Bella POV

The pain began to fade away once again, and my mind became clear. There was no James, he was dead and gone. He had only been a figment of my imagination. Thank God, while Victoria may have been happy to see her lover again, I most
certainly did not share her joy. I felt cold lips upon my own, and followed them like a beacon out of my nightmare.

I opened my eyes to find Edward hovering nervously above me. A green field surrounded the bed, and the whole family minus Esme lurked a safe distance away. This was turning out to be the strangest time in my life by far.

"What's going on?" I asked quietly.

My question was answered not by anyone in the room, but by a voice I had
never thought I would hear again.

"EDWARD, I KNOW YOU'RE UP THERE!!"

I felt the tears rushing to escape. While I had always known I would have to leave my dad eventually, I had thought I would at least get a proper goodbye. But no, that chance had been taken away from me by a cold hearted witch. I longed to run down the stairs and into his arms like I had done when I was six and the summer storms had frightened me. I had sat perfectly still and listened to the rain fall for an hour. Charlie just sat there rubbing soothing circles on my back and telling me stories about how the thunder was just God bowling and he had gotten a strike. While I may have been young, even I had known that was not the case. But it had stopped me from thinking about the storm. It had been one of the few times I had ever been close to my father. I wished I could have had more time with him.

"Bella, I need you to let me out of here." Edward's voice broke through my thoughts, reminding me that we had a problem.

"I can't. I don't even know how I put it up." I shrugged my
shoulders, and tired to think of how to get it down.

"Doesn't Victoria know?" Alice asked.

"Hang on I'll ask her." I searched my mind looking for the women who was sharing my body with me. It was funny how Victoria only popped up into my brain when I was least expecting her to.

(Hello Victoria where are you? I could really use your help.)

(Oh goody is it time to kill someone?)

(No I need your help to take down a force field.)

(Sorry kiddo that's not my fortay. I have no clue on that one. Now if you
need help slicing someone's throat I'm the go to girl. All the hocus
pocus stuff is out of my league.)

I growled in frustration. Some help she was. I was getting nervous, nearly five minutes had past and Charlie was still waiting for Edward. We were all doomed, so I did what any girl in my situation would do. I grabbed Edward, yanked him down to my level, and planted a big kiss right on that perfect mouth of his. He sat back in a stupor not quite sure what to say, his crooked grin coming to the fore.

"Well, I guess that solved it. Bella's super power is kissing. It didn't help us any but was entertaining to see Edward get man handled by a human. If you can call it that," Emmett said cracking his own grin. "Now
to figure out how to take down this field."

"I think I can help."

A new voice said from Edwards's door. My eye's clouded over in anger at the last voice I had wanted to hear, so I said the
first thing that came to mind.

"My God Edward, how many people can your room possibly hold?" He growled loudly and I think he would have killed the girl, had it not been for the field around us.

"Angela, how could you?"

I asked, not bothering to hide the hurt in my voice. I was surprised that no one had attacked her yet. For there being
this many vampire's in one room, there sure was a lot of surprise visitors popping up.

"I didn't want to Bella. I was forced to by Lauren. She's the coven leader you know. I attempted to blotch it, and nearly paid for it with my own life. I was brought back to help you. Look I even put Charlie in a time
freeze so he wouldn't come up here."

As much as I wanted to hate her, I couldn't. I tend to have this whole forgiveness thing going on. I didn't have the strength to hate her right now. I believed her, when she said she was sent to help me. I glanced around at the vampire's, noticing that no one had moved a muscle.

"Did you freeze them to?"

"I had to; they would have killed me before I even got into the room. The vampire's can hear us, but I've also blocked Charlie so he can't. It will save us some time and effort. We have to hurry though, I can't hold on much longer to this spell. I'm not that strong."

Edward looked into my eyes not quite believing I was just going to forgive her like that. His eyes were completely black and he would glance at Angela every so often.

"Now hang on just a minute, she helped kill you earlier, now we are just
going to pretend it didn't happen?"

"Edward, you can read her mind after we get the field down," I
pointed out.

"Bella, if I didn't know she was a witch, then I wouldn't know if she
was lying now," he countered.

"Just trust me Edward, please." I put on my best puppy dog face.

"Okay, but witch if I even hear you breath funny, I will kill you," he
promised meaning every word.

"Fine, so we have an accord then?"

"Yeah whatever, just tell us how to get out of here," I mumbled.

"Okay, sit back and close your eyes." I did as she said.

"Now think of a nice calm happy safe place. Stay completely relaxed. You're
safe Bella. No one can hurt you here."

I thought of my meadow and laying out in the sun with Edward holding me. His skin sparkled like a million diamonds were etched into his skin.

"Okay, open them Bella."

Once again I did as she asked and was beyond thrilled to see the field gone. I stood up and stretched, glad to be free
once again. I hugged Edward, who also stood. He had placed himself between Angela
and me, just to be safe.

"Can you please unfreeze the rest of my family now?" he asked
patiently, I could tell he was reading her thoughts.

"Yeah, sure." She waved her fingers and everyone was able to move again.

Alice looked a little miffed. "I don't like this, why didn't I get a
vision about that happening?"

"Magic my dear." Angela pointed out.

"EDWARD CULLEN GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW OR I'M COMING UP,"

Charlie
screamed, I guess I should have told Angela to leave him frozen for a few
moments more.
