It took about three minutes on foot to reach the clearing. Usually I loved to run, but my mind was else where. So I was going to be forced to meet Bella. I gritted my teeth. The clearing that we played Baseball in was huge, at least double the length of a regular pitch, and about three times as wide. Emmett made a grab for my hand, but I snatched it away from him. I strode over to a small patch if rocky ground on the fringe of the clearing, and sat down there. Carlisle started to mark out bases, and Alice and Jasper were throwing a ball back and forth between each other. Emmett and Esme joined me on the ground. "Please be civil to Bella." Esme pleaded with me. "She means everything to Edward." I didn't respond, I just turned my head in the other direction. Emmett made another grab for my hand, this time I let him take it, there was no need to take out my temper on Emmett. The ball that Alice and Jasper hit the ground, that was odd. It wasn't like they would actually drop it. "Alice what's wrong?" Jasper asked, there was already a hint f worry in his voice. Alice snapped out of her trance quickly "oh, it's nothing. I've been monitoring some nomads in the area recently and they are leaving today." Jasper relaxed instantly, and he and Alice resumed throwing and catching. There was the sound of unnaturally fast footfalls coming closer and closer. Then they abruptly stopped and there was a thump as something fell to the ground. "Oh" the girl said. Edward laughed. I decided to block out the rest of their conversation, I mean yes I did dislike the girl, but I knew if I were talking to Emmett I would want the privacy. Their conversation was relatively short and then Edward and Bella emerged hand in hand from the trees. They had walked out fairly close to where Esme, Emmett and I were sitting. Esme and Emmett got up and walked over to them, but I wanted to put as much distance between myself and her as possible, so I walked over to where Carlisle was standing, baseball bat in hand. I grabbed a spare bat from the ground and began tossing it and catching it in my hands. In wanted to get on with this, the sooner this game had finished, the sooner I could get away from Bella. "Was that you we heard Edward?" Esme asked him. I heard every word she was speaking with perfect clarity even though I was standing a good 30metres away. "It sounded like a bear chocking" Emmett clarified with a grin. I couldn't help but smile slightly. Emmett really did make me laugh sometimes. "It was him" Said Bella hesitantly. She was nervous, I could tell from her voice. "Bella was being unintentionally funny." Edward said, he like Emmett, was grinning widely. Alice and Jasper had stopped the catching game, and she bounded over to where Edward, Bella, Emmett and Esme were standing, Jasper, like me, was keeping his distance. "It's time" she announced her voice was higher than usual, excited. A rumble of thunder followed her words. "Eerie isn't it?" Emmett said to Bella, talking as though he had known her for years. The familiarity in his voice made me growl. I mean I could understand why Alice could accept Bella, they were going to end up best friends, Alice had seen it. And again I could see why Carlisle and Esme would accept her; she was the missing piece of their son to them, but Emmett? I couldn't understand. She should be just a meddlesome human to him to, but there he was speaking to her like a lifelong friend. I snarled under my breath and swung the bat in my hands at the ground where it created a dent in the solid earth. "Rose" Emmett had returned to my side "don't bust the bats." I looked at the aluminium bat that I had been gripping; the end was bent in where I had smacked it into the ground. "Oh, sorry" I muttered, keeping my voice deliberately low so I wouldn't start shouting at him. "Don't worry we have another bat." He was speaking more softly than usual, probably trying to avoid doing anything that would annoy me. "Ok "Esme yelled "Batter up." It was then I noticed that everyone had taken their positions, I had been to busy fuming to notice. Alice was pitching as usual, and Emmett was first to bat. Alice was standing motionless, this was her style, the statue act would stay in place until… There was a smack as the ball sailed straight past the bat and into Jaspers waiting hands. He was acting as backstop. That girl was fast. This time Emmett hit the ball and it flew off into the woods. I heard the Bella girl gasp when the ball and the bat hit, creating a sound like thunder. I rolled my eyes at that. Emmett was thundering round the bases, he was almost at forth when "out" yelled Esme. Edward had come streaking across the field, ball in hand. The game continued, Edward was fielding brilliantly as usual and this was no help to the bad mood I was in. When I came up to bat, I managed to smack the ball out pretty far but I was caught out by Edward. I groaned and threw the bat to Emmett with a little more force that necessary. We switched positions about half an hour in to the game. I was out fielding. Edward was first to bat, he hit it low where I missed the catch, and he managed to gain two bases before Emmett could get the ball back in play. Carlisle hit the ball so far out that he and Edward both made it in. The game seemed to be going faster than usual, perhaps it was the fact that I was so unwilling to be here. Edward continued playing low, where I never seemed to be able to catch it, he really was annoying me. Carlisle was up to bat again when I heard Alice gasp from behind me. Her eyes were wide and staring and her mouth was gaping. Alice was in the future and whatever she was seeing it was bad.
Everyone had run to Alice's side, "Alice?" Esme said her voice tense.
"I didn't see – couldn't tell..." Alice whispered.
"What is it, Alice?" Carlisle asked, his voice ringing with a clam authority.
"They were travelling much quicker than I thought. I can see I had the perspective wrong before." She paused, "They heard us playing and changed their path." My flicked a glare at Bella. These nomads wouldn't be like us. They girl was in danger. I looked around at the rest of the family, their gazes were jumping back and forth between Alice and Bella. I knew this girl would be trouble.
"How soon?" Carlisle said, turning to face Edward. I could tell what he was thinking. Is it to late to get the girl out of here?
"Less than five minutes, they're running. They want to play." He was scowling, his eyes were glued on Bella's face. He looked like he wanted to grab her and run but something was holding him back. "Can you make it?" Carlisle asked.
"I'm not fast enough carrying …" he cut short. Besides, the last thing I want is for them to catch her scent and start hunting." So that was what was holding him back.
"How many?" asked Emmett.
"Three." Alice answered quietly.
"Three" scoffed Emmett "let them come." I shot him a withering look. Emmett was always too ready for a fight, one of these days he was going to get himself hurt, and by god I was not going to let him get injured in a fight over Bella Swan. I moved to his side, clutching his arm. If my Emmett was going to get hurt over this girl, she would pay. Edward seemed was too distracted to notice my dark broodings, for which I was glad.
"Let's just continue the game." Carlisle said. "They are only curious." We all returned to the field apart from Edward who seemed to be glued to Bella. No one was hitting hard anymore. My eyes scanned the forest looking for their arrival point, but I saw nothing yet. The game still continued, but no one was paying the slightest bit of attention to the score. Then I heard the sound of footfalls to the East.
