A/N: Sorry I haven't posted in a while. With Christmas and all that, I just haven't had time. But I hope you like the chapter!
Drew and I jumped up from the table to the door. I swung it open.
There she was. Stunningly beautiful, pixie-like, with short, spiky hair.
"ALICE!!" I screamed. I threw my arms around her. She hugged back, but then quickly released me.
"Halee, we have to go…now!" she said.
"But Alice, I still don't know why we're going anywhere! What's wrong with Dad?" I asked.
"Jane captured him. But she has your sister too. She doesn't approve or Renesmee, so she's threatening to kill them both," she explained.
"What does Aro and Caius and Marcus think of that?!?!" I asked, frantically.
"They don't know about it. She snuck out of Volterra somehow. But its up to us to stop her now!" she finished.
"And by 'us' you mean….?" I asked
"But 'us', I mean you, Rosalie, Emmett, Carlisle, Esme, Jasper, Drew, and myself," she explained.
Alice turned on her heel and strode down the front porch steps and to her yellow Porsche. Drew and I followed, our bags in hand, not quite being able to keep up with Alice's graceful stride.
We stepped into the car, and we were off to Forks.
"Halee, can you please explain all of this to me?" Drew asked.
"Oh! Yea, of course!" I said. I explained everything to Drew. Everything about me, the Cullens and all their special powers, the Volturi, and basically everything there is to know about the vampire world.
After a few hours, I finally realized something. "Wait, Alice! Why are we going to Forks if Jane is in Italy?" I asked.
"She never went back to Italy…yet. We're not sure if she will, but right now, the path she's on doesn't require her to go back. She's at Forks High School. Edward, Nessie, and Jane are in the main gym," Alice explained.
"But what do the teachers think about a crazy vampire holding two other vampires hostage in a high school?" Drew asked.
"No one knows but us. Jane posted a sign on all entrances to the gym saying it was closed for cleaning. Of course, all the naïve, and frankly, stupid teachers believed her," Alice said.
I was silent for the rest of the ride. I was sharing my iPod with Drew, which we did until we arrived in Forks.
I remembered some parts of Forks, but not all of it. I remembered that it was always rained (like it was when we arrived), that it was really small, and that's about it. We passed my mom's old house on the way to the Cullens. We drove down the long, twisty, green road, until we finally arrived.
There it was. The south side of the house was made completely made of glass. The house was huge, and looked very expensive. And standing in front of the house was a group of beautiful creatures, so beautiful it was almost hard to look at them.
They all looked so different, yet they had the same pale skin, the same golden eyes, the same purplish bruises under their eyes. Their features were perfectly straight and angular. I thought in a moment they would all disappear.
I remembered seeing them for a brief amount of time when I was born, but I didn't remember them being this beautiful.
These people were the Cullens ….. my family.
