Alice sat there in the stunned silence that followed just looking at the screen as memories entered her mind. She remembered the hurtful battles, the pain of losing so many. She could taste death in her mouth and smell the distinct smell of burning flesh. She could hear the screams of people dying; caught up in a war they had no way to fight against.
She could feel the heat of fire on her cold flesh, the self-loath that came with leading her friends to there deaths. She could taste the salt of tears in her mouth as she mourned the loss of those she thought of as family.
"Alice?" Jasper asked breaking her out of her memories as she turned pain filled eyes on him. He sent calming, love filled waves of emotions towards his mate who sent him a small smile.
"I remember, I remember fighting for years. I was the leader, more people turned to me than Albus Dumbledore and it pissed him off. I remember talking with Ron and Mione about the possibility of him betraying us. We never actually thought he would go through with it, but we did prepare for it. It was Mione's idea to broadcast our life; it was Ron who found the spells though. We decided that only someone whom didn't have evil intent and knew one of us could find it. I spelled it, adding on a memory restorative charm and a few others, just as a precaution.
"When it was over and the dark lord Voldemort laid dead at my feet Albus came over with a smile. I didn't trust him, and told him so on many occasions, but it was different this time. I knew he was up to something and I was right. He cast a spell on me, and the next thing I knew I was falling through time and space." Alice said with such a broken look that the others knew she would be crying if she could.
"What call are they talking about Alice?" Rose asked making her way to her sister and placing a perfectly manicured hand on her shoulder.
"We had a way to send messages during the war, a way to know who it came from and nobody could intercept it." Alice said with a smile as she looked at her family, a part of her was relieved that they were not horrified by the fact she was once a witch, and accepted her past.
"We would always accept you, your still Alice, no matter who you were before. You're still our beautiful, eccentric, clever Alice who gets on my last nerve on a purpose." Edward said hearing her thoughts.
"Are you going to contact them love?" Jasper asked softly sending Edward a thankful smile.
"They were my family when I didn't have one. They were my friends and stuck by my side when I needed them most. I have to contact them, see them if I can. Those two are cleaver and the Volturi need to be brought down, they sided with Voldemort in the war, and knew whom I was and didn't tell me. They hid my identity from me, and kept us out of England because I would have found out the truth. If any one can help us defeat them it is Ron and Mione." Alice said after a moment, her eyes showed determination.
"Not to mention Dumbledore needs to be dealt with and Ron and Mione both deserve to be there when I go after him." Alice said with a sly smile that showed just how serious she was.
"It will be nice to meet those who stood beside you when we weren't there." Esmay said with an encouraging smile. None of them would try and stop Alice from contacting the strangers who had fought beside her or tell her not to go after the Volturi; they would stand beside her decision.
A smile lit Alice's face as she walked outside, the others fallowing behind her, curious as to what she was about to do. With a smirk she closed her eyes and felt for the magic that had once coursed through her body. She prayed it was still there and would still answer to her call after so many years.
Her smirk broadened into a smile as her magic jumped to her finger tips. The air around her buzzed as the magic sang through her veins once again. Silently and wandlessly she cast her Patroni, The large stag burst forth.
"Across the pond you must travel
To find the hidden snitch;
It's hidden in a place of silver
Where Forks will line the door;
Do not linger for long
Or you'll miss the snitch
Let the games begin.
I've given you the clues to win."
Alice said in a sing song voice as the buck took off, gliding over the ground like a mist.
"Alice, what was that about?" Emmit asked with a small laugh.
"I've given them the clues they need to find me. The pond is the water between the U.S. and the U.K. In the game of Quidditch the Snitch is a small ball that the seeker must catch to win, that would indicate me, because in the war I was the most important person, the side that had me was most likely to win. Forks is the location and I told them to hurry or they'll miss us." Alice said with a sneaky smile and a wink as she went to her husband's arms.
As much as she loved her family she could not wait to see Ron and Mione again, she didn't doubt they would be on the first flight over when they heard the coded message. She just hoped they still loved her after so many years apart.
I thought someone was going to adopt this story, but they never got back to me, so I guess they changed there mind, not that I mind I like writing this story even though my updates are delayed.
Happy X-mas, and Merry New years to all my faithful and devoted readers.
