Chapter Eight: Creating New Ties: P1

"Life is 10% what happens to me 90% of how I react to it." - Charles Swindoll

Aro's Pov

''Well everyone who is going with Isa and Marcus has 5 minutes to pack 2 bags to take with you.''

''Marcus's Guard: Si, master.''

''Marcus: Isa, will you be ok here while I quickly go pack a bag?''

''Isa: Si, of course, my mate.''

5 minutes later

''Ciaus: Brother, will you be taking the jet for the trip?''

''Marcus: Si, I will be. I'll call you when we've all settled in at Charlie's, then I think it would be smart to give Carlisle a call to request him to come back to Fork's to help sort out what his Coven's involvement in all this is.''

''Marcus cont.: I trust Aro, that you can find something to do with Edward while we are gone clearing up loose ends and gathering up the other Cullen Coven members?''

''Aro: Quite right, brother. Safe travels and we will see you all back here in 6 months.''

Isa, Marcus and their group left to catch their flight.

Bella's Pov

"Alice: Isa, you need to call Charlie and let him know that we will be landing at Seattle airport in 30 minutes."

"Isa: Ok, is he at home Ali?"

"Alice: Yeah, he is."

Conversation between Bella - Italics and Charlie - Bold:

"Charlie: Hello Swan Residence."

''Bella: Hey, Dad it's me.''

''Charlie: Bella, are you coming home yet?''

''Bella: I'm on my way back with everyone, we'll be landing at Seattle airport in 30 minutes.''

''Charlie: Ok. Hey, did you know that the rest of the Cullen family would be coming back to Forks?''

''Isa: Wait, What? No, I didn't. But, Marcus was planning to call Carlisle to request that the Coven move back to Fork's so that he can start getting to the bottom of things. But, I guess we should've expected it to happen this way given the fact that Rosalie knows about Alice's vision so she probably told the rest of the Coven.''

''Charlie: Do you want me to do anything in that regard?''

''Marcus: Charlie, if you could refrain from mentioning anything about myself and some of the guards coming to Fork's that would be very helpful.''

''Charlie: Of course, Marcus. I'll see you all when you arrive. Bells, you may also want to give Sam and Jacob a call just to warn them about our guests. Bye, love you kiddo.''

''Isa: Of course, Dad I'll do that on my way home. Bye Dad, love you too.''

End of their call. The plane has landed, and they're now on their way to Forks.

''Isa: Okay, now I need to call Sam, as the pack needs to know that (a the Cullen's are coming back and (b that there are going to be 5 more vampires in Forks until I've finished school. So that they don't attack Marcus, Felix, Alec, Corin and Jane.''

Conversation between Bella - Italics and Sam - Bold:

''Emily: Hello, Uley Residence.''

''Bella: Hey Emily, it's Bella. Is Sam there?''

''Emily: Oh hey Bella, yeah I'll go grab him for you.''

''Bella: Thanks Emily.''

''Emily: You're welcome Bella. Ah, here's Sam. Bye, Bella.''

''Bella: Bye Emily.''

''Sam: Hello Bella. How can I help you?''

''Bella: Hey Sam. I just called to let you know that I met my mate while in Italy so I will be arriving in Forks in an hour, with my mate, his guards, Alice and Jasper. I figured it would be a good idea to set up a meeting with you and the pack so that you all can meet the vampires that will be with me until I finish school so that there won't be any mishaps. Also, to let you know that the rest of the Cullen Coven will be coming back to Forks as well, I think they may already be there but I'm not sure.''

''Sam: (grrrr) Ok, thanks for that heads up. What about Edward? What happened to him? Ah, what time do you want to set for this met and greet?''

''Bella: He's still in Volterra with the rest of the Volturi. I was thinking 7 pm tonight, that gives my group and I time to unpack and settle in. Also, just a heads up my group apart from Alice and Jasper are human drinkers but they only drink from the criminals or terminally ill.''

''Sam: Ok, thanks for the heads up. 7 pm sounds good, I'll have Jared waiting at the treaty line just get Alice or Jasper to show you the way. Is that all?''

''Bella: Yeah, that was everything. See you at 7. Bye, Sam.''

''Sam: Bye, Bella.''

Time skip to the meeting with the Pack.

''Hey, Jared can you tell the others that I have arrived? I asked''

(Jared howled to tell the others to come.)

Sam's Pov

Wolf thoughts Italics

''Sam: Hey Jared is Bella there?''

''Jared: Yeah she is. She has Alice, Jasper and 5 other vampires with her.''

''Paul: What colour are their eyes?''

''Jared: Red and Orange for the vampires and Bella is still human.''

''Jake: Of course she is. Sam would have been able to tell if she wasn't when she called him.''

''Leah: She could have disguised her voice, Jake.''

''Jake: Yeah I guess you're right.''

''Seth: So are we going to go meet them or not?''

''Sam: Yeah we are, come on guys.''

''Embry: Are we all phasing or not?''

''Sam: No. Jake, Jared and I will be phasing into our human forms the rest of you will stay in your wolf forms.''

''Everybody: Yes Sam.''

''Quil: Jake, could you tell Bells I said hi?''

''Jake: Sure, bro.''

(Jake, Jared and Sam phase.)

''Sam: Hello Bella.''

''Bella: Hey Sam. Thank you for agreeing to this meeting.''

''Sam: You're welcome Bella. So, what are the new vampire's names?''

''Bella: Well there is my mate King Marcus Volturi, then there is my twin son and daughter Jane and Alec, then there is Corin, Santiago and Felix.''

''Jared: What do you mean by son and daughter Bella?''

''Bella: Ah, my mate Marcus can see the bonds between vampires and humans, my bonds are that of a mother to Jane and Alec, that of a daughter to King Aro Volturi, that of a sister to King Ciaus Volturi and that of a mistress to the rest of the Volturi guard.''

''Jake: Why do you call Aro, Marcus and Ciaus kings?''

''Marcus: It is because that is what we are to the vampire world we are the rulers of all vampires, and we also make sure that the laws aren't broken.''

''Sam: What laws?''

Marcus: There is only one really important rule that gets regularly enforced and that is that no humans are allowed to know about the existence of vampires.''

''Jared: And what if a human knows about vampires?''

''Marcus: Then, they have to either be changed into a vampire or killed.''

(Que wolves growling.)

''Sam: QUITE!''

''Bella: Guys he doesn't mean your imprints.''

''Marcus: Isa? What are imprints?''

''Bella: Imprints are the wolves' version of soulmates just like I am yours. Why don't you use your bond sight to see what I mean?''

(Marcus uses his gift to see what Bella meant.)

''Marcus: Ah yes. I see what you mean their bonds are very strong as strong as a vampire's bonds.''

''Sam: What?''

''Bella: Sam, as I mentioned before, Marcus has a gift that allows him to see the bonds between other people and he was just studying your bonds.''

''Jared: Do the other vampires have powers?''

''Jake: Oh, Bella before I forget Quil says hi.''

''Bella: Wait, what? Has Quil phased?''

''Jake: Yeah he has. He's the dark chocolate brown one.''

''Bella: Sam may cross the border?''

''Sam: Of course Bella.''

(Bella crossed the borderline.)

''Bella: Hey Quil, while stroking Quil's fur.

''Bella: Who are the other two wolves? Wait, are they Leah and Seth?''

''Sam: Yeah, they are Leah and Seth.''

''Bella: Hey Leah and Seth. I was deeply sorry to hear about your dad.''

(Seth walked over to Bella and gently bumped her arm. Bella scratched Seth's head.)

''Marcus: Also, to answer your question, Jared. Jane has the power to cause you unimaginable pain, while Alec is the total opposite to Jane he can take away all your senses touch, sight, taste, and hearing, Santiago can control fire and Corin can teleport.''

''Sam: So, Bella mentioned how you feed, do you plan to continue that diet while you are here?''

''Marcus: No, while we are staying in Forks we will be following the Cullen's diet until we go back to Italy.''

''Sam: How long are you planning on staying in Forks?''

''Marcus: We will be staying until Isa has finished school.''

''Jake: Bella are you going to be going back to Italy with them?''

''Bella: Yes I will be, I can't not go back with them, because if I didn't Marcus and I would be in pain until we are together again. Our mate bond wouldn't be whole if we weren't together.''

''Jared: So a vampire mate bond is the same as an imprint bond?''

''Marcus: Yes.''

''Alice: Sam, I know that Bella warned you about the Cullen's but just so you know Carlisle and the rest of the Cullen's will be here by tomorrow.''

''Sam: Ok, thank you for letting me know Alice.''

''Alice: You're welcome.''

''Bella: Ok, well if that's all. I've got to get back to Charlie.''

''Sam: Yeah that's everything. Actually. One more thing where are you all going to be staying?''

''Marcus: We will be staying at Chief Swan's until we go back to Italy.''

''Jake: Wait? How?''

''Bella: In the cabins out the back of Dad's house.''

''Jake: Ah, ok.''

''Bella: Marcus my love, you've also got to call il padre and il fratello when we get back to Dad's place.''

''Marcus: Ah yes. I'll call my brothers once we've settled down for the evening. Well, we'll be off if you need to contact us you know where we are.''

(Bella went back to Marcus. Marcus and Sam shake hands)

''Bella: Goodbye guys and Leah.''

''Sam, Jared and Jake: Bye Bella.''

Rosalie's Pov

''I can't believe that we are going back to that bloody dreary town and that snivelling human, I don't care if Alice said that she didn't see Isabella come back up after she jumped off a cliff in La Push because I know that the La Push pack has a new generation of wolves and one of them is obsessed with that stupid human so I know that Isabella is still alive and well. I only wish I hadn't been so hasty to call Edward about the vision then maybe he'd be here with us instead of god knows where.''

Esme Pov

''When Rose told us that Alice had a vision of Bella jumping off the cliff in La Push she also told us that she called Edward to tell him about the vision thinking that he would go back to Forks to see if she was ok, but all ''he said was that he couldn't live without her'' and then he hung up on Rose.

Carlisle and I decided to move back to Forks. To see if Bella was alright and to see if Edward was with her as he isn't answering his phone. But little did we know that tragedy was waiting for us when we got to Forks.''

The next day.

Marcus's Pov

''Alec: Good morning madre.''

''Isa: God morning sweetheart.''

''Marcus: Good morning Isa, my love. We will be heading over to the Cullen residence in a few minutes, do you know if Charlie wants to come with us?''

''Isa: Good morning my mate. I'll just go check with him.''

''Charlie: Morning everyone. No need Bells, I'm right here. What's up?''

''Isa: Morning Dad. We will be heading up to the Cullen residence in a few minutes would you like to come as well or do you have to work today?

''Charlie: I would love to come but I have a shift at the station this morning. You'll just need to tell me about it tonight over dinner.''

''Isa: Ok, have a good day. Be safe. Love you.''

''Charlie: Always am. Love you too kiddo.''

Charlie left for work, then Isa and everyone else left for the Cullen's.

Carlisle's Pov

''Once we had arrived we started getting things set up for when Alice, Edward and Jasper got back we had managed to clear all the bedrooms, garage and both offices when we heard a car coming up the drive towards the house. We all ran outside to stand on the deck to wait for whoever was coming.''

Alec's Pov

''Carlisle, my old friend. What a pleasure to see you again,'' Master Marcus said

''Marcus? What are you doing here?'' Carlisle asked

''Oh, please don't tell me you're here about Bella F*****G Swan,'' Blondie sneered

''I'm here to be close to my mate for the next five months. Yes. Ms. Cullen, Miss Swan is the reason that we are here,'' Master Marcus said

''What? Why?'' Esme asked

''That's for Isa to tell you if she wants to,'' Felix said

''Hello Jasper,'' Carlisle said

''Hello Carlisle,'' Jasper said

''Wait who's Isa?'' Emmett asked

''It's Bella's new nickname,'' Alice said

''Then she won't mind us calling her that then,'' Emmett said

''I wouldn't count on that Emmett,'' Jasper said

''It's me. And only my closest friends and family are allowed to call me that,'' Jane said

''BELLA!'' The Cullen's yelled

''Wait, if you're here where is Edward?'' Carlisle asked

''Why don't we finish cleaning up the house, unpack then finish off this talk in the lounge,'' Esme suggested

''Okay,'' We all said
