1. Vengeance Is

(RPOV)

I started fighting, too, my eyes trained on the five vampires circling Carlisle.

Crouched into a defensive position, Carlisle was being slowly backed into the dark doorway of a warehouse outbuilding. It was one against five, possibly eight or nine. Carlisle was a fairly good fighter, but even he couldn't beat those odds, especially not with the special powers these vampires had. The unnerving figure of Conner stood out prominently in the circle. I beat harder against the man holding me down, seeking a tender spot to hook my long nails into. I kicked out, catching the man in his chest. With a grunt of surprise, he was hurled back into the warehouse wall, and I sprang free.

There was a yelp of pain to my left. I spared one gaze, and saw, to my dismay, that Edward was being held by his throat four feet off the ground, the big redhead crunching him into the warehouse. Jasper was on the ground, massaging his head in a dazed way. He wasn't aware of what was going on around him yet. I paused in place, indecisive: should I help my brother?

"Go, Rose!" Edward said, around the fist that was choking him.

So I went.

With a barbaric shriek, I threw myself on the first vampire in the circle of five. That had been a stupid move-- it was Conner that I landed on. As fast as I could, I picked him up by his jacket and threw him, implementing every ounce of strength in my body. He sailed over the other's heads and came to rest at the edge of the riverbank. In spite of myself, I was impressed at my own prowess; that had been quite a throw.

I ploughed into the next man, the carpathian, Elek. He was more prepared than Conner, and instead of fighting me, he spread out his arms and caught me in a crushing embrace. We fell over from the momentum of my run, getting tangled up. Jonathon had me pinioned by my wrists as Elek extracted himself from our entanglement. "Now, you stay still, miss," said Jonathon in a friendly manner, ignoring my wild endeavors to free myself. "I'd hate to have to bury you."

Suddenly, Carlisle growled and lunged at one of the five men circling him. He ripped off the man's head and ran strait to us. He jumped on Elek's back and ripped off his head. I ran to Edward and ripped his captor into pieces.

We ran to Carlisle where his was helping Jasper to his feet. Adelaide had caught up to us and lunged for Carlisle. He threw Jasper at me and I caught him in my arms. Carlisle hit Adelaide with as much force as he could muster up. She went flying into a wall, but recovered quickly.

"Go! Find the others, make sure they are safe! Before it's too la.." Carlisle was suddenly flying through the air finally hitting a wall with a SMACK! I picked up Jasper and ran out the warehouse door with Edward. We ran across the field and met up with everyone else.

"Where's Carlisle? Where is he?" Esme screamed in my ear.

"Back at the warehouse. He told us to find you and say he loved you all." Edward replied. Esme's eyes grew wide and she started running with everyone else to the warehouse. I was afraid of what we would or wouldn't find.

Well, review people! Tell me what you think
