I would have had this chapter out sooner but I've been busy. I was on the today show! Well...sort of. I went and rocked out to no doubt! So here is the next chapter! Stephanie Meyers owns twilight because she was to smart to think of it before anyone else.

EPOV

When we arrived in Volterra, all I wanted to do was break open the car door and find my Bella. But I couldn't do that, seeing as that would probably just get us both killed. The sun was shining brightly, so we had to drive to a secret entrance into a dark tunnel in order not to attract the attention of our skin with the Volterra tourist.

"Do you see anything at all Alice?" I asked. She shook her head.

"I told you, it's harder to see the future when Bella is involved", I bawled both my hands into fists and tried not to break the car window.

"Calm down Edward", Jasper spoke to me in his mind. He must have sensed my uneasiness because I felt a rush of calmness wash over me. Waiting for us outside was Felix.

"Hello Cullen family", he greeted us.

"Felix, nice to see you", I shook his hand. He was blocking his mind from me for some odd reason. Felix greeted the rest of the family and less us inside.

"Everyone's excited about your arrival", Felix told us. I heard Rosalie snort.

"Gee I wonder why!" We were lead into the great hall where we found Carlisle waiting for us.

"Carlisle!" I heard Esme scream and run over to him to hug him. Carlisle opened his arms wide and gripped them around her tightly. To bad I wouldn't be getting a greeting like that from Bella. As we all got settled, the rest of the Volturi guard gathered inside. Aro was last to enter.

"Cullen Family! I'm so happy to see you all!" We all walked over towards him to greet him. He shook everyone's hand and saved me for last.

"Edward it is so nice to see you!" I put on the best fake smile I could.

"It's very nice to see you to."

"Now I can assure you that your Bella is safe for now. We have some things we need to clear up now do we?"

"Yes we do", I heard Alice perk up. Aro nodded.

"Where is Sarah?" Rosalie asked, angrily. Her thoughts were non too pleasant right now.

"Sarah is out at the moment but I can assure you she will be back later. Now, I will start reading Edward's mind and then end with Esme", we all agreed and I stretched my hand out so Aro could flip through my mind. After a few minutes he let go of my hand and moved onto Jasper standing next to me.

"Edward"

I heard Felix's mind yell at me. I looked over at him. "Edward I blocked my mind from you for a reason. I didn't want Aro to know what I'm about to tell you." I nodded my head for him to continue. "First, Bella is safe. She is locked in a cellar near the basement and Sarah is with her." I widened my eyes in shock. "I know, I know. There is a lot to explain and that can be done later. Bella, Sarah, and I have a plan to make sure they all get out of this alive." I nodded my head frantically for him to keep going. Aro now moved on from Jasper, and was reading Rosalie's mind. "This is all a set up to get you to join the guard. Aro lied about what he saw in Sarah's head so he could get you out here. He is going to make you choose over Bella or joining us." My jaw dropped open in complete shock. How dare him! I looked over to Aro to make sure he wasn't paying attention to me, which he wasn't. He was now reading Alice's mind. I then looked over to Carlisle, who looked at me questionably. I looked back over at Felix and he continued. "I understand you have a video tape of the fight that took place. It is great evidence and will truly show Aro has been lying this entire time. But once you give him that tape, he is going to destroy it. I've been going over in my head over and over on how I could get the tape first but I just don't know how. So I have another plan. Who has the tape with them? I see Alice has a huge tote bag with her, is she the one?" I nodded my head. "Ok, I have a plan to get her alone."

"Edward", Alice's mind was now interupting me. I turned to look at her to now see Aro had move from her mind over to Emmett's. "I saw what Felix has planed. Take your phone out and call me." I looked at her questionably. Her eyes widened. "Do it now or we won't have a chance to do it at all!" I looked over to Aro, who was still flipping through Emmett's mind. I took out my phone and dialed Alice's number as fast as I could. I wish I could have dialed faster, but I would break the phone. Once I saw it was calling her, I stuck it back in my pants and waited to see where this was going. Alice's phone went off and Aro disconnected his hand from Emmett's and looked at her.

"Alice phones must be turned off when you are in the great hall with us."

"I'm so sorry. I had no idea! I really need to take this."

"I'll go with her", Felix suggested, "I'll go and make sure it is a legit call she is making."

"Good idea Felix, you should go with her", Aro agreed. Felix and Alice scurried out of the great hall and into another room down the hall. I looked back at Aro, now to lost in his own world flipping through Esme's head. I saw the exchange Alice and Felix were making.

"You have the tape?" Felix asked frantically. Alice nodded and reached in her bag and took it out. Felix grabbed the tape and hid it in his robe.

"You think this is going to work?"

"It's the only shot we have. When Aro asks for the tape, play along like you've forgotten or lost it. It will be even more believable because the only other person who knows this plan is Edward. The rest of your family is going to completely freak out. We better get back in there.

As soon as the exchange was finished, Felix and Alice rushed back into the room and took their previous spots. Aro finished reading Esme's mind, he took a few steps back so he was able to look at all of us.

"I am still seeing what I saw in Sarah's mind", I heard nothing but gasps come from my family. I so badly wanted to tell them it would be ok. I wanted to tell them we had a plan, but this had to be believable.

"Well we have the tape", Emmett said, sounding more scared then I've ever heard him.

"Alright well bring it forth then", Aro reached his arm out. Alice reached into her tote bag and frantically searched around. She tore the bag off her arm so it fell to the floor and began searching some more. She was doing a great job of making this believable. She looked up at all of us with a scared look on her face.

"I-I can't find it!" Alice yelled out.

"What do you mean you can't find it Alice!" I yelled at her.

"Edward I thought I had it! I remember getting it and putting it in this bag I swear! I don't know what I did with it!"

"Lemme see Alice", Rosalie grabbed her bag and began searching though it. When she was done, she stood up, looking ready to kill Alice.

"I can't believe you forgot the fucking tape Alice! Of all the things!"

"Language Rosalie", Esme interrupted her. Then I thought it was my turn to turn on the acting skills.

"Alice I can't believe you! It's the reason why were here! How dare you forget it! Bella's going to get herself killed over all of this! I'm going to lose the only love I've ever found and it's all because of you!"

"Your doing a good job Edward, keep it up. I am going to get lunch ready for Bella and Sarah. I will let them know I have the tape. This is going to work", I looked at Felix and nodded. "Aro, I am going to prepare lunch for Bella. If that will be ok with you sir", Aro turned to look at Felix.

"That is fine with me", Felix nodded and took off out of the great hall. Aro then turned to look at us. "Well, I am terribly sorry you can not find the video tape. That would have made great evidence to support your case."

"Alice are you sure you can't find it?" I asked, making my voice sound as shaky as I could. Alice shook her head.

"I'm so sorry Edward."

"So what's going to happen to Bella now?" Emmett asked.

"That is a very good question. I could go and have her killed right now, but I have a better idea", Aro turned to face me, "Edward you love Bella do you not?" I nodded my head. "And you would do anything to protect her, to make sure she is safe, correct?"

"Yes sir. I would do anything."

"Well then. If you join the guard and I, I will let your Bella go and no one will get hurt."

"Bella will be able to be with him still right?" Esme asked. Aro sighed.

"I'm afraid not. You will never be allowed to see Bella again. You will just have the comfort of knowing that she is safe and sound."

"I think we need to discuss this as a family", I heard Carlisle tell Aro.

"Why of course! It is a big decision. I will give you the rest of the day to talk it over, but I would like an answer by tomorrow", I nodded in agreement. I could not believe this was happening.

"I will have an answer by tomorrow."

"Very well then. I will let you all have the rest of the day to yourself. We will go and leave you be", with that Aro and the rest of the guard exited the great hall. We were all silent for a good few minutes. Everyone was lost in his or her own thoughts, worrying about Bella and what my decision was going to be.

"We need to tell them Edward", Alice finally spoke up.

"Tell us what?" Rosalie spat out.

"Calm down Rosalie, everything is fine", I told her.

"How is everything fine! Bella is either going to end up dead or your going to have to leave the family and join the Volturi! How is everything fine Edward!?"

"Rosalie you really do need to calm down. Edward, Felix and I are working out something. You all need to relax."

"Felix?" Carlisle questioned. I nodded.

"And Sarah is locked in the Cell with Bella. I am not sure why though, but that is what Felix told me."

"Please continue Edward", Carlisle pushed.

"Ok, when Aro was done flipping through my mind, Felix began to talk to me. He told me Aro is lying. It is apart of his plan to get me to join the guard. Felix knew about the video tape and no it is not missing. Alice gave it to Felix when she received a 'phone call' and had to leave. Aro would have destroyed the tape if we gave it to him first", everyone was staring at me with their eyes wide open, and their jaws hanging to the floor.

"So all of this was going on while Aro was here, and none of us had any idea?" Emmett asked.

"That is correct. I'm not sure how or when Felix is going to show the video, but I know that it is safe and that Bella will, most likely, be fine." Rosalie smacked Alice's arm.

"I can't believe you guys! I was seriously this close to ripping your head off! You scared the hell out of me!"

"Out of all of us", Jasper interrupted.

"So what do we do now?" Carlisle asked.

"We wait till tomorrow I guess. Felix must have some sort of plan now that he has the tape. We will just have to wait till tomorrow and hope for the best."

"Do you see anything at all Alice?" I asked. She shook her head.

"No, it's still to hazy. It will work though Edward. We just have to hope for the best", I nodded my head. I just hope it will actually work and Bella makes it out of this alive.
