My soul to keep

Chapter 8

Jasper and Edward held onto Emmett until the car carrying Alice and Rosalie was out of sight. Once he was free, Emmett turned to his brothers and growled with white eyes before charging into the forest. Jasper and Edward followed closely behind him.

Edward listened to Emmett's mind as they ran through the forest 'he's searching for a human to feed on. It sounds like Emmett but at the same time it doesn't. It's like he's just following his blood lush and there is no humanity left in him. He wanted Rosalie so bad because her scent calls to him more than any other' Edward said to Jasper

Jasper sighed 'the only Emotion I'm picking up off him is hunger. I feel no trance of Emmett in him' jasper replied

The smell of a human filled Jasper and Edward's scents causing them to run faster after Emmett.

Once they caught up with their brother. Emmett turned and growled before lunging forward and attacking Edward, who quickly dodged His blow as Jasper tackled Emmett to the ground. Edward and Jasper held Emmett down until the scent of blood was gone and Emmett's body went limp in their arms.

Rosalie stormed into her apartment followed by Alice. Nessie rushed forward when she heard her roommate shouting at Alice

'Alice can you please explain to me what the hell I just witnessed!' Rosalie ordered through gritted teeth

'what happened?' asked Nessie as she hugged a shaking Rosalie

Alice sighed 'I got a vision a few nights ago of Emmett killing a human..'

Rosalie gasped interrupting Alice 'he killed someone?'

'he wasnt in control of his actions Rose. It seems there is a creature out there with the ability to control vampires and it seems drawn to Emmett. We don't know what it is or why it needs vampires' Alice explained

'Emmett's eyes were different when I saw him chasing us' Rosalie said remembering the white eyes of Emmett's

'that's the thing inside of him controlling him. He didn't remember anything after the last time it used him. In my vision Emmett's eyes were white too' Alice explained again

Rosalie sat down on the couch with wide eyes 'I can't believe this! Two weeks ago my life was completely normal' she said has she rubbed her head

'Emmett loves you Rosalie. Once we figure out what this is we will stop it and you will be able to be with each other again' Nessie said while rubbing he friends back in comfort

Rosalie stood up 'I don't think it will work Ness. I don't want to be a vampire. I want a normal life, get married, have children and grow old. I won't have that with Emmett. And as you have explained when this Volturi find out about me I would have to be turn or be killed' Rosalie said sadly

'wait ro...'

Rosalie interrupted Alice 'no Alice. That's the way it is. I will tell Emmett once this is over that I don't want to be with him'

'but you love him Rose' Nessie said

Rosalie sighed 'yes I do but its not enough'

Rosalie walked away to her bedroom

Alice and Nessie glanced at each other 'give her time for it to sink in Ness'

Nessie nodded her head 'she won't change her mind Alice. She's very stubborn'

Alice winked and smiled 'so is Emmett!' she replied before kissing her niece's cheek and leaving the apartment.

Emmett ran to met Alice has she returned home

'how's Rosalie?' he asked nervously

Alice sighed 'shaken up, confused and angry'

Emmett's shoulders sagged

'give her time to think Emmett and to let today's events sink in' Alice simply said

'so you have some new information about this thing?' Alice asks changing the subject

Emmett nodded 'from what Edward read in my mind and the emotions Jasper felt when this thing took me over we have found something. Come Carlisle will explain'

Alice followed Emmett into Carlisle's study who was greeted with a kiss from Jasper

'everything ok?' he asked

She nodded before turning her attention to Carlisle 'what have you found?'

Carlisle sighed 'nothing good. We believe we have a soul eater on our hands. One that seems to be using Emmett to get to his prey. Human souls. From what I have read they usually devour the soul as a human dies. This one however uses a host to kill the victim then it takes the soul'

'when it was using Emmett i only felt Hunger and anger. There was no trace of Emmett's usual emotions' Jasper explained

'I believe when I listened to Emmett's thoughts they weren't his exactly but this thing controlling Emmett's blood lush. It wanted Rosalie. I think it's because her blood calls to you more than any other. When Rosalie got away it went after anyone it could get. When we immobilised Emmett it left and Emmett passed out' Edward explained

Emmett slammed his fists on the table causing it to crack 'how do we kill it?' he asked through gritted teeth

Carlisle sighed 'i don't know.. Yet'

Alice's face went blank has she got a vision

Rosalie was slamming her door to the apartment trying to lock it but the door flew open and she feel backwards. Royce charged in closing the door behind him and kicked Rosalie in the face before he ripped away her clothes

Alice gasped coming out of the vision and Edward growled after watching it in her head. They both locked eyes

'we need to stop this from happening' Alice thought to Edward who simply nodded

Everyone else watched the two silently communicate

'are you going to share with the rest of us what you saw Alice?' Carlisle asked

Alice looked down and Edward looked away

'no secrets remember' Carlisle ordered

Alice sighed 'i had a vision of Rosalie' she glanced at Emmett who tensed

'Royce is planning on attacking her' Edward stated

'when!' demanded Emmett

'tomorrow night' Alice replied

'Emmett we will find away to protect her' Esme said

'the wolves can watch over her' Bella said

'good idea Bells, I'll phone Nessie and tell her whats going on. Jacob can stay with them and protect them' Edward said

'if Jacob is there I won't be able to see what happens' Alice stated

Everyone sighed

'then we will come up with something else. I don't want us blind' Emmett demanded

'no Emmett, There is no other way we can protect her. We cant go there with this thing around. The wolves will protect her' Carlisle ordered

Emmett looked furious but eventually nodded his agreement.

Nessie explained to Rosalie about Alice's vision and the plan for Jacob and the wolves to watch over her

Rosalie stood and slammed around the apartment furious 'so not only do I have to worry about vampires and soul eaters, but fucking Royce as well!'

'Rose, Jacob and the Wolves wont allow Royce to get close to you. Jacob will stay here and the Wolves will patrol the area. they know his scent from the beach' Nessie explained trying to calm her friend down

'no Ness, i've had it!' Rosalie shouted before storming to her room and picking up a bag and placing it on her bed

'what are you doing?' Nessie asked

'im getting out of here! fuck all this shit!' Rosalie answered has she threw some clothes in the bag

'Please Rose! its not safe for you to be on your own' Nessie begged

'its not safe for me to stay Ness. im going back to New York. I'll transfer Colleges' Rosalie said as she picked up her bag and pushed her way past Nessie who was blocking her bedroom door

Nessie grabbed Rosalie's arm 'please stay Rose!'

Rosalie narrowed her eyes and pulled her arm away 'don't fucking touch me!'

Nessie backed away and watched her friend leave as her phone began to ring, a call from Alice.
