A/N:

Hello everybody. I'm sorry you've had to wait so long. Heres the next chapter! I hope you enjoy.. so sorry about the shortness of it though.


"could you at least try? Alana, we don't want Harris or Selena gone, now I'm speaking for the whole family when I say that we love them like our own, it would kill us they weren't with us anymore." He said, I looked around to the faces I know so well, the faces of my family and I knew with wasn't going to be easy.

"This is going to be dangerous…"


I sat on the dirt ground where Alice and Harris had just been. I needed to concentrate. I had to do this for Harris and Selena- for all that they have done for me, it was the least I could do.

Jasper seemed wary about it, though. I hated making him worry- especially about me. He didn't need that on top of everybody elses shit. But, I still had to at least try.

"Alana," Jasper said, but in his head he said my real name, my birth name. Bella, I love you so much. Please be careful. Come back to me. "Be careful." He whispered and sweetly pressed his lips to mine. I smiled against his lips. "I love you too, Hun." I whispered. His eyes were sad.

"I have no idea how this is going to work, or even if it'll work…" I said, facing him.

I looked to the faces of my family; they were scared, hopeless and agonized. They needed my help. I could help them…. I could at least try anyway.

"This is going to be dangerous… but I'll give it a try. Selena and Harris are my life… I need to try to save them. I owe them at least that much." I whispered. "I'll need to focus. So I need everyone to be quiet while I do this." I sat down on the ground with my family in a circle around me. It was silly, but it made me feel that much safer while I was in this kind of state. I closed my eyes and breathed in deeply. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. I could do this. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. This is Selena and Harris we are talking about. I need to do this. One. Two. Three….

I cleared my head and focused all my mental energy to finding Selena, Harris and Alice. I could feel the slight pull of darkness that came with my unusual gift, but it was weak. I could tell right away that it wasn't going to be enough. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. I cleared my head once again and tried a second time.

This time I got colors, and I knew I was in. The familiar kaleidoscope of colors and shapes overwhelmed my brain and I could feel myself falling. It was a strange feeling. I knew I wasn't actually falling, but yet I couldn't shake the feeling that I was. It was one of my favorite feelings. I felt free. Free of body and mind. It was like an out of body experience. I could see myself as if i was looking in a mirror, but I was still in my own head. I was still me. I felt completely free of everything that held me down while in my own body. The feeling started slipping away from me when the colors and shapes started to actually look like objects in the real world... not just abstract splashes of color. The world around me began to focus and I could make out most of my surroundings.

It was blurry at first, but as i heard voices and more time past, my vision cleared a bit.

"They must not find each other again. It came very close this time. You should be eternally grateful that you are still in existence." Came a voice from a shadowy figure standing maybe ten feet from where I was. He sounded like he had just been run over by ten 18-wheelers. It was not a pleasant sound. These things were just plain creepy.

"Yesssss master. I will not let it happen again, you may have my sssoul if I break my word." hissed the second shadow creature, bowing to the first one, which I assumed was the one in charge of this little fiasco. The first one let a sickening smile spread over its face as he dissolved into the air. The second before he disappeared, he looked me straight in the eye as if he could see me.

That's when I realized that I wasn't just able to time travel with my unusual gift, I was also able to transport myself- to where I don't know, but it was transporting, and if that shadow creature really did see me… where we in more trouble than we thought?


I felt as if I was melting away. My vision started to blur and I felt myself letting go. I didn't know what was happening to me… and I don't think I really wanted to. This feeling was alien to me, it wasn't my usual kaleidoscope of colors and shapes, no, this was completely new, and it scared the living shit outta me. My fear was petrifying in itself. I didn't know why I was so frightened, but I knew that I should be. I knew I was in danger, and at that precise moment I saw everything in perfect clarity.

Third Person

Bella's body slumped to the ground as she let her body become taken over by her unusual and resourceful gift.

"Oh my God! Alana! Is she alright? What just happened?" Esme whispered frantically. She didn't know what it was about this young girl, but she felt like she knew her, and in her heart, Esme knew that she loved this young vampire with every fiber in her being and she would do anything to help this pour soul.

"Esme, its alright, Alana will be fine. If everything works out correctly, she will come back to us in a moment and have information on what is going on." Carlisle whispered back to his wife. He truly wished that what he said was in fact true. But he didn't know how this gift worked, he didn't know what was going to happen, and even though he was the poster-picture for calm on the outside, on the inside, he was frantic. What if she doesn't know how to bring herself back to the present? What if she never returns to her body? Jasper will be crushed, he has now found his true mate, when ones true mate is gone, its like half of you is ripped apart, he would never be the same again without Alana. She was very brave to try this, I just hope it doesn't cost her her existence.

"Carlisle, its been a while, when is she coming back?" Esme whispered. she was worried sick about Alana. Esme thought of her as her daughter already. She couldn't lose another daughter... not after.. Bella.

"I'm not quite sure. Jasper, Son, she said she can't control it, does this mean it has happened before?" Carlisle asked, turning to his newest Son.

"Yes, it has happened before, and she was out for three days." he whispered. Jasper feared it would take more than three days. He feared his precious Bella would never come back to him. But she promised. Bella promised.

Lets just hope she can keep her promise.
