*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Jasper POV*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I stood next to Alice at the foot of Carlisle's Bed. Our hands intertwined softly, but so very tightly. Everyone was so tense I dare not play with their emotions, I decided to think back to what had happened in the last half an hour that we had disappeared in, mainly for Ed's sake, but also so I could get my head around what had happened.

Carlisle lay, even paler than usual, if that was possible, motionless. He's my father, I can't loose him. I watched Alice and Edward exchange a nod before she span dragging me with her and started sprinting from the house, she let go of my hand, knowing id catch up in no time. We ran. The wind blowing back in our faces, spat rain would have felt like ice daggers to our skin, but I could hardly feel them at all. I was so determined to get to where ever Alice was running to I completely ignored the sudden burning in my throat as we past a group and hikers and the one who had a bloody arm. It was then I heard what Alice was following. Pats. Pats on the forest floor. Not like Jakes and the other 'dogs', but like our own. We were following one of our own? Someone was out here, is this what Alice was seeing, Carlisle's tormentor?

She stopped sharply. I looked to her. She started again running off in the other direction, my concentration on her almost sent me, hurtling into a large oak, didn't want that to happen again. Emmet would never let it go. 'Do that again' he'd said 'and ill have to issue you a RUIA' of course I was blank on what the hell that had meant, Edward seemed to know naturally, and he'd laughed. 'Running Under the Influence of Alice' he'd finally enlightened me nearly a decade later.

Edward shot me an odd look, and smirked. Then turned his attention back to Alice.

Sorry…off track…We continued running, when suddenly Alice disappeared and the patting stopped, I could hear the one we were chasing, I crouched protectively in a bush out of sight, the strange thing was, I could hear a heart beat, but not like Bella's had once been, nor like Neisse's was . It was the slowest beat I'd ever heard, like a slow tap dripping. Like it skipped every 7 beat. It got louder gradually. They were behind me. They had to be Vampire, there was not way it was a wolf. I turned to see the runner about to jump on me when Alice leapt from the bush slightly farther away from where I was perched, pulling the person from the air and sending them both crashing to the floor.

Alice stood straightening her self and brushing of any mud or grass she'd acquired in her leap. The leap that was so strong, yet so graceful. The runner lay on the floor, what seemed like for ages, when suddenly they started coughing. The sun broke though the canopy and lit the forest around us making the small clearing more visible. We looked at the runners who sat before us, in a heap. Her blond hair glistened in the sunlight Alice knelt down in front and the runner looked up. She looked to Alice pleading.

"Don't hurt me…please; I came to help you, to warn you… please…" She looked like she was on the verge of tears.

Fire burned in my throat. What was she doing there…wait.. warn us about what?

"Warn us about what?" I growled walking towards Alice, clenching my fists. What did she want?

"Jazz, don't." she hissed, Jeez what had I done?

"Who are you?" i asked her, grtting my teeth, and pushing my hair from my face.

The girl span round from her position to look both of us in the eyes. She looked nervous. "

I'm Jessica, Well Jess" She sounded concerned "I'm 18, well technically I'm 35…I'm from England originally, but I was on holiday in Italy with my parents about 17 years ago when we were offered a tour of the most glorious palace I'd ever seen, then I just remember waking up in a room, with this really ghostly guy with black hair, it was Aro. He told me what had happened and the power I had, he wanted me to lure people to their deaths, so he could…yeah you know… I did for a while, but I just couldn't take it after a few years,, knowing this had happened to me, but I'd escaped death, and they wouldn't, so I ran, I found you guys."

"Pardon?" I said again grtting my teeth.

"I saw you with Carlisle. Aro had spoken of Carlisle and the powers he had held in his coven, and he sent me to retrieve them…"

I couldn't contiain my anger anymore, she was helping Aro ruin our family, again. I pounced on Jess, pinning her down to the floor, anger raging through the hole of my body.

"What makes you think you can split our family" I growled. "What makes you so special?"

"I make people forget." She looked away from me .She wriggled, and tried to throw me off. "I'm still half human, I can walk around in sun, Aro doesn't know why I am what I am, but he wanted Carlisle's gift so to say, his knowledge and you others merely to add to his collection, me making you all forget who you were and the way you lived by, would…would help him…and the others...Esme, Rosalie and Emmet...he would have killed...He's using Carlisle as bait."

"What's Happening to Carlisle!?" I shouted as she squirmed in my grip.

" Aro has many of us hidden, with many gifts, my younger brother being his favourite, looking much like Aro himself, both driven by power and the need to be in control, my brother has the ability to 'curse' others, to give them illness, to kill them."

"HOW DID HE DO THIS?" I roared, some brat was killing Carlisle.

"He poisoned a deer that Carlisle hunted… Carlisle wouldnt have known, the smell wouldn't have been affected" She said paniced. She looked into my eyes. I looked into hers, I was suddenly filled with guilt, she'd come to help surely. I let go off her and jumped back. "I was there with him when he did it, I didn't want him to, so I ran. Aro does it because he knows Carlisle will seek access to the library, thousands of years of our history, he knows you'd play right into his hands...wanting the best for your family, he's using your strenght as a unit, as a weakness."

I looked down at her as tears streamed down her pale cheeks. She was truley ashamed of what she had done.

"Jasper she's telling the truth." Alice said as we helped her up.

"Come back with us. Please" I said as Alice said took her hand.

We all sprinted back. When we arrived back at the house we left Jess with the newly arrived Emmet and left to tell the others.

Edward nodded as Alice too finished telling the story. We all looked to Carlisle as he sat shocked. We still weren't sure, what was wrong with Carlisle, but now we had to Jess to help.

Esme ran to Carlisle's side, and gripped his hand, he sat up, using all the strength he had grunting. He kissed her forehead. Wincing, tears streaming down his face. We all felt the same stomach dropping, heart stopping jolt.

"Te quiero Esme, tú eres mi angel, mi alma, mi corazón y mi vida."

I looked to Edward confused, as well as the others. We'd all taken French or German at the schools. What does that mean Ed?

"Their wedding vows were in Spanish, Carlisle had gone to Spain with her a week before so they adapted the vows at the last minute. He said 'I love you Esme, you are my angel, my soul, my heart and my life."

We all knew how much this was tearing them apart. He kissed her once more, I could feel he was using all his strength and it tore me apart, I gripped Alice's hand tighter, I'd never live with out her.

She gripped his face, shock covered her own. "Carlisle…" she stumbled over the word. " What colour we're your eyes when you were human?"

"Blue…I remember because my father would tell me how they were so much like my mothers. Why?"

"Oh my darling…no" she sighed, nuzzling into his neck.

"Whats happened?" Carlisle asked us all searching our faces for answers, but getting shock. "Edward…what has your mother seen?"

"We all can see it Carlisle" He replied. "Your eyes are blue…"
