Another chapter done! Do you people love me again?! DO YOU? Do you? If you don't then you don't have a good reason...yet.
Carlisle's POV
She stood like a commanding soldier in front of me. No expression to give away her true feelings to the predicament that she was in. She waited ready to take any orders being shot in her way. I wonder if my words would register like a gift from above to her, a way to get away from the troubles over her head. I hope not, hate is a much more feasible emotion for me to love.
"You will be the one to lead them into battle against my formal family." I said.
"You've told me." She said still no emotion on her face.
"Yes, I have. I'm making sure that you understand what exactly I want you to do."
"I understand what you want me to do just fine. I'm wondering why. Why am I the one to lead them? Why would they even listen to me?" No expression again not even a raised eyebrow.
"They will, they have no choice. And can you honestly say that you don't feel angry at the fact that your Love traded you for the girl she claims to be her sister? Don't you feel betrayed by the infidelity?"
There was a long silence now. I couldn't tell if she was sad, mad, angry, or anything at all. A boulder would most likely give me more facial expression that her.
"Who is she anyway?" She finally asked.
"Her name…is Isabella. She was to be my mate, she is also a vampire. When your girlfriend found out, she basically blew a fuse. We almost went to war. But instead she traded you for Bella. I took you, she took Bella, then we parted ways."
This time I could see her fist clench. Ahh so she may not remember anything about her but she could still get mad.
"I mean you wasn't going to last took long anyway. While a demon and a Grim Reaper may seem like the ideal partnership, she is on a whole different level. The only one that could come close to her would be Bella." I said.
"Bella, Bella, Bella. Why does everyone obsessed over her like she is a queen?" She asked.
"Well, not to be rude or anything, but soon she will be the queen of her race. As I've said, she is on a whole different level."
A growl escaped out her mouth now.
"Sir I would like to be the one to kill her." She stated.
Now that is information. That is the expression the emotion that I have been looking for.
"Why would you want to kill her. She is in the same predicament that you are in. She was taken from me because your girl wanted her. There was no communication between them. But I guess she does need a punishment for going with her without an ounce of fight. But it's good to hurt a person indirectly than directly."
"What do you have in mind?" She asked.
"A lot, let me walk you through it."
I smiled, oh this will be good.
Alice's POV
"Here, for the love of god, stop breaking our door knobs." Fin says as I open the front door.
He held out a lanyard and on that lanyard was a key. I could only assume that the key was a replica of the house key.
"I wouldn't be breaking your door knobs if you kept your doors unlock.
I said taking the key none the less.
"Now why would we keep or doors unlock?" He asked.
"If you did then I wouldn't be breaking them. Also you know the only things that can't break open your door you really don't need to be afraid of." I said.
"No one said that they were afraid, jut annoyed with all the fixing." He said.
"You should get out more." I said.
"What?" He asked.
I didn't say anything. My head. It was pounding. Pounding hard. It hurts.
"Alice are you okay? Alice….do….hear….call….maybe could….hang on…"
Darkness filled my eyes slowly. Visions never hurt me before. It was a surprise though, I haven't had one in a while. I don't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing. It was a nice peace while it lasted. Snippets of pictures quickly came. It was like a mix between an old black and white movie and a flip book. With each turn of page vampires got closer and closer to reaching me.
But sadly it was only one thing that actually held my attention. The one leading the attack. Her newly found sister red eyes and all. Tani. Her arm slowly reaching out. Each changing picture it got closer. When it was about to touch me, it stop. I thought the vision was over, but after the hand disappeared the word 'no' appeared.
Over and over and over. No, no, no, NO, NO, NO! NO!
"No."
"Easy, easy Alice, you're okay Darling." Jasper whispered.
"No." I whispered.
"Yes, you're okay. What happened? What did you see? Can you talk about it right now?" He asked.
I didn't want to, but I have to.
"They'll be coming two days." I said.
"Crap." He said.
…
"Back up, why so soon. How do you know this?" Damon asked.
"Kema was there." I said.
"Yeah so?" He asked.
"The outfit she was wearing. It was black jeans and a red shirt." I said.
"Again I ask yeah so?"
"Alice- she was the one in charge of dressing Kema in the morning, to change her clothes. Her clothes can absorb her power and we need all excess power to leave. She planed all her outfits for a month." Bella said.
"And the outfit that was going to be on her two days from now, was what she was wearing?" Kol asked.
"Yes." I said, finally someone understood.
"That's has got to be the dumbest thing I have ever heard." Rebekah said.
"What?" I asked.
"Why are you so obsessed over clothes?" She asked.
"She just is and you should be happy that we know when they are coming. I mean we could have been sitting ducks." Rose said.
"No need for the anger love." Klaus said defending his sister.
"Tell her that sometimes a sharp tongue is not what a people need right now." Edward said.
"Oh don't hold back at all." Damon told Edward.
"This isn't helping anything." Jasper said.
"What's a little squabble amongst friends?" Elijah asked.
"A lot when we are thinking about awakening Kema."
"You make it sound like we are summoning a demon." Kol laughed.
"Oh we already did. The demon is already on her way." I said.
"Tani?" Moe asked.
"Yeah, she seems to be leading the attack."
"Why her?" Edward asked the same time Emmett asked, "So soon?"
"I agree with both questions. Why her and why so soon?" Jasper asked.
"Soon might be because he is tired of waiting. From what we've gathered this started before the whole Cullen family was even born." I said.
"And why Tani, of all the soldiers he chose her."
"Dominance." Klaus said.
"Control?" Elijah asked.
"She listens to him now obviously. Maybe to gloat." Emmett said.
"What about Kema. Tani may not be thinking right at the moment, but Kema, she wouldn't hurt Tani would she?" Fin asked.
"She would if she had to." Moe said.
"It'll kill her." Kol said.
"You mean she will kill her." Moe said.
"No matter how you put it, it means the same thing." Bella said.
"This is bad." Fin said.
"No we are only a few months away to the new year. This is a dying war." I said.
"A dying war? Doesn't even like it started." Damon said.
"Just wait a while. You'll be wishing it was over."
Tani's POV
Isabella Swan-Carter. God just her name makes her sound important. It demands respect. Corporal, Colonel, Captain, Major it all sounds like it should precede her name. But Queen. Of all titles she could have it was that. Queen, ruler of all vampires.
Why must people I can't remember make me mad? Why must they try to determine my future? They can't rule over me anymore. I won't let them.
"I'll kill them all."
"Yeah that's nice and all, but you need to save all that anger for when you get to the battle field. A plus for effort though."
"Why are you in my room. Well it would be better to call it my dungeon cell. What are you doing here Bonnie?"
"I just came to drop off your uniform."
"Tell Carlisle that no matter how much he asks I'm not going to be dressing up as a Japanese girl."
"Well you have height on your side." She said.
"Funny, leave."
"No, now make sure it fits." She threw the clothing at me.
I sighed and looked it over. Black pants, looks form fitting but loose. Black Timberlands, wasn't aware they made those. Dark blue shirt. Button up, no name tag.
"Would you like to see me strip officer?"
"Just hurry up. I still need to try on my own uniform."
"Mmm, so I'm top priority?"
"Always."
Once the other boot was laced up I turned to show her.
"Good, it fits good." She nodded.
"Should I say thank you?"
"No, you should grab your bag and grab your soldiers. We are starting to make our way to Virginia as soon as I am properly dressed."
"You sound like you are reading from a paper soldier."
"I am not a soldier I am your commanding officer and general now get ready soldier."
She sneered the last word as she turned and left me in the dark cell ready to cast away and make my opponent meet their fate.
Kema's POV
Two Days Later
My eyes flew open as all sensations came back like a truck hit me dead on. Before I could really focus on what was happening. Somehow I found myself clutching the ceiling fan. How the hell did I get up here.
"Hey spider-monkey sorry to disturb your sleep, but can you come down?" Bella called.
"How'd I get here? Last time I checked I was flashing all over the world."
"Let's hope you mean with your power and not with your body."
"Of course. But still, how'd I get here?"
I let go and felt the bed springs protest against my weight.
"Esme saw you in Italy, knocked you out with sleeping powder. He thinks she's a wizard and you've been knocked out since."
"Then why now? What happened? Is it Tani?"
She didn't respond at first.
"Carlisle is having her lead an attack against us."
"He…got to her head?" I whispered.
"I'm sorry Kema. I should have had a better plan. I never should have brought the two of you-."
"Stop it! We all agreed on the plan. We are fine. When is she coming? I can't wait to see her even if it is to fight."
"Tonight, figured you wouldn't be able to wait long."
"Oh you know me so well."
"You're my sister of course I do."
"Well let's get started. We have a long night a head of us."
Unfortunately for some that's all they had left.
