Edward p.o.v
As soon as Bella and the rest of the Ravens took of their hoods, thier eyes - which were a beautiful gold colour showing their diet -  seemed to scan the room for a threat. When they noticed to Crows they smirked causing the Crows to snarl at them. "Hello Bella dear. I see you have decided to turn up." The leader - Lillian I think -  crooned. "We were busy hunting. And hello, I guess that was where that horrid smell was coming from.." The rest of Bella's Coven grinned. Whilst their rivals by the look of it beared their teeth. It was hard to concentrate with the thoughts of my family.
Bella's here? - Carlisle
Little sis! - Emmett
And a variety of theory's from the rest. I noticed for the first time that the Raven's and the crows were shielded from my power. The Crows were simply unreadable whereas if I searched enough, the ravens minds were all shielded by the same shadows mixed with fire and ice. It was incredibly strange and strong. I decided to try break it. Just to see if I could in return I got attacked by shadows piercing my mind. It stoped as soon as it started but I still stumbled back. Bella turned to face me. So it was her shield, I thought.
"What do we have here? Trying to break through my shields were you?" She said at the last part, her coven snickered. Bella, unsmiling looked to one of her coven members. They looked at us all and turned back to Bella. Pointing at us individually she said "Carlisle Cullen, Edward Cullen, Alice Cullen, Jasper Cullen, Emmet Cullen, Rosalie Cullen, Esme Cullen. All turned a few hundred years before us. " Bella nodded. Then the leader of the Crows spoke up. "Gifts?" The Ravens turned to them.
"Your asking for our help?" Bella's second asked arching an eyebrow.
"It would benefit both our covens." One of the crows said. "See our leader has already told us, so it would only benefit you." The third of the Ravens said. Lillian snarled and Bella chuckled - a cold dead sound that sent shivers running down my spine. "Hate me till' you need me...That one," she said pointing at me " can read minds, yours is already shielded I believe?" She asked them they nodded in annoyance. She then looked to Jasper. "He can feel and influence peoples emotions. And Alice can see the future. I shielded from all if their gifts, I suggest you do to." She finished and started adjusting her gloves. Lillian nodded and looked away. A member of Bella's Coven tilted their head "not even a thanks?" She said in mock hurt. The Coven grinned at that, whereas Lillian just said with annoyance in her voice "I don't need to thank that bitch." Bella's Coven snarled but Bella just smiled and said "How kind." Lillian rolled her eyes.
"You don't even care do you? You don't seem to care about anything since you got here. You don't care about missions, you don't care whether you live or die-"
"Get lost Lillian." One of the Ravens growled. "Oh? Where should I go? Unlike some people, I care about my position." Bella didn't look at her as she said. "I heard hell is particularly nice this time of the year." (Yes I got this from TOG) I heard Emmet chuckle and most of my family seemed to hold in laughter. The Ravens seemed to do the same except for 2 who outright laughed.
Someone from Lillian's coven opened their mouth but Aro cut them off.
"Please laidies, we have guests." The two Covens glared at each other one more time before finally turning to face us.
"Anyway. This is the Cullen's. Cullen's, this is my Ravens, and Crows." They looked all of us up and down before turning away. I tried to hide my hurt. My Bella didn't recognize me. I suppose it had been a while, and she had been turned and lots of people forget their past after being turned. "If you don't mind, we have better places to be." Bella said gesturing towards the Ravens. Shit. Did she seriously just speak to Aro like that? My family were thinking the same. "You should show more respect girl." Cauis smiled. Bella looked at him blankly and let out a nother dead chuckle before walking right past us, brushing against my shoulder as she did so. Her coven followed her and all I heard was the door shut as they left.

Bella p.o.v
I needed to get out, not only did I hate meetings, but something about those other vampires scent's. The Cullen's, they seemed familiar. I must've noticed their scent before when they visited so me other time. Yeah, that was it. Not only that, but what Lillian had said, about me not caring. It hurt because it was true. The only thing I cared about was my Ravens. They were the only ones I trusted and the only ones who could fully trust me. Whilst during every encounter with the Volturi kings and the Crows Me and my coven had to pretend to be emotionless, cold and uncaring, I did still have some emotions left in me. Allot of the time I was distant and around the Ravens was the only time I could let my guard down and fully mourn. I mourned allot of things, the lives I took, my lost human life but mostly him. I didn't know his name, or what he looked like due to me purposely forgetting during the change but I knew exactly what happened and still felt immense pain. But despite all this, I love my Ravens and they know it.
My Second could tell something was wrong and challenged me to a fight in the ring. Needing to work of my frustration and anger I agreed and so we went.
