Joshua:" They all have given up, why haven't you waken this isn't how it is you are a fighter." I knelt down at the side of the casket. " I am so sorry my daughter, sorry that this is what I have cost you."

Braden:" Time for cake." Alice smiled and Braden climbed up on the table. Everyone sang Happy Birthday and Braden closed his eyes tight and blew out the candles holding his eyes tight like his wish was the most important thing in the world.

Edward's Pov

" Braden Branden you need to tell me tell me what you wished for." I turned his little face to mine.

" No you see, Papa Josh!" Braden ran to him jumping into his arms. " Papa you promise bring special present."

" I did but little pup you have to be good and quiet not to scare the present okay." Joshua kissed his forehead and sat him down. "Why don't you go and open the other presents with your sister and Daddy and I'll talk to Uncle Edward alright then I'll give you your special present?"

" Okay Papa Josh." Braden jumped down and I walked out with Joshua.

" What is it?" I demanded.

" I've been to Volterra." Joshua looked at me. " She was in a marble casket in the crypt."

" Why are you telling me this?" I looked at him.

" I can't tell you everything I gave them my word. But I need you to tell Alice to keep her visions to herself. If it is something involving danger then of course but just like my visit. I changed my mind on something so it changed everything. I brought Braden this. Tell him it was his mothers when she was a little girl it was her favorite toy. This is from Aro, it was taken 3 weeks before she left Volterra." Joshua stepped away.

" Why can't I read you?" I asked.

" Because there is nothing that you need to hear. Tell Jacob to stay strong, it will never get easier but don't make my mistake." He ran into the woods and we haven't seen him since.

" Ucle Eward were go Papa?" Braden came out. " He give me dat?"

" Yes it was your momma's favorite toy." I told him and he took the picture and his little lip quivered. " Shh it's okay."

" It not come true. It not come true." Braden held the picture tight in his little hand and the bow in the other.

" Braden." Jacob took him from me and he gave the picture to him.

" No come true daddy momma no come back." He laid quiet against Jacob's chest. " Papa lire."

" No Braden, he went to Volterra, it's just Momma was hurt to badly to come back." I looked at Jacob. " Be strong you have to be."

" Could you if it was Bella." Jacob said and started to walk away.

" Jake, I couldn't read his mind, there is something else. Just have faith." I told him.

" Sure Sure." He walked in Braden's little face broke Rosalie first then Esme. It filled the room with sadness then Alice saw the picture.

Jacob's POV

Once the party ended I took the kids back home. Sarah was getting too big for her cradle that use to be mine when I was born but one more night won't hurt her. I put her in bed and sat the picture next to the bed.

" Come here little man. You got a lot of nice presents." I brushed his hair and braided it like Mia would do.

" Uh huh. Dis my favorite." He held the bow. " It was momma's."

" Maybe when I get home from work I can show you how to use it." I asked him.

" Momma showed me, I not good." He sniffled.

" I wasn't when I was little but my daddy wouldn't let me give up. He made me practice and now I hit a bulls eye every time." I pulled the covers over him and soon he fell asleep. I closed my eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

" Jacob Black you're terrible." Mia laughed as I chased her on the beach.

" Only because you make me." I laughed when I caught her cradling her in my arms and falling into the soft sand. " You alright?"

" My Jacob I'm pregnant not handy capped." Mia brought her lips to mine. " Mmm defiantly doing good."

" Ewe Momma Dad don't kiss." Braden laughed and Sarah giggled.

" Better be careful or I'll kiss you." Mia got up and started to go after the kids. " Oh, who wants to feel the baby."

" I do!" The two kids yelled.

" Daddy wake up." Braden shook me.

" What little man?" I asked.

" Auntie Rose here." He smiled. " Daddy you like Auntie Rose?"

" Sure Sure." I said putting my face in the pillow.

" You marry her?" He giggled.

" No Braden Uncle Emmett wouldn't like that, besides I'm married to Momma nothing changes that." I looked at him and he made a face.

" Hi boys, I'm not as domesticated as Esme or Bella so I stopped by the cafe and picked up breakfast." Rosalie looked at me and laughed. " Glad to see you're back to your self Dog."

" fuck." I tossed a pillow over my erection.

" Daddy you have to put a quarter in the bad word jar." Braden laughed.

" Da Da." Sarah laid in her cradle with a big smile.

" Come here Baby girl." I pulled her up on my chest. " You're gonna be as beautiful as your momma you know that. Braden and I will be beating those boys off you with a stick. Well unless you're just like your momma well then you just beat them off yourself."

" Da Da." Sarah smiled and made a sucking face.

" You hungry too?" I laughed and put her on the bed. " Let Daddy put on his shorts and I'll get you some of that baby cereal crap you have to eat." Sarah laughed and kicked her feet.

For the next month Braden and I worked on his bow shooting skill. Sarah started talking more and crawling. The pack had a bonfire to celebrate the end of winter. Our first snow free week came. I brought the kids and Leah just took them away.

" Auntie Leah Sarah said poo." Braden laughed.

" She's being a big girl isn't she." Leah laughed.

" Auntie Leah are you and Uncle Embry going to get married." Braden asked.

" No why?" Leah asked.

" Momma said you and Embry are imprints and you don't even know it." Braden said and at that time Embry heard him and for the first time locked eyes with Leah and boom. Mia was right. Leah started crying and holding tight to the kids.

" Leas what is it?" Embry ran over.

" She knew the whole time, the whole time Embry she saw it." Leah kissed him. " Damn you Mia, why."

" Because just like you, she puts the pack and her family first." Embry smiled.

" Daddy!" Braden screamed and pointed to the sky. " Star star."

" Make a wish." Leah smiled.

" Wishes are stupid." Braden crossed his arms.

" Nah, wishes aren't stupid it's how I got your momma." I took Braden. " Leah are you okay with Sarah?"

" Of course." Leah smiled.

I walked with Braden on my shoulders away from the crowd. " Braden, momma won't be coming home, you know she's in heaven. I know you want her home with us. But I can't make it happen. But it's okay for you to wish she was here. To want her to be here but that's when you talk to me, or one of your Auntie's or Uncles or Gran Esme or Grandpa Carlisle. They can tell you stories about her show you pictures. You'll always remember her that way then she'll always be with you."

" Daddy what if she is just lost and can't find us? Momma was special papa Josh said so. So did Uncle Eward." Braden said.

" Momma could always find us." I smiled and we went back to the party.

Meanwhile back in Volterra the Volturi were having issues of there own.

Aro's POV

" We need to handle this carefully." Aro ordered to the high ranking guards. " The Cullen's or the Dogs mustn't know. We will wait for Joshua to come back."

" Since when do we listen to a dog?" Caius hissed.

" If we listened to him all those years ago then Elizabeth would have lived. Now patience is something none of us is good at so it will take all of us to make this work." Marcus said.

" I agree with Caius, following directions from this animal, we know how to treat our kind." Felix hissed.

" Yes but it's not always the right way. Give him time. He's returning as we speak. No prepare to feed." Aro hissed.

" May I, join you?" A soft voice asked coming from the protective arm of Demetry.
