I'm also happy to read reviews about my first story. Also please ignore any typo's. ;) i hope you enjoy the story. Oh and the rest of the story is written differently, this first bit is more or less setting and introduction.

And before I start I would like to Thank my best friend Zaz for her inspiration with the later chapters.

Introduction- Attack

Emergency room, girl is wheeled in on a bed Dr Carlisle walks over "whats the story" (hasn't seen the bed yet)

Nurse states "female, white, age 17, found unconsciouses outside on the step. no ID" pauses "and thats not the creepy bit, she had this on her" hands over a single blood red rose, a note attached contains 3 simple words 'I Got Her'

Dr Carlisle looks up and says "what injury does she have" as he starts walking towards her room

"it looks like she was attacked, possibly a wild animal, clear bite mark" last words uttered just as he gets to the door and sees Bella lying on the bed... "Oh My God" Dr Carlisle whispers.

Chapter 1- Protecting Secrets

"Wheres Edward?" Dr Carlisle asks Alice as he runs through the door "Edward!"

"Why? whats wrong? Whats happened?" Alice enquirers as Edwards comes running down the stares with a curious expression on his face.

"Edward we have to talk, please sit down" Dr Carlisle gestures to the couch, 'I never thought I would have to do this to my own family...'

but it was to late, Edward had heard the thought, seen the image of Bella in the bed in his mind. "where is she? whats happened? Who did it?"

"who did what?" Alice asks rather desperately. Carlisle turns to her just as the rest of the family come down the stairs having heard the commotion.

"Whats going on?" Emmet and Jasper ask in unison as the others look on waiting for an answer.

"it's Bella" Edward says with a combination of rage, grief and a hundred other emotions "and cut that out" he yells at Jasper who was trying to calm down the situation. "hey don't yell at him"

"Every one be quiet, calm down and sit down" Carlisle says in a stern voice which, being so unusual for him, silences everyone including the frantic Edward. Once everyone is sitting which took all of 1 second, his regained his calm and started explaining the situation. Once he finished telling everyone the little that he knew he stopped and the silence was deafening. After what seemed like eternity Alice spoke up voicing everyones thoughts

" so what happens now?" takes a breath "I mean, she is going to turn into one of us right? So what can we do?"

Carlisle is the first to reply "i don't know exactly, all i know is we have to move her out of the hospital. She is going to be in a lot of pain, and then..." awkward pause "well she will join us, but thats the main problem"

"what do you mean, why cant she be with me?" Edward asks confused, he opens his mouth to speak again but Carlisle silences him with a wave of his hand.

"thats not the problem of course we will welcome her into the family, but she is hooked up to heart monitors that will tell everyone that her heart has stopped"

"so?..." Emmet asks stupidly "everyone sees that she dies" everyone stares at him blankly due tot he simplicity of his question

"It means" Rosalie speaks up for the first time "that when she wakes up as one of us, her heart monitor will tell every one that she is dead. It could expose us all"

Jasper also points out "she will be in a hospital surrounded by people bleeding. The thirst will get the best of her."

'so we need a plan, Edward can you help?' Alice's voice cut through the jamble in his mind, Edward looks up slowly and nods, almost imperceptibly. "So we get her out of there" Edward speaks up. Before any one can say anything he goes on "Kidnap"

"What" this time it was Alice and Rosalie's turns to speak in unison. Edward shrugs. "Edwards thats ins..."

"Perfect" says Jasper. Alice pulls away from him slightly and everyone turns to him. "Well not a kidnap exactly, we make it look like she left, leave a not saying she got better and left, mean while we have picked her up and can drive her, somewhere. I mean its not like she's not allowed to leave, its just not advised"

"So we have a plan, we leave at eight o'clock" with that Edward get up and walks out of the room, out the front door, not to return till eight pm.
