Chapter Twenty, The Escape

"Bella and Edward will be here in ten minutes." Alice exclaimed making everyone look up from what they were doing. Jasper looked up from one of his war books he was reading, Carlisle and Esme looked up from reading and playing with Willow as Carlisle hasn't got to spend much time with her due to him working long shifts at the hospital. Emmett and Dean were playing a video game on the PS4, Rosalie had been adding more curls to my hair and Alice had been looking through wedding magazines ever since she, Edward and Bella had got back late last night. Apparently she had hardly put it down.

Dad hadn't been angry With Bella. He had been beyond furious. He had grounded Bella, taking away her phone, laptop and making her come home straight after school and no going out on the weekends. He had barred Edward from ever setting foot inside his home, door or otherwise but of course he didn't listen. Neither has Bella evidently, as Dad had barred her from seeing Edward. Everyone was pissed at the pair, myself included. Not only did the Volturi want them to change Bella. They also knew about Willow and I, but as I was a true mate or in other words soulmate, they weren't angry over me knowing but they still wanted me to change after Willow didn't rely on me so much. And I didn't know if I wanted to change. I loved Jasper with all my heart and soul but Willow came first and she needed me.

"Why the hell is she coming?" Emmett asked a frown on his face.
"We have to change her because of what they planned and because they ignored us continuing on with their relationship. Anna has to change as well, but as she is Jasper's mate they weren't angry and only when Willow no longer relies on her too much." Alice explained.
"But Willow is always going to rely on her and Jasper, they're her parents." Dean protested, but no one seemed to have an answer to that.

"Anna don't worry everything will be fine, no one is going to take you away from Willow." Carlisle assured. "Why are they coming over, Alice?"
"Bella wants a vote to see if we want her or not." Alice explained.
"Well that answer should be obvious enough!" Jasper growled pulling me into him so I rested my head on his chest.
"Text Edward telling him; they've given us no choice so it looks like we have to turn her. But we would rather not as he hasn't met his mate yet. Which contrary to what he wants to believe, isn't Bella. Also, tell him I stand by what I said last night." Esme instructed.

Thankfully as the instruction had come from Esme, Edward hadn't brought Bella over and had taken her somewhere else, most likely feeding each other some lie or other. Rosalie had told me that as soon as Edward got home last night they all tore him a new one, partially Esme and Carlisle who were greatly disappointed and disgusted with how he's been acting and treating everyone since meeting Bella and for forcing this decision on them.

At first he hadn't been willing to listen to anyone but Emmett and Dean who were the strongest in the family, held him down so he would listen to all of them but most importantly Esme and Carlisle. Carlise had warned him he was a second away from being kicked out of his coven as he wouldn't have him endangering the lives of the rest of his family, even if Edward himself no longer cared about anyone but himself. Esme has told him the next time he didn't listen to her or Carlisle he would be out of this coven faster than he could blink.

And it was most likely this reason why Edward didn't bring Bella round, though we were all surprised he actually listened and wondered what he was planning. As no one trusted him or Bella anymore, especially when they were together.

The rest of the day had gone by rather well after that, everyone was relaxing now that Bella and Edward weren't coming over, the tension seeping out of the room. That is until, Dad called Carlisle and asked to come over as he had something to discuss with everyone that was extremely urgent. Ten minutes later Dad arrived being met at the door by Carlisle who led him up to the living room where we were all sat waiting anxiously.
"What's going on Dad?" I asked worried when I saw the fear and anger on his face. He sighed running a hand down his face, sitting himself in the chair Esme pointed to him graciously.

"I'm so sorry Princess. No one knows how it happened and we're doing everything we can to find him. But, I just got word that yesterday afternoon Jackson escaped from prison." Dad explained hesitantly. Saying the four words I never, ever wanted to hear.

"What!?" I gasped dropping the glass of water I was holding causing it to smash on the floor making everyone jump. "Oh Esme. I'm so sorry I didn't mean to. I'll get something to clean it up." I said in panic jumping from my seat only to be pulled onto Jasper's lap.
"Don't worry honey I'll sort it out. It was an accident." Esme assured speeding away coming back with a dustpan and brush to clean up the glass and a cloth to clean up the water. Good thing about being vampires I guess is the enhanced eyesight, so not a slither of glass was missed that could harm Willow.

I was just glad Willow was over by Emmett and Rosalie so she didn't get hurt when I dropped it.
"I'm sorry Esme." I apologised again when she had finished.
"It's okay sweetie." Esme said kissing my forehead before leaving for the kitchen to dispose of the glass.
"They've put it on the news that he escaped, Kieran and his parents have been moved into protective custody as they trialed against him, and all airports have been shutdown but I'm hoping it wasn't too late." Dad continued when Esme entered the room again.

"I've doubled the amount of officers I have at the moment especially with the disappearances. But I promise Princess I won't let him get to you or Willow." Dad swore.
"If there is anyway we can help please let us know Charlie." Carlisle pleaded. "Anna and Willow are family now and so are you and we protect our family."
"Thank you Carlisle." Dad sighed before passing around a picture so they knew what he looked like.
"Why didn't I see this?! I could have prevented this!!" Alice exclaimed.
"Alice, it isn't your fault. Your visions are subjective." Dean tried to assure his wife.

"We'll protect her at school and afterwards Charlie, and I'm sure the guys on the Rez will when they're there." Rosalie promised.
"Thank you Rosalie. Thank you, all of you for all you've done for them." Dad said gratefully.
"Do you think he had help?" Emmett asked.
"Emmett." Esme hissed looking over to Jasper and I where I sat frozen and Jasper was trying to speak to me but at the moment all I heard was white noise.
"What? We need to know in case there's someone else to look out for." Emmett insisted.

"It's looking that way." Dad agreed sighing looking older than he actually was. "There's no way he could have escaped from that prison on his own, the others haven't. The only way he could have of escaped is if he had help or..."
"Or he was turned." Dean finished looking rather grim.
"Baby?" Jasper asked touching my waist making me jump. When I looked into Jasper's worry filled honey gold eyes that were trying to hide his anger I burst into tears.

"Oh baby." Jasper sighed pulling me close to his chest wrapping his arms around me running one hand through my hair. "It's okay baby, I will never let anything happen to you or our daughter I promise. And you know I never break my promises." Jasper said as he tried to calm me down but it felt like everything was crashing and burning around me. Once I calmed down a little Jasper wiped away my tears looking back over at Dad.

"There's more isn't there Charlie?" Jasper asked his eyes dark and his voice thick, the Major obviously fighting viciously for control and before I could blink I was in Dean's arms away from Jasper.
"I'm not going to hurt her!" Jasper growled.
"I know Jasper." Dad spoke up before Dean or anyone else could. "But I think it's best with what I'm about to say." Dad said pulling a letter out of his jacket pocket.
"What's that?" Esme asked looking at the letter.

"It was found inside Jackson's cell. It a letter to him from...from Bella." Dad growled the letter scrunching up in his hands.
"Bella? Why would Bella write to him? No one was allowed to contact him!" I demanded.
"I know Princess. I know, and she'll be brought to station when I find her. He put three guards in the hospital they are seriously injured after he got this letter."
"What does it say?" Jasper growled the Major out completely now. Dad sighed taking a deep calming breath before he read the letter.

Dear Jackson,

I thought you should know as no one seems to have told you; Anna had your daughter. But she has claimed her new boyfriend the father of your child but also his name is on the birth certificate not yours.

Not only has she ruined your life and the lives of your friends but also my life. My whore of a little sister is ruining all the plans I had in place and I wish she was dead. I don't doubt you do too. And I hope it happens. I really do.

Anyway, thought you should know what's she's done.

Bella Swan

There was silence in the Cullen household after Dad had finished reading the letter before Jasper let out a deep and guttural roar of anger his eyes darker than I had ever seen them, even when he was angry with Edweirdo. Carlisle rushed to calm his son but it was Willow's crying from my arms that brought Jasper out of his haze of pure rage. Pushing his father's arms off of him he rushed over to where Willow and I stood wiping away my tears of anger and betray at what my sister wrote, at what she's done. And wiping away Willow's tears as we soothed her, Jasper taking our daughter into his arms apologising to her as he kissed all over her face until she was giggling happily once again.

"I'm sorry." Jasper apologised kissing my temple as he sat back into his chair pulling me into his lap with Willow in my arms as he held us close yo his chest.
"It's okay Jazz. Willow's fine she was just startled by the loud noise. She's fine." I assured kissing his lips briefly before nodding to our daughter who was holding both of our hands playing with our fingers.
"I know but I feel terrible. I can't believe I scared her." Jasper said guiltily looking away from me.
"Hey, it's okay Jasper she forgives you so don't worry about it. I understand how you feel, I can't believe she's done this." I cried in anger.

"I'm so sorry Princess." Dad apologised. "I've got enough evidence to send her to prison as she essentially helped or caused his escape by her letter, which she obviously planned. What are the plans she's talking about?" Dad asked looking around the room as everyone told him what has been going on and what has been forced on them while Jasper held us close to him.

"I will not let anything happen to you darlin' I swear it." Jasper said softly while the others spoke around us. "No one hurts my loves and gets away with it. Nor will I let anyone get away with causing either of you harm. I love you both so much, and I swear I will kill anyone who dares to threaten my love or our daughter. Even if it is our own siblings. I will always protect you and Willow, Anna even with my own life."
"I don't want you to get hurt Jasper." I pleaded not wishing to think about him leaving us. "We love you so much too, I can't bare thinking about it."

"I won't my love. Nothing and no one will ever tear me away from the two of you. I meant what I said when I proposed you are both my whole world and I will never leave you. I will make the two of you safe again I promise. Safe from Victoria, safe from Bella and Edward and safe from Jackson. Anyone who dares to threaten the lives of my soulmate and daughter, the Major's soulmate and daughter will pay for it with their own lives. I love you Anna and I love you Willow." Jasper swore kissing my temple lovingly and kissing Willow's forehead lovingly.

"Dada. Mama." Willow smiled happily giving us some wet kisses making us laugh.
"I think that means she loves us too Jazz. I love you too baby." I said kissing Willow. "And I love you too Jazz." I said kissing Jasper. Not caring he was using his gift to calm me along with his hugs and kisses because I knew I would be wreck right now otherwise. I was terrified of Jackson finding us but I was beyond pissed at Bella, there were no words to describe how angry I was with her. All I knew was if Jasper wasn't calming me I would be feeling a white hot rage directed at my once sister, for we were no longer sisters because of what she's done. And there is no going back.
