Chapter 4: The Fight
Rosalie's POV
I froze when I heard footsteps in front of me.
I clutched onto Emmett.
A layer of fear washed over to me. Nomads. I loathed them.
Emmett was quivering violently on my back. "Shh. . ." I murmered.
I hissed at the 2 cat like figures in front of me.
"Hello." They said. "I'm James, and this is Victoria."
"What do you want?!" I yelled through my teeth.
I crouched down in my defence stance with Emmett still on my back.
"The boy. . . " The male hissed, crouching too.
"Fat chance." said Jasper from my right.
A horrified expression came on their faces. "We could smell him from miles away. He smells. . . Delicious. We cannot believe your wasting that child." said the female.
Her hair was the color of fire, blowing wildly in the wind. She was wearing black pants, and a furry white throw over her back.
I yelled in anger that they even thought of doing anything to him.
"The boys with us." said Carlisle, trying to keep us all grounded.
"A human? With you? Are you absurd? Humans are not for be friending. There our prey!" James yelled, clearly very thirsty.
James hair was tied back with leather. He was wearing rugged jeans and no t shirt underneath his black, worn jacket.
I heard Edward growl from behind me. He nostrils were flaring, eyes dark.
I looked back at him, but then remembered little Emmett, sobbing on my back.
"Shh. . . "I whispered.
"Stop! Please!" yelled Emmett, then burying his head into my tear soaked jacket.
"Hmm. . . Interesting." said Victoria.
I growled.
"You won't hurt him!" I yelled.
"Oh we won't. . ."said James, glaring back at Victoria with a impish smile.
James wrapped his arm around Victoria, and storked off into the forest.
I didn't trust them.
I looked back at Edward's worried face.
"Edward. . ." Esme asked hesitantly, too scared to finish.
" James is a. . ." He stopped, closing his eyes. "A tracker. He's going to hunt Emmett.. Until he gets him. He's never gonna stop!"
We all stood frozen. "NO!" I yelled bringing Emmett to my front.
"Hunt me?" said Emmett. He face was red, and tear stained.
Esme ran over to us, and stroked Little Emmett's face. "Everything going to be ok Little Emmett. Nobody's going to lay a single finger on you. We'll keep you safe. I promise."
I looked over at Jasper, Bella, Edward, Alice and Carlisle. They were stunned.
"We have to leave. Now." said Alice, breaking out of her trance and pulling us up by the shirts.
"Alice?" I asked, confused.
"She's right. We have to run!" yelled Edward, leaping forward.
I picked Emmett up and held him close to me. He was sobbing into my blouse.
"Oh Baby. . ." I said, really feeling his pain.
We sprinted back to my comfortable, and we all squashed uncomfortably into it. But we didn't care.
The high way seemed long, and endless. I became quickly impatient.
"Ah!" I yelled in frustration.
Esme rubbed my back soothingly. Bella held Emmett in her arms in the back seat.
"Alice what did you see?" I asked Alice frantically, when we got back to the house.
"I saw Emmett. . . Alone. He was behind a tree."
We could have playing! That doesn't mean anything.
"I don't understand!" said Carlisle, pacing across the room.
"Rose. . .You weren't playing. He was hiding. . .From. . . James." said Edward, annoyed.
Emmett had fell asleep in Bella's arms.
"Well we've avoided that." said Carlisle, relieved.
"No we haven't. . ." said Alice, looking down.
Huh? I had started to relax when Carlisle said that.
Alice gasped from across the room. She grabbed the table when she tuned back in.
We all jumped up from our seats.
"Rose. . . You were up against a tree," said Alice, not wanting to continue. "He slammed you into a tree, torturing Emmett.. James knows you mean a lot to him."
I growled in fury.
"Who would do that to a child?" said Esme.
"A monster!" I yelled, grasping on a wooden chair for support.
I felt like I was heading deep into a black hole.
Not because I was going to be hurt, but because Emmett was going to be suffering.
"You have got to be kidding." said Jasper.
"Well what do we do?" asked Bella.
"The only thing we can do. We have to rip him and her apart, then burn the pieces." said Jasper.
I saw Carlisle grimace at the thought of killing any creature. Even a sadistic one like James.
"Well what do we do in the mean time? Sit around and wait? I'm sure none of us would stand for that." said Edward, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"We have to trap him somehow," said Esme. "Hmm. . ."
"How about we just find that son of a-" I said between my teeth.
"Rosalie! Language." Esme scolded me.
I've never been good at controlling my rage. Especially not now. You'd think in my many years I would have learnt. Fighting was also one of my many charaistics. I didn't stop till I got what I wanted.
"If we find them , then they'll know we're coming. We have to use the element of surprise." said Carlisle.
I heard a change of breathing pattern. I looked around the room, then stopped at Alice.
She was looking forward in a trance like way, eyes bulging.
Jasper ran over to her, grabbing her shoulders as she nearly fell to the ground.
"Oh no Alice what?" I whispered frantically.
Alice swallowed loudly and buried her face in her hands. "I think there's been a change of plan." Alice quivered, staring at Emmett.
I ran to Emmett, holding his face in my hands.
"What change of plan?!" I yelled.
"We have to go!" yelled Edward, grabbing Bella, then myself, and everyone else.
"What why?" I asked, scared.
"James, Victoria, they were going to brake through that window in. . 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" Edward yelled. But we were far from the house now.
What are these stupid vampires? Trying to take on all of us after they broke through that window. They must be newborns.
"Your right you know." said Edward, while running next to me.
I heard a frustrated roar from the house.
What has the world come too? Oh yeah. Crazy, blood thirsty, stupid Vampires.
We sped toward's the forest, and reached there in seconds. Running is definatley faster then cars.
"What are we going to do now?" asked Esme nervously.
"They've left the house now. James is going to head east to look for us. Again. In experienced newborns." Edward said, looking at me.
"I suppose we should go back then. We have to repair the window sometime. Soon." said Carlisle.
I went to Bella and grabbed Emmett off her. He was still fast asleep. I cradled him comfortably in my arms.
Then I remembered Alice last vision. The one she never told us about.
"Alice. . .What was your last vision?" I asked, pulling her back so we had fully stopped.
"Now don't get mad." said Alice, her voice breaking. "I saw James' teeth inches from Emmett's neck."
No way. How dare they. "NO!"
No one else was around anymore. They were already at the house.
I grabbed a tree for support, holding Emmett uncomfortably in my arm.
His little eyes snapped open as he nearly tumbled to the ground.
"Crap." I murmered, claiming a comfortable hold on him.
"What's happening Rosie?" asked Emmett sleepily.
I was about to open my mouth when I heard a crashing sound. Alice was gone.
"Alice!" I yelled, watching as my sister flew across the small meadow, and into a tree.
Victoria's red hair was blowing as she pressed Alice into the mossy tree.
Where's James?
I ran for Alice and Victoria, when James jumped from the branch above.
"Ah!" I screamed, clutching Emmett to my chest.
"Hello Rosalie and Emmett." he hissed stroking my chin.
I growled feriously at him.
"Don't touch me." I said through my teeth.
"Ok." he said, putting his hands up in surrender.
I tried to look behind him at Alice. Her and Victoria were glaring at each.
Alice's vision. This was it. The forest. Me pressed up to a tree-
My thoughts were broken as James grabbed my neck, and threw me half way across the meadow.
Emmett flew out of my arms, sobbing. I tried to crawl to him, but was too late.
"Oh I won't hurt him. . . Yet." said James, smiling at me.
I screamed in rage.
"If you touch him. . . I'll. . I'll. . ." I stuttered, trying to think of the right words.
James crouched next to me. I tried to get up. But he was stronger than me. He pinned me to the ground, and dragged me up the short way from the ground to the middle of the tree.
"I thought we'd have a little fun first." James murmered.
I bared my teeth at him, as he did to me.
I started snapping at him, my face inches his.
"You wanna kiss do you?" he said, coming even closer me. If that was possible.
This brought back a flood of human memories. Royce forcing me to the ground, while the others ripped my clothes off.
I cringed as he came closer and closer till his lips pressed to mine.
I was trying to kick him off me, but failed. I tried to pull my head back from his iron grip, but the tree was in the way.
"Your pretty." he said, pulling away from me.
Normally I would gladly accept a complement like that. But not today.
Then I remembered Emmett, the same time he did.
He was propped up against the tree, sobbing as he stared at me in pain.
I instantly remembered the torture art of the vision.
"Don't you dare!" I hissed at his sadistic face.
"Mmmm. . ." he said walking to Emmett.
I kicked off the tree and climbed onto his shoulders, as I tried to rip his head off.
Emmett's POV
I sat in constant agony as I watched Rosie being hurt.
I was so scared. I had never ever seen this before.
I sobbed into my hands as I watched not only Rosie, but Alice. She was winning her fight. But Rosie wasn't.
No no no no no.
I noticed Rosie jump onto to James ' back. What's she doing?
That's when I saw Alice rip off the ladie's arms and legs. Ew.
"Little Emmett! " a worried voice yelled from the field.
"Alice!" I knew it was Jasper. He ran to get fire wood, and was back in seconds.
I started to cry when Rose, Edward, Esme and Carlisle all fought to over power James.
