Bella's P.O.V.

How could my life get any worse, here I am in Seattle in the poring rain with nothing more than my old worn out jeans and a black button-up shirt to shield me from the cold liquid. And worst of all I didn't have Edward, being without him was excruciating. When had he stopped loving me, were did I go wrong? I know I'm just a plain human being, but he always dismissed that idea before we could argue.

Quick movements from down the alley caught my eye. I drove from Seattle that day from Forks and parked my truck a few blocks away. Another flicker of movement caught my attention again.

"Wh…Who's th…there?" I called out to the darkness, as I started to panic. I looked around franticly to get a better picture of my surrounding.

"Hello dearest Bella, what are you doing here all…alone." Called out velvet like voice that runs a shiver down my spine. Victoria.

The only thing I can see is her red blood shot eyes, piercing with hate as she hides in the darkness of the alley. Slowly coming towards me with elegance in every step.

"Where's your knight in shining armor, did he get bored with you already?" She said with her voice coated with venom. Flinching when Edward's name was called.

I had no way of getting out of this one. With out the Cullen's I was good as dead. Running away was out of the question, being the klutz I was, Id make Victoria's job easer.

What about working up a big scream, I thought to my self, get someone's attention. But that was very unlikely; I was at a deserted part of down town Seattle.

It seemed hopeless. Maybe I should just give up; I mean I really don't have a chance surviving. Without the love of my life what did I have to live for anyway? Charlie would move on and so would Phil and Renée, Edward already had.

A low hiss from Victoria brought me back from my thoughts.

"I guess there's really no point to it now, I mean it wouldn't hurt him as much as I wanted it to. But you have caused me a lot of trouble…and I am thirsty." She said with a wicked smile on her flawless face.

I stared at her with wide eyes, pretty sure terror was written all over my face.

She reached out and grabbed me by my collar, puling me off my feet. Feeling her sharp teeth sinking into my skin at crook of my neck.

"Goodbye…Edward…I love you." I whispered as darkness and pain over took me.

The last thing I heard was menacing growl , and a faint howl in the wind.
