Now, she moves to Forks, Washington to be with her dad. When she meets Edward, sparks fly. But, can they get pass Bella's past, and Edward's lifestyle? Or will the promise the hooded man made be kept, and they come back after Bella?

The hooded man grabbed my arm and dragged me into a candle lite room. I screamed rasply as he threw me down to the hard, stone floor. I looked around from the floor. Everyone was hooded my a black cloak, they chanted strange sayings over and over. Torchs were all lined on the wall, give the room a onimous feeling. The tears were free falling now.
"Help me please!" I screamed futiley. I screamed at them for not helping me. They just ignored my and chanted louder. I cry into my hands.
"God help me!" I prayed into my hands. I turned my back on the hooded figures and looked up from my hands. I a heart stopping scream erupted from my lips. I continued to scream at the scene before... the scene that haunted me for the rest of my life.

"Bella! Bella, baby please wake up!" Said a concerned voice. The voice pulled me out of my dream and into the present.
I ceasce my screaming and curled up inot the fetal postion. Renee cooed in my ear saying that she was here and it was over. But, it wasn't. Tears silently fell down my face as I rock back and forth.
"Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed by thee name..." I continued to say the pray over and over, hoping it would give me some comfort.

"Baby, are you ready to go?" Renee questioned. We stood in the middle of the airport. I clutched my crucfix that hung around my neck, and nodded weakly. Renee sighed sadly as we boarded the plane.
We were leaving for Forks, Washington. My mother said I needed a change of scenery. My psychiatrist said it might do me some good. He said that things that remind me of the accident might trigger memories. Memories triggers panic attacks, panic attacks trigger more memories, and that triggers hallulations. Hallulations were bad, I could end up doing something regetful.
I sat down into the uncomfortable seat. I wiggled around trying to get comfortable. Renee saw this and gave me a sheepish smile. Renee wasn't staying in Forks, she was only going to be there for a week. I would be living with my father, Charlie Swan.
"I'm going to write you every night, Bella. I want to make sure your okay." Renee was still worried too. "Plus, there maybe be some detectives coming to check on you some months... you know, for safety." Renee added. I nodded.
After that horrible night, I became mute. I never said a word to anyone, unless I was praying or screaming. I pulled up my long sleeve reviling the 'X' and 't' shaped scars. Tears sprang to my eyes. I forcefully shut my eyes blocking out the unwanted memories and noise. I fell into a much needed dreamless sleep.

A/n: I didn't make the begining chapter long 'cause I didn't want to waste my time on a non-liked story. Please tell me if you like it.
There are a few things you need to know first. 1). I may be incorrect on the religious thing. (I'm not saying what happen to Bella cause that would just ruining it!) 2). Yes, what happened to Bella was a pagan thing. 3). Bella did not cut herself. She got cut during the night of the incident.
I maybe changing Bella's birthdate so it will fit with the story. She will still be 17 when so goes to Forks. Edward is a vampire. Dont worry! xP
Please review.
Tell me, what do you think happened to Bella that made her a mute?
Thank you
