The Bouncy Bouncy Pixie

Alice POV

I'm not one to blow my own trumpet but being clairvoyant is the best "gift" any vampire could have – honest. Over the years I have thought about what it would be like to have a different gift but when you weigh all your options this one is top of my list every time. I can win arguments easily as I can see what exactly I need to do or say in order to win, also it makes for interesting blackmail in my family especially if I want to go shopping and no one will come and play. Up until now Edward has been the only person who has escaped this trick – being that he never went any where or did any thing in order for me to black mail him. Gah he is such a brooding vampire boy, ha-ha I once made the mistake to compare him to a vampire character on TV called Angel – what with the dark corners, the brooding and the hair – I came home from hunting to find all my clothes in a children's pool full of mud. Creative yea, funny no, a horrendous crime – most definitely!

But since I am me and I always get my way fate smiled on me one beautiful sunny day when I was out hunting with my Jazzy bear. I had a vision. Now I must add that it takes a lot to shock me – it would anyone if you had lived with Emmett and Rosalie for best part of a century! But what I saw knocked me off my feet.

I think firstly I should explain what I normally see when I have a vision – normally everything will go hazy and then my vision will clear with the exception of around the " edges" of my sight. Sometimes I see snap shots of an event or outcome (which I then have to piece together) but sometimes I see a whole 'scene' like in a movie. Obviously no one can see me in these visions as I'm not technically there I am just observing.

With this vision not so much. I was confused at first I saw a girl walking around our old house calling out for her mother, there was nothing to really tell me when this would be happening so I was going to have to guess that part. But then the vision shifted slightly and there stood Sofia – when I saw her I started to sob, Jazzy had by now found me where I had stopped and was holding me, waiting for it to end – she was part of the vision I knew that much but she couldn't be, she was dead, right?

Then the weirdest thing happened, Sofia had been walking behind the other girl but she had now turned to face me, she walked with purpose and stopped right in front of my view part.

"Alice, you are the only one I can truly rely on to make this work"

I was unsure how or even if I could answer her back, I tried thinking about what I wanted to say and hoped that it would work – note to self hope is a good thing – I heard my voice in my head the millisecond that I thought of a sentence.

"Sofia what are you doing here? What's going on? Is there trouble?" The words were just as quick as how I had thought them

"You need to help them Alice, before it's too late – they need to meet each other, they are the only ones that can save each other"

???? I didn't know what to say back to that, my silence must have been the indication she needed to continue unless she had seen the question marks in had conjured up in my mind!

"I have to be quick, I have waited so long to find her – longer than I am allowed to – but they must meet, they don't know it yet but they both play important roles in each others lives. I couldn't wait for a chance encounter any longer I needed to do something so I have" a grim smile spread across her face, I realised just how much I missed her.

"Sofia, please explain this to me why do they need each other?"

"They need each other in order to save them selves, trust me Alice please when the time is right I will come to you again but you must take any opportunity to get Edward back home – they need to meet and soon"

Well that would be easy I thought I will just show him what I saw and he will run home quicker than you can blink...

"NO" she yelled at me, making me jump slightly where I sat in Jazz's arms "he must not know any of this from you, I will be able to block this part of the vision from him and also your thoughts on this matter but you must not tell him what I have said"

"So I can tell him I saw you just not why or what was said?" I was getting confused again

"Yes exactly, but could you maybe give him a message from me, when the time is right? Tell him to trust his heart, and that I mean no pain when I block these things from him but some times life has to play out on its own and not mirror what it is we see" I did what I think was a nodding motion.

"Alice the only thing you must do is get them to meet, then it is up to them no help from your visions, guide him with your heart not your gift. Can you promise me that?"

"Anything for you Sofia you know that you're my sister, I will always do anything you ask" the sobs started again now, I didn't want this vision to end I missed her so much.

"Don't worry Alice, you will love this girl. Her name is Bella and you two are destined to be best friends" I grinned from ear to ear now "I thought I would give you something to hold on to Alice, dark times may be ahead of you, remember I love you all"

With that she was gone and I was once again back in the forest with a very distraught husband. After a lot of convincing and being very vague about my vision he let us return home. He wasn't mad or upset that I was keeping something from him all he knew was that it was about Edward and it was important that no one can know what it was about. He sensed how important it was and agreed not to mention anything.

I couldn't help it but I was in such a good mood, I was bouncing around the house with excitement which meant that Jazzy was too – sometimes his gift was a curse, if someone had a really strong emotion Jazz normally ended up in the same mood which meant sooner or later so would everyone else.

All I had to do was get Edward to go home, but Sofia already had that covered; it appeared that she had a few tricks up her sleeve that she neglected to tell me about. She had been well haunting Edward, telling him he needed to save Bella. Which made little sense as she had instructed me not to interfere that way, the only reason I could think of as to why she had gone against her own word was that something bad was happening and soon, which meant that Bella and Edward didn't have much time to have their meet and greet.

My visions were getting worse, they were becoming more frequent and leaving me drained, however it never changed it was always of Bella walking around our own home. It took every part of my self control not to tell Edward to get his cold butt back home already, that he and Bella didn't have time for him to sit here and 'think' about it any longer. Only I couldn't because then my cover as secret agent to the ghost world would be well not so secret and I had a feeling that that would be a bad thing.

It was bound to happen - I slipped - and he saw part of my vision, luckily the part where Bella was as usual walking around the huge house and that seemed to do the trick, his guilt went into overdrive (with maybe a small help from the Jazzy bear) and we were back.

I haven't stopped bouncing since.

I was a tiny bit annoyed that I didn't get to meet Bella properly but Edward was so dang rude to her that I didn't have to be psychic to see that some grovelling would be needed on his side to fix it. He was refusing his destiny once again and to be honest I was getting frustrated with it all, I was about to do something – what exactly I don't know – when Rosalie took care of the situation. You see after many years Rosalie has perfected the art of lulling people into the false sense of security and then BAM she pulls the rug out from under them. Now don't misunderstand me she does not do this with just anything, she only does it when she wants to use her gift, she can be almost as tricky as me but it was such a blessing in disguise today. She had walked in playing the "I'm on your side" card and then HA he was transported to Bella's home.

Rosalie floated back down the stairs with a huge grin on her face.

"He's going to try and dismember me when he gets home isn't he" still with a smug look on her face, but her eyes were changing probably the memory of my poor clothes entered her mind. I searched the future to help her since she had basically helped me.

"nope" I said popping the 'p' "everything goes quite well actually he will pretend to be mad, he'll rant for 10 minutes and then you say yea but how did it go and he smiles like a goof and goes up to his room – simple" I was vibrating where I stood with excitement, clapping my hands together thinking about what was to come.

Yep I really did love being able to see the future it made life a hell of a lot more interesting!
