CHAPTER-1
ALICE'S P.O.V.
It was a moonless night and something about this night made me really nervous….as if something was coming….something…that would cause devastation and havoc among the human race. And then I had a vision:
Tall figures in dark cloaks were entering the territory of the werewolves. Their eyes reflected the color of blood, maybe they had just enjoyed a human kill, but one of them, in particular outshone them all, and didn't seem ordinary, because the moment they encountered their first enemy, Quil, all they had to do was stare him in the eye and suddenly the vivacious fellow was reduced to ashes.
The left me gasping and panting for breath even though we are not the kind that breathe.
Edward read my thoughts as usual, and Bella after scrutinizing both of our expressions starting prompting me to tell her what the situation was.
"What is it Alice? Tell me!"
"They aren't what we expected them to be…..one of them possesses immense powers that are enough to kill us all! Whoever it is, is better than Jane".
"That means their stronger", her tone seemed tense.
"Not all of them, just one of them, as I mentioned", maybe this statement would pacify her.
"But he's enough to kill all of us!", I guess I was wrong, Bella had her ways.
"Yes, but not if we get that 'one' to join our clan, before they do".
"What does that mean? That 'one' is not with the newborns?", she inquired
"Well, it soon will be, but not if we get to that 'one' first".
"Well, then we better be fast, Alice, can you track him down?", asked Edward
I shut my eyes tight and hoped to get 'his' exact location.
"20 miles away from our territory, and it's not a 'he', it's a 'she'. We better hurry up
cause in about 5 hours she'll be joining the enemy's army. Inform all the others and lets head towards our target.".
"Wait. We can't just go like this unprotected. She might just burn us down!", Edward was right, how could I have neglected that possibility!
"You're right! Wait let me look at her closely this time and find if there are any holes in her gift".
I closed my eyes and watched her closely.
"Found it! She has to have eye contact with the victim if she wants to burn him down, and once she gets it, there is nothing that can stop her, she is far better than Jane! We have to avoid contact with her eyes to stay safe".
"I'm coming with you!", said Bella.
"No Bella I don't think it's a good idea!", replied Edward.
"Well, I'm just not gonna sit here and relax while you guys are out there battling for my life! I mean, that's absurd!"
"I don't want to argue with you Bella, but this time I'm not going to let you get into danger! I'll do whatever it takes to protect you Bella, and this is not a battle, we are just going to negotiate with that newborn so that our team gets stronger", Edward sounded very authoritative, and I have to give him credit for that.
"But what about the eye contact stuff, what if Alice is wrong?", I couldn't believe Bella said that!
"She is never wrong Bella", Edward replied in a calmer voice.
"Are you sure Alice?", How could Bella let go of Edward without taking all the precautions?
"Absolutely", I was sure of it. This time I couldn't be wrong.
We informed all the others and raced towards the forest.
