Slipping Away Slowly But Surely…

Again …I don't own Twilight or any of the characters they belong to Stephanie Meyer. Except Dani, her mom (Evalynn), Nate, and Jason.

"I just want to know where my mom is" Dani said worried

"Don't worry will find her, okay everything going to be fine" I told her. Even though I had no clue where to start but I made her a promise and knew that I had to keep it.

"Why, we already know who took her…its obvious that one of these leec-" Nate was cut off by Jasper.

"Well obviously you're a dumb ass because we don't have her."

"Yeah right you just want us to believe that you could be hiding her" Nate arrogantly replied.

"Nate he has a point we would have noticed and they're all here, accounted for," said Jason.

"But-"

"No Nate, if your going to act like a child then wait outside while the grown-ups try to figure this out" hissed Jason. The mutt known as Nate looked in shock for about a second but then regained composure quickly he then sat there quietly as the conversation carried on. Just to be safe I did take in a look around to see that Jasper was right that all were accounted for. So I had to rule out that Volturi had taken Dani's mom.

"Let's start with the obvious…do you have ay enemies??" Jason asked

"Yes plenty" chirped Jane. I look at her and then noticed that everyone else was looking at her. Then Aro spoke.

"No Jane, there asking the Cullen's we have no relation to whomever they took, and if did it wouldn't matter to us?"

"Hey that's my mother your talking about and if this is someone that you know took her then you will get her back, do you understand?" spat Dani.

"Yeah right and how exactly would you do that?" asked Alec.

"Watch it and don't you think of threaten her!" yelled Emment.

"Hey I'm ju-"but before Alec could reply Marcus cut him off.

"Children stop huh? And to answer your question, mutt lets start with you hmm…you hate the Cullen's and you know their planning a wedding what better way to crash and get even at the same time hmm?"

"No you crossed the line there first we don't harm humans and second we didn't know was a wedding. So how could we crash huh??" Nate said. They continued to argue so decide to step out of it and check on Dani. I found her sitting on the couch ignoring what was going on around her. I didn't have to read her mind to know what she was thinking. She was worried sick about her mother and she would do anything to find her. To get her out of her thinking I finally spoke. "Hey its gonna be okay-"

"No it's not okay it not! It won't be until we find her okay Edward! Why are we just sitting here we need to go find her!" She went to leave but I grab her.

"No your not going out there it too dangerous okay if there something out there and you go out there alone I won't be able to protect you."

"No I don't care!" I pulled her into a hug and she begged me to let her go but I would. God she stubborn just like Bel-No! You can't think about her right now, you need to help Dani; you can't wallow right now ok she needs you.

"Hey calm down okay we can't find her if your acting like this okay-"she cut me off

"What…what am I acting like huh Edward…tell me cause I dying to know?"

"Don't...not right now…we don't need to be fighting okay-"

"No…No say it…come on Edward what am I acting like-"

"a Child…okay your acting like a stupid, spoiled rotten, whinny no good child!" Once the words left my mouth I regretted it big time. I just realized that we indeed have an audience and that whatever they were talking about stop at a halt once I said that. I stop looking around when she spoke…her voice cracked.

"Well I'm sorry you feel that way about me…I'll just go-"

"No Dani I didn't mean it okay…Plea-" I was cut off by a loud shout from Jason

"Pa…have you seen my pa?" That the last thing we need another missing person. When I look his way it seem as Nate was trying to calm him down.

"What…he missing too…what are we gon-"Dani asked scared but was cut off by Jason. God now that I think about a lot of people are getting cut off…No one got to hear his words cause Rosalie and Esme came rushing in from upstairs. They looked like they just witness a massacre.

"Upstairs...in the study" trembled Rosalie

"What is it Rose…what's up there?" Emment asked his wife.
