Chapter 20:

When I woke I knew I was much to comfortable to be in our meadow, I opened my eyes slowly taking in the familiar surroundings of Edwards room. My arm stretched out and I could feel him sitting beside me. "Morning hon." I said taking in his motion less face. He was holding a note in his hands, again I could recognize Jake's messy print. I leaned over Edward's shoulder to see what was wrong.

Edward and Bella,

Congrats on the big day. I was able to hold off the Volturi for a few days, but unfortunately they are still coming to check on Bella. I'd be prepared, they seem to hold a grudge. I am visiting the pack in a few days, and the entire guard as well as Aro, Marcus and Caius will be there the day after.

-Jake

"There's no time, we need to change you now."

I took a deep breath, "I'm ready." I said as Carlisle appeared at the door. He immediately injected morphine into my arm as I stared into Edwards's blank gaze. In a matter of minutes my vision started to blur and my eyelids began to droop.

Edward's cool lips pressed against my jaw, smoothly gliding to my ear. "Thank you, for so much more then I could have ever given you. I love you." I might have disagreed with the first part but abruptly fire filled my veins.

It wasn't like the last time with James. This fire was spreading faster, the blaze impossibly large to fit in my small body, I gasped in pain. I wanted to find Edward to tell him to make it stop but my eyes wouldn't open, my mouth couldn't form words. I shrieked endlessly, but could hardly hear my own voice. Tears welled in my eyes at the pain, but did nothing to the fire.

Distantly I could feel cool fingers brushing my face, but they did not comfort me. Nothing was comforting in this unbearable pain. I screamed until my voice grew hoarse and I could no longer make a sound.

Time seemed frozen, and although I was silent the fire raged on. I was not spared the relief of unconciousness, though I doubt that anyone could sleep through this incessant burning. My throat throbbed, but I could not move. I felt as if I was in a coma, frozen in the state of pain. Surely this would end, what else could be left to burn? I wondered if Edward was able to hear my thoughts. Kill me now, I begged him, pleading with my thoughts.

Nothing happened, at some point I grew to recognize the pain. I knew what to expect and knew that it wasn't getting worse. At last I felt as though I could move, my hand clenched quickly into a fist. Instantly hands were on my face again. "Bella, Bella." A voice said. I knew that voice in mind I could place a blurry memory of a face with that sound. Edward.

I felt a sense of recognition as I opened my eyes taking in faces. Alice and Jasper, Esme, Rosalie, Emmett and Carlisle and at last inches from my face was Edward. Still these names meant little to me, except for Edward. His voice had triggered a strong emotion within me. I remembered that I loved him.

"Ed-,"I began, stopping when I did not recognize my own voice, a light stream of bells ringing in harmony, "Edward?" I asked again prepared this time.

"Oh Bella!" he sighed relieved, "I was so worried its been four days!" I sighed glancing around the room the colors were vivid, and slowly my mind connected more and more of my fuzzy memories as I took in my surroundings.

A second later my eyes paused on a large figure resting in the corner. "Jacob?" I asked, briefly turning to Edward.

"He came to see you, he wants to say goodbye."

"Ah," I sighed as Emmett kicked him in the ribs. The figure jolted awake with a grunt.

"Bella!" he cheered with a grin. "I thought the leech killed you!"

I frowned, I was a leech now too. It was a few minutes of happy greeting until things got serious. Although much of my memory had been restored by now. Human memories replaced in my new ifallible mind.

We had all moved from Edwards room to the dining room table. I sat holding Edwards looking at the serious faces before me, something was wrong. Jacob began to speak.

"As you know I have accepted Aro's invitation into the guard. Now without their knowledge I am warning you. They are preparing very seriously for a fight. Also I spoke to the pack of my actions. This was not intentional I swear, but seeing as I am fighting with the Volturi, they have chosen to as well…" his voice slowly died out realizing what he had caused by telling the pack. Grief was plain across his features.

"You can go now," Carlisle murmured with no emotion.

Jacob sighed. "Goodbye Bella, Edward. Everyone." No one spoke everyone was frightened into silence as Jacob took his exit. At last Emmett broke it.

"Looks like we're going to have to take down the pack and guard. Not too bad for one days work." He grinned No one commented, all eyes locked with Alice's blank stare.

"Tanya," she whispered, "It's the only way, we need the Denali's."

Carlisle was the first to act, pulling out a small cell phone. "Tanya," he said, "Is Irina there?" I turned to face Edward, hoping for a clue to what was going on he stared back towards Carlisle concentration on his face. Then Carlisle spoke again, skipping over any greeting, "I'm giving you a chance to take down the pack." He said harshly.

I gasped though, I could still hear her agreement. The phone snapped shut. I turned my face into Edwards chest. There was no way to avoid it now. I'd made my decision, back in that other lifetime, and he made his. There was no way but this, we were enemies now. The Denali's were coming to take down the pack, and I would be fighting with them.
