"It's not that I couldn't teach him, it's that I'm fairly sure he'd refuse to get taught. I mean, it's Liam we're talking about - I wouldn't be surprised if he was like those crazy parents that launched vendetta's against video games because they're clearly too violent for teenagers... I'm serious, I doubt he'd let me teach him anything that could possibly ever end in him hurting someone." Jasper shrugged, not quite sure how to explain just how unwilling Liam had been to learn anything in the past, even when Jasper tried to convince him that he'd need it to survive... Which he clearly did now. Still, Jasper wasn't going to dwell on it. He refused to make Liam do anything he didn't want to, mainly because their friendship was already kind of rocky.

"Unless we tell him the truth." Rose suggested although that was completely contradicting what she really wanted to do, which was stuff Liam in a cave somewhere until everything was over. "Or we could always trick him." The thought of doing that was a painful one but if it meant that he would survive in roughly one piece Rose would try it, she'd try anything but there were more people than just Liam and who was Rose fighting for, anyway?

"And how would we do that?" Jasper asked, raising one eyebrow at her, "oh, by the way, there's kind of a load of hunters after you so you kind of have to learn how to fight or we might actually all die?" he suggested, voice dripping in a heavy sarcasm. He already figured that they'd probably have to trick him into learning, but it's not like it was going to be very easy. Liam was stubborn, and Jasper had never asked but he'd already figured he was a pacifist. Violence wasn't an option. Besides, it wasn't just Liam that needed to be helped - there were others too, like Levi and Sophie.. Hell, even his mother. Things were hard for everyone, and Jasper wasn't sure how to cope with it all.

"Quite often throwing someone into an actual physical fight, especially when they're unprepared, tends to help." Rose suggested, rolling her eyes up at Jasper before going back to thinking, "think, think, think like Winnie the Pooh," Rose mumbled to herself, the line slipping out before she could stop it. They'd have to trick Liam somehow but Rose wasn't exactly sure on how to go about that idea. Maybe other people in Jasper's pack could learn first... but then what if by the time they'd learnt it was too late? Biting down on her lip Rose's head swam with question and none of them had answers. "How many others are there, Jasper? How many other people are in your pack?"

"Liam would just immediately turn, and then maybe spend the night crying about it," Jasper snapped, shooting down her idea almost as soon as she'd said it, even if she did make a valid point. Sure, maybe a physical fight wouldn't work, especially not a random one, but winding him up to the point where he physically hits someone might work, as then the person he was hitting could give him tips. Okay, so maybe it wasn't the best plan, but it was all Jasper had right now. Snapping back to reality, he pulled his attention back to Rose, finally replying, "five or six... ish. Most of them know how to fight though, apart from maybe Levi... But she's not really here right now, so."

"Why? Were you just so sarcastic with her that when you told her to fuck off she couldn't tell that you were joking?" Okay, maybe there was a limited time that Rose could spend with Jasper before she started feeling like pressing his buttons. Possibly a dangerous thing to do with a werewolf - and an alpha at that - but Rose didn't care, she should but she didn't. Twisting her fingers together, Rose looked around the room, then cast a glance back into the hallway. "She really isn't around, is she?" Rose was slightly more serious this time, almost verging on concerned, almost.

Jasper's fingers gripped the table so hard that they turned white, doing his best not to react to the comment and failing miserably. Turning his head to look at her, his eyes flashed a violent red before dimming back to blue again, knowing he was overreacting to the comment but not caring. His relationship with Levi had always been a sore spot, even if he'd rather pretend his family meant as little to him as possible. Letting go of the table, he gritted his teeth before replying, "no, she's not. She - uh - we got in an argument on the way to our Uncle's funeral. She took off as soon as it was over, said she was going home. But, when I phoned Winston to double check she'd arrived safe, he said she'd never even been home. She's just gone." He slipped back to sit on the desk, drumming his fingers anxiously against the table.

Lips sealing together at Jasper's actions, Rose said nothing, fingers threading and tangling together as he spoke. "So, you're telling me that Levi is out there somewhere, alone with no one knowing where she is whilst there are a group of hunters going around killing whoever they please?" Raising an eyebrow up at Jasper Rose looked up at the clock in the study, trying to guess how long they'd been here. Rose knew that she probably shouldn't care about Levi's well being or Jasper's for that matter but she didn't want to imagine what would happen if one of them died at the hands of her sister.

"Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying," Jasper replied, quickly going from staring directly at Rose as if she was responsible to looking anywhere but her, knowing that Levi was most likely in trouble but having no idea what to do about it. He'd called the cops but, since Levi had a habit of trying to run away when she was little, determined that it was some kind of twisted game of hide and seek. She always came back, of course, but it was still worrying. "And, just for the record," he added, his voice adopting a certain bitter quality, "if Natalia so much as lays a finger on her - I'll rip her throat out with my teeth; I don't care if the rest of the Harper's come after me."

Rose's whole posture changed, shoulders rising, arms crossing in front of her chest, eyes turned cold. "We wouldn't just come for you, we'd come for your whole pack. Liam included." Rose hissed, glaring at him before closing her eyes and looking away. Right, so that cleared up any doubts that Rose had about which side she was on. "But hopefully that won't happen." Rose added as an after thought, already thinking that she'd had enough of this.

"We both know that's bullshit, Rose. You couldn't hurt Liam even if you wanted to," Jasper replied with a shrug, voice sounding almost completely calm and unnerved considering what they were talking about. "In fact, I'm fairly sure that, if Liam died, you'd be more distraught about it than I would." He slipped off the desk again, turning to watch her with a cold, curious expression on his face, hands lazily pushed into the back pockets of his jeans. "I mean, have you ever actually killed anyone, Rose, ever? Or, would Liam be your first, because there has to be some twisted love story there. You could call if 'first love, first kill' or something like that - I'm sure people would love it."

"You have no idea how badly I want to punch you right now." Rose informed him, not caring as she leaned back on the balls of her feet. "As a matter of fact I did kill someone, once. So there, that's probably not the answer you were hoping for or expecting." Gazing down at the floor for a moment, Rose knew that she could say something to hurt Jasper, or supposedly it would hurt him but then again maybe he just was a heartless bitch. Still, it was worth a try, "and at least the person I killed wasn't my own father."

Jasper just scoffed, shaking his head lazily, a light, playful laugh escaping his lips before he could stop it. Typical. Why did everyone who knew have to bring his father into it? Why couldn't people just get it into their heads that Jasper didn't give a shit, and probably never would. "My father wasn't the first, and I highly doubt he'll be the last. Hell, I'm fairly sure I cared more about the time I accidentally decapitated mother's favourite chef when I was nine than I did my dad... I suggest if you plan actually hurting me, you pick someone I actually give a shit about... If you can." He offered her an overly sweet smile that quickly vanished, knowing that the comment was only meant to hurt him, even if it failed miserably.

"You really don't have a heart, do you, Jasper?" Moving towards the window, Rose looked outside, taking a moment to allow herself to gather up her scattered thoughts. In truth Rose didn't want to really discuss what they were talking about but she didn't want to back down, not now. "Hmm, so I know you care about Levi otherwise you wouldn't threaten to kill Natalia... who else though? Skylar? Maybe, after all she'd probably do anything for you." Rose was of course going to use the fact that Skylar loved him to her own advantage, but there was someone else, not that she wanted to bring them up. "How about Iris?"

"None of the people you just mentioned you'd actually go out of your way to hurt," Jasper replied coolly, shrugging his shoulders as if he was speaking in cold hard facts, not just hoping that she was the kind of person he thought. "Especially not Iris or Sky. I mean, you're a hunter, not a murderer, and they've never done anything wrong. Levi I can kind of understand, at least then you'd be going after the right species but, the other two? You have too much of a human heart for that, I'm afraid." Offering her a lazy smile, he raised a curious eyebrow at her, silently daring her to throw out more names of people he clearly cared about, if she could think of any (because he definitely couldn't).
