Well I've decided to just throw caution to the wind and use my own imagination for the story, and anything similar to the book's general line will be because I didn't find something to replace it. So I hope I do alright, it won't be totally out of nowhere I'll make sure it makes sense within the realm of possibility as far as vampires and such go. OH MY GOD! I got so many wonderful reviews ya'll are so great! Unfortunately I can't answer you all, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate the reviews! A lot of you guys thought it was the baby (ies) who Edward can hear! Well I can't tell you, but just read and found it!

Melanieintn: Thank you for reviewing on every chapter! I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Skyler Black: That seems to be a major favorite, a mini Jasper, but you'll just have to see

Soulsistersinaslan: That's what everyone is thinking! Possibly but I have plans for Edward. I'm not a big fan of graphics, but I know they are necessary for some stories, but for this one, I didn't think it would work, I'm glad my readers got the basis of what was going to happen.

Deltagrl: Yes Jasper's just kind of guy, gotta give every a shot. Honestly? You're review confused me, how is he not honest with Bella? Perhaps I misinterpreted what you wrote? Alice is pretty much done with, I needed her for a while but as she said she doesn't want to be on the other end of Jasper's fury.

AbbeNormal: Of course writers add twists! It wouldn't be fun if they didn't I promise you'll enjoy finding out. It's hard to feel bad for Alice, most reviewers agree but yes Edward finally need to get his head out of his rear end and realize he's a vampire, whom all have animalistic tendencies. Thank you!

JXB Addicted: I didn't even know that was how they described the boys and girls as vemonous or not. Interesting, well I'm honestly not sure. You'll just have to see

Krystal214: Apparently Alice is taking over because I don't recall writing in an informant and other reviewers believe she's not quite done. Well not even I know, so we'll see maybe she's make another move? Anyways yes Edward is finally accepting his role and power. Yes you would think she would just spilled her guts and told them every detail but eh. You like everyone else think it's the baby! Lol Just have to see

TrueSkye: Yep Edward finally found his cajones and took charge of his mate. It was a necessary thing he had to do. Everyone thinks it the baby! You'll just have to see

Disclaimer: Obviously just using the characters for my amusement

"What do you mean who else is here? You know everyone who is here Edward." Jasper went on the defensive, surprised anyone would dare to trespass on their home. He was very alert and generally on patrol, the threat of the Volturi still on his mind.

"I'm not sure, I'm getting everyone's normal thoughts, I can tunes those out, but the new ones are different, almost intelligent but still…childlike?" He let the question hang in the air, before it clicked with Japer.

Baby, mind reader, Bella Jasper lead Edward to where Bella was sitting with Rose and Charlotte, helping Bree with some online classes she'd wanted to take. The youngster was quiet but quite bright and eager to learn.

"Is it getting clearer here?" He asked the possibly already playing in his head. Edward quickly went to Bella when he saw attempt to stand up.

"Hey now Bells no need to get up, oh wow, I see now." Edward helped Bella sit back down and she gave him a quizzical look, unaware of what Edward had said before.

"What are you talking about Edward?" She looked between him and Jasper and obviously it wasn't bad since no one was growling or attacking each other. Edward slowly placed a hand on Bella's rounded stomach, carefully with Jasper standing behind him.

"I can hear their thoughts." He smiled at Bella and Jasper stood by wide-eyed.

"You can hear them?" Bella asked happily. Her smile contagious as Edward grinned and Bree and Charlotte cooed and Rose and Esme gasped.

"Them?" Jasper heard more than one and immediately was concerned for his mate, one baby was hard enough, but two?

Bella is strong, only one who would be strong enough to carry our children. Proud of her, you know she's our goddess. Jasper didn't even bother to try to process what Major just told him. Bella smiled so brightly, rubbing her hand over her belly.

"Oh Edward, we thought they could hear us, he'll stop kicking me when Jasper talks to him, but I didn't even consider you'd be able to hear them." Bella didn't seem to realize just what Edward had said until just then. "Them you said them, there's more than one?" She asked quietly, not waiting to be disappointed.

"No you heard me right, I hear two distinct thoughts, I'm not entirely sure, but I think one's a boy and one's a girl. They understand you're their mother, and Jasper's their father, they enjoy it when you talk to them and tell them stories, they listen to Jasper when he says they're kicking too hard, they already love you both as their parents. I think they understand you aren't exactly like them and they're trying to go easier on you, by not moving too much." Bella smiled and couldn't contain her happiness. What Renee had denied her as child, her love and affection, Bella wanted to be sure her child, her children never felt that way.

"I'm getting Carlisle, perhaps with Edward here; he can examine you and get a better understanding of what should be done when they're ready." Jasper was seemingly on autopilot and Bella feared her husband was hit with too much at one point. She sighed and purposely made a whining noise, she'd noticed from time to time, noises seemed to get Jasper's attention better than when she merely called him. She chalked it up to Major being in tuned to her.

Bella! Jasper rushed back to her side, touching her face looking for signs of distress.

"Stay. I want to talk with you." Bella tugged him down by her side. She turned to the others. "Edward go find Carlisle and Peter and explain what you can hear, Esme, Rose, let's move Bree into the library and continue working there. Charlotte, go with them, while I speak with my husband." Bella's voice didn't leave room for argument and the room was quickly emptied.

"Bella really-" She tugged on his shirt and silenced him with a kiss.

"Listen up Cowboy. I know you're worried about us, me and the babies, but trust me I'm okay, I'll let you know when I'm in pain and when I need something. Right now, what I want, what I need is my husband, my mate, to finish the nursery now that we know it's for two, and probably a boy and girl. Then I want you to quit being on auto pilot and be a part of this family again." Jasper didn't see it, and Bella didn't either, but Major did. He saw his beautiful independent mate, take charge of her family and household, he knew he should try to reign in Jasper, but sometimes it he needed to be in charge, and it was his nature to protective and worry about his mate and now his children.

Another two weeks passed. Edward went back and forth between checking on Alice and standing guard with Bella, as the infants grew, their combined strength and need for nutrients began to take its toll on Bella, which sent Jasper close to the edge several times. The only saving grace was Charlotte was able to make combinations of food and blood that kept Bella healthy and the twins fed, and Edward being able to communicate with them while Carlisle and Peter got things ready for their imminent birth. With Edward being able to speak with them, and the twins picking up more and more from people surrounding them, they were able to determine how much longer they would need to stay in the womb until they could survive on their own. The twins were conscious about what they're presence was doing to their mother and it caused a little stress, something Carlisle and Peter spoke to Bella, Jasper and Edward about, trying to keep them calm. Each night Jasper would lay beside Bella speaking to them, reassuring them they were wanted and couldn't wait until they were born, explaining how their lives would be and how many people were excited. Of course he made it a point to tell to be careful with their mom, and Bella always swatted at him, saying as long they were okay she would be fine. But Major and Jasper didn't agree, Major would on occasion have a little tidbit or word for the twins which was always well receive. It was subtle, but Jasper started noticing changes in his mate. For one, she was becoming more vampiric, her diet of mixed food and blood was becoming more part blood than food. Second, Major was subtly phasing in and out with Jasper, not so much pulling Jasper back, but integrating his thoughts into Jasper's. Bella seemed to be responsive to Major now, as if she, even in her human state, recognized him and was showing her affections.

"Hey Major? Bella we need to speak with you." Peter poked his head into their bedroom while Bella was sitting in bed reading, Jasper curled up next to her talking to the twins. When Peter entered Jasper immediately when back to on the defense, non-aggressively of course.

"What's up Captain?" He took Bella's hand and tried to relax back down. Peter motioned and Carlisle came in as, they stayed by the door, but close enough to speak clearly.

"My timeline I gave Bella was for only infant, now with two, and for them to both be growing quickly and healthy, I think it would be better, mostly for Bella's health that we only keep in the womb a few more days, a week at the most. The strain is taking a toll on you Bella," She immediately tried to disagree but Carlisle waved his hand.

"I know you want to do the best for them Bella, but you dying for them isn't an option and if they stay any long that's what will happen. You'll die. But we have an advantage, as Edward can communicate with them, we can see how much more time they need and where they are. With him talking them through hopefully they won't panic and stress, keeping you calm would also be needed. From now on you're on strict bed rest; it's getting harder for you to move around as it is." Carlisle was all doctor now, and while Bella didn't like it, if Peter and Carlisle thought it was best for the twins then she wouldn't argue with them.

"How do we plan to get them? Obviously a natural birth is out of the question." That was something Bella wasn't too terribly disappointed about, having to squeeze something the size of a watermelon through something the size of lemon, well it wasn't high on her list of things to do while she was human, but having them, the twins, she'd suffer through or at least she thought she would have.

"C-section, from what I can tell, there is a thin layer of skin preventing them from being see with equipment, I'm not even sure if a scalpel would be able to penetrate it, if that happens then," Carlisle seemed uncomfortable with what he was trying to say and it was agitating Jasper.

"Just spit it out Carlisle, what?" Bella touched his arm, giving him a look of reprimand, he sighed. "Sorry, just what exactly is making you second guess." Carlisle looked at Peter and he sat down on a chair by the window.

"If I can't use a scalpel, then it would only something with vampire strength would be able to penetrate it, meaning me, Peter, Edward or you, would have to break it, probably using our teeth, I would suggest nails but unless there was something to dig into to begin with they wouldn't be much use." Carlisle had a perfect record and blood wasn't an issue for him. Peter had had his share in the past but he didn't think his sister-in-law's blood would hold any draw, honestly he hardly noticed it since he arrived. It was the first time Edward had been brought up in the conversation but it was obvious he would have to be there, someone to keep the twins calm and not making it harder than needed. Jasper knew his track record wasn't the greatest, and yes Bella's blood was a draw to him, but not because he wanted to kill her or drain her, but because it was something that kept her alive and breathing. The fact that someone's mouth would be that close to his mate, to his children, nearly sent Major over the edge,

"It would have to be you Carlisle." His voice was quiet, dark, and Bella nuzzled up against him to bring him back to her. Her big strong husband was sometimes so vulnerable, it was apparent only Bella could see just how many walls and defense he had.

"So it would seem."

The most recent report was delivered to Aro on a silver platter. The messenger one of many receptionists in the Volturi employment, briefly he thought her name to be Alicia.

"What news do you have for us?" She handed him the letter and quickly retreated back to her station. One too many of her friends had disappeared and she would rather not be next on the list.

Aro elegantly sliced the letter open and quickly scanned the writing. He was disappointed. Nothing new to report. His little spy hadn't contacted him in quite some time and as Isabella Swan wasn't here yet it was obvious she wasn't aware of her particular powers yet. After first learning about dear Isabella, Aro commissioned more investigations, she had spirit and was fiercely loyal, something he saw in his own mate, Sulpicia, his Cia. Isabella would be wonderful little addition to his guard, that ability of hers to shield would be most useful. He saw more of a young daughter in her, though he was hardly close to the girl, she had the entire Cullen coven protecting her. They misunderstood his interest in her. It was also of interest that it was rumored this particular power she posses was suppose to complement the emotional powers of the God of War. Someone Aro had not had the pleasure of meeting. It crossed his mind perhaps Isabella would be the God of War's mate and he might acquire him as well into the guard. It would all have to be visited again; after all as Alice had said the future was undecided.

"Something troubling you?" Caius questioned him as he peered closer to read the non-descriptive letter.

"Not particularly, though I wonder if a little visit to 'check in' on Isabella would be nice." Perhaps it was another gift of hers, but Aro found himself worrying about the girl, almost as if he cared. Caius raised an eyebrow cautiously.

"Isn't the year almost up? I suppose a couple of weeks earlier would hardly do any damage. Shall we leave in a week?" Marcus chimed in. He was growing quite bored with no news or rebel to deal with, everyday becoming quite tiresome. A little visit to a family on the edge would perfectly fine in his mind.

"Are we in agreement then?" Aro questioned, Caius and Marcus nodded the trip would be perfectly fine with them.

"Agreed"

Edward sat on the floor while Bella and Jasper were curled up on the couch, he couldn't lie he was enjoying the thoughts of his niece and nephew, now that it closer to their arrival they understood a lot more, they could associate voices with the names that Bella and Jasper gave them. It was something Peter explained that he learned from the other hybrids they grew quickly and stop aging when they looked about eighteen to twenty. With that knowledge it was easy to guess they started learning within the womb. They were very eager to meet everyone, making them very active and Edward and Jasper did their best to keep them calm while they were still in Bella's fragile womb.

"They're very excited, they know it will be soon and they're growing impatient." Edward smiled back at Bella. She looked at Jasper, her eyes full of love and adoration. Edward felt guilty like he was invading such a personal moment. Bella was practically glowing, her eyes full of life and love. He wished he could change what Alice had done, or their whole family would have been able to see this, her wonderful beauty that complimented Jasper so perfectly, a whole lot soon. From when she first walked into Forks High School, they could have been a happy family. He turned his face way, listening as the babies giggled at his thoughts, it was becoming apparent that they understood more, and Edward had to work to keep his mind from darker possibilities.

"Hey Bella," Rose stood at the door, a glass in hand. "It's time to eat," She said, her voice a little sad. She knew it was nutrients for the babies Bella carried but to know her sister-in-law had to consume blood, as a human…it didn't exactly disgust her, but it was frowning thought in her mind.

"Oh Thanks Rose," Bella took the glass and began to take short sips every few minutes. Edward heard the thoughts of happiness from the twins, and he immediately went to calm them down. Didn't need them to jostle Bella around, it seemed like her once small baby bump had double over night and Jasper took up the charge of moving her to and from rooms, Emmett also played moving man, teasing Bella about her "extra weight" Something she couldn't wait to be able to smack him upside the head to actually hurt.

"Oh, they aren't listening huh? First act of rebellion?" Bella tried to smile through the forceful kick to her stomach. She gasped as it happened again, Please babies, calm down she rubbed her hand soothingly over her belly, willing them to relax. Jasper went on high alert, even going so far to use his powers to try and bring them down a level.

Edward! Jasper kept his calm, collected appearance, not needing to upset Bella, but he couldn't help the sick feeling that was welling up in the pit of his stomach.

I'm trying, they aren't listening something wrong, all I'm getting is hurt, painful make it stop, they're crying for you to make it stop. Edward's face was relaxed as his mind reached out to Carlisle and Peter, the worry and fear evident.

Something's wrong with the twins.

The next few moments seemed like an eternity.

Please don't kill me! I wanted to get you guys up to chapter 10, but I had a very sudden death in my family, and I'm not sure when I'll be up to writing again, I'm trying to keep up my happiness and continue writing, but it's painful to see the only strong man I know break down in tears. It's going to be a very hard next two days, please bear with me.

Anyways, Alice is truly done with, I might have her come back but only to help not hinder. The Volturi are coming early, and it would seem the twins have a mind of their own. Edward loves his role as uncle and he only sees Bella as his sister. So don't worry about any drama with that. I know I've focused a lot of the main characters, but Rose, Esme, Emmett, Peter, Charlotte and Bree will have their time in spotlight not to worry.

Thanks for understanding
