"What if I tell you that I won't refuse to go with them? Hmm? Then will you let me go, I will go with them no matter how much I hate them and everything they do, no newborn army, no attack, no harm to your family," I pleaded looking them all in the eyes, putting as much sincerity into them as I could.

"How do we know we can trust you?" Emmett asked suspicious.

"I give you my word, I know that might not mean much, but I can also assure you that I never lie, and I don't plan to start. Please, please believe me, and I'll be out of your hair in-" I cut off trying to know when they will come.

"A day, they come alone tomorrow," Alice piped up and I nodded.

"I'll even wait here, lock me in this house, house arrest, have someone guard me until they come, then you can hand me over! I will not leave this house until they come, and I'll stay in someone's sight or tell you exactly where I'm going and for how long, how does that sound?" I asked trying to cover any escape that I could make.

"Well, I suppose that could work," ah Esme, how I love her and her loving ways. That might not be entirely loving, but she was giving me a chance, and that was all I needed.

"And, even if I did try to attack, it's seven against one, it'd be suicide for me, no chance," I explained and I felt the grips on my arms loosen marginally.

"She does have a point," Jasper commented. I didn't even have to mention that they had more fighting skills that I could possibly have acquired.

I saw Alice look into the future and nod "The vision changed, she's now going to go with them, and they won't sick a newborn army on us," she stated and everyone in the room seemed satisfied that I was going to do as I promised. The restraining arms on me let go and I landed on the ground.

"Thank you, for giving me a chance to prove myself," I whispered and I saw Edward out of the corner of my eye looking at me panicky. He knew the truth, he knew who those three were and what they did to me. I was their favourite toy, and he knows it.

"Uh, Bella, could I talk to you," he asked pleading with his gaze. He started pulling me out the door when Jasper asked where we were going. "Just out of hearing range, okay? I won't let her go," Edward promised and everyone looked to Alice.

"The future hasn't changed, he won't do anything," she assured and everyone nodded letting him take me out, crap.

"What are you thinking?" he growled and I sighed.

"I have to," I whispered.

"Just answer one question, are these three James, Victoria, and Laurent?" he asked pain seeming to be in his eyes. I don't know why it was there, but I wasn't going to point it out.

"I believe so," I responded still whispering, he knew everything, why I opened up to him I don't know. I just felt so comfortable around him and after he knew I was Carlisle's daughter, I just opened up with no more secrets to hide.

"Damn it Bella, why? You know who they are and you know what they did and are going to do, why are you going to put yourself up to that pain?" he asked pleadingly.

"Because I need to, it would be better this way," I told him and he sighed.

"Better than what? Carlisle finding out that his long lost daughter is actually alive, he would be ecstatic!" he was really upset that I was going to do this.
