"Alice!"

I nudge Edward with my shoulder, trying to will him to hear me again as I cock my head towards his adoptive siblings as they near Aro and his army, "DID THEY FIND HIM?"

"Yes, they found what they were looking for," Edward smiled, realizing that he now had the interim ability to hear my inner most thoughts like everyone else in the world.

 When Alice and Jasper finally make their way to Aro and his army, two of Aro's guards harshly stop them. Aro's wickedly charismatic smile fell upon the pixie like woman, ignoring her companion's presence altogether, "My dear, dear Alice, we're so glad to see you here, after all."

"I have evidence the child won't be a risk to our kind. Let me show you," Alice insists as she extends her hand for Aro to observe the vision she had.

Putting his suspicions to the side to humor his curiosity and intrigue,  Aro motions for his guards to let Alice through their self-barricade towards him. Caius turns to his brother, hissing his a hushed tone as Felix playfully smacks Jasper's cheeks, "Brother?"

I focus my eyes on Alice Cullen, fixated on her sleek movements to offer the leader her pale hand. A moment passes with a streak of shimmer through the freezing December air, seeing Alice pull her hand away from Aro in disgust, "It doesn't matter what I show you. Even when you see. You still won't change your decision."

In that fraction of a second Alice turns to find Bella's eyes, mouthing out, "Now!"

Bella swiftly places her daughter to sit on top of Jacob, taking a moment to meet her best friend's eyes to whisper, "Take care of my daughter."

Jacob firmly nods, feeling Renesmee tighten her hold on his russet colored fur, turning and making a run straight into the woods. He loudly promises me and Edward he would take care of her, howling over Caius snapping to his guards, "Get them. Hmm!"

A black man with dreads speeds after Jake as Alice surprises us all by attacking Aro, kicking him square in the face with her leg, sending him flying backwards. He lands back on solid ground, calmly and silently ordering his guards to physically restrain Alice. Aro smiles, watching the petite woman struggle under the hold of three of his guards, "Take her away."

"Let her go!"

After barking angrily at Aro, Carlisle breaks away from our group to attack. The Cullen patriarch lunges at the army hundreds of yards away from them, shoving the two guards meters away as they come to stop his fatherly sense of protection. Carlisle and Aro then race towards each other, launching themselves off the snow covered ground to meet each other in mid-air. Aro returns to the ground, Carlisle's decapitated head in hand.

Needless to say, the Cullens and their friends and even the Packs watched in horror as Caius giddily torched Carlisle's fallen body. Seeing the fallen father, friend, ally set ablaze in front of Alice causes all of us to sprint towards our enemies, ready to avenge Dr. Carlisle Cullen.

Sam leads the Packs at my side, barking at our brothers and sister, "NO MATTER WHAT, LET'S MAKE SURE THAT LITTLE GIRL HAS PARENTS AT THE END OF THE DAY!"

As the two sides neared each other, Edward launched himself into a Superman punch, hitting a member of Aro's army so hard in the face that he cracked his jaw. Jasper breaks free from the hold that the members had on him, using his skill to easily snap off one of their heads. Rosalie dodges out of Leah and Quil's way, grabbing one of the Italian women by the throat and body slamming her onto the snow.
