Chapter 11: Death Sentence
Kairi's POV
"Well, looks like we finally got all the glass cleaned up." I said as I brushed my hands together, looking at the clean floor proudly. Even with Ven's help it took two hours to get it all cleaned up.
Ven was now helping Emmett and Esme put a new glass wall. "Okay, just a fraction of an inch to the left and it will be perfect." Ven said to both of them.
"the seriously couldn't have used a door?" Sora asked, rolling his eyes playfully.
I laughed "maybe it's their plan to kill us off by putting us to work."
He laughed and ruffled my hair a bit. "I thought that was your plan."
I playfully looked shocked. "How did you know?"
"I read your diary." he said as he stuck his tongue out.
I glared at him and pretended to be angry, "Sora, how could you?" I asked and everyone in the room started laughing.
All the teasing and laughing stopped when Aqua and the others walked in, none of them looking in good condition. "What happened?" I asked running to Aqua. Everyone else stopped what they were doing and looked at them too.
Aqua looked at me, but she wasn't seeing me. Her eyes were...blank and sad. "We were attacked." she simply stated. Then she walked passed me and up the stairs.
"Aqua..." Ven said under his breath and quickly followed her up.
Namine and Roxas had minor injuries on there body, but not as bad as Aqua, and they were actually here and keeping themselves together. "Who attacked you?" Sora asked Roxas, looking concerned about his other half.
"Some guy Named Tomo." Roxas said with some acid in his tone, but then he smiled at us.
"And this girl named Haruka." Namine shyly stated.
"We can't forget about Vanitas either." Terra told them.
My jaw hit the floor, they were attacked by the same people who had attacked us only hours before. "When and where did they attack you?" I asked turning to Terra.
Terra looked down and thought about it for a moment, "We were attacked about an hour and a half ago, maybe about thirty miles from Seattle. I don't really know."
I just nodded at him and said, "Thank you." there was no point pushing this on when they were just attacked, it's not like we could do anything about it anyway.
Terra looked up the stairs. "I'm going to check on Aqua." he said as he started walking. Then he turned around and looked at Roxas and Namine. "You two better go get you cuts cleaned up." and then he was gone.
"Well, at least he cares." Namine said looking up the stairs.
Roxas just laughed, "Yeah, at least we hope so anyway."
Sora walked behind them and started pushing them towards the stairs, "You heard the man." he told them.
"I'm going, I'm going. No need to shove." Roxas growled at him, which made Namine laugh as they walked upstairs.
It was about ten minutes later when Alice decided to walk in. Her eyes were distant, which made it obvious that she was having a vision. "Alice, what are you seeing." Bella asked, not even bothering to say hello. Renesmee and Jacob ran to Alice's side, not saying anything. Edward stood in place and his jaw locked together.
"Get the others down here, this involves all of us." Alice simply said, still watching her vision unfold.
Renesmee was the first one to react. She quickly ran up the stairs, her curls bouncing at her hip. "Namine, Roxas, Sora, Ven, Aqua, Terra!" I heard her call. "Your needed downstairs immediately."
Renesmee quickly ran back down, followed by the five pairs of feet walking down the hall, and one that was silent. They were all in the living room and seated on the couch within two minutes. I silently took a seat next to Sora and he took my hand in his. Namine sat on Roxas lap as they took the recliner. Aqua sat in between Terra and Ven on the couch across from us. Riku was just leaning against the wall behind us, and the Cullens – including Jacob - all stood in different parts of the room.
Alice slowly walked to the center of the room. "I have some bad news." she said as she looked at each of our faces. No one said anything as we waited for her to continue. She drew in a deep breath and said, "Vanitas, Tomo, and Haruka talked to the Volturi a couple minutes ago. They told them about our friends knowing our secret, and in turn the Volturi have decided that all of us should die."
I gasped in shock as my body felt with fear. Sora gently gave my hand a squeeze, but when I looked at him, I could see the same fear in his eyes that I was feeling. Aqua sighed and looked down, her blue hair covering her face. Both Ven and Terra wrapped and arm around her and started murmuring something to her to calm her down. I turned around to see Riku's body tense as the announcement sank in. When I looked back, Namine was on the verge of tears and Roxas looked...lost.
The Cullens said nothing but the change of everyone's emotions filled the air. Right now I wanted nothing more than just to wake up and find out this is a nightmare, but it's not. This is reality. "That can't be possible. They can't be in Italy right now, not when the others were attacked not to long ago." Bella protested, trying to hold on to something to prove this was all just a lie.
Renesmee stood next to her, wiping away a couple tears that escaped her eyes as Jacob wrapped his arms around her and told her it was alright. "It's very possible. Vanitas somehow has the power to teleport." Alice explained.
"What are we going to do?" I asked.
"We're going to fight of course." Jacob said. Everyone in the room stopped what they were doing to look at him
Riku stepped away from the wall and started to walk toward Jacob. "Are you trying to get us killed?" he shouted
Jacob just smiled, "We stopped these guys once, we can do it again. Plus you and the rest of your friends are gifted." Riku just growled and rolled his eyes.
"It won't be easy." Alice said.
"But we have to try." Ven calmly said.
"Alright." Edward simply said. "If we're going to do this, we're going to need a plan."
