We were standing in our meadow.
The sun was shining and he was sparkling in the sunlight, like a bright star standing directly in front of me.
But he wasn't looking at me. He was focusing on a object far away.
He held out one hand, cautioning me.
I turned my head to the direction he was looking and four figures suddenly emerged from the shadows.
The first two I only vaguely recognized. They were covered in gray cloaks, smiling broadly, their face and hands glittering from the sun.
Once the figured were within ten feet of Edward, they stopped and crouched into their hunting position, growling through their teeth.
The third figure was a russet-brown werewolf, who was snarling and snapping at Edward and was tensed to pounce once he, too, was ten feet away from Edward.
"Jacob," I whimpered. But even though my lips moved, no sound would come out.
As I watched the fourth figure step out of the trees, I fought back a horrifying roll of nausea.
A man armed with a loaded gun was wearing a jacket that I recognized right away.
"Charlie!!!" I tried to scream, but I couldn't find my voice. I panicked and tried to get Charlie away from the blood-thirsty vampires, but I was invisible to them.
All but one.
As I tried to use my voice once more, one of the Volturi turned to me and tensed, ready to pounce on me.
"Felix," my angel warned, baring his teeth.
"The girl must go," Felix growled.
Jacob and the other vampire, Demetri, I guessed, attacked Edward brutally, ripping him to pieces. Charlie stood his ground, relaxed, watching the attack with untroubled eyes.
I turned my head in time to see Felix leap towards me. Instead of the quick death I had hoped for, I began to shake uncontrollably.
I screamed and thrashed, but the shaking wouldn't stop.
I felt cold arms around me, rattling me, and a voice made of bells was screaming, "Bella! Bella, wake up! Bella!"
My eyelids fluttered and I was relieved to see my vampire family hovering over me, each one with a worried expression on their angelic faces.
