Seth's pov (wait what?)
I didn't know what kind of vendetta Jake had against Ivory but she was still my friend and now she had a caring family and better yet they would allow the pack and I to see her whenever we wanted. Jake was explaining some stuff to the new wolves when we picked up a sound. Jake ran after it and I went to warn the Denali's.
"Vamps... weren't invited... give me a minute." I collapsed in front of Carmen and Ivory panting heavily.
"Mija let's go see." Carmen pulled Ivory with her to see the new vamps.
Ivory's pov
Mom and I arrived at the base of a small cliff where two male vamps sat taunting the wolves. The blonde one noticed me and tapped the others shoulder. Suddenly Carlisle appeared and looked at the vampires in front of us.
"Vladimir, Stefan. You're a long way from home." He spoke.
"What are they doing here?" Kate asked.
The blonde, Vladimir spoke.
"We heard you were moving against the Volturi, but that you would not stand alone." His accent was definitely Romanian.
"We didn't do what we were accused of." Carlisle reasoned
"We do not care what you did Carlisle." Vladimir rolled his eyes.
"We have been waiting a millennium for the Italian scum to be challenged." Stefan said with a smirk.
"It is not our plan to fight the Volturi." Dr. Cullen explained.
"Shame, Aro's witnesses will be so disappointed." Vladimir chuckled.
"They enjoy a good fight." Stefan finished.
"Aro’s witnesses?" Dad inquired.
"Oh, still hoping they’ll listen?" Vladimir smirked.
"When Aro wants someone from a coven, it’s never long before evidence turns up proving that coven committed some crime." Dad explained.
"So he's done this before?" Bella asked.
"It happens so rarely, I never realized it was a pattern." Dad muttered
"Apparently he always pardons one person whose thoughts he claims are repenting." Carlisle nodded.
"This person always has an ability, and always given a place with the guard." Dad said gravely.
"Mom? Dad?" I asked skeptically.
"Don't worry, we won't let them take you." Mom assured, however a million thoughts ran through my mind again my eyes went to the Romanian vamps upon the cliff. The looked at me and smiled.
"We want to meet her." Vladimir spoke while beckoning me closer. I looked to mom and she nodded. I stepped closer to the Romanian vamps and placed my hand on Vladimir's cheek and repeated the action on Stefan. Vladimir pulled a funny face and I giggled a bit before Stefan lifted me onto his shoulders and carried me back to the house. When we got there Carlisle explained everything again.
"This is all about Alice, he has no one like her." Edward thought aloud.
"Which is why she left!" Bella exclaimed.
"But why does he need witnesses?" Emmett asked.
"To spread the word that justice has been served, after he slaughters an entire coven." Alistair spoke up. Vladimir and Stefan were speaking with mom and dad. Benjamin and Tia stood next to me. Senna and Zafrina were talking to eachother about something I couldn't hear.
"Benjamin, Tia, we’re leaving." Amun said sternly.
"And where will you go? What makes you think they’ll be satisfied with Alice? What’s to stop them from going after Benjamin next? Or Zafrina, or Kate, or anyone else with a gift, anyone they want. They’re goal isn’t punishment, it’s about power, it’s acquisition. Carlisle might not ask you to fight, but I will. For the sake of my family, but also for yours, and for the way you wanna live." As soon as Kate's name was mentioned I looked to her for reassurance. She smiled and gave me a look that said she wasn't going anywhere.
"The packs will fight, we’ve never been afraid of vampires." Jacob said.
"We will fight, but not for you." Auntie Tanya confirmed.
"This won’t be the first time I’ve fought a king’s rule." Garrett gave a slight chuckle
"We will join you." Benjamin smiled at my family.
"No!" Amun growled.
" I will do the right thing, Amun. You may do as you please." Benjamin sighed and hugged me.
"We will stand with you." Senna nodded towards my family. Soon the other covens were saying they would fight with the Cullens.
"That didn't take much." Vladimir looked around.
"Lets hope it doesn't come to that." Edward spoke. Alistair shoved past him and stood beside me.
"We'll see." He smiled down at me.
"Time for bed mija." Mom scooped me into her arms. I yawned and nodded. Mom placed me in bed and kissed my forehead. "Tomorrow you get to meet your god parents mija. Good night my love."
"Night mom." I closed my eyes and drifted into sleep.
