Chapter 10 – The letter

Alice's POV

2 days ago we got a letter from Edward. It said:

Dear Carlisle, Esme, Alice, Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett.

Here in Volterra is it really sunny so I must wear a cloak like all the time. But it's really nice.

I've been hunting regular since I came here. It's lots of grizzly bears and mountain lions here. (Did you here that Emmett?) So I can't complain. I've also learned much about the Volturi.

This is what I have learned so far about their powers:

Jane can make you feel tortured only by looking at you.

Alec can cut of your senses.

Demetri finds people. He's like a tracker. Like catching different scents.

You already knew that Aro could read every mind you've ever thought only by touching you.

Marcus can see relationships.

Felix is really strong.

And someone in the Volturi lifeguards is like a shield. She keeps the enemies away.

Yeah it's everything I know this far. I hope you're doing well.

I miss you all. Edward.

As fast as I read it I got worried. I mean look at all this powers! They could kill Edward in just a second. I called for a meeting.

"What's the matter Alice?" My sweet Jasper asked me.

"Ooh Jasper I'm just so worried about Edward!"

"We all are sweetheart", Esme said from the other side of the table.

"Can't we surprise him by coming to Italy? I mean he's going to be furious but it's worth to know that he's save. Don't you think?" Everybody nodded.

"But Alice Edward said that he didn't want us to come", Carlisle said.

"I know Carlisle but didn't you see what it said on the paper? He could be killed in this minute!"

"Fine Alice. We'll go", Jasper said with a sigh. I'm sure he felt my worry and tried not to send any calm waves at my direction.

"Yeah! What if they want a fight anyways? It's a perfect chance to kick vampire butt!" Emmett shouted through the room.

"Emmett! You know that they are like two times more than us, stronger, better and more powerful!" Rosalie smacked him in the head.

"I know babe but still!" He really thought that if it would be a fight, we would win.

"I'm going to call the flight", I said to them all. I went to the table where the telephone was.

"Hello? Yes I'm Alice Cullen...yes Cullen. No no problem. I wanted to check out the flights to Italy, Volterra...yes. How many tickets are left? Then I want six tickets. First class yes. Okay thank you so much. Bye." When I turned of the phone everyone looked at me.

Emmett (of course) was the first one to speak.

"So...?"

"We're going to Italy in about three days!" I said bouncing with excitement.

I rushed up to my room and got my purse.

"Where are you going Alice?" Esme shouted behind me.

"Shopping! Come on Rose get in the car!" I shouted while looking back at the others.

"I'm coming." She ran towards me.

"Girls", Emmett and Jasper said together in union.

I just laughed at that.

We drove to Port Angeles and spent hours looking at clothes. I swear I had shopped more then what the whole town did in one hundred years. I laughed at that. I loved to shop!

"What about this dress?" I said to Rose. It was a pink one.

"Wow it's beautiful! Can I try it on?"

"Of course it was for you!"

"Thanks Alice, you're the best!"

When we came home we had like fifty bags in our hands and I was glad that we had taken the jeep.

"Wow this time the clothes are going to last in like thousand years!" Emmett shouted when he saw the bags.

"Ha-ha really funny Emmett. Have you ever heard of the name 'fashion' ?" Rosalie said sarcastic to him.

He frowned at that and Jasper laughed so much it seemed like he was about to fall out of the couch.

I giggled. The sight was so funny.

"Come on Rose, lets go packing", I said and took her hand.

"Alice you know that it is three days left before we go?" Jasper said and tried to hide his smile.

"That's what I mean!" I said and gave him a sour look.

"Let's go Rose", I said while dragging her upstairs. I heard Jasper's laugh from downstairs.
