know it's all the same, another time and place. Repeating history and you're getting sick of it.'

It was true. History was repeating itself, the Volturiwere after me (again) and I was fed up of being scared of them like I had been my whole life.

'You can walk away and say we don't need this. But there's something in your eyes says we can beat this.'

Jake could walk away at any point, any of my family could but they would stick with me help me fight – if it came to a fight.

'Tonight we stand up off our knees to fight for what we've worked for all these years. And the battle was long; it's the fight of our lives. Will we stand up champions tonight?'

The first 'fight' was long and we won! Maybe we could do that again! There was no need for me to be scared, we could do this! When the Volturi came knocking they won't know what hit them! They will be expecting a cowering mess and we will stand up and face them head on! Yeah! We would be champions!

Wow, I really need to calm down I am beginning to sound a bit cheesy. I smiled.

My bedroom door slowly opened and the most wonderful, gorgeous, handsome, gorgeous, strong, gorgeous, generous (and did I mention gorgeous?) man stepped into my room. I smiled at him cheekily, he looked confused. I lunged myself at him and kissed him full on the mouth. He seemed a bit surprised but he recovered and responded with so much passion that I would have fallen over if he hadn't been holding me up.

'Jake and Nessie sitting in a tree. K – I – S – S – I – N – G.'

My uncle Emmet sang before I heard him yelping. Aunt Rose had obviously smacked him in the back of his head. I smiled against Jake's lips.

Same old, same old.

Reveiw please. (Puppy dog eyes)
