A/N I need to say thanks to my beta twilightaddict71484 for her awesome skills, and my pre-readers OoJasper'sAngeloO, and sinfulroad69. Without them, this story wouldn't be as good. Hope you enjoy, again, you might need tissue.

I do not own Twilight or any of the characters.

Carlisle's POV

I sat and held Esme as she sobbed. The rest of the males were doing the same to their mates. Everyone of us had come to love the one whom we had thought had come to destroy our family. In a way she had done just that.

She had become a light in our family. We all watched as she was introduced to things that even we took for granted, but she looked on in curious wonder. We also knew that there was no way that my son, our son, and brother, would want to go on without his mate. We would lose him as well.

We could hear Jasper was now sobbing, begging his beloved to come back to him, while still trying to get her heart to beat. The thing he doesn't understand, is that a human that doesn't want to live, can't be brought back. Something happens to their spirit.

I should know. While I have been successful in bringing humans back from death, even ones that have tried to take their own lives. They usually ended up dead anyway at a later time, unless the reason behind their desire changed. Hers had not, and while we were all grieving for losing Bella, we were all also so fucking angry with Jasper.

Yet, none of us had the heart right now to call him out on what he had done. I myself now had to call Renee and tell her. I couldn't even imagine what she would go through especially since she is carrying another child. As a doctor, and the head of this family it was my job to be the bearer of bad news.

I excused myself so I could at least go into another room. Even so, it took me several minutes to realize that maybe I should speak with Felix first. With that plan, I picked up the phone and dialed.

Major's POV

I don't know how long I've been working on our mate but I wasn't going to fuckin' stop. I had to keep goin', because we can't lose her. The only difference now is that we are sendin' her our love for her. I'm hopin' that maybe if we send her what we feel for her that she will feel it and fight to stay with us.

I did have another option and I was about to do it. I could bite her, therefore turning her. I knew that Jasper would argue with me and so would the rest of the family, but I'm fuckin' desperate here. I just can't lose her, and if I can inject enough venom into her and keep her heart beating through CPR, then she'll still be with us.

I never stopped or slowed down, but I did turn her head so that her neck was now exposed to me. I knew that I could be killed by Aro for doing this, but I didn't fuckin' care right now. I needed her to stay with me, with us.

I hadn't been paying any attention to anything other than our mate and it was a minute or two before I even realized that Carlisle had run into the room. He was yellin something, and I was about to bite her.

Next thing I know, I'm knocked away from her by Emmett, and Peter. Carlisle is yelling at Edward to continue the CPR, while doing something to her. My instincts took over and I tried to fight both Emmett and Peter off of me.

It took Peter a couple of minutes to get through to me that Carlisle was trying to save her. When I was finally able to understand that he was trying to explain that there was a way to save her without biting her, I forced myself to calm down, and listen.

Peter told me that Carlisle had called Felix to tell him about Bella, and Renee had been there and overheard what was going on. Apparently, this wasn't the first time she had "died". Again, the Volturi were responsible for conducting experiments by stopping her heart, and seeing if she could be brought back to life.

I looked to see Carlisle pouring more blood down her throat. He poured at least four more bags of blood before stopping. Edward continued to do the CPR and I found myself growling at him for touching our mate in that manner.

I quickly went over and took over for him. Carlisle made everyone else leave, while he stayed to explain to me that the CPR would only keep her body from becoming cold, and her organs from cell death, and failure. It wouldn't bring her back.

He explained that it would take several more bags of blood, but eventually with the blood, her vampire part would kick in and her heart would start to beat again on its own. She would be given a bag of blood every half hour until her heart started up again.

I asked Carlisle where Athena was, and he told me that since Emmett, Peter and Edward were needed in here that Peter had removed her leg and an arm to keep her from running. Then Char, Esme, and Alice had taken her deep into the woods. Apparently, there was a plan, and that meant keeping Athena away from whatever was going on here.

I knew we needed to find out what the bitch did to not only me, but the rest of the family as well. She had to have done something, because when I came to my senses, I felt sick at what was going on. I ended up throwing Athena away from me, or should I say Jasper did, and then grabbed some clothes and ran.

I didn't even pay attention to see if Bella was anywhere around. I just felt the shame of what I had been doing and just needed to get away. To be honest, I couldn't face Bella right now, and since I knew she was waiting for me to join her to go riding, I ran the other way.

I never even knew she had come upstairs, until Emmett told me everything Bella had said. Knowing that she had seen what I had done made it feel like my heart was being ripped out. I can't even imagine what she feels like, and yet I can. She wanted to stop the pain, and so she did what she thought would do the trick.

I don't know if either of us can come back from this, but I need to at least try for her sake. I know that Athena did something, she had to have, because I would have never betrayed my mate in that manner, no matter how badly I needed release.

I continued to push her heart to pump the little bit of blood she still had left in her body. The wounds were still there, but I did notice that they weren't as deep as they had been. In the meantime, I'm going to keep sending her all of our love.

Carlisle would come in every thirty minutes and give her another bag of blood. I just kept up pumping her heart, and sending her our love. It took another two hours, after Carlisle started giving her blood before there was any change at all.

Her wounds were starting to heal at a faster rate. The blood pumping through her body had kept it warm, but it still wasn't at the level it normally was. I could feel that her body was starting to get warmer, and another half an hour, I heard her heart pump on its own. The relief I felt was short lived though as I realized that she would wake up thinking I had betrayed her in the worst way, and she would be right.

Carlisle told me I should probably leave the room at least until he could explain to Bella that there had been a reason I had done what I did. He was going to try to get Bella to at least listen to the explanation.

He also told me that she was going to be very upset that she was brought back. While normally, he would have asked that I be there to try to keep her calm, knowing I was the reason she had done this made it more reasonable to let him try to explain to her that Athena had told him what it was exactly that she had done. Apparently, Athena hadn't expected Bella to try to kill herself.

I told Carlisle that I needed to get away for a few minutes, otherwise I was going to end up killing Athena before she had a chance to be taken to the airport. Because she had been under orders from Aro, none of us would be allowed to kill her. This was straight from Aro himself. We couldn't even rip her apart.

Carlisle also told me that Aro mentioned that Athena could tell the truth about what she was supposed to do and why. Something was telling me that it had something to do with Demetri. That only caused the rage I was feeling to grow.

Even with my own emotions I was having problems. I was beginning to feel like a roller coaster, because one minute I'm wanting to fucking rip something apart, and the next I'm full of guilt, and shame. I still can't seem to get past the fact that I allowed that female to touch what belonged to my wife, and mate.

This was the first time ever that I could feel Jasper isn't a separate personality, no, he's more a part of me than he has ever been. But his guilt, and shame would swallow him whole, and I cannot allow that to happen. Hopefully, our mate can get past all of the bullshit, and see that we had no choice in the matter.

I wonder what our mate will think when she finds out that it was her shield that stopped Athena's gift. Yeah, I figured it out. I didn't understand why the gift just suddenly stopped working, but I'm so fucking grateful that it did. It was like a switch was pulled, and I came out of whatever the fuck I was under.

It was the only thing that made any sense. I'm going to assume that Bella came in, saw us, and threw her shield up so I wouldn't feel her emotions. Her throwing her shield up, could have broken the hold, or whatever it was that Athena had over me.

After asking Carlisle to explain where I was, and what I was doing to Bella, I left. I knew it was going to take some major damage to help with the rage I was feeling. Especially, since I won't be allowed to touch the fucking bitch that did this to us.

Before he allowed me to leave he told me of the plan. The more he told me the more I understood that in order for it to work, Athena would have to be allowed to go back to Aro in one piece. She could show Aro what she knows, and therefore, make it safer for everyone.

Personally, I could see no flaw in the plan. Apparently, it was the plan that Felix, and Renee had thought of, with Carlisle adding some. Peter said that it should work. Alice couldn't really see enough to be sure, as she couldn't see Bella, or Renee at all. All that would be needed was to show Athena, Bella's body.

Now, I was going to go, and vent some of my rage, and then be back hopefully in time for Bella to wake up. While I agreed with Carlisle that it might be best if she didn't see me at first, I was the Major, and I didn't fuckin' run from anyone. I would speak to our mate, before listenin' to anything anyone else had to say.

Carlisle assured me that her heart was now beating strong and steady. Her wounds were healed, and she would be waking up soon. With that bit of knowledge, I left. I did tell Peter that I would be back as soon as I got rid of some of this fuckin' rage. As it was, it was takin' every ounce of strength to not just start rippin' shit up!

I didn't want to go far, I needed to be close to our mate. Even if she didn't want to be around me, we still need her. I wanted to tell her what I understood to be happenin', and what was goin' on with me when she saw us with Athena. She would listen to me, even if I had to use our gift. I needed her to know everything from our point of view before we listened to anything else.

I can understand her side perfectly. If it had been the other way around, I would want to kill first, and then I after that I had no clue as to what I would do to her; that's probably because she would never do something like that. So why should I expect her to do anything else but hate me? If only I could make sense of what happened. The only person that could do that was the one that caused it.

The knowledge that I could lose her, made the rage come back full force, and not being able to kill the bitch that did this makes it even worse. Of course she's not the only one at fault, I was the one allowing her to do whatever the fuck she wanted to me.

I really need to get some of this fuckin' rage worked out of me. I would need to be calm when we talked to our mate. I will never talk to her while angry. She deserves to be talked to with respect, and tenderness. I especially, don't want to talk to her right now with rage in my voice. She might think its directed at her. With that last thought, I let the monster inside of me, the one I kept locked up, out.

Peter's POV

I hated to see my brother is so much pain. But he wasn't the only one. Bella had her heart ripped out and shredded to the point where she wanted to just stop the pain by not livin' anymore. I understood where both of them were comin' from. I just couldn't understand why in the fuck Jasper would let some slut paw all over him.

The only thing I knew for a fact is that there is no fuckin' way Jasper would have ever even looked at anyone else, let alone let another female touch him. No matter how bad it was for him to not claim his mate, he wouldn't have done it. That's just not who he is. He is a man of honor, and he would rather die than let someone else touch what belongs to his mate.

Bella woke up right after he left the house. To say she wasn't happy about being brought back would be an understatement. She was screaming at anyone who tried to approach her. Carlisle tried to explain that Athena was going to explain everything, but she just kept screaming at him.

Rose, and Esme, sent everyone out so they could try to get her calmed down enough so that she would listen. I'm glad that Carlisle was smart enough to send Jasper out. If he had heard the things Bella was sayin' it would have hurt him a lot worse than what he already was.

She mostly just kept promising to be successful in killin' herself next time. She also yelled that she hated Carlisle for bringin' her back. This went on for several minutes, and finally Esme was able to get her to listen. She didn't want to but somehow she got her to realize that she needed to hear what actually went on before doing anything else.

She finally calmed down, and Esme was able to help her also understand that there was more to what went on than any of them knew. I have no fuckin' clue what she actually told Bella, but she was finally willin' to listen before doin' anything else rash.

Esme called for all of the men to come back in. I was given the honor of goin' to find Jasper. Since Athena was already on her way back to Aro, she was out of danger. It took me only a short time to find him, I just followed the noise of trees bein' uprooted, and thrown.

As soon as he saw me he charged at me. I knew that for him to really get the rage out he needed to have an ol' fashioned fight. I wasn't afraid of him, just what might happen if I didn't give him the opportunity to kick someone's ass, even if it was my own. I have been the one to get their assed kicked on more than one occasion.

He used to get so pissed off at fuckin' Maria. He couldn't kick her ass because she was in charge. So, I would take him out somewhere, and we would go a few rounds. I almost always lost limbs, but it was fuckin' worth it to see him come back to himself. If I lost a limb or two this time, it would be worth it even more.

I'm not sure how long we fought, but I do know that it was at least an hour. I ended up losing a leg, an arm, and my right foot. He lost a hand, period. I don't how he does it, but no matter what I do, he always ends up kickin' my ass.

When he had finally stopped, I knew that he was ready to go back. We both looked like shit, clothes torn, dirty, and missin' some parts, like a sleeve. He was still pissed but at least now he could control it. I asked him if he was ready?

I told him about Bella wakin' up but didn't tell him what she had done, or said to anyone. I did tell him that Esme had gotten her to agree to at least listen to the explanation that Athena had told Carlisle. He then told me that he would be talkin' to his mate first, and try to explain things from his side, before listenin' to anyone else. He said that he was goin' to fight to get her to understand that even though he didn't quiet understand exactly what had happened to him, that he needed for Bella to hear from him what he was thinkin', and feelin' when it was happenin'.

As soon as we got back to the house, we both told everyone that we needed a shower and change into some clean clothes. Bella was standin' with everyone, she still had a look of pain on her face but now it was mixed with anger. I expected the Major to run upstairs to shower and change, but the fucker had other ideas.

He walked straight up to his mate. He looked her in the eyes for a few seconds and then grabbed her around the waist, pulled her close to him and gave her a kiss. She tried to wiggle out of his grasp, but as the kiss heated up, she calmed down.

When he finally let her go, he told her, "When I am done, we will be talkin' before we listen to anyone else. I refuse to listen until I have told you my side, and what was goin' on in my head, and heart. I love you, my mate. I would never have ever allowed another female's touch. We will find out together, what the truth is. But, you will not be destroying yourself, and you will listen to us."

With that he turned and walked away. . .

A/N Please let me know what you think. As you can see, the Major took charge, what do you think Bella's reaction is going to be to the Major kissing her? A huge thanks to everyone who reviewed. I wish I had time to reply but if I did reply to all of them, I wouldn't have time to write. Thanks to all who favored and added this story to their alerts. Love you guys.
