"Have you ever been so lost that no matter what way you look it's completely dark, but then suddenly there's this flash of light to show you the way? Well, Jasper Hale is my flash of light."
I don't own anything but my characters and parts of the st...
"I've had to fight our kind before. We're not easy to kill." Jasper Informed leading the family into their garage.
"But not impossible." Emmett added.
Jared and I started gearing up. She pulled her belt out of the weapons bag that held two hand guns on either side, plus a couple of knives she pushed into her boots. I had some knives of my own that were also tucked into my boots and a collapsible bow that I can press a button that makes it fly open and take the shape of an everyday bow. I kept all my arrows in a closed sheath that hung from my back.
"We'll rip him apart and burn the pieces." Jasper spoke again.
"I don't relish the thought of killing another creature. Even a sadistic one like James." Carlisle sighed.
"What if he kills one of us first?" Rose asked.
"I'm gonna run Bella south and then lead the tracker away from here." Edward said. His expression looked so desperate.
"No, Edward. James knows you'd never leave Bella. He'll follow you." Carlisle said trying to talk some sense into him.
"I'll go with Bella. Jasper and I will drive her south." Alice suggested. "I'll keep her safe, Edward."
"Wait, no. I'm not leaving Briggs." Jasper suddenly spouted.
"Jasper, it's okay. I can help here, I'll be fine. But please take Jared with you and keep her safe."
"No I want to stay with you." She whined.
I pulled her over to the other side of the room.
"Jared, I really need you to go and stay out of it. If something goes bad I'll meet up with you right away." I said holding her by her shoulders.
"But what if something happens to you."
"I'll be perfectly fine. Knowing your safe will be a load off my mind. For me will you just please go?"
Jared hesitated for a moment and finally nodded with a single tear falling from her eye.
"Rosalie... Esme... Briggs... Could you put these on so..." Edward sadly stuttered referring to some of Bella's clothing. "The tracker will pick up Bella's scent?"
"Why? What is she to me?" Rose bluntly asked.
"Rosalie... Bella is with Edward. She is part of this family now." Carlisle picked up the brown leather coat that Edward had tossed to her before and held it in front of her. "And we protect our family."
"Lets just do it Rose." I sighed.
She reluctantly took the coat and walked away.
I came over to the side of the car that both my sister and Jasper were on, going to Jared first.
"Hey stay out of trouble and listen to anything Jasper and Alice tell you do. We'll together again soon enough." I whispered to her with a shaky voice struggling to stay strong for her Jared but forcing the tears back anyways. I gave her a hug through the open window and moved over to Jasper.
"I love you." I kissed him then back up. "Keep my sister safe."
"We'll be fine."
I backed off from the car And they pulled out with a flying speed. Edward was left with an expression of despair.
"Edward, she'll be okay." I pulled him into a hug.
"How are you so sure?"
"Because my sister is with her. She would throw her life in front of danger to save anyone, that's why I wanted her to get away from this."
The only thing he could muster was a small smile that I almost didn't notice. It was good enough for me.
..........................................
(Jared's P.O.V)
I can't help but feel worried about Briggs. We've been together since I was born. I don't remember a single moment we were apart.

We finally made it to Phoenix. It may have been in half the time as a normal trip but it still felt like forever.
"Jared, come on." Jasper said gently.
"Alright." My tone was quiet and cold.
Jasper and Alice booked us a room at a small hotel and we made our way to the room. After hours it was just the four of us sitting around a coffee table.
"If you don't mind me asking, how are gun useful against a vampire?" Bella asked glancing down at the guns on my sides.
"Yes, I've actually been wondering the same thing." Alice said.
I pulled out one of the gun releasing the clip pulling out a bullet and tossing it to Bella who catches it. "The bullets are made of werewolf teeth. It's the only thing that can puncture the skin of a vampire." I spoke dryly.
"Werewolves exist to?" Bella asked.
"Yeah... Yeah they do. But they're rare." My voice sounded as depressed as I feel.
"Are there any other creatures I should know about?"
"Not that I know about." She handed it back to me I then reassembled the handgun.
My phone started ringing in my pocket and I immediately answered.
"Hello?"
"Hey, it's me." Briggs' voice came through the phone. "We're coming down by you. He figured it out."

"Do you know where he is?"
"Not positive. But we're all getting on a plain we'll be there soon enough."
"Thank god."
"Can I speak To Jasper?"
"Yeah give me a second." I looked over to Jasper who was sitting next to me. "She wants to speak with you." I said handing him the phone. Jasper walked out of the room and Bella's phone was the next to ring.
Hearing the news from Briggs finally allowed me to get some well needed sleep.
