TPOV:
I ran upstairs as fast as I could, and seeing as Rosalie and Emmett's room was the first int he hallway I pounded on the door, then continued walking towards Carlisle's office. Rosalie came out and followed me, I knocked on the door to Carlisle and Esme's room and continued. "Go downstairs you two." I said and then opened the door to his office. I glanced around the room trying to find his bag. My eyes wandered to the closet to the right, which Carlisle always kept locked, which once when Emmett and I were up here using Carilsle's computer for some odd reason or another, we made a deal that when I finally joined the family in that way we'd break down the door to figure out what was behind it. I walked over his destroyed desk, and tried not to step on the broken glass. I went into the closet on the left half of the room and grabbed his medical bag, on my way back out I saw a piece of paper under some of the broken glass and splintered wood from Carlisle's desk. I picked it up, I wasn't planning on reading it because it was for Carlisle not me, but I couldn't resist the urge to read it.
Carlisle,
I was wrong; Seth isn't coming back in about ten years. He's back now. Oh and you might want to move away from your desk, Jasper's going to come crashing through it in a few seconds. Seth decided to drop by earlier than I expected, and if you don't hurry then Seth's new mate, I think her name is Lillith, will come and make both Emmett and Jasper unconscious. If they get that far, they will take Jasper, and leave Emmett in the woods. I can't see where Seth will take Jasper though, there might be a few werewolves involved with his grand scheme, or maybe one of Nahuel's sisters involved, either way, I can't see, so you're going to have to figure out where they took him on your own. Oh and Emmett will wake up about fifteen seconds after Tali comes back downstairs. I'm sorry Dad. Oh and make sure that you keep a good eye on Tali Caleb and Kai. According to my visions, Tali's going to go looking for Jasper about 3 months after Jasper got as she says, "Jaspernapped." Yes, Jasper will be gone for that long, try to break the news to Tali gently, though she's probably reading this note right now. Hi Tali! It's a real shame we'll never get to meet, I really want to know the girl who's going to take my place after I'm gone. Oh Tali, you can have my Porsche after you join the family in 'that' way. Tali, please be careful, if you go after Jasper you'll end up getting killed, I don't think my Jazz-Jazz could handle losing another amazing girl.
Lots of Love from Alice
I went downstairs and threw Carlisle's bag at him. "Here. Oh and I found this, I'm sorry, I kind of read it." I said with a small smile, holding up the note.
"Oh, I forgot about that, I kind of stopped reading after Jasper came crashing through the window." Carlisle said.
"Then you're the reason Jasper got Jaspernapped! Alice said that if you didn't hurry then they'd Jaspernap him. So it's all your fault!" I said hurling the piece of paper down to the ground for emphasis. It didn't work out too well, and the piece of paper just floated down on its merry way. "Dammit. That was supposed to be more dramatic." I muttered.
"My fault? Well if Jasper hadn't came crashing through the window, I would have known about the whole hurry or Jasper will get 'Jaspernapped.' so don't blame me for this Tali." Carlisle said, sounding rather angry.
"Is he going to be alright?" Rosalie asked from her spot next to her husband, holding his hand. "Emmie-bear, please, wake up." She whispered and rested her head on the cushion next to his head.
"I think so, but we're just going to have to wait for him to wake up." Carlisle said.
"Wh-What happened?" Emmett muttered, holding his head with the hand Rosalie wasn't holding.
"Emmy! You're up!" Rose said, instantly perking up, she jumped on him and gave him kisses all over his face, very much like the cartoonish moment where the guy comes back up with Kissie marks on his face.
"Emmett, what's the last thing you remember happening?" Carlisle asked.
"Um, I was strangling Seth...and I saw some girl come out of the woods in my peripheral vision, and then everything went black and I woke up here...rather confused." Emmett said looking around the room. "Where's Jasper?"
"He got Jaspernapped." I said and broke down crying because we had no idea on where my poor Jasper was. Emmett looked as if he could cry seeing his future little sister in pain, he got up off the couch and gave me a hug.
"It'll be okay Tali, we'll get him back, and then we'll change you and then we can go break into Carlisle's secret mystery closet." Emmett whispered so that Carlisle couldn't hear the last part. He was trying to cheer me up, and it was working. For a while at least, a few minutes after my laughter died, I remembered that Jasper was missing and started crying again. Emmett sighed. "She's worse than Edward was when he left Bella. Only because she can actually cry over losing her lover." he muttered.
"Tali, we're going to get him back." Emmett Carlisle and Esme all said together, trying to cheer me up.
JPOV:
I awoke in a room with walls made out of some type of metal. I quickly glanced around the room, and my eyes rested on the door. Surely Seth wouldn't be that stupid to leave the door unlocked. I thought, but figured I'd try it anyways. I noticed that there was no doorhandle on the inside of the room. I sighed. Maybe I can break the door down, it's not like Seth found some super material that a vampire can't break through. I thought and backed to the wall opposite the door. I ran full speed into the door, only to run into it, making me fall down to the ground, without the door moving. "Ow." I muttered. I walked back over to the wall opposite the door and sat down against it. That was when it hit me. The room I was in was filled with Tali's amazing scent, I smelled the air, and felt the burning in my throat rise to the point where I thought that the pain would kill me. Just then the door opened, and a girl, about the same height as Tali, with long chestnut brown hair came walking in the room.
"Hey cutie." She said, her red eyes looking me up and down. Seth and a human girl followed her into the room.
"So, Jasper. How do you like your new room?" He asked with one of his smirks.
"You know how I like it." I growled at him.
"Temper, temper Jasper." Seth said, "Jezebel, if you don't mind." He said to the first girl. Just then I went flying against the wall, my arms bound by some invisible force. The poor human girl's eyes widened with fright. "See Jasper, we have ways to keep you trapped here." He continued.
"Is this the part where I get to suffer listening to you tell me your evil plot? Please tell me this isn't going to be like a Disney movie and you sing it at me." I said.
"Jezebel, tighten the grip on him."
"But Set-" She started protesting.
"Jezebel! Just do it!" He growled at her, she shrunk away from him and complied. I felt the pressure increase on my wrists, and it was actually painful. "No Jasper, this isn't the part where you get to listen to me tell you the evil plot. Jasper this is Danielle, she's going to be keeping you company for a little while." Seth said and shoved her in my direction making her scent fly at me. I just wanted to get off this damn wall and drain the poor girl dry. "Remember what I told you Danielle." Seth said and the two vampires left the room. I fell from the wall and landed with a light thud on the floor. Fuck, I'm trapped in a room with a poor human whose blood smells rather tempting, and having Tali's scent isn't helping with my thirst. Okay so he's trying to make me as thirsty as possible or something, but why? I asked myself.
"So...Danielle...um...yeah." I said at a loss for what to say.
"Call me Danni." She said, shying away from me to sit over in the corner opposite the one I was in. "Please, don't hurt me." She said quietly.
"I'm a good guy in this situation, or at least I'm trying to be. I'm as much a prisoner here as you are. So Danni, if you don't mind my asking, how'd Seth get you trapped in here?" I asked.
"Well, I was walking down the street, took a wrong turn ended up back where all the warehouses were, and that man cornered me, and the next thing I knew I was in some weird room. Then he told me that I'd have to sit in a room with someone and probably end up dead from it, and threatened to go after my family and kill them if I didn't" She said drawing patterns on the cement floor with her finger. I swallowed down the venom that was filling my mouth.
"Danni, if I do end up hurting you, or killing you, then I'm sorry." I whispered, trying my hardest not to run over there and bite into her jugular, and losing the fight against the monster inside of me. You can do it Jasper you're strong. If Bella can do it the day after she was turned, then you can do it. Do it for Tali, do it for Carlisle, and do it for Alice, whoever you need to do it for, just do it for them. I told myself, giving myself yet another pep talk.
About seven days passed, I had found a sharp object to scratch tally marks into the wall so I could keep track of how many day's had gone by. Seth came back after the fourth day, and seeing as I had succeeded in not killing Danni, he took her and sent her back home, after using one of his new henchmen to wipe her memory of what happened within the last week. Being trapped in a room filled with Tali's scent was driving me insane, to the point where I curled up in a ball, closed my eyes and started rocking back and forth, trying to ignore the burning in my throat, and failing.
TPOV:
After three months of Jasper being gone, I was starting to get more and more worried. I paced the floor of the Cullen's living room to the point where I named the wooden floorboards and said 'hi' to them every time I stepped on them. Emmett thought I was hilarious, Carlisle thought I was having a mental breakdown, Edward was getting annoyed with my thoughts, Caleb and Kai were oblivious as to what was going on with mommy and were worried about me, and Bella, Esme, Rosalie and Sophie all tried to comfort me and make me stop pacing and talking to the floorboards. I only stopped to eat, sleep, or go to school. At school I had attempted to name the tiles, but gave up seeing as there were thousands upon thousands of them throughout the school, and I'd never be able to remember all those names, plus the floorboard names.
"Hi Billie, hi Bob, hi Jim, hi Joe." I said lifelessly as I continued pacing the living room, what a wonderful way to spend my birthday... I thought to myself.
"Heh, she said Billy Bob Jim Joe." Emmett said laughing.
"Emmett, shut up." Carlisle said and pulled me over to the couch. "Tali, you need to stop this, pacing the floor and talking to the floorboards is not going to help your situation. Just look at the positive side. Maybe Jasper escaped and he's on his way back here right now." Carlisle said.
"That's what you said a few weeks ago Carlisle. He's never coming back. Do you want to know why? Because his no good family doesn't give a damn about him. If they did they wouldn't be sitting on the couch, watching his girlfriend have a mental breakdown. They'd be out there, trying to find him." I yelled at Carlisle. He closed his eyes, sighed, and held the bridge of his nose between his pointer finger and thumb breathing in and out, probably trying to calm down. Nice, I'm one of the few people that can make Carlisle get angry. I thought with a mental laugh.
"Tali, yelling at me is not helping either. Just calm down." He said.
"Calm down? You want me to calm down after Jasper, my Jasper, has been missing for three months? I don't think I'm going to calm down until I know for sure that Jasper is safe, and being taken care of." I said and crossed my arms over my chest.
"Tali, please, at least attempt to be your normal hyperactive, optimistic self." Carlisle said with a sigh.
"No, I refuse." I said.
"Well technically, you aren't refusing, because normal Tali would be stubborn and go against what Carlisle said anyways." Emmett said. I grabbed one of Jasper's books that he'd left on the coffee table and chucked it at his head.
"Shut it Em." I said, and started to pace again. Just as I was about to pass by Carlisle, he held his arm out, as if to Clothesline me I glared at him as his arm stopped my pacing. "Carlisle. Unless you want me to catch this house on fire and make sure that you stay in it while it burns to the ground, I suggest that you move your arm. Now." I said.
"Tali, please, you've got all of us worried about you. What do you think Jasper would say if he saw that you were pacing around the living room, naming the floorboards?"
"I think he'd be wondering why the hell no one's looking for him." I yelled at him again.
"Tali. I'm serious, stop."
"Well you don't seem to give a care about him. So if none of you are going to go find him, I will, so that we can spend my birthday together." I said and started for the door.
"Tali. No." Emmett said, grabbing me, throwing me onto the couch and holding me down. "You can't."
"You did not just tell me what I can and cannot do Emmett." I said and tried to find something to hit him with.
"Yes I did." Emmett said and tightened his grip slightly on my arms.
"Well can I just go for a walk, or a drive, or something, just so I can calm myself down? I promise I won't go looking for trouble, or Jasper." I said, pleading with them.
Carlisle and Edward sighed, and Emmett said, "I don't know Tali, you're just as bad as Bella was with the whole trouble magnet issue."
"Please." I said and started crying. "I...I just want him back, I just want him to come back and hold me in his strong arms, and feel safe again. Please!" I begged, as my tears started streaming down my cheeks.
"Don't cry, please don't cry. I can't stand seeing girls cry." Emmett said.
"Then let me go Emm." I said as I continued crying.
He sighed, "Carlisle, can she go?"
"Only if you go with her." Carlisle said.
Emmett let me up, and we both went out to my mustang. I turned my baby on, and Hold me Tight started playing. I started crying, remembering the magical moments from New Years Eve and New Years day. "Do you want me to drive?" Emmett asked, his hand reaching over to turn the car straight because we started swerving off the road slightly.
"No, I'll be fine...just take this CD out, please." I said wiping my eyes with my right hand.
"Okay." He said pushing the eject button and grabbing a random CD from my CD case. Why Does it Always Rain on Me started playing through the speakers.
"Figures, you picked one of my CDs that happens to be full of sad songs." I muttered, and drove off for Port Angeles, thinking that we could go to a movie or something to calm me down. I parked in front of the movie theater. "Emm, can we see a movie?" I asked. He nodded and we got out of my car. He paid for the tickets, and bought me some snacks, lots and lots of chocolates. "Emm, how'd you know that I like to drown my sorrows with chocolate?" I asked as we walked to screen 5.
"Well back when I was human, I remember that most girls that I hung out with liked to eat a lot of chocolate, especially after they had to deal with a break up or a separation from their boyfriends." He said with a laugh.
The movie started. It was a horror flick, which Emmett and I spent most of the time laughing at how stupid the people were. This was why I both hated and loved horror movies, they always had the same basic plot, and all the characters did stupid actions. "Hey Emm, I need to go pee, so I'll be back in a few minutes, okay?" I said and quickly got up and ran as fast as I could to the bathroom. I had just downed an extra large Mr. Pibb and my bladder was about to implode if I didn't find a toilet soon. I ran into the bathroom and went for the first open stall I could find. I peed and then washed my hands. I had some fun with the super blowing dryer thing that was making my arm fat flap around if I held my arm in a certain angle underneath it, and then exited the bathroom. Upon exiting the bathroom I was grabbed rather aggressively and then dragged out of the building. "Let go of me you Douche bag!" I said and struggled against whoever was holding me. They threw me into the back of a van. "EMMETT! HELP! I'M BEING TALINAPPED!" I shouted before the person in the back of the van hit me on the back of the head and everything went black.
I came to in a weird room, with a cement floor and walls made out of some kind of metal. I lifted my head up, and felt a pain in my stomach; I looked down and saw that I had a serious gash on my stomach, and from the feel of it, a broken arm. I also saw some blood pooling underneath me. I looked to my left, and saw that one of the metal walls had been polished as if to be used as a mirror. I saw Jasper, in the mirror; only it wasn't the Jasper that I knew. It was a different kind of Jasper, with eyes black as coal, black to the point where you couldn't tell where the pupils ended and the irises began, and he was coming towards me. I thought I saw a flash of the Jasper that I knew, the Jasper with the honey gold eyes that matched his hair color, the Jasper that I had fallen in love with, the Jasper that had proposed to me. It looked as if he was one of those astral projection type things, where the soul leaves the body for however long, and I thought I saw his 'astral projection' form mouth the words, "Run Tali. He'll get you backed up against the wall. Go left. Get away from him and stay there."
I mouthed back "wait my left or yours?" my eyes widening. Great, I'm seeing things, and having a conversation with a 'ghost' type thing of Jasper.
The astral projection Jasper rolled his eyes and mouthed "yours." My eyes darted away from the mirror, back to the rather evil looking Jasper in front of me. I jumped to my left and winced at the pain it caused to my stomach and arm. EJ, the Evil Jasper, grabbed my by the wrist on my bad arm and pulled me up to him. "Jasper, I know you're in there, somewhere, please, don't do this." I begged.
His voice came out in a snarl, "That Jasper that you know isn't here anymore, and I'm here instead." He said and threw me, rather aggressively to the ground. I heard the crack before I felt it. One of my ribs had broken due to the impact with the cement. EJ grabbed me by the throat, picked me up and then slammed me against the wall, one of the bolts along the wall had connected with the back of my head, breaking it open because of the force he'd used to slam me against it. The blood from my head started flowing and traveled from the gash, down to the back of my neck, and then dripped from there down to the cleavage that my shirt showed off. EJ's eyes followed the drops of blood, and he licked his lips with an evil looking smile on his face. "Don't worry love, it will only hurt for a while, who knows you may even enjoy it." He said and he licked the blood from my cleavage, and then followed the line up to my neck. "Mm your blood tastes amazing." He growled into my ear. I tried to think of a way to distract him.
"Jazz…stop, you're better than this. Control yourself love. Please." I said. EJ leaned away from me, I don't know if my Jasper was back in control, or if the more evil version was still taking the lead, but I was grateful for the fact that he pulled away. "Just try a little harder love, I know you can resist it," I said and I reached my hand out to caress his cheek. I didn't care if it was the evil Jasper or the good Jasper controlling his thoughts, it was still Jasper. Just with a different mindset. "Try harder love, come on, I know you can do it…I'll love you no matter what happens, even if you end up killing me I'll still love you in the afterlife love, but hopefully it doesn't come to that, and if you do give into that temptation of drinking my blood, then I hope that Carlisle or Emmett or Edward are able to pull you off of me before it's too late." I said and smiled weakly at him. The bleeding from my stomach and head mixed together with the pain in my arm and ribcage were starting to get to me, and my vision started going blurry.
I saw that astral projection of Jasper again and my eyes met his, his were full of pain and anger, and he was mouthing the words, "I'm sorry love…" as EJ bit into my jugular and I screamed out in pain.
