Moving On

Chapter 38

"So who's coming?" asked Harry from Emmett's monster truck. The rest of his friends were in the back or in Carlisle's car. They didn't want to take all the vehicles. Edward's Volvo was not there yet, Alice, Jasper and Esme were in that one. Carlisle's town car was behind them with Harry's friends, Fred and George looked like they were driving the man mad.

"Edward is going to get Bella and that's it" said Emmett he had a pinched look around his face.

"What's wrong?" asked Harry curiously.

"Well Edward heard what you said about Bella…how she wanted to be a vampire" admitted Emmett.

"Oh crap, didn't we put up a silencing charm?" asked Harry to his best friend Hermione.

"I thought we had" said Hermione looking shocked.

"Obviously you hadn't" said Ron.

"I'm so sorry" gasped Harry looking rather upset.

"He needed to hear it" said Emmett.

"So why is she coming?" asked Ron looking confounded.

"Ron" whispered Hermione obviously shocked with Ron's tact.

"Sorry" said Ron who would have been bright red in embarrassment if he could still do it. Some things had changed but Ron speaking without thinking wasn't one of them.

"Its fine we are all thinking the exact same thing…but we avoid thinking it around him" sighed Emmett.

"Yeah that's understandable…did you like her?" asked Harry softly.

"She was funny for a human…always falling over her own feet. Rosalie couldn't stand her… it seems she was correct in regards to Bella" said Emmett.

"I'm sure Rosalie was only concerned about the safety of her family" said Hermione softly.

"That as well" nodded Emmett.

"I suppose Edward can't just stop his feelings for her" sighed Hermione softly.

"No I don't suppose he can" said Emmett.

"Still…if he's going to turn her she might not stay with him…she just wants to be like you who knows what she will do afterwards" said Harry.

"That is all up to Edward now…he is old enough to make his own decisions" said Emmett.

"That he is" said Ron.

"We are nearly there" said Emmett changing the subject.

The huge coven of Vampires gathered on the field to play ball together, Carlisle and Harry were picked as captain's. Emmett was picked as Harry's first; Carlisle chose Edward and the list continued on.

Harry had - Emmett, Rosalie, Ron, Hermione, Luna and Neville.

Carlisle had - Edward, Jasper, Alice, Fred and George.

Esme was playing umpire. Bella was just watching as usual.

So the game began, Carlisle's team was first to bad, as they had the less players, one of them played twice to make it even in the end. They played for what felt like the entire night, having fun being able to run properly.

"Edward's team has to win right?" asked Bella.

"Not really…Harry does seem really fast…perhaps even faster than Edward" said Esme beaming proudly like a parent.

"I see" said Bella going quiet at that point. She didn't like how even Esme liked those teenage vampires. Edward had been quiet and different with her since they came. She was sure she was loosing him…she couldn't until she was a vampire she would be damned if she lost him to a man. If it came to it she would go to the Volturi and get them to turn her if she had to - but only as a last resort as she wasn't sure if they would turn her. However, she knew they were intrigued by her gift so perhaps they would after all. If only she knew that one of them could hear her thoughts she would never have thought about that right there and then.

Suddenly everything went quiet, Alice and Luna both went very still, Harry and Jasper ran towards them steadying them as they both saw what the girls were seeing.

"Get Bella out of here" snapped Harry.

"It's too late they are already coming" whispered Alice.

Harry and Hermione looked at each other and seemed to come to the same conclusion. Hermione ran towards the girl and apparated away, leaving the Cullen's shocked they knew about magic but they hadn't known they could disappear from somewhere.

"Where is she?" asked Edward looking worried.

"Back at your house don't worry Hermione will stay with her" said Harry.

"Get ready" snapped Harry already on defensive stance.

"What's coming?" asked Ron getting in line behind Harry; the others were flanking his sides as if it was natural to them. Which it was, there was no denying Harry was the leader of the Potter Coven.

The Olympic Coven quickly did the same with Carlisle getting in line behind him.

"New born's being led by Victoria" said Harry.

"Esme go home now look after Bella" said Carlisle, knowing full well Esme wasn't a fighter.

"Ron take her home and bring Hermione back ward the house…we need her" said Harry there was no denying it Hermione was amazing the best witch/vampires of her age.

Ron didn't even need to be told twice, he apparated with Esme and found Hermione had already warded the place. Quickly grabbing Hermione he found himself with her in the field watching the new born's advancing rapidly.

"Don't let them grab you or you don't have a chance they cannot think logically" lectured Jasper.

"They won't get that near" snarled Hermione angrily.

And another battle began this time to protect the inhabitants of Forks.

Just as Hermione said they never got that far, Hermione and Ron worked together raising the Vampires up and setting fire to them, Luna and Neville worked a spell into cutting them into pieces so there was no way they could come back.

The rest of the people were working in groups bringing them down being sure to stay out of the line of fire. Not that it mattered as Ron as rising them above the ground and Hermione was setting fire to them far away from them. Victoria was watching it with a shocked look on her face.

Harry and Edward were trying to make their way up to her, she had already had a warning from Harry - he wasn't going to allow her to live after what she had just done. Perhaps if she had known what she was dealing with perhaps everything would have been different.

Before they could each her she was gone, they couldn't do anything about it as they were still surrounded by Vampires. Suddenly a phone rang in the clearing, Carlisle's phone. Upon answering it they all heard what she was saying.

"Victoria's here with three newborns" was all she needed to say.

"Edward Carlisle with me!" yelled Harry; as soon as they touched him he had them inside the Cullen's household.

Victoria had Bella by the neck.
