Bellas POV

I screamed

When I saw who it was I instinctively backed towards the door, hoping to run out and find Jake and Sam, before they would take me back.

But Edward was holding something I needed, and I wasn't about to leave here, if he had that in his hand. He knew that I wasn't going to leave with out it, so that was probably why he was holding it. But how he knew that envelope held unanswered questions was beyond me.

But all that mattered was that he knew. I stopped and stood there unsure if what to do about it. Edward saw my expression and smiled.

"You know Bella, we weren't going to hurt you, it would've been easier if you just stayed, you're in danger here." I scowled, I'd already been in danger but I had gotten out of it.

"I can look after myself." I said and he raised his eyebrows at that.

"Can you? So what happened in the alleyway yesterday was fine then?" My eyes welled up with tears as I remembered what I had done, as he saw my face, his expression instantly turned to regret and his eyes burned with guilt. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-" and he took a few steps forward, at which I took a few back.

"Stay away." I said and he stopped in his tracks. His arm was dangling uselessly at his side with the will in his hand, held loosely. I calculated my chances of grabbing the will and getting away, and to be honest they were pretty good.

"Bella, I am really sorry" I held up my hand to stop him.

"It's fine." I whispered and he took another step forward, and with me acting like superman (or in my case superwoman) I ran forward and snatched the will out of his surprised hand and ran out the door. Behind me I heard him curse and run out the house after me.

I decided that it would be best just to run back to the bonfire, where I would be safe, so I headed out towards the cliffs. I was a few minutes away from them when I heard a car pull up beside me. I didn't look to see who it was, even though I had a feeling.

I turned my head and my suspicions were confirmed, it was the silver Volvo. I scowled, Couldn't they just leave me alone! And I headed in the forest to hide. I knew this was risky as I might not be able to find my way out again, but I wasn't just about to be taken back by them.

So yet again i began my trek through the murky forest of Washington. I could hear footsteps crunching behind me, but i pushed myself faster until the footsteps were far in the distance.

I knew i couldn't out run them forever, and there was a high chance i would get lost, so looking around i spotted a space between two trees that would make me invisible from the path, if i angled myself right.

So i sat down between these two trees and a bush was in the way, so i couldn't see much of the path, i just hoped the path couldn't see too much of me either.

I heard footsteps coming closer, but as they neared closer they split up one going one way the other going in the opposite direction and one coming ever closer to me.

I resisted the temptation to cover my ears with my hands, because if i did that i would have no idea of where they were, i could only hope that they went away soon.

But in front of me coming through the bushes, came a big figure. As he got closer, i realised i recognised him as one of the people who was chasing me in Seattle the time before.

I opened my mouth to scream realising that i was in danger, but a soft feminine hand clamped over my mouth and another man joined the first, both had evil grins.

" Well, Isabella, we have you at last. You really pissed off Victoria." And he gestured behind me towards the woman, who in return growled at me " When you killed James, they were going to be married you know in a few months."

My eyes widened in fear, guilt and shame at what i had done. If they didn't hate me before because of my mother, they certainly did now.

" She is going to avenge his death, along with everyone your father and his little friend killed." I gulped, knowing that pain was about to come. But no one was around at the moment to save me.

Well one person could.. but if i could only scream.

As if reading my thoughts this man continued on. " There is no one around to hear you scream, you're all alone in the middle of this forest, no one to save you this time."

The hand around my mouth tightened.

" My name is Laurent." He continued and then gestured to his companion. " And this is Aro, we want to hear you scream and beg our names as we kill you, and i am not going to lie to you, it will hurt."

The tears began to stream down my face as Laurent came ever closer to me with a knife, when he reached me, he ripped the sleeve off my top and put the knife point to the top of my arm, the hand was taken off my mouth and the knife broke the skin.

He trailed the knife from the top of the arm all the way to my wrists. I couldn't help but scream out in agony as i saw the blood pour from my arm, and i could defiantly feel it as well.

My vision blurred, but i welcomed it this time, if i was unconscious i wouldn't feel or see myself die.

Through the blackness i could feel the knife being placed at the top of my left arm this time, but before it could break through the knife was knocked away.

I forced myself to not faint, and through my hazy vision i could see Emmett holding Laurent's wrist, his face twisted with rage. Edward had hold of Aro and they were fighting, from what i could see it looked like both were trying to knock my attackers unconscious. Jasper was no where to be seen so he must be...

Victorias hold of me loosed and i felt her being thrown off me. I looked behind and she was slumped against a tree unconscious, but with no sign of an injury.

Most of the fear that was inside me ran away as the attackers were now unconcious, but some of it stayed, because i knew what was going to happen next, this was something i had wanted to prevent at all costs.

I knew that i was feeling too sick to try and run away again, so i was stuck with what to do.

I was lifted up by some strong arms, I knew they were Jaspers as Emmett was placing the unconscious bodies hidden from view and Edward was taking his t-shirt off in front of me. And boy he did have a nice body.

Jasper supported me and Edward placed his t-shirt on my arm to stop the bleeding.

" Thanks." I said but it came out all garbled. He chuckled relieved and kept the support on my arm.

Jasper and Edward guided their way out of the forest as though they had been playing in it their whole lives, but to me it was just a bunch of green leaves, trees and moss. An alien planet

With every step that we took i was beginning to see more clearly and my strength came back , so i started scheming on how to get away from them again.

After a minute my plan was formed, when we get to the road ( i needed them to find a way out of here), I would run straight to the cliffs and shout for help.

It seemed like a good plan at the time, but in practice it didn't work out so great.

When we finally emerged from the trees, i tried to make a run for it.

I yanked out of Jaspers grip around my waist and out of Edwards light grip on my arm. Surprised they let go, but not before i managed to start to run for it.

But unfortunately they recovered fast and before i could get away arms wrapped themselves around my waist and pulled me back.

I groaned in frustration and the person who was holding me laughed.

" Be reasonable Bella, we're going to be much more careful this time." But oh no i wasn't going down without a fight, so i struggled and kicked out as Edward picked me up. " Bella, don't make me get Jasper to sedate you." He said as he threw me over his shoulder.

" You wouldn't dare." I threatened but i stopped struggling just in case. He chuckled again as we walked towards the silver Volvo, in which Emmett and Jasper were already seated in the front seats.

Which meant i would get stuck with Edward again.

Oh the joy.

This time Edward made sure the door on my side was locked and strapped me in properly. Before we set off Edward got out a clean shirt from the trunk of the car and put it on, it fitted his muscles perfectly.

They weren't going to take cautions again, and when Edward got back into the car, he picked up a needle full of some liquid off the floor and casually waved it in my direction as he placed it in a bag, as though reminding me to behave.

I sighed, crossed my arms over my chest and rolled my eyes.

As Emmett hit the gas, i noticed in the distance that we were going to have to pass the cliff tops on which the bonfires were still being held.

Edward noticed my stare.

" Bella don't even think about it." He warned but it was too late.

As we passed the bonfires i slammed my fists against the window again and again as loud as i could and shouted out at the top of my voice.

" JACOB! SAM! JARED!! HELP!!" I saw Embry glance at the car as we drove past but we were gone before he had time to register me into his drunken brain. Edward pulled me away from the window.

" Bella, i told you, can't you just behave for a bit."

I gave him a stare which plainly said ' Do you want me to answer that.' He sighed frustrated and reached into his bag.

"Sorry Bella, but we cant risk it again." My stomach sank as i realised what he was doing.

" No plea-" I tried to beg but he stuck the needle into the top of my left arm and i immediately started to feel drowsy.

" When i wake up, I am going to kill you." I tried and failed to threaten, my voice half full with lethargy, and he just smirked at me.

" Sure you will." He laughed and with that i slumped sideways, unconscious onto his chest.
