Elizabeth, better known as Lizzie, was a Winchester by birth but a Cullen by nature. Growing up as a Winchester was never easy for her; she couldn't remember a time when she wasn't decapitating some monster's head. But one accident changed everythin...

It took a long drive, an airplane ride, and a fast Lamborgini but finally they were in Italy. But Volterra wasn't as easy to get to with the Saint Marcus day festival going on. Crowds of people were dressed in red and blocking every path Alice tried. She stopped the car and Bella and Lizzie got out.
"Alice!"
"Bella, you're the only one he can't see coming. Lizzie, you'll have to go with her and block your mind. If I go, he'll read my thoughts. He'll think I'm lying. He'll rush into it."
"Where do we go?"
"He'll be under the clocktower. Go!"
Lizzie picked Bella up bridal style and sped off through the crowd at vampire speed. She stopped in the middle of a different crowd, glancing around for any sign of the clock tower.
"Do you know where you're going?" Bella asked in a panic.
"No idea, believe it or not, this is my first time in Italy," Lizzie remarked before speeding off again.
She saw the clock tower in the distance. Lizzie pushed her and Bella through the people in red, stopping just before a fountain as the clock struck noon. Bella flung herself out of Lizzie's arms when she saw Edward. He was stepping out into the sunlight as he unbuttoned his shirt for the world to see. Bella ran through the fountain's water and jumped into Edward's arms just as he was about to reveal himself. Lizzie sighed in relief and pushed the two into the shadows of the Volterra castle.
"You're here?"
"I'm here," Bella breathed out.
"And you're an idiot!" Lizzie cursed, shoving at her brother's shoulders. She then caught sight of something outside and vanished, leaving Bella and Edward to their love confession.
She glanced around as a blur sped past her eyes, a second later a body collided with hers. She looked up and saw her brother staring back at her.
"Dean?"
"Lizzie... what are you doing here?"
"What am I doing here? What are you doing here? This is Volterra, home to the Volturi. You shouldn't be here, at all," Lizzie stressed.
"I came to stop Edward from being a suicidal idiot! He's here, Lizzie. He came to---"
"I know," she cut him off, taking a hold of Dean's arm and dragging him through the castle's doors to where Bella and Edward were hugging. "We saved him already."
"Oh," Dean's face fell.
"Wait, how did you know where he was?"
"Used to be a hunter, remember? I heard Rosalie talk to Edward, then Alice phoned. I pieced everything together and tracked him down here."
"Dean?" Bella stared at her cousin in surprise.
"What are you doing here?" Edward asked.
"It doesn't matter," Dean dismissed before grinning at Bella. "Hey there, Bells, been a while."
