Chapter 1:

BPOV:

It was one month away from the wedding, and Alice was putting all the little finishing touches into the wedding. I was in the Cullen's living room sitting on their large plush sofa; Edward was sitting next to me with his arms around me. Across the room Alice was reading from a rather large and, might I add, thick, white book. On the cover I could see the elegant script that made up its title which was surrounded by lace on the front. It read 'Bella and Edward's Wedding Book'. Alice really did go all out when see had a project and from the way she held the book in her hands, like it was her bible or something. I could tell she was really into this particular project.

Then the strangest thing happened, and it happened almost in slow motion too. In one second Alice was sitting up gripping anxiously at the pages in her wedding planner book, then the next her eyes flickered out of focus and then a shrill pierce scream filled the room and Alice slumped to the side of the couch. Then simultaneously Edward put a hand to his head.

"Alice," he whispered. Then the next second another vampire ran into the room at blinding speeds. Jasper was there then and he went straight to Alice.

"Alice, Alice I heard you scream. Are you alright?" Jaspers eyes were ravenous and he scanned the area for trouble. Then when he saw none, he settled for trying to comfort Alice.

She looked up then and her eyes were full of fear and sadness, her eyes met mine and I saw Edward pull me closer as if trying to keep me safe from her visions. From her expression I was sure who her vision had involved.

"Alice." Edward suddenly said his voice slightly on edge. "What did you see?!" his every word was sharp and I could hear the agitation in his voice. "I only caught a part of it, and now you're blocking your thoughts. Now tell me what you saw!"

A sob was all I could hear from Alice, and I saw Jasper glare at Edward, warning him to stop upsetting her. Then Alice stood and walked almost in a trance to me. She was still sobbing, dry tears, and she wrapped her arms around me despite Edwards's arms around me.

"Oh Bella." she whisper in a sad voice and then looked up at Edward, her brother and she wrapped her arms around him too. "Edward."

"Alice, please, tell me what's going on." Edward sighed.

Alice's gaze was even and her expression grim. "We have visitors coming." she said plainly.

"I saw that part.", Edward said. "What I don't understand is what happened after that, is this visitor going to hurt Bella?" Alice shook her head sadly.

"Edward, don't. You can't change this, it's going to happen. There's nothing we can do."

Edward looked furious. "Oh course I'm going to do something Alice, now if you just tell me what's going to happen."

Alice sobs another tearless cry. "You don't understand, you can't change it, it's already happened. It is happening!" Her voice then went to a whisper, "I just hope you can do it." Alice's eyes were on me now, and the sad eyes suddenly turned hopeful. She hugged me again.

"You can do it, Bella." she whispered. Edward then pulled her out of her moment once again.

"Alice! For the last time. What is happening?!"

As soon as he said it though there was a knock at the front door and even I, the human, could hear it.

"You'll find out for yourself in a minute. He's here." Alice's expression darkened.

Edward glanced toward the door.

"Who?"

Numbly, she walked to the door and opened it to reveal the most deadly looking of all the vampires I'd had ever met. Large dark red eyes, that seemed to take in everything at a moment and in great detail, against chalky pale almost translucent skin. Those eyes looked ancient, and yet as young as the body they belonged to. To a human who didn't know any better he looked like a beautiful (not as gorgeous as Edward though), dangerous, nineteen year old boy. Dark brown hair swept over his face in a very Hollywood bad boy style. I also noticed his clothes, ripped pants and rock band t-shirt. Someone was a fan of the bad-boy look, but on him he took it so much farther. His eyes, as they scanned the room, stopped immediately when they reached me, and a wicked almost rebellious grin came to his face. Edward noticed this of course, because one moment I was starring at the startling vampire and then the next I could only see the back of Edward's shirt. Then a growl rose from Edward, I looked over at Alice. She was standing right next to me, but I could see her shaking her head.

In front of me Edward tensed slightly. "Alice," he spoke in a furious whisper. "If you think I'm just going to stand here and do nothing, you'd better check your visions again." From what I caught of the conversation, Alice thought fighting this newcomer would be useless. Then an unfamiliar voice spoke.

"Aw, what, no cheery welcome? Geez, you sure are hospitable. I thought you guys were supposed to be the civilized ones, too. How disappointing." At this I peeked around Edward's shoulder trying to look at this new threat.

Said threat's eyes once again starred at me when my head appeared above Edward's shoulder however, and then moved back to Edward.

"Well, considering your reaction and how you stepped in front of the human girl when I walked in, you must be the Edward Cullen I've heard so much about. Aro talks fondly of you." A snarl came from Edward.

"So you just one of Aro's pets?" A malicious grin appeared once again on the stranger's face, and he stepped closer, despite Edward's warning growl.

The stranger laughed, a bitter sound. "I'm sure Aro would like to think so, however he just really can't contain me and I'm just so rebellious." A smirk in my direction.

And the next second ice cold arms wrapped themselves around my waist. I gasped, and starred at the face that was suddenly right next to mine, and it wasn't Edwards. My eyes widened and I saw Edward spin, and a look of horror come into his expression before suddenly my vision blurred and suddenly there was an icy chill and all the colors in the room burst.

When the colors stopped though, and my vision cleared, I could see that I was on the other side of the room and Edward's back was turned away from me, looking at where I had been.

Alice was staring at us evenly, though her eyes looked fearful and she was biting down on her bottom lip. Edward turned, probably sensing that I was still in the room. When he saw me, his expression was scared, and shocked. I felt my chest tighten painfully.

Then the stranger spoke into my ear. "Ah, so you my dear must be Bella. Aro's told me all about you, and you know when I heard I was just so curious I had to come see for myself. You know love is rare, in any time zone, and it must be especially hard considering that you should really hate each. I mean really, prey and predator in love I just don't understand it. Especially for you to love him too." It was then that I noticed the spark of sadness in his eyes, but I also saw the craze in them. It was then when I realized how much danger I was in. He was right there, his arms around me waist and with one twitch I would be dead and with my death, Edward's. No. A stabbing ache in my chest again. No please, I can't die. The stranger must have heard my heart accelerate, because soon his eyes became less crazed and his grip on me lessened some.

"Ah, do not worry. I don't intend to kill you. I simply came because of a personal interest, you see I like testing people, and you ma'dear broach what could be my most enticing test yet." His words stopped then and he paused.

"However before we go into that, I just realized how rude I've been. I mean I know all your names Bella, Edward, Jasper, Alice the little seer whose already saw the test I have in mind." He nodded to each of us in turn. "Well, let me right my wrong and introduce myself. My name is Thornton Ash, though you may call me simply Ash."

The room saw silent, and then I could feel Ash's annoyance at the lack of energy in the room. Though how he could be disappointed, I didn't know. There was plenty of static of a mixture of hatred, fear, and from Alice, hope in the room. It was then that Alice spoke up. She tried to step forward toward the guest, but Jasper held her back from coming too close.

"Don't do this." she whispered. "They don't need this, they've been though enough. They don't need your test."

Thornton Ash grinned. "Ah, but I think they do. I don't buy it, and that's all that matters. Besides, with your powers you've already seen what will happen. Why even try to stop it?"

Alice's fists tightened. "I know that the future does not always go the way you think even if you envision it to be the way you think. So far I've seen things going many different ways, and believe me when I say that they've got won in many."

Ash's eyebrows tilted upward, surprised. I wasn't sure however if it was from Alice's fierce determination or what she said however.

"Really, well that is interesting." Ash said in a almost amused voice. "However I don't particularly believe you Seer. In my foresight, though I certainly don't have your gift, I see them losing." A grin spilt his face in a striking way, and at that moment I realized he reminded me of an Edward archangel but this one was a darker truly scary one. "I see them losing miserably."

Alice's chin jutted upward then, in a move I had witnessed many times when she was talking to a particularly ignorant employee at in one on the many stores Alice shopped in. It was also something I'd seen when someone grabbed a piece of cherished clothing before Alice. It was one of these times that the employee would probably quit the next day, and the person who grabbed the clothing before Alice and ended up dropping it and running out of the store in fear.

"Well it's like you said, I am the one with the gift here."

Ash's eyebrows once again rose up in surprise, but then he smiled wickedly and held out his hand for Alice to shake. She did.

"Well it seems we'll just have to see who is right then. Let the test begin!" he said at an almost shout before he pushed Alice away and gripped on to my arm with a strength I feared.

Then the room blurred in a way it had before when we were transported across the room. The colors swirled once again around me once more, until I felt like I was floating in a psychedelic lava lamp. This time however I was in the colors much, much longer. So long actually that I thought I might spend the rest of eternity in the swirling blur.

However some time later, I felt myself falling, and I was falling on something hard. Pain hit, and I felt like I had been hit by a ton of bricks. I was lying on the ground, I knew, and when I opened my eyes slightly I realized that I literally had been hit by a ton of bricks. I sat up slowly and looked around. Fear set in then. I was sitting on a cobblestone street, somewhere I was positive I had never been before. I looked around, I was alone. Ash wasn't even there. However there were other people, people I did not know dressed in fancy olden dresses and long coats with tails. I saw a buggy carriage carrying a couple down the street by horse. A small boy was a little ways down the street from me, and he yelled out "Extra, Extra! Read all about it!" to passing people holding up a black and white newspaper. "Only two cents!" he yelled and people came up to him trying to get at a paper. That's when my eyes spotted an old newspaper, probably from the day before, lying on the ground. I scooted over to it and read the headline along with part of the article.

"The Epidemic Spreads"

The Spanish Influenza continues with its on going pandemonium. Already more than thousands have died, and are continuing to die. Scientists have been working day and night to find a cure, but so far they've had no results to report. Even the Healthy, wealthy, and rich can't stop the influenza's chaos. Symptoms include: high fever, headache, delirium, vomit…

I stopped reading, too freaked out to read anymore. Around me two women in pretty dresses walked passed me, and I realized that I was sitting in an alleyway and in that fact, no one had seen me. However I could see the people around me, and I caught a part of the two women's conversation.

"The newspaper says the same thing it said yesterday." the shorter of the two women with a slightly high pitched voice said in an annoyed tone. "The Influenza! The Influenza!" she rolled her eyes. "Poppycock! The healthy and rich not being able to avoid it. Rubbish! So far it's only the poor and meek who are dying, and they are dying all the time anyway. Besides this sickness is going away anyway. May and June it was here, sure, but there weren't that many deaths. Now that we're in the midst of July there are hardly any deaths at all."

The second, a much softer spoken woman spoke up then. "Yes, that is so, but didn't the paper say that that was only the first string of the influenza. There's supposed to be a second string, and this one is supposed to be even more deadly."

"Rubbish." the first woman said again flicking her wrist with a wave as if to cast it from her mind. "The paper is absolute poppycock!"

"Martha!" second woman said astonished by her friend. That was the last I heard of their conversation, and my eyes went back down to the newspaper in my hands. My eyes went to the top of the page up to the date. It read.

July, 18, 1918

I stifled my gasp, so that no one around me would become suddenly aware by my presence. Wouldn't see my odd clothing. Wouldn't know that I shouldn't be there.

My eyes continued, almost as if they had no other choice, to read the date over and over. 1918, 1918, 1918, 1918, 1918, 1918. Oh God, Edward! My mind spun with the numbers and everything around me felt surreal. It was then that I passed out, on the cobblestone road, in 1918.

I had gone back in time.
