Chapter 1: Awoken
Bella's POV
I woke up after what felt like a really long night's sleep. That in itself was strange because I was a vampire and vampires didn't sleep.
I observed my surroundings and was relieved to find that I was in the same area that I had been in early when I was hunting with my daughter.
Oh my God Nessie! Where was she?! As hard as I tried I couldn't find any trace of her scent anywhere which scared the hell out of me. Even if it had been a few hours since she was last here her scent would still linger albeit somewhat faded.
"Nessie?!" I yelled out but got no answer. I immediately started panicking. She was only a few months old for god sakes! Yes she had the body and mind of a five year old human girl but she was still just a baby! Anything could have happened to her!
I don't know what had me more panicked. The fact that I had inexplicably passed out for several hours or that my daughter somehow disappeared without a trace!
Okay. Okay calm down Bella. Maybe she had found her way back home somehow. Yes! That had to be it. No reason to panic. She was probably safe and sound with the rest of the family who are probably aware that I'm missing and are out searching for me right now.
I ran back to the main house as fast as I could and was shocked by what I found. The house was dark and completely empty. There was no furniture or anything to indicate that anyone lived here. There was no trace of any scent belonging to any of my family members.
I ran to mine and Edward's cottage and found that it too was completely vacated. Now I was really confused and really scared. What the hell was happening?!
I had been inexplicably unconscious for a few hours and now suddenly my whole family has vanished without a trace?! Where was everyone?! What was going on here?! Where was my family?! Where was my daughter?! My precious baby girl that I would do anything to hold and hug again. My angel. My little nudger.
I found myself walking into town and was surprised by what I saw. There were a lot more buildings and the cars looked like something you'd see in a science fiction movie. The small town of Forks, Washington looked more like a small city now.
Something was definitely very wrong but I couldn't put my finger on it. I decided to go look for Charlie. Maybe my father could shed some light on the situation. Thankfully his house was still here. It looked different. It had been repainted and looked like it had some remodeling done. I still didn't understand how so much could change in so little time.
I knocked on the door and got no answer. I knocked again. Then I knocked again a few more times.
"I'm coming!" I finally heard my father's voice yell.
As soon as he answered the door I nearly died of shock. Charlie was now a much elderly man. If I didn't know any better I'd say that he was in his 70s at least.
His hand flew to his heart.
"Bella! Oh my God!" he yelled right before passing out. I caught him before he hit the floor. I carried him in the house and gently laid him on the couch.
I looked around the house for anything I could use to rouse my father. Thankfully he started to wake up all in his own.
"Bella! Oh my God it's really you?! I wasn't dreaming?"
"Ch-dad what are you talking about? What's going on? Where is my family?"
He didn't seem to hear any of my questions as he hugged and cried.
"Bella what's going on? Where have you been all this time?"
"All this time? Dad Nessie and I just visited you yesterday?"
He gave me a really puzzled expression.
"Bella that was 30 years ago. Today marks the 30th anniversary of your disappearance"
