Thank you all so much for your reviews.

I am wondering whether to have Victoria return but I would like to ask you what you want.

Should Victoria return for her vengeance against Bella and Edward? Leave answer in review please.

Meet the parents (well kind of.)

Methos gave Bella an encouraging hug before he left and told her to call him if anyone challenged her again as he had found a lovely new place to live while he was in town. Bella knew about Methos, he enjoyed the richer things in life. Bella had only just realised what a mess had been created by her fight with Credo. Her eyes zoomed on the blood that now covered her wooden floors; she guessed it was time for a mop and bleach.

A few miles away

Lydia Ven as she was now known was sobbing in front the open fire she had put on hoping for her lover to return, more powerful than before. Credo was dead. She knew it in her heart when she felt the quickening happen. The target was not powerful as far as the couple could tell so when the power from the quickening was felt Lydia knew Credo had lost the battle.

"Bella Dawson is going to feel my blade go through every part of her before I slice my vengeance from her head. I swear to you Credo she will not survive my plan." Lydia vowed as she caressed her wedding ring hoping to once again feel her Credo.

Edward Cullen

The family decided to retire to their rooms after the meeting to try and calm the atmosphere. Alice being her usual self decided to go to Edward and ask him about the kiss. Edward didn't need his mind reading ability to know she was coming.

Edward was reading Bella's old copy of Romeo and Juliet even though he had scanned the word with the book a thousand times. It was a phase he had developed after Bella went missing. After Charlie had left the house one night to go see Billy Black, Edward sneaked into Bella's room which had not been touched and took a few of her books. He also remembered the items he had placed beneath her floor boards when he departed, hidden within the items lay a photo of him and Bella which was still in his pocket to this day.

A sudden burst of air presented Alice. She was sat opposite Edward jittery with excitement wanting every emotion and feeling to be told to her so she had the memory forever with all the details.

"Alice why must you be such a freak" laughed Edward.

"It's my job to be the weird one in the family besides you know I want to know even if I did see it." Alice squeaked.

"Why do you want to know anyway? You need to keep your nose out of other people's business."

"Bella isn't crystal clear to me anymore; her immortality makes her future very erratic. You both were slightly blurring in my vision. It was like looked through a pair of glasses that aren't right for you."

"It was great and worth the century I had to wait. She's destroyed the cold hearted monster that I thought I would remain. I'm just worried that I might lose her again" Edward relented.

"Edward, don't focus on thoughts like that. I don't want to have a dreary grieving brother all over again. No offence Edward but you've been a bit of a bore over the last century" Alice joked giving Edward a small punch of encouragement.

Edward was thankful that Alice was a freak. Little sisters were meant to annoy their brothers but at the same time they were there to give them the life that they needed.

"Esme and Carlisle are going on a hunt, I was thinking of joining them. Do you want to join the hunt?"

Alice didn't have a chance to answer. The same blank stare she had when her vision's arrived came across her face.

"Actually I don't think any of us are going anywhere." Alice smiled.

"What's going on? Is Bella alright?" Edward raised his voice slightly.

"Edward she's fine although I can't see her properly, she is really blurry right now. In about two hours she is going to call us to ask us if we can meet with her mentor Methos."

Edward rapidly grabbed his phone and dialled the number he had seen in Alice's vision. He figured it must be Bella's. After three numbing rings Bella picked up her phone.

"Hello?" the confused voice asked.

"Bella its Edward, Alice had a vision that you wanted us to meet Methos. The family would love to meet him."

"I should have known Alice would still be able to see me."

"Don't be so sure. She's asking me if you could try being more careful. You're blurry in her vision now and she wants to keep an eye in you. Of course within reason" Edward quickly added.

"Let me think. I have classes tomorrow but would eleven tomorrow night be acceptable. Any sign of daylight should be long gone."

"Where should we meet?"

"I'm sure Alice has already seen the destination" laughed Bella.

Edward looked at Alice who gave a swift nod.

"We'll see you tomorrow night then. Bye Bella, try to stay out of trouble."

"No worries" Bella replied and then the line went dead.

Edward had already decided he was going to follow Bella throughout the day. He knew he had to be careful to avoid being detected by her but he was sure he could do it; the forecast for the weather was cloudy with a chance of sun so any public appearance would be out of the question.

"We're still hunting Edward. Still want to come and watch me hunt better than you." Alice teased.

"You're the one who will be watching."

The two 'siblings' jolted at vampire speed out of the house laughing with Emmett joining them after only a few seconds.

Eleven the next night

Alice looked at the park that Bella had chosen and wondered why she had chosen it, then again anything Bella did surprised Alice even if Alice had her ability set to full power. The entire park was deserted apart from an annoying man sitting on a bench staring at them. People staring at them was nothing new but this man looked at them as if he was studying every fibre of who they were. Alice had trouble knowing if he knew what they were.

The engine of a bike being pushed to its limits was the noise that interrupted Alice's thoughts. Bella had arrived late and looked like she had rushed to get there as soon as possible.

"I'm sorry I'm late, the traffic was nightmare" she sighed as she placed her helmet of her bike.

"There was no rush Bella" Carlisle assured her.

Bella beckoned the strange man with dark hair and slightly pale skin to come over to them. The man was much older but everyone in the Cullen family recognised who this man was. Methos had been the strange man sitting on the bench and Alice felt stupid for not putting the pieces together.

"I must say Bella I never expected the meeting to be so soon. Hello everyone it's a pleasure to meet you all. I'm Methos."

Carlisle was the first to step forward and introduce himself to Methos.

"Greetings, my name is Carlisle and this is my family" nodding in the direction of each person "this is my wife Esme, my son's Jasper, Edward and Emmett and my daughter's Rosalie and Alice."

Before anything more could be said a figure emerged from the shadows. Duncan had arrived with a look of murder on his face.

Please review.
