I don't own the title 'Pet Semetary' Stephan King does! All characters belong to the awesome Stephanie Meyer. Hope you guys enjoy the last chapter!
*Alice POV*
"Well, we have to go back there then!" I yelled, now pacing. The Volturi had my baby and now, well now I was pissed. The first time they took her I was in a depression because I thought that I'd lost Jasper. And now? They. Are. Going. To. Die.
"And get ourselves killed?" Spoke Edward, I was surprised. He was the one I least expected to speak up at a topic such as this one. He and Bella would know the feeling, the love one shares for his or her child. They should know the hatred I feel right now for the Volturi. The love I feel for Ellie. Edward of all people should know.
"You seemed more than willing before!" I hissed. Jasper stood up and stood between Edward and I.
"Alice, Edward is right. We have to go about this strategically." I slumped my shoulders in defeat, knowing I wouldn't be able to win a battle between both Edward and Jasper. "Alright," I spoke, sitting down on the bed. Edward looked at me with apologetic eyes and I looked away from them. I didn't want apologies at that moment, I wanted action. I wanted us to leave right now and for me to be able to hold Ellie in my arms once more. I needed that.
Jasper, Carlisle, and Edward all began talking on different ways to get through the guard without the Volturi noticing. I paid little attention to the options they were considering, and paid more attention to my visions. I searched and searched but Ellie wasn't in any of them! Her future was blank, as if she had no future. And if you had no future…you were d-d-de…
I gasped and my family looked at me instantly. Edward already knew, and looked at the floor with a saddened expression.
Just then, Sam burst through the door, out of breathe. "The little girl, she's," He paused for a moment and took in another lung full of air, "She's running, we've been chasing her. She thinks were chasing after her. She won't listen, she just keeps," Another large inhale, and exhale of air, "running." He finished.
Before I even had time to think, Edward flung himself out the window and began running at human speed towards the woods. Bella followed him only seconds after. "Wait!" Carlisle yelled out the window. Bella and Edward stood frozen on the ground below the window and looked up with confused expressions. Edward was already nodding his head, and quickly sprang back up. Bella, extremely confused now, followed Edward instantly. "It should be Alice or Jasper. Chances of her stopping for one of us in the state of shock she is in, are slim." The whole family was nodding their head, including Sam surprisingly. Sam right now seemed much of the outsider. The werewolves and us will never truly get along, but will put on an act for Nessie and Bella. I never regretted befriending Jacob, or Seth. Aside from that, I was still so grateful for Sam's being here.
Triumph filled the air as Carlisle explained the plan to trap Ellie. I didn't like the thought of Ellie being trapped and having nowhere to go, but with the state she was in…
"…Edward, you and Bella go east. Keep heading that direction until I call with further instructions. In the end though, it will all come down to Jasper calming her down enough and convincing her that she is safe."
"She'll go to Jasper, regardless. She doesn't need convincing." My voice was not as merry as it once was before, but it had more life in it than it did two days ago.
"Go my son" Carlisle spoke directly to Jasper, who immediately left without a second thought. He did not even say good-bye to me.
*Jasper POV*
I felt my wife's heartbreak as I began running at human speed towards the woods. What did she want me to say? 'Honey Bun, I'll be right back after I go to the store and pick up our daughter?' I was confused by her emotions and decided to keep my head straight on the task that I was about to perform.
To my left, I saw Edward and Bella going the directions they were directed to go. I felt relief knowing that we would see our baby again. I felt once again like a fit father.
But before my vision was cut off from Edward and Bella, I saw a slight grin on Edward's face. Could he read Ellie's mind? What was she thinking that could possibly funny at a time like this?
*Ellie POV*
These dumb animals kept chasing me! I saw them in Volterra, were they with the Volturi? I did not know, but I certainly did not intend on letting them catch me.
Dumb dogs.
This is why I am never going to ask for a puppy for my birthday from my parents.
The thought of my parents made my heart ache. I missed my Momma and Daddy so much. Especially my Daddy. The last I saw him, he was on the ground, groaning and squirming in pain. The thought brought my dead heart to a stop. My parents didn't deserve to go through this. I missed them, but I couldn't go back to them. Especially not with these dogs on my tail. Ha. Dogs…tail…
Focus Ellie! I told myself mentally. If I were to go back to my parents, I would lead these furry, disgusting animals to them. And I wanted to do whatever possible to make my parents safe once more.
I ran faster, the thought of my parents seeming to make me stronger. A new scent filled the air. A familiar scent. My Daddy's scent…
What if it was a trap? That was a risk I did not want to take. The Volturi seem to be tricky people. I mean, they tricked my family into thinking that I escaped, when in fact Jane hid me the whole time.
The memory came so quickly to me I couldn't stop the thought of it.
"Let me go!" I yelled, though I knew it would do nothing. Jane threw me down onto the hard floor and wiped her hands together as if she had just done a dirty job. I coughed and looked up with deathly eyes. "Please, leave my parents be," I spoke, my voice weak and unconvincing. Jane laughed and said, "Aro is going to let them go anyway and let them return tomorrow. They'll never think to look for you here." She laughed once more, a laugh of victory. I sighed in defeat and looked down at my dirtied knee's on the floor. Jane left as quickly as she had came.
I began to cry but made sure my cries were silent. I did not want my parents to hear me. I wanted them to look elsewhere so that they would be safe again.
Just then, someone grabbed me from behind. Their stench was excruciating above all else. "Shut up, and stop squirming!" The voice sounded familiar, but I did not put much thought into it. My only goal was to get out of the grasp I was in, and free myself.
Before I knew it, the stinky, rude man let me go once we were outside. I began to run.
I ran and I ran.
My feet didn't seem to be hitting the ground hard enough, fast enough. I pushed myself harder. My speed increased, my curly light brown hair flowing behind freely.
My body was only physically four years old, that I wish wasn't sure. My legs were too short. My strength was next to nothing.
"Ellie!" Daddy? Was that my daddy? "Ellie! It's me! Please stop! It's daddy!" It couldn't be. My daddy wasn't here. My daddy was with Momma.
I did not want to let my mind believe that my daddy was really here. That my daddy was here to comfort me in my time of need. But I also did not want to let my mind believe that he wasn't here. I wanted more than anything for my daddy to be here to tell me he loves me, and to tell me that the black cloak people were gone and he would keep me and momma safe for forever, and ever.
I let my mind wander. My racing speed slowing down. I hesitantly came to a stop and looked around cautiously. Two figures were on my left, which made me jump and go into a crouching position. The two dark figures immediately disappeared and I looked around once more nervously. "It's ok, that's just Edward and Bella."
My daddy was coming towards me slowly, throwing peaceful waves at me like there was no tomorrow. My eyes closed involuntarily. My crouching position faltering.
Before I knew it, I was in my daddy's arms, sobbing. He held me and rocked me back and forth gently. He hummed to me softly and whispered to me over and over that he loved me more than anything in the world.
"Daddy?" I said between sobs. Though there was nothing I wanted to say, just the sound of that word leaving my lips brought me great relief.
Daddy may have answered at the sound of his name, he may not have. My sobs were drowning out all other sounds. He lifted me and carried me bridal style, holding me close to his chest. I cherished this moment in his arms.
We were going at vampire speed. Though I didn't know where we were, I didn't care. The stink I had smelled earlier returned, but the thought left as quickly as it had come. All my thoughts were centered around the fact that I was in my daddy's arms once more.
I smelled humans and realized we must be reentering into Volterra. I groaned at the thought of going back into that horrible city but was thankful that I was going back with my Daddy.
Passing humans must have noticed me in his arms as we approached a large building. In Italian, they were speaking to my daddy with worried voices. My daddy's chest rumbled gently beneath my tiny palms as he replied back in fluent Italian.
"Ok baby girl, were here. Your going to see your momma." My heart leaped with joy at the realization of his words. I reopened my eyes and met my daddy's eyes. Us both showing the same amount of joy at the mere thought of seeing my momma again.
We were behind the same building we approached earlier only we were in a dark ally. Daddy sprang us up in the air and into a small window.
"Ellie!" I heard my momma's voice yell with joy. "Momma?" I spoke, reaching my tiny arms out towards the sound of her voice.
She took me at vampire speed and held me close to her chest, hugging me. She kissed me continuously on the head and laughed out loud at the feel of my touch.
Another tear left my eye and she wiped it away quickly. I was overwhelmed with joy.
Daddy hugged us both tightly, kissing momma on the lips. Daddy and my momma smiled at each other, it was almost an apologetic smile. I didn't understand what they were sorry for, but I didn't care. I had my family here with me. My daddy, my momma, grandpa, and grandma.
Momma set me down and I looked up into the two pairs of eyes that I loved the most in the entire world. I smiled and they both returned their smiles gratefully. "Can we go home?" I asked hopefully.
Grandpa looked at my daddy warily. But then looked relieved when Uncle Eddie and Aunt Bells jumped through the window. "Bella and I are going back to give them our cover up story. Were going to tell them that we were unable to catch Ellie and that if we were to catch her, we will return her to Volterra immediately. You and Alice though of course don't agree with this, and have left our coven. Seem convincing enough? And if Aro were to want proof on the fact by reading my mind, Bella is going to shield him."His plan seemed ok enough, but was it too good to be true? Uncle Eddie shook his head in my direction and momma looked at him confusingly. Uncle Eddie then spoke out loud saying, "Your momma has already seen a vision of the outcome. It will work." I nodded, unable to put into words of how much joy I was feeling.
Aunt Bells and Grandpa left while the rest of us stayed behind and simply relaxed. Daddy had made the calls for the plane on our leaving. Momma held me tightly in her lap, and kissed the top of my head ever so often.
Just when I was at most peace, the stench I had been dreading all day entered the room.
I stiffened at the smell but did not say a word. "Hey kid, ya know, ya could've cooperated a little today." It was Jacob. Wait, Jacob's voice sounded a lot like the voice in the dark room Jane had put me in. Was that Jacob that grabbed me…?
My eyes shot open as realization struck. My daddy and Uncle Eddie both chuckled as I sat up in my momma's lap.
"You filthy mutt! You could've told me that was you. Then, maybe…just maybe, I wouldn't have run! You…stupid…dog!" My frustrated words were coming out in bursts rather than sentences. Uncle Eddie was in a full out howl of laughter as my daddy joined in.
Jacob grinned and winked at me saying, "Your welcome, kid" I rolled my eyes as the laughter from my daddy and Uncle Eddie filled the room. My momma was even shaking from giggles beneath me.
*Jasper POV*
We were on the plane home now. Ellie reading a book peacefully in her seat. Alice's fingers intertwined with mine. Bella and Edward in front of us, each taking turns on talking to Ness on the phone. And the wolves and Carlisle and Esme all in discussion about today's events. I would be more than happy to forget all of today's events. I smiled down at my perfect wife, not having a reason, just wanting to smile. She smiled in return, knowing that we didn't need a reason to be happy. We were together again. Our family, together.
"Daddy, what's a semetary?" I was pulled out of my and Alice's world of smiles. My attention once more on our loving daughter.
Ellie was confusingly pointing to the word 'semetary' on the book, "Pet Semetary". She was half way through the book and she had only been reading it for ten minutes now.
"Well, for one, that's spelled wrong. It's spelled, c-e-m-e-t-a-r-y."
"Why?"
"That's just how you spell the word. I guess that's how Stephen King wanted to spell it."
"Why?"
"Well, Stephan King is a famous writer. He can pretty much do whatever he wants and his fans will love it."
"Why?"
"Because he is talented at what he does."
"Why?"
"He likes to write."
"Why?"
"He enjoys it."
"Why?"
"Ask your mother." Alice sighed as she jumped into our never ending conversation.
*Alice POV*
After a long plane ride home, we were finally driving on the familiar roads I missed so much. Ellie's endless questions were hard to answer, but were worth trying to answer. I missed her questions as much as I missed her, so I didn't mind one bit answering any of them.
As we pulled in our driveway I felt relief, knowing we were finally home. I couldn't help but miss Rosalie and Emmett, but I shot those thoughts from my mind not wanting to lose the joy I felt for the fact that my family was together again.
Renesmee ran out into Edward and Bella's open arms. As we entered the house, Ellie giggled at the sight of Seth in makeup and a dress. Nessie must have gotten to him…
"You look gorgeous!" exclaimed my Ellie. Ness joined Ellie at her side and took her hand and they skipped excitedly over to Seth who was groaning, but not complaining.
I laughed as they both began applying more makeup and hairspray to poor Seth.
"Hey you two! I want to help!" Rosalie came from around the corner and laughed at the sight of my face. My mouth was formed in a large 'O' shape, and I was speechless. "Yeah, right now the Volturi think I'm helping you guys look for Ellie." Emmett appeared from the corner also, grinning from ear to ear.
Edward and Bella rushed over, giving both of them hugs, as well as Esme and Carlisle. I hugged Rosalie tightly and smiled, holding her by the shoulders. "Don't ever scare me like that again." If I could cry, I would've been.
"Am I forgiven?" Rosalie asked, but not only to me, to the whole family.
We all nodded without thinking. We would always forgive Rosalie and Emmett no matter what they did. They were family. We were all one big family and no matter how stupid or selfish one did to the other, they would always be forgiven.
"Momma, momma! Seth looks so pretty now!" Ellie jumped up and down, along with Nessie. I laughed as Jasper picked Ellie up and kissed her lovingly on her forehead. They shared a loving daughter/father moment, that I simply was unable to interrupt.
Nessie was squeezed tightly between her parents, with each of their hands in her own.
Carlisle and Esme, embracing each other in a hug and smiling lovingly at the family before them.
Emmett and Rosalie were smiling widely and laughing at the joy of the room.
The room fell silent except for the one small voice that was coming from Jasper's arms. "Daddy, where do babies come from?"
We all laughed at the never ending questions that would be coming from this little one. We had forever to answer them.
I got to say, I am a little sad to let this story go. But all stories right? I almost felt like crying when I typed the last line…maybe I did cry. I hope you guys enjoyed the last chapter and I hope it wrapped everything up for ya! Please review and leave me suggestions on the next story!
