BPOV
I remember lying on the damp forest floor, and trying to forget the face that was eternally etched into my brain. And the words that sent me into my catatonic state.
"I don't love you"
"I don't love you"
"I don't -
Time stopped abruptly. The scurrying and clicking of the small animals had suddenly ceased. There was something almost predatory looming in the air around me. I immediately stood and began to run, instinct brought me to our meadow. The meadow. I mentally corrected myself.
There was a flash of red to my left but by the time I had turned my head she stood before me.
"Bella" Victoria said, the semblance of an eerily calm vampire. If I hadn't known any better, I would have believed that she was just that, calm. But her vividly red eyes told a different story.

Why?!?!?! I mentally screeched at Edward. I didn't trust myself to use my voice
"To keep her safe" he murmured in the same monotone he had been using for the past three hours. He never looked away from the road leading us to the Denali coven.
As I said, countless times, HOW IS THIS KEEPING BELLA SA- I was interrupted by the most horrible vision I had ever seen, and had I been the one who was driving, Edward's stupid shiny silver Volvo would have been reduced to pieces.
Bella remained immobile on the forest floor. The pale moonlight spilled countless patterns around her. She was unblinking, unmoving, and numb. Tears fell down her face at a rapid pace until she had none left to cry. She suddenly began to run, not even stumbling once as if she were running for her life. Once she reached a clearing, Victoria stood in front of her.
I then saw the most heart wrenching thing I have ever seen occur to my sister…
Victoria grabbed Bella and threw her across the clearing with such force that a branch went through her back and appeared in front of her stomach. Pints of blood cascaded down the tree and onto the forest floor and for each of Bella's blood curdling screams, there was a laugh from Victoria who continued to taunt Bella. Victoria then ripped Bella from the tree and dragged her by the legs while skipping around the clearing, spreading her blood everywhere. Victoria then preceded to lay Bella down to drain whatever blood was left.
"Kill me, please" Bella gasped, her breathing was labored and it became a daunting task for her to continue to speak. Victoria suddenly looked curious, and stopped for a second.
"Now why would you want that" she cooed.
"Because I love Edward" Bella said as the light began to leave her eyes.
"Well then" Victoria started before she sunk her fangs into Bella's neck.
"STOP THE CAR", I exclaimed "NOW"!
"Look", Rosalie began "If this is about Bella then so help me-
"Shut up", I stated coolly, "Stop bitching, and STOP THIS CAR"!
Edward stopped, not even bothering to look at me, and Rose just huffed. I turned around to look at Jasper "Will you drive back to Forks for me? Please?" I whispered. Edward got out of the front seat without a word to sit in the back, with me in pursuit.
"Edward", he was unresponsive. "Edward" I tried again. "I need you to look at me". He continued to look away. "Look at me damn it!" I shook him until he was responsive.
"Ali-
He stopped immediately when I began to project my earlier vision into his telepathic mind.
