Dedication List

alexis. belt.7- Hey honey bear!

laniec21- Hello sugar pie!

CammieSarah51- Que pasa mi amigo!

Leah- Nothing... just... nothing. I'm kidding! Hey! Thanks for giving me an umbrella! I tried it out, IT'S HUGE!

Q: Do mermaids have a Facebook? A: Probably... I mean... if they wanted to I guess...

Q: Why is Didyme so evil? A: She doesn't want anyone ruling over her. In other words, she despises people who have more power than her. Also, she is a grumpy little tarder-sauce pants because she has lost her true love Marcus.

Q: How does she [Didyme] look different as a mermaid? A: Well, first she started out as a vampire, therefore enhancing her human beauty. THEN, she gets turned into a mermaid and even MORE enhancing her vampire beauty in CONCLUSION she looks TOTALLY prettier than she was as a vampire.

Q: Why is Bella so important? A: She has one small job, and another very important job. The small one is deciding the fate of a mermaid who has done wrong, and the important one is to keep the mermaids full of hope and stuff. Someone to look up to besides the three leaders of the Elders who always rats them out and gets them into trouble.

Q: Will they find out Lily knew the location of Bella, if so what will happen to her? A: Lily doesn't get into any trouble at all. In the end, Lily is still in the Elders because her role in the Elders is to gather information about what the mermaids want in their small part of land and to report it back to Didyme, who, if the problem is big enough, reports it to Bella who makes the final decision on a change or not.

Q: What do you think happened?[to dinos] A: To anyone who is confused, click on the review button in the summary box and read the twilightgirls2001's last question. Anyways! I think your theory probably is the best one I have ever heard in my entire life. It would make sense that they were aliens and crash landed because scientists only found half of the dino bones than they should have. The dinosaurs probably left BECAUSE of their home sickness. Genius...

DISCLAIMER TIME!

EMMETT: ...I mean seriously folks, who else thinks that Santa is a rapist? Anyone? Let me see a show of hands!

*Carlisle shoves Emmett off the stage and Emmett hits the 'Comedians Club' sign and knocks it down*

CARLISLE: Alrighty then... ahem, anyways! Next is my darling wife Esme, she is truly an angel, and trust me she won't give you any troubles. She will be performing a song called 'Twilight' she wrote it herself. I'm sure it's precious.

*Curtain is raised and Esme is dressed in all black, black wig, makeup and clothes*

ESME: Oh, um hi. Right... CICI DOESN'T OWN TWI-LIGHT! NO! NO! NO!

*Carlisle smacks his forehead and groans as metal rock music vibrates the entire building*

(Sorry for such a long author's note!)

Bella's POV

"Bella! Thank you so so much! You saved me!" Lindsey praised me. I gritted my teeth.

"Your welcome," I said through my clenched jaw. I could feel my eyes going dark once more with pure rage.

"If it wasn't for your perfection, you wouldn't be targeted as the next princess! And can you even really see the future? Because if you can, I bet you could have warned us that the Elders were coming! This is all your fault! You little brat! You selfish, ignorant little piece of useless space!" I shrieked. I cannot believe her! She can see the future! She should have told us! She's so selfish!

"Bella, calm down!" Carlisle said, placing his fatherly hand on my shoulder.

"No, get off of me!" I stepped away from his grasp. Lindsey was in the water so I kneeled and leaned down so our faces were inches apart.

"You'd better have a damn good reason you didn't tell me they were coming or I'll blow this pretty little head right off your shoulders!" I threatened. I meant it, too. I hissed at her and grabbed Edward's hand to pull him back to our rock when Lindsey rudely interrupted me.

"If I tried to change anything, then the situation would've been worse! The Elders are going to the vampire's rulers! They're going to blame Carlisle for stealing the princess and they're going to take me instead of you! Please! You can't let them take me!" If she could cry, she would. I could hear it in her voice.

"Why shouldn't I let them take you? Your just a vain, selfish little... All you've ever done was be rude. Shut up, you can get someone else to help you. I wouldn't be surprised if someone didn't help you. You always have to suffer the consequences, Lindsey. That's just why you just got to think of the future," I responded coldly. I heard her sobbing behind me as I walked away from her with Edward in tow. I no longer cared for her, had no emotions with Lindsey.

I pulled Edward back to my house and we sat in my room. Edward comforted me as we listened to the stereo he had given me Wednesday and even lended me some CD's to play.

"Who are the vampire's rulers, Edward?" I asked after I had calmed down. I recall Lindsey mention them during our fight.

"Just how mermaids have the Elders as the rulers of mermaids, vampires have the Volturi as vampire rulers. There are three main leaders. Marcus, Aro, and Caius. They enforce every law, know about almost everything that happens, and even make unexpected visits once in a while."

"Where do they live?"

"In Volterra, Italy. Why?"

"Because the mermaid castle is in Spain. We're very close to the Volturi."

"Are there mermaids all over the world like vampires?"

"Yes, Edward."

Marcus's POV

Aro, Cauis, and I were sitting on our thrones at the castle's main court room. Alex and Demetri burst through the giant double door followed by eight women wearing identical orange sundresses. I recognized the leader immediately. She was more beautiful than before and instead of red eyes, she had a beautiful sky blue. Didyme looked at me wistfully and was about to take a step towards me but decided against it. She took one look at Aro and her eyes went black with ferocity.

"Didyme," said Aro in disbelief, "What are you doing here? I told you never to return!" Aro yelled at her. Aro got up and ran to her and was about to hit her when I ran in and flipped him away.

"Do not lay one harming finger on my wife!" and Aro crumbled to the floor, some fingers unattached.

"She's no longer your wife if she left you," Aro said and reattached his fingers.

"I didn't leave you Marcus, but that's not the reason I came here," Didyme yelled. I froze. I realized then that if Didyme was alive all of these years, why hadn't she come back to me?

I looked down to her wedding finger and the golden band I put on her all of those years ago was still there. I slowly gained confidence again.

I led Didyme and the rest of her group to a separate room and she told me all of her troubles.

"It's all Carlisle's fault," she told me with guilty eyes.

I gave Aro my hand after I had talked with Didyme so he could see what she told me, and we planned the visit to Olympic coven's home.

Again I am SOOO sorry for the SUPER DUPER LLLOOONNNGGG author's note! It's just that, there are so many nice people! I don't want to let them down or anything. But, speaking of letting people down, I bet you all are down for this short chapter. It's unfulfilling, unworthy of a review...

DON'T FORGET TO REVIEW! If you say 'Post Name' at the end of your review then I will put your name on the Dedication List! Nothing personal is being done, just your name on that list! People do it all the time!
