Chapter 1

BPOV

Alice parked the car in the middle of the Palazzo dei Priori and told me to run. I ran faster than ever before. It didn't take long for my legs to start aching but I kept on going. I had to make it! I couldn't live without him! He was my soul, my life. I couldn't bear the thought of living without him for one more day. the months without him had been the worst of my life.

I sprinted through the crowd, pushing my way through forcefully, determined to get to him in time. A sudden thought erupted in my mind, what if I was too late? What if Edward has succeeded in his plan of suicide? I shook the negative ideas out of my head and kept running. The carnival parade started and more people came to the center of the square. I caught sight of the big alley, the same one Alice had told me Edward would be.

"EDWARD!" I called frantically.

The bystanders turned to stare at me while others ignored my desperate attempts to get through. Finally after what left like an age, I broke through and the fountain came into view and directly across it was Edward. I stumbled and fell into the cold water. I barely registered the scrapes on my elbows and knees, the panic seemed to have numbed me somewhat. I sprinted through the fountain and headed towards the alley once again. Before I knew it I was caught in the mass crowd of the carnival procession, I tried to avoid it but a boy grabbed my hands and dragged me in, attempting to dance with me. I struggled to escape but he took the gesture as a sign of cooperation and began to spin me. Feeling very dizzy and nauseated, I managed to break free from him. I turned around to find the alley and realized that the guy had taken me further from it.

"Damn it!" I murmured and started running again. My legs couldn't carry me anymore and my knees started to shake. Tears started running down my face because of the pain. It was too late. The dreadful thoughts kept coming back to me, and it was now, more than ever I wished for Alice to be beside me, to reassure me that everything would be okay.

The alley was so close and I could see a young man stand in the shadows. He gazed at the parade. His torso was naked and the pale skin, I could almost hearing him calling my name. I fell in love with him all over again. I started smiling through the tears. I would make it and soon we would be together once again.

The big bell started ringing. I had 11 strokes to make it. Only 500 meters and then I would be reunited with my beloved Edward once again.

1st stroke.

The dancers kept coming in my way and I felt like screaming to them. People kept pushing to get in front of the line and I had no chance to run anymore. I had to twist myself around in the crowd.

2nd stroke.

I couldn't breathe. Too many people.

3rd stroke.

"EDWARD!" I called again, but my voice was drowned out by the noise of the carnival.

4th stroke.

My heartbeat became faster and faster.

5th stroke.

"ALICE!" I begged in desperation.

6th stroke.

I loved him from the bottom of my heart.

7th stroke.

I could see him come forward.

8th stroke.

His beautiful skin and the sun met.

9th stroke.

He looked like diamonds.

10th stroke.

His eyes still looked like amber.

11th stroke.

His torso was glittering. The people who stood near him turned and looked at him. Some started to scream.

12th stroke.

I fell to the ground. It was too late. I started screaming. I was scared and I had no idea what to do. Edward hadn't seen me running towards him and I could see the sorrow painted on his face.

He stepped back into the shadows and I got back on my feet. The people who had seen him were gone. They'd run as soon as they'd seen his skin shine like beautiful diamonds.

I caught sight of a dark, towering figure sneaking out from the shadows. He had the same pale skin as Edward but his eyes were blood red and filled with loathing. His long black hair was straight and cascaded down his shoulders like an ebony curtain. Edward turned around and faced him. The man smiled at Edward and there was a strange sparkle in his eyes.

The killing happened so fast that I didn't even saw what happened to the love of my life.

One moment they were hugging each other. The next figure grabbed Edward's head and separated it from the rest of his body. Edward's body fell to the ground and collapsed. The man ripped his arms off and the legs as well. Before anyone could see what happened in the alley he sat Edward's body on fire. I started shaking and I ran once again. This time I ran back towards the car and Alice. I couldn't bear it. Edward was dead. I came too late.

Alice ran towards me when she saw me coming alone. I knew that she had had a new vision because of her expression. If she had been able to cry she would have and she looked even paler because of the chock.

"Oh, Alice, I'm so sorry." I cried and hugged her.

"You were too late," Alice sobbed. "When I saw the turn of events it was already too late. I couldn't do anything."

We walked back to the car hand in hand. I was afraid to go home to the Cullen's and tell them what had happened. What if they blamed me for Edward's death? Would they ever forgive me?

Thoughts? Please let me know what you think, good or bad :)

Merry christmas from me to you :)
