Lol Ocake, I know it's not my school you wanna hear about lol you want the chappy that I so cruelly took my time with but I was a little hesitant you see. I wrote a lot of versions to this chappy and I didn't know which one was best. Alas! I chose one. Hopefully I chose the right one, You'll tell me, right??!! Enough rambling let's get to business. Enjoy! :D

Recap:

"I don't have time to talk. They're on their way Rose. Take care." And the caller hung up.

I didn't need her translation. I wrapped my arms around her again and tucked her head under my chin. It was about time I took revenge for controlling my Rose. The Volturi will regret it.

Control

(This chappy is too serious for poems lol.)

DPOV

The silence was deafening. Nothing was heard except for the whooshing of the wind and the heartbeats and breaths of Bella. She was in her wheel chair beside Edward and on her other side were all the Cullens. I was on Edward's right and Rosalinda's hand was in my right one. We were one line. One strength. One family.

If you were an outsider you'd think that a world war III was going to start. But if you knew what we knew you'd sit and relax because it's a fight that could be easily won.

A few feet away from us stood a huge crowd. The Volturi's wives and witnesses. All dressed in black and a few sparkles because of the sun. They were no less than twenty five without the leaders. Aro, Marcus, and Caius were the first three. Right by their side stood Alec and Jane. The looks on their faces could be mistaken for anger, but they knew. They knew how strong we were. They knew that no matter how outnumbered we were, we could still win. That look on their faces was fear.

I had to hold back my snarl as I met Jane's blood-red eyes, remembering all the pain she used to put me through when I was kidnapped. She used me as her practice doll. Whenever she wanted to practice she'd barge into my cell and start torturing me until Rosalinda would come in and make up any excuse for her to stop. Sometimes it was that and sometimes it was just utter boredom. She wanted to have fun, why not watch the dummy twitch in pain?

A snarl escaped my lips as I glared at her. She smirked and gave me a quick wink, as if promising me of what will soon to come. If only she knew.

I felt Edward's hand on my arm. Control yourself he whispered in my head. They're the ones in danger now. That thought satisfied me. I could not wait to wipe that smirk off Jane's face.

"Friends!" Aro cheered with wide smile on his face.

Oh boy! Edward thought and I saw him roll his eyes. I almost laughed. I've been a bad influence on Edward, his language was starting to get more modern by the minute.

Yes, I blame you for that. He thought.

Hey! Blame your fiancé. She was the one who changed mine in the first place.

Let's get something straight. I would never blame Bella for anything, even if she is to be blamed. So you'd better get used to it. You'll always be the wrong one when it comes to her.

We'll see Eddie-weddi. I smirked because I knew he'd flip.

Don't call me that!

"We come in peace." Aro's voice cut through our brief conversation.

Sure you do both of us thought.

"We've come to witness the miracle of two brothers being reunited after a century of being apart." Anyone would have thought his voice was full of sincerity but to us it was plain fake.

"We wouldn't have needed to reunite if it wasn't for you separating us," I found myself saying out loud in irritation. I couldn't help it. I was too impatient of pretence. I wanted to get it over with now.

His red eyes shifted to me in what looked like hurt. "Young one, did you think that that was our intention? Separating two brothers? That's so cruel."

"Oh, then please. Enlighten us," Edward said crossing his arms.

Careful Edward,. Carlisle thought to Edward.

But Edward shook his head slowly as he glared at Aro and hissed, "no more pretenses."

I almost smirked when I saw Jane, Marcus, and Caius's eyes narrow at Edward. Aro stayed in his friendly façade. His smile only grew wider.

"What pretense, my dear friend? We only took Damien to insure he become a vampire so he could benefit of his power. Isn't that right dearest Rosalinda?" His eyes shifted to her in the most kind way. But I saw Jane smirk and fix her eyes on her.

It all happened too fast, but still as if in slow motion. Rosalinda shied to my side, holding my arm firmly, bracing herself. Edward and I intertwined our hands together quickly and closed our eyes.

Jane we both thought together. You will not harm Rosalinda!

I felt a surge of power ring through me, vibrating in my veins until it reached the point where Edward and I were connected. Our hands. We both stiffened as that surge started departing our bodies. I opened my eyes and so did Edward. We fixed our eyes on Jane, ordering the unseen power to wrap around her. I felt and saw it when it hit her. Her face went blank, her smirk gone and an automatic voice she said,

"I will not harm Rosalinda." Her eyes were wide as she stared off into space.

I smiled widely and put my arm around Linda. Pulling her tightly to my side, I kissed the top of her head and whispered, "No one will ever harm you again, lovely love, now that you're back with me," I vowed.

"I love you," she sighed in relief and that's when I realized.

"They did that to you before, didn't they?" I said through gritted teeth.

She nodded slowly, "when they suspected that I came to you."

I fisted my hands and started debating on giving them a taste of their own medicine. But Edward caught my arm.

Calm down.

I took a deep breath and that was when I noticed, everyone was still staring at Jane in shock.

Didn't they figure it out yet?

I saw the ends of Edward's mouth turn upwards. Bella did.

And she gasped. "Mind control!"

Always the smart one. I commented.

Edward rolled his eyes but grinned.

I looked back at the three leaders whose stance had all but changed. Shock and hesitation was written all over their faces. Alec moved his hand in front of Jane's motionless eyes and called her name softly. But she did not answer.

Edward, I'm dying to give Jane a taste of her own medicine.

Patience brother. We'll have that kind of fun if they decide to do it the hard way.

I prayed that they would go the hard way. I wanted to avenge Rose.

"Is it, Edward? Mind control, I mean," Carlisle whispered in awe.

"It is," Edward confirmed, keeping his eyes on Aro's face.

I cleared my throat. "You were saying?" I glared at Aro.

He blinked and glanced at both Caius and Marcus. None of them helped. He coughed a little, "Well it seems that you are more powerful than we expected…" he trailed off.

"So it seems." Both Edward and I said.

His eyes wandered along our strong line and they stopped at someone. He frowned and looked at Edward. "You have a human witness all this? That's against…"

"She is to be my wife soon. For eternity." He emphasized the last word meaningfully.

Don't say, did my words actually get to you?

Yes Damien. I learned to listen to her and understand what she wants. And you were right, she knows what she wants. Thank you. You don't understand what kind of a difference it made. There was something behind his words.

Difference?

He smiled. It's a surprise for later.

"Oh. So she knows everything," he said, his frown deepening. He looked at her, "Are you sure you want to be one of us? You know, if you seek power you could always join our clan and stay human," he offered with a sickeningly sweet smile.

He wanted her to protect himself. As long as they had one of us we would never harm them.

Edward growled and I hissed but Bella smiled back at him and said, "Thank you but I don't like your style."

"I think that you have nothing more to do here. If you have any hopes of a fight you should know that you don't stand a chance," Edward snarled, glaring at the three of them.

Caius laughed and stepped forward, "don't you see? You are outnumbered. You can't control all our minds at once. We're too many for you to control." His grin was small but dangerous.

"It's such a shame that you don't have a Jasper Cullen of your own to show you strategy." I snorted "You're right, we can't control you all at once, but we can always do this."

Edward and I intertwined our hands again and felt the surge of power vibrate through us again.

Alec, kill the senses of the guards and witnesses. Leave the leaders only!

As we felt the powerful vibe leave our bodies we opened our eyes and directed the unseen force towards Alec by only looking at him. His eyes went wide and we saw the misty black cloud leave his hands and wrap around the crowd behind the three vampires.

"Leave leaders only," he said robotically. When the black mist fell into place, every vampire in the large crowd gasped and fell to the ground silently and motionlessly.

The three of them kept looking around them in shock. They were the only three left standing with their minds in their control.

"Thank you for the advice Jazz!" Edward said with a smirk.

"Yeah! Thanks, General 'J'!" I said.

I heard him laugh at the nickname. "Anytime."

"Aw Come on guys. Don't be that way." Emmett whined, "There won't be any action that way. They'll run away screaming. I wanna fight."

Caius glared at Emmet but said nothing.

"Who's outnumbered again?" I asked Caius politely. The three of them just glared at me.

"So here it is. Either you become the good and loyal leaders that you should be or we could just modify what we want and make you be what we want." Edward set the terms firmly.

Aro grit his teeth and glared at Rosalinda. I knew what was wrong. To them, she was a traitor. I quickly squeezed Edward's hand willing the surge of power to flow again but this time it was stronger with my anger.

Jane, torture Aro.

"Torture Aro," she repeated and Aro was on the ground twitching and screaming in pain. His pain satisfied my anger and thirst for revenge. I made it last for a few minutes till I ordered her to stop. When Aro opened his eyes and pushed himself up with his hands, I growled.

"Don't you DARE look at my wife that way again!" If it wasn't for Rosalinda and Edward's grip on me I would have gone and showed him the consequences he brought to himself. "DO YOU UNDERSTAND ARO?!" My growl ripped through my chest and I felt Rose hold me tighter.

He nodded quickly with wide eyes as Marcus helped him to stand up.

"NOW GO BEFORE I DECIDE TO RIP YOU INTO PIECES!" I wasn't far from that decision. And I prayed for him to try me. But his eyes were wide with fear and once he was on his feet he fled. Disappeared.

"Damien, calm down. I'm all right," Rosalinda whispered, stroking my hair softly. Of course that gesture instantly relaxed me. I took her in both my arms this time. She patted my heart and murmured, "I'm safe with you." I buried my fingers in her hair and tucked her head under my chin.

"Always." I vowed.

Caius and Marcus stared off behind Aro. I saw Marcus gulp and look back at us. "What if I decide to just leave royalty?"

We both nodded to him. He took the approval gladly and went behind Aro. Caius was the one who stayed. "Cowards!" he shouted behind them.

Alec, kill senses. And Caius fell on the ground.

"Oh man. You had to kill the fun," Emmett whined, walking away. Jasper and Carlisle came to stand in front of us.

"Any ideas what to do with them?" Edward asked pointing with his chin at the fallen vampires as he crossed his legs on the snow and pulled Bella off of the wheel chair and set her on his lap.

Both Jasper and Carlisle were silent for a while as they thought about it.

"Hey, where are Esme, Alice, and Rosalie?" Bella asked as she leaned her head on Edward's shoulder.

Edward's smile was bigger than… than… than his face. "They have a wedding to prepare for. Don't you want a wedding to remember for eternity?"

Edward's smile was contagious it made us all smile but not as big as his or Bella's. "But shouldn't I have to find a husband first?" she teased.

Edward laughed and I laughed. Rosalinda lifted her head from my chest and smiled at Bella. "We women should stand up for each other. You could borrow mine for the wedding. He'll do," she said casually.

"Uh-Oh. I didn't think about this. Women plotting against us men," I said faking anxiousness.

"Of course! Why do you think we go to the bathroom in groups? That's the one place where we plot and you can't come near," Bella said proudly.

"Aha!" Edward cheered, "So there will come the time when the world of pink take over the world of black. I will fight till my last breath."

"As in you need breathing?" Rosalinda lifted an eyebrow.

"I'm improvising. We men don't have a plan yet," he whispered in fake urgency.

We laughed.

After a few minutes of light laughing and going on about the same subject, Edward and I decided to make our own plan for dominance. It was silly but nice after the long tension. When we were done and wanted to go back to the hotel we asked again about what we should do with the others.

Jasper smirked and said, "I have a few ideas."
