The Cullens gather at their old home. Hugging and cheering and sobbing with their family. Edward and Renesmee reunite quietly, while everyone else takes to kissing their mate furiously. And everyone hugs Esme.

After a few minutes Jacob Black walks into the house, smiling at the scene, until he notices something the others seem to have forgotten. "Hey, HEY!" He shouts over the noise, and everyone stops to look at him. Even Rosalie doesn't glare at him. "Have any of you noticed the once person who isn't here?" 

Everyone looks around, finally noticing the one person they wanted to see most, and thank, is missing. Carlisle puts his hands in his pockets, only to pull them out with a disk in his hand. 

"She gave me this..." He says slowly, and puts in the DVD player immediately. Bella's face fills the screen and everyone gasps at how broken she looks. 

"Umm..." The Bella on the screen begins. "At this point it was the second time everyone went back in time. So... Here we go." 

The Cullens watch as Bella filmed their lives through the curse, Edward glares at Emmett when he punches him on the film while some people (such as Jacob) laugh. Everyone smiles at Bella and Jasper's strong friendship, and everyone is shocked at Bella for challenging Aro, let alone punching him, which Emmett found slightly amusing. Alice and Rosalie have to calm their husbands when they part with the rape comes up, and all the girls sigh at Edward's declaration of love for his wife when she's worried about him being taken away. Esme sobs when she sees everyones reactions to her death, and by the end everyone is glaring at Edward, who is disgusted at himself for even going near Jessica. 

But there's more, and Bella's broken face fills the screen again. "I'm so sorry," She whispers. "That I'm not with you while you watch this. Go down to the cliff at La Push, please. And you might find me there. Edward, I forgive you, and I hope you can all forgive me for breaking the curse, because you were all happy, and human, and I know you never wanted to be vampires in the first place. I'm so sorry."

Then the screen goes black and before any of them know it, they are on their way to La Push. Edward and Alice lead the way to the cliff Bella jumped off so many years ago. At first there is no sign of Bella, until Edward spots her through the stormy water with his enhanced vampire vision. 

"No!" Edward yells, diving straight down into the water. Her body is lying peacefully on the sea floor, with her chocolate hair floating around her pale face. He gently but quickly grabs her by the waist and hauls her up through the water, above him he sees the rest of his family jump into the water and Emmett and Jasper swim down to help him bring his love to the surface. 

"No. No. Please no," Edward murmurs, taking Bella's face in his hands and running his thumbs up her cheekbones. Everyone surrounding him is on the verge of dry sobbing, as they realise that this is third time has been forced to think Bella is dead. This is the third time Edward has lost his love. First when Alice saw the vision that lead Edward to Volterra, and then when he believed he had been too late in saving her after Ness was born. 

Except this time she might actually be dead.

Everyones eyes widen as they see Bella's features become smoother and sharper, and quite frankly more beautiful. Her hair grows longer and richer in colour as it billows in the icy sea water, and finally her skin grows hard and cold. 

Everyones breathing stills as Bella breaths in sharply. Her topaz eyes flutter open and everyone lets out the breath they didn't know they were holding. 

"Edward," Bella whispers to her love, and she touches her eyes lightly as she feels the tears in her eyes but they fail to fall. "I'm-I'm a vampire?!" 

"Yes love," Edward smiles. "You broke the curse." 

Bella's breathing picks up. "I'm so sorry." 

"What are you sorry for Bells?" Emmett ask, although he thinks he already knows the answer. 

"None of you wanted to be vampires," Be whispers sadly. "I'm so sorry. It was selfish of me to break the curse when you were all happy, and when you could have had kids and grown old together." She looks to Rosalie as she says this, but Rose simply smiles at her, telling her it's okay. 

"Bella, what you did was incredibly brave," Carlisle smiles at his daughter. "You had no idea if you would even come back to life or not." 

"I know," Bella murmurs, not meeting any of their eyes. "But I still killed my dad." Then the sobs start slightly, but  they stop when Bella feels a hand tugging at hers. 

"Mom," Renesmee whispers. "You had to do what was best for everyone. You got Grandma back, and you and dad are you and dad again, and everyone knows who they are because of you. Grandpa would be proud of you." 

Everyone smiles at Ness, and then at Bella."Yeah, Bells!" Emmett booms. "You saved us all." 

Rosalie takes Bella's hand in hers and smiles at the sister who is much stronger than anyone gives her credit for. It is hard to believe this girl is the weak human who almost got attacked by her brother because of a paper cut. "Bella, I'm not angry at you. The only reason I wanted to be human was to have a child, but now I know that was impossible I'm happier than I could ever be. I now have an eternity to spend with my husband and my family," Rosalie reassures her sister, and fresh tears that will never fall pool in Bella's eyes. 

"Thank you Bella, so much," Jasper continues. "I hope you and I can still be..."

Bella grins. "You're still my best friend Jazz." Alice clears her throat. "As well as Alice, it seems." 

Everyone laughs, and Edward, Ness and Jacob pull Bella close to them, while the others celebrate the reunion of their family. Even Rosalie and Jacob's hatred for each other is forgotten. For now, at least. 

And that is the end of that.
