Hello, people. I'm warning you now that this story's a bit... strange? and that the chapters will switch between Edward's POV and Bella's POV every other chapter. Let me know what you think. This is my first Twilight story.

Disclaimer: Twilight is not mine. This goes for the whole story because I'm too lazy to retype it every time.

Prologue

"Is- Bella! Come look at this!" Emmett's voice boomed from upstairs.

I slid off my bed and padded over to my door. I reached for the knob, but my hand went straight through. I'm sure I closed that, I thought mildy. Five steps forward, ten to the left. My pace slowed as I approached the staircase. Emmett had a nasty habit of dropping things on the steps. At the top, I reached for the door and pushed it open.

"Poor choice of words, Em," I pointed out.

"Sorry. You know me," he joked.

"Yeah, you and your blind jokes," I replied sarcastically. After throwing a smile in his general direction-near the front door, I think-I sank into one of the chairs by the television.

"What do you need help with?" I inquired.

"Nothing. Just thought you'd wanna hear the news." I felt him breeze past me to the couch. The couch creaked as he reached for the remote on the coffee table.

"What news?" I was beginning to get impatient and he knew it. My knee bounced silently as my toes tapped against the thick carpet.

"You'll see." His tone was light, but a bit weary. I started to worry until I head it:

Sources tell us that the search for Isabella Swan has come to a close...

That was all I needed to hear. With a relieved sigh, I sank deeper into my chair while the news reporter droned on.

It made the most sense, closing the case. The chances of the average blind child surviving three years alone aren't something I'd hold my breath over either. Good thing I'm not average.

"So..." Emmett started. "What now?" He waited curiously for my response.

"I don't know." With the search Isabella Swan out of the way, Bella McCarty was free to come out of hiding. The possibilities were endless.

"Resurface?" It was a start. The shadow of a smile slowly made its way across my face.

I know it's short, but this is just the prologue. Review and let me know what you think please.
