WARNING! THIS IS A FILLER CHAPTER, WHICH MEANS IT WILL BE SHORT, BUT I PROMISE THE NEXT ONE WON'T BE!

A/N: I'm so so so so so so so so so so so soooooooo sorry everyone. I really wanted this to be a longer chapter, but as life would have it, it won't be. My younger brother, Mason, who was diagnosed with Leukemia last year just (and when I mean just, I mean today) had a relapse, and I need to be offline for a while. I hope you all can forgive me. I feel so bad for not delivering like I promised.

The reason I wrote this was to 1.) Tell you all why I've been busy (I'm also in college so it's a little difficult especially being in another country) and 2.) To give you all something rather than nothing.

I hope you enjoy, and again I'm so sorry. :(

- The Exiled Queen


Bella moved as far away from the house as she could get. She didn't want the Denali's overhearing her conversation. Especially when she was discussing such delicate information as this. It wasn't that she didn't trust the Denali's, which to be frank she didn't, but it was just that the less they knew the better. Especially when this information could cause them to be in danger, and Bella would be damned if she would let her imprint be in danger because of her. Finally when Bella perceived she was far enough away. She pulled out her phone, and dialed the one number she didn't think she would call anytime soon. A couple of moments of dial tone later a silky voice answered the phone.

"Isabella, what's the matter?" The voice asked with worry, and Bella couldn't help but chuckle.

"Why must you always assume something's wrong when I call you?" Bella asked with laughter in her tone.

"Well is there trouble?" The voice asked, and Bella could practically see the smirk through the phone.

"Fine you win this time, but next time I'll get the best of you," Bella said with a smile, and was rewarded with a soft chuckle. Before what she had to talk about next dawned on her, and she sighed heavily. "Now for the unpleasant part. You know about the job assignment I was assigned to?" Bella asked, and all she got in response was a hum of recollection. "Right, so apparently the resident vampires of Denali believed it is either a vampire creating a newborn army or that it's the Children of the Moon." Bella trailed off after that, and she could hear the faint growling on the other end.

"Both of these issues are very problematic. How sure are they?"

"They're very sure," Bella replied.

"Then there's only one option," the voice said, and Bella immediately frowned.

"What is it?" She asked, and once again she heard a soft chuckle on the other end.

"The only option my dear, sweet Isabella is that I'm coming to help," at those words Bella felt her whole face light up like kid on Christmas.

"Are you serious?" Bella asked with giddiness in her tone. She knew that this problem was severe, and that she shouldn't be this happy, but her other best friend was coming. Bella had never been so excited.

"Of course I am sweet Bella. Now I must be going I need to get a few things in order before I go. Goodbye Isabella, and when I get there you need to make sure you fill me in on what has transpired."

"Of course," Bella said with a soft smile.

"Then I will see you soon Isabella. Goodbye."

"See you soon, goodbye Caius," Bella responded and after a moment was met with the dial tone. Bella smiled before turning her head back towards the house. She had no idea what she was getting herself into, and if her choice was the right one, but as she was running back towards the house.

She couldn't help but hope it was the right one.
