Fun Times in Italy

Rose POV-

So yea...Bella is being a bit of a pain. We are getting off this god forsaken plane with people glaring at us, but mostly at Alice for making Bella cry; which I did agree that was mean of her to snap at Bella.

"So how are we getting the cars?" Bella asked with an evil gleam in her eye.

Carlisle stared at her and said steadily, "I rented a few cars...?"

Bella's evil glint fell and she sighed, "Damn."

Jake and Nessie were beside me and Emmett and Nessie asked, "How come mommy wants to steal cars?"

"Because your mommy wants to send Edward to the Men in White." Emmett's wise crack remark and I slapped in the head when I saw Nessie getting upset, "OUCH! It's true!"

"Nessie, your mommy is just on a...uhm..." I searched for the right word to describe Bella. What do you tell a five year old who looks twelve that's mom is acting like a crazy person?

"She's on a crazy fix right now," Jake said. I glared as he continued, "You see she has suppressed all that craziness and after those tapes it just burst out."

"So the tapes became her happy substance?" Nessie asked slightly confused but she was buying into it.

The proper term is crack but I didn't say that so instead I said, "Yea kind of. Just go with it and she'll come back."

Nessie looked doubtful as Bella started laughing and Edward looked a little amused as they started walking toward us followed by Alice and Jasper. What the hell is going through her head? Edward shot me a quick look that said he did not even know so I shrugged.

Carlisle and Esme left us alone while they looked for the rent-a -car place. Just then we heard Bella's phone go off. She sighed and looked at the caller-ID and smirked, "City Morgue, you kill'em we chill'em this is Bella how can I help you?" she quickly pressed a button and the caller was on speaker.

"Yo Bells how is life? You here yet?" Jane's voice blared through the phone.

"Life is life depending on what you do with it and yea we just got in. Carlisle just went to get the keys for the cars." Bella said cheerfully. I suppressed the urge to growl as Bella continued, "Oh btw you are on speaker phone with the Cullens and Jakey!"

"OMG I am! This is amaztastic! HIIII!" Her piercing voice made everyone look at us weirdly.

"Hi." We all groaned back.

"What is the 411 on the enthusiasm?" Jane asked not so cheery anymore...almost disappointed.

Bella glared at us and said, "They are just cranky from the plane. You know stupid little kids that parents' let them go wild."

"Oh I see ok cool! Well how much longer you gonna be B?" Jane asked.

"Uhm...I'd say a few minutes." She responded

"Ok cool. Hey I gotta go. TTYL." Jane said

"TTFN!" Bella replied then she hung up and still glared at us, "Ok can you lay off please? They are trying to make nice, nice with us."

We all growled at her except for Edward and Nessie who gave her a look. She glared back like a mother scolding her kid. We let up and sighed, "Fine." But I still am not trusting them. Edward nodded slightly at me. I guess he agreed.

Bella gave us a disapproved look as Carlisle and Esme came back. Carlisle had the set of keys in his hand and he started to call them out, "Ok here is the key to the Porsche," Alice snatched from his hand.

"MINE!" She yelled and pulled Jasper to the side waiting for us.

Carlisle sighed but continued, "Jeep." Emmett raised his hand and pulled me to go with him.

"Audi." Jake took it and looked to Edward who nodded reluctantly. He smiled and gently took Nessie's hand and stood over by us.

"Volvo." Edward grabbed it and tried to pull Bella but she didn't budge. He looked at questioningly.

"Mustang." Bella smiled and took the key from Carlisle.

"Wait you're not driving with me?" Edward pouted, "You always drive with me..." He actually looked hurt. In fact we were all questioning her sanity.

Bella shrugged, "I guess I was in the mood for my Mustang."

"Wait your Mustang?" I asked.

"Yea how else did Aro know what cars you wanted?" Bella asked

"Wait Aro set this up?" Edward asked looking from her to Carlisle.

"Yes he said that he had everything taken care of." Carlisle confirmed.

"He is trying to be helpful," Esme supplied.

"But rewind...your Mustang?" I questioned again, "The one we saw on the tape?"

Bella nodded, "Yea. When I was coming to Forks I wanted to have it shipped over but I decided to keep it in Phoenix because the house is still in my mother's name. They never sold it. It was so that if I ever wanted to move back there one day I would have some where to go to. Besides nearly everything is in my name still. The mortgage, the car, the life insurance, both mine and Renee's bank crap. Anyway after all the drama watching the videos I missed my car so I had the car shipped to Charlie and I took everything out and then I sent it here. Felix and Demetri fixed it up. They were going to send it back but this trip came up and I said keep it here."

I was hurt now, "But why not let me fix it up and re-tune it for you?"

Bella sighed, "Don't be hurt Rose. Sorry for not going to you but they wanted to see it and they needed a project. You were busy with Carlisle's car at the time and you own car."

I nodded and sighed. We started to make our way out. It was cloudy so that was a good sign and we saw the cars waiting for us. Bella squealed with joy when she saw the Black 2004 GT Mustang. It certainly did look different than in the videos.

We all went up to it and I even whistled, "Damn it does look hot."

"I know. This was my baby." Bella sighed and I swear I heard Nessie 'humph' in response while glaring at the car.

"Can I?" I asked looking at her. Bella nodded, "It's the least I can do."

She gave me the key and it roared to life. I gotta admit it to Felix and Demetri know their stuff. I opened the hood and made sure that everything looked ok I turned to Bella, "You are good to go."

Bella smiled and jumped in. Rolling down her window she said, "When I was talking to Jane earlier this week she said we can take the scenic route. Wanna do that? Apparently that road is for 'personnel' only."

"Sure." Carlisle said getting into the Mercedes, "I know the way. We keep going down this road and it's like a straight shot right? It just makes a circle."

Bella nodded, "That is what she told me."

"Ok then let's go." Carlisle pulled out followed by Alice and Jasper, then Jake and Nessie. Edward pulled up and we heard him say, "You going to be ok love?"

"Yup." Bella smiled putting on sunglasses. He sighed and drove away.

Emmett pulled up, "You sure you want to be alone sis?"

Bella smirked...oh no I do not like that smirk, "You wanna race Em?"

He smiled and I said, "No!"

"Come on Rosie please. Like she can beat us in that. Yea sure you're on sis." He retorted.

"Fine go and I bet I can beat you." Bella said.

"You're on!" He sped off I looked behind us to see Bella still sitting.

I sighed, "I cannot believe you are doing this." I moaned.

"Why not like she can pass us at this rate." He scoffed.

I sighed. After two minutes of driving I hear the roar of an engine and horns blaring then sure enough I see the black mustang weaving in and out of the traffic. She pulled up to the side of us and beeped her horn. Emmett was letting off a stream of curse words as she cut him off.

"You were saying?" I asked and he cursed.

Edward POV-

It was weird without having Bella in the car with me. I really wish she was here...I had my window rolled down and smelled the fresh air of the Voltaire country side. I had just started to relax and enjoy it when I heard a roar of an engine and the blaring of a horn. I looked in the review mirror and saw a black mustang...Bella's mustang.

She pulled up beside me and saluted me then cut me off and sped off. What the hell does she think she is doing? Then I saw a red jeep coming up on my tail...Emmett.

He pulled up beside me Rose shook her head at me as he started to pull forward to cut me off and catch up with Bella.

Oh my god...I started to punch it to take off after them.

Jake POV-

I had to admit this area was nice. Not too much traffic out and it was relatively quiet. Someday I will perhaps take Nessie to this place and this could be our own little escape...

"Hey Jake what is that noise?" Nessie asked pulling me out of my thoughts. It was a good thing Edward was not with us.

"I don't hear anything." But as soon as I said that I heard horns blaring and the roar of an engine.

Bella was coming up next to us and she looked determined.

"MOM?" Nessie yelled out the window. Bella waved at us and honked her horn and she then cut us off and sped off.

"What the hell?" I yelled blaring the horn at Bella. She is crazy?

Just then there was a jeep that came up and it was Blondie and Emmett. Emmett looked mad and Rose looked pissed. He whaled his horn at us and took off after Bella.

"Come on Jake punch it! We have to follow them!" Nessie yelled. I nodded and started to speed up then I saw Edward, he looked pissed.

He narrowed in pulled in front of us. I sped up wondering what the hell was happening.

Jasper POV-

My Alice was driving and singing to Lady Gaga's Telephone. I love it when she is happy. But that changed when I felt weird vibes. We started to approach a sharp turn when out of know where Bella pulled next to us.

"What the hell?" Alice yelled also noticing. The turn that was coming up and it was narrow...more or less for one car to fit. Behind Bella we noticed the Jeep, the Volvo, and the Audi all coming up fast.

"Dude what the hell is she doing?" I yelled now clinging to the dashboard.

Alice glanced at my side to look at Bella. Bella looked her way and I got determination swept through me.

Bella smirked as the turn was nearing then out of nowhere Bella's car picked up a burst of speed and nitro gas smoked from the back end as she nearly side swiped us and sped off as we rounded the corner.

Alice jerked the car to the side and pulled over to look at the Porsche. We watched as Emmett, Jake, and Edward continued to follow.

"You ok?" I asked Alice stepping out of the also.

"I AM NOT OK! SHE GOT MUD ON MY CAR!" Alice jumped in and sped off leaving me on the side of the road...I guess I am running.

Esme-

We were nearing the castle. It was good to go on a family vacation once in a while, "Did Aro say what exactly he wanted us here for?"

"Nope just the fact that he wanted to reconcile our friendship and talk to him about the diet and what not. Why?" He asked.

"Just that the kids are not too happy...and Bella has been a little strange too." I commented. I was a little worried about her.

"I am sure she is fine. Probably just going through a phase. As long as she does nothing reckless and stupid she should be fine." He commented, "Now stop worrying."

I heard a roaring engines coming up fast and noticed it was Bella's car and closely followed by Emmett, Edward, Jake, and then Alice, "Honey?"

"Yes?"

"Can I start worrying now?" I asked

"Why?"

I looked at him and pointed behind us. He gasped as he glanced in the mirror, Bella pulled aside us and tailing her was Emmett and he looked pissed. Further behind was Jake, Edward, and Alice. It was then I noticed Jasper was running alongside Alice. Bella did not even look at us and we gasped as she looked around and jerked the wheel causing her to spin out and Emmett to jam on the brakes who started sliding into us. Carlisle also turned the wheel and turned so that Emmett didn't crash into us and he missed us.

It was then we noticed that Bella was spinning right into the Castel.

Bella POV-

I was out of control, or that is what it looked like. Chase used to give me lessons on racing. Yea we got into some underground racing in Phoenix...it was a blast! He had my Mustang modified so it could do what it did best...go ultrafast.

So yea I did that on purpose so Emmett would back off. He had started to tailgate me and blocked me in to Carlisle and Esme. I had spun out when I gave them enough time to back away from Emmett.

I pulled up on the emergency brake and came to a screeching halt in front of the Castel. The wheels of the car was smoking and I stepped out of the car, "OH YEA! THE IMMORTAL PHOENIX LIVES ON! BOOM BADA BOOM!"

Emmett stepped out and said, "YOU CHEATED!"

"Suck it Emmett! You are a sore loser!" I gave him the loser sign and before he could approach me the others pulled up.

As Edward was about to come at me Alice got to me first screaming, "ISABELLA MARIE SWAN CULLEN I-"

The doors banged open and there stood Aro, Marcus, and Caius. She let go of me as Aro spoke, "Welcome my friends to Voltaire!"

Oh yea the fun has now officially started.
