After the letter, Athena was in Volterra a week later with Stephen, when her brother met him was something intense because Alec glared at him and Stephen glared at him too, Jane tried to use her gift on him to threaten him, of course in those weeks they got to know each other more and could have a good friendship, the kings were somewhat eager to meet him after all his best jewel cannot be with anyone that is not worth it, Aro was excited to know about him since it was a new species, he had to say that as a father in more than one occasion he saw how true it was their love and he was happy with that, Caius well he was a special case he just keeps sending daggers with his eyes it took him around one and half week to say a word to him. Marcus was the only one that had been completely happy with them, of course, Thena was very happy to be a whole month in the place she called home. The others could see that she had changed and that was thanks to her mate, she when saw the twins gave them a huge smile and hug them every time, for the twins it was nice having the sister that was the sweetest, Thena smiled to Demetri and Felix, and the kings, it was weird for them but it was a nice seeing her happy, of course in the trials they were the witch triplets the nightmare of every vampire. Stephen in that time also took the chance to ask permission for him to ask Athena to marry him, he talk with the twins and Aro about that the three were surprised but happy that he did that it demonstrate how important she was to him and that he respects her family, of course, they give him their blessing, the one that took more work was Alec but he came around, at the end of the moth he was already part of the family. He couldn't see her in action that was something he wanted to see but he would wait.

Years later around 1945 Athena and Stephen got married, they choose to have two weddings one with the Cullens and the other with the Volturi, Athena changed so much in those years, she smiled at everyone in the family just them, when they were in public she didn't smile, she also starts hanging more and more with the others and make activities with just them and then do something has a family, Edward and Athena make the peace with the time again they came again there love-hate relationship, they went to high school when they changed of place, Emmett and Rosalie became the perfect couple with Athena and Stephen they were also the bad guy and bad girl of the place they were intimidating.

Athena one night that was together told them what happen to her to be the way she is, why is she this cold person toward humans and also other vampires, to say that there were surprised was nothing, Esme, Carlisle, Edward now understood better why she hates human that much and it they consider here the strongest in the house, maybe not physically but emotionally she became a better version of herself thanks to Stephen that speak and help Athena to let them enter her heart. When Rosalie found out how Thena was killed she destroy almost all of the house, and later it took her two weeks not to be around her all the time making sure she was safe. Of course, they knew she was still on the guard because she told them before and thanks that sometimes Demetri would come and took Thena to missions she could be out around 1 week or 3 maximum, those weeks weren't that happy in the house Stephen was worried and the majority of the time when she was not in the house he was in his wolf form.

It was now 1948 when Demetri and Felix came to their house in London one morning... The Cullen and Hale's were in different places of the house, Stephen and Emmett were in the backyard playing fights, Carlisle was in his office, Edward was playing the piano, and the girls were in the kitchen helping Esme to make food for Stephen, when there was nock in the door, Thena smelled the air and knew who they were so she said calmly also because she knew that they were listening -I'm going it's just Demetri and Felix- she speeds to the door and opened the boys were using her typical black clothes and their cape but it was their outfit to fight, she smiled but she saw their yes with a little bit of fear -What happen?- she asked -Master Aro calls for you, this is a life or death situation Athena, I never saw the masters that mad, not even with the Romanians -Demetri said

-He is right Master Caius is also mad, he destroy his room and the library, even Master Marcus had a worried face, they out more guards to the queens even -she frown her face that was not normal -I'm going give me five minutes I go change and say goodbye, come in you can wait for me in the living groom -they nod their heads and enter, they nod their heads to the other and for the first time they could meet Felix they only met Demetri, they were worried Aro never send two guards for her, it should be something bad for that. Stephen and Athena went to their room and he had to ask

-How long love?

-I don't know love, I think is pretty serious, Master Aro never send two of the elite guard for me, and you listen to what Felix said, I'm pretty sure is a bad sign.

-You need to fight beautiful, I don't know what would I do without you...I love you my beautiful beautiful Thena -she smiled at him and they kissed showing how much love they had for each other

-Be careful please, you are my everything -she smiled and kissed him again -I'm coming back to you love

They left their room with their hands together, when the other saw them they saw that she was wearing her outfit to fight, Rose if she could cry she would, she jump to hold her in her arms and start denying her head -You can't go, baby, I don't want to lose you -her voice came out breaking with every word, Athena hug her just as hard -I'm coming back Rose I promise -Rose dint want to let her go and Emmett had to take her, he smiled and give her a hug -Come back sister -he said to her kissed her on her temple, Esme and Carlisle algo hug her -You are coming home you understand its an order Athena -Esme said stenrly while hugging her and left a kiss on her forehead, Carlisle did the same, Edward was the last one and to surprise of everyone he hugged her and told her -This family needs you, sister, come back to us please -he loves Thena like a sister sometimes his proud dint let him say anything nice to her but after she told them her history and she let him see her mind while talking he was sure he will never mey anyone that strong like her, he wanted to be just like her at some point. Felix and Demetri were a little moved to see that they cared for her just like they do, of course, they care for her more.

They moved to the door and Athena and Stephen looked at each other saying how much they loved with their eyes, she turned around and they start running to Volterra, she needed to know what happen, and she was going to find out. While with Cullens they enter the house very worried so Carlisle had to ask

-Edward what did you read in their minds? It was that bad? -he nods his head

-The clothes that they were wearing were to fight that's how she knew that something was happening even before they told her, in Volterra every person is using that type of clothes, not elegant, I think there is going to be a fight soon, they are waiting the moment to strike-Stephen ran his hands over his hair in frustration, now he was more scared than ever for the love of his life

-You are telling me that, that my baby could die there?! -Rose exclaimed sobbing

-Carlisle what could be that bad that they need her there?

-The only things that I can imagine are immortal children or someone plotting against them

-The time that I was there, I could see how people were scared of the triplet, it would be idiots if they even tried something with them in the guard -The alpha said serious, he was not happy now knowing how a fight can break and her imprint will be in the middle -Even the ones that don't know her face to face with Athena feared her, Carlisle can agree with me that when Thena is in a trial no one goes close

-You're right, however, some just don't believe she is real, that's why she is Aro's hidden weapon -he sight- we can just hope that she gets back home

While now in Volterra getting from their trip, the three made her walk to the throne room, Athena under her hood and her face denoted anger, every vampire who saw her got out of her way, his now red eyes brought nothing good for who dared to get in his way, he entered the throne room with an emotionless face -Masters you called for me- she said doing a reverence

-Dear, thank God you are here, it looks like a fight will be soon -Aro explained

-There is a newborn army in London, their leader is one of Aro's long friends, looks like he thought that we can have our crown, and the worst part of this hell is that he create an immortal child, and intend that some vampires fight the witch triplets -the three of them let out a growl

-There is a time that we are leaving, or we are going to create a planned master Caius? -Thena asked now with black eyes, her master smirk already planning in his head

-We are planning in a month we are going to eliminate the threat, we need to create a strategy and also we are going to some places so you can have more gifts -she nods her head and goes to her place next to their brother and sister

-I also will send some invitations to other covens and vampires to have our witnesses, also I know that I don't need to remind anyone but I don't want that any of you have mercy -Aro said and demanded

-Yes master! -they said together

They prepared for a whole month, fighting, the practice of their gifts, training the low guard, also searching for evidence so they can act within the law, also they send a few guards to see the problem and report back, they knew that they had an immortal child and some newborns had gifts, Aro dint worried about that having Thena there and in radio, she will have them, she also has new gifts like the mind control, she also has another destructive gift disintegration she just has to touch something and it became nothing, she also adds a gift very important she had the gift of blocking, now any other gift could affect them. She had a little time to write Stephen about her being there for at least a month, what she didn't know was that the Cullens receive a letter from the Volturis inviting them to be witnesses. They keep training like there is no was tomorrow. When the day that they had to leave came, they were ready to fight.

A few weeks before in the Cullen house...

Rosalie was depressed in the living room trying to read that took her to worry away but she knew that was not going to happen she decided to check the mail, she got out to the front when she start seeing the letters he saw that there was one with the Volturi symbol she thought the worst and start running inside... -There is a letter of the Volturi's!!- she yelled, in a second the majority was there with her -Someone called Stephen to please- Carlile's asked, Emmett, left to find him, Stephen was in his wolf form running and hunting when he heard something approaching when he could smell Emmett scent he stops and when he turn to see him, his face was with worry -The Volturi's send a letter, we are waiting for you to read it -he took off running to the house with Emmett behind, when they enter the house now with him being in his human form -Open the letter Rose- Carlisle said, Rose read it but passed it to Carlisle, the others were on edge while he was reading it -What is it Carlisle, Athena is okay? Does something happen? -The alpha asked already thinking the worst

-It's fine, the Volturi's are asking if we want to be witnesses in a trial here in London, they are coming here in two weeks...

-Dear do you think that has something to do with Athena goin there? -Esme asked

-It would be the most logical answer, but I have to tell you their trials are not nice

-How are those trials, Carlisle? -Emmett asked with curiosity

-They depend on how Aro wants to play, it could be having the triplet torturing people, or doing it fast and to the point either way it doesn't end well for the other side, but always when they do something like this they have proof about the crime they always respect the law

-So we don't have to do anything? -Edward asked

-No, Aro wants witnesses so other covens and vampires see that they are doing their job and the law is being fulfilled...We have a few days to decide if you don't know your answer- Stephen, Emmett, and Rosalie look at each other saying that they go

-Carlisle the three of us are going, if something happens there I can protect her I know that Aro will not mind the help -the alpha answer with seriousness but is very firm in his decision

Carlisle nod her head, he turn around to face his wife and son -I will go dear, indeed, I don't like violence but since Athena got here the first two years was always with me and helping me and she took her time to know me and she protects me all the time, I own her that Carlisle being there for her I know that she feels that we judge her and it is true we did it at some point but I love her for being herself and that includes her sadistic side, and I know that the Volturi's are her family too- Esme said smiling to him, he turns to look at Edward -I go with you Carlisle

-Looks like all of you are going to meet Aro and the kings for the first time, let's prepare ourselves, well Stephen knows them already anything new son?

-No I think it's the same, you should know that Aro and Marcus have gifts, Aro can read every thought that you had before with the touch of his hand, and Marcus can see the relationships of others

-Stephen is right the most dangerous is Aro be careful in what you think, there is also Caius who doesn't have a gift but is the fighter of the three, please remember your education kids- they all nod their heads, Stephen was more relaxed now that he could be there in case of something happening.

On the day of the fight

The witnesses were at the beginning of a forest in black clothes waiting for the Volturi, the Cullens were together as a coven Carlisle and Esme in front with Stephen and Emmett at his sides, Edward Rosalie was behind them they could meet other vampires and talked for a bit, when they heard footsteps coming their way and when turn their heads they could see them in V formation coming their way. The Cullens could smell Thena's scent but could see her yet, they were worried for her, and at the same time because they were going to see her in action.

On the Volturi side when Athena reaches the radio for her to copy gifts she gained a few, she starts seeing them in her head they stop for a moment, the kings turn to see her, she was located between Jane and Alec but in front of them and behind the kings, she was the protector of Aro- Dear what are they gifts -he asked

-They are nothing to worry about master, is air control, manipulation of energy and change the appearance, the other's gifts are nothing compared to our gifts

-That is good to hear dear, let's go say hi to our friends, shall we? -they started walking again, Athena could smell Stephen and relax a bit, she also could smell the others, but she had her face blank without emotion and her eyes were like hell to others you could find any other emotion, when they reach the witnesses aro talked again

-My dear friends we appreciate that all of you are here to see that we are keeping the peace among us, please if you could stay hidden in the woods first, we have to eliminate first an army of newborns my guard is going to take care of that so do not fear, then we can continue with our trial, thank you.

They obey and start going to the woods at their speed, the Cullens couldn't see her there looks like they are going to wait... When they got to the sides Rose asked the question, that no one wanted to ask -Carlisle is there any way she could end up dead by these newborns? -I don't think so Rose, they are trained for this, I never saw her fight but everyone in the castle said that she was the best, no one could beat her- they could breathe better at this

-Aro is going to start talking, Caius and Athena decided that they were going to use their emotions against them, and if that doesn't work the fight begin, they are going to use them that is a fact -Edward said to them reading Aro's mind, at that Stephen change his position she was going to be in danger and he could do anything about that

The Volturi's make their entrance and took off their hods, they could notice now Athena she was behind him, her face was different than the one they are used to...

-Thena is reading their minds and she will act if she has to, her work is to bring the leader to the kings after they killed the newborns -Edward was telling them the plan of the Volturi -they are waiting that the others to make a move so they can start- not a second later a newborn charge at them and just like that he was on his knees they could see Jane using her gift, they saw how the kings move behind and they could see her clearly
