章 71: Ch.71
(Matt Pov)
Now that Alice is pregnant I have to speed up several of my plans, the first influencing the Volturi to attack us and the city of supernaturals. Plus I'm not sure how to explain her pregnancy to others that don't know about the gods. With that in mind, Alice and I invited everyone over, for a dinner party to try to explain somehow that she has returned to a 'human' through some ritual that is extremely hard to prepare. Hopefully, that is a good enough explanation, then maybe tell them she is pregnant. As we are preparing the food for the party, Alice since turning into a goddess has returned her love for food, specifically baking.
As we all, including Thor and Astrid as she lives here since Jacob is her mate, Lucas remained in Sweden this time because his mate is there, are cooking together and messing around in the kitchen preparing for the dinner party. I'm contemplating how to speed up the fight with the Volturi, my best solution is to give a fake vision to the leaders of the Volturi. One that shows their downfall and deaths if the Cullens aren't destroyed, which in a way is still true. So as the others are cooking, I slip out of the room saying I need to use the bathroom, but Alice knows what I'm doing as we discussed it earlier. Once away from everyone I teleport to the Volturi while also changing my look to one of the elite guards. Once there I slowly make my way to Aro, then Marcus, and finally Caius, giving them each a fake vision. A few minutes later they called an emergency meeting, discussing how to attack the Cullens and to bring their army to attack us within the next few weeks.
The reason they are attacking soon as they know Alice's old powers, which have become extremely enhanced with her ascension, assuming she will have a vision of them attacking. Plus it will give them enough time to amass an army to what they would believe to be enough. This will give us enough time to gather our allies as well and easily destroy them. My only concern is the possibility of Chaos joining this fight, as Chaos follows no laws or rules. So I will have a few ice giants on standby in case the worst-case scenario happens and deal with the truth for everyone afterward if that should arise. Alice will have a 'vision' of them preparing to kill us at the dinner tonight in front of everyone, that way Carlisle and the others will believe it as true and prepare accordingly. Returning home I help finish up preparing for the dinner tonight, as we invited Jacob, Billy, Charlie, Eva, Carlisle, Esme, Bella, Edward, Sam, and Emily.
"Matt do you think it was a good idea to start the war so soon? I know you have plans you want to accomplish, but with my new abilities of foresight, I can see so many paths that could happen. Some of them turn terrible for us all after this war, very few are of us winning against Chaos," Alice says to me as we are alone in our room waiting for everyone to show up.
"You'd know better than me now, but all I can say is I'll do everything in my power to assure that you and our child will have a safe place to live," I say hugging her close to me and kissing her on her forehead.
"I know, I'm just scared of all the possible outcomes we may have to face soon," Alice says while we hug and sighs nervously.
"I am too, but I believe if we gather everyone who is connected to the gods under one city, then treaties and alliances are a very high chance. This would give us the very much-needed edge against Chaos, if we stand together we can win," I say as we both then hear everyone showing up outside slowly.
Walking downstairs we see Charlie, Eva, Jacob, and Billy have arrived with everyone talking downstairs. Eva looks like she will give birth in the next two months, as she is around seven months pregnant, so march roughly. Jacob already heard about the truth behind Alice from Astrid, so he understands her drastic changes, but Eva looks over surprised. Before she can say anything the rest of the people we invited walk in and all said hello to everyone before seeing Alice's changes as well.
"Alice...what....what the hell, are you human again?" Edward says asking the question on everyone's mind, making Charlie, Billy, and Emily now look her over again since they didn't tell the difference right away as they are humans.
"Uh, yeah. While Matt and I were on our honeymoon we discovered this old and difficult ritual that can turn a vampire back into a human. You keep your powers too, which is cool. Though the success rate is less than one percent, with failure resulting in death, but it worked see!," Alice says before I can respond saying some things that make the others look at us with disbelief and anger for doing something that could have killed her.
"Are you crazy! What would either have you done if Alice died?!" Esme says in anger hearing that her daughter could have almost died. Walking over to Alice and pulling her into an angry, but motherly hug.
"Matt would've killed himself and Alice would be dead, so not sure what she could do?" Thor says nonchalantly taking a swig of his flask. Esme shoots him an angry glare, as I shake my head at Thor's obvious statement to a rhetorical question.
"On a happier note, I'm pregnant!" Alice says causing Charlie to choke on his drink at hearing her and everyone who didn't know stare in disbelief and happiness. Though I can see the small jealousy in Rosalie's eyes, it quickly disappears for her love of Alice.
"Really?!" Esme says with a look of pure joy, as Alice nods her head.
"We're going to be grandparents!" Esme says giving Alice another hug and laughing happily while Charlie is still coughing.
"Why are you so surprised? Well, I guess your gonna be a dad again soon and now a grandfather soon after," Billy says patting Charlie on the back and laughing as Charlie sighs with Eva chuckling.
"It's only a matter of time before you'll become a grandparent too!" Charlie says snipping back at Billy, now Astrid and Jacob are very embarrassed with red faces.
"One can dream," Billy says with a laugh and everyone else laughs too, much to Astrid and Jacob's annoyance.
With everyone else congratulating us and we then head to the dining room for dinner, once we all finish eating, Alice has her 'vision'. She then explains to everyone what we saw, now making everyone nervous, except for the few battle-crazed like Thor, Emmett, Jasper, and Eva even though she won't be able to fight.
"This is not good, I will need to contact everyone who I know is against the Volturi and hope they join us in the fight against them," Carlisle says with a thoughtful look.
"I will call my father and tell him we need at least half the shifters for a battle with them," Eva says hearing Carlisle's statement, who gives her and me a grateful nod.
"I will speak with the elders and convince them to join this fight, as we did with you before. This time they will have to agree since both our allies are involved and if they don't," Billy says giving Sam and Jacob a look, which they both nod to.
"I'll gather the wolves to fight regardless of the decision, plus a few more have changed since you left Matt, Leah turned too," Sam says and turns to me.
"With all these groups we should have enough to fight them, we will need to destroy them since Alice's vision are rarely wrong. They want to wipe us out, so it's either them or us. Plus we can replace them with an actual group of leaders, but we can discuss that when the time comes," I say and everyone is thinking about what I said, but then nod agreeing with my statement.
After the dinner and discussion about what to do for the coming weeks, everyone returned to their homes. Though once everyone leaves, I ask everyone who lives with me to talk about the future. Luckily Astrid left with Jacob to spend the night with him, so I don't need to worry about her asking to become a god. Not that I wouldn't ascend her, but unlike Chaos I follow the laws of the universe, meaning only a select few can I personally help ascend. I have already chosen the ones I will help ascend, Emmett, Rosalie, Edythe, and Jasper. Once they all gather in the living room, they look at me curious about what I want to talk about.
"Like I said you all can become gods and I will help each of you ascend, but only after this fight since I may not get too involved in it. Then afterward will show you how to ascend, once you do we will need your help in the coming war with Chaos. Plus I can only help a few people ascend and I have chosen you all as the ones I will help, so please don't mention this to anyone else," I say to them and sigh as the war with Chaos has so many uncertainties.
"Thanks Matt, as we said earlier we will stand with you both to the end, regardless of being gods or not," Emmett says with a serious look for once and everyone else nods their heads in agreement.
"I love you guys!" Alice says smiling at everyone and starting a group hug. Thor slightly drunk stumbles in seeing us having a group hug.
"HEY! Why does no one ever invite me?!" Thor says rushing over and tackling us all in a group hug. I pull Alice out of the way, as Thor tackles everyone to the ground.
"You drunk fat bastard! This is why!" Rosalie says annoyed and pushes Thor off of them.
"That was not nice! I'm not that fat! I just have what the mortals call a 'beer belly' it shows how well I can handle my drinks!" Thor says with a proud smile and smacks his stomach in response, which makes him burp and fart at the same time.
"Shit, came out both ends, my bad," Thor says while all the Cullens are gagging except Emmett who is laughing with Thor.
"We need to find Thor a wife who can turn his drunken ass around," I say with a sigh, knowing that Thor was married in the mythologies in my other life, but not here.
"Who'd marry that animal?" Rosalie says while looking at Thor in disgust.
"You married an animal too!" Thor says referring to Emmett, who just laughs and shrugs off the insult.
Seeing the arguments flying around and the bickering that is now happening, I grab Alice by the waist and teleport us to our room.
"Couldn't take the bickering much longer, plus I just want to hold my wife in peace," I say as I pull her into bed and hold her close, making her laugh and snuggle into me.
"I missed the crazy when we were in Jotunheim," Alice says smiling at how her family is, we can still hear the argument downstairs.
"True I guess in its own way, it is our version of peace," I say with a chuckle.
"We should invite Thor to live with us in Jotunheim!" Alice says making me stop laughing and stare at her in disbelief.
"I love Thor and all, but I'd strangle him if I had to deal with him every day for eternity," I say and she laughs at my statement.
"Just a thought," Alice says as we just cuddle the rest of the night in relative peace, as everyone downstairs argues the rest of the night.
