5: Remember Me This Way

After the initial shock had worn off, Rosalie and Alice had spent most of afternoon outside, neither finding it in them to function. Alice had gone inside the house-Rosalie still could not bring herself to do it-and after quickly gathering some clothing and other practical items for them she had quickly returned. She had silently placed a small bag at Rosalie’s feet and sat down next to her again.
A short time later, the two looked up as Sam, Embry, and Jared came through the trees just in front of them. Sam simply looked at the girls before saying “so, everything Jake said was true.”
“Where is he?” Alice asked, true concern ringing in her voice. Normally, it would have irked Rosalie but she couldn’t find it in her to hate him.
“We don’t know-Seth, Quill, Leah, and Paul are tracking him now” Sam answered. He looked at the two, though only Alice would meet his eyes. “We came here to see for ourselves and if it is true to go over the cover-up.”
“The what?” Alice asked him, her eyes once again meeting his.
“A cover-up for Charlie and the rest of Bella’s family.”
Rosalie choked at the sound of her name and Alice turned to her, gently running a hand down her back, whispering “I know, I know.”
The three men waited, though Embry and Jared seemed slightly off-base while Sam stood patiently waiting. At last he asked gently “I’m sorry but we really do need to see for ourselves.”
Alice nodded. “The house is…”She shook her head and continued “the…remains are directly behind it, can’t miss it.” The three nodded in unison and started towards the home. As disturbing as it was to be in a vampire’s home, they pushed all that aside and went about the home. True to her word, they found the remains behind the home. A simple sniff told them everything.
They came back and Sam said “ok. The cover-up works like this: all of you-and by all of you I mean all of you Cullens-were coming back from a camping trip. Since there was so many of you, you rented a van. On the way back, a tire blew and the van went down over a very steep ravine. The entire thing went up in flames…No survivors…Only way to identify bodies was through dental records.”
“And how will you pull all this off?”
“Most of it has already been taken care of and since it’s outside Charlie’s jurisdiction he won’t hear of it until the evening news and even then it will take time before the identities are revealed.”
“But…”
“Don’t worry. The plan is flawless and will leave you two plenty of time to leave here.” They exchanged a look-neither had discussed the pressing issue though they assumed the Denali clan would still welcome them.
Before they left, Sam said “I truly am sorry for your loss.” Alice looked up at his face and saw that sincerity was in more than just his voice.
“Thank you” she said. He nodded and before they disappeared, Alice asked “will Jake be ok? I mean…”
“We don’t know. We’ve never been in this delicate situation before. We will try and keep him close to keep an eye on him though.” Alice nodded and the three disappeared into the forest.
“Are we going to Tanya’s?” Rosalie asked. Alice had been so startled by her voice that she had gasped out loud and it took her several seconds before she nodded.
“Yes. I think that’s the best place to start.” Rosalie stood slowly. “Are you ok?” Rosalie scowled at the question and Alice quickly said “I meant are you well enough for us to leave?”
Rosalie took a breath. “I can’t run quite yet…Just don’t have the strength.”
“I know what you mean.” She swung her backpack on effortlessly and turned to look at the home once more. She sighed and they started off slowly.
It was still fairly light out, though the sun would set within just three hours, if that. Neither one spoke and didn’t notice that once again the sounds of the forest were alive.
It was Rosalie who stopped walking first. “Sh” she said quietly. Before Alice could ask, she said “I heard something.” Alice’s head whipped to the left, then the right, then behind. “No. In front of us.” Alice stood still and realized she could hear it too: faint footsteps just 100 yards away.
They both looked at each other, and then back to the forest in front of them. Whatever was coming, they were as ready as they were ever going to be.
Or so they thought…
