Did anyone notice the new, improved chapter two? Well, its bigger & better, so re-read it! And thankyou for all the reviews, the make me want to write more, faster! Byt I didnt realise I was meant to comment back. But it'll take too long, so I'm saying thanks to everyone here.
" She did what? Yes, erm, yes I agree too. Well, if you think that's best. Erm, yes…NO! Sorry, erm, I'm not sure if that's a good idea. Alice can get, erm…claustrophobic in close quarters with others. Yes I understand that. Can we not just pay bail? Is there really no alternative? Well okay then. Yes. Thank you. Have a nice day too. Bye."
Carlisle hung up the phone and sighed, sinking into a chair next to Esme, with a defeated and exhausted expression on his face. He squeezed his eyes shut, and when he re-opened them, they blazed with anger. Edward, reading Carlisle's mind began slowly retreating backwards into the kitchen. Emmett, following Edward's example, followed, but clearly walking backwards proved too much of a strain, as Emmett crashed onto the top of the piano, falling backwards over it and banging each key, like an elephant trying to play Mozart. The piano had been broken in half, its insides hanging out like metal intestines. Piles of splinters, littered with white & black keys coated the floor. Emmett was lying in the middle of the carnage, thrashing around like fish out of water. Edward abandoned his escape route, and charged at Emmett, furious that Emmett had succeeded in breaking his precious piano. Bella, Esme & Rosalie huddled up on the sofa, ducking their heads to dodge the flying chunks of wood and buttons, that had been ripped off of Edward & Emmett's clothing. Rosalie began screeching at them to stop fighting and Jasper, practically choking on the tension, rage, and fear, turned to leave the room.
"STOPPPP!"
Carlisle rarely screamed, but when he did, it was so loud, and terrifying, that everyone stopped moving. Rosalie's mouth froze in a perfect 'o' and Jasper stopped walking. Edward paused, clutching a chunk of Emmett's hair in one hand, and one of his feet in the other. Emmet stopped thrashing, and turned to face Carlisle, still holding Edward's left ear.
"Do you lot have no ounce of compassion, or regard for the seriousness of the situation? Alice is in prison now, surrounded by HUNDREDS OF HUMANS. With human blood running through their veins. She might have amazing self-control, but who knows what Alice is capable of, when she's depressed, and angry? I just got a call from of the Wardens, to say that Alice had jumped on a security guard, stolen his phone, and logged onto Amazon online for her shopping fix! Next it wont be his phone, It'll be his right arm. And don't you snigger Emmett, this is all your fault!"
Emmett stopped laughing at once. 'haha' Jasper mouthed at him from behind Carlisle's back.
Carlisle spun round to face him
"Don't think you're off the hook Jasper, this was yours and Edward's 'brilliant' idea to leave her in there for a week. But now we don't even have the option to bail her out. Now she's in there for good, sharing a cell with a human! And there is NOTHING we can do."
Bella, who had been quietly observing all this time, was confused. Honestly, with a combined age of probably about 500 years, they sure could be pretty dim at times. She raised her hand.
"We cant get Alice out the legal way, can we? But you're vampires for heavens sake. Surely you don't adbide petty human laws? Wouldn't it be so much easier, to get her out illegally? We could, well….smash in and....break her out?"
Carlisle thought for a moment, and then a smile crept over his face.
"You know Bella, that's not such a bad idea…"
Short chapter, but i was impatient to get into the real story. Review me please!
