Don't Own Twilight but…. I do own the new People Magazine Eclipse addition!
Chapter 3- Discovering Fate
I ran and ran, not sure of where I was going. As long as I did not have to see the hurt that I caused my family. I am not sure how far I ran before I fell to the forest floor and let the dry sobs rack my body.
I cannot believe that I tried to attack Bella. Edwards mate, our sister, Carlisle and Esme daughter. I don't even know what came over me. I have never wanted blood like I did in that moment. We have been around humans for years and I have felt all of their blood lust before. But this time it was over whelming. Like an unknown force was controlling me. I have turned back into the monster that I once was with Maria.
Suddenly I felt a presence beside me. From the emotions I could tell whoever it was did not mean me any harm. Actually his emotions confused me. Fatherly love and pride were flowing from him to me. I know that this not Carlisle his scent told me so. I did know this scent though; I just could not place where I knew it from.
Curiosity got the best of me and I slowly turned around and faced him. He was a huge man, at least two times bigger than Emmett. His long blonde hair hung loses around his shoulders, his bright blue eyes shined with love. I did not even need to read his emotions to know the love and pride shined in his eyes for me. A small smile played on his lisps. I knew he was letting me take him in and see if he was a threat to me. It was like he knew what I needed, only like a father would and me.
"Wh...o arre you?" I stuttered out very un-vampire like.
"Well isn't that a loaded question?" He chuckled.
"I have been called many names, but my most common name is Zeus The Ruler of Mount Olympus."
"Right….. and what would Zeus want with me?. I am nothing but a monster! I cannot even retrain my blood lust and tried to drain my sister. So if you are this mighty god what would you want with me." I growled out at him. What is the point of this why is he here. I know that he is who he says he is, but why is he here.
"Jasper I have known you before you were even born into this world as a human. You son are not a monster, there are things going on that is out of our control and for that I am truly sorry. All the pain and guilt that you have carried around for all of these years, I would take it away if I could. It has been so hard for me to sit back and allow some of thing happen but it has made you into who you are today, and for that I am grateful." He is grateful that I have lived a life that I have hated, I have killed innocent people and innocent vampires for my own gain and he is proud. I really do not understand this man. He is wrapping me in his love and pride, is he a killer too. None of those stories that I read ever described him as that. So why me, why love me, why would he be proud of the man that I have become? "No father should ever have to watch his children go through some of the things I have seen the two of you go through." I could feel the pain and guilt flow from him like he was pushing it towards me. But just like before there was always the underlying emotion of fatherly love.
Did he just say father and children as he was referring to me? What the hell is this man getting at?
"You are projecting Jasper. I know that you are confused and have many questions, and I will do my best to answer as many as I can. I feel fatherly love for you because you are my son and yes I said children I have a total of eight that is including you and Isabella." Isabella? " You see my bond with you and Isabella is much stronger than the others. And that is because I created the two of you myself." Once again I was hit with honesty, pride and fatherly love. I had no other option than to believe him. For once I believed in someone besides Alice. And it felt good to believe in him, like it was right. I felt like he would never let me down. That I would not let him down. I knew that I could do any thing as long as I knew he believed in me.
"Yes son I believe in you, I am the one that should be honoured to call you my son. You truly have become a wonderful man. I have always believed in you and never once have you let me down. I knew what kind of world you were going to be thrown in and I was well aware of the things you were going to have to do before I even created you. I had help to prepare my self for the hardship that I was going to have to endure, by allowing those thing to happen. But looking at you now I know that is was the right thing to do. But I have much more to tell you and I believe that wife of yours is getting a little anxious." He laughed a little with the mention of Alice and I felt his fatherly love for her too. Hmm I wonder where that is from, if he know her?
"Son there is a great threat coming to our worlds, both the human and the mythical. The only way to stop it was for me to create Isabella and you from my self. Each of you were given gift form your family. Which you both will discover when the time is right." Is he saying that there is another war coming, because I am not sure I can handle another war? I will lose my self to monster if I have to fight again, I could not do that to Alice. He must understand that I cannot risk that.
"Jasper son calm down, you will not turn into a monster and you will not risk Alice. She and Isabella are your strength. Alice would never leave you, she has always watched over your even before you knew of her. She has always been your protector." I knew that he was telling me the truth his emotions were so pure. I have only met one other person with emotions this pure, and I tried to drain her. Bella. Isabella is what he called my sister. It would make since if she was he daughter they have the same emotions. Oh God if I am right I tried to drain my sister. Shit, Shit, Shit.
"Isabella as in Edwards Bella?" I asked with a fresh wave of sobs.
"Edwards Bella, no she was never his. He was to bring her into your world so she could fulfil her destiny. If she were to belong to any one I would have to say it would be Alice. Since she raised the both of you and has kept a constant watch over her." He said. The pride and thankfulness he felt towards my Ali was astonishing.
"My Ali knew of this? How long has she known of this?" I knew I should not have been shocked that she knew of this. Of course she knew it was Alice we were talking about and she know everything.
"Yes son she knew, she knew of this plan even before I. It was her that had cared and watched over the two of you over the years. She is the only one that I trusted with you both." He said with sincerity.
My body with out my knowledge scooted closer to him and my head was lying on his shoulder like a little boy would do with is father. It was nice I have not had this feeling in over 15o years and I didn't even know that I was missing it until now. My mind was still swimming with all of the information that has been given to me. I needed to find my sister and make sure that she is ok and that she dose in deed forgive me. I am not sure I could live with my self if she did not. I could feel my father's nerves pick up and I knew that it was time to start talking about the up coming threat. I wish that I did not have to meet him under these circumstances, but at least I know now that I will always have my father.
"There are some things I need to instruct you on before it is my time to go." He looked deep in my eyes to make sure that I understood how important this was. I nodded my head for him to continue. "I want you to remember that Edward will forgive you, no matter what he says now it is just out of anger. But never forget that this had to happen." He said as he pulled me closer to him. " Back to business, the first thing that I need you to understand is just because someone in the past said that you are to be enemies does not mean the same for the future. Second we cannot help who we destined to be with, we are a family and we need to look at the person's heart and not what they are. You need to leave for Greece as soon as you can, your sister will meet you there when her time has come. Alice already has everything ready for your departure. Remember I am never far and I will always be here for you. I am so proud of the man that you have become." He hugged me tighter and kissed me forehead. And with that he was gone as quick as he came.
I sat there looking around trying to confirm that this just happened and that I am not losing my mind. Ha I would be the first vampire thrown into the nut house. But I am damn positive that it was not a dream, because I do not sleep. It was real all of it, I tried to eat my sister and then I met our father. How is it that I am going to stand by my sister side and fight to save the world when I lung at her when the smallest drop of blood.
How was it that just a few months ago I was in a room covered in her blood and I did not have any bloodlust? 'Because this is what had to happen.' I knew that was the truth. I might not have know it at the time when I was lunging for her throat, but I know it now and have to have faith in my sister that she will forgive me.
"Jaz, baby what are you doing out here? You have been out here for hours, the family has been worried about you." Alice, my angel said to me as she sat next to me and laid her head on my shoulder.
"I met my father while I was out here." I said as I looked into her gold eyes.
"I am so sorry Jaz. I promise that I would have told you but then all of our hard work would have been a waste. I know that you feel guilty, but please believe me when I tell you that she loves you so much and she forgave you for this before it even happened." She said with tears in her eyes that she will never fall. I could feel her guilt for not trying to prevent this from happening, but underneath that were her determination.
I took both her hands in mine and brought each one to my mouth and placed a kiss on them. "I know Ali, this had to happen." I stared into her beautiful eyes, my angel always watching over me, even when I didn't know. "You ready for Greece?" I asked and flashed her a smirk.
"No the question is Greece ready for us?" She said as she took my hand and we ran back to our family to tell them our good byes. This was it, the moment that changes every thing and I can not wait!
