Chapter 50: Divide and Conquer
ALEXA POV
I looked over at Elfohrys in surprise. "Are you sure baby? I might turn into a freak any second." He was shaking his head by the time I had finished.
"No, I have to take it. At least half of 'us', meaning the elves here half to test this. It's the only way we can win." He said, and took the smooth bottle from Carlisle.
"I'll have to carry you anywhere we need to go; it takes time to go into effect." I said, as he un-corked it.
He smiled a little. "I remember all to well when it happened to you." He said, and poured the bottle over his head.
The rest of the group hovered around Jasper. I was sitting on the ground next to Elfohrys, Eylador and Ambrosia were tangled up with each other, like most of the Cullen couples were.
Except Jasper. He was pacing, military intellect working. Working to save us.
"Here is what I propose." He said after a minute.
"Alexa, Elfohrys, Iggy, Gasman, Max, Fang, Emmett and I should go back and destroy the castle. Try to destroy the elixir as well. I trust you two have some sort of explosives on you?" he asked, pointing to Iggy and Gasman.
"You know me too well." Iggy said with mock flattery.
"The rest of you need to go and get as many elves as possible to fight with us. We don't have much time, do whatever is necessary. The Director is probably searching for us already."
"That leaves Nudge and Angel. I need you two to go as fast as you can back to Forks, and go to La Push. We need to warn the wolves."
Max stepped forward.
"I should go to warn the wolves. I can make it there faster. I do have super speed after all." She crossed her arms.
I started to freak out as Elfohrys slipped into the same coma I had.
Jasper's shoulders contorted as he heard his heartbeat, but ignored it.
"Would you rather have them going to storm the castle?" he asked.
She shook her head in defeat.
"Hold on, this is going a little to fast for me." Esme said suddenly.
"Me too." Emmett said; he looked like he was drowning in misery.
"Rosalie was part of our family for almost a century. I-WE need time." Esme said, putting her arm around Emmett.
Jasper looked about to cry himself. With me freaking out, Emmett depressed, and just the general fate of doom coming at us again, he looked like he was going to snap.
"THERE IS NO TIME! I understand, I feel the same way. But you can fight, and live to mourn her loss, or die in the next 24 hours." Jasper said.
I kept my fingers on Elfohrys neck, and monitored his heart beat as it accelerated.
"I agree. You guys should go." Fang said, giving Angel and Nudge hugs. Suddenly everyone was holding their partner. Except for Emmett, who stood alone.
"Emmett." I whispered. "There may still be time to get her back. She can't be all that bad." I whispered.
Angel and Nudge said their goodbyes, then jumped into the portal and disappeared.
Elfohrys snapped into consciousness a second later, jumping up and hauling me up with him, breathing heavy, and scanning the clearing.
"Elfohrys, baby, calm down." I said, and wrapped my arms around him. He relaxed instantly.
"Is it over?" he asked, looking at his hands.
"Yep, try it out!" I said.
He stretched and picked up one of the car boulders, then three more. Then he started juggling with them.
"Wow." He said, and threw the boulders into the woods.
Then he turned to me.
"Ready to go kill the Director?" he asked.
"Of course!" I said. He grinned.
"Are we ready?" he asked Jasper.
"Yes, split up and lets go." He said, and then gave Alice a motionless, but deep and long hug.
I gave everyone who wasn't coming with us a huge hug, and vice versa. Then, Elfohrys and I ran ahead to break into the castle, Jasper, Emmett, and the flock following.
The plot thickens…a battle draws near….
