"What is it now?" Aro sounded cranky that we were calling him again but he could get over it, we had no choice but to call him.

"We found Annalisa, dealt with the problems and questioned her." I tried to remain calm while I spoke but inside I was terrified.

"So why are you calling me, you know what to do." Aro may love me like a daughter but out in the field he was the perfect mean boss.

"She isn't working on her own desires Aro" I was almost sure I broke protocol there by calling him by his first name but this was no time for formalities. Aro paused, trying to jump on my train of thought.

"Who is she working for?" Aro wasn't annoyed anymore; he was just worried that we had bitten off more than we could chew.

"She says she's working for an old friend of mine." I told him, I knew exactly who she was talking about but Aro might not have caught up to me yet.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Aro sounded like he had his brow furrowed.

"She called me Bella" I mentioned, Aro lapsed into silence; I assume he had worked everything out, as I had, but I can't be sure.

"No one has called you Bella in 50 years." Aro tried to deny what his head had already discovered.

"I haven't seen a Cullen in 50 years" I had to pull Aro back to reality so he could help us, otherwise we were screwed.

"Well then you have to go see the coven, where are they situated now?" Aro knew I had kept tabs on the Cullen's over the years and he knew I would know where they are.

"Last I heard the Cullen coven and the Denali coven moved to Canada together." I recalled. I had sent out young nomads over the years to track down where they had moved to, this one if only three years old to I had to assume they were still there.

"You and Dimitri come home and bring Annalisa, we can keep her in our custody here and you two can go to Canada to find the Cullens and see what they know." Aro set his orders after a moment of heavy thought. I accepted and put my phone back in my boot. Dimitri was already in the boat with Annalisa secured as well. I jumped in and sat behind Annalisa to keep an eye on her and let Dimitri take us home.

"Do you think they did it?" Dimitri didn't turn around when he spoke nor was he very specific but I knew he wasn't talking about the bulk of the Cullen coven; he meant Edward and Alice. The insane twins were a sore topic for Dimitri because he had been looking for them on and off since they took Alec and he never found them. He had been on their trail for eight years at one point but they slipped sway halfway through the ninth year. We have plenty of theories about how they did it but we haven't been able to prove any of them. My theory is that they're working with Victoria, who has the ability to escape any situation.

"I hope they did, it'll give you another chance to sniff them out" I smiled and I caught the reflection of Dimitri's small smile in the rear view mirror. The rest of the ride was pretty quiet, not even Annalisa made a sound. When we made it back to the castle we weren't even allowed through the gates because we were still classed as out in the field, no rest for the elite. I watched the castle grow smaller as we walked away, my boys probably didn't even know I had come back to Europe. I didn't dwell on the thought too long or I would find myself running back to them without knowing it.

"We're so getting a better boat this time; we have to go to a different dock anyway, I'm sure Aro has nicer boats there" Dimitri hated the little boat we had in Antarctica and was in denial that we had to use the same kind of boat to go to Canada. I didn't want to be the one to tell him we would be getting the exact same boat again so I decided I would let the supervising vampire at the docks handle that. When we got to the docks it is fair to say Dimitri was a little more than devastated he had to drive a crappy little boat again but he handled it better than I was expecting. We made it to Canada right on schedule and went straight to the closest vampire hotspot; the docks guy.

"Rodney, you didn't tell me you got docked!" Dimitri called from a half a mile away. Rodney is an ex-guard, he wasn't elite but he could have been; he had a rare gift that Aro had been looking for.

"I've only been on the docks for five years; and none of the guard has come this way. What are you two here for?" Rodney and Dimitri shared a man-hug and a handshake before I caught up with them.

"We're in the field; you know where the Cullens are at?" Dimitri was definitely not one for subtlety I deduced. Then again he was leading this assignment so I guess he can do whatever he wants.

"Last I saw they were with the Denali's somewhere in Quebec, not sure where but I heard they were there." We thanked Rodney and made our way to a shelter for the remainder of the day. We found a vampire safe home not far from the docks that we could hole up in. These shelters had popped up all over America in the last decade and they had become more like exclusive clubs now; you had to be known by two people inside and have a password or you couldn't get in, and you had to be 100% vampire, we found that out the hard way. Lucky for us the Volturi elite guard get automatic access to all of the shelters and we don't need any passwords or vouches.

"Dimitri, Isabella, welcome" the guard at the door welcomed us, I had no clue who he was but he knew us. We went into the shelter and headed straight for the information stool. When I say we I mean Dimitri went and I followed. Dimitri motioned for me to talk.

"We're looking for the Cullen coven, we asked at the docks and they gave us a fairly general answer; do you have one that is more specific?" The guy at the stool didn't move his lips but an answer came to my ears;

"What have we done now?" I spun on my heel to find Emmett sitting amongst the vampires on the floor. He stood to face me and I gave him a once over. He looked like a complete wreck and doubted he had been with the rest of his coven recently, and then I remembered that Rosalie had left him to join with Alice and Edward. I can only imagine how Jasper is right now if this is Emmett.

"We need to talk" I hoped I hadn't just made a mistake.

Me: hope you liked it

Fang: we wrote that in commerce

Me: I wrote it thankyou very much

Fang: shut up

Me: nope, so enjoy you week guys, think of me freezing my butt of down here in Aus

Fang: thankyou

Me: bye guys!
