Chapter 27

~No ones POV~

Chris true meaning of leaving forks was to speak with the Volturi. He made it Italy

He walks in, and is greeted by a very beautiful vampire.

"I'm here to see Aro." He demanded.

The beautiful vampire smirk as she looks up and down at him. She knows who he is, and what he does.

"Very well." She calmly said. She lead the way.

"Master, you have a guest." She said. Aro stands as he sees who it is.

"Christopher...thank you Heidi." He nods to her.

"What a surprise this is Christopher?" Aro said

"Are you aware of what's happening in forks?" Chris asks him.

Aro smirks, "yes I am, I spend of few of my kind to see. But...this isn't why you came, is it?"

"I know you want Bella to become one. But Allison, she's not one." He said. He never lost eye contract with him.

Aro chuckle with a evil smile. "You must understand that both girls, well known of us."

"Allison is a hunter. But Bella is a innocent human. They both are. Aro please...leave Allison, you can have someone else." Chris said, Aro laughs.

"Who?" He ask.

Chris heavy sighs, "me...you can have me."

Aro looks at the others kings, Cauis smirks. "You know what to do Aro." He said.

"Yes. But not yet." He turn around going back to he's sit.

"Thank you for your visit, old friend." He said.

~back in forks~

I decide to hang out with embry. I know haven't seen or hang out with him and the pack. We walk down the beach.

"I'm sorry for not going to the bonfire. I had some things to do." I apologize to him.

"It's okay, just wish you were they." He said. I gave him a weak smile. Trying my best not to cry.
"Hey, are you okay?" We stop walking.

"Yeah, just miss this." I look around the beach. "Also thank you for watching me and my dad. I know with the others can be hard."

"Yeah, those bloodsuckers really care about you." He said, I gave him a face.

"Sorry." He laughs. I roll my eyes.

"So, Alice is throwing this big graduation party. You should come." I tell him.

"I don't think..." he started to back away.

"Please Embry. I really want you there, your my plus one." I tell him.

"I guess." He said. I smile, "thanks." I said.

Later that night, I got home. I see Bella, jake, Edward and Charlie.

"Hey, what's going on?" I ask them. Everyone was quiet.

"I kissed Bella. She broke her hand from punching me." Jake said. My eyes widened, I looked at Bella. Who was holding her hand that she hurt.

"We should take you to see Carlisle. Maybe he can give you something." I suggest. "I'll go with them uncle Charlie." I tell him.

"Thank you Allison." He said.

The three of us got in Edwards car. We drove to his house, thankfully her hand wasn't broken but just sprained. Emmett made a comment that she'll make a tough newborn. Which Rosalie then gets up annoyed. I see Bella go after her to talk, I stayed behind.

"I know for sure, Allison will make a badass newborn." Emmett excitedly said. I chuckle rolling my eyes.

"Yeah, you wish." I tell him.

"Are you kidding me! The way you pull out knives or when you shoot that arrow. Super badass!" He clapped his hands.

He's body expressions made me laugh, "if I were one, I won't need my weapons." I challenge him.

"You are so on little sis." He smirks.

I notice Thomas sitting on the couch, so I made my way to him.

"Mind if I sit?" I tell him. He looks at me.

"Please...is Bella gonna be okay?" He ask me.

"She'll be fine." I tell him. I kept staring at his eyes. Those beautiful golden eyes, and him. Just wish I could kiss him, tell him I never stopped loving him, tell him I love you.

"What?" He chuckles. I smile, which then he smiles.

"Just...just your eyes." I softy chuckle.

He chuckles, "ok-okay." We started laughing, I look up to see, Carlisle, Edward and Jasper smiling at us. I knew I was going to think what to do, but I want to spend as much time with them. I see Bella came back from talking to Rosalie.

"I'll see you at graduation." He said.

"I'll be the one in gold." I chuckle.

Edward drove us back. "Your dad is gonna miss your graduation." Bella said.

"He's gonna try and make it back soon." I tell her. We finally made it home, I went my guest room and asleep fast.

~Nightmare~

I was in the woods, it's dark. I look up see the only the moon, full moon.

"Hello?" I said. I started walking, kept looking around to see anyone. I stop walking, "Allison." I hear a whisper.

"Hello, who's there?" I said in a louder voice.

"Allison." It said again. I follow the voice, but it lead me to nowhere.

"Allison..."

I felt my heart racing, the voice didn't sound familiar.

"Allison...Allison.....Allison!" The voice is getting louder and louder.

"ALLISON!"

I jump up from my bed, I'm gasping trying to caught my breath. I look towards the window the sun is out.

I hear Bella come in, she looked worry. "Hey, hey. It's okay. You had a nightmare, just breathe." She tries to calm me down.

I had my hand on my chest, trying to slow my breathing. I felt something, cold and sharp next to me. I lift up my covers, only to find one of my daggers. "How did that get there?" Bella ask nervously.

"No idea." I said.

"Allison!" We hear Charlie, we both rush down. I see my dad!

"Dad! Your home." I said.

"Of course, I wouldn't miss your graduation." He hugs me.

"I'm glad your here." I said to him. "Well, I'm going to get ready with Bella. Is that okay?" I ask him.

"Sure. I just need to unpack and I'll see you there." He said, picking up he's bag.

We start getting ready for graduation. I look in the mirror, holding my cap. I sigh, "finishing high school, with my friends and family." I look at the picture of mom. "Just wish you were here mom." I whisper. We head to the car and on the way to the school.

Jessica gave her valedictorian speech, then it was time to receive our diploma! I wish next in line, the principal called my name. I see my dad stood up clapping, I wave at him. I see Thomas smiling at me, I smile back. After the ceremony, I walked with my dad. "How was the busy trip?" I ask.

He was quiet for second, "good." He said. I look at him worry, "it's okay, Allison, I hear Alice is throwing a party." He said.

"Dad..." but he stopped me.

"Don't worry about me. Have fun. You just graduated." He hugs me. I chuckle, "I know. Just...just be careful." I tell him.

"I will. I love you." He said

"Love you too dad." I said.

Later that night, I arrive to the Cullens house. I see almost every one there. She wasn't kidding when she said big party. I see embry, "you made it!" I hug him.

"Yeah. Bella still piss about Jake kissing her?" He ask me.

"Very. Anyways I'm glad your here." I said. I could see Thomas staring at us.

"Oh hey! I got you a present." He pulls out a necklace, with a tiny wolf as a charm.

"It's pretty. Thanks." I thank him. Suddenly I hear a voice behind me.

"Allison, um can I talk to you?" I turn to see Matt. I really haven't spoke to him since I found those pictures of me in his camera.

"Yeah, sure. I'll be back." I tell embry.

We went somewhere so we can talk. I can see Thomas and embry eyes glue on us.

"You get two minutes." I tell him.

He clear his throat. "So I know I took some pictures of you that I should've told you about.  But is it really that bad that I think you're beautiful...and I think you should be the subject of a perfect photograph." he tell me.

At this point I'm creeped out, "um, Matt, some of those pictures I-I don't even know how you took them." I tell him.

He chuckles, "telephoto lens. I mean, come on, Allison. Photographers call them candidates."

I chuckle, "Well, police officers call it stalking."

I see Alice, stop while coming down the stairs. She saw something. Matt start saying I should get over myself. He got offended of what I said.

"What you think I'm that kind of guy that has pictures of you on my wall or that guy that said. 'Well, if I can't have her. No one can.' Well get over yourself, cause there's other pretty girl walking through the room every five minutes." He tells me.

I scoff, "well, then, all you have to do is wait another three. Good luck." I tell him.

I try to walk pass him, "Allison wait." I grabs my arm. I suddenly grab his arm and shoulder at the same time, twists his arm, laying on the floor. Everyone saw what I did. "What the hell?" Matt said.

I see Thomas rush to me, so did Embry. "Sorry...um." I walk away from him.

"Hey, did he hurt you?" Thomas looked angry. He was about to go to Matt. "No! There's people here and these people are humans." I calm him down. I look at embry too, "calm down." I mouth to him.

"Alice needs us." Thomas said. I nodded, we all head out said. We meet the others and Carlisle outside. "What...what did you see Alice?" I asked her.

"They're coming here." She said. "They'll be here in four days." She said.

Carlisle Paste back and forth, "this could turn into a bloodbath." Carlisle said.

"Who's behind it?" Edward asked Alice.

"I didn't see anyone I recognized. Maybe one." Alice said.

"I know his face. He's local. Riley Biers. He didn't start this." Edward said.

"But why him?" I said.

"Whoever did is staying out of the action." Alice tells us.

"They must be playing with the blind spots in your vision." Carlisle tells her.

"Either way, the army is coming and there aren't enough of us to protect the town." Jasper mentions the arm coming to town.

"Hold up. What damn army?" Jake ask.

"Newborns. Our kind." Carlisle answers him.

"What are they after?" Embry ask.

"They were passing around Bella's and Allison's scent. A red blouse, and a black glove." Alice tell them.

"They're after Allison?" Embry said

"They're after Bella?" Jake said at the same time as embry. "What the hell does that mean?" Jake looks at Carlisle for answers.

"It means an ugly fight. With live lost." Carlisle tell us. I glance at Alice, her eyes said it all. The battle. It's where I'll die.

Jake looks back at his friends, both nodded. "All right. We're in." He said.

"Me too." I tell them.

"What! No! No way!" Thomas stood next to me.

"No. Thomas is right Allison. You'd get yourselves killed. no way." Bella tells us.

"I can protect myself." I tell her.

"Allison. You can't, don't do this." Embry said.

"I wasn't asking for permission." Jake said

" neither was I." I tell her.

"Edward?" She whines to him.

"It means more protection for you." Edward tell her. He glance at me knowing I won't change my mind of leaving.

I nodded to him, we discussed about the fight, and training everyone will need. I went back inside, I left something grab my arm. I turn to see Thomas, "please, don't be part of this. I lost you once, I can't lose you again." He begged me.

"I have to do this. I'm not only protecting me but Bella as well. She's my family." I tell him.

"We can protect you, both of you. Allison. Please?" He looks at me.

"I'll see you at training." I walk away from him.

I calm myself down, I decided to stay at Bella's house again, just for tonight. Bella want to talk about me being part of the fight.

"Allison. You can't be serious about fighting. With newborns." She tells me. I was sitting on my foot of her bed. "Bella, I know the danger." I said

"What about your dad? Does he know?" Bella ask me.

"Carlisle will speak to him." Edward assure her.

"You're crazy. You know that?" She tells me. We laugh.

"I know this has, like zero of what we're talking about. but why did you threw Matt on the ground at the party?" She ask me.

"Okay, please don't tell Thomas or embry." I tell them. I nodded.

"A few months ago, Matt gave me a ride home. I know I shouldn't go through people stuff. But I found pictures of me in his camera." I tell them. Bella's face was shocked.

"Pictures of me at home, in my room. Some of them at your house when I stayed here. Then at the party he apologize but I told me it was creepy and it's what stalkers do. He got offered and well I threw him on the floor." I explain to them.

"Oh my god. Pig." She said. I laugh, "yeah." I said.

"Well, I better get some sleep. Night" I tell them.

No ones POV

Carlisle was in his office when he got a phone call from the hospital.

"This is Dr. Cullen." He answers. He drop his pen, cover his mouth.

"Are you sure it's him?.....okay I'll be there." He hangs up.

He speds for his keys and coat. "What's wrong dear?" Esme asked him.

"It's Chris. He's in the hospital, doesn't look good." He tell her. He looks behind her, to see his adoptive kids. All with a sad look, "I'll call Charlie. Allison is at his house." Esme tell him. He kisses he cheek, and leave to the hospital.

He enters the hospital, and he's found by one of the nurses. "He doesn't look good. His wounds are too deep." She tells him.

"Okay. Get him prep for surgery. Call the OR!" He orders.

"Chris, Chris. Who did this to you?" He whisper to him.

"She..she stabbed me. Hie-Heidi.....Volturi." He coughs.

"The Volturi? Why?" He ask. Chris grabs his hand tight.

"Allison...they want Allison. Please...don't.let.them.take.her.....tell her I love her....take care...of Allison..Carlisle. You're her family now. We protect those who cannot protect themselves." He tell him.

Carlisle looks around, "let me change you. Chris if you change Allison will have her father."

Chris softly shake his head, "No. I have to honor her code....please Carlisle. Take care of Allison."

"I will." He promises him.

Chris finally gasp his last breath, Carlisle slowly closes Chris eyes. The nurse walks in. "There's no need for the OR. Time of death 1:00" he calls it.

He walks out to the lobby. Esme, and the others were there. "He didn't make it." He tell them. Esme hugs him. "Allison. Oh poor Allison." Esme tell him.

"I-I should've see this coming. I-I should've..." Alice is being held by jasper.

"The blind spots." Jasper tell her, the same thing Carlisle said before.

"We just have to prepare. Allison will be here any minute." Carlisle tell everyone one.

Back at the Swans house~

I was asleep in my guest room, when Charlie woke me up.

"Allison. Wake up. Allison." Charlie and Bella were moving my shoulders.

"Uh, what is it uncle Charlie?" I ask him half asleep. I yawn, I look up at him. He's face. I quickly stood up. "What? Uncle Charlie what?!"

"Carlisle called. It's your....it's your father." He said. I quickly grabbed my coat and my keys.

"Allison! Wait, I'll take you." He yells. The three of us rush to the hospital, we enter the emergency room. I see the Cullens there.

"Carlisle?" I ran up to him.

"You should sit." He tell me, instead I look at everyone face, tears build up.

I look back at Carlisle. "no...no. Not him, please...please not him." I cried. I left as if the world came falling on me, I left cold arms around, I see it's Thomas confronting me. I burry my face into his chest, crying. Charlie went to speak with Carlisle.

Everyone else stood quiet around me. Letting me mourn the death of my father. I pull away from Thomas. "I want to see him. Please...I need to see him" I beg Carlisle. He nodded.

I went to where they had him. Carlisle left me alone, "I'll be okay...it's okay. Thank you for being my dad, my teacher, my hero. I love you, daddy. Tell mom I said hi, okay. I'll miss you both so much, don't worry I'll see guys one day." I held his hand. I gave him one last kiss on his forehead.

I went back to the lobby after spending time alone. I see everyone is still there, Bella walks up to me, her eyes red from crying too. "I'm so sorry." She hugs me. I couldn't help but to cry more.

~no ones POV~

Thomas pulls Carlisle aside. "Do you know who did this?" He ask he's father.

"The Volturi. Aro send Heidi." He tells him. Thomas was horrible of what he said. Edward and the other join. "Why did they kill him?" Emmett ask.

Carlisle sigh softy, "Aro wants Allison. Chris must've gone to the Volturi to give himself up."

"He didn't deserve to die like this." Thomas said. As he remembers how his own father died.

"No one does." Carlisle said.

"Is there anything you can do? What if you change him?" Emmett ask.

"I can't change him without Allison permission. And Chris didn't want to be change, he wanted to honor their code." Carlisle sadly said.

The kids left the group only leaving Carlisle and Esme alone. "He ask me to take care of her. Just like his wife did too."

"And he pick the right person." She said. He smiles at her, "I know."
