Alex charged at Jasper, clearly not at full speed. Jasper took the hit and threw Alex over his shoulder. Emmett's cue. Emmett jumped out from the brush and caught Alex in a head grip. Edward came out and got a hold of his head, but Alex slipped out and had them both in a head lock in a matter of seconds.
My Cue.
I came out and grabbed the wrist of the arm holding Edward and twisted it upwards, something that would've broken the wrist of a human completely. The next cue wasn't for a while, so we had to hold out. With Edward free, he got Alex's other hand and Jasper ran and kicked Alex in the chest. Alex fell to the ground and Emmett had his hands around his head in seconds. He began to twist when he broke free again. Finally, it was Alice's cue. Alice came out and grabbed a wrist, and I grabbed the other. Alex mumbled something along the lines of "Why aren't you protecting your daughter?" and I grabbed his wrist with both hands and spun around as if I were dancing, but in a much faster pace. His arm almost came out of his socket. He smirked. "Until we encounter each other again." He broke free and grabbed his staff in half a second, and was gone.
I was about to chase after him when Jasper yelled, "Don't follow him! He might lead us somewhere where we are weak. Where we have no advantage."
Edward walked over to me and rubbed my arm. "Bella, what did he say that made you so mad?" I frowned. I looked down and played with my thumbs. Edward placed his cool finger under my chin and lifted my head so I would look at him. I looked deeply into his eyes, which were the bright gold I loved, though nothing took what Alex said out of my mind.
"He-he," I paused.
"He what, Bella?" He stared deeply into my eyes and pulled me closer. I placed my head on his chest and looked up.
"He threatened to hurt our daughter. He threatened to hurt Renesmee." Jake ran over from a bush, never able to reach his cue.
"He threatened to hurt Renesmee?" Jake asked, his eyebrows carved worry lines in his forehead. I nodded. "What were his exact words?"
"Doesn't matter." Edward was looking down, his marble face filled with worry as well. "He's thinking about how to hurt her. He's found our greatest weak spot."
I walked past them, and in between Jasper and Emmett. When I went between them,
I muttered with anger filling my body, "Let's kill this bastard."
