Hello fans! Thank you for all the awesome reviews and hits I've been getting for this story even though I haven't updated in a really long time... You all never cease to amaze me! So i came to the conclusion that all dedicated fans who have stuck with me through all these chapters, the good and the bad, diserve an ending to it! Yup that's right, this is the last chapter to Crime and Kidnapping. Even though this is the last chapter, it doesn't mean it has to be bad! I hope this story has a great ending! Well we'll just see about that one at the bottom!

As I walked the streets of Italy, dawns was just breaking on the horizon. The bright haze glimmered around the town and set shadows across the town. I walked and walked until I ended up in a square that had a fountain in the middle and a large clocktower towering over the space. I looked up at the entrance to what I instinctively knew as Volterria.

"Psst!" a woman's voice hissed from the shadows, "You can be serious about going in there, are you? Don't you know what lives in there?" I could see her outline in the darkness but not her features. She seemed to be tall, thin, and wearing a hood.

I nodded and replied, "They killed my best friends."

"Oh so this is either an act of revenge or suicide?"

"Both," I say shrugging my shoulders carelessly. The woman steps out of shadows allowing me to see what she looked like. Fair skin and gray looking eyes. Her hair was short, black, and curly. She was wearing a gray coat around her with a black pencil skirt and white blouse. Red lip-stick was coated across her thin lips.

"I like you," she said smiling at me, "and I think I can help you. That is as long as you can help me. Do we have a deal Isabella Swan?" She said extending her hand towards mine. I jumped back.

"How do you know my name?"

"You can change your hair all you like, but if you don't change you're physical features anyone can guess who you are. I saw you on the news."

"So you don't mind helping someone charged for attempted man slaughter on the loose?"

"Not as long as you help me. My name is Claire, come with me if you want to try and live." She stated turning on heal and walking through the allies and tunnels of Italy with me at her feet. At this point I didn't care about wheather or not she was trustworthy, I just wanted my friends back.

"Here we are," Muttered Claire opening a door what was embedded in the yellow painted cement walls. Inside seemed to be a little house. The colors were warm, consisting deep reds, dark oranges and relaxing browns. The walls were lined with abstract art and above us lanterns provided light.

"Now Bella before you go and do this go was out that ridiculous hair color, I have a bottle of color removal that should take it out. I'll get everything you'll need. The bathroom is right over there, first door on the left."

When I emerged from the bathroom with my short brown hair, Claire had a chest set up on the floor.

"Come sit." she waved me over opening what appeared to be a vampire killing kit. "Here's what I know: Inside those gates lives the Volturi, a very powerful vampire government I guess you could say. They dine on human blood only. Every three days they send a few of the humans who work for them or sometimes a vampire from their clan, out into the square and ask tourists if they'd like a 'tour' of the great civilization Volterria. Whoever goes in won't come out because as soon as the 'tour' is complete the Volturi attack. No one has ever made it out of there, except one. Me. Well two including you but this is my story. One day, I was out with my mother and sister when this man came up to us and asked if we would like a tour. He was so charming, how could we say no. We walked down the beautiful halls in the large group. There were families like mine, friends, couples. Soon we came to the place were the Volturi sat, and they just seemed so... dazzling. Then suddenly the calm atmosphere turned into chaos, these vampires launched themselves on to each person in that room. The screams of the victims still ring in my ears. I remember seeing the blood bath that spilled across the marble floor. The last thing I saw before I escaped was Aro, the leader of the Volturi grabbing my mom and attacking her, murdering her and my heart. Kim, my twin sister, had already been killed by Aro and was now a shriveled up pile of skin and bones on the floor. I screamed and wailed and cried for them, they couldn't be dead. I tried to convince myself I was dreaming, but it was all too real.

"Suddenly a pair of strong arms wrapped around mine and someone began to pull me out of the room at supernatural speed. I struggled against him, but he was too strong. I began to shiver rapidly, and at first I thought I was because I had been shaken by what just happened, but I was actually very cold. Vampires are freezing. He brought me back to the hotel I was staying in, and set me down on my bed. I then cried myself to sleep. When I woke up, I saw a note for me laying on the bed side table." Claire reached into her pocket and pulled out a note that read:

Dear Claire,

I am so sorry about your family. Rest assured you are save now. I have made arrangements for you to live here in the hotel with the mangager until you are 21. Things will be okay, things will get better. I must ask you though , never accept a tour offer here in Italy, and never come looking for the Volturi again.

Best of Luck,

Edward

"So I lived with the hotel manager, Peter and his family here at the hotel for a few years and life seemed to get better. But things turned sour three years ago, when I turned 18. His daughter, Marie, and I went to a club to celebrate my birthday. Well lets just say things got a little crazy when someone broke out the alcohol. Next thing I knew, I was waking up in bed at some random hotel with a naked Marie at my side. Yes Bella we had done it, but we were very drunk. Peter was furious that we broke curfew and didn't come home that night and seemed to think it was all my fault. As for Marie she didn't talk to me for weeks and things got more and more awkward between us. But because she shunned me from her life, it made me more curious. I wondered if I was a bisexual, I had several boyfriends before we can to Italy. So one night I went into to her room just to see what would happen. We began to kiss when her parents walked in and Marie began screaming something in Italian, her father turned to me shouting angrily at me, grabbing me and kicking me out of his house with my clothes and luggage thrown out behind me. I miserably stayed in the ally next to the house and cried not being able to think straight. Later that night Marie appeared on her balcony and begged for me to talk to her. The talk turned into her getting me to come in through the window and from there things got steamy. Let's just say that Peter kicked me out of his house like he did that evening only this time I was wearing nothing but the sheet I had managed to swipe off her bed as he dragged me away. The next day I was arrested and charged for sexual assult. I was livid with Marie, she had seduced me into doing it was was now pressing charges!

"The case was short but humilating. In the end I lost everything and spent 18 months in prison, it should have been longer but I was let out for good behavior. As much as I hate Marie for what she did, my grudge is with the vampires. If they weren't such blood thirsty monsters none of this would ever happen! I'd be back home! I'd have my family! I'd never would have had to dealt with any of this if they hadn't invited us in! I wanted revenge, I craved it. It was a crazy idea but I purchased a vampire killing kit off the internet. I wanted to storm in there and kill them all but then I remembered Edward and his note. So I hid the kit away until someone who had some what of the same problem wanted to get revenge as badly as I do came, and that's you. So Bella are you up for the challenge?"

"Hell yeah." Was my simple answer.

"Here's what you're going to do: At around noon someone from Volterria will come out and announce a tour. Make sure you get noticed and asked inside. Today's a feast day of Saint Mark I think, and everyone will be dressed in red hoods, so we'll dress you in white. The most eccential weapons you'll need are garlic, a crusifix, and a wooden stake. Come on, let's get you ready.

I stepped into the sqaure bare-foot to attract more attention. I was wearing a white strapless dress that brushed the top of my knees. It had simple white flowers in strands on it. Under it was both the wooden stake (that was tucked in the waist band and out the leg of my panties) and the crusifix resting against my heart. In my hair was a wreath woven with multi-colored flowers and concealing two cloves of garlic. In the sea of red cloaks I saw someone stand up on a box and announce a tour of Volterria. That was the man I was looking for. As I drew closer to him I remembered the last words Claire told me:

"Before you go," Claire said tucking away the last ball of garlic, "We have to discuss the matter of payment. I want you to take this stake," she said handing it to me, "And drive it through Aro's heart. Then kill whoever you want but spare Edward, he's a good man. But a word from the wise. You probably won't survive."

"I know."

"Good luck Isabella Swan."

I walked closer and closer to the man, "I'd like a tour sir!" He looked me up and down and a grin stretched across his face and before I knew it I was walking through the halls of Volterria, nearing the Volturi.

"Now ladies and gentleman," Felix our 'tour guide' said to us, "We are about to enter the room of the Volturi, please follow me!" I pretended to oooohhh and aaaahhh with the rest of the crowd, but I was a girl on a mission. The doors opened and the first thing I saw was Aro standing before us, smiling. Around them I saw the rest of the clan.

"Hello everyone, so nice of you to join us for dinner. I would like you to meet the newest members of our clan the Volturi: Alice and Rosalie. Girls would you like to start you're first meal?" I felt a sudden breeze rush pass me and then two figures were on the ground, a chubby man with Alice biting into him. The man's wife screamed in horror and suddenly Rosalie had knocked her to the ground.

"Alice! Rose! You're alive!" Was all I managed to scream before the Volturi attacked. I reached under my dress, tugged out the stake and made a bee-line for Aro. But the guy was quick, smacking me away with the flick of his wrist and causing me to fly through the air and hit the hard wall behind me. I could feel the bones shattering.

"Well, well, well. Isabella Swan, Alice told me you'd be coming today. Seeing into the future was a nice gift, don't you think." Aro said crouching down next to me

"You changed her!" I gasped, clutching my broken ribs.

"No Jasper did. So now- Hey! That tickles!" I had just managed to gather the last of my strength and stabbed him in the heart. Much to my dismay however he started giggling like a school girl as he removed it. "A wooden stake? I haven't seen one of these in ages. I'm guessing you just tried to kill me?"

"That was from Claire."

"Ahhh I remember Claire! Yes her Mum and Sis were delish! Hey! That Rhymes! Anywho you'll know how to kill a vampire soon enough, that is when we change you!" Before I could object Aro sunk his fangs into my neck and as the venom ran through my blood the fire within took me.

It hurt. It hurt so bad. It felt like my entire body was on fire. I wanted it all to end. I wanted to die. I let out a scream and thrashed around on the floor. It hurt. The pain was unbearable.

"Shhh, shhhh. Its okay Bella." Edward? And just like that the pain stopped and I opened my eyes. Sure enough Edward was kneeling next to me smiling with that cute crooked smile.

"How are you feeling." He asked.

"Thirsty." I croaked. I felt like I had a really bad sore throat.

"Don't worry, our next meal will be here in a few seconds." I smiled back at him. And just like that the large doors opened, the humans walked in, and I attacked.
