In weeks the Cullens could find a lot of witnesses that were going to help them to show the truth to the Volturi, for example, the Egyptian coven which is led by Amun who is the creator of Demetri, and one of its members Benjamin has the gift to influence the four elements, then the Irish coven which is led by Siobhan, and the Romanian that came a little bit later than others, the Amazon clan, and not forgetting the Denali coven which is led by the elder sister Tania and all of them had at least one vampire with a gift, not counting the Romanian of course, they also had some nomads vampires like Garret that is a good friend of Carlisle, also Peter and Charlotte that were friends of Jasper came to help them even when they are not there. But one question stays in their heads where are Emmett and Rosalie, the family with the Denalis were in Carlisle's study together

-Someone knows something from Rosalie and Emmett?! -Eleazar ask

-We don't know anything, we thought that they were going to bring Garret but he came because he cross path with Peter and Charlotte -Edward respond

-And if something happens to them?! -Esme asked in worry

-We would already know, that the bad news travel quickly -Tania responds to her

-If the Volturi catch them, I mean we were not here for a few days it could happen -Isabella's comment

-Aro would be the first one to show that he has an advantage -Edward said again

-Maybe not- Eleazar said unsure- I met Aro for a long time and just like all of you should I would be more worried about the decisions that Aro takes because of Athena

-Athena?! Why her?! -the newborn ask, Eleazar turns to look at the Cullens with incredibility in his eyes

-If you pretend to even talk with them you should educate her -Eleazar said with a little anger in his voice toward the others and leave the room followed by the blonde Denalis

The Cullen didn't even know how to explain to her a lot of things about their world, so they explain how they could, the next day the Amazon coven with some others were doing training since they will need it, and Zafrina was showing her gift to Bella and Edward, the mind reader was impressed, he was seeing the Amazon with animals and all, to his side was his wife that couldn't see anything

-If you weren't holding my hand right now, I could swear this was real -Edward said

-I don't see anything -Bella respond

-Edward you didn't tell me your wife is a shield -Eleazar said coming toward them

-What's a shield?! -the newborn ask

-The ones I've met are so different, like Athena's shield -the mind reader explain

-It's a defensive talent -Eleazar explains

-It's why I couldn't read your mind, even before. It's why Aro couldn't -Edward realize

-I'm surprised that you didn't know with your sister here before- Eleazar's comment

-She told me is just is different that is why I thought she was wrong -Edward said to him

-She has my gift and is even better with her, you are telling me you didn't believe her -he said in disbelief

-Is because of the difference between them- Edward starts explaining and gaining the attention of others- Athena's shield is painful when I tried it hurt me it was like a headache and that also happens when she protects someone else mind, with Bella I don't hear anything is like silence

-Is painful because she wants that people get hurt when they tried to enter her mind but I'm pretty sure that she can do it just like her gift- Eleazar said, and just like that Bella started feeling jealous again, Kate came from behind and took Bella hand and send a little shock but nothing happen to her

-Oh yeah, she is a shield, all right -Kate said- Shoulda put her on her ass

-Or your voltage has been exaggerated -Garret said to Kate

-Maybe it only works on the weak -Kate said extending her hand toward him and challenging him, he closed his eyes a little as he took a few steps forward while Carmen and Tania watched in amusement.

-Garret I wouldn't -Carlisle warns him but he didn't listen and put a finger in Kate's hand and took an electric shock that left him on his knees on the floor

-You are an amazing woman -Garret said while seeing Kate in adoration, while she only smirked

-And she was right again Kate -Tania said to her sister, while Kate just chuckle remembering a conversation that she had with the other blonde of the family and minor of the Hale family, it was a day when the two of them could be in the same space or room without glaring at each other, she told her that she would meet her mate when that person tries to challenge her gift and that they would do a lovely couple, she would have to thank her in another time and better circumstances

-She did Tanya- Kate respond with a smile, it doesn't matter how they wouldn't like her or how much they hate her they couldn't avoid loving her just a little, but those thoughts got lost when they hear vampires coming their way and they weren't expecting anyone else, the majority of them start running toward the new ones, when they get to a stop they saw Vladimir and Stefan the Romanian coven

-Vladimir, Stefan you're a long way from home- Carlisle said to them, Eleazar share a look with Carlisle if the Volturi come for them is going to be worse with those two there

-What are they doing here?! -Kate asks Eleazar

-We heard the Volturi was moving against you, but that you would not stand alone -Vladimir explain

-We didn't do what we were accused of -Carlisle said to the two

-We do not care, what you did, Carlisle -Vladimir said in boredom

-We have been waiting a millennium, for the Italian scum to be challenged -Stefan said

-It's not our plan to fight the Volturi -the leader explains

-Shame, Aro's witnesses will be so disappointed -Vladimir said to just spike the other doubts

-They enjoy a good fight -Stefan continue

-Aro's witnesses?! -Eleazar ask

-Aww -Vladimir said- Still hoping they listen?

-Carlisle this is not a simple talk with them if they bring people to see is because is a trial -Eleazar said in worry

-Let's talk in the house -Carlisle said while seeing Eleazar, and that's what they did they called for a meeting with everyone even the antisocial vampire Alistair that by the way is scared of the Volturi, not many people or the younger ones in special didn't have a clue on what they were getting into

-When Aro wants someone from a coven it's never long before evidence turns up proving that coven committed some crime -Eleazar explain while all of them are in the living room

-So he's done this before? -Bella ask

-It happens so rarely, I never realized it was a pattern -Eleazar said

-Apparently, he always pardons one person, whose thoughts he claims are repentant -Carlisle adds

-This person always has an ability, and they're always given a place in the guard -Eleazar explains again

-This is all about Alice -Edward said

-Alice?! -Eleazar asked in disbelief- This is not for Alice why would he want her when he has an even better version of Alice or better than anyone

-Who is this person who you all are talking about then?! -Benjamin asks

-It would be good if you tell us at least some of them don't know who is this person that some of you mentioned before -Tia said in a nice voice

-Is a myth a legend now -Amun answered, gaining a laugh from Eleazar and an awkward look from Carlisle and the others

-Myth? She is far from that -Stefan said with venom in his voice

-I guess that all of you know about Jane and Alec the witch twins right? -Eleazar asked Tia and Benjamin they nod their heads and paid attention like kids, even some of the nomads were like that -They are not just twins they are a triplet and they are called the witch triplet but she is the jewel of the Volturi crown her gift makes her unstoppable she is what we called a copy cat she copy gifts from everyone and make that gift even ten times better, I never saw someone that powerful, I know some of their gifts but there are that she keeps hidden or don't use them a lot, she is also the leader of the Elite guard she and her sibling are old they manage their gifts to perfection

The ones that didn't know about that tense in their place, they could die without even blinking, everyone share a look- Is even real? Because I never saw her -Amun ask again

-We meet before -Tanya explain- And well Eleazar knows her because she works with him

-How bad is she? -Charlotte asks him

-The majority of the time she was very quiet and she did what Aro ask her, but if you ever saw Alec and Jane in action let me warn all of you, they are bunny eaters because she will show you hell on earth -he ends and takes a seat

-How those she even look like? -Peter asks now

-Like an angel but in reality, she is the devil in person-Vladimir answers this time, Esme walks toward the study and pick a little picture of Athena with Stephen, she walks again toward everyone with a sad smile and shows it to Benjamin and Tia, that take the photo carefully seeing how much it meant to her

(credits to the owner of the photo, I find it on Pinterest, and pretend is Athena please)

-She is beautiful, like an angel -Tia said and everyone that was seeing the photo had to agree with her

-She looks a lot like Jane -Garret said since he had the opportunity to meet the sister

-Well they are triplet for something -Kate said in a duh tone

-And who is the guy in the photo? - Randall a nomad vampire ask

-And how we could forget her mate- Eleazar said while passing his hand through his face in exhaustion- From the little that I know he is the perfect match for her, his gift is of the shadows and strategy, that means that he can kill us and we would never know that was him or that he was even close, and a hybrid if I remember correctly, a good boy, I never saw him fight saw I don't know how good is he but I'm pretty sure he has to be good to be in the Volturi

-Hybrid?! -Benjamin asks -Like little Renesmee?

-No he is a hybrid of wolf and vampire -Carlisle explains- His name is Stephen and he is also an alpha -gaining a look of surprise from everyone there

-A very dangerous alpha -Jacob mumbles gaining also look from the vampires in the room

-Just like his mate Athena she is also a hybrid, of witch and vampire -Carlisle said to them

-This is just getting better and better -Garrett exclaim

-A very mad witch -Jacob mumbles again forgetting that everyone can hear them

-What do you mean? -Esme ask

Jacob saw that every vampire was looking at him and he shifts uncomfortably on the floor because of the attention- Mmm, in the last encounter she did something to the pack, they can no be close to their imprints without wanting to kill them, and when they are lone they start seeing things... even me, we are losing our heads

-She cursed them Carlisle -Edward explain- They pass the treaty that we have more than one time and from the looks, the both of them talk with the alpha and they didn't listen

The room stay silent just thinking about their options and what to do, of course, they will not going to let anything happen to the little kid but to fight with someone that can have them killed without even saying a word was just getting to their heads, the older vampires that listen to them were in fear they hear more stories about the triplet and they were not happy to even be in the same place with them

-But why does he need witnesses? -Maggie a vampire of the Ireland coven ask

-To spread the word that justice has been served -Alistar said for the first time- After he slaughters an entire coven

-Benjamin, Tia were leaving -Amun said while walking toward the two

-And where will you go?, he may have Athena but nothing could stop him from coming for Benjamin, Kate or Zafrina, or anyone that as a gift -Edward asks him -Carlisle might not ask you to fight, but I will, for the sake of my family but also for yours, and for the way you want to live

- We will fight -Tanya said with Carmen and Kate by her side

-This won't be the first time I fought a King's rule -Garret said

-The packs will fight -Jacob said while getting up from the floor

-We'll join you-Benjamin said

-No -Amun denied

-I will do the right thing Amun, even getting to fight this girl, you may do as you please -Benjamin said

-We will stand with you- Zenna said

-So we will -Siobhan said, the nomads nodded their heads in agreement letting him know their position

-That didn't take much -Vladimir said to Stefan

-Let's hope it doesn't come to that -Edward said

-We'll see -Alistar said to Carlisle

But any of them wasn't prepared to see the dark gift of Jane, and the paralyzing vapor of Alec, or even worse the combinations of Athena, or anyone nightmare the combination of the three gifts in action... The majority of them never saw the little blond in action and they were going to regret even imagine to fight her

While in London...

Athena enter a nice place that was showing painting works, her outfit showing that she was from the high-class people in London, she identify the Japanese vampire from away, she start walking discreetly toward him before she change her eyes color to blue and smiled toward some other people that pass her, she acts like she was seeing the paints and doing some chit chat with some artist and business person but maintaining an eye on the vampire until she walks toward him gaining his attention since he hears her walk, she smiles innocently at him when turning her eyes back to red

- The Volturi are waiting to talk with you Toshiro, my master know that your friend Carlisle ask for your help -she said in a cold voice, he turns around quickly and went to the exit almost tripping with every human there, Athena roll her eyes and walk slowly behind him, she got out while Demetri appear at his side

- Alec, Jane, and I are going to guide him to an alley and you need to block his way -she ordered, she walks faster to go behind him, Toshiro turn to see if she was still there when he turned to see in front of him when they saw the twins blocking his way, he didn't need to think twice now to know who was the girl from earlier, he tried to go back when Athena appears also blocking his way, he runs toward some streets but they appear to guide him to the alley that Athena wanted to trap him thanks to Stephen that find the place so anyone can't hear or see anything, the triplet met in the middle to go together from there

A person could be seen running away from someone, the person running to an alley when three other people appear, the triplet was there with blank faces seeing the vampire run away from them, Alec start realizing his vapor with his sister by her side, Alec and Jane wearing black outfits while Athena was wearing a white suit since she was the one that had to get the vampire out of the place he was before he realized who was chasing him

The vapor was getting closer to the vampire, that not even with his speed could escape, he was getting toward the end of the alley when Felix and Demetri appear in front of him, Toshiro tried to fight with Felix who just avoid the punch and send him toward Demetri that catch him and send him away from him while cleaning his coat like the other vampire was dirty and was messing with his coat, and he tried to attack Demetri who block the punch and send him toward the wall and it was too late for him because the vapor win to him and start taking his senses until he was cover with the black vapor

-I refuse him -he said in Japanese, but the guard ignore him- I'm not with Carlisle!

The triplet had little smirks on their faces when the kings and the alpha appear at their side, Aro turn to look at Alec while Caius, Marcus, and Stephen were seeing the scene- Alec? -Aro asks him while also giving him a sign with his hand telling him to take the vapor away, and he did he starts drewing the steam back to him, while the kings and alpha start walking ahead the vapor avoiding touching their masters, while the triplet stay behind

-I will never go against you- Toshiro said to Aro, with the other kings behind him, Stephen and Caius with scowls on their faces, with Marcus a calm face but also with caution

-Of course not, my dear Toshiro -Aro said, he extend his hand to him so he can see in his head, Athena already entering his mind and rolling her eyes when she saw it, the vampire did what Aro ask

-It seems Carlisle is still expecting you -Aro said with a maniac smile that just let the others know the destiny of the vampire, making the triplet, Stephen, and Caius smirk, Aro nod his head toward Demetri and Felix to kill him while they turn to leave the place

-Carlisle is all but ensuring his own destruction -Caius said and end with a smirk
