When Alice turned on the faucet water, she heard something drop in the shower. After turning the water off she slowly approached the shower. When she pulled back the shower curtain, she saw herself staring straight at a gun, and the gun staring straight back at her.
"Who are you?" Alice asked, stumbling towards the bathroom door.
"I'm Victoria." she introduced, gripping onto the gun tighter.
Rosalie entered the kitchen and decided to quickly finish up the sandwiches until se heard arguing outside. She pushed the curtains to the side to see Emmett, Edward, and Jasper still arguing on the dock about the boat.
"They should just give it a rest, it's nothing they can do now." Rose said to herself.
Once Rose turned around, she was faced with a gun hole staring straight into her eyes. Aro smiled, as he gripped Rose's arm, and led her back towards the counters to finish making the sandwiches.
Bella sat in the living room resting her face in her hands before she heard the backdoor open.
"So, what are we going to do now?" Bella asked, not bothering to look up.
"How am I suppose to know?" Laurent growled, causing Bella to quickly look up.
Laurent quickly ran to Bella and covered her mouth with his hand.
"Don't scream, stay quiet, or you and your friends will die." Laurent warned, removing his hand from Bella's mouth.
Laurent grabbed Bella's arm and they both took a seat on the couch that faced the front door, so once the guys walk in the first sight they will be met with is Laurent holding a gun to Bella's waist.
"I still don't see how the boat came untied. We tied that boat tight!" Jasper asserted, leaving no room for argument.
"Well, maybe you didn't tie it as tight as you thought you did." Emmett remarked, opening the front door.
Once they entered the house, they saw Bella a hysterical mess. Edward's eyes immediately traveled to the guy sitting next to her, and they finally realized why Bella was crying.
"What's going on?" Edward shouted, as Marcus, Caius, and James entered the house holding up guns.
"Sit down." Caius growled, throwing the bags of money to the side.
"And what if I say no?" Edward asked, stepping up to Caius.
"Edward, just do as he says!" Bella wailed, pressing her eyes close to try to stop the tears from coming.
"Yeah Edward, do as I say." Caius mocked, moving closer to Edward.
"Alice! Rosalie!" Emmett shouted, realizing they weren't in the room.
They heard the stairs creaking and looked up to see Alice walking down them with Victoria directly behind her, holding a gun to her back. The kitchen door swung open to reveal Rose holding a tray of sandwiches and Aro holding a gun to the back of Rosalie's neck.
"Oh, babe" Emmett sighed, trying to approach her, but Marcus stood in front of him.
"Go sit down!" Victoria growled into Alice's ear, before giving her a push.
Alice ran into Jasper's arms before taking a seat next to him. Rose set the tray of sandwiches onto the coffee table.
"Thanks doll." Marcus remarked, grabbing a sandwich before stuffing a big bite into his mouth.
"This is so good, you can go join them now."
Rose quickly ran to take a seat in between Jasper and Emmett. Each of them remained quiet as they watched Victoria, Marcus, Caius, Aro, James, and Laurent eat sandwiches.
Alice reached forward to grab a sandwich, but Aro immediately smacked her hand away.
"Just what do you think you're doing?" Caius exclaimed, pulling the tray of sandwiches towards him.
"I'm hungry! That's the only reason Rose made the sandwiches!" Alice proclaimed, staring at the three remaining sandwiches on the platter.
"Oh so that's your name, blondie? Rose?" Aro asked, as Rose immediately nodded her head.
"Can I please have a sandwich?" Alice asked, licking her lips as Marcus grabbed another sandwich.
"Alice, just be quiet." Bella snapped, nervously, staring at the ground.
"Alice…hmm. I like that name." Laurent teased, winking at her.
James broke half of his sandwich and walked towards Alice to give her the other half.
"Just what do you think you're doing?" Marcus shouted, grabbing onto James' arm.
"I was giving her a piece of my sandwich. She's hungry! We can't let her starve to death!" James exclaimed, handing the piece to Alice.
Marcus pushed James into the arm chair and towered over him.
"Don't you ever go against me! If you do, they won't be the only people who's going to get a bullet to the head!" Marcus threatened, pushing his gun to the side of James' head.
Alice quickly ate the half of sandwich that James gave her as Victoria watched her in disgust. Bella didn't take her eyes off the ground, Emmett didn't take his eyes off of Rose, Jasper didn't take his eyes off of Alice, and Edward didn't takes his eyes off of the people with the guns.
Bella's stomach growled, causing her to try to clear her throat to cover up the grumble."Are you hungry too?" Caius asked, approaching her.
Edward threw his arm around Bella's shoulders and pulled her closer to him.
"Don't worry pretty boy! Nobody wants your girlfriend." Caius assured, trying to hold in his laugh.
"Why are you even here?" Jasper growled, glaring at each of them.
"Well, you see…Have you all been watching the news?" Laurent started, walking back and forth in front of the window.
"Yeah…what about it?" Emmett pressed on, impatiently.
"The Gruesome Six…that's us!" Victoria summed up.
"Wait! You six were the ones robbing all of them banks! Why are you here…you have money? You can go anywhere you want!" Bella exclaimed, confusedly.
"Maybe because the police almost caught us so we stashed our money on your boat. And when we came back to get it, we saw the boat sailing away so we had to follow!" Caius explained, propping his feet up onto the coffee table.
"Yeah…all thanks to this nitwit!" Aro laughed, pointing at James.
"I'm still hungry!" Marcus announced, flopping into the chair.
"Oh Rosie!" Marcus called out, causing each of us to turn and look in his direction.
"You seem to be our chef so how about you go in that kitchen and cook us all something to eat…" Marcus replied, as Rose hopped up and scurried away.
"Aro go in there with her!" Marcus ordered, as Aro started to walk towards the kitchen.
"Don't forget your gun!" Victoria shouted, tossing it to Aro.
"Toss your phones into the middle of the coffee table!" Marcus ordered, pointing his gun to each of us.
Without argument, we quickly pulled our phones out and set them in the middle of the table.
"I know you have liquor in this house. Oh Alice, how about you be a good girl and mix us up something strong in the kitchen?" Caius stated, following her into the kitchen.
Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Rosalie stood to the side, waiting for Aro to decide what he wants her to cook. Alice came into the kitchen with Caius behind her, following her towards the basement.
"Make more sandwiches! They're quick and easy, but tonight for dinner be prepared to make a big meal!" Aro ordered, taking a seat on the counter.
In the basement, Caius stared at the collection of alcohol in amazement. Alice grabbed a tray and stacked multiple shot glasses on it. She placed a bottle of tequila, a bag of lemons, a bottle of vodka, and a bottle of whiskey.
"Good choice." Caius blurted, leading her up the stairs.
Walking pass the kitchen, Alice realized Rose only had made four sandwiches so far. Alice pushed through the swinging door that led to the living room and placed the tray onto the coffee table.
"Good girl! Go take a seat!" Marcus demanded, running towards the tray of drinks.
"This is for later!" Marcus barked, smacking James had away from the glasses.
"We want to ask all of you some questions. Aro!" Caius stated, waiting for Aro to join them in the room.
"Question Rosalie!" Marcus demanded, before sending Aro off again.
"Caius and Alice. Bella and Laurent. Emmett and I. Edward and James. Jasper and Victoria." Marcus paired up, gripping onto Emmett's arm.
Emmett snatched his arm away from Marcus, before standing up. Caius dragged Alice back to the basement, Bella and Laurent stayed in the living room, Marcus led Emmett to the front porch, James and Edward headed upstairs and Jasper and Victoria went out the back door.
