Chapter 6:

Liz:

It's been a week since the run in with James and Alex. Emmett has gotten a little reckless, playing pranks on Jasper and Edward. I helped on some of the pranks because they were minor. Emmett went too far. He taped Jasper playing with a doll everyone was laughing but my sister and I. All I was thinking was "I'm scared for life and so is my sister. Edward stop laughing, its not funny, it's scary." When no one stopped laughing and Alice slapped him I went over to Jazz and brought him to my tree house.

"It's alright Jasper. I didn't think it was funny either."

"I know. You were scared out of your mind."

"It sucks that you can read emotions."

"It sticks that you can read minds like Edward and can shield me."

"I can also see the future past Alice's ability! Don't go too far with the pay back, alright?"

"Alright, but you might want to tell Alice that."

A month later, Alice called a Truth or Dare game. Alice and Jasper dared Emmett to do something and the next thing I knew I saw Emmett walking down the hall in Alice's clothes. I followed them downstairs and Emmett convinced Esme he was lesbian. I felt the same feeling that I did when Emmett showed that video to the family. When Em headed for his truck I ran after him, nobody stopped me because they were laughing so hard and Bella was taking a nap.

"Emmett head to my tree house, I have a pair of your clothes there." Just then my other siblings came outside. I cut Alice off before she could stop me from her "brilliant" dare. "GOOD! All of you are out here. My tree house. NOW!" When we got there, including Bella and the adults, I started by addressing Jasper. "You said you wouldn't let it go too far." then to Alice, "I told you also but you didn't listen. Now apologize to Esme and Emmett!"

"NO! Emmett was getting what he deserved and you butted in to it." Alice told me.

"Why do you think I have the adults here. To punish you Alice. I knew that this was your idea and now I will let Carlisle have the floor for a few minutes to discuss you punishment. Carlisle."

"Alice, even if you do apologize you are deprived from your shopping rights, credit card rights and choosing your own clothes."

"What?" Alice shrieked.

"Bella or Lizzie will choose your clothes that you will wear every day for a six month period. Also you won't be able to shop freely for those six months."

"You are in so much trouble missy."

"Threatening will only extend the punishment. So will attacking and anything like that. You can only go shopping if your sisters are going and you don't get to decide on what they are getting." said Esme.

"But Esme, Carlisle, what about Jasper?"

"You made him do it against his will but he will have to be locked in a room and listen to It's a Small World for 48 hours." I said

"What? That is the most annoying song there is. Didn't you get that from NCIS?"

"Maybe and you would be able to stand 24 hours but 48 is totally not bearable. Also we will hear it the vampires because of your strong hearing and my sister and I when we walk past the room." there was a uncomfortable silence. "Alright, time for you to apologize to at least Esme."

"Sorry Esme. Sorry Emmett." said Jasper.

"Sorry Esme. Not sorry Emmett." said Alice

"One more thing. I have to be there if you decide to play Truth or Dare. So the dares are appropriate for the younger people in this family. Meeting over."

Alice:

This is so unfair. I was just trying to get back at Emmett for my Jazz and not I don't have a wallet, credit cards, and I won't have a decent outfit!

"Oh calm down Alice. I could've made it worse." the devil of the Earth Lizzy said.

"Shut up!"

"Alice be nice. It was funny but not appropriate for Lizzy or Bella. She is right we could have all added what we thought we needed to say to you. You would be grounded for 12 years if we spoke up but we didn't."

I completely ignored them all after that.

Esme:

That was a good family meeting. I think all of the others were glad to see Alice finally getting punished for once. Apparently they must have been driving them crazy, having them be late only because of her clothes.

"Esme, you don't know the half of it." Edward and Lizzy said.

Point taken.

Jasper:

Oh no. No. No. My punishment is hard not to imagine bad. And to think, she probably got it from Michael Weatherly's character Tony DiNozzo.

"HEY! I can hear your thoughts Jazz." she said.

"Sorry, just mad about what's coming to me." More like furious.

Edward:

"Wow Liz! I know that took guts."

"No not really."

"WHAT?"

"I haven't been around Alice as long as you so it didn't take that much. I know that Victoria and Megan will come after me and my sister. Did you pay any attention to their thoughts?"

"No."

"They are going after your mate Bella and Emmett's mate me. I mean mate as in British best mate."

"Good thing you're around."

"Lizzy could you...." Rosalie started.

"Can't you see that we are in the middle of a very important conversation?" she said

"No you two were just staring at each other and nodding."

"Exactly!"

"What were you thinking Lizzie?"

"Jake will be a werewolf soon. When will you be moving again?"

"Uh... June why?"

"When you move can Bella and I stay behind until Halloween? Please!"

"Who will you stay with."

"The wolves. We can trick Megan and Victoria to make them think that we were left alone, and unprotected."

"You can stay behind but not Bella."

"But Edward I can tell Esme that you were involved in that prank and you would have to do the same thing that Jasper is. Also I'll call if we are going to do something dangerous. Don't tell Alice but her punishment is only two months."

"Really?" Alice asked

"Really.I just wanted to see how you would react to not having your precious credit cards for six long months."

"Alright your sister and you can stay behind. Go explain it to her."

"Don't need to, She was listening in."

"Hi Bella. Did she..."

"No I added the British mate on there for a reason. Oh and she said hi back. I'm not going to be in the middle of this conversation."

"Bye Liz."

When that was over Bella and I went over to my new piano and I played the lullaby that I wrote for Bella but it puts her and her sister to sleep. When I was done, Bella was sound asleep on my lap. I brought her up to her room and on her bed. Then left the room quietly to play Twister with my brothers and Liz.
