Chapter 9

(Quick note. I was ask by a reviewer why I didn't just have Aro read the Prisoners hand. Good Question. For one that wouldn't make the story quite as much fun. Lol. And 2 Aro may grant the Joker favors but he's still human and I can't see him coming all the way from Italy to be an errand boy for any Human. He'd send his guard first. Even in the Twilight books the Brothers never really left Italy and it would have to be a special case for them to leave there city, like in Breaking Dawn. So that's why I chose the Cullen's instead. Lol there is a method to my madness. Thanks for reading.)

Bella had a bad feeling about tonight. Joker had decided he and a few of his men were going to stake out the drop location to see if they see Boomerang or Batman. Bella and Harley begged to be allowed to go, to help watch his back but he refused.

He wanted them to stay behind and stay safe. Flag, Katana and Croc were being made to stay behind as well to keep Bella, Harley, June and Zoe safe just in case.

The Vampires were all still there. Joker wanted the Cullen's to stay until this is over so there's no chance they can leave and join Batman and the Volturi guards agreed to stay and keep an eye on them. Joker was real suspension when it came to the Cullen's. He didn't trust them at all.

"Baby, I don't like this not one bit." Bella told him with a pout on her lips as Joker dressed and strapped his guns to his sides. He chuckled when Harley nodded and assumed the same pouty face.

"I know princess. But what I say goes baby and I want you and Harley here. It's only surveillance. I'll see you too later." He said before kissing them both and leaving with Frost behind him. Bella and Harley shared a look. They didn't like this at all.

"Your man leave already?" Jasper ask Bella later when they all found their way into their apartment to see if there was any news yet. Nodding she stood by the window looking out, waiting for him to return.

"Yeah." She said with a sigh and Jasper shared a look with his two lovers. They didn't like this quiet Bella. They preferred the new crazy badass Bella even if the rest of their family didn't.

"I'm sure everything will be fine." Rosalie said as she came and stood next to Bella. Alice, Edward, Carlisle and Esme were sitting across the room with the Volturi staying silent.

June and Zoe was in the guest apartment with Katana resting. Harley, Flag and Croc were sitting on the couch talking but Bella felt to antsy to sit. She wouldn't relax until Joker returned to them.

"Tell me something?" Bella ask Rose who nodded.

"Back in Forks. Why did you hate me so much?" Bella ask and Rose sighed.

"I never hated you per say. I was jealous of you. Of what you were willing to give up for Edward." She said and Bella frowned.

"When I was human all I ever wanted was to be married to a great man and have tons of kids. I always wanted to be a mother. I got engaged to a very influential man for the times and we agreed to marry right away. My family was well of and my father loved the idea of me marrying Royce King. I felt proud to walk on his arm. Through I didn't realize how many other women he was making feel that way. The night before my wedding I went to visit my best friend to see her new baby. She married a man well below her status but they were so in love and their son was so cute. I wanted what they had and I thought I was about to get it. On the way home that night I ran into Royce and his drunken friends. They assaulted me in the worst way and left me for dead. Carlisle found me and turned me hoping I'd be a mate for Edward. When I woke up I was pissed. I hated what I was, hated Carlisle and Edward and I couldn't stand each other. Then years later I found Emmett being mauled by a bear and he reminded me of the man my friend married and he called me his angel so I carried him all the way to Carlisle and demanded he turn him for me. Now we have Jasper and things are better but I'll still never have kids and when you came along and was willing to give that up I was jealous and I treated you like shit. I am sorry for that. And I'm glad you're happy." Rose told her and Bella stared at her for a while. She felt bad for the blonde Vampire but at least now she knew why she had seemed to hate Bella so much.

"I am happy, I wouldn't change my life for anything. I'm sorry that happened to you but I'm glad you told me so now I know." Bella said and Rose nodded with a small smile.

Alice huffed in annoyance and Bella shot her a glare. Edward and Alice shared a look and a smile that Bella didn't like but she didn't have time to really care about them anymore. Those 2 she didn't think she'd ever be able to forgive.

As the hours went by Bella and Harley both started pacing. This should not have taken so long and they were getting even more worried than they already were. Jasper tried to calm them down but Bella slammed her shield around them and flipped him off. She wasn't in the mood for his emotional manipulation right now. He chuckled but nodded and didn't try again.

Just when they were about to pull their hair out Frost and a few other men came banging through the door, bleeding and panting as they collapsed. Flag and Kroc caught Frost and laid him on the floor.

"Frost. What happened?" Harley ask as she and Bella ran to him. Carlisle came over and started patching him up.

"We got ambushed. They took Mr. J. I was fighting a group of men when he saw Boomerang and chased after him. He was shot with a tranquilizer dart and tossed in the back of a black van, I couldn't get to me and I barely made it out to tell you." Frost said and Bella and Harley gasp in shock.

"Son of a bitch." Bella hissed as she stood and backed away. She heard a chuckle and turned her head to see Alice was smiling and Bella snapped. She used her shield and slammed Alice into the wall, shocking the hell out of her.

Alice cried out in pain as Bella stalked towards her. Edward tried to stop Bella, but Bella tossed him across the room too.

"Stay the fuck down asshole." She pointed at him as she walked up and went almost nose to nose with Alice. Bella was pissed.

"You saw it didn't you. That's why you and Eddie was smiling earlier. You saw them take Joker and you smiled and you didn't warn us so we could help." Bella snarled and she heard Harley hissed in anger.

"Yes I saw. Good reddens. He's fucked up our lives and turned you into a freak." Alice said and Bella growled and turn on her full shocking power and Alice screamed in pain.

"Big fucking mistake bitch." Bella hissed. She held Alice under her shock for a long time before she dropped the small pixie bitch and waved the Volturi over.

"Knock this bitch out. I don't want to hear or see her again." She said and Alec nodded. Alice looked at him in fear before begging Jasper to help her but he just shook his head and turned away as Alec's gift hit her and she was knocked out. No longer able to see, hear or move.

"As for the three of you. Say anything to me and your next. I'm not fucking playing with you." Bella said to Edward, Carlisle and Esme. They nodded in fear and glanced at Alice sadly knowing they couldn't help her.

"What's the plan?" Flag ask and Harley and Bella shared a look.

"Were going to get him back and anyone that gets in the way is dead." Harley replied and Bella nodded as they went to their room to change.

They were going to get there man and kill anyone that stood in their way. They fucked up by taking the Joker from his Queens.
