1Sorry for not updating. It is the end of the term and I was studying. I am sorry and have been looking at my chapters and they are EXTREMELY short! I will give you a decently long chapter, but I am hoping to write longer chapters in the future. I only got seven reviews, four of which by the same person (thank you Rossie), although I got over 500 views! Please it makes my day to see reviews not matter how long. So on with All I Want is You.

Chapter Seven: Mingling with Mythological Creatures
Bella's Point of View
How could my dad have found out about the Cullen's return? Why was he trying to stop me? I knew the answer, but didn't want to think it. We both knew he was coming to see me, and that scared Charlie. What if he left again? Could either of us live through that? I knew that Edward would never leave me again, but Charlie didn't. Edward and I couldn't seem to stay apart. He was coming to see me wasn't he?
I knew I had to leave, but I couldn't take the truck. Charlie would catch on too quickly if he saw that the truck was missing from the driveway. Also he would notice if there was a truck parked in the Cullen's driveway. Although he didn't have any idea where the Cullen's lived, he would probably have the entire police staff looking for me. Someone would know where they lived. I would have to go on foot, and try not to leave an easily traceable trail. I would only have to be hidden for a day. In other words until Edward returned.
I knew that I had to leave because it would take me a long time to get to the Cullen's house. One, because I was walking over five miles, and two, I had no idea how to get there through the woods. I couldn't imagine how upset Edward would be if he knew what I was about to do.
I had to leave know in case Charlie got home soon and started looking before I got far enough away. I walked out the back door, and into the woods, making sure that the neighbors wouldn't see me and inform Charlie of where I was going.
I was picturing the road in my head, and trying to follow it parallel in the woods. If you followed the road that I lived on for about a half of a mile, then there would be a turnoff onto a road that would lead me directly to Edward's. This road had woods on both sides. I could walk a few feet from the side of the road and still be conspicuous to travelers on the road.
I had been walking/jogging for about an hour when I saw the designated road come into view. Yes! I knew how to get to Edward's, and I knew that if I was able to follow this road, I would be able to get there without being noticed by oncoming drivers.
I began to go faster, wanting to get to the house faster. I wanted to make the chances of someone finding and returning me home even slimmer.
Knowing me though, I tripped over a non-existent twig and saw my face and the ground coming closer together. I was about to collide with the ground when familiar hot hands caught me and pulled me back up straight.
There was no use in running, he would just catch me and bring me back. He was not only yanking me away from my future, but the bucket of water that could put out the fire!

Edward's Point of View
I was a good thing that I had hunted before I receive Alice's call. I didn't want to have t to stop for anything! I needed to get to Bella as soon as possible. Nothing could, or would stop me.
I pushed my feet faster covering at least five miles in two minutes, maybe less. If I had anything near human muscles they would have been burning then burning again. This adrenaline rush so to speak was making me faster than I had ever been before. I was free of my depression, because I was going to see Bella again, and soon. Even though I knew that it was wrong, I knew that she needed me!
I was crossing into the state of Oregon when I got the call. I had my phone in my hand and up to my ear in moments, being sure not to break pace.
"What is it Alice?" I asked knowing that something was either very bador very bad.
"Her future disappeared right before she reached the house. I got there and she wasn't inside or a mile around. There wasn't even her scent there. I keep going farther out, but no luck. I am completely blind." Alice told me words full of remorse. Although I didn't really hear her. How could this be happening to her! This could not be happening to her after all of the pain that I had put her through. Why couldn't this happen to me to anyone else. I knew that I was being selfish to want to put the pain on some innocent person. My beautiful Bella, I couldn't even stand to think of her hurt, let alone see it!
"I'll be there in an hour," I said blankly as I threw my phone towards my pocket not even caring if it landed there. Many would think that crossing a state and a half in less than an hour was impossible, even for a vampire. I would prove them wrong. I was certain Bella really did need me now!

Alice's Point of View
I was hidden in the trees behind Charlie's house. I knew that she had gone through the woods from her scent and the vision in my head that had been cut off in the woods. That was a really stupid idea to be in the woods. She was always is in danger, and the danger is especially high in the woods. Just her luck, she had probably gotten lost and ran into trouble.
I followed her scent as fast as I could. She had done well. She followed the road's parallel path in the woods for about a half a mile then ended up coming up to the road that would take her almost directly to our house. Apparently, although it didn't seem like Bella, she was very good at figuring out directions.
Then her scent mixed with a foul scent. One that I had smelt only once before, and it was deffinattly unforgettable. Werewolf.
~*Flashback*~
This was a time before I had met Jasper. I was VERY alone. The person that had created me, had left me. I barely knew what I was, but I knew enough. I was a vampire, a bloodthirsty vampire. I had not been drinking human blood, but animal blood. I couldn't believe how this blood was so unsatisfying. Although it was definitely worth it, not to have a guilty conscience that I had just killed a human.
At this particular time, I had just set out hunting. When hunted I used my other sense to be able to stalk my prey.
All of a sudden, my future went completely blank. It was as though I had no future. As I tried to concentrate on bringing it back, I kept falling deeper and deeper into this dark hole in my mind. I didn't know what to think of it. If I was about to die, then I would have to have some form of predator. I was very hard to kill a vampire. It would have had to be planned by someone or something that knew what I was, and how to kill one of us. I would have seen a predator though, I was on the lookout for anyone that was trying to hunt me down. This didn't make any sense, so I tried to clear my mind of frightening thoughts. I was hunting and not about to die. I could use my vampire instincts to hunt, they were strong enough. Maybe my powers were gone. I killed me a little on the inside to think of that. I loved my peculiar gift.
I continued to hunt the grizzly bear by its smell alone, when I smelly the disgusting, foul, unforgettably retched scent. I wanted to run in the opposite direction, to escape the scent, but curiosity rooted me to the spot.
As I pondered through possibilities of what it was, and what I should do in my head, I saw a human pushing aside the bushes forcefully. This woman was clearly the source of the smell. Why hadn't I seen her coming? She must be the reason that I could not see the future. She must hold some shield to physic gifts.
She froze where she was, apparently not wanting to come any closer, while narrowing her eyes at me
"What are you doing on our land vampire?" she very nearly spat through her teeth. She apparently disapproved of me.
"Your land?" I asked panic causing my voice to crack and sound a little distraught. How did she know what I was?
"Yes, this is werewolf territory. Vampires are strictly forbidden. You are lucky that one of the boys didn't come down here to investigate. I'm the only compassionate werewolf here. If one of them had caught you trespassing little body would be burning in pieces by now."
I turned then and bolted. I couldn't be near those werewolves that made my powers voild. The only thing that would keep me safe was my power. As I crossed out of werewolf territory my power came back. I would never return.
~*End of Flashback*~
I froze where I was standing. A werewolf had come across Bella! She wasn't safe. Just her luck to find herself among another dangerous mythological creature.
This is why her future had disappeared, she was not dead! She had come into close contact with the werewolves(s). This didn't bring relief though, she wasn't safe.
Then it clicked. There was another couple of times that I had not been able to see Bella's future. One was the entire six months that we had been gone from Bella. If I could see Bella in trouble, why hadn't I seen any of this before? She gets in trouble daily with her own two feet. She had already popped up in my visions twice since the phone call between Bella and Edward from tripping over her own two feet, therefore causing her face trouble. Bella must have fallen hundreds of times while we were away. Why had none of those come up? This must be the same reason that I didn't see Charlie being tipped off about Edward's return. There was a vision blocker on the road. Bella's friend Jacob Black. Werewolf.
He had come and dragged Bella off while she was in the woods. What would he do to her to get her to move, when she was so set on reaching the Cullen house?
My future began to mix with Edward's, so I looked to see where he was.
Edward was about five miles away from where I was. He was coming to find me so we could come up with a plan to get Bella. A minute passed, and I heard Edward approaching.
Edward's eyes were filled with fury, as well as fear. His lips were so tight together, they were paler than his skin. His nostrils were in tight slits, he looked livid.
We took off without a word following the foul scent, that we both knew we were following a vampire. This werewolf's scent was so strong that it was making Bella's full scent. We were flying through the woods. I saw where we were, and we both stopped short.
The treaty line was just under foot. This werewolf must taken her over the line, so that he knew we couldn't follow. This werewolf was very against Bella seeing us.
Edward stiffened apparently lost in his head. Something bad was happening over that line.
"THAT DAMN DOG IS GOING TO DIE!"
With that Edward's future disappeared as he ran over the line.

Sorry for the long wait. This is the length for future chapters. Hope you enjoyed and sorry for the cliffhangers. I write WAY more chapter when people review HINT HINT! :)
