'I guess we thought that's just what humans do

Letting darkness grow

If we need it's palette and we need it's color

But now I've seen it through

And now I know the truth'- Ellie Goulding


It was complete darkness, that was the first thing Sawyer noticed as he came too. He was very confused as he collected his thoughts from the last few things he recalled over the past couple days. Going to the old diner with Linds' to discus the completely ridiculous lawsuit he was having to go through still. Then when Fred had interrupted their conversation, which in turn got interrupted by the crazy rain of fire. She had taken them to some former acquaintance's of lawyer-man's that seemed to make him awful ansey on the way, well till they saw everyone totally knocked out by something kept calling 'The Beast', which sounded super stupid.

After they got there so had other a bunch of people and to be frank he hadn't bothered to keep them all straight. He did notice the woman who had the big tits who accused his lawyer of being evil or whatever though. When people weren't paying attention she had taking to showing him around the hotel she said the dude named Angel owned. Whatever. It was around the third floor maybe when they started pawing at each other like horny teenagers and he threw her into the random room. Which as he now turned on the light, he realized it was one of the cleaning closets. They had just about to go all the way when she got the crazy glossed over look and her eyes went white.

"What do you think you're doing you big idiot!?"

"Um, I thought we were going have some great sex but now that your acting like this I'd guess no..?"

"I don't CARE what she's doing to you right now, leave her alone till I can get there to you both and can help complete the ceremony! If you ruin what I have worked so hard for for the past few months I WILL kill you slowly and painfully. And by the way, you may take care of the girl's purity yourself once I give you the ok WHEN I GET THERE - got it?!", and suddenly she was back to normal and when she realized he was right there she looked both horrified and angry.

"What did you hear?"

"Enough to know that your probably behind that crazy ass weather change I experienced earlier and even more, right?", trying to back away in the small space. It was too late though she lifted up a big fry pan that for some odd reason had been in there and then all he knew was darkness.

So currently Sawyer was stomping his way to the lobby when he heard yelling as he got closer and closer. In fact that was a hell of a lot for a group to even understand what they were saying to another. As he entered the room all he could make do was a group of girls were just sitting there kind of looking bored at the scene as they freaking sharpened their weapons. The vampire group people were yelling at the people that made Lins' ansey. And Fred was still trying to heal that dude who she said was her boyfriend but was making moon eyes at some serious hardcore looking British guy with a wicked scare on his neck. After a few moments of not being able to make out what the hell ANY of them were saying to one another he finally snapped.

"HEY- SHUT THE HELL UP ALL OF YOU!", which quite effectively silenced them all but got the tan brunette girl pissy.

"And why should we listen to you, you probably don't even know what it is were yelling about! Besides where did you go? You've been gone a while", one of the girls sharpening the weapons pointed out.

"Oh God, they're right. I swear Lindsey if you brought somebody into my hotel that is planning on killing us all I WILL kill you - soul or not!", the brunette guy with the big forehead said.

"Um Angel you DO know he's one of the survivors of the Oceanic Flight? He couldn't give less of a shit about you - but seriously where you James?", Lindsey asked him dryly.

"Oh you know. Big tits, Cordelia, that is was showing me the place when we started acting like those teens over there. We decided to get a room when suddenly she starts to glow like a freaking lava lamp and yelling at somebody who wasn't me about keeping somebody pure or some shit. When I inquired she knocked me out with a fucking pan and was long gone when I came to"

Everyone was gapping at him at this revelation, but Angel seemed skeptical, "Cordy would never do that, she is the sweetest person-"

"YEAH right Angel-cakes! You only think that because you want in her pants. Don't you recall what she said to you the entire week you were back to 'comfort' you after Buffy died? She compared you to being a loser and obsessed freak because you were confused over that case. THAT isn't sweet - that' manipulative and you know it", Lorne pointed out as he slapped him on the shoulder.

"That maybe the case but we still don't know where Cordy, Bella OR The Beast for that matter will be being kept right now so lets leave this 'sweetness' discussion for later maybe? We should be deciding our battle tactic right now, also where the crap they maybe?", Buffy added.

"Fashionista", Jasper's phone buzzed. He looked down at it. HAVE YOU STILL NOT TOLD THE GROUP TO MEET AT THAT FACTORY TONIGHT AT 10PM!? MOVE IT MISTER!

"What is it Jazz?", Esme inquired with a worried look.

"Alice has seen where Bells is being held, she says be at _ and _ by 10 tonight, no later or this ceremony thing will happen that we really don't want to happen"

"Question: what if we don't save her in time?", a now conscious Gunn asked.

"She is raped of her purity by The Beast, which in turn begin's the end of the world ritual so what do you think?"

"Does Edward know about this Jazz..?", Rosalie asked softly but managed to be heard by everyone.

"I thought it would be best not to tell him, Alice says him and Carlisle have been held up at the border of Mexico because of Edwards passport but they -might- get here in time. The officials keep changing their minds so we have to works around that for now. That's why I haven't told him also it maybe they get delayed and by the time they arrive she is saved. He has already suffered enough I don't want him knowing this"

"Well as her Uncle I don't think that's quite a fair statement, yes I haven't always been there and wasn't there to see this relationship. If I had been it would have been stopped believe me - I know everything about your kind, I met Aro and loathe every single one of you so the fact that my niece DATED one I'm quite angry is an understatement. When he does get here I will be having words, I know physically I can't hurt him but emotionally - that's a whole different ball game ain't it?"

*TL* *TL* *TL*

Her face was throbbing with the pain now and she was quite positive is had swollen twice it's normal size, also if she had a mirror in her possession she see the ugly colors now marring her face as well. Why couldn't they just go ahead and kill her already? It seemed like she had been in this candle-covered room for weeks now but from what she recalled the thing said she would only live for 24 more hours, well less now. It couldn't have changed it's mind, could it?

"I thought you would never arrive Mistress, this annoying mortal wouldn't stop crying", she suddenly heard the monster say from across the room. As she looked up she saw a beautiful brunette room dressed in a long black dress that she had never seen the likes of before really. Well maybe Alice had now that thought of it, which made her hole twinge. It had see-through lace on the sleeves, and she would guess the back but a different material for the rest of the dress. It looked cotton or maybe satin? It was hard to tell with this lighting. But the cut was flattering for her but she looked awful familiar...OH she was in one of the photos her Uncle sent her!

"I know you...my Uncle told me about you in the letters he sent me", Bella rasped out. It hurt her throat to speak with the lack of water and from the screaming she had done to try and get help.

The woman's eyes narrowed, "What does that mean virgin? Your nothing, you mean nothing!"

"My Uncle Lindsey is so going to kick your ass once he finds you", she put on a weak smirk. She had already let go of the fact the Cullens were not coming for her, but she still had her Uncle.

"Oh PLEASE- that crappy hick of a lawyer? I'm shaking in my heals!", she cackled as she whipped Bella's back once.

Without warning though the entrance of the room blew open and several figures came in with weapons drawn. One figure stood out: Lindsey McDonald

"Are you sure about that 'shaking in your heals' comment now Cordy?"
