Emmett POV

I had to stop when I reached Seattle; I needed to think about my priorities.

Bella and Edward were very close to me. I don't know how I would ever be able to function without them in my life, but I needed Rose. True, she is a selfish bitch, but she is my selfish bitch. I can't just let her go by herself to join the Volturi.

Ughh! Why is this so difficult?? My thoughts are all scrambled in every which way in indecision. Then I finally came to one conclusion.

I love Rose far too much to let the family come between us. I have known this all along; ever since I first came to live with them.

In one swift motion, I pulled out my cell phone and dialed up my wife's number. She picked up in one ring.

"Are you coming?" she asked.

"I'll be there as soon as I can, baby. I love you too much to let you leave," I told her. I heard her sigh into the phone as the relief spilled throughout her body.

"Good. I was beginning to think you no longer felt that way." I laughed boisterously.

"Never." I hung up the phone before she said anything else and resumed running towards the airport.

Alice POV

"No, he's joined them too. I saw it. This family is falling apart with every second that flies by," I sobbed into Jasper's neck. Everyone around me shifted uncomfortably upon hearing of Emmett's decision. Renesmee looked more distraught than she had before, but there was a slight change in her mood. It was either hate or betrayal.

"I say we go there and take back my parents. We kill anyone who gets in our way, including Emmett and Rosalie," she spat. We all stared at her fuming face in astonishment. She loved her aunt and uncle so much. She couldn't possibly mean that.

"Sweetie, I know that you are angry, but that is not the answer. Rose and Emmett are our family. We cannot harm them even if what they have done is retched," said Esme. Nessie glared at her.

"What else are we supposed to do? Wait here while they torture my Mom and Dad??" I was just about to try to comfort her when I was pulled into another vision.

"We would rather die then join your clan," Edward growled.

"An appealing idea, Edward, but your gifts are far too impressive to let go to waste. I think I will try one last thing..." He glanced over to where Jane was standing and nodded. She smiled and ran out of the room. Bella began screaming and wailing when Jane returned with Renesmee in her arms.

"Let me go!" she screamed. Jane fixed her eyes on her and immediately she fell to the floor in agony.

"Please stop, Aro. Please," Bella sobbed. Edward wrapped his arms around her waist in a comforting gesture.

Over Nessie's shrieks Aro said, "Only if you join us. If not..." he paused, smiling devilishly at Renesmee, "..then you will never see your precious daughter again. I will give you time to think it over," he said and turned on his heel. "Jane, enough." She grudgingly pulled away and grasped her by the hair and dragged her out, cackling to herself.

Rosalie stepped cautiously over to where Edward sat holding a sobbing Bella. "Bella I-"

"I don't want to talk to you, bitch!" Bella screeched.

"Please, I never thought they would bring Nessie into this. Please know that me and Emmett will do everyt-"

"Emmett?? Emmett is here??" Edward roared. "God, is the rest of the family against us too?" he asked while standing up. "I swear, Rosalie, if you hurt our daughter, I will personally rip you to pieces and burn the remains," he hissed. "Now get out of here, me and Bella have things to discuss." She nodded abruptly and walked out of the room.

The fog from the vision began to evaporate. When it was completely dissolved, I found that everyone was staring at me. "What did you see, Alice?" Jasper asked.

"Nessie, they are planning on using you as bait. We have to get you somewhere safe," I said while rising to my feet.

"What?" Nessie asked. "I'm not going into hiding! If its me they want, then they shall get it!" she screeched. She proceeded to run out the door, but Jasper was swifter. He pinned her to the floor in the blink of an eye. Nessie began wailing and kicking furiously. Jacob ran over and started cooing soft words in her ear while stroking her forehead.

"Take her upstairs please, Jacob. Alice, we need to talk," Carlisle said, not meeting my eyes. I nodded and followed him to him to his office, Jasper trailing behind us.

We sat down across from him and he said, "Alice, tell me exactly what you saw." I told him every detail from Aro's cold voice and proposition, to Rosalie and Edward's quarrel. When I finished, Carlisle remained quiet and thoughtful. "He said they had things to discuss?" he asked. I nodded. "How did he say it?" Suddenly, the realization hit me.

"He said it like... he was about to face his death." I said weakly. Jasper grasped my hand and squeezed encouragingly. I looked up at him and smiled in a way of telling him it was OK.

"What are we going to do?" Jasper asked. Carlisle sighed and shook his head.

"We have to get Ness somewhere safe. Jacob can take her to Canada or someplace else... anywhere but here. And we need to go have a visit with my old friend, Aro."
