End of Chapter 45
***Edward's POV***

I watched as a group of guards came from each end of the hall, all of them excited and ready to kill या subdue the members of our family. I watched with Alice as the fight ensued, I knew somehow that there were orders from someone that certain members were to be saved...that there were bigger plans for some of us, while the others were to be destroyed. We watched while they came into the room and the fight ensued, the fight worse then anything we had seen before. I know that there was और to be seen but I broke my concentration...I knew that in the vision the Volturi were going to get to Bella, and that was one thing I couldn't handle watching.

I looked over at Tallulah, sure that what Alice had seen was almost exactly what Tallulah had seen. The look in her eyes was suddenly very understanding and yet full of fear and anticipation.

"You understand now, do आप believe me?" She asked as she looked deep into my eyes.

"Yes." I said, the visions of my family being attacked still fresh in my mind. "But..what can we do? What have आप seen?"

"What I have seen is two paths that are laid before all of us...including me. The easier of the two would be what आप and your sister just saw, but judging द्वारा your response to what आप saw I'm guessing that is not what आप want. The other option is one that will be a million times harder, it will test everything आप are as a family...but we have to decide now...before it's too late.

Chapter 46
***Emmett's POV***

Like always I stood there looking like an idiot, feeling like I was left out of some big story. Rosalie looked scared, Jasper looked pissed, Alice and Edward were staring at each other in shock, Esme was trying to console the new girl, Carlisle was looking torn and I was left feeling lost, and confused. I felt like everyone else understood what was going on, everyone but me.

"What is she talking about?" I asked as I turned and looked at the tiny vampire who was और या less hiding behind Esme.

"Emmett stop." Rosalie कहा as she pushed on my arm. "She's already scared, she doesn't need आप frightening her more."

"No." I कहा as I stepped away from Rosalie. "Something is going on, and most of आप understand..but I don't. So someone better start explaining what the hell is going on, and the faster the better."

"Emmett," Carlisle कहा as he looked at me.

"No," Edward कहा as he stepped between us. "Emmett, you're right. I'm sorry we don't have time to explain everything in depth, but we just don't. What आप all need to know is that this entire thing was a trap. The Volturi took Bella hoping that we would come here to get her, that we would walk right into their trap and they could kill us all...but we ruined their plan when we got her back."

I turned to look at Bella, having almost forgotten that she was in the room. She was curled up on the couch, doing her best to look small, like she wasn't there. When Edward started explaining things though her face changed and she was filled with horror and self loathing. Edward moved quickly to her side, whispering to her that this was not her fault, that the entire time they wanted us, but used her.

"Then the fight on the roof happened, and they had another opportunity." Alice कहा as she picked up the story where Edward left off. "The took him knowing we would be close behind, Emmett what we just saw was the entire guard rushing our room from either end of the hall. They were दिया direct orders...to kill us all."

"So what did आप see?" I asked Tallulah as I turned and glared at her. "I mean, you're one of them..what did आप see that made आप jump ship?"

"I saw things a bit differently then Alice did, let's just say we don't have long..at all. We need to be going now." She said, getting nervous.

"I think we need to go with her." Alice said.

We all stood and looked at each other, Edward's eyes going from face to face as he listened to our thoughts. I was confused, but I could tell this girl was serious, and if she was lying to us all then we were going to have the fight of our lives.
