"Fair words, Carlisle. But a little out of place given the battalion you've assembled against us." Aro said in his calm yet sinister tone of voice. I looked towards Carlisle, my father, who was defending us.

"I can promise you, that was never my intent. No laws have been broken." Carlisle explained to his calm fashion, but I saw Caius speak up finally, looking rather agitated.

"We see the child, do not treat us as fools." He said in a sinister tone. I then saw Carlisle raise his voice and look way more defensive than he should.

"She is not, an immortal. These witnesses can attest to that. You can look. See the flush of human blood in her cheeks." Carlisle said aloud to a more defensive tone, having me see the father mode come out of him.

"Artifice!" Caius said in retaliation. BUt I saw Aro hold up a hand in his direction.

"I will collect every facet of the truth, but from someone more central to the story. Edward, as the child clings to your newborn mate, I assume you are involved." Aro said aloud, looking to my brother. As I watched Edward stroke his daughters hair before walking across the clearing to the Volturi, I kept my eyes on Demetri and saw him looking back at me with the same look of determination. He was looking or a fight with me, I knew it deep within me.

"I'd like to meet her." I heard Aro say aloud with interest in his voice. I watched helplessly as Bella, Jacob in his wolf form, Renesmee and Emmett walked towards Edward and Aro. I wished deeply inside of me that they would not be harmed by Aro and I hoped that he wouldn't try anything at all with them. Aro looked at both Bell and Renesmee, and then having the pure face of delight in Renesmee as soon as he heart her heartbeat.

"Half mortal, half immortal. Conceived and carried by this newborn, while she was still human." Aro explained aloud in a breathless tone.

"Impossible" Caius said aloud in confusion. I saw my family come back to our side of the clearing, safe and sound and I sighed in relief.

"Do you think they fooled me, brother?" Aro asked aloud in almost a sinister tone.

"Bring forward the informant." Caius said aloud, having me see two guard members drag Irina to the front of the group. I looked at Tanya and Kate, seeing them watch their sister as Aro and Caius ask if Renesmee as the child that Irina saw.

"The Cullens are innocent." I looked back when I heard Irina say this, "I take full responsibility for my mistake." She then looked at her family, well at all of us and I saw the sadness in her eyes.

"I'm sorry." She said aloud to us, having me feel a wave of sadness towards. I then saw one of the bigger guard members come up behind her, along with Demetri and I looked at Edward about to run forward.

"Caius, no!" Edward said aloud in a roar as Irina's arms were snapped off, and then her head. I wanted to run, but Kate and Tanya bolted towards them. As Garrett grabbed Kate and took her electric shock, Eleazar and Emmett grabbed Tanya.

"Blind them." Edward commanded at Zafrina, whom used her ability on both Kate and Tanya. They instantly calmed down and I saw Edward talking to them in a low tone. I looked back at Demetri, seeing him look at me as if he was waiting for my own reaction. I felt Sam take one step forward, looking at Demetri with rage as Irina's body was in pieces and in flames. I clung onto Sam, making sure he didn't do anything stupid.

"Don't do it." I whispered to him harshly, seeing him glare right back at Demetri with so much anger in his face I saw a vein pop out of his neck. He stepped back with me and I still held his hand, hoping to have him know that I won't have him do anything stupid.

Edward was about to walk back over to his family when I saw Jane look right at him and say one word, "Pain." Edward fell to the ground, grunting in pain as her ability was working on him. I cringed, hoping that I would help in somehow. But I looked over at Bella, seeing her concentrate on putting up her shield around Edward and our family. Within seconds, Edward felt no more pain and got up from being on his knees.

"It's working." He said aloud as Jane tried to hit someone else on our side with the ability, But nothing happened, and the look of desperation was all over her face as Carlisle spoke once more.

"Aro, you see there's no law broken here." Carlisle said aloud, trying once more to be reasonable with the Volturi. But I knew that he wouldn't stop there.

"Agreed. But does it then follow that there is no danger? For the first time in our history, humans pose a threat to our kind. Their modern technology has given birth to weapons that could destroy us. Maintaining our secret has never been more imperative. In such perilous times, only the known is safe. Only the known is tolerable, and we know nothing of what this child will become. Can we live with such uncertainty? Spare ourselves a fight today, only to die tomorrow." Aro explained aloud, having me think he was trying to convince his own witnesses that we were meant to die. There was more hatred coming through me at the sight of him already, from what he was saying. BUt before anyone could say anything else to make this either better or worse, I saw two figures coming through the woods and my breath was lost.

Alice and Jasper,

Our family was both thrilled and scared to see them as they walked over to Aro, who was beyond glad to see Alice. I knew he wanted her in his guard, since her ability was something he wanted to use. But now that she was there, and as Jasper was being held by two guard members, Alice spoke up. It was nice to hear her voice for the first time in months.

"I have evidence the child won't' be a risk to our kind." Alice explained to Aro aloud, though he looked at her with suspicion.

"Let me show you." She explained, holding out her hand for him to take. Aro took it and I watched as they were engrossed in their own powers and abilities. I feared what she saw and was showing him, but knowing Alice it was going to in fact be in our favor. I was in fact having a sigh of relief for a second, but that was instantly lost when I saw what was going to happen.

((Alice's Vision))

"It doesn't matter what I show you. Even when you see, you still won't change your decision." Alice said in a bitter tone, than looking behind her at Bella. I saw her whisper, "Now!" Seeing Renesmee being placed on Jacob and the both of them running off away from the clearing and the confrontation. I now worried for my niece and Jacob, not knowing if I was going to see them again.

"Get them!" I heard in a shout as I looked back at Alice kicking Aro high in the air. I looked in horror as Aro landed on his feet and ordered the guards to take her away. Jasper struggled to get free from his own confinement as other grabbed Alice. This was when Carlisle snapped and screamed at the top of his lungs, "Let her go!"

He bolted, ran as fast as he could towards Aro with so much anger in his face and eyes I knew this was real. I watched him move guards out of the way and was about to collided with Aro when the unthinkable happened. I screamed out in horror as Aro held out Carlisle's head in his hand.

Everything happened at once from that one simple action. We started to run, and we weren't going to take any mercy. I ran with Sam next to me, snarling under my breath as we heading towards the Volturi, whom were running towards us. This was really happening.

This was war.
