AS EVERYONE WAS packing to go on separate trips to gather people, Ophelia was pacing back and forth in her room which she shared with Dean, waiting on for her phone call to be answered.
"What is it, sister?"
"Getting straight to the point, I see," Ophelia commented before giggling as Nik chuckled. "Before I say anything, I want to know if you guys don't have your own problems going on?"
Nik took a second to answer, "What's the problem, Ophelia?"
"Nik..."
"We have no problems currently except that our dearest little Hope is one years old today," he stated, probably with a small smile on his face, too. "But, what is it, sister? I know you don't call for just anything. Is something happening?"
Ophelia let out a sigh and glanced over at Dean who ended up tripping over his bag of weapons that he had brought into the house. She giggled and then spoke up after a second, "You remember Bella, right?"
"Of course. What of her?"
"She ended up dying and well, she's now a hybrid of some sort. She had Edward's venom, and my blood in her system. Somehow they entwined and now she is able to walk in the sun without bursting to flames or shining," Ophelia explained quickly. "But anyway, the point is that she was pregnant and she ended up dying during the birth. And the baby — Renesmee — isn't completely. She seemed to be the one who absorbed the Cold One abilities most. She has been growing too fast. She is only suppose to be three months old, but she looks to be around eight."
"That all has happened in the past six months?" He asked rhetorically before sighing. "Damn."
"Yeah. And now a cousin to the Cullen's have went to the Volturi which is the like king's of Cold Ones, and now they're declaring a war, of sorts, with us. They want Renesmee dead and we're trying to recruit people to be on our side when we need them." Ophelia ran a hand through her hair. "I'll actually be leaving with Bella and Edward to go recruit the Denali's. But, I wanted to—"
"To call your favorite sibling to see if he would help," Nik interrupted cockily.
"For all of you to come and be by my side. To be here with Rebekah and I when we need you, Nik," she said with a slight chuckle. "Will you?"
"Of course. I'll send word to the others, they're around here somewhere, and we shall be there by tomorrow," he declared.
"Thank you, Nik. I gotta go, but just know that I love you so much," she told him with a small smile as she heard Bella yell for her downstairs.
"I love you too, little one." He then hung up and she turned to face Dean who sweeped her off her feet. He pressed a kiss to her lips and she hummed before patting his chest, backing away.
"Rebekah and Sam are picking up Bree from your witch friend, right?" Dean asked as he watched his girlfriend continue packing.
Ophelia sighed. "No matter how much I tried to talk her out of it, Bree is her own person and she wants to repay me for saving her. But, yeah, they're picking her up." She smiled lightly and swung her bag over her shoulder. "I'll be back in a few hours, alright?"
Dean nodded and pulled her into him by her waist. "Just be careful, alright."
She smiled and pecked him on the lips. "Of course." Before she turned around, she pulled him into another kiss that lasted more than fifteen seconds. Pulling away, she smirked before walking away. "See you soon, love!"
PULLING UP TO the Denali household which was held in Alaska, Ophelia gaped in awe at the mountains, and the house which was much like the Cullen's, but built more for harsh weather.
"This is one place I haven't been to," the original stated. "I've been to Canada once, but that was like two hundred years ago."
"Was it beautiful, auntie?" Renesmee asked as she looked up at her with big eyes.
"Yes, it was, little one," she told her and ran her hand through the little girl's hair, glancing over at Seth who sat on the other side of Nessie.
As the car came to a stop, Edward got out of the driver's seat, and walked up to the Denali family who piled out of the house, staring at them in confusion.
Ophelia and Bella listened in on their conversation from inside the car, making sure nothing bad was going to happen.
"Edward, is everything all right?" Tanya asked, "Why didn't you tell us you were coming?
"Is it lrina?" Carmen questioned as they all watched him approach them. "Have you heard from her?"
Edward shook his head. "Not directly."
"Why is your bride waiting in the car?" Eleazar asked as he glanced back at them in the car.
"And why have you brought a wolf with you?" Kate asked which annoyed Ophelia. They were asking too many questions, barely leaving Edward any room to speak. "I can smell him from here."
"My family is in danger. I need your help," Edward stated, getting straight to the point.
"What's happened?"
"It's hard to explain but I need you to be open-minded. Can you do that?" He asked as he studied the four of them with narrowed eyes.
"Of course."
Bella sighed and turned around to face her daughter with a small smile. "Okay. Time to meet some new people."
"What if they don't like me?" She asked and Ophelia shushed her by placing a warm kiss to her forehead.
"They'll love you," Seth stated at his imprint, giving her a grin.
Bella nodded, agreeing with them. "They will. Once they understand you."
"They just haven't met anyone like you before," Seth said as he brushed Nessie's hair back away from her face. "Don't worry. Your mother, Auntie 'Phelia, and I will be right by your side no matter what."
"We will, honey," Bella told her daughter softly. "Come on, lets go to them."
They all got out of the car, and Renesmee grabbed Ophelia's hand as they turned around to face the Denali's. The family was all shocked upon seeing the child and jumped back in fright.
"The Volturi will come for all of us," Kate states in fear as Tanya stood in front of her.
"You get that thing out of here," Tanya spat as she stared with wide eyes at Nessie.
Edward shook his head, trying to calm them down. "She's not what she looks like."
"This is a crime!" Tanya suddenly attacked Edward and he quickly pushed her aside. Kate does forward and grabbed his hand, shocking him.
Before Ophelia could jump in, Bella was already by her husband's side, grabbing her arm, and flinging the blonde away. "Stay back!" She warned and glanced back to see Renesmee in Ophelia's arm, Set standing protectively beside them.
"She has blood in her veins," Edward told them as they glared at him. "You can feel her warmth."
"I can feel it," Carmen stated quietly.
Edward nodded at her. "I'm her biological father. Bella is her mother."
Kate shook her head. "Impossible."
Bella interrupted her, "It's true. She was born while I was still human."
"I've never heard of such a thing," Eleazar spoke up, letting out a breath.
Edward took a step closer to them. "She can show you, if you let her." He nodded to Ophelia and Seth who walked towards them with Renesmee. "Tanya, you owe us this much. We're all under a death sentence because your sister didn't let us explain."
Ophelia walked up to them, Renesmee still in her arms. "If any of you even flinch towards her the wrong way, body parts will begin flying," she threatened before allowing Nessie to reach towards Tanya's face.
The blonde flinched, and Bella told her, "Don't be afraid. This is how she communicates."
Renesmee touched Tanya's cheek, letting her feel and awe her memories, and then Tanya pulled back, staring at the child with surprise eyes. She turned to face her memory, letting out a shaky breath. "It's true. She's not immortal."
The rest of the family slowly walked towards Renesmee with wide eyes.
Ophelia turned to Bella and gave her a look which the younger girl understood. "I have to go pick up my family. They'll be landing in the state next to Washington because they don't want any enemies to know where they're going."
Bella nodded and took Renesmee from her arms before Ophelia took off in a speed that outnumbered the Flash.
