Chapter Nine

Carlisle P.O.V.

We ran back to the house and I sat with Esme beside me as I waited for Alice to explain.

"I'm sorry…" Alice started but I cut her off.

"I know that Alice, but you just can't do that. Will you please tell us what's going on? We want to help you," I said comfortingly.

"Ok, well…" Alice trailed off and looked at her hands.

Jasper put his arms around her and held her as she sobbed.

"I'm okay," Alice collected herself and launched into her story.

Esme P.O.V.

I ran over to hold Alice as she started shaking again. I couldn't believe that the Volturi had killed her mum.

"That means you're part dog!" Emmett shouted.

Rosalie slapped him over the head and I glared at him. To all of our surprise Alice actually laughed.

"I guess it does," she giggled.

"See! Alice thinks it's funny. She's the only one with a sense of humour in this room," Emmett exclaimed.

Jacob P.O.V.

I was running through the forest trying to clear my head, but that's not easy when you're connected to a pack through your mind.

Wow, I can't believe it… Seth thought.

Leave me alone, I thought as loudly as I could.

I felt the others phasing out and I could not longer hear them. It was a lot quieter. There was no way it could be true. How come I wasn't told about this earlier? I needed to talk to Dad, I had a half-sister.

Jasper P.O.V.

I don't think Jacob was taking the news well. Alice seemed to be letting it sink in, I was furious though. I couldn't believe they would do that.

"Alice, are you all right?" I asked.

"I'm happy that I've finally found out who my father is. But I just can't believe that Aro would have my Mum killed because she didn't want to join them. How did they keep it from me this long?" Alice exclaimed in frustration.

"Any chance we can have a battle with a group of powerful vampires?" Emmett said enthusiastically. He was always looking for a reason to fight.

"We aren't going to start a fight," Carlisle said calmly, he was always the voice of reason.

"But we didn't start it, they started it, about thirty years ago," Rosalie spoke up. Everyone in the room looked at her in shock. "It's true," she muttered.

"No, and that's final," Carlisle said as he and Esme ran from the room to go hunting.

"Let's go now!" Emmett shouted.

"We can hear you!" Esme's voice rang out clear from the forest.

We all laughed as Emmett hid his head in shame. I grabbed Alice's hand and ran with her through the forest to a lake. The sun was setting and the water looked as though it were shining like crystals.

Thank you to anyone reading this. Review and tell me what you think please. Constructive criticism is welcome along with ideas on how to fix any problems this story quite possible has. Just general ideas for the story are also welcome because I don't want to get stuck for that long again.
