Chapter 15.
Never Can Say Goodbye
A million thoughts fled through my mind, wondering where they went. Kaleb. It was all his fault. All of this. He was like Damon from a series a read in the 7th grade. All of this seemed like a fantasy. A never ending nightmare. When will this end? When will everything be okay? Will I live to feel Jacob's warm touch around me once again? Will I ever feel William's gaze on my face ever again? These questions, seem to have no answers. I ran through the trees, searching for a scent. Searching for a sign of William or Kaleb.
William's POV
This will end somehow. It will. In my head, I know how this is going to end already. Renesmee. I saw her in my head a million times. She's always in my thoughts, because I cared for her. I know this is the end. I want this to end. All of this to be over. The safety of the Cullen family is all that mattered right now. Even if it means my life, I will risk it. Nothing matters. I want Renesmee to be safe.
"So, this is how it's gonna be? You're going to die for the Cullens, and allow me to live? Well, that seems likea perfect plan. For me, that is." Kaleb said, snickering. I watched a horrible expression plaster his face. His face, that face, was also mine. Except his is different. It was like a rubber mask covering his face. I wanted to pull it off, and hope that he would do good. But that seemed impossible, for well. He was Kaleb. A man like no other. If he even was a man.
"I'm not.. I'm not going to let you hurt them any further Kaleb." I said hoarsely with my remaining strength.
"It's over, my twin. For good. You will never live to see the light of day." he said. I felt my head feeling lighter, and lighter. No. I can't die yet, I told myself. I cannot abandon the Cullen family in a time where Kaleb is still walking this planet.
"Stop it, right now." I heard a voice say. I turned my head, and saw another figure. She was short, with pixie like hair. Her legs had open fractures that looked horrifying. Yet, she was still standing. Her teeth and clothes were smeared with blood. She snarled at Kaleb.
"Why, hello there. I forgot about you three for a minute." Kaleb said. Three? What three? Oh. It must've been them. The missing ones. They.. they were here, weren't they? I couldn't tell.
"Well, I hate to break it to you, but you three have no power against me, Miss Cullen. Especially since that one's blind."
"My name is Alice. You have no right to say my last name, I won't allow it. You let him go right now."
Alice. That name sounded familiar. A name I have heard before.
"And I am not blind, not anymore. Your powers have nothing against us now." the other woman said.
I forced my eyes opened again, and saw the other one there. Jacob, I assumed. I examined him carefully. He was Renesmee's love. He was muscular, but from the way he looked, he looked weak. Dark circles surrounded his eyes, he was unnaturally pale, and he had cuts and bruises all over his pale body. He was only wearing shorts. He was staring blankly at me. He knew, I assumed. He knew about us. But Renesmee belongs to him, now. They belong to each other. I have nothing to do with them.
Renesmee's POV
I stood behind the trees, listening to their conversation. I couldn't believe my ears. Alice, Mom, and Jacob. But there was something different about him. He looked weak, and hungry. His face was unnaturally pale, and he was had cuts and bruises everywhere. He was hurt! But they were there. I couldn't believe it. I wanted to throw my arms around Jacob. I heard growling and snarling. After a while, something smashed against the tree that made me fall. I was revealed to them to see. I saw their expressions go blank as they saw me. Kaleb growled when he saw me. He started charging. I felt myself being knocked to the ground. My back was smashed against a rock. I screamed in pain. Then, I heard a large growl. A wolf growl. I saw Jacob, in his wolf form chew at Kaleb's neck. He winced. In the distance, I saw William slowly getting up with the help of Mom and Alice. I got up to help Jacob. As I approached, Kaleb jumped to his feet and threw Jacob out of the way. Kaleb charged after me, and tackled me. I felt my feet rise off the ground. There was a sharp pain in my head. I screamed. I closed my eyes, and it was gone. I couldn't feel, I couldn't see..
"Renesmee." I heard my mother's voice. I opened my eyes. I immediately felt the throbbing of my head. There were tears in her eyes. Something has happened.
"What? What's wrong?" I said hoarsely. My voice cracked. I looked at my Mother's hands, and they were covered with blood. Blood from my head.
"Are you okay?" She asked.
"Yes, I'm fine." I said. I slowly got up. The day was darker, and it had started raining. My hair was wet, and I stood up. I gasped with horror. Kaleb was lying on the ground, a tree branch stabbed through his body and through his head. It was a disgusting sight. On the other side, was.. No. No. This can't be happening. No! I ran. I ran. I paid no attention to the pain in my head. It was William. He was on the ground. Breathing in and out slowly. Wheezing.
"No, please, William." I cried. He was hurt!
"I saved.. I saved you guys. Everything will be.. okay, now." he said through short breaths. Tears rolled down my eyes.
"No! Nothing's going to be okay! William, please, don't do this to me." I said. My eyes filled with tears. The rain splashed on his skin, and on his head. I noticed that part of his left hip was missing. I cried with horror.
"Renesmee, I will always love you. I don't have to be alive to be with you." he said. He shut his eyes.
"No, no, no! Please! NO!" I screamed. I repeated these words over, and over again. But these words wouldn't bring him back. He was gone. His hands were colder than ever. I cried. I dug my face into his wet body. Blood all over the place. It was over. Things were different now. He was gone. I was to never feel his gaze on me again. His warm eyes are to never be set on me again. His soft, cold touch, gone. I felt warm arms around me. I turned around, and saw Jacob. I cried onto his shoulder. I had lost too many this year. It was all because of him. The one man, who had ruin my life. In the end, it all came down to one thing. What caused all this. It was the hate between two brothers. A hate that had never been settled. A hate that caused the life, of my love, and my Grandfather. A hate that affected my life in so many ways. It was over. Done.
