Alice watched as the expensive looking black car slammed on the he breaks and slid sideways. Obviously a vampire driving, a human wouldn't have had the reaction time to stop the car from sliding off the road. Instead the car spun to face them directly. Alice couldn't have done it better herself. She thought with slight amusement. The other car stopped much more slowly, made aware of something by the fact the first one stopped so suddenly. The blond haired boy, the one Alice could see the future of the easiest, or most frequently called something to the black car in front. Alice didn't bother to let herself hear the words. Then the male vampire glanced our way and got back int he car quickly. Both cars pulled into the parking lot.
A whole group got out of th the one car, six of them, in that small thing? wow. Alice thought, the leader was still in his car, but a redhead skipped forward, obviously trying to be friendly. Alice slid off the hood of her yellow Porsche as the female spoke. Well they were just passing through, that was good. Emmet said something, then Rose. Alice decided to be the bold one.
She skipped forward, her liquid movements easily better then the most graceful and skilled human dancer. She stopped about ten feet from t he red head, a sweet, innocent smile on her face. "Hey.. We took you by surprise?" Alice asked, with a small giggle as she purposefully glanced over the redheads shoulder at the black car, that still held the red eyes leader. "Imagine my surprise when I walk through the forest and hear a whole coven of vampires! if it were possible to give me a heart attack I would have had one." She replied. To nervous to extend her hand in welcome, but not nervous enough to show it. The sweet smile still on her face. "Alice Cullen. By the way." She added and did a curtsy type dip, though she was wearing tight jeans. She could feel jaspers eyes burning into her back, ready to rush to her side in a millisecond if they made one wrong move. Alice noticed briefly that the red eyed one was looking at Bella, probably confused. You better not think what James was thinking! Alice nearly shouted in her mind. She wondered for an instant if Edward had heard her or if he was to busy surfing their minds. "May I ask who is in your coven?" She tried to be politely interested, instead of overly interested as she was, she wanted to know if she'd heard of any of them. Doubtful, a coven this large? If they had managed to keep hidden then none of the members would be well known. You would think anyways.

Rosalie came up and shook hands with the friendly red head. "Rosalie Cullen and this is Emmett", she said pulling him up. Edward, look at the one in the car. He is staring at Bella, Rose thought fast. I think everyone seen that, but to make sure if he didn't. Rosalie stepped back and let everyone else through.

My eyes narrowed slightly. I could see their curiousity burning in them. I allowed Aislinn to be the spokesperson and so far she did an exellent job... I wondered if she saw the human with them. I hoped Evelyn was keeping a close eye on Leo. I was, too, keeping an eye on him. I watched him from the edge of my vision. Leo was not as strong as the rest of us. I was still much too curious to see the overly angered bronze-haired vampire protecting the human girl.
What? Did he think I was going to implode and take everything mortal with me with the black hole I create? Ugh. Even my thoughts were groing dry of humor.
I listened intently to the words they were speaking to Ash. She seemed a little more at ease but the wary stances of their coven and mine helped nothing.
A little black-haired female came up to Aislinn. I relaxed a bit. At least it seemed they wre trying to be peaceful.
"Of course you may ask." I head Aislinn tell the female who indroduced herself as Alice Cullen. There was nothing but cheeriness in Aislinn's celtic voice.
"My name is Aislinn Andaire. And behind me are Leo, Evelyn, Lyra, Vivian and Emily Andaire." Leo, Evelyn, Lyra, Vivian, and Emily moved foward to meet Aislinn's side as she spoke their names. Emily looked like she was going to collapse in fear. "And this is..." Ash trailed off. "Aries?" She looked at me, still sitting.
"Honestly Aries, get out of the car." Her eyes rolled. As if she was sharing a private joke to everybody outside my car that would embarass me horribly. I just glared at her. I hoped my gaze would burn her physically.
I ignored her though and I did a little soul searching. The blackness came back faster, with less concentraition then by the water. Exercising the ability helps. I have not done this in so long I realized, suprised. I had not needed to. My only company being my family. I knew all their secrets already.
I was not strong enough yet to stay here long. More exersice. It annoyed me how it seemed that other talents did not take away energy like mine does. But there I was, spiritually with them poking through them, searching. I gained their ages, their names, and their relationships with each other...
The girl boggled me. Yes, I saw her human soul just fine. But that was all I could do. Just see the outside. The inside... the deeds, the serets, her name even simple information like that I could not pry from her. I was irritated and my thirst made my concentration as such that I left the blackness. My eyes clinging to the color black as pitch. I felt oddly two-toned then. Not a spec of real color on me now. Black and white.
I watched my family...
"That's Aries Andaire. He's, like our... father." She glared back at me now. Only breifly. "I am not sure what his problem is." Emily did not looked bothered too much about it with the others.
Lyra spoke, "He's stubborn that's what." She laughed. "Aislinn here is like our big sister... Second in command you could say. Ignore him," She gestured with her thumb in my direction.

"Edward, look at the one in the car. He is staring at Bella." Rosalie thoughts trickled in. Yeah, thanks for the insight. I told myself.
I was standing further away from them than the rest of my family was. Bella was behind me. It seemed like her curiousity was raging. Either way, I did not speak. I was too busy picking their brains for information.
Their dynamic was amazing. Their ages ranged from 54 to... I couldn't grasp it. But the threat did not seem as strong from the others that approached when the red-head named Aislinn... the family called her Ash... introduced them she was the oldest. Exluding the red-eyed one... She has an abiliy I have never heard of. She can see truth when it is spoken to her. How odd. Emily, she was absolutely terrified of us. I caught glimpses of a dark past that may have broken her, she was telepathic... Leo, the youngest was still fuming slightly from the stunt their leader had pulled. He had an odd, slight gift. It was kind of like constantly reading hidden omens of sorts to figure things out. Evelyn was watching Leo. Watching his every move. Her mind bounced from irritation from what seemed like her mate Leo's action to their leader to Bella? I dove in. Ah... Leo is not as strong from the temptation as the others. That is good to know. Lyra was full of sarcasm and playfulness... Vivian, the tall and slim black haired one. Seemed to be the most observant of them all. She took in everything. Her surroundings, the words around her, the gestures. She was planning for hostility. That is what she did though, I could see it. She studied matial arts, she loved a good fight. But she also knew when it was needed and when it was not. So far, it seemed we were on the safe side. From those six, at least.
"Bella?" I bent down and whispered in her ear very quietly. "I want you to try not to fall down, scratch yourself, do something klutzy, or most important, bleed." I grinned. "I know you know this already. But Leo, he's the youngest. His will is terribly weak."
Carlise spoke when the others were done speaking. Interrupting me. He walked up to them, more confident than he was in the house. He was smiling. His gait stopped when he was within reach to shake hands with Aislinn.
"I am Carlisle Cullen." He introduced. "This is Esme." Esme walked up to greet them, smiling warmly. "Jasper." He gestured toward him. "And Edward and Bella." All their eyes fell on us. Great, thanks. "You think you had a scare when you saw us. When our Alice came running, telling us the news of travelers in the area, we were preparing for the worst."
I felt the cold stare of the one in the car. Aries. I hoped he would just stay there. I did not like the look he was giving Bella... My my lips pulled back over my teeth as I lowered slightly into a crouch. -Bad idea, I thought as I remembered the night James' coven had appeared... A growl rumbled silently deep in my chest. My returning stare was made of stone.
"Um." Aislinn spoke, "I do not think your boy should be doing that." She glanced at me, but telling Carlise.
ooc| Sloppy. I told the boyfriend I was giving the computer to him at 7. I was pushing it.

I felt absurd when it happened, the strangest sensation falling over me. It was like someone was trying to poke and prod at me, some unforseen force trying to break in on me. I let out a small gasp, feeling this odd sensation but pulled it away. I didn't have time for weird feelings. I lifted my eyes up from the ground, as Edward's velvet voice was close to me now. I scowled at the nerve of him, telling me not to be klutzy. As if I had any power over that! I snorted softly, it was good...showed no fear. I listened to the calm conversation circling around, not so nervous now. The gravel crunched under my feet as I moved a fraction of an inch. My eyes had strayed from the figure in th ecar but when...Aislinn, I believed had brought her attenttion back to him, mine followed.
His gaze was probing, searching amost from what I could see. Edward had slid down, taking a defensive position I had seen far to much. Aislinn's warning made me think too much of Laurent, the once ally...but now dead enemy. I shuddered, and put a hand on him. "Don't" My voice had a touch of hysteria to it, though I fought to keep it down. I didn't know if I had reached that level of control yet. That little prodding feeling pricked in the back of my head again, but I ignored it. "Edward, please." I said again, going to make a move around him when my ankle made a simple pop and I had the notion of falling sideways.
ooc: so..will she fall, or will she be caught...I'm not sure. XD will she be fine, or will she bleed. Not quite sure on that one either. XDDDDDDDD
ooc reply to Kal: Well I meant it as the gravel or something underfoot did something screwy and it caused her to pop her ankle and fall. Geez. Maybe I should re explain that. =/

Alice heard Aislinn (sp?) tell Edward it wasn't such a hot idea to be defensive openly. Bella seemed to think the same. The faint popping noise that would be impossible for humans to hear was loud enough fro Alice to hear. What the heck was that? Just as she turned to look at Bella falling the felt the tug of her gift in the back of her mind. Something was going on. Hopefully Edward would manage to catch Bella. Alice slipped into the darkness, the absent look taking her previously cheerful face, she stared blankly;y at the ground in front of her.
~ it wasn't the same darkness that Alice had been in all day, this was denser. A place she had been monitoring for a purpose. She'd been on alert for quite a while, viewing the Volturi's decision making, but waiting for one decision in particular. The small creature, Jane was in the room with Aro. He was speaking to someone else, less important, when he noticed her. "Why hello Jane. What brings you here?" "This is my home, I'm here so I live here." An odd question deserved an odd answer Alice thought as she watched closely. "What would you like Jane?" "I would like to call a meeting on behalf of Marcus, he wants to scent some Volturi to visit Forks to see if Bella Swan is still human. i simply need your agreement." Crap. Don't say yes! "Jane, of course thats alright with me!" 'Thank you. I shall go tell Marcus." Damn.
But it didn't stop there. Everything was a blur for a few moments then there was the image of a group of pale skinned, angelic featured vampires getting off a plane. Jane at their head. The sign that came into view when they got into the terminal.
Welcome to Seattle Below it was in many other languages, all meaning the same thing no doubt. The Tim eon the digital clock beside it said it was two A.M, the date said it was tomorrow. Why the hell didn't I see this sooner! Alice screeched mentally as she wheeled out of the darkness and back into her body~
She gasped in horror as she felt herself half slam half fell into jasper, who caught her easily and set her upright at the same time turning her so that he back was to the other vampires. His eyes were looking at hers, curious and worried. Alice stared back in utter disbelief.
OOC; Oh, you bumm lol 'a simple pop' 'cause you know her ankle would randomly just give out... Well it's happened to my friends before. I guess it's possible hehehe

I wasn't sure what to make of the Andaire's. They seemed pretty friendly to me, but the one in the car didn't ahve my full approval yet. I nodded to the Andaire's, but kept my eyes on the car.
But then Bella started falling. What was wrong? Would Edward catch her. And then Alice slipped into a vision again. Today was not the best day we've ever had. There were so many questions. 1, what was going on here? 2, would Edward cathc Bella & why was she falling? And then 3, what was Alice seeing?

ooc: Ugh. I'm not feeling it today. It was an odd work day, and I'm exausted. My creative flow flew out the window. I'm sorry but this post is going to hurt to read. I watched as the bronze-haired one, I learned his name is Edward, started to lean forward into a crouch. My temper has grown short from the burning thirst that antagonized me. This little meet and great has gone on too long for my tastes. I have absolutly nothing against the Cullens so far. But that Edward was bothering me... I heard the human girl pleading with him to stop.
With supple, agile movements I quickly got out of my car. I slammed the door, sending strong tremors through its small frame. Before there was any sound of the car door slamming I was standing next to Aislinn but not facing her. My body faced Edward, my black stare boring into his. I allowed a growl climb from my chest and into my throat. A warning.
My family stared at me, wide-eyed. Evelyn looked very annoyed with her arms crossed. Turning slightly away from me. Emily stood directly behind me. Like if I were a sheild.
But as I moved from my car. The girl behind him was falling. I had not caught what made her fall... Edward's eyes were on my movements. Moving with me in defence.
ooc: Ha, ha, ha! A simple pop.. a random ankle give-out. Oh if I had a dime for every time that has happened to me... really. I'm a klutz.

I ignored what the red-head had said. Oddly enough, she reminded me of Victoria. Images of Victoria... images of what Victoria wanted to do with Bella... it made my anger boil. My jaw tensed... my body was tense. Tendons straining against my pale monster skin. Turning even whiter around bone. I felt a hand on me. Warm, conforting... my love. "Don't." She pleaded me. I wondered if her thoughts laid where mind did. "Edward, please."
I could not bring myself to believe what I had saw. I am so very stupid. How the hell could I have put Bella in more danger? Oh yeah, my -bad move. My body moved in time with his as he left his car. I heard a low, gutteral growl eminating from him... His black thirsty eyes, the purple shadows deep benieth them. He gave me an odd look...
... wow. I was so focused on the albino vampire that I did not turn around in time to catch my lamb. I tried, but the way I had caught her arm would have hurt her more if I did not let it slide through my hands. I jinxed it, no I cursed it. I cursed myself for doing it. I shouldn't have said anything.
"Bella, Bella!" I said too-quickly in a frantic voice. "Are you okay?" I bent over her, my back toward the crowd. Couched low to her on the gound. My cold marble skin felt like it was on fire as I tried to help her back up by her arms. Her warm skin making me melt all-over. I tried to be ever so gentle. I felt hideous for not paying better attention to her... I could have caught her...

I thought for a moment I was saved, having felt Edward's cold hand grab my arm but then he had let go. I wondered why, but then I crashed. My head bobbled against the gravel, giving me an instant headache. My ankle hurt quite badly, as Edward tried to hoist me back up.
“Ah…that was stupid.” I muttered, pain riding up my leg. I leaned against my lion, and tried putting my foot down, I couldn’t. I tried to inspect damage on myself. My jean-clad legs were fine, unscathed, thankfully.
My arms were a different story, having left my jacket home in Edward’s rush to get to the Cullen’s house; some light scrapes littered them. I couldn’t see any that were bleeding, again I felt thankful. My eyes looked up at Edward, even now a smile touching my face. I could feel a stinging pain on my cheek. It was hurt too.
“You jinxed me.” I accused half-heartedly. I looked away from my other half, towards Alice and the others. Alice was not where I had left her a moment ago.
“Alice?” I said concerned. I tried to escape the snare that was Edward’s arms, but the moment I put weight on my ankle I gasped in some pain. It didn’t hurt too badly, but it was enough. I noticed too, that the car that had held the reluctant vampire was now empty. He was standing with his own family now, but he was watching Edward and I.
How stupid was I? To come along, let alone fall? If something happened to my family now…it would be my fault.

ooc| Caution, spelling mistake zone. Enter at your own risk. I could smell the blood nearly instantly. The dryness of my throat burned with a new intensity. The pit of my empty stomach burned with a ferocious hungry ache. The venom started welling up in my mouth, coating my teeth and all other surfaces liberally. The venom did not symie the horrible burning sensation in my mouth and throat. The thirst made it feel as if my throat was a barren dry place, swelling shut, screaming at me to quench my deadly craving...
... I was superaware of Bella now. The hot, pulsing liquid... the blood... It would be easy for a moment. Her pale, warm skin on my dry, aching lips... Her Edward. Ripping me to shreds.
I knew better than that.
Though I had years of practice of avoiding these sorts of situations... Leo had not. It was a good thing for me to leave my car when I did. Leo was going before the eye could even think about blinking. ('Faster then a blink of an eye' would have been to slow.) I was on his tail just as quickly.
I knew Edward would be rushing at him to. But where I would stop before he was torn to shreds; Edward probably would not. I was not too fond of Leo's sometimes insubordination, but I was too fond of Evelyn's happiness to let it go that far. I did not wish to see Evelyn plotting revenge on this Cullen family... they had done nothing to deserve another hunter on them. It seemed like the trouble worshipped the girl.
I leapt. My fingers curled in a way that resembled claws. I landed, hands and feet first onto his back, pushing him over forward.
"Johnathon Leonardo Alexander!" I heard Evelyn shriek his human name. In astonishment.
He did not fight me at first. He struggled to escape my grasp. Snapping at me, snapping at the air, snapping towards the girl with the venom coated teeth I knew too well. His fingers clawed at the ground, leaving large scratch marks in the wet earth as if I were holding down a grizzly bear trying desperately to escape.
He turned on me. Leo is bigger than I am. More built, stronger. His intincts told him to destroy me. An obstical to his more desired need. I had fought him many times before. But usually I was better fed, stronger. I could take his soul. I thought sadly. That would make him so much weaker. More animal like, less of a thinking man. The idea hurt me too, though. And I knew better to follow such random notions.
It felt like there were two vampires on me...
I realised then that Edward Cullen had lunged forward too. His collision had knocked Leo's body off of me.
I heard a shriek of horror in the background... Evelyn? The voice was too soft? I did not look at my family as I now tried to save Leo instead of incapacitate him. I leapt forward again. Ripping the enraged Leo away from Edward. It was easier when he was standing. Leo landed on his back, a small flash of confusion in his eyes as a small breeze granted him an instant of fresh air. But it was all lost again as Leo jumped up. Edward was moving forward to meet him. But Leo came at me instead, I met him head on. Stupid kid.
There was a high keening sound. Metallic. I knew the sound very well. I was causing it. Leo yelled in pain and reconition as I held his right arm in my own, broken off halfway down of the upper arm bone.
Edward had an odd look of suprise in his face. Like I was insane for doing this to my own family member. Healing was a process. It would make Leo crabby (that is what I called his form of irritation) but I knew he would heal fine once I gave him his arm back...
... Leo was on his knees infront of me. Staring at me in shock for twisting his arm off like that. The look almost made me laugh. I knew the loony smile I was sporting would be odd in this situation. But I had an internal pleasure complex of being on top, the Alpha Male you could say. And seeing Leo look at me with fear instead of a quiet forced respect amused me to no end.
His arm twisted dully in my hand. Like it knew its owner had given up the fight for anything. I picked Leo up (forcefully guided him really) by the back of the neck as I started walking back to my cars. I walked to the Lotus first, steering a defeated (and now embarrassed-looking) Leo to put his arm in my trunk. I then shoved Leo into the back of the Audi. He pouted as if he were a child.
