Alice POV
It became twilight and I could feel Jazz's hand grip a little tighter to mine as we grew closer to the invisible border that surrounded La Push. The only stop we made was to hunt. Soon we would be in the ocean and Jazz wasn't a fan of shark. The swim would be long and arduous; I hoped I knew what Sam's decision would be as long as I stuck to the conversation that I played out in my mind- I tried to go off what Jacob had told us about him. Crossing this invisible line was not an easy task. But, I was sure nothing ahead of us would be easy. It made it even more difficult not seeing our future with the wolves involved. Once we got through this I hoped it would be clear.
"Alice, we're here" Jasper said softly into my ear, his nose grazed down my neck to my collarbone and he smiled at me. It was his secret smile, the one that he only showed me- the one that made me love him. He knew that no matter how big any wave of emotion he could send me; what I wanted was that one smile to keep me strong. We came to a stop at the tree line that was the La Push Border.
"They are coming" Jasper's eyes darted back and forth through the trees. Then the smell hit me- Wolves. Surrounding us in a large semi-circle seven wolves emerged from behind the cover of the trees. Low growls coming from the depths of several of their bodies, one stood out slightly more than the others catching my attention.
"Sam… We must talk now, it 's an emergency." The sound of my voice distracted me for a moment, it sounded a bit lower than normal the urgency in my tone could not be ignored. The huge wolf snorted then backed away slowly its large dark eyes still tight on Jazz and I. A moment later Sam appeared in cut off shorts and nothing more. He looked suspiciously back and forth between my face and Jaspers.
"You are very close to crossing the line; you should turn around and go back." His lips went tight as he spoke. Growls emitted from the wolf directly in front of Jasper. He crouched instinctively moving slightly in front of my body, readying for a fight if it came to that.
I placed my hand on Jazz's shoulder "There is no turning back for us. A great danger is coming and it comes to attack my family, I only ask permission for us to cross your land to the shore, we will not come back the same way- Please Sam, if there were an easier way I would take it. We do not have time to go another route."
His eyes narrowed and he pulled in a sharp breath "Because of our past alliance I will honor your request as a one time pass. What is this danger? We have an obligation to our people as well."
"My family will come looking for us, if you could please give them this note and tell them I had to go- It was the only way for us. If they choose… Edward will explain the details." I pulled the page from my pocket and the pen from my small bag that was slung over my shoulder. I wrote the message I did not want to write and handed it to Sam. He took it and put it in his own pocket without looking at it.
"We will not keep you any longer then. But, you will be escorted to the shore- Make sure you do not return to it." I nodded my head once and we were running again through the now unfamiliar trees. I could feel the eyes of the wolves on us as we ran, some of them struggling to keep up with the pace. Jasper ran even closer at my side. Soon the smell of the water was stronger and I could feel the dirt and earth under my feet turn soft and then turn to sand. Sam had changed his form back and was at the front of the pack as we stood on the beach looking out into the endless ocean view. Jaspers eyes searched my own as if to ask if I was sure.
"Yes, this is the way we must go - I am sure of it." I leaned into his side smiling at him –I knew we were on the right path. He smiled at me feeling my confidence. We stepped into the water together slowly at first letting the spray hit our faces. When it reached my waist we dove together. In the background the sound of wolves howling into the night.
