Me. The pixie. Maria was determined to kill me. I couldn't see myself important enough for her to want to. I was still wrapping my head around the matter when we got on the plane. I just couldn't see why she wouldn't be able to just pull Jasper into the idea. But what I didn't get most, was why she came then. Why not earlier? I'm sure she noticed Jasper gone a long time ago. So why'd she wait till just now to try to kill me? I didn't get it.
"What are you so frustrated about?" Jasper asked. This was one of the times I wish he didn't have his powers.
"Why Maria decided to come kill me now. Why not way earlier, when she found out? I just don't get it," I told him. He just looked past me out the window. Maybe he was confused about that too. I slipped off and had another vision.
The others were fighting the newborns. There were only a few left. I was seeing Renesmee, mainly. She was going up against a boy. He looked about fifteen, maybe sixteen. They were pretty evenly matched. The boy crouched, and pounced. Nessie leapt away at the last second. He looked frustrated, and was waiting for a good window for attack. Ness didn't give him the opportunity. She attacked, and they both got smacked into a tree. She began tearing at him, but he found his window before she could make any progress. He pushed her across the meadow, and she barely cleared a tree. Her arm hit it particularly hard, though. She screamed, and Jacob appeared out of the trees. He shredded the boy quickly, and carried a screaming Renesmee away.
"I think the fight at home went well. Looks like Renesmee got a broken arm, but there weren't many newborns left," I said. He nodded. The rest of the flight was really boring. I just stared out at the clouds. The white, fluffy, puffed up clouds. Clouds are made out of water and air. Among other substances and WHAT WAS I THINKING. I'd never been that bored before. I was actually explaining the atomic structure of clouds to keep myself occupied. Jasper and I usually had something to actually talk about. But not today. Maybe we were in shock?
Bella had come up to the airport in Seattle to pick us up. The drive home was just as silent. Esme welcomed us, blubbering on about how happy she was that we were okay.
"Where's Renesmee?" I asked when she finished.
"I'm in here!" Nessie called from the living room. I walked in to see Carlisle gluing a cast on her arm. It didn't look as bad as I thought it'd be, with how hard she hit the tree.
"Who knew trees could be such a hazard?" I joked. She laughed. I went out to talk to everyone else. Real great idea, Edward. Leave, we'll handle the newborns. Ha! Thanks a lot. Really, I thought. He kind of gave an apologetic smile. Barely.
"So, buddy. What'd ya score? Whole night, or a few hours…?" Emmett said. I growled at him, he gave a genuinely frightened look- he'd taken the punishment when he messed with my clothes, it was not pretty- and walked upstairs. Rosalie laughed. Jasper rolled his eyes. Renesmee walked out, with a bright green cast wrapped up to her elbow, and a black Sharpie. Jacob had already signed it- he drew a little cartoon wolf on the material on top of her hand. We all went through and signed the plaster. Emmett drew a cartoon vampire-I'm a sparkly vampire. Fear my glittery powers! he had captioned it. I laughed at that. My name was flowery and wavy, all in the nature of my personality. Then Nessie went back out to the kitchen to put the marker away.
Suddenly, I was at the top of a tree, right along the edge of the baseball clearing. Thunder was rolling off the forest. Emmett, Rose, Jake and Nessie drove up in Emmett's Jeep. Carlisle, Edward, Esme and Bella came in Edward's Volvo. Emmett was taking out baseball equipment, and Renesmee was just taking in the beauty of the meadow. Jasper climbed up quickly, and sat on a branch across from me. He just smiled, leaned over, and kissed me.
"Wow, Alice. That could be the most peaceful, yet sickening, vision you've had for the last month. When's the storm come, anyw-" Edward was cut off when thunder cracked from town.
"Let's go!" Emmett said. We all walked off to the garage.
