A/N: Well, this is a story that just popped into my head and I'm having major writers block regarding my other stories and I'm thinking if I write this down, then maybe I'll be able to write more on my other stories…Hmm..

Well, this story takes place in Breaking Dawn, (If you haven't read Breaking Dawn…don't read this one… It will go into a lot of detail that's in the books, and I don't want to ruin anything for you!) when Irena sees Jake, Bella and Renesmee in the forest and she goes to the Volturi and the Volturi come. It will probably be written in many POV's but I haven't decided that yet.

Here goes…

Disclaimer: The fabulous Stephenie Meyer owns Twilight…not me! BTW: I took this chapter pretty liberally from Breaking Dawn, changing a couple things here and there. By no means trying to infringe on any copyrights or anything! Anything twilight is owned by Stephenie Meyer! I own nothing…except maybe the new character that I'm going to bring in. Hee! Hee!

Summary:

Seeing Reason.

Ever wonder what happened to Alice and Jasper when they left in Breaking Dawn? This is my take on their adventures during that time.


Chapter one: The vision.

(Alice POV)

I moved slowly around the room, unnecessarily tiding our immaculate home. I sighed as I noticed Esme's garland hanging slightly lower on one side of the wall and stretched up to pull the one side a fraction of an inch to even them out. I could hear everyone else talking, excited on our trip to South America to search for legends of half-human, half-vampire children, hoping that we could learn something…anything about what to expect with Renessmee. Carlisle had friends that lived in the Amazon and if we could find them they might have information. Or at least a suggestion as to where else we could go for answers. It was unlikely that the three Amazon vampires had anything to do with the legends of vampire hybrids themselves as they were all female, but it was worth a shot.

I laughed silently to myself as I overheard Emmett and Jasper planning various hunting possibilities, like Jaguars and Panthers. Emmett also wanted to try and wrestle with an anaconda. I also listened to Esme and Rosalie planning on what they would pack as I headed over to re-center Esme's vases that seemed a bit off sitting on the console.

As always, I was still worried about Irina. Edward had wanted me to keep tabs on her, and that's what I was doing at the moment. Trying to search in her future. My eyes drifted in and out of focus as I searched, although it was hard to see anything with the mutts and Renesmee in the way of my visions. Jasper's soft voice broke through my concentration for a fraction of a second.

"Let it go, Alice. She's not our concern."

It wasn't until I felt Jasper's ability fill the room, that I scowled at him. I turned and stuck my tongue out at him, Jasper laughing at the guesture, before lifting a crystal vase and turned towards the kitchen. I could see the smallest hint of wilting and I was just had to fix it. It had to be perfect. Unfortunately I didn't make it to the kitchen. I gasped as a vision slammed into me, the shock of it causing the crystal vase to slip from my firm grasp, exploding into ten thousand diamond like shards. Images flooded my mind and I froze, hardly able to comprehend what I was seeing. I thought I heard a sharp intake of breath as I continued watching the horrifying images plaguing my mind.

"What?" I heard the strained voice of my husband extremely close to me. Even with my vision, I felt his familiar touch wrapping around my arms, I felt my body shake, as I assumed that Jasper was trying to break me out of my vision, when I heard him ask again. "What, Alice?"

I spoke the same time that Edward did, "They're coming for us…All of them."

"Who?"

"The Volturi." I explained the same time Edward spoke, again.

"All of them."

"Why?" I whispered to myself. "How?"

"When?" I heard Edward whisper.

"Why?" Esme echoed.

"When?" Jasper's strained voice, begged.

I searched further, searching, until I saw what I needed to, "Not long. A little more than a month."

"They must want to see.." Carlisle started before I interrupted.

"This isn't about Bella." I noticed my voice sounded hollow, and that only seemed to stress everyone else out more. "They're all coming-Aro, Cauis, Marcus, every member of the guard, even the wives."

"The wives never leave the tower. Not ever. Not during the southern rebellion. Not when the romainians tried to overthrow them. Not even when they were hunting the Immortal children. Never." Jasper contradicted.

"But WHY?" Carlisle said frustrated. "We've done nothing! What could we have possibly done to bring this down on us?"

"Go back, Alice." Jasper urged, "Look for the trigger. Search."

"It came out of nowhere, Jazz. I wasn't looking for them, or even for us. I was just looking for Irina…." My voice trailed off as I realized what happened. "It was Irina…She decided to go to them."

"Can we stop her?" Jazz asked, his voice pleading.

"No. She's almost there." I stated blinking out of my vision and looking at the scared faces of my family. It was Bella's voice that caught my attention.

"Think of what she saw that afternoon. To someone who lost a mother because of the immortal children, what would Renesmee look like?"

Suddenly it clicked. Irina thought we created an immortal child, a child that would create havoc, virtually unreasonable. That is why Irina went to the Volturi. It was a long moment before anyone else said anything.

"We've got to show them that they are wrong!" Bella pleaded, huddled over her daughter.

I could hear Edward whispering softly to his wife, "They won't wait for us to show them that."

Her voice spoke a second later. It was soft, but firm. "What can we do?"

My arms wrapped around Jaspers body, pulling him closer to me. I needed to be with him, feel his gentle touch, burying my face in his chest, Jasper's soft voice whispering to me, trying to reassure me that everything was going to be okay, but failing. I didn't want to think about the consequences of Irina's actions. What would happen to my precious Jazz? I would never be able to forgive myself if anything happened to him. I could barely register anything else, other than my beautiful husband when I heard Emmett.

"We'll fight."

"We can't win." Jasper contradicted.

"We can't run, either. Not with Demetri around." He paused as if thinking something over in his head. "You know. We don't have to fight alone."

"No. No wolves. They are not going to die too." Bella snapped back at him, a small spark of her newborn anger lacing her words and I felt Jazz's arms tighten slightly around me.

"Think about it, though, Bella. Do you think Jacob or Sam would ignore an invasion? Even if it wasn't about Nessie? I was thinking more along the lines of our other friends." Emmett explained calmly.

"We won't sentence our friends to the same fate as us." Carlisle interrupted. " I won't allow it."

"We'll let them decide." Emmett continued, trying to convince us of another option. "I'm not saying that they will have to fight with us…If they would just stand beside us, just long enough to make the Volturi hesitate…then maybe, just maybe, they will allow us to explain."

"You've got a point, Emmett. All we need is for them to pause for just a moment. Just long enough to stop and listen." Esme agreed.

"We'll need a lot of witnesses." Rosalie scoffed.

I nodded in agreement. It would take a lot, to get the Volturi to stop and listen. "We'll have to ask just right. They will have to be shown very carefully."

"Shown?" Jasper asked me. I pulled slightly out of his embrace, yet still touching him, while I searched for our future, ignoring him.

"Tanya's family…Siobhan's coven. Amun's. Some of the nomads-Garrett and Mary for certain. Maybe Alistair." I spoke, seeing our friends faces in my mind.

"What about Peter and Charolotte?" Jasper asked, his voice held a hint of fear, that I didn't understand.

"Maybe." I answered him.

"What about the Amazons? Kachiri, Zafrina, and Senna?" Carlisle asked. I searched for them, struggling to see, but couldn't. I blinked as I came out of my vision, and shook my head slowly.

"I can't see. But we have to split up and hurry. Round up whomever you can and get them here to show them." I spoke, my eyes moving out of focus again. "Ask Eleazar. There is more to this than just an immortal child."

I paused as my vision was suddenly wiped from my mind. Damn. Jacob must be on his way.

"Jake's coming." I called when Edward asked about what I was trying to see. I lowered my voice, quiet enough so only Jazz would hear. " We've got to hurry."

"I'll deal with Jake." Rosalie scoffed and took a step towards the door.

"No. Let him come." I grabbed Jasper's hand and began to tug him towards the backdoor. "I need to go. I need to see, and I can't see if I'm around Jake or Nessie. Come on, Jasper. There's no time to waste!" He followed quickly, confused just as Edward was. I turned and yelled through the house as we took off. "Hurry! You've got to find them all!"

I pulled Jasper through the dense forest as we ran crisscrossing our trail, trying to buy our time. I slowed to a stop, Jasper stopping with me, his eyes confused.

"What's wrong, Alice?"

"I need to do something for Bella." I quietly explained. "It will only take a minute. Wait for me here."

I didn't wait for him to respond, and broke away from him, running full out straight to Edward and Bella's cottage, stopping just long enough to unlock the door. I grabbed Bella's copy of 'The Merchant Of Venice', and tore a page from it. I quickly scribbled a quick goodbye on the torn page and wrote a familiar name inside the cover of the book before replacing it where it had been and bolted from the house, the torn page still in my hand.

It only took me a matter of seconds to return to Jasper, and the two of us headed off towards the treaty line.

"Where are we going?" Jasper asked quietly, his voice concerned, as he held my hand in his as we ran.

"We need to go to the Amazonians. And to see Peter and Charlotte." I explained as we approached the treaty line stopping just on our edge. Waiting.

"I hate that we have to leave like this." Jasper spoke after a minute, sighing. I pulled him closer and brought his lips to mine briefly.

"I know. But we have to. It's the only way." I assured him, bringing a small hand up to his cheek, stopping for a moment before snaking my hand around his neck and pulling him closer to me. I broke away from him as I could hear the sounds of the wolves approaching. Sam, a dark toned, black haired man came out from the trees and approached us wearing nothing but a pair of shorts. Two giant wolves flanked him on either side.

"I heard that two bloodsuckers were standing by the treaty line…what do you want?" Sam sneered.

"Sam, please. We need to get to the ocean as quickly as possible. Would you allow us to cross your lands? We don't have much time." I begged.

Sam's dark brown eyes flashed between the two of us. "Alright. I'll lead you there."

"Thank you, Sam." I thanked and together Jasper crossed the treaty line, following Sam as we walked. It was only a few minutes into our journey that I talked to Sam again.

"As you know, more of our kind are coming to Forks," I eased into the conversation.

"I'm well aware of that." Sam confirmed, still walking at a quickened pace.

"I need you to do something for me. It's very important. All our lives are depending on it." I stressed, as we got nearer to the ocean front.

"And you want me to do what, exactly?"

"It is extremely important that you do not tell Jacob that you've seen either one of us until you talk to the rest of the Cullens. Wait for them at the treaty line, where they will eventually come looking for us, and give them this." I explained as we reached the edge of the ocean, shoving the torn page that I had ripped from Bella's book into Sam's hands.

"When they read this, they will not understand. You must tell them NOT to look for us, and follow the directions I have given them. Do you understand?" Sam nodded his head at her instruction and shoved the paper in the pocket of his shorts. "Thank you, again, Sam." I turned and dove into the water, Jasper was right behind me as we both broke through the water and began swimming. I only hoped that we would be able to do everything that we needed to do in the short amount of time that we had.
