Dying sun: Fire to ice to fire

Sequel to breaking dawn

Chapter 1: The Vision

Bella POV

I wiped the left over blood that covered my mouth with the back of my hand. That was now two bucks, three dears and a lion. I was full to the brim. I had to admit, you got really good blood in the forest.

It was just another day hunting in forks forest. Not much difference between today and any other day. Sure Renesmee and Jacob were here and it was the middle of autumn (the best time of the year for hunting). The clouds covered the sky, but amazingly enough, it was quite warm. Everyone was safe and healthy. The day would have been splendid, except one thing was missing.

Edward

I sighed and sat on a rock, careful not to harm it. Edward had left for two weeks to study a medical course in Alaska with, Emmett and Rosalie. He was coming back in four days, but it felt like four years. The days (and nights) seemed to drag on, without him. I know he calls me every night, but it still didn't feel like enough. I just couldn't wait to hold him again, to look into his golden eyes...

Enough Bella, I told myself firmly frowning slightly, I need to find Renesmee and Jacob. I stood up quick enough that human eyes would miss it. I started walking towards were they said they would meet me, by the water. When I say walking I mean walking as fast as humans run. I walked through the forest, just admiring the green. I felt as if I was in an alien world. Surrounded by green, green and more green.

Yes, I am an alien in an alien world. An alien, who drinks blood, runs at unnatural speed, doesn't sleep and makes every human boy look at you like a goddess. Yeah, that's pretty alien to me.

"Mummy!" Renesmee gave a high pitched squeal as she ran to me and jumped into my arms. Jacob just sat there in wolf form, giving a wolfy grin at Renesmee.

"Hey sweetheart," I said catching her into my arms giving her a soft hug. I turned my head to look at her properly and frowned at her wet hair, "What have you two been doing".

Renesmee gave a soft giggle and pointed at Jacob. "Jacob took me swimming, and now my clothes are wet".

"Well we better get back to the house and get you changed then," I said through my laugh before turning to Jacob. "She was fine?"

Jacob just trotted over to me and rolled his eyes. Renesmee jumped out of my arms and landed softly on the ground. She turned to Jacob shouting, "Race you!", before running off.

Jacob and I laughed at let her have a few seconds head start before running after her. It didn't take long before we arrived at the Cullen house, well technically, my house. I took Renesmee back to the cottage, leaving Jacob to talk to Seth.

"Mummy, its only four days before Daddy gets back," whispered Renesmee while we walked back to the cottage hand in hand.

I sighed, "I know Sweetheart".

"I want daddy back now".

"Me too darling, me too," I said giving her hand a small squeeze. "Come on let's get you out of your wet clothes before you get a cold".

I opened the door to the cottage breathing in the warm wood smell form inside. I walked slowly into the cottage just smelling my surroundings, while Renesmee ran to her bedroom, giggling. I casually followed her. I dressed her in a pink flower dress and white shoes. The diamond heart hang around her neck and her long reddish brown curls hang over the beautiful dress like a curtain. I could only stare at my beautiful girl.

Renesmee frowned at my stare. "What's wrong Mummy?"

"You look Beautiful Darling", I smiled.

Renesmee's grin grew another inch. She walked over to the mirror and waved her dress around in front of her.

"Pretty" she whispered to quiet for human ears to hear, but an alien like me could hear her just fine.

"Ready to see Aunty Alice," I said looking at her.

"Yep, let's go," she smiled jumping into my arms.

I sprinted out the door of the cottage and ran to the Cullen's house. It took less than thirty seconds to reach the house. I placed Renesmee on the porch and she ran into the house laughing and giggling. I lazily followed her through the door of the house.

Alice looked up from the white couch and smiled at me with Renesmee crawling into her arms. Her face turned to Renesmee as I sat next to Alice.

"So, how was your hunt," Alice asked Renesmee facing the giggling girl.

Renesmee laid her small hand on Alice's face. It was I while before anyone said anything, until Alice burst out laughing. "Did he now" she spoke through her laughter.

"Who did what?" I was confused.

"Jacob took nessie swimming. And apparently he caught a fish and swallowed it whole," Alice had a smile crawl across her perfect face.

I couldn't help but laugh. "That would be about right".

"Aunty Alice, where's uncle Jasper," asked Renesmee.

"His upstairs sweetheart," Alice said, "talking to Grandpa".

Renesmee hoped off Alice's lap and skipped up the stairs. I sighed watching her go. I turned to Alice and put my head on her shoulder. She wrapped her arm around me and didn't say anything. I tried to resist asking in the end I couldn't help it.

"Have you heard anything from them?" I asked

I heard a small sigh escape from her mouth. "No Bella, stop stressing. There fine".

"I know, I know". It was a stupid answer, because I really didn't know.

"I knew you were going to say that," Alice smiled simply.

"Alice," I smiled at her, "You know everything".

"Do not".

"Want to bet," sneered back before I realised what I had said, "No, wait, what is the point betting against you".

"Because I know who wins".

"That wasn't a question, it was a statement".

Alice giggled and squeezed me into a hug before letting me go. "I should help Esme with the cleaning".

"Off you go then," I said leaning back to let her pass.

As soon as she disappeared, I flopped my head into my hands. How long could I last without Edward? I was struggling to get trough each hour without him. It felt as if each second was a minute each minute was an hour, each hour...

"Mummy, are you alright?"

I turned to see Renesmee with a worried look across her face, staring at me.

"I just miss Daddy, that's all," I sighed.

Renesmee walked over and sat on my lap. "I miss him too Mummy, but he is coming back soon and we will see him when he gets home".

If I could cry, I would be doing it now.

My heart just felt so torn without him. I guess it wasn't even half as bad as it was in my personal dark ages, but I was still worried about him.

Suddenly something smashed up stairs, making both me and Renesmee jump in fright. I graved her into my arms and sprinted up stairs. I found Esme, and Carlisle standing over Alice while Jasper was desperately waving his arms in front of her. That's when I noticed the glass at her feet and sensed dejavu. Her eyes were staring blankly into the distance. In her eyes, all I could see was worry and fear.

"Alice?" Jasper shouted as I walked over to Alice, "Alice, what do you see?"

"Voltori," she hissed, her eyes flashing quickly from anger back to worry.

What was wrong with the Voltori? I thought to myself, we haven't done anything wrong. I must have looked puzzled because the next thing she said was, "their coming for us".

"Who?" asked Carlisle quietly, staring at both me and Alice's fear.

Alice remained silent for a few minutes. I was getting more worried by the second. For some reason my instincts told me to hang on the Renesmee.

"Alice, who is coming?" I said sharply, but not mean.

"Bella, Edward, me..," whispered Alice.

I was too shocked to say anything. I felt Renesmee hold me tighter as I took a step back. What had we done wrong? Nothing, it was our gifts that they wanted. I hissed and put myself into a small crouch. In Aro's opinion, Edward, Alice and I had the strongest gifts he had ever seen. Selfish, greedy Aro wanted our gifts to gain full control over of all the vampires. Edward would be his right hand guard, Alice would be his left and I would be...wait a minute? Something wasn't right. The way Alice answered my question was all wrong. It sounded as if there was more to the answer. It sounded like Alice was hiding something...

"Alice," I questioned her with a frown, "you were going to say someone else? Weren't you?".

Alice turned away, bitting her lip.

"Alice," I stared into her eyes, that weren't on mine, "who else do they want?"

Silence

"DAMIT, ALICE, TELL ME!"

Alice turned to face me with a hurtful expression

"Renesmee," she whispered sadly, "They're after Renesmee as well".
