02


Elvira Targaryen crosses her arms, her eyes are like daggers as she glares at Carlisle. The rest of the Cullens flinch while feeling slight guilt as they are not the ones receiving Elvira's anger. Alice, deciding that having Carlisle alive would be better than him being dead, rushes towards the redhead with a bright smile plastered on her pale face.

"Elvira!" Alice shouts and wraps her arms around Elvira's neck in an embrace. "It has been so long!" Alice releases the royal, taking a step back to inspect the clothing on her body. Alice tsks and shakes her head. "We need to go shopping to give you more modern clothes. When was the last time you were in civilization?" She jokingly inquires. To her and everyone else's shock, Elvira actually taps her chin in thought.

"Fifteen years I believe. It might be twenty years. I lost count after a decade." Elvira informs the group. Rosalie strolls towards the redhead and quickly hugs her. "Hello, Rose. I must say, it seems you have gotten even more beautiful over the years." She pulls away to caress the blonde's cheek. Rosalie closes her eyes in slight bliss from seeing her best friend once again. That moment is ruined when Emmett speeds over, lifting Elvira over his head while twirling around. Elvira squeals and Emmett hysterically laugh. "Emmett! Put me down!" She yells, pounding her small fists against his arms. Emmett carefully places her back down onto the ground.

"Elvira." Elvira spins around to come face to face with Edward. Edward has a huge grin on his face as he caresses her face in between his hands. "I never thought I would see you again. You have changed." His eyes roam hers. He frowns when he detects hidden emotion behind her periwinkle eyes. "What has-"

"Edward! Jasper has told me about how you have finally found your blood singer!" Elvira gushes, grabbing his hands off of her face and claps her hands together in excitement. "When do I get to meet her? Is she pretty? Is she treating you well? Do I need to threaten her?" A dark aura surrounds Elvira's figure while her dragons snarl.

"Edward?" A small, frail female voice interrupts their interaction. Elvira glances over to see a human with long brown hair, chocolate brown eyes, and extremely pale skin. "Who is she?"

"You must be his singer. I am Elvira Targaryen, an old friend of the Cullens. Jasper has contacted me to come help protect you." Elvira walks towards her and observes her carefully. The girl smiles nervously, holding her right arm with her left hand.

"I'm Bella Swan, Edward's girlfriend. It's nice to meet you." Bella's awkwardness causes Elvira to quirk an eyebrow.

"You sure have picked a strange one, Edward." Elvira comments. She greets Esme by kissing the woman's cheeks. "Darling, you seem too stressed out." Elvira frowns in worry. "Are you alright?" Esme lays a gentle hand on Elvira's arm.

"I am fine," Esme replies. Elvira flinches when Edward randomly taps her shoulder.

"We have to meet up with the mutts in a couple of minutes. Are you ready?" Edward asks. Elvira takes one glance at her dragons, who all blow smoke at her through their noses, and nods her head.

"Yes. Let us-" Elvira is cut off.

"Adelina." Carlisle hisses, accidentally calling Elvira by her middle name. "It has been centuries since my unforgettable mistake. I do not ask for you to forget; however, I do beg for your forgiveness." Bella slightly glances at Edward confused at what mistake Carlisle has done and why they are speaking in such an olden way to the Targaryen woman. Edward grabs Bella's hand, giving it a small squeeze. Elvira blankly gazes at Carlisle's face. She sees only sadness, remorse, and determination in his eyes. She still calmly shakes her head no.

"I am terribly sorry, Carlisle, but your mistake had caused me great loss. A loss that I still mourn present day." She whispers. Vera presses her snout on Elvira's shoulder to comfort her mother. Elvira strokes Vera. Carlisle closes his eyes. Elvira ambles towards the man and pats his hands. "I may not forgive you for the pain you have caused me, but I shall act civil." She looks at Edward. "Where are we going to meet these werewolves?"

"In a clearing. Follow us." Edward answers. He picks up Bella as the Cullens begin to run to the place, Elvira hops onto Vera's back, clapping her hands to make her dragons follow the vampires. Elvira jumps off of Vera to watch as a pack of large werewolves creep their way out of the tree line and towards the coven.

"They don't trust us enough to be in their human forms." Edward voices the pack's thoughts aloud.

"They came. That's what matters." Carlisle says.

"They also want to know why dragons are here and who the woman with red hair is." Edward glances at the said girl. Elvira steps forward with her powerful aura surrounding her.

"My name is Elvira Targaryen, and these are my dragons." She points to each dragon as she introduces them. "That's Shea, Rowan, Duncan, Sullivan, and Vera." Sam Uley's eyes widen in shock at her last name.

'A Dragonborn lives.' Sam thinks. His thoughts echo loudly in the others' heads causing the look at their alpha in alarm.

'Billy told us that all the Dragonborns were killed when someone told the Volturi about their location centuries ago.' Embry states.

'The Volturi must've missed the most powerful one of all. A Targaryen is always the ruler of the Dragonborns.' Sam informs the pack. 'And the Targaryens are the most powerful Dragonborn bloodline.'

'So that means she's royalty.' Seth says.

'Yes, you idiot.' Paul growls.

'Don't talk to him like that!' Leah snarls.

'Her dragons are huge.' Jared observes.

'Seth, don't get too close to them. The dragons will gobble you right up.' Quil playfully nips Seth's ear. Leah growls at Quil in warning. Edward stares at the werewolves in slight amusement.

"They just argued about your species being dead and you being alive, Elvira." Edward's words snap the wolves out of their thoughts. Elvira shrugs while rubbing Shea's tummy.

"I am the last one of my kin." Elvira calmly says. "I will greatly appreciate if I am told their names." Bella steps up and smiles at Elvira.

"I'll tell you who is who." Bella points to the russet wolf that stood beside her. "That is Jacob Black." To the grey wolf. "That is Leah Clearwater." To the sandy wolf. "That is Seth Clearwater, Leah's little brother." To the dark sliver wolf. "That is Paul Lahote." To the chocolate brown wolf. "That is Quil Ateara." To the brown wolf. "That is Jared Cameron." To the grey with black wolf. "That is Embry Call." To the light brown wolf. "That is Collin Littlesea." To the ashy brown wolf. "That is Brady Fuller." Finally, she points to the black wolf. "That is Sam Uley, the alpha."

"Pleasure to meet your acquaintance." Elvira greets.

"Will you translate?" Carlisle inquires which Edward nods his head yes to. "Welcome. Jasper has experience with newborns." Carlisle gestures to his adopted son. "He'll teach us how to defeat them."

"They want to know how the 'newborns' differ from us," Edward informs Carlisle.

"They're a great deal stronger than us because their own human blood lingers in their tissues. Our kind is never more physically powerful than in our first several months of this life." Carlisle explains.

"Carlisle's right. That's why they are created for armies." Jasper uncomfortably states.

"Quil wants to know how many vampires constitute an army. He seems to be made nervous by the term." Edward says with a slight smirk at the fact he just embarrassed one of the wolves.

"A newborn army doesn't need thousands like a human army. And no human army could stand against them. The two most important things to remember are, first... Never let them get their arms around you. They'll crush you instantly. The second... Never go for the obvious kill. They'll be expecting that. And you will lose. Emmett?" Jasper calls for the bulky man who steps forward. "Don't hold back."

"Not in my nature," Emmett smirks arrogantly. He lunges at Jasper with incredible speed, throwing his strong arms to land punches on the Hale boy.

"You have to come at them from the side, and keep moving. Always moving." Jasper says during the fight. Emmett goes to attack again when he freezes. Jasper has Emmett from behind with his teeth inches away from ripping Emmett's head off. Jasper is fighting Alice next. In a couple of seconds, Alice is on his back and kissing his neck for she saw his moves before he actually made them.

"Gotcha." She whispers. Carlisle and Edward are next to spar. Edward slams Carlisle into the ground. Edward faces away from Carlisle to gaze at Bella.

"Never lose focus. One more thing..." Carlisle jumps up and tackles Edward to the ground. "Never turn your back on your enemy." The fights continue for a couple more hours.

"They want to see what Elvira and the dragons are capable of," Edward says, gazing at the redhead after reading Collin's mind. She smirks and steps into the middle of the clearing with the five dragons surrounding her.

"I hope you are all ready for a show." She taunts.
