Okay so I just got this idea, and I couldn't find a story that would satisfy my curiosity or imagination, so I'm writing one.

There are a few changes with where this story takes place as opposed to New Moon and Eclipse. Basically, New Moon occurs but Edward leaves differently the first time (like he made a vacation and never spoke to Bella again or something like that...you can use your own imagination on that one) and Bella becomes friends with Jacob and then the whole Volturri thing occurs along with the reunion of Edward and Bella. Now (coming back to the time of this story) another but rather more brutal attack involving Jasper's bloodlust and Bella occurs (again, you can use your imagination), and Edward is now leaving Bella permanently (as he did in the beginning of New Moon).

XXXSorry if that explanation didn't make much sense, but hopefully you get what I'm saying.

and here it is...

A New Life

"You…don't…want me?" I was confused by the words that came out of my mouth. Didn't Edward promise me that he would stay? Was I really going to suffer through this again?

The simply "no" that came from his perfect lips in his velvet voice confirmed my suspicions. This time, I really wouldn't see him again. Any of them.

I tried my best to accept it, I really did. I barely paid attention to whatever was coming out of his mouth knowing that I would never kiss it again. Knowing that this was the end. I wouldn't survive through this again. I was definitely going to hurt Charlie by dieing. That was a fact, but I couldn't rip myself apart again.

He suddenly was standing in front of me, his face inches away from mine. This was the goodbye part. Also known as the part where my eyes and my face become dull, dead, lifeless.

I think I heard him make me promise him something. I couldn't remember. I just felt my lips part and my voice, dry and hoarse, whisper something.

The next thing I knew, he was gone. Forever.

I wandered through the forest, going deeper and deeper, completely lost. I just let my feet drag on. The numbness was excruciating. I didn't feel the thorns pierce my skin or the rough brush burn my legs whenever I fell. I just walked until I could walk no more.

I found myself in a fetal position, curled up into a cold ball in the light of the full moon, when I heard his voice. My angel's voice speaking in a clearly regretful tone.

"Bella! Oh Bella I'm so sorry! I never meant those words. I could never stand a minute being away from you. Forgive me, Bella. Forgive me please!"

He said this over and over again until the numbness subsided, and I sat straight up while looking in the direction of his voice. My eyes landed on a figure, hidden in the shadows. It was strange, the way his body was positioned, almost catlike.

"Edward?" I called staring towards the figure, the curiosity overwhelming my body.

The figure stepped forward, illuminated by the full moon. My muscles froze, and my heart stopped in terror. The figure's head was thrown back, and a loud cackle was heard.

"Miss me?" the figure sneered.

My eyes were locked in full fright mode. I realized that death was upon me faster than I had thought it would be. I also realized that this was going to be very painful death indeed.

"Victoria." I managed to croak out.

Her wild burgundy eyes and flaming red hair stood out to me, vibrant against the dark green of the trees. Her face was unnaturally sinister, proving that tonight was going to be an enjoyable one for her as she would be drinking my blood, my lifeline.

"James was right. Your precious Edward didn't even bother giving me a challenge. He just left you all alone for me. This is going to be so slow and painful. I can't wait to hear you scream!" she laughed with such malice that her normal vampire, soprano voice immediately went from the ringing of bells to the lowest notes of an organ. "Mate for mate." she reminded me.

I don't really know what happened to me, but the idea of death, even this death became soothing for me. It was going to be over soon. My heart wouldn't have to endure for too much longer. I wouldn't have to rip another hole in it, shredding it to bits.

She must have noticed my sudden change of mood, because she stopped the hateful comments of what was to come to me and instead looked at me curious.

I just met her gaze. I could feel the life pouring out of my eyes quickly.

"No!" she muttered. "Unbelievable! The one time I get the opportunity, you actually welcome death in the face." Her face was bewildered and. . .calculating.

After a moment or two, she was within an inch of my face whispering "It's not going to be that easy, especially if you can't die." And with that she bit my exposed throat and retreated to the darkness of the shadows.

The agony was so much more unbearable than I could have ever imagined. I could never tell if the pain was from my shattered heart, all hopes of death lost, or the venom coursing through my veins. The venom was fire, hotter than the sun itself, and it was inside of me, burning me alive. Or to death, to be more precise.

Those three days felt like they lasted a lifetime, but also a mere minute in my reality.

Tell me how I did please. Don't worry I'll try to update soon while the story is alive in my head :) Also if anyone has any plot lines or anything they want me to put in, just let me know...thanks
