Chapter 14 Marcus

Vampire Bella's POV

The Doctor took a quick time jump, skipping the boring waiting period, but decided to stop by so we could go on another adventure. He was taking me to some other planet with good game. While I was tempted to bring my family I needed some time alone. I do like this set of Cullens, they are after all the vampire family I fell in love with in the beginning, but it was a little difficult since they aren't the family I have known for so long.

Plus I needed to get away from this Edward. I could tell he was still making plans to keep me here, run away with me to some island once this is all over and done with. I was glad I had already spoken with Alice and the Doctor about it. She had seen him doing it and I was relieved that she would help me, when the time came for my departure.

Not that I really had any idea when that would happen. It had already been six months since I am came to live with them, in this timeline. It felt strange when I think about it because we did leave the Evil Edward in my timeline, but when we return only a few minutes will have passed.

"Doctor, if this works and we put this timeline more in line with the other one, what will happen? Will this set of Cullens remember me from the past?"

"I don't think that will happen, but since I have never had experience with vampires I am not sure. The only difference I know of is that your timeline and this timeline will become one again. Aside from those that knew you, everything will be the same and the fracture will heal itself. That will keep any catastrophe from occurring and the human race will once again be able advance as it should."

"Doctor, how are we going to do, I mean how am I going to die? Fire is the only way I know of for one of my kind to really die and I don't know how I can fake that."

"Well I can use the TARDIS to extend a shield around you. That way you can step in a fire and not be burned. I can put the TARDIS on silent so no one could hear or see it. Once these Cullens see you in the fire, you disappear in the TARDIS. Then we can go back to your timeline and collect Evil Edward, I will then return him as he can't see you ever again."

"What will happen to him?"

"His memories would change. Everything that happens now would be changed in his mind. After the battle he will witness you die. I am interested in what changes he will have gone through in his thousand years since this battle, or if he just disappears, if he…"

If he kills himself, which I think is what will happen. I hate that he would do that, but if the situation was reversed I am sure I would be thinking the same thing. We finally arrive on some distant planet and I step out to see two bright suns over head. My skin was all sparkly and I could not help but admire it for a little while.

The Doctor comes out and stares at me for the first time in the sun. He saw a vampire's skin when we first arrived in Italy, but it was a little tense then.

"Fascinating." He said looking at it.

"So where are we?"

"A little planet with a lot of animals."

"I don't hear or smell any."

"A little planet with no animals."

"I am sure that will fill me up."

"Well let's see." The Doctor went back up and did a quick scan. "That is odd. It says there is no life."

"Even if you say that, what is the guy doing by the forest?"

"That is interesting. This planet is not inhabited."

"It looks like he is wearing a space suit. I am guessing he wasn't from around here."

"Makes sense, probably some lame archeologist coming to look at the past civilization of the Sarranicks." He pressed a few more buttons while I went out to say hello to another alien.

"Hi, what are you doing? Is there anything we can help you with?"

"Hello, does anyone read me?" The space man said.

"Yes I hear you, is there something wrong?"

"Hello, does anyone read me?"

I laughed, "You just said that, did you hit your head?" I was on the edge of the forest when I heard the Doctor running.

"DON'T MOVE." He yelled.

I walked into the shade of the forest and felt thousands, no millions of little teeth all over my skin.

"Hello, does anyone read me?"

"Hey, you OK? Really, what the hell are these little gnat things?"

"Bella, step in to the light, don't go in the shadows."

"What is it Doctor? What are these damn things biting at my skin?"

"Vashta Nerada, they are carnivores that hunt like the piranhas on Earth, in a swarm. They can strip a man's flesh to the bone in a second, so how is it you aren't dead?"

"Rock for skin." I replied. "Hellllo? You in there?"

"He's dead." The doctor replied. "We are leaving. We didn't come to invade your forests."

"Then why are you here Doctor?"

"Oh, you know me then?"

"Yes, we know who you are. You promised to leave us alone and yet you have returned."

"No, that was the library, which is nowhere near here. What are you talking about?"

"We left that planet and came here, aboard an expeditionary ship. You said you would not return and yet more kept coming."

"Would you please stop trying to eat me?"

"What creature is this?"

"I am a vampire."

"Is she here to burn our forest, like they did to the other one?"

"Oh, since you kept eating the people that came to your forests they burned it to the ground, destroying your forests on the library planet. You were able to get aboard a ship and leave."

"Yes, you said you would not return and yet here you are."

"I didn't know you were here. I promise I did not come to hurt you."

"And this one that we can't eat?"

"I came to feed on the animals here, but I guess you already ate them all."

"We must feed; they were the only thing on this planet when we arrived."

"Sorry Bella, looks like we'll have to find somewhere else."

"No worries." I ran out of the woods before they could bit me again. "Bye Vashta Nerada, I hope you don't eat too many people."

"We eat to live."

"I'll post a warning beacon in space. That won't keep everyone away but hopefully you can live out your days in peace." He stepped back in and looked me up and down. "Not a scratch. How is that possible?"

"Have you ever felt my skin?"

"Actually no, why?"

"Touch it." I held out my arm and he felt if for the first time. He jerked his hand back, before touching it again. "See, hard and cold, like stone."

"No wonder they couldn't eat you. Thank goodness for that. OK so next planet with predatory animals it is."

We took a quick hope to another planet and where I found a good bear like creature. It was full of blood, so much I barely finished it. I was so full afterwards I felt like I could fight the Volturi single handed. After that we headed back to the Cullens.

It was a flurry of activity as our numbers were growing by the day. We currently had 42 vampires siding with us. I was amazed and overjoyed. I didn't know how many Volturi there were in this timeline, but I was sure it couldn't be as many as the future one had.

As I walked up I saw a new vampire had arrived. He was speaking with Carlisle about Marcus. Edward was by my side in an instant, clinging to me, again.

"Carlisle, I am not sure the reason you have gathered so many here, but I need a favor. I know of a crime that was committed and need to allow Marcus to pass judgment on the criminal."

"What crime is it you speak of?" Carlisle asked. This must be the one we have been waiting on.

"Aro killed Didyme, I witnessed it. I couldn't tell Marcus at the time because Aro got to him first. I need to let Marcus know the truth and let him have his vengeance for his mate. Will you and your army stand up to the Volturi, to allow Marcus to right this grave injustice?"

"That is why we have gathered." I said.

"Who are you, I didn't see you here when I arrived."

"Nope just got back from a hunting trip."

"You hunt animals like the Cullens?"

"I am a Cullen. Bella Cullen, I'm Edward's mate."

"It is a pleasure, so you are here to give Marcus a chance at revenge, but how could you know about that?"

"Umm, that is a very complicated answer; let us just say we have our sources. So how are you going to get Marcus here alone? He is too depressed to leave Volterra for anything."

"Leave that to me." The guy made a call. "I have news on Didyme's murderer, come to Forks, Washington." Then he hung up.

"That will get him here?"

"Would it not bring you if your love was lost and no one paid for it?"

"I suppose it would."

"What can we expect now?" Carlisle asked.

"Well if goes according to plan Marcus will get that message and come straight here with a couple of his personal guard. I am sure he will join us, at which time we will need to act quickly. I have no doubts that Aro will follow soon after, attempting to stop his brother from learning the truth."

"We need to feed, so everyone is ready in a few hours." Edward said.

"Yes, feed if it has been a while. I fear that the battle will start early tomorrow."

What a horrible way to end a year. Oh well, if it keeps the world from blowing up or something that it is fine. I wonder what my other Edward is doing now? Maybe when this mess is over I'll just have the Doctor pop me back to just after the Angel touches me, well maybe one more hunting trip.

Everyone was running around. The human drinking vampires took the cars and drove all over the place, away from this area, to up hold the La Push Tribe's laws. I wonder if Jacob from my timeline is a werewolf. We never saw a wolf in my timeline, though we didn't go to Forks as we all lived as married couples for that turn. I might have to go check it out when I get back. Hopefully they won't try and kill me.

As the day wore on everyone had left to hunt and was now back. Alice had just gotten a vision of Marcus coming in 10 minutes. I guess the wolf involvement was really messing with her ability to see.

Sure enough we saw Marcus and three body guards coming out of the trees in back of the house. He showed no fear at the twenty plus vampires around the field and the smell of wolves and additional vampires at all. In fact he showed no emotions at all. The other vampires with him however were very much on edge.

Carlisle rushed out to greet him. "Marcus, sorry for having you come out like this, but there is someone that really needed to speak with you right away."

"Carlisle, it is a pleasure to see you again. So this is your home?"

"Yes, it is a pleasure to see you as well. Please come in."

Marcus entered without hesitation. After a quick round of introduction the man that knew about the murder came down from upstairs. Marcus' head turned to see who it was and his face actually looked shocked.

"Tarquin? So it is you. I will hear you out before I pass judgment."

"Marcus, father, it was not me. I know what you must have thought when I left you in your time of need and I don't know what lies Aro said, but I did not kill Didyme. I fled because I witnessed her death."

"And who was it that killed her?"

"It was Aro father; your brother killed his sister to keep you two from leaving. I heard him tell her that she will never have you and you will belong to him for all eternity."

"And I should believe a boy over my brother?"

"Father, I was the first you created, I could never lie to you."

"He speaks the truth," a girl name Maggie said. I have a gift to know when people are lying and he is not lying."

"I agree, he is telling the truth, at least his mind confirms everything he says." Edward agreed.

"I too can tell when others lie and what he says is the truth." Another vampire confirmed.

"So Tarquin, you say my own brother killed his sister, my mate, just to keep me a part of the Volturi?"

"Yes, he did not want the family divided. Had you left it would have appeared to have weakened the Volturi, something Aro would not allow."

"And you are here with this many people why?"

"To allow you your vengeance."

"No army can match the Volturi, not in over 2500 years. No matter the number the Volturi have never lost a battle."

"The only way to know for sure is to try." Emmett boosted, standing up to full height and flexing.

"You remind me of Felix, always ready for a fight."

"Aro is coming." Alice said. "He'll be here in one hour."

"I'll call Jacob."

"Everyone head to the field." Carlisle called out.

"I guess no matter what, we are going to stand and fight. I doubt many will survive, but hopefully we can weaken them a little." Marcus said; sadness was the only emotion he had right now, but it was an emotion.

"Don't worry about it Marcus. I have a good feeling we'll be fine." I said.

"Dear child, you remind me of my Didyme. I hope you are right. Some of the members of the Volturi have quite a frightening ability. I fear that even if we are brave the pain we are facing is real."

"Only if they can get in our heads."
