You all are awesome :) thanks so much for the reviews! I have noticed that many of my initial reviewers have disappeared-?—but on the bright side, I'm seeing a bunch of new names. I'd love to have you all review, but alas, I can't control everything and as much as I would like to know what each and every reader is thinking, I know it's impossible. But either way, thank you all! You are making my first experience as a writer here amazing and now I have no choice but to continue writing :) (Oh yes, I have so many more stories planned!) Also, there have been several reviewers who think they're 'dying' it is my belief they've contracted 'cliffhanger depression-itis'…my condolences if you really are, but otherwise, BREATHE! Lol, I really do try to update as soon as I can, and I apologize if it isn't soon enough but please just have patience with me. I only live to serve haha. Ok anyway, on with the next chapter! Read, review, and enjoy!

I do not own any of Stephanie Meyer's 'oh my God!' work, solely the plot and some new characters in this story.

************************Nessie************************************

I blinked and—

Where am I?

The air blew through my hair at an incredible rate, I could smell blood—Oliver's blood—and someone was yelling…

"So help me, Alec, speed up! I don't care if you are my brother, I'll personally kill you if we don't make it out of here!"

Oh…right…Jane…

Everything came back to me instantly, and I had to stifle a breath to avoid crying out loud. The vampire, Jeanine, was blocking the exit with her body; I noticed the smashed up door sticking out the opposite cabin door in disarray.

What the…

And then I smelled her.

The scent I'd first come to recognize since my womb days, a scent I'd pick out anywhere, rival to even Jake's…mom!

I couldn't see past Jeanine's figure, but I knew Alec and Jane hadn't noticed my waking …what to do, what to do…I could only guess that mom had shielded the area and hence broken Alec's entrancement over me, which meant she must be close…I didn't wait long to find out.

Something hit us from underneath, and suddenly the helicopter swerved dangerously to the side so that Jeanine almost fell out. Oliver's unconscious body slid and I hastily grabbed him around the middle to keep him from falling. The movement was enough so that I finally got Jane's attention. Her eyes widened then narrowed. In a flash she was by my side, Oliver ripped out of my hands and into her own.

"Whatever you're thinking," she threatened, "stop. I will slit his throat in an instant, got it?"

I narrowed my own eyes but nodded grimly, the tears in my eyes angry. Then—

"Nessie!"

I turned towards the cry, Jeanine thrown back temporarily from the other vampires lunge into the chopper.

"Mommy!" I yelled, running forward as she balanced to keep from falling back out. Before either of us could take a step, however, Jeanine was on her, pushing her out with amazing speed. The two tumbled out and the helicopter swerved once more. I gaped in horror.

Mom was still somewhat of a newborn, how was it possible—

I grit my teeth and surged forward, but not before a cold hand grabbed me, Jane's threat still boiling in the air, Oliver's fate in her cold, dead, hands.

"Alec!" she hissed, "Get Demetri on the phone and tell him to head over towards Vancouver! Don't accept no for an answer! We need every second we can get!"

"But what about Jeanine—"

Her cruel, piercing laugh cut him off. "Didn't you know? Jeanine's more of a newborn than that wretched girl, she'll be fine."

WHAT?

I suddenly whirled my head towards Jane, my horror and worry for my mother written across every surface of my face. She smiled maliciously at me.

"Oh yes, you had no idea, did you?" she said slowly. "Jeanine is ten times worth your precious mother. You'll be lucky if she doesn't kill her—"

"MOM!" I screamed, ignoring the rest of Jane's taunting words. It couldn't be true, could it? Jane blocked me from going too far towards the open cabin door, shoving Oliver even closer to herself meaningfully.

It was all I could do but watch as the two vampires, my mother and Jeanine, began a fight I knew I would never forget.

**********************Bella***************************************

"Nessie!"

Her head whipped around as I threw aside the dark haired vampire in my way. Mommy!" she cried. I felt an immense wave of relief that she was ok, safe in the sense of being completely intact. It didn't last long, however; before I could take a step towards her I felt my body being lifted up completely and thrown out, my arms barely grabbing onto a corner of the landing skids.

The dark haired, dark skinned vampire landed gracefully, balancing like a cat not five feet away from me. Her appearance startled me, she looked so much like—

"Let's dance, shall we?" she glowered. Before I could respond she was swiping at my flailing body. I only barely managed to swing around and grab hold of the other skid. I wasn't as great a fighter as Edward or Jasper, but I had one thing I knew this girl didn't.

Newborn enhancements.

With lightning speed I lunged at her, my mouth bared to kill, the venom flowing fluently, my eyes blazing, instincts taking over, but—

She moved…almost unnoticeably and very slightly to the right so that instead my fingers were forced to once again grab onto the edge and right myself up again.

How did she—

This time she lunged at me, landing a mind-blowing swipe into my shoulder. The ear splitting noise of ripped metal echoed through my ears as what used to be my shoulder suddenly fell away, a gaping hole grotesquely taking its place. I looked at her in horror.

"You're not the only one with tricks," she sneered.

My eyes narrowed and I charged at her.

I felt the plane shudder dangerously as I pinned her upward against the bottom of the helicopter, my feet perfectly balanced on the left landing skid. With a quick thrust I kneed her abdomen and managed twist her arms so that we were eye to eye. Her red eyes burned as our eyes met for a split second.

I sunk my teeth into her neck—

And she howled in pain, a scream that would haunt any child within a hundred mile radius, her teeth spitting out venom angrily. I bit down harder, prepared to tear her head straight off—

"AAAARRGGHHH!" she suddenly growled aloud, her right arm coming free of its own accord. With even quicker speed, she wrapped herself around me, using her legs to pin me down. I kept my teeth locked into her, trying but failing to cause any more pain than what I was already inflicting. It took everything I had to keep from falling off the skid completely, to keep my hold on her, when all of a sudden—

She sank her own teeth into my already injured shoulder, and with another piercing sound—

"OOHH!" I felt myself release her, stumbling backwards against the very edge of the landing skid, my eyes wide and unbelieving, my body shaking uncontrollably, the realization of defeat inevitable, my arm completely ripped off.

It was in this second of puzzlement, of shock, of indescribable physical pain, that she wasted no time and kicked me off, my fingers too late to grab on again.

"MOMMY! NOOOOO!"

I only barely saw her white figure, her heart wrenching broken brown eyes, disheveled bronze hair shadowing her small face, reaching out towards my one armed body as it fell, down, down, down, hundreds of feet away. I closed my eyes as it hit me, the unshed tears that would never come, crying painstakingly inside me.

Nessie…

*******************Alec*******************************

"That damn stubborn idiot!" I scoffed. "I can't believe it took him that long to finally agree!"

Jane was sitting calmly now beside me, an exultant smile on her face. "There, there, now. We'll deal with him later. We need the ride, after all. This helicopter is only going to last about four hundred miles or so."

"So, Vancouver then?" I asked her. She glanced back at Jeanine, who nodded absentmindedly.

"Yes, Vancouver is close enough. Keep us in the air for about two hours till we arrive. The Cessna should be able to make it over in about eight hours, even if they need to refuel. Just circle around the water for a bit, the clouds are thick enough, in case any of them decided to swim after."

I laughed. "I hardly doubt they'd catch up to us now. We're already too far ahead, and too fast might I add."

She joined in my laughter, turning an exasperated glance backwards, "Will you be quiet already? Goodness, you're still alive, aren't you!"

I glanced towards the sobbing girl. We'd only been in the clear for about thirty minutes so far and Renesmee hadn't once stopped. I'd placed her under my spell as soon as Jeanine was back aboard but within ten minutes had released her. She was too miserable to try escaping at this point, even with her dear little imprint resting on her lap.

I frowned. She was a pretty girl, even for a vampire, it almost seemed a shame she have to go through so much pain for the sake of purging the enemy. She looked up suddenly, catching my eye for the slightest second.

Utter and complete loathe.

I shrugged. Almost a shame, after all. I turned towards Jane.

"We did it, sister."

She smiled in return. "Yes, we did."

*****************************Jake**************************************

All I could think of was murdering those evil little bloodsuckers. Tearing them apart for them to suffer slowly, burning alive as much as their dead heartless bodies could. The racing thoughts of my brothers only made it worse.

Hurry, Jake! They're getting away!

We can't reach them, it's too far!

They're already over the water, what do we do!

Jake! Where are you, bro?

And I hated myself more with each thought. Even before I knew exactly what was going on I saw it, the helicopter, now maybe two miles away, horizontally. Vertically, however…too far up.

I could've exploded. I was finally here, today was supposed to be a day I'd never forget, the day I finally proclaimed my love, in person, to the only girl in the world—

And now this!

I followed it, running wildly beneath it. I could see Edward running ahead of me, crazed beyond comprehension, yet I understood completely. My own mind seethed with all the possible ways of killing the enemy, my heart aching uncontrollably with the implications I knew were inevitable at this point.

Nessie, love, please be ok…

I could see it better now, my perfect vision finally realizing a new factor.

Bella was up there too.

It had to be her, none of the other Cullens, even with their vampiric abilities, could jump up that high…Bella must've gotten up there earlier, when it was lower…I caught a spot of brown hair…Yeah, definitely Bella, but…

…she was losing.

Another body caught my attention, too far away to identify properly; but I automatically knew it was her, her pale face only barely visible behind the small vampire blocking her way, a dark skinned body—Oliver?—dangling lifelessly in the crook of her arm. Nessie didn't even seem to notice the haggard way in which Jane dragged her friend, her eyes were only for her mother.

Nessie! I wanted to cry out. I howled in distress, my paws hitting the ground harder as I caught up with Edward. I could only imagine what must be going on in his mind. The two most important people in his life, their lives precariously at stake…

And then something fell.

I almost lost it when Nessie's face was no longer visible, my entire body convulsing with the slightest notion that Nessie had—

Something else fell…wait, that couldn't be—

"MOMMY! NOOOO!"

"BELLA!"

The former, no matter how faint with such a distance, brought forth a secondary wave of relief. Nessie was ok. But—

Bella had fallen, hundreds of feet, a thousand even. I couldn't really tell how high up they were, but from my lack of distinguishing certain details, even with my wolf senses…

Somehow I knew Bella was ok, hurt perhaps, but…vampires couldn't die from a thousand foot fall, could they?

Edward surged forward, his fleeting figure darting towards the fallen form of his wife. It was then that I realized something else.

They had gotten away…Bella had been the last hope…and I…

My aching howl shuddered through the air as I continued after the receding aircraft. They weren't going to get away, not on my time!

The trees began to thin as I pounded the earth with every ounce of energy that I had, I could smell the salty breeze of the ocean. I hadn't even realized just how far the helicopter really was…it was already over the ocean…I sailed into the water, cutting through the water at an intense speed. I knew water wasn't really our element, but I had to try!

The helicopter grew smaller as it flew ahead of me, rising steadily. My heart pounded painfully in my chest, my ears flattening defensively towards the water, the depths deeper than I had ever strayed. I could hear my brothers—

Jake! Come back!

You can't last in the water, we're not fast enough there!

Jacob! Listen to me, we'll find her. Don't you go and drown yourself!

They're too far ahead!

But I didn't listen to any of it. I didn't care. She was my imprint, my everything, how could no one understand that, damnit!

The clouds began to thicken, the chopper hardly visible anymore. I could feel my muscles tightening, my heart racing faster than it ever had. Something in my chest didn't feel right, but I ignored it, fighting against every survival instinct and swimming as best as I could towards the now disappearing vehicle.

Jake, you're going to black out man—

Shut up! I don't care! Leave me the hell alone! I thought back angrily.

It began to rain, the clouds a dull gray and…the helicopter was nowhere to be seen. I began to panic, flailing hopelessly against the current. I'm strong, I can make it! I'm a freaking werewolf for crying out loud!

A sort of buzzing sound began to fill my ears, and I hadn't ever realized the water that went in through my nose, I was too distracted, too focused on the love of my life being whisked away to unimaginable danger.

I'll rescue you, Nessie, don't worry!

My limbs, my never-tiring limbs, began to suddenly weigh me down. I could no longer see the speck of a helicopter that I so hopelessly pursued, the rotors a tiny noise, even with my sensitive hearing.

I won't stop, I promise!

The clouds seemed to darken suddenly, and for some reason everything began to get blurry. I couldn't comprehend it; in my wolf form I could see everything, even in the dark…

Just hang on for me, Ness…

Her beautiful face swam before my eyes, her kind brown eyes, that endearing blush on her cheeks, gorgeous smile…

I love you Nessie, and I will save you…

Her last words to me 'I love you too, Jake, bye'…I wasn't ready to say good-bye, I would stop at nothing to get her back!…Her face was the last thing I remember.

I promise…

And then everything went black.

Somewhat long Author's Note…

(Sobbing) So no one made it :( and now Bella is injured (no, she isn't dead, vampires don't die from a thousand foot fall), Tom and Oliver are still both barely alive, and most upsetting, Jake is blacked out! Now, you might ask 'How is it that Jacob could just black out like? He's almighty!'…Yes, but this is my defense: He's totally stressed out (duh?), not thinking straight (notice he inhaled water?), his heart is racing ridiculously fast (even for a werewolf), and on top of that for the first time in his life as a wolf he actually got tired due to over-straining himself. Bottom line: Nessie being gone is making him lose any sense, and ultimately, breathing water doesn't do well with staying conscious. So what happens now?

A few facts before I go on:

Helicopters are limited (height) to about 15000ft (so for all we know Jane and Alec could've been even higher up) and travel about 350mph. Generally, a helicopter can only travel between 200-400miles before needed to refuel, sometime a bit more, so even if we say this particular helicopter can travel, say 500miles at an airspeed of 250mph, that would be a total travel time of about two hours (remember Jane said to keep it in the air for about two hours).

The distance between Vancouver, Canada and Volterra, Italy is about 5419 miles. I'm assuming the Volturri have only the best of the best so when I mentioned the 'Cessna' I was referring to the fastest private jet available (at least from my research; if you know of anything faster, let me know). The Cessna Citation X can travel at 700mph, so if you do the math (yay! Bet you never thought you'd be doing math on fanfiction huh?), 5419/700 is about 7.75 hours. If we calculate any refueling stops Demetri might have to make (remember the phone call to Demetri?) we can just round it up to about 8 hours considering how fast we all know vampires can do things. So, any questions on this little math lesson?

Anyway, please review! I was thoroughly satisfied with the reviews I received the last chapter and expect nothing less lol. Please you all, I wasn't going to post this chapter up till tomorrow but I worked on it instead of sleeping before work today so I deserve a little credit, right? Thanks everyone, don't forget to go vote also on my profile page! Next chapter will be up hopefully by Wednesday. Thanks.
