Chapter 55 – Have A Purpose Part 4

Sam's POV

We all looked at Asher who smiled. What was he doing at that school's prom?

"Asher here told the entire police force to release us. They didn't recognize him until he took off his shades. That's when they freaked out and let us go instantly." Jalen said.

"How did you get the entire police force to do what you say?" Renee asked Asher.

"Yeah, what did you do?" I asked him.

"I happened to be the commissioner of the police department, remember?" Asher said. Oh right, I think he said something similar about it to Charlie.

"Yeah he got the police force to let go of everyone, except me." Jalen said. Oh right, Jalen's a wanted man. "I was still about to be taken because of what everyone believes but then my English teach E.D. stepped in and told everyone that I didn't do any of those crimes I was framed for and my whole life." Wait, she knows about Jalen? How?

"I never actually told you guys my foster sister's name, haven't I." Jalen said. "E.D. actually stands for Elena Diane Margaret who is now Elena Pennington."

"What!" We all turned to Elena who smiled as she held her daughter.

"You're Jalen's foster sister?!" Nina asked her.

"You were their teacher?!" Mom asked her.

"Yes," Elena said. "I've lived in that foster home with Jalen since we were kids. He was the only one who cared for me back then. Since he was there for me, it was my turn to help him while trying to get him to remember me before we clear his name. I guess Orion had something else in mind on when I should reveal myself to Jalen."

"Either way, I'm happy to be reunited with Elena after so long and so happy to see that she's doing well and is okay." Jalen said as Elena softly cries.

"Here's the surprising part; even though the whole school knows that I'm an adult going to high school, I've been praised by everyone with respect. Even the adults I remembered on my time on the run remembered me for what I did helping them and they were expressing their gratitude towards me." Jalen said causing us to be very surprised. Wow. "Only one person was not so happy with the results of the night apart from his friends."

"How bad did Orion take it?" Charlie asked.

"Orion threw a hissy fit trying to tell everyone what was supposed to be going on and that we're different only the school thought Orion meant different as in just different normal you would say." Lucas said.

"He tried to show everyone the files but I destroyed them before Orion called the cops on us." Edward said looking pleased.

"And I hacked into Falkner's phone tablet erasing all data of ours and locked him out of our files with a program way too advanced for him to crack down." Lucas said. God, Lucas never fails to amaze me with his skills.

"And then Orion got busted in front of everyone when Elena knew that he blackmailed me to break up Bryce and Lucina." Jalen said. Whoa, how did she know about it?

"I was kinda following you guys most of the time." Elena said explaining.

"That's when Lucina stomped on Orion's foot for what he did and Bryce punched him in the face!" Emmett said.

"And it felt good!" Bryce said earning a high five from Jalen.

"And then the principal came saying Bryce is expelled." Jalen said.

"Are you kidding me? After what Orion did – oh don't say it!" Russell said. Yeah, I can't believe after all that, the principal still sides with Orion.

"We were all about to be expelled and Elena was about to get fired until the superintendent came." Bryce said.

"Apparently, he got a call about what was going on at prom." Elena said.

"That would be us." Alice said. Of course it was. "We called Superintendent Ted Turner and he was able to see what was happening and he was not so please with Mr. Bitters especially with files of student reports of bullying and mistreatment he received that Mr. Bitters fails to report but we'll get to that later."

"So anyway, Orion and Mr. Bitters were told to leave the dance and everyone was glad for that to happen." Jalen said. "We resumed the dance where I was dancing with Elena where she told me about what happened to her and how she knew that Tiffany's my wife minus knowing Lucina's my daughter while she also told me that she and Asher ran into the Denalis and my old coven in Alaska. That's when Tiffany cut in. Everyone knew who I was so we didn't see the harm dancing together. Then it was time to announce prom king and queen."

"It was definitely not Ariel and instead Amber." Lucina said. Well good.

"And the king was yours truly." Bryce said smiling.

"Congrats Bryce!" I said.

"Yeah but what Bryce did was so cool." Jacob said.

"Normally, the king and queen share a dance together but all I wanted was to dance with the girl I love and that is Lucina. So I told Amber and she agreed and I asked Lucina to share a dance with me." Bryce said.

"And we all danced the night away to a night to remember." Lucina said.

That is so beautiful and great that things didn't go bad to the Cullens.

"So after prom, we all returned home with Elena and Asher who wanted to catch up with us. Asher also informed me to be at court to be sure my foster parents will be arrested for what they did to me and Elena. And they did end up in jail with my name all cleared." Jalen said.

"That's great to hear Jalen." Dad said. Yeah, now he's a free man. Well, free vampire.

"Also I apologized to the Cullens for what happened even though they could never blame me for it. Then after Asher and Elena left, we had more things to worry about and that was about Jemma and Raymundo and the Volturi." Jalen said.

"That's when Elena returned with a letter to us." Carlisle said causing Elena to be surprised. "It's from the Volturi."

Are you kidding me?! Again?!

"I know what you all are thinking because we had the same reaction until we read the letter." Edward said. "First, they offered us to join them. Hold on." He said when we were about to complain. "It's actually from Marcus."

"Is there a difference?" Dexter asked.

"Aro's dead." Edward said causing us to be silent. I have no words to say about this news.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Marcus knew the truth about what happened to his wife." Edward explained. "How he knew was from the Romanian coven. How they know was from Jemma and Raymundo. So those two did have something to do with the Volturi's future. The question is what for?

"Here's how it went down and how Alice wasn't able to see all of it." Carlisle said. "Someone was working with Jemma and the others that we never knew about; her name is Robyn. The Romanians met Jemma ten years ago. They soon started planning to take down the Volturi and Robyn created an army of newborns trained to end them."

"They actually took down the Volturi?" Charlie asked. "There's no way they would stand a chance against them."

"The army took down the Volturi using our gifts." Edward said.

"What?!"

"How?" Mom asked.

"It was Raymundo; he collected everything from us, remember? He knows about our background history, our relationship, what we know including our gifts." Edward explained. "When he informed Robyn of this, she used her gift to mimic the gift. She can't use it herself and instead transfers it to others. Robyn has to either witness the gift herself or have felt it from someone's mind that has seen it to get the idea. Since Raymundo has everything on us, Robyn gathered every gift she knows from his gift and gave the entire army a copy of our gifts making them unstoppable." No way. I thought. That is just… unexpected.

"So the Volturi is done?" Nina asked.

"Yes," Carlisle said nodding his head. "First they told Marcus the truth and he soon turned against Aro igniting the fight. After awhile, the Romanians along with Robyn, Jemma and Raymundo won the battle and apprehended the members of the Volturi. First, they executed Aro, not before Robyn copied his gift, for killing his own sister and many flaws he caused to others. Then, Caius, for his ruthless and merciless acts, then Alec and Jane, Chelsea, Heidi, Felix, and many other guards. There were some lost on the Romanian side including Stephan and their coven's army." Wow that's… good?

"Demetri also went against the Volturi." Edward said. "Demetri killed Felix when he tried to attack Jemma. Since Chelsea was executed, he's free from her influence and has decided to go with her along with Raymundo to rejoin Amun and the others back to Egypt."

"That leaves only Marcus and the wives." Carlisle said.

"So, did you guys join the Volturi?" Dad asked.

"You can say that we have but not in those words." Carlisle said smiling. Huh? "We talked it over back in Volterra and my family and decided that Marcus, the wives and Vladimir will still run things in Italy while everything is lead by us while we still live with humans."

"No way!" I said.

"Yep, you're looking at the best version of the Volturi! OW!" Emmett cried when Rosalie amusingly smacked his head.

"So what do you guys do?" Renee asked.

"You can probably guess that I'm the leader of the foundation of our peace and civilization while I still do my job as a doctor." Carlisle smiled.

"And I will be by his side whenever he needs me." Esme smiled squeezing Carlisle's hand.

"I will also be by Carlisle's side using my mind reading gift to receive information from someone if they have a crime to report and such." Edward said.

"I will use my visions to know what's going on and to see if things are out of the ordinary." Alice beamed.

"I get to rip people apart if they break any laws!" Emmett said excitedly. Something tells me he enjoys it.

"Like I did with Maria's army, I'm in charge of combat training new members to be guards without having to dispose those that are no longer worthy." Jasper said.

"Nessie, Lucina and I are the secretaries." Rosalie said.

"With my gift to show people my thoughts, Lucina communicating those she believes she's comfortable with and Rosalie immense beauty to find others to join us," Nessie said.

"We make an amazing team." Lucina smiled.

"I will still be teaching but if someone is hurt, vampire or human, I'll heal them with my gift. I will also act as a spy with my other gift to see through someone's eyes once I'm told who it is and I encounter them physically." You go girl! That's my sister you guys!

"I act as the guy to persuade others with my charm. So if there is some group of vampires causing trouble to one, I will find my way to convince them easily to join us." Bryce said. That won't be hard.

"With Demetri gone, I have taken his place as the sole tracker. I'll be able to track people down no problem." Jalen said with a brag.

"With help from me." Krystal said. "I'm his second in command in case Jalen's busy and since I'm the fastest."

"Not for long!" Edward said causing us to laugh.

"As for Bella and me, you're looking at the new Alec and Jane who are not powerfully scary." Lucas said.

"With my shield and Lucas's aura, we're an unstoppable team." Bella said making Charlie and Renee smile proudly.

"Plus I am also a part of it so I can send information to the pack on the update." Jacob said.

"So yeah, we're now the largest coven in history. We are still a family with just us. We will still live our lives with the humans but everyone in the vampire world now knows about us." Jalen said. "We made one slight adjustment to the laws."

"What's that?" Dexter asked.

"Well still, our existence must be kept secret, but if you have human family or anyone connected to that are still living, they have the right to know as long as they keep their word to keep our secret safe.

"Of course we will." We all said. Even Russell was serious about it. So I guess that now the Cullens are the new Volturi and they say it's safe to tell us about all of this, we won't be killed. Wow, just… wow.

"Now that we had gotten that part of the way, it's time for one last thing; graduation." Jalen said. "Bryce and I graduated and so did Rosalie, Emmett and Jasper and the rest of our class."

"The only people who didn't graduate are the so called Big Five." Bryce said chuckling. "They all got expelled for bullying and mistreatment to other students. It was right in front of the whole school and their parents at an assembly by the superintendent. And Orion lost his chances of running his family's company for what he did to us." Well it serves him right.

"They're not the only ones in trouble." Elena said. "Mr. Bitters was not only in huge trouble for showing favoritism to some students and treating others poorly by giving unfair punishments, he's in trouble for using a new – unauthorized – procedure policy so that teachers are to only let Mr. Bitters take action of any student complaint and he and only he would decide what to do." Unbelievable of that guy! "So basically, any student that mistreats others gets away with it. Because of all of that, Mr. Bitters has been fired and has lost his school privileges from the school board where he will never be hired by any district."

"Plus with all the money he used to fund only important things and using the rest on himself for selfish reasons, Mr. Bitters has been fined with an amount that's worth more than Orion and his friends making a life time, combined. To sum it up, he ended up broke losing everything in his office selling them along with his house to return the money to the school and he had to move back home with his cranky old mother." Jalen said. Finally!

"Since Mr. Bitters and The Big Five's expulsion, North Central High had done a complete one-eighty since then. Everyone started treating others with respect. Even the jocks, cheerleaders and those at the top of the food chain respected those below them also having their backs if some still picks on them. People even started dating others that are not from their status kindly like the version of Colton the jock and Amber the brainiacs." Bryce said. Wow, didn't see that coming but that's great. Now people will understand that you don't go and follow the status quo.

"Also, I've been promoted to principal of the school." Elena said smiling proudly. Awesome!

"And she's now the mother of my goddaughter Melissa." Jalen said smiling towards her as Melissa woke up and turned her head to Jalen with a smile.

"So the Cullens were there attending the ceremony along with Bryce's family and the Denalis as well with my old coven. Then it was time to celebrate at our home." Jalen said. "I was reunited with my old coven where they were asking me and Bryce about our plans."

"You see I am now studying at UW with a full scholarship due to my parents being notable alumni when they studied there. I'm studying business management and graphic design. Once I get my degrees, I'll be working at my family's company and one day, taking it over like my parents. In about fifty years later on or so, I will continue owning the place pretending to be a new heir." Jalen said. Damn!

"As for me, I'm also studying at UW but not on the basketball scholarship that I was offered. I'm studying English to pursue a career in writing stories." Bryce said. "I already got the idea of my first story; it's based on the events on my journal minus the supernatural. It's gonna be titled "Now I'm Here."" Wow, that is so cool of Bryce for wanting to become a writer.

"Then Bryce and I heard something, separately." Jalen said. "I heard my parents and Bryce heard his. That's when we saw them." Man, did every member of the Cullen family saw their dead family?

"Then we came back to where the party was and the place nearly empty except for a few guests. Lucina was talking to her friends." Jalen said.

"Jalen hopes that when Lucina is old enough, I'll be there for her. I'm fine with that. And then I teased asking Jalen if I should call him dad." Bryce said causing the guys to laugh.

"Never in a million years." Jalen said. "Soon, we were joined by Lucina and Tiffany and then Lucas and Krystal talking about how expected our lives have been."

"That's when Edward started chasing after Jacob wanting to kill him." Lucas said laughing as did the others minus Edward.

"Why?" Ellie asked.

"Because Nessie has made me and Edward grandparents." Bella said laughing.

"Jacob and I are now parents to Evan Thomas Black and Sarah Rose Black." Nessie said as Jacob smiled with joy as the little twins smiled.

"Oh my gosh, you made me a great grandmother?!" Renee said causing Charlie to laugh.

"So yeah, after watching Edward chasing Jacob, we all came in where Elena wanted to take a picture of us." Jalen said and Elena pulled out her camera showing a photo taken where the Cullens were together. Wow.

"And that led us to now." Tiffany said. Wow, a happy ending. So does that mean we're done? Edward nodded to me and Evan and Sarah yawned along with Nina and the other kids. It's only 10:30. Man that was less longer than I thought. I do have one question though; what happens now?
