End of Chapter 22
***Edward's POV***
I walked forward slowly, listening to everyone's thoughts as I walked. Most people were thinking about things other then this girl who I was about to meet, except for Alec who was thinking about me..and how shocked I was going to be when I found out about their 'secret weapon.'
"No listening, everyone OUT." Aro demanded as he watched me focusing on Alec. "That's cheating Edward, I thought your 'family' was all about morals?"
I crossed my arms and thought of the family that Aro had just mentioned. About the values that Calirsle and Esme had worked to install into each of us. They always taught us that we were all individuals, and yet at the same time we were all a family. We all had to be there for each other, had to rely one our siblings to help us through the times where we couldn't help ourselves.
"Ahhh my dear." Aro said as he stood up with a flourish. "I was wondering what was keeping you?"
"I saw a problem." A tiny voice replied.
"What could be so horrible that you would be delayed?" Aro asked as he took a step towards the voice.
"The Cullens are coming for him." The voice called, and in that moment I swear you could hear a pin drop...everyone's eyes looking at me.
Chapter 23
***Alice's POV***
Jasper and Emmett went to go get our tickets to Italy while Rosalie led me to some seats next to our gate. I felt her hand push down on my shoulder so I sat down, trusting that she was watching out for me. I was unaware of my surroundings, I was busy looking for any changes in Edward's future. As it was now he was meeting with Aro...possibly the others.
"Alice?" Rosalie asked as I blinked a few times. "Any changes?"
"There's something different. I tried to focus on what it was but it kept changing, I couldn't focus on whatever it was." I said, my vision still a bit blurry.
"Alice?" Jasper said as he rushed over, taking me into his arms instantly.
"What'd you see munchkin?" Emmett teased as he came and sat next to Rosalie, all three of them leaning in so they could hear me better.
"Gabriel has been destroyed." I whispered, the vision of Aro's face while he pulled Gabriel to pieces.
"Good riddance." Jasper said, a hint of a growl heard in his voice.
"I wish I could have been there." Emmett said, frowning a bit.
"Ignore them Alice." Rosalie said as she leaned forward and took my hands in hers. "What else was there?"
"Edward was there, he saw the whole thing. Aro asked Jane to go get...her." I said, his voice echoing through my head. "I could tell Edward was trying to 'listen' to them to find out what they were keeping but he couldn't find the info he wanted."
"He couldn't hear them?" Emmett asked in shock.
"He was told not to listen...Aro told him not to..that it would 'ruin the surprise.'"
"What surprise love?" Jasper asked as he leaned over and kissed my head.
I was about to tell them that I couldn't tell, I had no idea what the Volturi were hiding when our flight was announced. I shook my head at the three of them and took off to get in line. Once we were seated for our one hour flight they all looked at me again for the answers. I wasn't sure what to tell them..that I didn't know what the secret was? That I was afraid that they had something that could hurt our chances? Instead of saying anything I shook my head as I closed my eyes and focused on Edward's path.
I saw Jane come back into the room, Demetri walking along side of her..his eyes darting around the room, one hand reached back as if he were protecting something. I tried to focus through Edward's eyes, but he was looking at Aro and because I wasn't paying attention I missed wat Aro said. What I did hear shocked me out of my vision..a tiny little voice that warned Aro that 'the Cullens were coming for him.'
I gasped as my eyes snapped open, the entire first class turning to watch me gasp. Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie all moved quickly so that they could block me from the prying eyes of the rest of the plane. A stewardess moved forward to intercede to offer her help but one look from Rosalie stopped her and made her turn and return back to the galley.
"What was it?" Jasper asked as he eased me out of my chair and into his arms.
"They.." I gasped as they all leaned closer, Jasper's arms tightening around me as the mood in first class was suddenly reassuring. "Thank you Jasper."
He smiled at me lovingly before kissing my head and whispering his love to me.
"They...what?" Emmett asked.
"They know we're coming." I whispered as Rosalie's phone rang, which she quickly silenced.
"Carlisle. I'll call him back. How do they know?" She asked as she got angry.
"They have a new member...I'm not sure but I think she's like me." I whispered, not needing to look up to know they were all shocked.
