Whatever you do, don't look down

by Alice-unchained

The pain shot through my chest as I watched them. She was so fragile and was up against three of them. Her body was weaking from the poison that ran through her bloodless veins.I doubt that she would be able to fight them off for long... *Complete*

Stay in the cave? How could I? Alice, little, Alice couldn't go down there alone. Not that I could do anything to even damage a hair on those vampire's heads...

I really wish Edward would get here now. If only him and the other Cullens could be here. Jasper wouldn't have let Alice fight. He was too protective over her. That would mean that I wouldn't have to worry about losing her. If only. Too late now.

They weren't here and now Alice would need to confront four vampires alone. This was turning into a living breathing nightmare.

"Don't leave, Alice." I whispered to her.

"If we have any hope of coming out of this alive, then I need to." She said back to me. Sadness was thick in her voice.

"I trust you Alice, but please be safe..." She smiled at me and rushed out of the cave. Suddenly, I was alone in the dark.

"I trust you Alice, but please be safe..." No promises there.

I had to leave, so I took off at full speed out of the cave. My phone buzzed in my pocket. I looked at it. There was a text message from Jasper.

We're 3 hours away. Don't do anything reckless. And... I love you. With all my heart.

I let out a long sigh. I hoped I would see him again after this was all over.

I was nearly at the bottom of the mountain now. 3 hours was all I had to hold the rogues off for. Only 3 excruciatingly long hours. I wonder if they were up for a conversation. I suppose not. A vision pushed against my mind. I allowed it access and watched.

The four vampires were close now. But for the first time I noticed that the vampire with the sandy brown hair was a newborn. Great. That reduces my chances exponentially. One newborn and three mature vampires. They female spoke. "Be patient Alex. You can have her if you want. Our orders were to destroy her. Maria didn't say anything about not being able to play with her first." Maria???? Oh shit. How could I not see this coming? The female was speaking to the newborn. "If you say so. I'd just like to see the reaction this one will have. The last one burned from the inside out. " The newborn responded. What on earth was he talking about? Burned from the inside out.

The vision faded back to reality. This would definately be a challenge...

Sorry it was short again. Been very busy so this is the best I could do. Thanks to the loyal readers. (^.^)
