Author's Note: So, this is my first time doing this. This story is going to be a bit between AU , movie and book. But it will mostly be AU. I know it says Garrett and OC pairing, but Garrett won't appear until the next chapter. Bare with me and sorry for any mistakes.


"And in other news, another teenager has gone missing," the news reporter in the television somberly said, "sixteen year old Dean Connor was last seen at a café near Seattle mall. His mother…"

Ruby Jane Cullen grimaced as the news reported kept talking. The killings have been escalating more and more each passing week. Her golden eyes scanned around the room. The eighteen year old could see the worried expression on her family's faces. Especially on her adoptive parents, Carlisle and Esme Cullen.

Rosalie and Jasper Cullen, her adoptive brother and sister, were staring at the TV with intensity. Ruby knew that Jasper wanted to go to Seattle and take care of the problem. But whenever he brought the subject, Carlisle would tell him no. Emmett, her other adoptive brother, was getting impatient…as well as her.

Only Alice and Edward, her other adoptive sister and biological brother, agreed with Carlisle. They needed to wait for the right opportunity to approach the newborn. Carlisle was afraid that they would chase the newborn away and that it would terrorize another city.

Not only did they had to worry about the newborn, but also Victoria and the Volturi. Ever since the rescue of her brother, Alice has been keeping a close eye on the leaders of the Volturi, especially Aro. He had taken a great interest on not only her brother and sister but Bella as well.

Victoria had managed to escape her brother, while he had been tracking her. Alice had seen Victoria but it looked like the redhead would always change her mind on coming back from Forks. She has been annoying since the moment the three nomads walked in during their baseball game. Ruby hated to admit that Victoria had great skills on hiding, but she knew that redhead couldn't stay away for long.

"Another one," Esme sadly said. "It's the third one this week."

Ruby could hear the distress on her mother's voice. She grasped Esme's hand gave it a comforting squeeze.

The motherly vampire smiled softly at her and held her hand as they continued to watch the news.

"It's getting out of hand," Carlisle sighed heavily. He rubbed his forehead in frustration. "This will get the attention of the Volturi if it's not stopped."

Jasper grunted in agreement.

They all heard the door opened, knowing that Alice had come home. They heard Edward dropping her off and speeding away towards Bella's house. A second later, Alice joined them in the living room. She took a seat between Jasper and Emmett.

"I had another vision of Victoria during lunch today," Alice informed them.

Everyone turned their attention away from the tv to the pixie haired vampire.

"And?" Rosalie raised an eyebrow. "What else?"

"I saw her running through the woods. Probably making up her decision to kill Bella," Alice grimaced. "Edward said that he will take care of it."

"How?" Esme asked, worried about her son's girlfriend's safety.

Alice glanced at the flat screen in the living room. "He said that he is going to mention the tickets to see Renée to Charlie. It won't be easy, but Charlie will let them go anyways."

"That will be an interesting conversation to have," Ruby snickered, turning her attention to the news again.

Emmett chuckled. "Charlie is definitely going to yell at Edward."

"And little Eddie will be on his best behavior even if he is been yelled at," she chuckled quietly.

Esme chastised at both of her children. "Behave you two."

Ruby and Emmett shared one last smirk before they calmed down.

"Has that been the only vision you had of Victoria, Alice?" Carlisle asked the pixie haired vampire.

Alice nodded. "I was trying during classes to see if I can get another glimpse of her. But so far, there is nothing coming up. I'm having difficulty trying to locate where she is hiding."

"Maybe we should put a protective detail on Bella. For her and Charlie's safety," Esme turned to look at her husband.

"Why?" Rosalie frowned. "It would be just a waste of time."

Alice glared at the blonde. "Don't start."

"She's right," Ruby turned to look at Alice. "There is no point on doing one if Bella is not going to be here. You just said that Bella and my brother would be going to visit Renee. They will be miles away when Victoria comes back."

"We should focus on taking down Victoria," Emmett nodded in agreement with his sister. "With all of us there, she won't be able to escape."

"When they come back, we need to keep a closer watch on Bella," Alice shrugged. "Two of us could stay outside her house in case Victoria does manage to escape."

"She is not going to," Jasper wrapped his arm around his wife. He could feel the tension growing in the room.

"We should still keep a closer eye on Bella and Charlie," Esme turned to look at Carlisle.

Rosalie let out a frustrated sigh.

"Rose? Do you think you can take a look at my car? I think it needs some fixing to do," Ruby asked her blonde sister. Alice and Rosalie would fight for hours and no one was in the mood for that. It would have been entertaining to watch but now wasn't a good time. "I think something is wrong with the brakes."

Rosalie smiled knowingly at her, "Let me check it out."


"You should sell your car," Emmett took his eyes away from Rosalie, who was working on Ruby's car.

"Hell no!" The curly black haired vampire frowned at him. "That's my baby right there."

She turned her attention back to her car. Unlike the rest of her siblings, Ruby love classic cars. She only had one car and it was a beauty. It was a black 1969 Ford Mustang boss 429. It pained her that she couldn't drive it around Forks, since she was supposed to be away at college with Jasper, Rosalie, and Emmett.

The only ones that use her car were herself and Esme, when she needs to go get groceries. Her car was one of the very few possessions that she was really fond of. Her guitars came in second. Emmett used to challenge her on races but stopped after he kept losing, since his Jeep wasn't fast enough.

"Sooner or later you will have to get a new one," Emmett smirked.

Ruby glared at him. "I prefer never."

"Can one of you pass me the wrench?" Rosalie asked from under the car, sticking out her arm.

Emmett swiftly passed the tool and turned back to look at Ruby. "Your car will end like Bella's."

Ruby hissed. "That truck was a lost cause before they gave it to her. You should be telling her to get a new truck."

Before he could respond, the three vampires heard the front door open. They were too involved in their conversation that they didn't hear Edward's car approaching the house. Edward's laughter bounced off the walls as him and Bella walked in the house.

"Ugh," Rosalie scrunched her nose upon hearing Bella's voice coming from the living room.

Ruby let out a small chuckle and rolled her eyes. "I'll tell her you said hi and sent her some of your love."

The blonde snarled at her dark haired sister. Emmett let out a laugh as Ruby exited the garage. It was a good thing Alice and Jasper went out hunting or the pixie haired vampire would have picked a fight with Rosalie over her manners towards Bella.

She entered the living room in the second floor and smiled at her brother and his girlfriend. "Alice told us about the graduation party."

An hour after her, Emmett and Rosalie were in the garage, Alice had told them about planning a graduation party. Rosalie wasn't thrilled with the plan. But Emmett and Ruby were. It would be nice to have a party for Bella and her classmates. Carlisle and Esme thought it would be a good idea, since it would take the disappearances out of the teenagers' mind, even if it was only for a couple of hours.

"She did?" Bella winced.

"Well, you know Alice," the wavy dark haired vampire shrugged. "I would be surprised if she didn't throw one at all. Expect lots of lights around the place."

"Where is she anyways?" Bella asked as she pushed some of her hair behind her ear.

"Hunting with Jasper. Rosalie and Emmett are working on my baby," Ruby winked at her.

Bella let out a chuckled, knowing to what the vampire was referring to. Soft footsteps approached the living room and Esme smiled warmly at Bella. She hugged the human and asked how her day was.

Ruby was distracted when her brother grasped her elbow. She frowned but followed him out to the balcony. Once outside the balcony, Edward let go of his sister's elbow. He softly closed the door behind them, smiling softly at Bella and Esme. He turned around and noticed his older sister had hopped on the wooden railing and staring at him curiously.

"Has Alice had another vision on Victoria today?" Edward asked her as he walked towards her. He rested his elbows on the balcony railing close to where his sister was sitting, and leaned forward to gaze over the forest.

"No. She tried but no avail. It's frustrating her," she frowned. She looked up at the darkening sky and frowned. "Another human disappeared. This time a boy name Dean Connor."

"I know. I saw his name on the paper today," Edward grimaced. "I try to get Bella to change her mind about transforming."

"Let me guess…she told you to shove that idea up where the sun doesn't shine."

Edward frowned at his sister's smirk. "This is serious!"

"Well, you know that I voted no for Bella's transformation," Ruby shrugged. She felt eyes on them and glanced at the glass balcony door. She could see Esme staring at them with worry on her eyes. She smiled reassuringly at her before staring up at the sky again.

Ruby had voted for Bella's immortality when they all came back to Forks along with the rest of the Cullens. She voted a no on Bella. Not because she didn't like her but because just like Rosalie, dying as a human would have been a better alternative. She remembered the hurt on Bella's eyes even after she had explained on why she said no. "But you chose to stay with her, despite everything. It's her decision anyways, Eddie. She already has her mind set to it. She is as stubborn as you," Ruby said softly.

"Maybe taking her to Renee for the weekend will maybe change her mind," Edward sighed. "Or at least buy her some more time on being human."

"Or maybe you are just been overprotective and don't want Victoria to get near her," the eighteen year old rolled her golden eyes.

Her brother grunted.

"There are eight of us against one redhead vampire. I think we can manage to tear her apart."

Edward stayed quiet for a minute before speaking up again. "I just hope once Bella sees Renee it will change her mind about her been human."

Ruby snorted and hopped off the railing. "As if," she patted her brother on his back before walking back in the house, with Edward following behind.

"What are you two talking about?" Bella asked, with Esme's arm wrapped around her shoulders

The dark haired vampire just grinned at her before looking back at her brother. "Don't forget to take some sun block when you go to Florida."

Her brother rolled her eyes. "I'm going to be stuck inside all the time."

"But at least you and Bella might have some alone time if you know what I mean," she wiggled her eyebrows at her brother.

"Ruby Jane Cullen!" Esme gasped at her adoptive daughter.

Emmett's laugh was heard from the garage, having heard everything from the garage. Ruby smirked at her brother's annoyance and Bella's blushing face before dashing back to the garage to see if Rosalie had finished with her car.


"How much longer?" Emmett grumbled. His golden eyes scanned around the forest for any signs on the redhead.

"She will be here any moment," Alice whispered.

Ruby listened intently for any running footsteps. She could hear Emmett bouncing slightly on his feet in excitement. He had been impatient from the moment Alice had told them of the vision. They connected eyes and they smirked at each other. They have made a bet on who will get Victoria first. She would be lying to herself if she wasn't also excited to tear the redhead apart.

At least Laurent was taken care of by the pack, while they were away. Ruby remembered the disappointment in Jasper's and Emmett's face when they found out about his death. They had wanted to destroy Laurent when they learned he confronted Bella when she was alone.

"To your left!" Alice suddenly shouted.

All of the Cullens started to run towards the direction Alice had told them. Ruby and Emmett were in the lead of the group, followed by Jasper and Carlisle. Alice was a bit further in front of Rosalie and Esme.

"I'm going to win," Emmett winked at his sister before he started to run faster.

She huffed and watched him catching up to Victoria. She thought that he had the redhead until he was thrown to a tree.

"Stop!" Carlisle shouted when Victoria jumped the rocks and to the other side of the river.

They all saw two wolves come out of the trees and beginning to chase Victoria. Carlisle and the rest of the Cullens took off running after them in their side of the river. It didn't take long for the redhead to jump on their side again.

Jasper and Ruby shared a look when Victoria started to jump in zigzags on trees. They nodded at each other and did the same thing. She took a leap towards the redhead but Victoria managed to throw her to the ground. The dark haired vampire snarled and pushed herself off the ground.

"Are you okay?" Esme asked when she reached her daughter's side.

She nodded and they continue to run after the redhead. She noticed that Jasper was also thrown to the ground.

"I'm tired of this!" Emmett growled. "It's going to end now!"

"Emmett no!" Carlisle shouted when he saw Victoria taking a jump to the other side of the river again. "She is in their territory!"

Emmett decided to ignore the warning and followed Victoria to the other side. Before the big vampire could land on the rocks, a dark silvered wolf jumped out of the bushes, and threw Emmett to the river. A second later, Emmett resurfaced and snarled at the wolf.

The Cullens stopped and saw the conflict that was going to happened. Ruby took her eyes off her brother and the wolf, and started to scan the trees. Not far from the river, she noticed the red flaming hair of Victoria.

She saw the redhead vampire smirking at their direction. She narrowed her eyes and ran towards Victoria's direction. She heard the shouts of Esme and Carlisle telling her to stop but she chose to ignore them. She also didn't get far when a grey wolf jumped in front of her, blocking her way to get to Victoria.

She glared at the wolf before turning her attention back to the redhead. Victoria smirked at her again before dashing off to the forest, escaping. Ruby let out a frustrated snarl at the escape of the other vampire. The wolf must have misinterpreted her snarl towards Victoria.

One moment Ruby was glaring at Victoria, when suddenly, she was been thrown on her back in the river with the grey werewolf on top of her. The wolf let out a snarl and bared her teeth at the vampire. The dark haired vampire could hear the shouts from Esme and Rosalie under the water.

But before they could do anything, a growl was heard from the other side of the river. The grey wolf immediately got off Ruby but stood close. The vampire stood as well, not caring that she was wet from head to toe. Her eyes were on the grey wolf. She would not hesitate to punch the wolf if it attacked her again.

Rapid footsteps were heard with a gush of air and Esme stopped next to her. She grasped Ruby's arm and inspected her for any injury. "Are you alright?" Esme urgently asked.

"I'm fine," she reassured the motherly vampire without looking away from the wolf.

The smaller grey wolf snarled at Ruby, her stance ready to pounce again. Ruby returned the snarl, ignoring Esme's warning to back away. She could feel Esme trying to pull her away from the wolf but she didn't move. She will relax once the pack would leave.

"We didn't mean to cross over," Carlisle explained to the wolves, his eyes on Emmett and Ruby. "I apologize on the misunderstanding."

The black wolf shared a glance with one of its pack members. It glared back at Carlisle before letting out a growl. The black wolf started to head back to the line of trees and was followed by his pack except for two wolves.

The gray wolf and the dark silvered wolf kept baring their teeth to Emmett and Ruby. From the corner of her eyes, she could see her brother wanting to throw a punch at the wolf that was standing on the rocks. Rosalie, who was standing next to Emmett, was grasping his arm in order to stop him from doing anything else. Ruby kept her attention on the grey wolf, waiting to see if it was going to attack again.

The black wolf growled at the remaining wolves when he noticed they were not following him. It took a few seconds before both wolves started to retreat back with the rest of the pack.

Emmett let out a frustrated growl. "Is that it?"

"We can't do anything else at the moment. She managed to escape when we got distracted by the pack," Carlisle calmly explained Emmett.

Emmett punched one of the rocks in frustration and ran back home with Rosalie following behind.

"We should head back home," Carlisle softly said, not taking his eyes from the retreating pack. "I will inform Edward of the situation."

Ruby glanced down at herself and grimaced at her wet clothes.

"Let's go," Esme softly told the dark haired eighteen year old.

She glanced back to where Victoria had disappeared. She let out a frustrated snarl before following her family back to the house. Her brother is going to be furious of the redhead's escape.


So that's the first chapter. Let me know what you guys think so far of the story.
