Agh. I couldn't resist! It's time for Lauren to continue the story. On with it!
Disclaimer: Yeah yeah. Twilight isn't mine. But EDWARD IS! HAH! (Runs away with him) Actually. He's not. Poo.
I cried out in frustration as Edward held me back. I struggled and pushed at him.
"We have to get Charlie, Edward!" A tear ran down my cheek. "Who knows what they're doing to him!"
Alice walked in and took the crumpled not from my hands. Soon she was zoned out again, her eyes foggy and her mind elsewhere. I slumped against Edward's chest, all of the fight gone out of me. I cried into his shirt and he held me closer.
"Oh Edward, what are we going to do? We have to find him!" I whispered urgently into his chest.
"Sweet, Bella. I will call Carlisle and we will figure out how to get Charlie back." To prove his point he pulled his cell phone out of his pocket and dialed Carlisle's number. He tapped his finger on my back impatiently, waiting for Carlisle to pick up. Speaking into the phone so quickly I couldn't understand, he conversed with Carlisle and when he was done he lowered the phone back into his pocket and gazed down at me.
A minute later Alice 'ahem'ed to draw our attention back to her.
"I saw something." She announced, and I nodded to indicate that she should continue. "Charlie is being held in a dark room, filled with cobwebs and dust. He doesn't look too disheveled so I assume he hasn't been there long. It seems as if he's in the basement of a large house…" I gasped and wriggled out of Edward's arms.
"I think I know where he is!" I said and Edward looked at me with a bemused expression.
"Hey. I know what I'm talking about! Don't look at me like that." He laughed.
"Like what?" He asked and pulled me against him, wrapping his arms around me, still laughing.
"Like you think I'm hysterical or crazy or something." I stuck my tongue out at him and spun around to Alice. Who was also laughing I might add. "You'll listen to me, right, Alice?" She nodded and Edward kissed my shoulder.
"I'm sorry if it seemed like I didn't think you knew what you were talking about, but you're just so cute when you're angry." He told me, and I laughed at him.
"Well then you won't mind looking at my angry face for a while more." I said and he kissed my nose before I spun around to Alice again.
"Alice. I think I know where Charlie is." She told me to go on. "When nightmare ma… I mean, Nathaniel took me out through the window…" I grimaced when I remembered my broken window. "… He took me to his home. Which reminds me of what you described from your vision." She nodded and Edward looked at me with a surprised expression. I indulged myself in saying,
"That's right vampire boy, I know what I'm talking about. When he ran, he ran straight that way…" I pointed straight out the Charlie's window. "… For five minutes, thank you very much." I turned around to face Edward and said: "Now do you believe me?"
Edward nodded and walked over to Alice. "What do you think this means?" She shook her head.
"I don't know, but Carlisle probably does." She motioned for me to go out the door before her and as we walked down the stairs she said: "We have to go there now, Charlie could be in grave danger." She grimaced and continued the rest of the way down the stairs. "I could hear her mumble the words. "We all could be..."
Hmph. On to the next chapter. Review REVIEW! Thanks.
