Chapter Seven
Carlisle P.O.V.
I waited with Esme for Jasper and Alice to come home again. The rest of my family had gone off on their own, so Esme and I sat on the loveseat together. "I'm happy for them," Esme said quietly.
"So am I," I agreed as I kissed her forehead. I heard Esme's sharp in take of breath and I looked at her in concern. "What is it?" I asked urgently.
"What about the Volturi?" Esme's question caused me to stop breathing altogether. "We have to talk to them," Esme said just as we heard Jasper and Alice in the distance.
Jasper P.O.V.
Alice and I went back to the house to find Esme and Carlisle waiting impatiently. "What is it?" I asked, knowing something was wrong. I held Alice tighter, as though I could keep her invisible to the danger I knew was coming.
"Volturi," Esme murmured, and with that one word my life seemed to shatter.
"I'm going to have to talk to them," Alice said confidently.
"When?" I asked.
"Soon enough," she said. Why wasn't she scared for herself?
"Why don't you seem scared about it?" Carlisle asked.
"I don't think they'll hurt me," Alice said, reassuring us. If they hadn't killed her when she was part of a newborn army, why would they kill her now? We all relaxed and continued about our daily routine. Alice and I would be going hunting later today.
Alice P.O.V.
Jasper and I left to go hunting. We were running when I came across the trail of a deer. I pursued it as Jasper followed another trail.
I don't know how, but I tripped over something and fell. The ring given to me by my mother came off my finger and landed about three metres away. I quickly went to retrieve it, but as I turned around and started walking back I heard a growling behind me. Jasper was by my side in an instant.
"What happened?" He growled as he pushed me behind him.
"I grabbed my ring, I fell," I stuttered, trying to get the words to make sense, but they sounded crazy, even to my ears.
"What?" He asked, clearly confused. I put my head to the side so I could see around his arm. There were these big wolves, big as horses, that all seemed intent on killing me. The one in front, the biggest by far, was russet coloured. He walked over to one of the trees and went behind it. The other wolves all kept an eye on me.
"You know of the treaty," a male said looking at Jasper. He must have been the wolf that went behind the tree.
"I'm sorry, I did, but she didn't," Jasper gestured to me.
"What treaty?" I whispered quietly in his ear. The male looked at me closer and then gasped. Jasper became tense and growled in warning.
"I've seen you before," the male said. "In a photo, of my dad's." He pulled a phone out of his pocket and after a few moments I could hear the voice of another male on the other end. I tuned his voice out, wondering how he could have seen me before.
"Have you ever met him before?" Jasper asked.
"No," I whispered.
"My dad wants to talk to you," the male said. I heard snarling and realised it was coming from the wolves, and Esme, Carlisle, Rosalie and Emmett. I stared at them. "I'm Jacob," he said, introducing himself.
"Ok," I said as I tried to step around Jasper.
"Alice," he hissed.
"But Jasper comes," I said confidently.
"Ok," Jacob said with a sigh of defeat. The wolves did not seem happy about it. "Follow me," Jacob announced as he turned around. Jasper grabbed my hand and we followed Jacob through the forest.
"Where are we going?" I wondered aloud.
"To my house," Jacob replied clearly uncomfortable. We walked in silence until we reached a little house that was a faded red. "I'm here," Jacob announced as we entered the house.
"Jake," a male in a wheelchair came out of one of the rooms. He gasped when he saw me.
"Hi, I'm Alice," I said, shifting uncomfortably. The man nodded in recognition as I said my name. Jacob went over to a cabinet and grabbed a photo. He showed it to me. "How is that possible?" I exclaimed as I took in the picture. It was the male in the wheelchair; he wasn't in the wheelchair in the photo though. He had his arm around a female that looked exactly like me. Her eyes were a piercing blue and she had the same jet-black hair as I did.
"She looks like you," Jasper whispered.
"It's my mum," I muttered.
Ok, so I like this chapter, but I don't think it's the best. I think I could've done better, but I'm going to leave it, because knowing my luck I would end up making it even worse. It's more of a filler, I had to have something to lead up to the idea I have for it. Anyway, review please! Let me know what you think!
