A Potter Secret

Gred and Forge

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Sitting by Edward, Bella laughs at Seth and Emmett arm wrestle by the table. Sam holds up a glass. "I'd like to propose a toast. To the future of us working together and peace between our people." Paul steps in, carrying a small tray with glasses filled with some blood. The Cullens smile and each take a glass.

"So, I hear that there's an engagement to celebrate," Seth smiles.

Sam pauses for a moment as Carlisle looks at him wearily. "Her turning has been discussed and she has made a decision of her own?" Sam asks.

"Of course," Carlisle assures. "We would never force Bella into anything."

Sam nods and a smiles spread across his face. "Then the treaty shall remain intact despite her being turned," Sam smiles.

Bella and Edward smile at each other, laughing happily. "Our life together is just beginning," Edward starts. "And I promise, it will only get better from here." He kisses Bella quickly before noticing Alice who's frozen. "Alice?"

"I- I can't se-see anyone," Alice whispers. "It's like we all just disappeared!"

"Maybe it's the wolves," Jasper consoles. "Maybe you've been around them too long and it's messing with your sight."

Alice shakes her head. "This didn't happen at the party," Alice replies. "Something's coming- Something that will interrupt my sight."

"Get Bella out of here," Sam starts. "Jacob, go with them."

"I can help," Jacob assures.

Sam shakes his head. "You're not at full strength. You will be more help with Bella if we can't hold whatever's coming off. Go." Jacob nods and stands up with Edward and Bella.

"It's too late," Alice says.

Edward rushes Bella upstairs, locking her in his room before returning downstairs. Bella checks her bag, tying it to her wrist tightly. She hears crashes from downstairs before complete silence. "Isabella," a voice calls. "Come out, come out, wherever you are!"

It takes a moment before Bella recognizes the voice. Thinking back, Bella remembers Harry telling her not to trust anyone. She pulls out her wand and opens the window.

Creeping around the outside, Edward sees her first. He's frozen on the ground, not moving yet fully aware. Petrificus Totalus. Moving to the door, Isabella runs in and turns the lights out. The two intruders turn around, startled. Before they can cast a lighting spell, Isabella's on one of their backs, tying him up with a piece of rope. After getting his hands, she kicks the other, toppling them all to the ground. She ties the intruders together before standing up and turning on the lights. She glances around, seeing everyone still frozen where they were sitting.

Isabella grabs the ropes again, tightening them. She glances at the Cullens and the Wolves. "Are you all alright?" Isabella asks.

They all nod a little, the spell wearing off slightly. "Not us," The two intruders say.

"You two don't get a say!" I bark.

"Izzy," One says. "It's us! Gred and Forge!"

Isabella shakes her head, kneeling down. "And you expect me to believe you?" Isabella asks. "First rule when a lunatic has been trying to kill you since you were a month old. Now, prove your identities."

"Izzy, we dropped you off here!" Fred starts. "We told you that someone would come and get you when it was safe."

"It's not safe," George interrupts. "But we need to move you for your protection!"
