The Power of Three [Twilight/Charmed]

Part Two - Chapter Nineteen: Gathering Together

The Cullens opened their home to seventeen vampires from around the world all of whom were eager to help with the impending trouble.

The first vampires to arrive were the Denali coven, Tanya, Kate, Carmen and Eleazar; they had been gathered by Bella and Edward who had been quick to go to their cousins for the help that they needed after what Irina had done.

After them, the Egyptian coven arrived with Amelia and Paul, who were exhausted by their long hall flight across the world to track down the coven; Benjamin and Tia were more than willing to help when they heard Renesmee's story however Amun and Kebi only stayed because they didn't want to lose any members of their coven.

A couple of days after the Egyptian's had arrived, Rosalie and Emmett returned from Ireland with another coven; Siobhan, Liam and Maggie, who were also willing to help when they heard Renesmee's story.

The Amazon coven arrived within the next few days along with Alicia and Embry, Zafrina and Senna were the only two members to come from the Amazon to hear Renesmee's story while the rest of the coven refused to be involved with what was happening.

Jasper's old friends, Peter and Charlotte, from his nomadic days arrived after Alice and Jasper had talked to them while on their travels; they had spoken with Amelia however the conversation was never made public about what was going on.

Then there were the nomads, Garrett, who had come back to Forks with Aiden and Leah; he was thrilled to be back in Forks and didn't waste a moment in seeking out Amelia to speak with her.

Finally there was Alistair, who had been brought to Forks by Carlisle and Esme; he had been the most difficult to convince to come and stand with the coven, he had a healthy fear of the Volturi and was less than pleased about being brought into this confrontation.

Then there had been the last remaining Romanian coven members, Vladimir and Stefan who had arrived uninvited; they seemed more interested in fighting the Volturi than anything else and hadn't been interested in hearing what Renesmee had to say.

"There's a lot of red eyes around here," Jacob murmured walking past Paul and Amelia, the brunette smiled at him as she eyed the vampires gathered in the room; while they had agreed to hunt elsewhere, the pack weren't comfortable with the amount of vampires that had gathered.

The increased number of vampires in the area had forced more Quileute's to phase and some of them were even younger than the ones that had already phased.

Paul was less than pleased with the amount of time that Amelia was now spending up at the Cullens home, he had noticed her getting close with several of the vampires and it worried him that she might be getting herself into even more trouble.

"Are you coming home tonight?" Paul asked softly pulling Amelia close, the last few days had been stressful between traveling and the amount of vampires that were in the area; he wanted nothing more than to spend some time with his girlfriend alone.

"Of course," Amelia murmured pressing a kiss to his lips before Carlisle called for everyone's attention; the brunette flashed her boyfriend a smile before she looked at Carlisle, who looked a little overwhelmed.

"Thank you all for coming to our aid in this hour of need," Carlisle started smiling weakly at Esme, she offered him a small smile in return before he looked at those had gathered.

Paul laced his fingers with Amelia's as he noticed that Vladimir was watching the brunette, they had taken an unhealthy obsession with her more so than her siblings.

"We all know that this won't be easy and the Volturi won't react well to our gathering but we must all hope that it is enough to make them listen," Carlisle  continued as everyone listened to what he had to say, they knew that he was right but the Volturi had hidden motives and they needed to be stopped.
