Chapter 11: Enough for Now


Bella P.O.V

I pushed past the other guards and barged into the hall, Marcus, Luke and Alice behind me.

"Aro?!" I shouted, "What have you done with my daughter, if you've hurt her--" I hissed, Aro walked towards me.

"Bella, Marcus, how nice of you to come back," He began, "Your daughter is perfectly safe."

"And where's Edward?" Alice snarled from behind me.

I saw Sam lift her head, her eyes red raw and black from her runny mascara, why was she crying? "Sam?" I whispered.

"He's dead, they killed him." She sobbed, "Those fucking murderers killed my father!" She cried. Edward's dead?

"What?" Luke hissed angrily.

"He's dead Luke, gone for good." She cried, I tried to get to her but Demetri hissed at me, indicating for me to stay away.

"Aro, you promised you--"

"I promised I would never harm your children, and I kept that promise." He said,

"But..." I looked at Sam, who was looking at me now, her eyes filling up again.

Suddenly, I heard Luke snarl, "Luke, what--" He hissed and went for Aro, but he got nowhere near him, he was pulled back by Alec and Jane. But Luke cried out, it was a cry of agony. Something else didn't feel right.

"Luke?" Jane looked at Aro, and Alec backed away. "Jane, what the fuck have you done to him?" I shouted.

"She bit him." Alec whispered.

"No... NO! Not my little boy, NO! He isn't ready!" I screamed, running to Luke's side. "Luke." I whispered.

"What's happening?" I heard Sam ask, Alice was knelt next to Sam, wiping her eyes.

"Jane bit him." She told Sam.

"Bit him. Will he die?" She asked, I heard the fear in the words.

"No, but..." She sighed, "He'll be a vampire."

*~*~*~*~*

Samantha P.O.V

I watched Luke thriving in pain on the floor in my Mom's arms, I really didn't know why I was watching. They couldn't do anything about it, they couldn't even suck the venom out, apparently it was too late.

But really, I couldn't get the image of my father being killed out of my mind. It was horrible. Right in front of me, to save me.

"Alice," I whispered

"Yes?"

I sighed, "I-- I'm really sorry about Dad, well, your brother." She put her arm around me. "It's just that, he died for me, and I feel... guilty."

She sighed, too. "I'm sure you would of done the same for him." She whispered, I nodded.

I turned my head to see Luke and Mom. I stood up and went over to them, and put my arm on Mom's shoulder. I wanted this to end now, I was hoping I'd wake up soon, and it would be that first day of school again, and I never read Dad's mind.

"Mom..." I whispered, "We can't sit here and wait, I know that a vampire changes can take days." She sighed.

"Take him home, maybe?" I shook my head.

"We should stay here, but we should move him." I said, she nodded, and we both looked at Luke.

Mom stood up, "Aro, can we move Luke into Marcus and I's quarters?" Aro stood down from the stage-like platform, and glanced down at Luke.

"Yes, of course."

Mom smiled, and lifted him up. I followed Mom to a space at the back. It was beautiful, completely different to the main hall. It was bright, decorated very modernly, almost like the Cullen's house.

Mom laid Luke onto a white couch, and put a pillow under his head.

"What should I do?" I asked quietly.

She came and put her arm around me, it still made me shiver, "You could go back to Forks with Alice, or stay here?" I glanced at Alice, who was stood at the door.

"I'll stay here, I want to be here when he wake up." I said.

"What are you going to do, Alice?" Mom asked.

"I need to go back, tell everyone about Edward." She sighed.

"Okay," Mom said.

"Bella, you will be back for the funeral, right?"

"Of course."

"Thanks." Alice turned and disappeared.

I walked and sat on the edge of the couch that Luke was on, and so did Mom.

"What's it like, the change?" I asked.

"Painful." Was all she said.

"Why isn't he... screaming, then?"

"Screaming doesn't really help, you realize that." She explained, I nodded.

*~*~*~*~*

Alice P.O.V (Back in Fork)

I approached the house, with how I was going to tell them imprinted on my brain. It was horrible, they were probably expecting two people to walk through the doors.

I went in and upstairs, I saw Jasper immediately.

"Love." He whispered, hugging me tightly, then kissing me.

"Wait." I said, pushing him away.

"What?"

"I need to tell you all something," I began a everyone sat down. "Some... bad news."

"What is it, Alice?" Carlisle asked.

I sighed, "As you may see, I walked through the door alone. No Edward. Well, there's a reason for that..." I looked down, and saw their looks of confusion. "The Volturi they... they..."

"They what, Alice?" Emmett demanded.

"They killed him." Everyone gasped at the same time,

"Edward's... dead?" Esme asked. I nodded, it ached to do that nod.

I knew that if she could, Esme would be in flood of tears, just like me and probably everyone else.


SOB! I know, your all thinking, 'WTF, Alice arrived home pretty quick?!' It was a time skip, by about a day or so.
