Summary: 10 years, 10 years I have been in this place. I was 6-years-old when my parents sent me here, and I will never forgive them. Ever since I can remember people have called me an outcast, un-natural or weird, when I went outside people gave me a disgusted looks and tried to stay, as far away from me as possible, even my parents hated me. You'll have to read more to find out. (The only thing I own is the plot and the extra people you haven't heard about before)
Escape
Chapter 5
Bella
I was sitting on the side of Edward's bed, waiting for him to wake up from a deep sleep, thinking about what had just happened. Stupid bitch of an institute found a way to take all of my powers! I still can't believe it, and it feels so… weird not being able to use my powers whenever I wanted, I feel so normal and not me! My powers were a part of me, and now that they're gone, temporarily I must add, because I am going to get them back, no matter what, I feel not my normal self. I need to get them back, before I go…
Just at that moment Edward jumped out of this bed, screaming loudly might I add. He was panting, and sweat was dripping down his face, and he had a terrified expression across his face.
"Edward…" I said soft, putting my hand softly on his arm, but I must have surprised him, because before I knew it, he threw me across the room, causing me to hit my head and back on the wall opposite his bed. He walked over to me with a menacing look in his face, I stayed down on the ground looking up at Edward in fear, I backed myself up as far as I could on the wall. I could see my terrified expression on my face, in his… red eyes.
"Edward, what- what are you doing?" I heard my voice say, it didn't sound like me at all; my tone was soft, and powerless. Edward just smiled evilly and crouched down decided me, stroking my cheek with the back of his hand, but not in a romance kind of way, "Edward, this isn't you!" this would be the perfect time for my powers to come back!
"I'm going to love doing this to you!" he said, now that didn't sound like Edward at all, what's happening! I closed my eyes, and hurt my head to the side, trying to shield it with my shoulder. Edward… I tried one more time, waiting for him to do whatever it was that he was going to do, but it didn't happen, instead when I looked over at Edward, he was sitting there looking at me in shock, as if he didn't know what had just happened.
"Edward, is that you?" I asked cautiously sitting up straighter, "are you alright?"
"What just happened?" Edward asked quietly, he was now sitting about half a metre away from me on the wall I was leaning on, looking down at his lap.
"I don't know, you were having a bad dream, and you woke up screaming, then you saw me, and through me at this wall, I think you were about to hurt me" I told him sadly, "do you remember anything from your dream that might have brought that on?"
"I remember everything, as if it was real" Edward told me, still looking down at his lap, he's trying to avoid your eyes, I thought to myself.
"Do you want to tell me what happened?" I asked him, turning around to face him, instead of his bed, now with his blankets thrown across the room, from when he jumped out of his bed.
"I was in my room, when I heard you screaming my name, so I ran out and down the corridor, but the faster I ran, the long the corridor got. Then you let out an ear-piercing scream, and then everything went quite. I finally got to the end of the corridor, and walked into a plain white room, there lying in the middle of the room was your body, and what looked like a vampire onto of you, feeding off of you, when she saw me she walked up to me and bit me" he told me still in a sad voice.
"Oh Edward, that must have been terrible!" I said sadly, moving over to him, and giving him a hug, "that was like my dream that I had, well it wasn't really a dream, but you know"
"Did I hurt you?" Edward asked me, examining me up and down to make sure he didn't
"No you didn't" I told him but just as I said that, I turned by neck causing me to winch painfully, unfortunately Edward saw me winch, and looked at my neck.
"Oh my god! I am so sorry Bella!" Edward said quickly, placing his hand softly on the curve on my shoulder to my neck.
"That's alright Edward, I didn't even know I was hurt" I told him truthfully, placing my hand on top of the hand that was on my neck, and moved them to my lap, closing my eyes. Then felt something soft brush my sore neck, were Edward and my hands were just before. I opened my eyes to see Edward kissing my bruises better, I moaned softly and rolled my neck around that feels good!
I placed my other hand that wasn't hold his hand, on his cheek, and guided his mouth to mine, and we kissed. Well that was until Alice busted into the door cheerfully, Edward and I looked up from our embrace, and Alice squealed excitingly. Oh shit!
"OHMYGOD! I never expected that to ever happen! Well actually I did, you know me being able to read the future and all, but that's what I would have said if I couldn't read the future! Oh my god, this is soo cool!" Alice said all together, without a breath, after Alice stopped talking for a few seconds and we didn't say anything she just squealed again, and ran out the door happily.
"Well that was weird" I said looking back at Edward, our faces were only millimetres apart, "but where were we again?"
Edward and I smiled, and then he ducked his head down and kissed me again. But just like before; there was a knock on the interrupting us again. Edward and I both groaned loudly in frustration, can't people just leave us alone!
"Well at least they knocked?" I suggested positively
"True, at least we know it's not Alice out there waiting for us, she wouldn't have knocked" Edward chuckled, sigh…
Edward grabbed hold of my hand, and stood up pulling me up with him. We walked over to the door smiling at each other the whole way, Edward held my hand up in front of his lips, and kissed my hand lightly, than put our joint hands behind his back, and opened the door. There standing in front of us was a lady; she looks to be around 18-years-old, and had shoulder-length mouse blonde hair, and faint freckles under her eyes, and clear yellow eyes. She looks like an older more beautiful version of pippy-long-stockings. Who is this lady!
"Hello Jill" Edward said politely nodding his head, "how are you today?"
"I'm very well thank you Edward, I just wanted to come and introduce myself to Isabella here, I heard she's arrived back" the lady, Jill, said, smiling at me, she had small dimples on each side of her cheeks when she smiled, "Hi I'm Jill" she said, extending her hand out for me to shake.
"I'm Bella, it's very nice to meet you" I told her, shaking her hand happily.
"It's a pleasure to meet you to Bella, I've heard so much about you over the past 3 months" she told me
"I'm sure you have, I'm a legend in this place! I mean, without me, this place would be nothing!" I joked, causing Edward and Jill to laugh softly, "may I ask what you're doing here Jill? I mean this would hardly be a place for a vacation, and you don't look like you should be working here!"
"Oh no, I wouldn't dream of vacating here!" she said quickly, still smiling, "no I actually do work here"
"Why would you ever want to work here! No offence!" I asked surprised, how could someone so nice and sweet be working here!
Jill giggled softly, "Oh believe me, this is the last place I would ever want to work! But my mum sent me here, because she heard that this place is a great place for my certificate in medicine"
"Wow, you must really want to be a doctor or whatever if you're going here for your certificate!" I noted, "This place is hell! I wouldn't have came back here if it was for Edward and everyone else, their like my family"
"I've wanted to do something in medicine since I was 5-years-old" Jill told me, "so yeah I'm dedicated, so anyway I just wanted to introduce myself, and let you know that if you ever need any help with anything, just come see me"
"Thank you Jill, actually I was wondering when my powers will come back to me" I asked her, I really want my powers back!
"Um, I'm not quite sure when exactly you'll get them back, but can tell you it will be a while" she told me, she sound genuinely sorry for me, "I'm sorry that you've lost your powers, but look on the bright side, at least they're not gone forever…"
"Thank you Jill, its juts I feel so… weird and normal" I told her smirking at how stupid I sounded, but it's true! "Do you by any chance know how I can get them back faster?"
"Well I'm not sure about this, but I might be able to get you an injection or something, to get your abilities back faster?" Jill suggested, "I'm not 100 percent sure about that, but I can try"
"Oh my god, really? You would do that for me?" I asked her surprised, "would you get in trouble if you got caught?"
"Probably, but I won't get caught" she told me positively, "I have a way with things like this; I'll meet you guys in the lounge in say, 10 minutes max?"
"Ok, and thank you so much Jill" I said to her gratefully, "if you ever need help with anything, just let me know and I'll do it"
"I will, see you two soon with your medicine Bella" she told us, then walked back down the corridor, to one of the few laboratories in this place.
"Well she's very nice isn't she?" I said, when she was out of earshot
"Yes she is" Edward answered, wrapping his arms around me, "how about we go down to the lounge, and wait for Jill, then we can come back here and talk about… us?"
"Sounds like an idea" I smiled, looking up at him happily, we walked down the corridor to the lounge, hand in hand. As soon as we walked into the lounge, everyone looked up at us. Damn Alice, and her mouth!
"Hi guys" I said sheepishly
"Got something to tell us you two?" Emma asked, raising her right eyebrow questioning, along with everyone else in the room.
"Um, not really" Edward told them, "Alice caught Bella and I making out, is all"
"So are you two… together?" Aaron asked us both, Edward and I both looked up at each other, Edward titled his head questioningly, and I smiled widely and nodded my head happily.
"Yes" We both told them in unison, my smile widened and Edward and I squeezed each other's hands happily.
"Bella, I've got the formula for you!" Jill said running into the room happily, Edward and I turned around to face Jill, she was jumping up and down slightly with a big smile on her face and a tub of clear liquid in her hand, she held out her hand with the tub in it, "just drink this and you should get your powers back straight away"
"Thank you Jill" I said gratefully, grabbing the tub from her hand, "again if there's anything you ever need help with, just ask me"
"Actually there is something that you can help me with" Jill told me, looking down at the floor, "Please don't get angry at me, just have to remember that the staff here force me to do this against my own will"
"Jill you can tell us, we promise not to get angry at you" Stacey told her sweetly
"Thanks guys, well I'm actually the cause of your abilities being taken away from you all" Jill told us
"Wait what, you're telling us that you are the cause of us losing and getting our powers taken away?" Emmett asked
"Yes, they've been testing me for years with all their needles and ice baths" Jill told us sadly, "trying to find a way of maybe a serum to take you abilities away from you, and why they found out a away to do it, they made this institute and took me here to test on me more, I was only 4 years old and I've been here ever since"
"Wait that doesn't make sense, if you were brought here when you were 4 years old, then I was 5 at that time, but I was sent here when I was 6 years old, so that means that the year before I was sent here this institute was built, but this place looks so much older and there were people living here for so much longer then I have, it just doesn't really fit together properly" I told her confused out of my mind
"I can help you with that, you see" Jill said, she seemed to be having trouble saying the next part, "I'm… a vampire"
So there it is everyone, I hope you liked this chapter, I think it's pretty good myself :) Edward and Bella are together, for now ;) hehe. And there's a new, no wait old… vampire! In the institute, can't wait to see what's gonna happen next and how everyone's going to react..
Please review and tell me what you think and even some ideas if you have any, they always help me work faster :) and it's school holiday for two weeks here in AUS, so if I'm not busy then I might even be able to update a bit faster yeah?
Love yous all!
xx blue.
