My dad took it pretty hard, but I knew he would. Seth said he was pretty messed up, and when he came over, Alice and I went out with Ness. Alice had had another vision, and she could see that Edward and Jasper had a few people with them. She didn't recognise anyone but there wasn't enough to cause a problem. It was two days until they arrived.
Ness was running around and we sat watching her. We were in our meadow, and watching Ness. We had countless pictures of her, thanks to Alice. Ness sat down, and Alice looked at me and picked up the camera. She took a photo of Ness and showed it to me. It was bright, and it didn't effect her skin at all. She thought the effect it had on ours was ... Well, she loved it and found my ability funny. She knew about Alice's gift and didn't say anything when she had a vision.
Alice kissed me, and leaned against me.
We spent a little while there, and Alice told me that Charlie had left. So, we went back to the house. Everyone was there, and we sat in the living room. Ness sat on Esme's lap, and I asked about my dad.
"He's taking it pretty badly, but we've told him we're leaving. We've organised something. He asked about a funeral. Don't worry about it, if we don't do something, he will get suspicious."
I nodded, looking at Esme. She explained everything that was set up for the next day, apparently. I looked at Alice, wanting to know why she never told me.
"You had enough to worry about, without that. I didn't want you to worry about anything else."
I shook my head, and ran my hand through my hair. I could understand that, but I would've like to know something.
"I know."
The next day, everyone had to leave. Charlie thought Jasper and Edward were visiting relatives, so it wouldn't look odd if they didn't turn up.
So, I got to spend some time along with Ness. I sat down on the couch, and Ness looked at me.
"Mommy, where is everyone?"
"They're gone out, they'll be back soon."
She dropped something and I used my ability to make it float in front of her.
"How do you do that, mommy?"
She sat next to me, and I looked down at her.
"Everyone's different, Ness. Remember what I told you about momma's gift?"
She nodded, and smiled.
"What about momma?"
"Well, everyone's different. She can see what happens if you decide to do something and I can do this."
Ness thought about that, and I waited to see if she understood.
"But, she'd see if I changed my mind right?"
I noticed Alice walk in, and knew she'd heard everything. She stopped, not wanting Ness to know she was there. I turned back to Ness, and answered her.
"That's right."
Ness understood, and hugged.
"I love you and momma."
I kissed the top of her head, and looked Alice.
"We love you to, Ness."
She stood up, and saw Alice. She ran over to her and Alice knelt in front of her, hugging her.
Everyone else was back, and Ness spent some time with Uncle Emmett. We went out for a walk, and I grabbed Alice's hand.
"So, you heard that?"
"I did."
I stopped by the river, leaning against a tree. She stopped, looking at me.
"She got a little confused, and I explained it to her. She understands now."
She nodded, and we kept walking. She told about everything that had happened that day.
"It was hard ... Pretending to be your best friend."
I listened to her, thinking thinking about that. I stopped, pulling her closer to me and kissing her.
"I know, pixie. But, I couldn't do this if you were my best friend though."
I kissed her again, and she froze. I knew what that meant, and kissed her cheek. She thought what she'd seen was funny, and I waited for her to tell me.
"Emmett's plotting something. Just don't go out by the river by yourself."
We were at the back of the house and I heard a groan from upstairs, followed by a slap.
We walked back inside, and sat down. Ness sat on Alice's lap, and when Alice had a vision, Ness done what I had and kissed her cheek. She'd seen me do that and I thought it was cute that she had done that.
She seen Seth asking his mom to look after Ness, and she agreed. I thought Seth had already asked, but apparently he was making sure everything was OK.
Seth arrived a little while later and brought Ness to his moms. Everyone was in their rooms, and I sat on our bed with Alice on my lap.
"That was cute, when Ness kissed your cheek."
I kissed her and looked out at the forest.
"Yeah, she's seen you do that though."
We spent the evening talking about the next day, and what would happen. I wanted to get hands on Edward and make him pay.
The next day, we went out to the field Alice had seen and waited. I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her closer to me. Seth, Jake and the packs had agreed to help.
"They're close."
I looked at her, and waited. Then I heard them. Edward and Jasper led a large group of vampires into the field. And after some attempts at reasoning, the fight started. Edward went straight for me and I saw Alice fighting Jasper. Edward couldn't read my mind, so he didn't have that advantage. I grabbed him, but he threw me off.
"Why? What's so special about her?"
I punched him, slamming him into a tree. I wanted to make him pay for what he did to us.
"She, unlike you, doesn't need to control everything I do. And before you start talking about crap, about us raising our daughter, she's perfectly happy where she is. Nothing will ever change that. And by our daughter, I mean Alice and I, NOT you."
That annoyed him, and he started to get sloppy. I knew what I was doing, thanks to the others. Plus, he didn't know about my gift.
He tried to grab me and I stopped him. I slammed him against a tree, and punched him. He tried to fight me, and I responded by taking his head off. I looked around and saw Alice fighting with Jasper. He wasn't doing well, she grabbed him and he tried to fight her. Someone grabbed me and I grabbed them. She had long dark hair, and it didn't take me long to get rid of her. I looked up, and saw Alice taking Jaspers head off. It didn't take us to long to get rid of the others.
One of them grabbed Seth and hurt him. He whimpered and I grabbed the guy he was fighting. I checked on Seth, and when everything was over, Carlisle checked on him.
"A few broken bones, it'll heal soon."
Seth shifted, and I helped him up. He limped and I helped him back to the house. He lay on the couch, and I called his mom to bring Ness back.
I sat down in the armchair, and Alice sat on the arm of the chair. I thought about seeing her fight him, and what Edward had said to me. Everyone else was talking, and I looked at Alice.
"I meant it. What I said to him, I meant it. Every word."
Alice kissed me, and Sue arrived a little while later with Ness. I thanked her for watching her, and she asked if everything was taken care off. She knew what had happened, and I told her that everything was done. She saw Seth had hurt himself, and after talking to him, she left. She knew he would heal pretty quick, and wasn't worried.
Ness ran over to Alice, and pulled her down into a hug.
"I love you, momma."
Alice looked at me, as she picked up Ness. I grabbed the camera and took a photo as Alice kissed Ness' cheek.
"I love you to, Ness."
Next chapter is the Epilogue.
