Chapter Eight

Hermione Granger is Back

"What?" Edward gasped. "Look, we don't have time for this. Edward try to contact all the Vampire clans you can who will help, Alice try to get hold of Carlisle and Esme. Bella, Jacob, go get the pack. Jasper and I will use our knowledge of war to construct a plan. MOVE!" Hermione ordered. At once everyone ran off to do their jobs.

Jasper and Hermione sat at a table, maps spread out in front of them. "How would you know anything about war?" He snarled. Hermione glared at him. "I fought in one. Now shut up and work." She snapped. Jasper winced at her anger and turned to the books, mulling her words over in his head.

Alice skipped over to the house phone and quickly dialled Carlisle's number. After a few rings it answered. "Hello?" Alice sighed in relief at Carlisle's voice. "Carlisle, it's Alice. We need you home. It's urgent." She told him. She heard Esme whine and Carlisle shush her. "Alice, it's our Anniversary. Couldn't it wait the weekend?" Carlisle asked. Alice bit her lip. "Not really, Victoria is coming in two days with an army of newborns and witches and wizards. Victoria is coming for Bella and the witches and wizards are coming for Mione." She explained quickly. Carlisle gasped. "We'll be home in half an hour." He said before hanging up.

Edward dialled Tanya's number. "Eddie! Why are you calling?" Tanya exclaimed. "Hi Tanya, we need your coven's help. A vampire with a grudge against us is coming to attack with an army of newborns. Not only that, but she has witches and wizards backing her. They want revenge on my girlfriend, Bella's cousin from England." Edward explained rapidly. Tanya was quiet for a bit. "Okay, how can we get there quick enough though?" She asked.

Hermione walked over to Edward and indicated the phone. "Hello, Tanya. I'm Hermione Granger, Edward's girlfriend. We can get you here in about three hours. Just pack everything you need and wait. Someone will be there shortly." Hermione told the vampire. Tanya gave an affirmative and hung up.

"Excuse me; I need to make an international phone call." Hermione said, before walking outside with her mobile. Edward stared after and Emmett and Rosalie walked into the room. They hadn't been given a job, but had flitted between people seeing if they could help. "Why are these people after her, do you think?" Emmett asked. Alice danced her way over to them.

"One of them wanted revenge because she killed his son." Alice told them. Jasper sauntered over as well. "When I asked how she could know anything about war, she said she fought in one." He added. The vampires stared at Hermione's figure outside the window, talking into her phone.

Hermione located Harry's mobile number, he had finally gotten one after moving in with the Weasleys, and rang it. A groggy voice answered. "Hello, Harry Potter speaking." Hermione gasped. "Harry, it's Hermione. I'm sorry, is it late?" She asked. "No, just early. Why are you calling?" He asked. Hermione sighed. "The Order needs to come to Forks." She began.

"What? Why?" Harry asked, shocked. "The Deatheaters are here with Bellatrix. You see, before I came here, my cousin made friends with Vampires and began to date a wolf shape shifter. She was watching the vamps play baseball when three nomads turned up. The leader and tracker caught scent of Bella and tried to hunt her. He tricked her to a dance studio. He tried to kill her, but Edward Cullen, one of the vampires, got there first. He and his coven killed the vampire."

"Now the vampire's mate is out for revenge and is going to kill Bella. But the problem is, she's teamed up with the Deatheaters, lead by Bellatrix. She also has an army of newborns. They're arriving in two days. The Deatheaters want me dead." Hermione concluded. Harry swore and there was lots of rustling. "I'll get portkeys and the Order. We'll be there in two hours. Where are we going?" Harry asked. "The Cullen Residence. Oh, forgot to say, I'm dating Edward." Hermione said before she hung up.

Hermione walked back into the house and sat down. "Help will be here in two hours." She told them, looking up at the vampires. "Who are you?" Jasper asked, sitting back in his place like before. "I'll explain everything when everyone is here, well Carlisle, Bella, Esme, Jacob and the pack." Hermione said, not looking at them but out the window.

Half an hour later, Carlisle walked into the room with Esme and the pack and Bella came through the door. They all sat around Hermione, waiting for her to tell her story.

"Okay, it's time I told you the truth. It's not how I planned telling anyone, but it is necessary. You need to know why Bellatrix is coming after me. You see, I'm a witch." Hermione began. Everyone stared at her in shock.
