Chapter 2

Bella P.O.V

I found out Jake was a wolf a week ago. I haven't seen him since he sprung it on me.

I still feel the pain from where the Cullen's left and now I feel the loss of Jake too. I try to pull it together for Charlie. I can see what me being in pain does to him.

He threatened to send me to Renee, my mom, yesterday but I told him things were getting better. After a lot of telling him I was getting better he finally agreed to let me stay.

Today I decided to say goodbye. I need closure. I went to the meadow. I remember Edward bringing me here after I found out what he was. I remember the way the sun would shine on him and his skin would sparkle.

Now that I think about it the whole sparkling in the sunlight thing is kind of gay. I mean vampires were strong and fast but they sparkled. They're the predator, we're the prey, and they sparkle.

I hear a twig snap and look up to see Victoria. Her blood red eyes stared into mine as if trying to burn me. Her fire red hair fly's around her face in the wind. She walks up to me.

"Your Cullen's killed my James. You will take the punishment." she said in a child like voice.

Then the torture began.

Victoria grabbed me and started running. She took us to the Cullen's house. She started taunting me.

"They didn't want you. Why would they? After all you are just a pathetic, weak, human." she sang and kicked me.

She started kicking me and I felt my ribs break. I wouldn't scream for her though.

"Scream." she yelled and hit me again.

I wouldn't though. She picked me up and through me across the Cullen's yard and into a tree. She ran to me and stepped on my hands and arms. She started breaking every bone in my body. I was in so much pain I felt numb. She looked at me with black eyes and I thought I was finally going to die. I was wrong.

"I was going to kill you but I want you to feel my pain. I want you to be alone for eternity like me, so I'll change you." she said and bit me.

At first I felt like I was freezing but when she removed her teeth the burning started. I barely heard her words.

"Your change will be the most painful out of anyone's. the venom will have to fix all your bones. All of them." she said and laughed.

The burning got worse and worse. I kept my screams in though. It felt like lava was running through my bones. Like fire was playing with my veins. I thought that hell would be the worse place to be, burning, but I think this is worse then anything.

Finally it all stopped. The burning. My heart. I woke up in the Cullen's yard where I was before. Victoria? No where to be found.

I wonder how long I had been burning. I started running until I saw a car. The radio was telling the temperature and date. When the date was said the date I realized I had been burning for thirteen days.

Everyone would of thought I was dead now or something like that. I knew I couldn't go back so I started running.
