Alice's POV

I was close breaking point, anymore stress or worry and I would crumble onto the floor in a big wreck, crying my heart out. How much I wanted to do that I had to be strong and confident for my family's sake. I spent that very night just sat in Serena's room, just watching her sleep with the thought that if I left her for one second she would be gone and I just couldn't take that. While I was sat silently my husband was down stairs at the kitchen table, desperately making plans of attack with Emmett and Edward, refusing to do anything else.

As the sun finally rose and my daughter awakening I trudged downstairs with Serena still half asleep in my arms, mumbling half-hearted complaints of nothing in particular as she became more aware of the situation. The kitchen had a strange orange glow on the pale walls as the sun began to rise. Jasper didn't look up from his pile of scattered paper and snapped pencils that they before him. His hair was unkempt and messy like his clothes, evidence of his night of pacing and all of his stress. I could easily see the image of Jasper brushing his hair away from his face and rubbing his face in his hands, the last time I saw him like this we were searching for Nahuel many years ago.

Sensing my presence in the room Jasper extended out one of his arms towards me, I slid into it and curled onto his warm lap. His arms wrapped around the two of us like a piece of safety rope, strong and secure. I rested my head in the crook of his neck as he kissed my head soothingly.

"Jazz? What's going to happen?" I whispered in his ear, scared that Serena might hear us.

"Carlisle has got in contact with the Denali's and they agreed to help us but nobody else will, apparently they are too scared of the Volturi," I heard the ice in his voice towards the end. "We'll just have to deal with this on our own,"

"Don't worry Jasparrrrr, we'll teach the Volturi a lesson they'll never forget," Emmett laughed, strolling into the kitchen, he was absolutely covered in glitter.

"One, Emmett, don't call me that and two, why in the world are you covered in glitter?" Jasper smirked, pinching the bridge of his nose between his thumb and finger.

Emmett just shrugged and leaned forward so Serena could shove her tiny fingers through her uncle short hair, giggling as glitter rained down onto her tiny cheeks.

Then it hit me, the terrifying vision that had me gasping for unneeded breath. I felt Serena slip threw my hands and another pair of hands pulling me to my feet; I was too frozen to react to anything….

"Alice! What is it? What do you see?" Jasper said, grasping me firmly by the shoulders.

"Serena! Where is she?" I cried.

"It's ok Alice, I've got her, and what did you see?" Emmett's calm voice appeared behind me.

"Jasper!" I sobbed, burying my head in his chest.

"Lis please," his voice was laced with fear. "Tell me."

"Their coming Jazz...tonight," All I heard was the sharp intake of his breath before my head found the softness of his shirt once again…
