I had lost control. My power had slipped from my grip, and it caused me to hurt the people that I cared about. With the last bit of power that I could control I pushed Jacob, Emily, Sam, Rosalie and Carlisle from the house. If I didn't make it I wanted to make sure they did. All of them had families. I took their ability to move, so they wouldn't come and try to save me.

I heard Jacob yelling, and Emily sobbing into Sam's chest. I couldn't make out separate words. I had finally succumbed to the pain, and just hoping that my child would make it.

I felt the power radiating from my body. I'm not sure how long it lasted, but I knew that some other vampires had met up with the Cullens, Jake, Sam, and Emily. I couldn't tell who though. I floated feet above the ground, at one point having my nose touch the ceiling. Suddenly it all stopped. I plummeted to the ground, not even able to catch myself. Luckily there was a bed of soft plants to land on.

I saw Claiborne run into the tiny cabin, I tried to block the others from coming in but I was so exhausted that I couldn't even freeze anyone. She ran next to me and yelled for Kenda. Kenda came in and brought some water around me to cool my overheated body. If I was human I would have had a horrible fever. I could tell that Cielo had joined the rest of my family because I felt a tiny calming breeze. I guessed that Aidan was standing in the door because neither Carlisle nor Rosalie had entered.

After about twenty minutes of cooling down I was back to a normal vampires temperature. "Where's the baby?" I asked my family. Everyone in the tiny cabin looked away unable to look me in the eyes. "Please…" I made myself sound as pitiful as possible, making them feel guilty for not giving me the information that I needed.

"Bella," Aidan said, finally gathering his courage to answer. "We don't know. One minute you were pregnant and floating and the next moment you had collapsed."

I looked at him with horror plainly written on my face. "Wait, you mean that I went through that horrible ordeal where I might have killed some of the most important people in my life, and we can't find my child, the only reason I went through it in the first place?" Aidan had moved away from the door and Carlisle came in. Through the doorway I could see the rest of the Cullens as well. "Great, just great, not only am I the weakest I've been since my transformation, but my child is missing, and the people that I have been dieing to see show up." I said gesturing towards the Cullens. "Wait a minute. I'm sorry; they WERE the people that I would have died for. Sorry, I had confused you guys for a family that had actually cared about me."

Both vampire families looked at me in shock. I felt a wave of calm ripple through the air and just sent back a wave of distress. "Dammit Jasper, I just lost my child and your trying to calm me down." I stared disgusted. Finally realizing what had happened I held my head in my hands and sobbed dryly. I had just lost my child, and had no idea of where I should even start looking. I started muttering under my breath, "Oh my god. My baby."

Edward pushed his way through his and my family, and stood next to me, unsure of what to do. He ended up kneeling next to me and wrapping his arms around me. I was too shocked and over whelmed to even think to push him away. I felt so helpless. I couldn't do anything to help my child.

I raised my head with a start. "Oh shit!" I looked around and noticed both Jacob and Sam shaking. They trembled with the force of the awaiting transformation. They had only just gotten used to having one vampire around without needed to transform, and having 11 vampires there had just been testing fate. "Guys… You need to get the hell out of here now." I heard all of the vampires start to argue with me. I growled sending a warning to them.

When they still didn't leave my side I used my weakened power and moved them off of the reservation. Hopefully the time of the loophole was over. I turned back to Jacob and Sam only to see them still shaking violently. "Emily…" I said in a quiet voice, hoping to not disturb the concentration of the two werewolves. "I would advise that you quietly get yourself next to me as soon as possible. I'm not sure if they'll manage to get themselves under control soon enough to not hurt you." She looked horrified, but ended up lightly running straight to where I was. I was almost surprised at how much she must have trusted me, a vampire, to willingly run closer to me.

I stood my ground and watched as Sam quickly got control of his powers, what surprised me though was the fact that Jacob's shaking had continued to get worse. I was confused, usually he had the best control, and to loose it now, when I was the only vampire around was surprising. What I didn't notice but should have was Jacob suddenly charging towards me. He leapt in the air and transformed knocking me over and landing squarely on my chest. "Sam!" I yelled, scared, just not for myself. "Get Emily out of here!" She had already been disfigured and had lived a harder life then she deserved, and I would do anything possible to save her from even the tiniest amount of pain.

I quickly watched Sam's retreating back while he held Emily in his arms, protecting her from any danger that could befall her. With Sam and Emily safe I tuned back to my problem, how could this be affecting Jacob now? He was fine for the entire six months that I lived with him while I was pregnant.

Jacob had jumped on me. I hadn't done anything, just making sure that even after I made my escape Jacob wouldn't go after others. Jacob slashed at my stomach leaving a bloody gash. I screamed, I could still feel the pain from giving birth and adding yet another injury was too much.

I used the little strength that I had to push Jacob off of me. I slowly stood up and watched as Jacob charged again. Without realizing it I had started to run. My legs carried me away from the danger faster then I would have even thought possible. I felt the wind whipping through my hair and I would have sworn that yet again I was practically floating, though I wasn't using my power.

The initial reaction wore of and my only thoughtless running had allowed my thoughts to roam. My feet knew where to go so I had all the time to think. My mind processed thought after thought so quickly that I almost didn't understand what I was thinking. By the time that I made it to the edge of the reservation I figured out the answers to my missing child.

Alice, Claiborne and Victoria…


Authors Note: I want to apologize for the shortness of this chapter. I have a concussion, or at least I've gotten two concussions in the last day. Please don't ask how, long story short, I no longer like footballs, or pitch tosses. I know that this is really short, but I do have an excuse. I'll try to get to the longer chapters, just know that I have no weekend because I'm going to be working myself until I'm practically dead. Please don't expect too much of me in the next two weeks.
