Princess? What the hell? Since when is my name princess? I may have designer shoes and clothes but I’m far from Princess! “My name is Alice!” He smiled again “I know. But you’re princess to me.” Robert started chuckling. I turned to him. “What the hell is so funny?” “Just how clueless and dimwitted te are.” Clueless? Dimwitted? Oh no he did not just call me that! “Who are te call dimwitted te overgrown Neanderthal!” That slapped the smile right off his face. Jeremy turned to him and detto “Ouch! Kitty got claws and class!” He did not just call me kitty! I think he wants to baciare me. I stood on my tiptoes barely tall enough to reach his face. I closed my eyes and he did too. I peeked and they were closed Katrina was walking towards us and Robert ran to meet her. Perfect timing. So there I was on my tiptoes about to baciare him and Jasper was still a statue, I lifted my hand slowly to reach his face, I brought it as far back as it could go and……Slapped him! He opened his eyes and looked at me shocked. “Now, the successivo time te want to call me princess o kitty, make sure I’m not a warrior o a lion instead!” With that I started to walk away to meet Jasper. He got in my way. He grabbed my throat lifted my feet off the ground and detto “Where do te think your going Princess?” “I was planning on meeting my statue for a husband!” I spitted the words threw my teeth. “No you’re not.” “The hell I am!” “You will stay with me and baciare me.” He locked his blood-red eyes with me waiting for his command to connect with my thoughts. They reached it. I closed my eyes. Suddenly every part of me was leaning in to baciare him. I almost reached his lips when I opened my eyes I jumped out of his grasp and jumped on his back. “You know what my nickname is?” “No. But I’m dieing to know it.” He thinks I’m playing with him. Like as soon as I’m done playing with him I was going to baciare him. But here’s the thing, when your happily married te don’t want to baciare anyone but him. So I leaned in my head close to his ear and whispered Jasper’s preferito word. “Monster.” With that I jumped off his back and got face to face with him. On my tiptoes again. “Why would he call te that? te are an Angel not a monster.” “Oh, but I am.” I ran away from him. A good distance and waited for him to come meet me. He started walking toward me, perfect. Now I lowered myself into a crouch. I don’t know why but I could control myself enough not to run into his arms and baciare him. Katrina, Laura who was still screaming, Nala who stayed at the very opening of the tunnel, William who was holding Laura’s other hand, Jasper who was watching but not moving as he was told, and Robert who was laughing the whole time was watching from the sidelines. I stayed in my crouch, watching, waiting for him to meet me. He stopped a few feet from me.

“Well, armed and ready to fight I see. Are te ready?” I let a snarl rip threw my teeth. “I was born ready.” “Eager to be defeated aren’t we?” “Nope. Just ready to kick your culo in front of your brothers and sisters.” Another snarl ripped threw my teeth and I stayed where I was and was watching him run as fast as he could to attack, I closed my eyes and waited. Thank god Jasper helped me with this. As Jeremy was right in front of me still running, I jumped in the air and came down gracefully. He went right under me. Pathetic fool. “Well, we have a few tricks up our sleeves don’t we?” “Nope, just got a gift exactly like Katrina and William. I can see the future te know.” I smiled, ran straight to Jasper and pushed him. I was hoping he would fight back o sposta o something, but he stayed still and fell over. All I did was push a marble statue. “No, I didn’t know that. Why did te do that? Want him out the way so te can have me? te don’t have to do that, all te have to do is baciare me.” I crouched and growled. “I’d rather baciare Jacob!” He stumbled back. “Who is that? Another Boyfriend?” “Not on your life! He is a dirty, stinky, werewolf!” “Ouch! Why do te bother with him?” “Because he is my sister’s best friend and my niece’s true love! If I had to live with the smell then I will!” “Wouldn’t te rather baciare me?”

That did it. My mind couldn’t control itself anymore. I walked to Jasper and picked him up. “Jasper? I know te can watch this so, watch this!” I walked away from him. I turned around and made sure his eyes were following me. They were. So I kept walking. “Change your mind?” “Of course. Why baciare a werewolf when I can baciare a handsome vampire like you?” “Now, that’s più like it.” He picked me up in his arms. “ALICE! DON’T STOP! te Amore JASPER! STOP IT! JEREMY PUT HER DOWN!” Laura kept screaming at us. I didn’t care; all I know is that I was ready for this. I saw it happening, why fight it? He bent his head and I lifted my head. Our lips touched, gently at first then his was più eager, urgently. He held me like he was a prince who was sweeping me off my feet. I hope we were putting on a show. I returned his baciare and grabbed the back of his neck and made him stay here. This was great. This was the best thing I ever planned to do. If only all I had to do was baciare Aro and he would leave my family alone. “ALICE! STOP THAT! te STOP RIGHT NOW!” That wasn’t the voice I was expecting to hear. It was just Laura. So I kept baciare him. I kept baciare him but I focused on Jasper, waiting for his reaction. Here it comes in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!

Jasper picked me up and put me down. He turned to Jeremy and ripped him to pieces. Jeremy didn’t even have time to order Jasper to stop! Jasper turned to me and I knew I was in trouble. I hope he gives me enough time to explain. “You little, evil, manipulating….. And to think I thought te cared about me! When I didn’t think about leaving te for Charlotte! I thought te loved me! I...I...” He started sobbing. WOW! I did that to him? I looked around him to see what Jeremy was doing. He was trying to connect his arm to his shoulder, it wasn’t working. I started laughing. He grabbed me da my throat and lifted me off the ground. “You think this is funny?! te think it’s funny that I’m so hurt because te ran into that idiot’s arms and kissed him! Well? DO YOU?” I controlled my laughter. He was holding my throat so tight I could barely talk; I could see behind him, Jeremy was putting himself together and he finally put his arm together. “No. Jasper I’m laughing because I could see that fool putting himself together and failing horribly. I did what I had to, to free te from his little mind game. I figured that if my Amore for te stopped me from baciare him that if I did your Amore for me would snap te out of it. So I kissed him and waited for te to rescue me. Besides, he can’t baciare half as good as you.” I tried to put on my smile but he was starting to hold my throat tighter. It was hard to put a smile on my face; it was even harder to talk. I choked out the words. “Jasper? Don’t te believe me?” “I should but I don’t. Alice, I don’t want to believe you. Because you’re lying.” He let go of my throat and I fell to the ground and landed on my feet. Then he ran away. I didn’t know what to do. My only Amore just walked away. What was a girl suppose to do? I know what Bella would have done, she would have ran and ran until she couldn’t run anymore, I know what Rosalie would have done, she would have chased him done and grabbed him da the ear and pulled him home, I know what Esme would have done, well did, she would have ended her life, not knowing what to do next. I don’t know what I was supposed to be doing but Esme’s option sounded nice. But I stood there watching him until he wasn’t visible anymore. Robert ran to help Jeremy, Katrina and William snapped out of it and let go of Laura, Nala went back to the sewer to start a fire, and me? Well, I was still standing there. Then it hit me. He was gone. Gone maybe for good. I fell to the ground and put my head in my hands and started sobbing. What am I suppose to do now? I guess I should go home. I could tell them what happened and say I failed as an Aunt, a sister, and a wife. That I’d rather die with them than kill myself, but killing myself sounded good, I was welcoming death with open arms. Too bad the Volturi don’t come when te want them too. “Its gonna be ok te know.” She sat on the side of me. I wasn’t sure if it was Laura but maybe it was since she could be answering my domanda in my head. “It’s me. Laura.” Fine, it’s her! Who cares! My life just left and she thinks it’s gonna be ok. “I’m sorry Alice. But it was your plan.” I got to my feet, that was the last person I wanted apologies from. “GO AWAY!” “I am I just wanted to apologize. I didn’t know te two meant that much to each other. If te want I could make him come back.” That wasn’t a good enough apology. Plus I didn’t want Jasper to come back if he didn’t want too. “Jeremy! I don’t want your apology and I don’t want te to bring him back! I want him to come on his own! If te make him I’ll never know if he wants to be with me o if it’s because of you! And it wasn’t my fault! It was yours! te made him become a statue just because te wanted a kiss! te know there are other girl Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. besides me! I know another all girl coven! te could have Tanya o Kate! They both want a man badly! They baciare my brother’s feet just so they can get one kiss! He found someone else though! Instead of killing humans that smell good have te ever thought of not killing them? That’s what he did and he fell in love! He met his soulmate! Ever try that? Huh? No te didn’t! te are to busy trying to break up married Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. o trying to kill your sister when it wasn’t her fault! Carlisle’s father would have killed all of te even if she didn’t go meet you! He kills all families that are related to vampires! So successivo time shut your trap and try to make things better instead of worse!” I fell back to the ground and started crying, I wish I had tears! Just because we have to be perfect can’t we at least have tears? Laura picked me up and carried me to the sewer. This is embarrassing! “PUT ME DOWN! PUT ME DOWN!!! I HATE THIS PUT ME DOWN!!” “No, te are going to fall again.” “What in the hell happened to her?” “Jasper ran away.” “HE DIDN’T RUN AWAY! HE LEFT ME! HE LEFT ME!” He left me. The words started to sink in. I stopped crying. “He left her?!” “Katrina he left her?” “I guess so.” “That’s horrible!” “William?” “Yes Laura?” “You can live with us if te want.” “Sure thank you.” “William let’s celebrate!” “While Alice is like this? No, I don’t think so Katrina.” “Can te put me down now Laura?” “Yes.” “Thank you.” After she put me down I walked deeper into the tunnel. Then I realized I don’t know the way. “Katrina can te lead me to where te hang out?” “Of course Alice.” She caught up with me and we started walking further into the tunnel. “Alice?” “Yeah?” “Can te live with us? We saw te leave tomorrow night and we wanted te to stay.” “I can’t with Jasper gone I need to go home. They are all I have left.” “No, te have us.” “Not for long.” “Why?” “Because my family is sentenced to death and if they die then I will die with them and if da some chance they get to live then I’m taking Aro’s offer and I’m joining the Volturi. I won’t have anything to live for so why not?” “ALICE! NO! PLEASE NO! I see it and I don’t like it!” “Oh well! I’m giving up my beliefs! I’m going to drink blood and let my eyes turn blood red! I’m gonna give up fashion! I’m giving it all up! Don’t try to stop me! te got that?! Don’t try to stop me! I want to loose everything I have!” “Why don’t te stay with that woman Tanya for a while? She seems nice except the whole baciare your brother’s feet thing. That’s just pathetic!” She smiled and I growled. That did it, she stopped smiling and she stopped talking! Finally! “Are we there yet?” “Almost.” We’ve been walking forever! Maybe I should kill her. I made as well start somewhere; I needed practice for the Volturi. “You even try it and I’ll rip te to pieces.” I hate having someone who can see what I’m gonna do before I do it. She started mumbling to herself. “Should I tell her? Obviously she didn’t see it yet, o she isn’t looking for him…….” “Tell me what?!” “Well, I guess I’ve decided. He’s going home.” He is going home to tell Bella I’m s bad person. Great. I started to turn around. “We walked all this way for te to do something te should have done a long time ago?” I guess so. I know what I’m suppose to do now, I’m suppose t get a hold of him and either explain o he leaves and I go to the Volturi. “So either te are happy forever o te are unhappy forever doing something te hate? That makes a lot of sense.” “Well, if he leaves he’ll get to my home before I do so he’ll just run everything through his head to tell Edward and then boom! I’m not welcome in my home. Bye Katrina. I’ll miss you. Try to stay out of the Volturi’s way, because as soon as I unisciti I’m going to have to touch Aro and he’ll know all about you.” “Well, thanks Alice ruin my life and yours! Get out of here before we kill you. If everything goes ok te can come back anytime, if te unisciti the Volturi then I’ll kill you.” “Alright Katrina. Tell everyone I detto bye.” “William already did.” “Bye Katrina.” “Bye Alice”
