I know its been awhile, and I apologize. I'm working on a lot of stories. Sorry. But HERE IT IS!!

Disclaimer: I don't own

Claimer: MINE Grrrrr..!

ForeverIndebted has been an amazing beta! I owe her everything I own... except my stories. Can I keep those? Please?!

BELLA POV

When the pain finally ceased, I felt… renewed. It was unlike any experience I have ever endured before. Inhuman strength… well…that was probably because I'm not human anymore. Besides that, there was an immortal emotion inside me; one that can't be described.

I stirred, tempted to break through the chains that held me down. Edward heard, and whirled around quickly. The look in his eyes… I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. An expression of pure happiness, relief, but underneath it all, a slight sadness I wouldn't have been able to detect if I were still human.

He quickly unchained me and pulled me into a tight hug. "Oh, Bella," he breathed into my hair, "you look absolutely stunning."

I smiled. The best part about being a vampire - I'm now beautiful.

But something just had to ruin it.

I wrinkled my nose. "Edward, do I smell… werewolves outside?"

"Terrible smell, isn't it?" He grinning.

I finally noticed Jasper's and Emmett's presences.

"Don't worry, Bella. I'll distract them, while you and Emmett escape. Later, Carlisle, Jasper, and I will catch up." Edward studied me for a second. "You'd best leave now; your eyes can't get much redder." He laughed dryly, then left to find the wolves.

Emmett picked me up in his huge, muscular arms. "Ready?"

"Do I have a choice?"

He flashed me a proud grin. "Nope."

"Wait until Edward had them fully distracted before you head towards the woods." Jasper warned, looking warily at me in Emmett's arms and smirked. "I'll go tell Carlisle what's happening." He made his way out the door and up the stairs to where I could hear the sound of a pen moving swiftly over a piece of paper. It stopped abruptly, and I heard footsteps on the stairs again.

Carlisle entered the room, smiled kindly at me. "I see we have a new member to our family."

I just beamed.

Jasper quickly rushed us along. "Edward should have them distracted. See you soon, Bella." He nodded at Emmett, and then quick as lightning, Emmett and I were running in the forest, leaving the house far behind us.

"It's quite a ways!" Emmett yelled through the rush, grinning as he went faster and faster, making me stare ahead in awe. He was crashing through the forest, and, yet, he didn't make one sound. It seemed faster than even Edward to me. "We'll get where I'm taking you in about three hours or so! Just hold on! No offense, but I don't trust you running by yourself! I don't want to lose you!" He laugh boomed loudly across the forest.

I didn't answer. I was too busy trying to ignore a weird sensation building up inside me. It was a desire, and I bet you can guess what about: Humans. I could smell their blood, flowing through their helpless bodies, ready for me to feast on. I almost tried to claw out of Emmett's arms, but I just gripped his arm tighter, gritting my teeth as I fought my temptation.

I shook my head, my jaw still set. I've never had thoughts like that before. I didn't think the desire would overwhelm me so much. I figured since Edward's and Jane's powers don't work on me, maybe I wouldn't have the full desire for blood. I guess I was wrong. I almost jumped out of Emmett's arms, again, if I didn't forget about Jasper and Emmett's bet.

I closed my eyes and leaned into his chest.

EMMETT'S POV

Once Jasper gave me the nod, we were off. I ran as fast as I could, trying to make the best time to get to Alaska. Yeah, we were going to hang with Tanya's family. I just didn't want to tell Bella that.

"It's quite a ways!" I shouted at Bella, grinning as her eyes widened like she used to when she was a human…well…except for that they were blood red. "We'll get where I'm taking you in about an hour or so! Just hold on! No offense, but I don't trust you running by yourself! I don't want to lose you!" I let out a laugh as I recalled a memory of her tripping when she was still a mortal.

But I didn't. I remember being a newbie vampire. The only thing you crave is blood, the yearning is so great, its unbelievable. I could see that she was thinking the same thing when she clawed at my skin for a minute. Damn…I have competition, now, because that really hurt.

Seriously, though. If Bella found her way into a town, then everyone would be screwed, to say the least. Aro probably come with that little brat, the townspeople would die, any leftover vampires from the battle would probably come back, and we Cullens would be jeopardized to move. Nothing good comes out of that.

I felt Bella lean her head into my chest. It was a little awkward, considering I'm married, and she has Edward.. But I shouldn't be thinking about that. My jaw twitched uncomfortably when I realized that my hand was inches away from her butt.

I gulped, and ran faster.

Bad! Emmett! Think of what Edward would do if he heard you think that!

I was glad that he couldn't respond unless he was here.

I laughed nervously in case he was listening and cleared my head, only thinking necessary thoughts. Left… left… left, right, left! Breathe in, breathe out… wait a minute?! Let's stick to left… left… left, right, left.

Finally, I came to a clearing. Phew! I'm out of the woods for now, I thought to Edward, See? No more me thinking about Bella. No harm done, right, Edward?!

But it was the exact opposite.

And I was going to have hell to face.

Shit…

EDWARD'S POV

After awhile, Jasper stepped outside.

"They've left. Carlisle and I will be waiting in the woods. We have your things," he quickly muttered to me, shot a hateful glance at Jacob, then walked back inside.

What was that about? Jake asked suspicious of the vampires, raising an eyebrow.

"Why is it any of your business?" I questioned, my pride trying to get the better of me. "Maybe Emmett was going back to hunt the mountain lion you made him lose." I shot him another glance.

A chuckle came out in growl. The parasite wouldn't have caught the big cat even if we didn't interrupt his… hunting, he sneered.

I frowned. "You don't know that. Emmett is the best hunter out of all of us."

Are you forced to eat from dumpsters, then?

My frown increased, and I grimaced. "You wish. At least we resemble humans…dog."

We do resemble humans if we change back.

"Yes. Freakishly tall, muscular humans that look like they take steroids."

Well--

Leah interrupted Jacob. I can't smell the rest of the vampires anymore. Did they leave?

I smirked. "Goodbye, Jacob. I hope never to meet you again." I ran past the dog, and behind me I heard an outraged howl. I chuckled to myself as I caught up with Carlisle and Jasper. We stormed off, and I tried to make contact with Emmett, just in time to hear a not-so-good thought.

Although, my hand is inches away from her butt… Bad! Emmett! Think of what Edward would do if he heard you think that!

I wished that I could have responded, but I didn't, so instead, I snarled, only to receive a knowing grin from Jasper. I was going to have to talk to that about him, later…

Left… left… left, right, left! Breathe in, breathe out… wait a minute?! Let's stick to left… left… left, right, left.

Jasper and I both chuckled.

Phew! I'm out of the woods for now.

See? No more me thinking about Bella. No harm done, right, Edward?!

"I wouldn't count on it," I muttered to myself, and grinned to myself, narrowly dodging a tree.

Then I got another thought from Emmett.

Shit…

HOW WAS IT?? Be honest! Flames are welcomed, sorta kinda. I'll hunt you down and beat you senseless, but thats OK! We'll get through the rough times together!!

PRESS THE BUTTON!
