My Soul to keep

Firstly I would like to apologise for the huge delay in updating this story! I have recently moved House and started a new job, but things have calmed down so here is Chapter 7!

All Characters belong to SM, not me.

Chapter 7

6 pairs of Golden eyes studied Emmett quietly has he paced the living room.

Emmett growled 'I know what you are all thinking. I didn't kill him' He stated through gritted teeth

'no one is thinking that Emmett. At least we don't believe you were in control of your actions when the Human was killed' Edward said

'Alice explain your vision' Carlisle asked while placing a loving arm around Esme

'I saw Emmett stalking towards the human but his Eyes were different. They were pure white! He attacked the Human and drank him dry then the vision ended. I searched for him again but I couldn't see him for a while after the attack. Jasper and I ran to him as soon as we could and when we found him he was out cold' Alice answered while glancing at Jasper

'when we reached Emmett I felt a strange presence. I felt it's emotions or I should say they weren't really emotions but more like it's being. It's hard for me to explain but whatever I felt it was pure hatred and hunger' Jasper said with a hint of frustration to his tone

'it sounds to me from what as been said that Emmett wasn't in control of his actions. Which means there is something out there that has the ability to control him or any of us' Carlisle said worryingly

'we need to find out what exactly it is that's out there before it uses any one else' Edward stated

'perhaps the Volturi may know what we are up against' Bella suggests

'I don't really want to involve the Volturi but we will if we need to. Let's start by doing some research. Emmett I suggest you stay away from Rosalie and all other humans for the time being' Carlisle says

'I suggest that perhaps we all stay away from Humans. If it can control Emmett it could control any of us' Jasper states earning everyones approval

'I'm going to phone Nessie and tell her and the wolves to stay away until we figure this out' Bella says while walking out the room

Esme places her hand on Emmett's back comforting him 'we will find out what's happening Emmett. Please don't feel guilty, it could have happened to any of us'

'I just can't help thinking it could have been Rosalie. I would never forgive myself if I hurt her' Emmett whispered looking down

Esme opened her mouth to speak but stopped as Emmett's phone beeped.

Emmett pulled out his phone seeing a text message from Rosalie

I had a great time last night. When can I see you again? R x

Emmett sighed while texting his reply

We have a situation here. Not safe to see you at the moment. I'll explain everything soon. E x

Placing his phone back into his pocket, Emmett followed his family to the library.

After hours of research the Cullen's came up with nothing.

Full of frustration Emmett threw a book against the wall 'this is getting us no where!'

'please Emmett, calm yourself' Carlisle said while placing more books onto the table

'I agree with Emmett. Whatever this thing is it could be out there right now. I say we go look for it. Emmett said he felt a strange presence and I felt it too, So it might be located' Jasper said

'I agree' Alice said

'I think Edward, Jasper and I should go and search while the rest of you keep searching the books'

Emmett growled 'I'm going with you'

Jasper sighed 'ok, fine'

Rosalie sighed at the text she received from Emmett. What sort of situation? She thought. She throw her phone down on the couch next to her and sighed. She shivered slightly and sat up turning and looking around the room. The hairs stood up on the back of her neck has she felt as if she was being watched. She stood and walked towards the door to her room, lifting up one hand to check the lock, the door suddenly opened making her jump back

'Rose? Is everything ok?' Nessie asked has she entered the apartment seeing Rosalie jump back scared

'I'm fine.. I just felt.. It doesn't matter' Rosalie said ignoring the feeling 'what did you feel?' Nessie pressed on, knowing what had happened to Emmett and Alice and Jasper feeling a strange presence when they found him in the forest

'it was nothing. I just felt on edge like I was being watched. I guess I'm still jumpy from the whole Royce thing' she shrugged

Nessie thought for a few seconds then walked around the room. She didn't feel anything. Rosalie watched her

'what's going on Ness?'

'nothing, why?' Nessie answered turning and sitting on the couch

Rosalie raised an eyebrow 'because you are checking for something I can tell. I got a strange message from Emmett saying there was a situation and He can't see me'

'oh. Well don't worry about it, it's probably nothing' Nessie replied shrugging as she sat down

Rosalie raised an eyebrow at her but didn't press on instead she changed the subject 'do you drink blood? Since your half vampire'

Nessie's eyes widened 'err... I used to when I was younger but I tend to stick to a more human diet these days... Tastes better' she shrugged

'do you struggle to be around humans at all? Like the others?' Rosalie asked

'no. I can faintly smell Human blood but it really doesn't bother me. Dad.. Edward, explained to me that when he first met Bella, he couldn't be around her because her blood called to him. The more time they spent together it got easier' Nessie smiled

Rosalie nodded 'Emmett said that too. It's kinda weird to think that there is a part of him that just wants to drain me dry'

Nessie chuckles lightly 'yes well that may be the case but the humanity in him that he's held on to since he was changed stops him. He really likes you Rose'

Rosalie looked down and smiled 'I really like him too'

Nessie sighed as her face turned serious 'Rose, if the relationship works between you and Emmett, you can't stay Human. The Volturi won't allow it'

Rosalie's head shot up 'the Volturi?'

'the Volturi are like Vampire Royalty. They live in Italy. They make the rules that we follow and if we break them... They punish us. Human's aren't supposed to know we exist Rose'

'so to be with Emmett I would have to become a vampire?' Rose replied slightly in shock

Nessie simply nodded. Rosalie looked away in deep thought. She never thought that her being Human would be a problem other than her scent to Emmett. Did she want to be a vampire? Could she live forever with Emmett?

She quickly stood 'I need some air'

Nessie stood too 'Rose I'm sorry if I scared you'

'no.. Its fine. I... I just need some air Ness, I'm glad you told me now than finding out months down the line' she half smiled before leaving the apartment.

Rosalie sighed has she drove. What Nessie had told her had really hit home. Did she want to become a Vampire and live forever? Could she be with Emmett forever? They had only known each other a short time, even though he was all she thought about, she was sure she was in love with him. But could she give up her Human life for him? She always wanted to get married and have children, could she give up the option of children for Emmett?

Rosalie snapped out of her thoughts looking around. Not recognising where she was she slowed down. It was pitch black out and she could make out trees on either side of the road. Sighing she pulled over at the side of the road and picked up her bag from the passenger seat. Digging around inside she realised she left her phone in the apartment

'shit!' she cursed under her breathe as she got out the car to look around.

Glancing around in both directions she rolled her eyes

'Rosalie?'

Rose turned quickly hearing her name

'Alice! Thank goodness your here, I'm lost and...'

Alice quickly interrupted Rosalie 'it's not safe for you to be out here Rose'

Rosalie raised an eyebrow 'why isn't it safe?'

'a lot of dangerous things live in these forests Rose' Alice replied

Rose opened her mouth to speak but watched Alice stare into space

'Alice? Are you ok?' Rose asked walking slowly to her Alice gasped coming out of her vision

'we need to get you home Rose, get in the car, I will drive' Alice ordered while she pushed Rose towards the car

'what? What's happening.. Wait, did you have a vision? What did you see?' Rose asked has she got in the passenger seat

Alice got in the drivers seat and quickly started the car, turning it around quickly she drove quickly 'I'll explain everything when I get you home Rose. Put your seat belt on'

Rose sighed and followed her orders.

'things might get alittle shaky Rose, hold on and please understand what your about to see is not Emmett' Alice said not taking her eyes off the road

'what the hell does that mean?' Rose replied

Both women watched the road intently and Rosalie screamed has Emmett jumped into the middle of the road, Alice quickly swerved the car missing him and didn't slow down

'what the hell is going on? That was Emmett! Alice stop!' Rose demanded angrily

'just please trust me Rose'

Alice glanced in the rear view mirror seeing Emmett running after the car, she internally thanked Rose for having a fast car. She watched has Edward and Jasper jumped on Emmett dragging him to the ground and holding him down.

Rosalie turned watching Emmett struggling to free himself from Edward and Jasper, she gasped seeing Emmett's face, which was twisted in anger and she was sure his eyes were white.

chapter 8 will be up soon, which will be very exciting! ;-)
