Chapter 4 – They're coming back.
"Alice, we must have got Cal about a hundred dresses" I moaned.
"Well she can have six more" Alice chuckled, handing me a mountain of clothes. I reached out and grabbed them, and felt like my arms were about to drop off.
"There isn't six here, and what is this?" I asked, pulling out a top that sad 'naughty boy!'
"Oh, that's for Jazz" she said, not even slightly embarrassed.
"Oh, okay" I said, blushing.
"Awhh, she's gorgeous! How old is she?" a woman said, reaching to touch Callie's face.
"She's...Um..." I stuttered. I'd rarely been out with Callie where humans were, and I didn't have anyone ask how old she is, I couldn't exactly tell her Callie's real age.
"She's a year old next week, that's why we're shopping" Alice said, smiling.
"Oh, okay. Well, she's adorable" the woman replied, cooing at Callie.
I just stood there; someone could think my two month old daughter was basically a year old?
"Don't worry" Alice whispered in a low enough tone for only me to hear.
"Well I best be going back to my husband, he hates shopping as it is. Your daughter is gorgeous by the way, adorable" she said to Alice, I think she could feel that me and Alice were tense, especially me.
"Don't I look like a mom now?" I muttered to myself, upset.
"Callie, your physical age is only 16" Alice reassured me.
TOM POV.
Someone had to be manipulating Alice's powers.
But who? Who could actually stop, or manipulate them?
I thought for a moment. My father? The pack?
Well, my father wouldn't. He was away with Kristen some where up north, and he wouldn't do that anyway, would he?
I automatically picked up my phone, and dialled my father's number. After two rings he picked up.
"Hello Tom, what's the matter? Is Callie and Ness okay?" he asked, sounding worried.
"They're fine. I was just wondering, do you know who could manipulate Alice's visions?" I blurted out.
"Son, why are you asking me this? And to answer your question, no I don't, and it wasn't me either" he replied, he obviously knew what I meant.
"Oh, Okay" I replied slowly.
"Is that all you wanted?" he asked.
"Yeah, see ya dad. Say hey to Kristen too" I replied.
"Okay, bye kiddo" he replied then hung up.
The only people left to manipulate Alice's visions were the pack now, but that couldn't be possible. The pack, apart from Seth, had stayed in La Push, they rarely shape shifted anymore; Seth had moved to Vancouver with a new love interest.
Then there's Jacob. But he wouldn't be able to come over here, he'd been in Volturi prison for almost six years, he hasn't been out yet.
The phone rang, and it caught me off guard, I was lost in my thoughts. I answered.
"TOM. I NEED YOU TELL JASPER, EDWARD AND CARLISLE SOMETHING. IMMEDIATELY" Alice shouted down the phone, in distress and anger.
"What's happened? Are Ness and Callie okay!" I replied, worried.
"They're fine, they are at the toilets. Just...I've had a vision.... You have to go tell them I've had a vision, and you can't tell Renesmee. Promise me Tom?" she begged.
"Yeah... I ... I promise" I replied, stuttering.
"The Volturi are coming, well only a few. But I don't know why. It goes blank, but I can see Aro and Hannah." She said, almost in tears.
"Okay, I'll go tell them now" I said, hanging up and running outside, towards the Cullen's house.
Edward answered the door, "hey Tom. What's up?" he said cheerfully.
"Alice...Alice" I said, exhausted from running so fast.
"Alice has had a vision. The Volturi are coming. Aro and Hannah." I stuttered....
