Marcus POV

Katrina let out a growl as she pulled Bella away from Alexander. "What exactly do you have against new borns?" she hissed.

"Not just any new borns." Alexander answered, glaring at Bella. "But the immortal children."

I scooped Bella up in my arms protectively. Alexander tore his gaze from her to me.

"And to think a member of the great Volturi is the one who created the little monster." He said.

"Bella is not a monster!" I hissed. "She's good. She never hurt anyone other then to feed like you and I do. There is nothing wrong with her. Don't come near her." I turned away from Alexander, guiding Katrina into the other direction and stopped.

The first thing I saw was the old man from before glaring at us. He suddenly morphed into a young vampire, maybe was turned in his mid-twenties. Then I noticed behind him that there were about eighteen vampires staring down at Bella.

"Let's us by!" I ordered them but they did not move. Instead six of them grabbed Bella and tore her from my arms. I reached out for her but six others held me back against the opposite side of the room. I turned to Katrina too find out why she wasn't helping Bella, only to see that she had six vampires of her own to fight off.

Alexander stepped in front of me. "Why would you do this Marcus? You know how dangerous it is for immortal children to live in this world and yet you created this one." He said, gesturing to Bella. "Haven't you and your brothers made it a priority to destroy the immortal children? To protect the world from them? To protect our world from them? So I just have to ask, why?"

"She saved me and almost died for it! I had to save her! I had to let her live for what she did for me!" I yelled at him, trying to break free of the vampires who held me. "You want to know why I did this?! It's because I love that child! She's my daughter!"

Alexander stared at me as if everything I was say was the stupidest thing he's ever heard. He looked over at Bella then back to me.

"That… thing is obviously clouding your judgment. I'll do you a service and get rid of the problem." Alexander said, motioning to the vampires that held Bella. They gripped Bella's arms and legs and dragged her to the door of the Fire Chamber.

"No! Let her go!" I roared trying to push the vampires off of me. They slammed me into the wall, tightening their grip.

"No!" Katrina bellowed pulling away from the vampires that had her with her new born strength. She ran over to Bella and tried to pull her way from them, only to be grabbed by the vampires who had her and the one who had Bella.

"What do we do about this new born?" one of the vampires asked.

"Put her in there with the immortal child." Alexander ordered.

The vampires tossed Katrina into the Fire Chamber and threw Bella at her. I could see Katrina and Bella through the window. Katrina caught her as the vampires closed the door to the chamber. She put Bella down and tried to open the door only to find that it wouldn't budge, even with her new born strength.

Alexander waved for the vampires who held me to bring me closer to the window. He placed his hand on the lever.

"Now watch," Alexander said. "As we erase the creatures that clouded your judgment."

Katrina grabbed Bella, making her roll up into a ball, and covered Bella with her body.

Alexander pulled the lever down and the flames enveloped the whole chamber.

No!" I growled as I heard Katrina's and Bella's horror filled screams.
