Again I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while it's just I've started some more stories so I was writing them up and didn't get a chance to write up this chapter, which I've had for a while.
It was very soon after that vision that Esca worked out a plan of action.
Their army of 55 stood in the huge field waiting for Caius's newborn army to show up.
While Esca talked them through the plan.
"Right we are going to fight in small groups, once I've put you into groups you aren't to part until the fight is over. Ok?" Nobody spoke but they all seemed ok with it by their thoughts.
"Most of you are going to be I threes, it's only Seth, who is going to be with me." Seth was far from pleased about this but he didn't say anything. "And Aro and Carlisle."
Leah wasn't at all happy about this and the rest of the wolves didn't like the idea either, but Esca didn't have much choice because Carlisle and Aro had one of the strongest bonds.
She had wanted to put Seth with them as Seth and Aro got on so well, but she needed someone to fight along with her.
"If your in a two it's because I think you can handle it." Esca carried on. After all it was going to be a lot harder with one vampire less.
"Ok there will be two groups of four they're: Bella, Benjamin, Zafrina and Renesmee. Because Renesmee isn't going to do much in the way of fighting and I want Benjamin and Zafrina to always be in Bella's shield. Understood?" Esca asked and was glad to see all of them nodding.
"The other group of four is: Siobhan, Santiago, Alistair and Kebi." Esca looked at them in turn, they all seemed quite happy with the group.
"The other groups are: Esme and Leah your Sulpicia. Edward and Emmett your with Jasper. Brady, you and Paul are with Sam. Quil, Embry your with Jacob. Tanya, Kate your with Garrett. Kachiri, Senna your with Felix. I hope you don't mind. Eleazar your with Jane and Chelsea. Again I apologise. Collin, you and Jared are with Carmen. Amun your with Charlotte and Maggie. Alice and Rosalie your with Tia. Liam, Peter your with Demetri. And Sam you need to sort the rest of the wolves out."
The wolves went into the trees to change into their wolf forms.
When they got back the vampires were already in their groups. As the wolves joined their groups it was decided that Esca had made a good choice.
Esca, Aro and Carlisle stood close as Seth joined Esca, they looked, more like one group instead of two.
Seth looked down at Esca, she nodded and lightly her and Aro's hands touched.
You will look after him, won't you? Was Seth's message.
Aro nodded, "of course I will."
It was only loud enough for the four of them to hear but Leah visibly relaxed.
She was standing next to Esme, Sulpicia on the other side so that Esme was in the middle. Sulpicia had her arm protectively around Esme's waist.
Jasper walked over to Esca, he looked worried.
"Do you think this is going to work?" He asked quietly, everyone stopped talking to listen.
"Are you doubting me?" Esca asked with a small grin on her face.
Jasper grinned back, Esca hadn't been with them long, but already you trusted her with your life…and more. She had a huge effect on everyone.
"Of course not, I was more doubting the numbers and are ability."
Esca sighed. "Trust me Jasper, everything is going to be fine, I promise." Jasper nodded and returned to his brothers. Everyone was looking at him.
He smiled at them reassuringly and sent waves to them. He only wished he could feel that way.
Hey I can hear you. Don't doubt me! Esca's voice echoed around his head.
Jasper spun round to look at her, who tried and failed to look innocent, but the grin was not about to be suppressed at the look on his face and the theme to his thoughts.
Leah was worried she wanted Carlisle to be safe and not to fight and wished Esca had forced him to step out of the fight. Leah had never left more worried in her life than right now, what if Carlisle was killed!
It'll be ok Leah. Seth told her.
Leah did her best to calm down, which wasn't at all easy.
Esca's face suddenly went blank and everyone looked at her.
"They'll be here in exactly 2 minutes and 47.2 seconds." She told them and turned to face the far side of the field, waiting for them to arrive.
