A/N We're getting close guys!
Rosalie and Emmett burst into the clearing, confused. Ash, Phoenix and Phillipe were in a bubble of Ash's power, and she was seemingly trying to wake him up from the Phillipe-induced trance. Jasper was fighting viciously with Anastasia nearby, crashing and sending dirt flying everywhere. Then they balked. There were two Alice's. Two.
"Emmett," Rosalie hissed.
"I see them, I see them," Emmett answered. The blanched as the two Alices didn't pull any punched, slamming each other into tree stumps, the ground, and the bubble created by Ash.
"What should we do?" Rosalie asked.
"I have no idea."
"Damn it Phoenix!" Ash yelled. "Work against it! I love you, you ridiculously brooding lug, come on!" She whacked him on the side of the head. "Phoenix," Ash begged, sinking to her knees. She kissed his neck, right under his ear. That's when Phillipe went for her, too.
"Ash!" Emmett and Rosalie yelled, but it was too late. Phillipe put a hand on Ash's shoulder and she froze, her nose still touching Phoenix's neck. The bubble around them fell. Then, as Phillipe started shoving images of horror into their minds, Ash's power went haywire. Walls shot up randomly everywhere around them, slicing the tree stumps that littered the ground in half. It was pure luck that none of them hit any of the vampires.
Rosalie tried to approach but Emmett pulled her back.
"I won't let you get sliced in half," he said.
"Emmett, they are our family," Rosalie hissed.
"And when we can do something that doesn't involve being dismembered, we will. There's nothing we can do now."
Anastasia screamed as a wall was thrown up between her and Jasper, cleanly severing her hand.
"Phillipe!" she cried, beating at the shimmering wall. "Get a hold of them!"
"I can't!" his voice came, strained. "There's something about touching both of them, since they are a mated pair, they're stronger than last time. Last time I tried was before they met."
"What are you saying?" Anastasia asked. She'd admitted defeat to the wall.
"I'm saying they're fighting me!" he screamed. Phillipe looked down, confused as his hands started to warm up. He jerked them off Ash and Phoenix, pushing back but Phoenix was faster. He grabbed Phillipe by the wrists and his hands turned to blue fire. Phillipe screamed, as soon as the fire touched him it turned red. Knowing how combustible vampires are, he was a pile of ashes in mere minutes.
Phoenix stood, his hands still surrounded by blue fire that didn't burn him. He extinguished it before he pulled Ash to her feet. She wrapped herself around him, whispering his name over and over again. It only lasted a few seconds, but it was enough to get both of them back to being the strong fortress they were.
The fight between Jasper and Anastasia had resumed as soon as Phillipe had let go of Ash, which had made the wall fall. Jasper couldn't turn to see what had happened, but he felt the emotions change. He felt Phillipe's anguish, then nothing. Then he breathed in Ash and Phoenix's ferocity. Ash, who was violence in physical form, had waves of defiance and determination rolling off of her. Phoenix was feeling fiercely protective of Ash, but that didn't help Jasper much. He called on Ash's ferocity, determination, defiance and considerable willpower around himself. He used it to fight off the hopelessness he already felt. He grabbed Anastasia's arm, the one that was missing a hand, and found some leverage. He yanked and twisted, pulling the arm free and tossing it into the blazing fire.
Anastasia writhed in pain, and Ash took the opportunity to encase her in a box of walls. Anastasia screamed in rage and threw herself against the barriers over and over. Too no avail. Ash, Phoenix, Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie turned to the last fight, Alice vs. "Alice".
They were both grappling way too closely to see any discernable difference between the two. They collided, and if they'd been any more fragile, the cracking sounds would have been bones shattering. One of the Alice's threw the other into a stump and was about to rip her apart, when Emmett seized her from behind.
"Emmett, what are you doing, you're gonna let her get away!" the Alice he had shrieked. Rosalie grabbed the other Alice, pinning her arms to her sides. They both protested., each screaming how they were the real Alice.
"Knock it off!" Ash yelled. Her harsh voice actually managed to silence the two, small identical women. The both stopped struggling as Ash came to stand between them. Something about the way she walked and held herself just screamed 'lethal'. Jasper walked to stand next to Ash, between the two identical women.
"You'll never figure it out," Anastasia hissed from her boxed prison. "We've been watching you, you'll never know which is your wife."
"That's Alice," Jasper said simply, pointing to the Alice held by Rosalie.
"Are you sure?" Rosalie asked, looking at the girl she was holding.
"Yes, let her go," he said. Alice ran to his side, kissed him quickly, before lacing her fingers with his.
Rosalie came to Emmett, helping him restrain Sasha who had changed back to looking like herself.
"What now?"
