Chapter 12 - The search

Cassandra POV

From what I know so far we were heading somewhere north, not exactly sure though.
We've been running for the last three hours or so.
I never knew someone could run as fast as I am now.
For all I know we could have crossed four countries at the speed we were going.

If I was still human the passing green trees would be a blur if I could run this fast.
But with my new eyes, I could see everything clearly as glass, like as if I was standing still.
So far, to this new life of mine this would be the most fun I have had since.
Just the feel of wind blowing past my fast and the smell of the fresh flowers and trees put a smile to my face.

I would usually get tired after 10 minutes of running but I wasn't now.
I had so much energy in me; I could run like this forever.

It's been a long time since we've hunted about a week and a half ago and I'm starting to feel the side affects.
Every time I smell some sort of animal, the fire in my throat starts to flame.

"Anything?" Min Ling asked Ally.

Their both on different sides of me and Kristy, covering as much land as possible and trying to find any evidence or smell if Nadia was here.

"Nope" Ally replied.

"Anything?" ally asked Rowan.

Who was helping us in finding our friend to join our coven.

"Nope nothing" Rowan said.

"Wait" Min ling all of a sudden called.

We all stopped and met up where Min ling stood.
We looked at Min Ling she was concentrating.

"Someone was definitely here" Min ling finally said.

"Yes, I can smell it but I'm not sure who" Ally said.

"Is it Nadia?" I asked.

"I'm not sure, it could be anyone from our kind" Min Ling answered.

"It has to be her" Kristy finally spoke.

"It could be" Ally said.

"Then let's follow it" I said

This time I was leading, by following the scent that Min Ling found.
We ran for another long time,
running past trees,
jumping across lakes,
swimming through rivers if necessary to reach our goal of finding our lost friend Nadia.
No one spoke for a while, I didn't really like silence.

"I've been here before" Min Ling suddenly said.

"Huh?" I asked.

"Yeah, I have. This is somewhere near where my good friend named Carlisle leaves."

"You mean Carlisle Cullen?" Ally asked.

"Yeah, do you know him?" Min Ling asked curiously.

"Not exactly, but I knew one of his adopted sons.
I wander if he still remembers me" Ally said.

"Which one?" Min Ling asked Ally.

"The one named Jasper. He was really nice" Ally answered.

"Yeah, he is" Min Ling answered.

"Hello, we're kind of lost here" Kristy said.

"Same" I agreed.

"Same" Rowan said.

"Oh yeah, Dr. Carlisle Cullen is one of us and he saves lives.
Before someone dies, he decides whether or not to save them and turns them into one of us.
We'll that's what his done so far to his wife Esme, Edward, Emmett and Rosalie.
Then Alice and Jasper joined along from what I've heard." Ally said.

"Isn't the Cullen's family one of the biggest groups, besides the Volturi and the Denali family?" Ally asked Min Ling.

"Yes they are. Plus they're really nice." Min Ling said.

We were still running during this conversation, following the scent.
Then suddenly a huge magnificent three-story white house appeared from the bushes.
I couldn't believe my eyes, it was so huge.
We all stopped not sure if we should go any further.

Alice POV

I was sitting on the couch thinking of what to buy tomorrow in my big shopping trip to the city.
Then suddenly I froze.
I could see everyone turning to look at me to ask what's wrong but I couldn't reply.
I closed my eyes to concentrate then I saw our front lawn of our house, till I reached a group of five young beautiful girls.
Two of them I recognised but the rest I didn't.
I finally reopened my eyes and now could clearly see every member of my family,
plus our two new friends confused from what just happened and anxious to understand what I saw but before I could say anything Edward spoke instead.

"A group of female vampires are outside the house.
Two of them seem to no some of us but the rest look quite new.
I can hear their thoughts from here so they probably can hear us as well." He said.

"How many?" Emmett said getting up; he was always ready for a fight.

"Only 5" I said.

"What are we meant to do?" the girl named Nadia answered.

The recently new added friend to our finally,
that just happened to came across our house with another friend which saved her from a vicious vampire after being in a car crash.
She was so alike Emmett, like they were long-lost brother and sister.

"Don't worry young friends, stay in the house and will take care of it." Carlisle answered.

"Ok" the other girl named Tiffany answered.

"So, Esme you, Bella and Rosalie stay with the girls" Carlisle said.

Esme nodded and leaded the girls to back room.

"Jasper" Carlisle sighed.

Jasper nodded as well.

"Edward, we might need you to hear their thoughts"

"Of course" Edward replied.

"Emm…."

"I'm already at the door" Emmett said with a grin.

"I'm coming" I said.

"Ok let's …." Carlisle was interrupted with the knock on the door.

We all turned to the door wandering who should go to the door to open it.
Carlisle took a step forward towards the door while another knock at the door hit.
