Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer #22

Things are getting very skeptical out in the field. Aro's brothers are not agreeing to let the Cullens free, honestly I believe they want to destroy them all. But something very unlikely for the Volturi has happened, they are outnumbered. This is causing great stress upon them so they must make a decision quickly before anything gets out of hand. They decide that Renesmee could be a big threat to the world, and that she can't live anymore. The whole Cullen family is furious by his decision and something happens that no one can explain. Bella's realizes her power of being able to shield everyone on her side. When she is angry and feels defensive she can put up her shield, which she finally mastered to do once they were in great danger. The Volturi was trying very hard to break her bindings but no one can. Jane and Alec from the Volturi side are trying really hard to find a crack in her shield but can't seem to find one. This puts the Cullens and their friends at a larger advantage. So will the Volturi break through her massive cover? Or will they be defeated once and for all? That would make everyone feel a lot better. I wonder what will happen!

Finally! The Volturi has come. They arrived with more people than they expected, and the three main leaders also brought their wives. Many of the Volturi possess supernatural powers, but so do some of the people on the Cullen's side. Once they came, they stopped about 100 yds away from the Cullens and their friends. Carlisle walked about half way and so did Aro, the head of the other vampires. They spoke for a bit, and Aro asked a few questions about the little girl, which he replied as saying go see her for yourself. So eventually he called up Renesmee and she has her special supernatural power of being able to communicate without talking, so just by touching Aro she was able to tell him her whole life story in excruciating detail. He was amazed, but his brothers weren't. They wanted to destroy Renesmee once and for all because they saw her as a threat to the real world, being half vampire-half mortal. Edward and Bella tried to explain the Aro that she is actually doing quite well in the real world and has been around multiple humans-causing no harm to any of them. So will the Volturi decide to kill Renemee? Or will they let her be free? I will have to read to find out!

I now have figured out how Renesmee is going to survive if a fight ends up happening. Bella found out that Alice had been leaving her clues about this one man named J. Jenks that she should visit, but she has no idea why or who this man is. She went to the adress of J. Jenks to find out that the location was in the "ghetto" and wondered why Alice would send her to a place like this. She ended up talking to someone and asking him about J.Jenks and the man said that she was not allowed to see him. Finally after many attempts, Bella told him her name, and he called J. Jenks asking if he knew a Bella Cullen. Jenks was so furious with the man because he never told him her name and had him send her to his legitimate office where they could meet. She met with him to figure out what she needed, he started off by asking if she needed passports, birth documents, etc. Then she understood; Alice was trying to help Renesmee if anything happened to herself of Edward. This really made Bella happy. She asked for all of the above, and even paid the man extra. They were to meet at a restaurant the next week. When they met he handed her the documents and other things and wished her the best of luck. She didn't have to explain herself because she was sure that if he knew the Cullens, he would know that they weren't exactly normal. So now I'm anxious for the Volturi to come and I hope they are understanding and listen to Edward, Bella, and Renesmee.

Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer #19

In the chapter that I am in, Bella is talking about how she doesn't know if she is ready for the Volturi to come. So many people are gathered in the Cullen's house ready for the Volturi to arrive. No one knows if they are going to be peaceful visit or a conflict will happen. Now there are about 13 people all together waiting the arrival of the Volturi. No one, besides the Romanians, want there to be a fight. The Volturi just have a big misunderstanding about Renesmee and think she is immortal and needs to be destroyed. The Volturi want whats best for the mortal world so that the two worlds don't collide, but the Cullens believe they won't listen to their point of view and that will be a problem when it comes time. Bella and Edward are prepared to fight, but what about Renesmee? Jacob can't possibly defend her all by himself. So what are they going to do?

Breaking Dawn #18

Once again, I didn't get much reading time in again because I've been pretty busy. Anyway, I am at the part where Alice and Jasper just ran away. They don't think it is safe for them because the Volturi (bad guys) are coming and they think it is the best to leave. One of the Volturi, Aro, would do anything to have Alice, but she would never again to joining their clan and never wants to be separated from Jasper, so everyone thinks that they left for fear of being separated. Before they left, they wrote the Cullens a letter saying, " Don't look for us. There isn't time to waste. Remember: Tanya, Siobhan, Amun, Alistair, all the nomads you can find. We'll seek out Peter and Charlotte on our way. We're so sorry that we have to leave you this way, with no goodbyes or explanations. It's the only way for us. We love you." (Meyer 558). In this passage, Jasper and Alice aren't giving them much to work with, but enough to know that something bad is coming their way. Alice can see the future, so she must have seen something coming. The reason she told them to remember about those certain people is because she wants them to round of friends and family members to help them when the Volturi come because they can not handle them alone, according to Alice. The part that I am at, Bella is trying to use her "power" to shield others besides herself. She is immune from any harm that other vampires put upon her, which is an amazing skill. She is trying to see if she can shield her whole family, but it makes her very tired and worn out. I wonder if she will eventually be able to do it.

Back to Breaking Dawn #17

I decided that I am going to start blogging again about Breaking Dawn because I took a break from the book, but now I really want to start reading and blogging again. So right now I am at the part where Bella is officially a newborn vampire and is just getting the hang of things. She had her baby and she named her Renesmee, which is a mix between Edward's mothers name (Esme) and Bella's mothers name (Renee). She thinks it suits her very well, and the baby seems to like it too. Renesmee has a special talent, which is being able to just touch someone and communicate with them without words. She can describe her feelings to that person or even tell her life story, sometimes she prefers this way of communicating instead of talking. Renesmee also is growing at a very fast pace, which is scaring her family. Everyone agrees that she is the most beautiful little girl they have ever seen. Right now, Bella is being taught how to fight incase anything were to ever happen, but Edward won't teach her how to fight because he is scared he might hurt her. Esme, Edward's mom, and Alice built Edward and Bella their own little cottage just a few miles from the main house. It is a sweet little bungalow and small just fit for a few people. Of course, Alice built in a extremely large closet for Bella because she thinks Bella needs to work on her wardrobe. There is also a cute little room fit for Renesmee and they describe it as the perfect little nursery. Alice's visions of the future and beginning to be more unclear, and I wonder why that is. I guess I will have to read more to find out!

Family In Aspen #16

I read a sad article about how a family of four in Denver were found dead at an Aspen home with high levels of carbon monoxide, the Pitkin County Sheriff's office said Saturday. Authorities said two adults, a man and a woman, along with a boy and a girl were found dead inside. The people have been identified as Parker Lofgren, 39, Caroline Lofgren, 42, and their children, Owen, 10, and Sophie, 8. The family was just visiting Aspen for a holiday weekend. Many people are shocked by their deaths and close friends and relatives both agree that it was very tragic. Sheriff spokeswoman Marie Munday said other Denver friends meeting the family at the house a few miles east of Aspen found them Friday evening, then called 911. A team of technicians determined the house's hot water and snow melting systems malfunctioned, which caused the very high levels of carbon monoxide in the house. Caroline Lofgren, was very involved with several charity boards, including Girls Incorporated of Metro Denver and the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, and also helped raise money for Historic Denver. "Caroline was a wonderful mother…and her quick wit, strength of character and glowing personality endearing her to many friends," Caroline's mother said. Parker Lofgren was a founding partner of the Denver-based St. Charles Capital, which was an investment bank. "He was a true friend socially and philanthropically to Denver, and we will dearly miss his vibrant smile and personality," Parker Lofgren parent's said.
