AN: I want to thank AmyLNelson and Briana for their reviews last chapter. This chapter was difficult to write. I couldn't find any way around it though. Twilight is not mine, fyi.

Bella had never experienced one of Alice's visions before, never like this. Bella had used her mirror ability with Edward a few times before she had joined the Volturi so she had heard Alice think of the future. She could understand her predictions, but this vision was something different. It came out of nowhere, and it took Alice over. Bella became engrossed. She was in Alice's mind, and Alice was in the future. She had been pulled to like someone was dragging her by her mind. Bella could smell taste see everything with perfect clarity. She was with Alice, and Edward was there too. The horrible thing about it was the fact that this vision seemed unpreventable.

Bella could see and smell her own death. She saw her own head in the pyre and next to her lay Edward. She could not understand why they both lay there, but she soon realized that Edward was not dead. He was merely lying next to her dead body. The entire Cullen family was devastated, but no other Vampires were dead. No other vampires were burning. The sickly almost sweet smell was she and Edward combined in the final death.

The vision ended as abruptly as it started and seemingly nothing much had happened here. When Bella released her hold on her minds mirror capabilities she began to realize that in fact nothing was happening. It seemed that no one had made any moves, but the entire room was still tense. She realized no one, but she, Alice, and Edward realized why Alice had screamed. Bella realized then why the vision had seemed inevitable.

"Aro my son, I have created you, and you have seen me both in this life and the former. I command you as your creator to destroy me. I wish death upon myself, and none other." Bella began speaking to Aro alone even though she knew the rest could hear. "Aro, I know you meant well in creating your family, but you have failed me son. I did not mean for the Volturi to become this wretched ruling being. I wish you to disband it. You are to follow the Cullens. I have lived with them in this final reincarnation of mine. I have seen their kind and caring ways. I wish their compassion on the entire Vampire race. I wish one day to smile down from my place in heaven and see all Vampires with golden eyes. I know that you can. I created you because I saw the good in you. You have disappointed me recently, but I know the good is still there. I wish you to understand the ways of the Cullens, and I forgive you your mistakes. The laws I left in my last reincarnation have become outdated and archaic. You followed them as I asked, but you should have had the insight to change what needed to be changed. You should have seen the place needed for Vampires in this world. So now my one and only son please destroy your Queen so she may rest in peace for eternity."

Bella hoped Aro would accept her reasoning. He had been planning to kill her if she had sided with the Cullens anyways. As he approached her though she could see the eyes of the human she had changed. She could see the understanding and compassion she had wished upon him. She could see all of Aro as he approached her. Aro knelt down in front of Bella and took her hand to kiss it one last time. Bella saw in his mind all of the compassion and love for her. She saw his minds torment over choosing whether or not to kill her. She saw the moment he decided that following Bella's command was going to be his repentance. Finally, as Aro stood up to Bella's full height she saw him decide to kill her as she had commanded it. "As you wish my Queen." He spoke that one sentence and then dropped her hand and she could see his thought process playing out in front of her.

It was almost in slow motion. She saw his arms slowly start to ascend. She was imagining the peacefulness of death. The anguish she felt over betraying Edward would be gone. She fantasized about not having to hold the pain in her chest. She saw her millennium with Edward play out in front of her before Aro's hands made it to her head. She saw the love in Edward's eyes as he knelt down to change her. She saw the look in his eyes when they were finally married. She remembered waking up from her change and knowing all of her past lives, but realizing that he was still the only one for her and that she could never love any other. Bella's mind was processing the countless years they had spent wrapped in each other's arms. The few times they went through college. The years they ventured away from home to just enjoy each other's company. Her mind was reeling from the memories. She witnessed again and again each event of her existence with Edward, even the ones from her human life. She could see only him. She could see only his love, and finally as Aro's hands reached her neck she saw the last most painful image. She relived Alice's vision. She saw herself dead, burning, and she saw Edward alive next to her. She heard his venomous thoughts of hate. She heard over and over again as he thought those few words that should have made her cry.

Her mind had given her heaven and hell in the millisecond before Aro was going to kill her. Her mind had shown her all of the good that the world had to offer, but it had also steeled her determination. Bella had no reason to live as long as Edward hated her. She needed to end her life so that she could get rid of the searing pain that had been present since she had heard Edward's thoughts.

As Aro's hands graced Bella's head and neck, Bella closed her eyes. She imagined it was her wedding day. She pictured walking down the aisle towards Edward. She saw his grin and she marched, her human body was clumsy and she almost tripped, but this was perfection, and Bella would march into death with this final vision.

AN: Review if you want the next chapter up sooner.
