Chapter One
We were walking to the mall when all of a sudden, someone came out and grabbed me from behind, abandoning me from my friends. "If you say a word, your life will be over before you can blink." Whispered the man that was dragging me into the shadows. It was a voice that I had never heard before, which made me more scared. "Good. We are almost to the car now." The voice said, once again. 'Well, this was one hell of a birthday present' I thought to myself. Oh well. I always wanted an adventure. Maybe not like this one, but, it's still an adventure.
We arrived at the man's car shortly. He shoved me into the passenger seat, and shut the door. He walked around to the driver's side of the car, and got in. "I must say, Bella. You listen to directions rather well. Victoria was right. Capturing you is too easy." I didn't know if he was talking more to himself, or if he was speaking quietly to me. Either way, I didn't answer. As soon as he mentioned Victoria's name, I knew trouble was close at hand.
The man sighed, and pulled out of the parking lot, and onto the interstate. "W-w-where are we going?" I managed to choke out. My voice was hardly audible, even t o me. " My dear Bella. Do not speak unless told to." The man said, a sly look upon his face.
I knew automatically why Edward, Emmett, and Jasper decided against going hunting this weekend. I understood now, that they knew there was a new kind of trouble that was casted upon Forks, Washington. But, as I thought to myself, nothing made sense. Why would Edward decide against going to the mall with Rose, Alice, and I if he knew that there was going to be any possibility that I would be in danger? Did he think that because I was with Alice and Rose, that I would be safe? I had no clue. And why hadn't Rose or Alice caught the scent of the new danger? Were they too caught up in their own conversation to pay any attention as of our surroundings? I highly doubted that, too. Whatever the reason, no one knew where I was. That was the part that scared me.
