I was standing next to Emmett bracing myself for Bella's reaction when she found out why I acted so strangly. Maybe it wasn't strange for her anymore. I was always too overbearing. I couldn't help it... she was a damn danger magnet, that what she is.
I listened to the thoughts bantering it the atmosphere. Jasper's slight confusion. Carlisle internal debates. Emmett's thirst to crush before investigation. But all that paled in comparison as I listened to Alice's visions. I tried to see what she saw. I saw what frusterated her. The shimmering, quivering of thoughts... descisions. They would not stay still. I think I grew more frusterated then Alice at the fact her imperfect vision was doing what it was most good at, inperfection.
Esme came in the wash her hands. I knew she was listening in, so I know no one needed to repeat anything to bring her up to date. Her concern for Bella was conforting, but it did not aid my growing impatience. My hands balled into fist as we stood here debating on nothing. Going nowhere. I was nearly about to speak when Esme cut in.
"Meet them?" She asked in her kind voice. "Actually I think I agree with meeting them. The last time we ignored traveling vampires Bella nearly got killed. Maybe we should take charge and be up front about the situation this time?"
I growled. The memory of James... of Bella lying crumpled and broken on the floor of the dance studio in Pheonix... how I almost lost her. Her thoughts broke into mine though. And she did have a good point. I stared at her. Comprehension formed to her features as she understood that I was listening in.
"Seven, Alice?" My eyes did not leave my maternal figure. "Are you sure it is seven?" My voice was severe. "Esme remembers how the Volturi are the only coven larger than ours." My eyes shifted to Carlisle. "I am uneasy with the fact that they remained hidden from common knowledge of another coven in existance this large." I did not like this... Especially since Alice's visions are betraying us. How infuriating!
"Fine!" I nearly shouted it. I can tell my lack of feeding was fueling my temper. The dark circles under my eyes bore heavily from my gaze. "Someone needs to stay here with Bella, then." I looked at Bella just waiting for her to protest with some kind of 'I want to help' nonsense.
Before I could judge her reaction though, Carlisle spoke.
"Now wait." He looked at me. "If there are seven of them. If they are hostile. We need everybody there. Seven vampires here, seven vampires there."
I fiercely interupted him. Nearly roaring, "IF YOU THINK I AM LEAVING HER ALONE-" I wasn't able to finish...
"We need everyone." Carlise continued, calm as if I were a kitten trying to purr at him. "Bring her, too. She'll be safer if we can keep an eye on her. We'll be safer if we try to keep our numbers as even as possible. We don't even know what they can do. Or what is keeping Alice from seeing clearly."
I glared at him. My lips tried to curl up over my teeth in the fury I was trying to restrain... He had a point and I shut my mouth.
"Alice?" I asked. "Where do we meet them? I'll take the Volvo, since it seems Bella is comming."
ooc| alright... so. It is nearly impossible to swoon, control hyperventalating, roleplay only the hottest creature that ever existed while trying to ignore my boyfriend's nags for me to get off the computer. Make what you will of that. Oh... and I am dead tired, excuse the typos. I am not fixing them. And another thing, Zo is gone for the weekend. Lets not get too ahead of ourselves. I am in no real rush. And Edward needs his Bella.

"What?!" I shouted, getting quickly to my feet. How could he keep something like this from me? I thought when I had ageed to get married to him in August we would tell each other everything? I glaed down at my engagement ring for a moment. I looked between him and all the Cullens, angry, and somewhat frightened. I should have already gotten used to this type of thng. I was always seeming to bring some sort of danger down on us. I was still standing, my fists clenched tightly together.
Esme walked in with dirty hands, which she washed quickly and retuned to us. I listened as she spoke about going to meet them. A sense of frenzied panic washed through me. Then I heard Edward's remark on what Alice had said. Seven vampires heading for Forks. I sank back onto the couch, head in my hands. My friends...Charlie, My family.. Charlie!, I was on the verge of bursting back up off the couch when Edward spoke.
"Someone needs to stay here with Bella, then."
Oh no, he wasn't leaving me here.
"I'm not staying behind!" I started when Carisle quietly said.
"Now wait. He looked to Edward, "If there are seven of them. If they are hostile. We need everybody there. Seven vampires here, seven vampires there." I nodded in fierce agreement. But Edward the Edward roared in anger. He was right, I wouldn't stay here alone either. I was going with them.
"Besides, even if I was here with or without you all, I'd find a way to come. I'm pretty sure even if you locked me in a room, I'd find a way to get to you." I said, crossing the room to Edward, leaving Alice behind on the couch. I took his hand, smiling softly. I was grateful to Carlisle at this moment. I wouldn't have let them go without me in any case.

Alice was frustrated. What the hell was keeping her from seeing what their futures were exactly? it wasn't indecision, she'd seen that before, this was different. But she knew how many there were, how many options she had to choose from in their coven. There was seven of them. Without warning Alice was suddenly calm and jasper was there beside her, his arm around her shoulders, his liquid golden eyes focused on her, worried. Alice stared back fro a moment they refocused on the conversation. So the Cullen's we going to meet these Vampires, and they were bringing Bella? Alice didn't agree with it, but Edward wouldn't leave Bella, and they needed Edward there. Bella would have to come. "Alice? Where do we meet them? I'll take the Volvo sense Bella is coming." She still couldn't believe Edward was willing to endanger Bella. But Carlisle was right - if there were seven the whole coven would be needed.
~ For the third time in a short ten minutes maybe the absent look came over her face. Jasper's arm was still around her but Alice became unaware of her surroundings as the blackness swelled up on her. She paid no attention tho the brightness of her family and moved directly to the group that she was now pretty familiar with at the seven new vampires. She tried the blond haired one, he had no idea where they were going, he was just following the road toward Forks, there was a dark car speeding out of view around the bend. Alice exited that future and unwillingly moved to the leaders dark colored future. Alice slipped into seeing his future more easily this time - he looked at one of the mirrors, his eyes were darker then they had been a few moments ago when he had been waiting in the car. So his talent took from his strength? Maybe the thirstier he got the less easy his talent was to use? Or something along that line. Well that was good news. Except for the fact that Bella would be with t hem. Crap. Just as the tugging set in she saw a sign Welcome to Forks. And a view of the park. So they'd be near the park. She felt the tugging sensation and the view began to blur, Alice moved out. The feeling made her nauseous. Just for the heck of it she began to explore the others. There was nothing really interesting. And then she came to the last one, a reddish tainted one, she let herself sink into it. But there was nothing. There was only one way that was possible. Werewolves. What would this Vampire be doing with the Werewolves? Alice wondered, as she withdrew, there was nothing to see with her and she left quickly. Retreating back to her body she gasped quietly. ~
"Yeah there are Seven. And near as I can see they'll be in or near the park." She said, her voice was calm, which was exactly how she felt, thank you Jasper.
"But there was something more..." Alice trailed off as she let her head rest against Jasper's shoulder and stared at the ground, she wasn't sure if she wanted to say it. Edward would announce it anyways, so why should she try to hide it? Edward, you tell them. One of the Vampires will somehow be involved with the Werewolves in the future. I don't know how that's possible but thats the only thing that explains the lack of future I saw. She thought as she inhaled Jaspers scent, which just helped to calm her more.
"Well?" Jasper asked out loud, obviously wondering what Alice hadn't mentioned. Then he sighed. "So we meet them at the park. All of us. And confront them, this is our territory and we intend to keep it that way correct?" Jasper asked, he was beginning to sound like Emmet, eger to go out and hit someone. Alice sighed almost contently. She knew she should be afraid or something but that was impossible at the moment, she contented herself with watching everyone else. Until they got moving there wasn't;t much more she could do, the decision o fight or talk Hadn't;t been made yet so that was no help, and the intruding coven was going to be in or around the park, that was a general area and they wouldn't be to hard to find, especially when said coven saw the Cullen's, they'd be bound to stop and be curious right? OOC: Hope y'all don't mind he fact that i Incorporated the 'Eye for an Eye' plot line into the future-seeing part..I just thought that would make it a little More interesting..

ooc| Of course not. I'm Aries, btw. I have already received some confusion... I stopped looking at Bella what she started protesting. That was to be expected... always to be expected. It amazed me how some humans had no sense of self-preservation. Bella seemed to be their leader.
"Besides, even if I was here with or without you all, I'd find a way to come. I'm pretty sure even if you locked me in a room, I'd find a way to get to you." My girl had said comming towards me with that familier look of panic in her eyes. She took my hand, and I allowed it, gripping it tightly. Well, tightly for her. Sometimes she just smells too good... My body ached with the thought.
"Yeah I am sure you probably would." I told her, glaring down at her. But I set my mouth kindly. I did not want to make her more angry with me. "With a thousand new monsters trailing behind you." I added more quietly.
Seething, I watched Alice slip in and out of her exploring. This time, she was able to grasp a better look at their leader.
I nearly shuddered. I closed my eyes and my jaw tensed. I cannot... will not believe Carlisle wants me to take Bella with us. I glimpsed dark red eyes... Bella...
I was dwelling on the fact that these strangers were hungry. I was dwelling on the fact that these strangers hunted humans. I wanted to curse Carlisle for telling Bella she could come. I started to wonder if she really could escape a locked room...
"Edward," Alice's thoughts broke mine. You tell them. One of the Vampires will somehow be involved with the Werewolves in the future. I don't know how that's possible but thats the only thing that explains the lack of future I saw."
I scowed at my sister. Now why would I want to bring up the werewolves in front of Bella? Maybe start her convulsing over that repulsive... Oh, she did not say when they would be involved. Wait... It would not be now. Otherwise all out futures would be obscured. I stared down at Bella. My eyes soft this time. I think she was turning me into butter overtime. Still, if Alice did not want to say it...
"Alice claims that Dogs are invovled with one of their futures." I looked up at Alice. Glaring again. I knew when I said Dogs they would know what I mean. Whatever happened in the past... I still had no tolerence for them. "Personally, I do not think it will be now. Otherwise Alice wouldn't be able to see anything."
Again, my features grew soft as I looked down at Bella. I drew my car keys out of my pocket and kissed Bella on her forehead. I smiled at her, but it did not touch my eyes. I was not going to allow this pattern of danger grow into rutine... "Lets go." I started out the front door.
Carlise slipped out the back door. He was getting his car, too. Esme followed him.
ooc| Edward is more fun and challenging than I thought. It is hard to play him without crushing people's high expections of his glorious self. *hyperventalate*

"Come on Emmett", Rosalie Called in a singing voice. Emmett came booming down the stairs so fast that he was a white blur. Rosalie turned and headed for the door. Emmett reached out and put his hand on her shoulder. "What?", Rosalie said turning around sweetly. Emmett caught her in a soft passionate hug. Rosalie fell into his arms. She had never really seen him like this. He was always joking around. He hugged her tight, making sure she could feel how much he cared. It went out for hours it seemed. Then he slowly let go of her and caught her before she fell. "Wow", she said smiling. "What was that all about?", she asked. She stood up straight and kissed him.
"Rose, Listen.", she said seriously now. "We are going against 7 Vampires. We usually go against 4 or 5. This is big. We don't even know them.", he said. He turned his big back away towards her, so she couldn't see his face. "I'm not trying to turn all concerned or anything, but watch it. We don't know if they have extra powers, or anything.", Emmett said. "Anything could happen, don't let me lose you. Or lose myself.", he said turning. His face was very red, but Rose felt he was just concerned. She hugged him and took his hand and walked out of the house. She turned and kissed him. "I promise", she said.
They both walked over to the big jeep and hoped in. They didn't put the seat belts on, just because they didn't need too. Everyone else was gone. "We better get going", Rose said. Emmett nodded and took off out of the drive way.

Alice watched as Edward and Bella left, then Carlisle and Esme. And though the two didn't seem to notice them Rose and Emmett left. Jasper still had his arm around her and Alice was still resting her head on his shoulder. The sound of car tires screeching told Alice that Edward and Bella were leaving.
"We should probably go." Alice said as she got up, Jasper didn't try to restrain her. "Yeah, don't want to get left behind. This could actually be fun." Jasper's optimistic outlook seemed to encourage Alice. But she couldn't help but remember the dark maroon color of th leaders eyes. He at least fed on humans. And they were taking Bella! Before she could think of anything bad Alice made herself take Jaspers optimistic outlook, she grabbed his hand and pulled him forward. They ran, just a little to fast for human speed through back door and to the garage.
The Jeep the Volvo and Carlisles car were gone. There were other vehicles there, the yellow Porsche for example. Alices' favorite car. She fished the keys from her pocket and glanced at Jasper. "I'm driving!" She said, suddenly excited and zipped around the side of the car to the drivers side. Jasper was already int he passenger seat when Alice sat down. For a reason that had nothing to do with Jasper's talent Alice was happy. Well not happy but excited and almost happy. The key slipped into the ignition and the Porsche started. The engine roared to life and settled into the rhythmic purr. Alice remembered when she'd stolen a similar car in Italy. Ah, except for the reason they'd gone Alice had enjoyed that trip. especially the car. The tires spun on the concrete floor as Alice stepped On the he gas and the car jumped forward and out the open garage door. The Cullen's didn't really bother locking their doors or anything - they could track down anyone who got it into their heads to steal anything. Jasper, obviously influenced by Alice's new good mood turned up the radio, the music was upbeat and fast, the blond Vampire began tapping his hands on his knees as they sped down the road, Rose and Emmet's jeep just ahead. Alice honked the horn as if she thought they were going to slow, though they were pushing 120. OC: Shall we post in 'the town of forks'? Just say it' sthe park? Oh.. and can the Culens get there first?? hehe
