Forever Four
Ch.1- No, no, no!
Bella's P.O.V.
Nessie had finally gotten back from her trip. She was asleep when she got here. We let her sleep all night. In the morning she woke up and ran down the hallway to the living room where Edward and I were. She jumped into our laps and began to explain her adventures. She cuddled in between us and chatted on and on. Eventually in the afternoon we got ready and went to the family house. Alice, Jasper, Rose, Em, Esme, and Carlisle were so excited to see her, awake that is. They had come over last night, but she was passed out in her room. We hung out all night. It is the 1st of September, and the Cullen teens have to go back to school but this time in Port Angeles which is about an hour away. Nessie would stay with Esme during the day and Carlisle would return to working at the hospital.
We were loading up into the cars as Esme, Carlisle, and Renesmee waved goodbye from the porch. Renesmee had quickly grown into a four year old and thank God, the attitude and sass flew out the window.
"Bye Mommy! Bye Daddy! Bye Auntie Rose and Uncle Emmie! Bye Auntie Alice and Uncle Jazz!" Nessie yelled. Carlisle and Esme smiled down at her. I could tell they grew closer to their granddaughter over their vacation.
We drove to school and signed into the office. Alice and I were in chemistry when the intercom screeched, "Alice, Bella, Edward, and Emmett Cullen are needed in the office. Also Rosalie and Jasper Hale are needed. You're leaving for the day. Thank you."
Alice looked over at me with a stunned look. Then her eyes closed for a second and a look of shocked covered her face. "What did you see?" I asked. She grabbed my arm and we ran out of class to the office. Edward sprinted over to me and hugged me closely, too closely. "What's going on?" I asked again.
"I'll tell you when we get in the car." Carlisle was waiting for us in the office. We ran to the cars and were zooming back to Forks. When we reached the house Esme had her head in between her knees on the couch. She didn't lift her head when we walked in.
"Can someone tell me what's going on or do we have to play a game of 20 questions?" I asked in an irritated tone.
"Ya, what's going on?" Emmett and Rose asked.
Alice looked at Edward, Edward looked at Carlisle, and Carlisle looked at Esme who lifted her head but couldn't meet Edward's or my gaze.
"Bella, there seems to be a problem involving…" Carlisle said.
"Involving who? Jake? the wolves? WHO CARLISLE!?!?" I never had raised my voice to him and he looked taken back.
"Involving… Renesmee." He answered.
Nessie. Nessie! Where was she? I ran around the house but couldn't find her. "Where is she? Edward? Alice? Please, tell me." I asked in a worried whisper.
Edward came and sat me on the couch next to Esme. "Honey today, after we left the... Volturi paid a visit… to Esme and Renesmee. They thought she was a completely different girl and that we were bringing in humans and telling them all the secrets of the vampire world so when the child was old enough we would change them. They thought we were planning to create an army and to destroy them. They took her and before Esme could snatch her back they we off. They had a new born with them. He was left to fight with Esme and he did his duty." I looked over at Esme. She had a rip in her shirt and on her jeans. Then I noticed that a few paintings were shattered on the floor. She looked up at me.
"Bella, I'm so sorry. I tried to explain to them; tried to get her back; I tried to fight him off. But I couldn't they wouldn't listen to me." I could see her eyes begin to water. But it wasn't a salty tear that fell out of her eye; it was a tear of venom. Edward had told me that if vampire was so hurt and so sad, they could cry venom; and Esme was.
I was at a loss for words. I looked at my hands, where this morning Renesmee, my baby girl, had kissed my palm and squished her tiny hand inside of mine. I looked at my lap where she had sat numerous times telling me all about her adventures, where she made up stories, where she had watch princess movies. It was all gone. In an instant I felt anger, horror, hatred, anguish, and then I felt sadness, loss, hurt, grief, sorrow, heartache, and the greatest pain I've ever endured, like when Edward and the Cullens left two years ago. My baby, my hope, my miracle child, my love was taken away from me. I knew how these feeling made me feel, act, and live and I would NOT live without her.
"Bella?" Edward asked in a concerned voice. I looked up and I could see that everyone had watch me fall to pieces before their very eyes. They didn't see me last time this happened. Of course they were scared. I quickly tried to put myself back together.
"So what do we do now?" Rosalie asked.
"I'll tell you what we do. We go to Italy and get Nessie. I don't care if I have to die to get her, she will be back in Forks in a few days with or without me." I told her and everyone else.
"Maybe we should think this through so we can come up with a plan." Carlisle added.
"No! No! No!" I shouted.
