A/N this one is a little short.
I made this chapter in Alice's POV, because it will help make sense of the story, she is great character, and I thought it would be fun to use her for this part in the story. Thanks so much for everyone's reviews.
Chapter 11 Evasion
Alice POV.
"Come on Jazz, I know you can run faster than that," I laughed as Jasper fell behind. We were racing to the closest prey, which happened to be just another deer. So, to make our hunting trip a little more exciting I had proposed a race.
Wordlessly Jasper picked up the pace, and before I knew it he was ahead of me. This was more like it, he was always too easy on me. I pushed my legs to move a little faster, and I began to catch up. I could see Jasper right ahead, smell the sweet scent of the deer, hear several small animals franticly moving away from us, feel the wind whip past me, and even taste the moisture in the air. Then suddenly everything I could sense was replaced. I heard myself gasp, and felt my legs stop moving, but I wasn't in the woods racing the man I loved anymore.
Instead I was near Bella's house. I watched in horror as Victoria was chased by Edward. She was leading him away from Bella's house. Then she lead him on a fake trail and went back to the house to catch Bella. After she had Bella struggling in her arms, Edward had found her again. The vision ended with Edward being lead to another well made wrong path. I heard myself scream to him, to tell him which way to go.
I realized I was not screaming to Edward, instead Jasper was in front of me looking concerned.
"What was it, what did you see?" he asked anxiously.
Jasper soothingly took my hand and squeezed it. I felt myself calm down a lot. "Victoria is going to lead Edward away from Bella, then kidnap her. The vision was very strong, which means this is going to happen any second, and she might even be leading Edward away right now," I spoke with a forced calm voice.
"Do you think we can stop her?" I could hear the panic sneaking in Jasper's usually smooth voice.
"I don't think we can make it to the house or Edward in time, but we might be able to cut her off. I could see which direction she plans to go." As I said this I started to run in the direction I continued to vaguely see Victoria move in my visions. Jasper followed closely behind me.
Jasper and I were both running faster than we had been when we raced. This was very serious, we could not let Victoria get away. I didn't want to have visions of Victoria killing Bella. I also didn't want to think about how much it would hurt my favorite brother.
"This is the area I can see Victoria running through," I informed Jasper when the surroundings outside my mind matched the ones in the visions..
"Lets head toward Bell's house. maybe we can cut her off," he said.
"That's exactly what I was thinking." I could smell Victoria's and Bella's scents as we ran. I kept my eyes alert and listened carefully for any signs of them.
After a few minutes I thought something seemed wrong though. Was it just me, or did the scents seem to be fading? It was as if we were moving away from Victoria and Bella. I could hear Edward screaming for Bella.
"Crap!" I heard Jasper say angrily.
I felt pure dread take over. Somehow Victoria had succeeded. She had not only evaded Edward, but she got away from Jasper and me as well. I could hear Edward coming closer.I'm so sorry, I thought to him when he was close enough to hear me. She got away from us.
Edward appeared and stood next to us. "She had a sudden desire take Bella," he snarled through his teeth. This explained why I had not seen this soon enough. "I could hear she wanted to take Bella to avenge James..Since she saw James die, she couldn't wait until she would be able to follow through with some strategies she had been thinking about to try to get even." Edward was pacing now with his fists clenched. "She was going to try to make an army of newborn. . . "
Edward broke off after I began to see Victoria again. She had entered a half destroyed old abandoned house. I did not want to see the things that happened next, but I couldn't stop the vision. Finally the vision ended. I looked at Edward, knowing he had seen the same disturbing and horrible scenes I had.
He growled furiously, letting his anger out even with Jasper's best efforts. "We need to find that house!" he roared.
He now knew the way to Victoria as well as I did, and ran to find her. Jasper and I tried to follow his speed as he got further and further ahead, pushed by panic and rage. I really hoped we would make it to her in time. I did not want those things I saw become real.
Warning- The next chapter may be a bit dark, just in case anyone is bothered by painful events. I have not written it yet, so I'm not sure how bad it will be. It might not be bad at all. I'll try not to make it too bad.
