"I can't find it." She muttered to herself in annoyance.

Andy searched her person for the coin. It wasn't around her wrist like it used to be. She tried to think back to when she last had it. Paris. Her gut told her she must've dropped it in Paris. She prayed she'd find it one day because now she knew the true significance of the coin. Her mother, her human mother that Mathias had loved, had given it to her. It was all she had left of her mother.

Bree knew where she was going. She remembered the familiar path she took on the way to kill Bella, this time would be much different. Her fingers laced through Diego's, their hands swinging between them as they headed for the coven.

Fred hung back a little still weary of those he did not trust, which was everyone except Bree, Diego and Andy.

They walked at a human pace towards the sweet smell of other vampires as not to arise suspicion of an attack. They kept their guard up though their posture was straight and non-threatening.

"Someone's coming." Diego murmured pulling Bree behind him protectively, he had a rather annoying habit of doing that.

"Have we met before?" The voice was deep as a large male vampire stepped into view, his black hair cropped very short as he looked at the three newborns. Bree recognised him as one of the Cullen's, though thankfully he was not the scary blonde one with the scars.

"Andy sent us." Diego spoke up as Bree tried to peek over his shoulder.

"Oh, you must be the kiddies. I'm Emmett." He commented with a smirk spotting Bree's golden eyes peeking around at him. "Hello again little one, I'm surprised she actually kept you alive."

"Andy's nice," Bree pulled out from behind her mate.

"Nice?" Emmett raised a brow, "since when?" Bree smiled and chuckled. "Come on, let's introduce you all to everyone."

The trio silently followed the male's footsteps and headed a beautiful glass house. It was stunning and reminded Bree of the home she had in Canada. The house held the same warmth and openness, they didn't have to hide their true nature here.

"Welcome to mi casa," Emmett said with a grin his arms wide as he ushered them in the door.

"Who's this?" A female spoke up as they entered the room. Bree recognised it as the clearer voice of the human that she was supposed to kill. The one that pushed Andy to save her.

"It's the newborns Victoria created. The ones that survived." Edward spoke to his wife as they looked towards the newcomers in shock. "Andy took them in." Bella released a sigh of relief at that. If Andy trusted them, she would too.

The first was a well-built male that stood a little over six feet. He had wavy black hair and pasty olive skin. His eyes, interestingly enough, held an orange tinge. It was as though he was surviving off both diets. The newborn wore a blue Henley that moulded to his form with dark navy jeans and a matching blazer. His lips were set in a thin line as he eyed the room searching for any threats as he held a small female form behind him.

The female she recognised as Bree her usual brown curly hair falling past her shoulders. The girl Andy had saved. She wore dark denim skinny jeans, a white tank with tan ankle boots and an open blue plaid shirt. In her hands she held a navy jacket with a fur lined hood. Her eyes were golden and shined brightly as she tried to get around the male holding her back from seeing more.

The last was a tall, lanky male with wind-blown blonde hair and deep wine red eyes. His posture was stiff and he looked uncomfortable being around others. His clothing choice was coordinated with the other two. He wore the same dark blue as their pants but as a waistcoat over a lighter blue shirt that was buttoned to the top and tan slacks.

Each wore a sliver chain with a coven crest on it that Bella did not recognise, but the rest of the Cullen's did.

"Hello," she said as she approached, "would you like to meet Renesme?"

"Can I?" Bree asked in a hopeful voice pushing her mate out of the way.

"Of course." Bella replied as Edward cautiously lifted his daughter into his arms and approached the trio.

Bree knelt down to the child's level as she was placed in front of her. It was strange to her, seeing a hybrid. A child like this was so beautiful it would be hard to hate it at all.

"Hello," Bree said softly, "I'm Bree," she then pointed to her mate, "that's Diego, and that's Fred."

"Are you here to help us?" The little girl asked hopefully.

"Of course."

"She wants to show you something, if you let her." Her father spoke up as the little girl reached for Bree's face.

The vampire's jaw dropped as images were projected into her mind. She saw Bella giving birth from the point of view of the child. Then she saw her playing with the wolves, and the way there family lived peacefully. It was not unlike how she lived now with her own coven, though Andy would disappear from time to time to draw the Cult off their scent she couldn't help but admire her own little family and the family that was the Cullen's.

"She's amazing." Bree commented as the little girl retreated back to her parents.

"She is." Bella agreed.

*****

Fred was quick to find his own corner in the Cullen house repelling inquiring vampire's away from him as he flicked through a random book out of boredom.

Bree was enamoured with the Cullen's, she was so happy to see them again, even if last time she did try to kill them. She felt honoured that Carlisle was so proud of her and her choice of diet and how Esme pulled her into a hug the first time she spotted her.

They were so kind and accepting of her and her little family and it was all because they trusted Andy so much.

"That crest has not been seen on a coven in a very long time." It was the straight haired blonde female that spoke to her as they walked outside to join Bella and Edward.

"It's Andy's," Bree told her and the blonde nodded in understanding.

"You must mean a lot to her then." She informed, "I'm Kate by the way."

"Bree."

"As I was saying, the Greek coven were revered in their time. They were powerful. So powerful that not even the Volturi would challenge them. They had an alliance of sorts. I met them once." She mused lost a little in memory of the Byzantine Empire.

"Andy said they were at war with the werewolves." Bree told the woman who nodded solemnly.

"They were, they won too." Kate replied, "Most vampires from my era know the story. Even though the Greek coven died, they took the wolves with them, and the Volturi hunted down the rest out of respect for their former allies. That and Caius had a bone to pick with any werewolf given what they had done to he and his wife."

Bree contemplated her words curiously. She was glad that werewolves were extinct because from the way everyone spoke, she never wanted to cross their paths. Both pairs of eyes shoot up to their destination as Eleazar spoke. "Edward you didn't tell me your wife was a shield."

"What's a shield?" Bella asked the question that was on the tip of Bree's tongue.

"The one's I've met are so different." He tilted his head as it just occurred to him.

"It's a defensive talent." Eleazar explained.

"It's why I couldn't read your mind, even before. It's why Aro couldn't." The small brunette almost forgot about the Cullen's mind tricks.

"You have a very powerful gift."

Kate grinned at Bree and winked her hand grasping Bella's as electricity charged against her skin. Bree watched in shock, it reminded her of the many times Diego shorted all the electronics in the house.

"Oh yeah, she's a shield alright, that should've put her on her ass." The blonde teased.

"Or your voltage has been exaggerated." A deep male voice spoke up his southern accent coming through.

"Maybe it only works on the weak." Kate taunted wiggling her fingers. The tall nomad took as step forward and raised his finger to her palm.

"Garrett I wouldn't." Carlisle said with a smirk as the shock sent Garrett straight to his knees.

"You, are an amazing woman." He said with half a grin and Bree joined the chuckling.

"Eleazar, Bree would like you to identify her mate's gift." Edward spoke up reminding her of the other reason they were sent. "Apparently he's been shorting all their electronics."

"I heard Bree and mate," came Diego's voice as he wandered from the house with Fred at his side.

"Amazing," Eleazar gasped looking at the males in awe. "You are both gifted."

"Fred has the ability to repel others, he can even make them forget he exists." Diego informs.

"But you," Eleazar approached assessing the young vampire. "You can absorb manipulate energy."

"Say what now?" Diego tiled his head like a confused puppy.

"Specifically fire and electricity. It's an offensive talent, I'm surprised Andromeda didn't recognise the signs, from what I was told, her brother could create, manipulate and absorb fire in the same way."

"Um," Diego wasn't sure how to respond as Eleazar ushered Kate over.

"Take her hand."

"Yeah, I saw what happened to the other guy, I'd rather not."

"Her gift will prove it. Just try it."

Diego frowned the whole time as his hand reached out taking hers. He felt the tingle of her power flow through him and jumped in surprise. It was just like any time he got shocked. It never hut but the appliance always died. Kate however had an endless supply of power and it was flowing into him like he was charging. He let go of her hand steeping away to look at his own hands in awe. His fingertips were releasing small sparks as he felt the power flow through him. He focused hard on the spark following his instinct as a bolt of electricity shot from his hand directed into a tree leaving a large wound and scorch marks.

"You also have a very powerful gift." Eleazar added.

"I didn't know." Diego looked to his mate who wore a shocked expression but was still grinning widely at him.

All eyes shot to the north picking up the sounds of running vampires. They ran in the direction of the snarling wolves knowing they would be in pursuit of whomever was coming.

"Vladimir, Stefan, you're a long way from home." Carlisle greeted with a tight lipped smile and the newborns looked to the strangers in confusion. They seemed old. Really old.

"What are they doing here?" Kate whispered to her coven.

"We heard the Volturi were moving against you. But that you would not stand alone." The cropped bleach blonde one spoke with a thick accent.

Diego recognised the accent as Romanian and remembered Andy's warning that the Romanians never did take to kindly to the Greek coven. With that in mind he pulled Bree closer.

"We didn't do what we were accused of."

"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 grinned with anticipation.

"It's not our plan to fight the Volturi." Carlisle, ever the pacifist spoke up.

"Shame, Aro's witnesses will be so disappointed."

"They enjoy a good fight." The pair chuckled.

"Aro's witnesses?" Eleazar questioned Carlisle.

"Aww, still hoping they'll listen." Vladimir taunted.

"We'll make them listen if we have to, the Cullen's are innocent." Diego spoke up stepping forward a little.

"It's impossible," Stefan whispered in horror his eyes assessing the male.

"I agree, how are you alive Tydeus?" Vladimir looked at him with interest and hatred his eyes falling to the crest around his neck and the necks of those he stood with.

"Technically he's dead," Bree spoke chuckling at her own joke.

"I see you've rebuilt your coven." Vladimir sneered. He hated the Greeks, and would always hate the Greeks because that is where the Volturi stemmed from.

"I'm not Tydeus."

"This is Diego, he's a newborn." Edward informed.

"Then who has been rebuilding the coven, I see you all wear the crest proudly." Stefan sneered.

The next word the normally silent Fred spoke caused the Romanian pair to hiss in hatred.

"Andromeda."
