The trees seemed to sing as Bella climbed out of her truck and walked towards her house. The storm clouds that had hung overhead started spilling the promised rain, soaking her before she reached the door. As she reached for her keys Bella noticed Charlie's cruiser in the driveway, 'he never comes home early' she though as she turned the knob and stepped into her house.
She placed her keys on the hook near the door and hung up her coat, shivering as she noticed how cool the house was. "Dad?" she called looking in the living room as she passed, noting that the television was off and the room was empty. A loud crash of thunder almost masked a soft thump coming from the kitchen, curious, Bella made her way towards it. " Dad I...Oh my god!" Bella screamed, Charlie was on the ground, a trail of blood leading out the open back door. "DAD" she yelled, rushing over to him, "dad, please" she sobbed as she reached for the phone next to the fridge. she tried to call the Cullen's only to find the line dead, Charlie wouldn't last much longer without help, whimpering she hung up the phone.
She frantically crawled over to the door, wanting it closed in case whatever attacked her dad was still out there. She was met with the sounds of snarls as she slammed the door and locked it, crawling backward watching it as something tried to get in. she bumped into someone and screamed as he pulled her to her feet, spinning her around to look at her. "Jacob?" she cried and wrapped her arms around him. She had not seen him since the war. "Jake, something attacked Charlie, we have to get help" she said as she pulled him towards the front door " Bella, I can't let you leave" she spun around to face him, searching his eyes in disbelief.
Jake pulled her into his arms "He was going to keep us apart, he told me to stay away from you. I had no choice, you can't become one of them." Bella pulled away, " y-you? You did this to-" she couldn't finish the thought, she made a strange choking noise as she wrapped her arms around herself. "It was the only way, he wouldn't believe me when I said they were dangerous." he walked slowly towards her and reached out to touch her cheek, softly he told her he was going to take her to the reservation where no one could take her away" she jerked away from him and backed down towards the kitchen, tears running down her face. "you're a monster" she whispered, and she turned around and bolted to the back door and scrambled to throw the lock before Jake got her. She threw open the door and rushed out into the rain only to run head on into Edward, and she heard the rest of the Cullen's leap on Jake as he tried to get to her.
Edward didn't say a word as he picked her up and carried her into the house, passing Carlisle who was looking over Charlie; he didn't need to ask if Charlie was going to make it, Carlisle gave him the information as he passed. He put Bella down on the sofa and held her as she cried rubbing small circles on her back and soothingly telling her that Charlie would be ok. She looked up at him just as a yelp could be heard from the back of the house, followed by silence. Tears filled her eyes as a blood soaked Emmett came into the room, "Its done" he said in a low gravely voice. Bella buried her head into her hands and sobbed.
She had lost her best friend.
