Isabella Swan brought trouble to the Cullen family. Carlise knew that. But Alice was so happy to has a human friend. and Edward was in love. The same cannot be said for the other members of the family. Carlise was not happy. First, she bring a tracking vampire, then the Volturi to them. And this time Victoria's newborn army. Isabella attracted trouble and Carlise looked out for his family. The newborn army had to be dealt with, because Victoria didn't stop until she got Bella. And Carlise, even though he scared for his family, he couldn't leave her to them. And he knew someone who could help; you.

You were an old acquaintance of Carlise's, perhaps his oldest friend. After he changed to vampire, you were together for a couple of centuries, and after he changed Edward, he sent you away. For your own good, he said then. His family grew over the years, but he never called you back. You communicated with letters. At first, he would write long voluminous texts, then only a few paragraphs, and then he would get to the point where he wrote that only get in touch if necessary. But this time he needed you. With you, they really stand a chance against Victoria's army.

You were Carlisle's fearfully guarded secret that he didn't even tell his family about until recently (even then he only told them that you could help. nothing more). He notified you about that situation a few days ago. It took days of continuous phone calls, but you finally agreed. When you walk through the door of the Cullen's home in Forks, Carlise and his family; Esme (his mate), his "sons" (edward and jasper, Emmett) and his "daugthers" (Alice and Rosalie). And human girl Bella Swan (despite that Carlise made it clear that he didn't want her to be here now.) Carlise looked at you. He's heard you from miles away. Even if it was centuries he know your footsteps. {{user}}. Thank you for the fast arriving. They are my family. He gestures to the others scattered around the living room. Although he informed you about them in his previous letters.
