Edward Cullen

Bella had acted strangely tonight. She had treated her father callously and become very uncharacteristically demanding. She would never do that, not in a million of years even if she live that long, I wanted so much to blame her newfound responsibility as a Cardcaptor, to held it responsible and put an end to this ultimately.

But I can't. She wanted this; she wanted to be responsible for this.

Typically Bella.

I winced as I remembered the venom in her words and felt confused as the glistening tears from her eyes threatened to fall; it was as if she was two different people. I swerved the Volvo violently back to the side road and was lucky there are no innocent drivers on the side road, or else I will be held responsible for murders. Again after so many years ago. I sucked in the chilly air as vociferation of warnings rang in my head as the Volvo cruised dangerously on the road but the undeniable nagging feeling is too heavy to bear. I need an answer and I need it now.

Jacob Black will have to answer to me.

"I hope you're not thinking of starting a war just because you want to chat with me?" Jacob seemed to be utterly surprised as he saw me standing just behind the line where the Quileute tribe set their boundaries.

I am not insane or thoughtless to actually set foot on Quileute reservation "No Jacob, I have concern for you to answer to"

Jacob nose scrunched in fury "Of course, I would do anything to lift your concern, count me in to be the leeches' lover"

'I'm serious Jacob" My eyes felt dead and I knew the wolf knew that too.

"She's facing the consequences" Jacob let out a sigh but his eyes fierce as it is "She wasn't suppose to know the answer"

"What answer?" I have grown impatient "Tell me all about it"

"Not all bloodsucker, take it this way, she's not Bella, she's a mixture of something else now. She would do and say anything that was out of her character"

I nodded "Obviously" I said to myself.

"She's powerful and yet incomplete. Yuzen will take you in; he'll talk about it with you."

"Thank you Jacob, I am grateful for this" Truthfully I said

"Whatever" he snorted "Just get the hell out of here"

At home, my family is waiting in the living hall; each of them wore a worried and weary expression. Alice must've seen something because her mind is deeply disturbed and unreadable.

"What is it?" I asked, panic started to rose inside me. The hollowness tightening my chest as Alice looks up to face me

"I'm losing Bella" Alice closed her eyes then "I can't get anything from her! Is she with the wolves?"

"I left her at her house, she wanted me gone" Sorrow filled my tone.

"This is not good, not good" Alice kept repeating herself

It was like she was…dead Edward…

"No!" I growled furiously "Don't say that"

"Strain yourself!" Jasper said sternly, his body shielding Alice's.

"What happen Edward?" Carlisle asked, his eyes went from me to Alice and Esme looked so worried.

"I don't know how to explain this, I have to go back to Bella's house" I said urgently, fear burning in my voice and I knew my family can hear that.

Alice shot me a sympathetic look "Edward there is no use, she's not there"

"I thought you can't see her?"

No I can't, because the last time I saw her…

"You thought she's dead" The statement buried in my pain "But you could be wrong" I said hollowly.

"Please, whatever it is Edward, think this through" Esme pleaded.

Please don't put us through that again… Esme thought; referring to the Volturi incident that almost caused Bella, Alice and my life.

"She's right Edward, We should go see Yuzen" Alice stand up "I know where he is"
