Chapter 4: Faux Emerald (Part 1.)
Would you rather live in a world where you were blind and free of worry or a world were the book of life was shining, open in the light.
In the world of light, you'd be forced to turn the pages blinded by poisonous thorns and printed in the ink of others tears. In each chapter of this book, you'd learn the unsolved mystery of life. Though, I warn you now, Knowledge is the catalyst for failure. It was the downfall of Adam and eve and can quiet certainly be the downfall of you.

The stream that ran behind the Cullen's home could be heard in the distance as a small women that looked like a child flicked on the light to the closet. Her hand brushed against the threads of a spider's web. It's been years since they've set foot in this home but procedure called. Pulling off the white sheet that covered a mirror, she could hear the voice of her husband behind her.
"Tell me again why I have contacts in my hand." The blond vampire asked his wife.
"In the vision, Bella's daughter looked directly into your eyes. I don't want her expecting anything in case she makes a resemblance with the picture. " The female said as she put on a wig of tangled curls. Flipping her head back she adjusted the hairline in the mirror.
"How do I look?" She asked as she did an effeminate twirl to model off her costume.
Calculating, her husband's eyes roamed over the non-name brand pink blouse and skinny blue jeans.
"It's a cross between Cher and Jessica Stanley if either of them held as much beauty as you do." The blond said with a chuckle.
The woman's lip jutted out into teasing pout. "Jasper, I wouldn't be picking fun at me. You have wear one too."
Completely taken a back, the man named jasper examined in a low whisper, "What?"
With blinding speed a ball of fur was thrown in his face. The women's giggles echoed all the way to the bottom of the stairs while the man examined the unidentified object. "Alice, Whats this?" he asked horrified.
"That, my love, Is a wig." She said flashing him a watermelon smile. "And honey, its all part of the charade. Most of the people that we went to school with still live here and we can't afford the cost of being recognized" she said as she fluttered her eye lids. "And quiet frankly Jasper, I think you'd look lovely as a brunette." She concluded, unintentionally making her voice seductive.
Succumbing to his wife's innocent and irrisistable expression, Jasper reluctantly agreed.
"Thanks honey," she said giving him a chaste kiss on the lips.
Unfortunately, Jasper's wig didn't fit all the way on his head and kept sliding off even with bobby pins. Frustrated, Alice's eyes rolled back into her head as she stiffened in her husbands arms.
"Wait, I think it needs something!" She exlaimed excitingly the momment her eyes were open.
Jasper stared at his wife in amazement as she disappeared from his sight. Within less than a second she returned with an old winter hat that had belonged to Edward during the early 2000s.
Looking like a ballerina, alice danced to her husbands side and stuck that hat over his head, leaving a few brown waves to brush over his eyes.
"Perrrrrfect." she purred.
"I assume that's a thumbs up on my part?" Jasper said as he saw the grin twitch on alice's lips.
"Okay, Jasper, enough with the playful teasing but we really need to go!"
Facing the large window they crouched down ready to spring. "Your chariot awaits my lady," Said jasper as he gestured to the vegetation. Together, they both flew out the window and landed on the Cullen's old driveway before taking off to the corner of Hurth and Matilda street where they would take the twelve bus all the way until Bella's daughter got on the bus with her.
"What's her name again?" Jasper asked causally as they ran. "I mean, her daughter."
"Emily Alice." She answered proudly. "Bella named her daughter after me." She marveled.
"Bella loved you Alice. You were her best friend. No you were more than that. You were her sister."
If Alice wasn't a vampire to which she would be able to produce bodily fluid other than venom she would be crying. "Stupid Edward. She would have been my sister If he wasn't so self sacrificing and-"
"Alice, stop blaming Edward. It was my fault in the first place, I should have taken more precaution that night..."
"Jazzzzzzzz..." Alice warned. "It was Edward's fault in the first place. I have a right to blame Edward because he's the one who let go of a perfectly wonderful-
Suddenly, Alice slowed to a stop. Her husband mirrored her movements.
"Alice?" He asked as he waved a hand over her glossy eyes. Alice blinked a couple times before coming back to the present.
"Just another vision." She said in a monotone. "just another vision" she whispered.
"Okay, Jasper, Lets go over what your going to say to her." She proposed as they began running again.
Confused by the moment that had just passed between them, Jasper quickly launched into the diolouge he'd say to Emily as if he were reading it from a script. " 'Excuse me miss, but did you loose this?' And when I see that her phone is broken I say,' Sorry about your phone miss.',"
"Good, Good" Alice nodded approvingly."Cus we're here now." She announced as the blur of green forest transformed into a bus stop on a cross way.
Moments after the two approached the bus stop, A blue bus started down the street. The glass door was pulled open and Alice and jasper ambled in as they fed the the machine a dollar.
"Where am I suppose to sit?" asked jasper as alice took a seat at the front of the bus.
"The outside seat all the way in the back. That's where her phone will end up sliding." she said matter of factually while Jasper nodded in understanding."
Five minuets into the ride, though they were far in distance, in perfect synchronization Alice and Jasper let out a similar gasp of surprise.
"She's beautiful" Alice whispered almost inaudibly as Emily walked past her. She was the spitting image of Bella except for the curly copper toned hair.
Alice continued to watch her as she pulled out a silver phone. Emily's face scrunched and teared her super human abilities Alice was able to hear the conversation and didn't find it that offensive. What could be upsetting her so much? Alice thought.
But her thoughts ended there. Emily's phone suddenly slid out of her grasp and ended up falling down the aisle and stooped right at Jasper's feet.
"Ah hell" said Emily in a beautiful voice.
Alice watched as the girl got up and started looking for the phone. Unfortunately she wouldn't be able to watch for that much longer as her stop was approaching. "Good luck Jasper, I'll meet you at the building." She said, too fast and quiet for a human to hear all though she knew jasper could hear.
"She's comming this way." Was his reply back, and with that alice got off the bus.
Fifteen minuets past and Alice was standing on the corner that Emily would soon be walking on. Right on cue, a pair of quick, disjointed footsteps clicked down the sidewalk.
Emily in all her beauty was coming her way. She looked so much like Bella. She reminded Alice of her best friend so much that when Emily approached her Alice had to bite on her tongue and cross her arms tight against her body so she wouldn't say the wrong things and scare the girl away as she pulled her into a giant hug.
"Exuse me miss, but do you know where the archives building is?" asked Emily. She looked cold and very wet. Yes, it would definitly be a bad idea to hug her. Alice didn't want to get her sick either.
Rehearsing her movements in the vision that she had, Alice began playing with the girls in the wig. "Oh um, take a left and go straight until you see the post office, then take a right onto Wilfred." She said, perfectly disguising the anxiousness in her voice.
"Thank you." Emily breathed in a sigh of relief before disapearing down the street.
"Oh Jasper it's so weird!" Alice said when she sensed her husband behind her.
"Lets just get to the archives." Jasper said without any further discussion.
The two sped down the sidewalk and ended up at the back door to the archives building. Of course it was locked but that wasn't a problem when you had vampiric strength.
"Jasper you need to control her emotions and make her sleepy while i take out the lights. Then bring her around the back. I saw blue honda with a dark tint on the windows and we can steel that. Wait until I give you the orders though." said Alice.
The couple waited at least twenty minuets until Alice said "now". She fled to the basement and went to the power box. Smashing her hand into the box, the switches crumbled beneath her strength and all went dark.
While Alice was out of sight, Jasper watched as the lights went out. He tried to imagine the emotion of exhaustion from his human past. Thankfully it worked as he saw Emily's eyes drift shut. With that he picked her up-she was so light-and together they disappeared into the parking lot where Alice was waiting with them in the car.
