Chapter 1- Nessie's POV

We walk along the beach, waiting. "Where could they be." I complain, "They were supposed to be here 30 minutes ago!" "Calm down Nessie" Dakota giggled. "They'll be here, they promised." Sadie called from behind us. We walked down the beach for another 5 minutes tell Dakota started to complain there was sand in her shoe. Man that girl never stops being the drama queen. So we found a log that she could sit on to clean out her shoe so she would shut up for a while. I looked at my watch, 8:47.

There over 45 minutes late. Something was up. "You guys, I'm going to go look for them" I said, standing up. "Good," announced Dakota, "Cause I'm sick of wilderness and will be grounded if I don't get home soon" I just rolled my eyes. "See you tomorrow!" called Sadie, then they left.

Once they were gone I started in a run in the other direction, in my speed. Searching the forest. I found Quil. Alone. I run up to him then trip over a log and land on my face. He gave me a hand up, laughing at me. I stick my tongue out at him. "So what are you doing here?" he asked, "Weren't you going to the beach with the other guys?" Then I told him how they never showed. "That's weird, they were all looking forward to it…." "Anyways, if you see jake tell him to call me, k?. But I better get going, or else I might have some bloodsuckers on my back," I giggled, "See you later!"

I started back to my car, I hear a weird sound behind me. Someone is following me. I stop. But the sound didn't stop, I started to run faster, getting to the beach and looking back at the forest. Something felt wrong. I jumped into the car ask fast as I could, and raced my way home. Once I pulled into the driveway I saw everyone in the living room, normal for night time anyways, I run in the door.

"Hey Ness!" called Emmett. "Weren't you supposed to be out with your friends tell 10?" asked Alice, with here little pixie voice. "We were but the guys never show, then I went looking for them and Quil hadn't seen then either. Then on my way out of the forest I heard this sound following me. I recognized it though…." "Well," said Esme, breaking the silence, "Renesmee, I hate to say it, but you better be going to bed" "She is right babe," Mom, said, petting my shoulder "Time for bed" "Yes mother" I got up, then walked up the stairs.

When I got in my room I just sat down on my bed. I don't know why Jake wouldn't show. He always keeps his promises. I grabbed my phone and called his number. I listened to the ring then I heard a "Hello" "Jake! I was so worried!" "I can't come to the phone right now, just leave me a message after the beep" "BEEP". I shut my phone. I have heard that answering machine half a million times before but this is the first time I've really listened too it. I really am starting to get worried, I don't know why. Something just feels wrong.

I heard a knock on the door, "Come In" "Hey," I saw Jasper stick his head it, "Just to warn you, I think eddie will be up here in 2 if he doesn't see this light off". I giggled and got up to give him a hug. "night Jasper" I said smiling "Goodnight Nessie" he smiled back and closed the door, I shut off the light and went to sleep.

I started to dream. First I was in the forest, climbing trees with jake, laughing, then I was in the ocean, cold, alone. I saw everyone on the beach, I screamed there names and noone listened. Then I began to sink in the water when I woke up, shivering. I stood up and got dressed, pulling my hair back in a pony tail. Shaking off that dream.

I run down the stairs and noone is there. There was a note on the fridge. "we are going out for a while Ness. Just hang around the house today please. We will be back at 5. Alice. I sighed. Another boring day. I turned on the TV to the news and made some breakfast.

Then I heard the news bulletion in the living room. "3 native guys were found outside of Seattle this morning. The police haven't identified them yet. They think there all part of a group because of a matching tattoo on the right shoulder. There all in hospital with critical injuries. If anyone can identify them please contact the Seattle Police Department." I shut off the TV. The phone rang. "hello?" "Hi Renesmee, did you see the news just now?" It was Sam, you could tell by his deep voice. "Yea, we have to go" "I'm getting the others to come here so we can go together" "Ok, I'll be there in 10" click.

I found a piece of paper and explained where I am and what happened. I hope I don't get in to much trouble. Then I locked the door and ran there. When I got there everyone was there, ready. "Ok, Nessie, you can go in the car with me, Paul and Jared" said Leah. For the amount she hates my family I still can't believe how much she likes me. "ok" I jump in the back of her mini van.

I learned not to sit in between the guys because there not the ones that will get swished. Paul jumped in the front beside Leah, then Jared sat in the middle between all of us. Leah and Paul started having a argument on who was stronger and Jared just kept texting Kim, smiling. I just watched out the window. Wait. I see a blur.

Ohh no, it's Jasper and Emmett. They caught my scent. I just watch them. Then Paul turns around. "Why are your leeches falling us?" "1st, there not leeches and 2nd, I have no clue why" when we get there I jump out first and stop infront of the guys. "Why are you following me?" "Cause it's better us then your old man!" said Emmett. He never takes things at all seriously. "Well, will you please go now?" "Ok, Emmett, you had your fun, lets leave the girl alone" said Jasper, turning him around. I smiled and mouthed "Thanks" then he just smiled back and walked away.

I went back to the group. We all walked inside. It must have looked funny, all this huge, muscular people, then me. Anyways, we went up to there room after some easy persuasion of the receptionist.

There was Seth and Embry. Embry was asleep but Seth wasn't, he never is. Leah ran up and hugged him tight. The rest of the guys smiled. I just kind of hid in the back well they all took there turns greeting them. But then I turned to Embry. "Hey Ness" he whispered "Hey" I smile. "Don't want to get all the attention?" he hates attention, always has. "Yea" he giggled. But then Quin saw what was happening and jumped at him, knocking Paul over and me to the floor. It's such a small room for such a big group of us.

Then I stepped out of the room, wanting to see jake. I stop a nurse walking by. "where is the 3rd guy?" she got what a ment after a second. "he is down the hall, he was hurt worse then the others" "what room?" "202" I walked down to 202. I stepped in. It was so horrible. He was connected to tubes and covered in bandages. I sat down beside the bed. Sam walked in, he looked shocked.

I just looked at him. "I want to know what happened" I ment to say it loud and strong but it came out in a whisper. He came over beside me "me too". I can't stop thinking that this was my fault, that if I just would have kept looking that none of this would have happened. Sam must have seen in it my face. "It's not your fault" "maybe it is…" I stand up and walk out, I need to get some fresh air, I feel sick to my stomach.

I sit down on the bench outside and check my phone. My dad had called, great. I called him back. "Hello Renesmee" "Hi dad, you called?" "Yea, just checking on you, you know how everyone gets with no knowing" he laughed with me "Yea, I do, but I should probably get going, I'll talk to you later dad" "bye sweety" I hung up, putting the phone back in my pocket.

When I get back in the doors, I see Leah, Sitting on the couch. I sit down beside her. "Are you ok?" "Yea, I'm fine" I stand up, offering a hand up, not really as much as help as question. She stands up, we walk to the elevator and back to Seth and Embry's room. They were explaining what happened. As much as I wanna know what happened I couldn't handle hearing it. I went back to Jake room. I looked at the medical chart. He had 5 broken ribs, burns, cuts and his arm was broken too. I sat down again, just watching him breathe. Happy that his isn't dead because of me.
