Emmet pov
Jasper and I were on one of your nightly walks. It had been 7 months since we had left Bella and the pain levels in the house were still very high. It became hard for Jasper so these walks were a way to let him get away from everyone's pain. We were just discussing the amount of money he was goingto owe me when my favouring team was going to win the up coming football match. When I whipped my head to the right the same time as Jasper
"Hear that?" I asked
"No stop" it was faint coming from a female, between 17- 20 years of age
"Take it bitch" a male between 40-46 years of age without hesitation Jasper and I began to venture down the alley way. As we quickened our pace we saw the male hovering over the female
"I want to go home!" she shouted
"This is your fucking home now take your medicine!" then there was the sound of a slap and a wimper. We knew it was then to intervene
"Now I hope you aren't giving this young lady and trouble" Jasper said. always the southerner
"Cool it guy, mind your own business and keep..." he trailed off as he saw me come out of the shadows. I love being big
"No you listen guy you leave that young girl alone before we decide to turn the heat up got? So go crawl back into the swamp you came from" I said
He looked at the girl and back at us
"You better be at the spot tonight bitch" he said and then spit on her she was shaking with fright as he walked away.
"Thank you" i suddenly recognized her voice. There was no way, none at all, not here in Chicago. Jasper and I took a few steps forward which caused her to flinch. I took a deep breath in. Yes it was defiantly her. I looked at her closely her hair was tangled and a mess and she had bruises on her arms and hte rest of her body
"Bella" she snapped her head up in my direction
"He didn't listen"
"What?" Jasper asked confused
"He diddddddnnnnnnn'tt listen"
"Bella he's gone"
"I love you" we took the last few remaining steps and crouched down in front of her
"Bella its me Emmet" I pushed the hair that was in her face behind her ears her face was covered in sweat and grim. When I looked at her arms, we saw that there was a needle sticking out from it. that prick. What the hell was he doing to her
"Bella who was that man" Jasper said she gurgled something incoherent
"Bella focus who was that"
"M-my owner" she was able to slur out. What owner? What did that mean?
"What was he doing to you? How did you get here?"
"I love you" she reached up and stroked my face. What was going on?
"Bella how did you get to Chicago? Who was that? what do you mean by owner" she just smiled
"I h-h-hoped you s-s-save me"
"Emmet she thinks you're Edward." Jasper said
"We need to take her home. And tell Edward"
"I'll call him. he knows I only call for emergencies" he picked up his phone and started dialing
"Jasper what's wrong"
"We have an emergency, it's Bella"
"WHAT I told you to stay away from forks? Whats wrong?"
"Edward we found her in an alley in Chicago" there was silence for a bit so I added "she's hurt and has been forced to take heroin" I could almost feel the anger seeping through the phone
"What happened? Is she safe? I'm on my way"
"We don't know what happened we are taking her to the house we will see you there" with a click I heard him hang up and Jasper closed his phone too.
I didn't want to make him uncomfortable so I picked Bella up and we raced at vampire speed back to the house, taking all back ways in precaution to stay hidden.
I burst through the door of our mansion
"Carlisle, we need help now!" I called
"Whats the probl-" at that point he saw Bella in my arms. "what on earth happened? How did she get here?"
"We don't know we found her in an alley" Jasper answered quickly. Soon the rest of the family,excluding Edward was in the room"
"is Edward coming Alice said in a small voice"
"Yes" Jasper said as he placed an arm around her shoulders. I took a glance at Rose but she was just staring and Bella, with a blank look. It worried me a bit
"Someone has been hurting Bella for quite some time" Carlisle said looking at her arms and face.
"Edward will be here in an hour" Alice suddenly said. I placed Bella on the couch and put a blanket on her. God what the hell happened?
