Chapter 14: Captured

BPOV

Over the whole weekend, Lucas and I spent our time helping Odette to adjust to her new life as a Hybrid. We taught her most of the things we could already do, like shifting into animals that we see. She had decided to try something easy and settled on a swan but it took us a while to get her back to normal since she had panicked. Eventually we had to get Jasper to calm her down enough to help her. Then it came to telling her about Edward and his family. At first she didn't believe us but then I pulled out the one photo that I had hidden of me and Edward and her face fell. She couldn't believe it. Carlisle allowed her to test out their hard skin. When the fork he handed her dented and his skin was flawless she finally believed us.

I was still so angry at myself. I should have been able to protect my friends. When I saw the vampire that Victoria sent next to Odette I wanted it to be her instead so one of the nightmares would be over, but it wasn't. Now I was on full scale alert. When Lucas took her home I sat down with Jacob. Edward was away patrolling with Emmett, Jasper, Carlisle and Rosealie so I had some time to speak to him. "Jacob. I need your help," I told him, "Sure Bella. What is it?" I knew he wasn't going to like this but I needed it. "I need you to let me see your wolf form," he stared at me confused, "I need it so I can also take form. You are a creature who could easily kill a vampire and I want to be one so I can be the one to destroy Victoria. I'm going to go after her on my own and finish her." He jumped up off the chair. "No way Bella. I am not letting you go on your own after her. I would be more than happy to let you take the wolf form that we are, but you are not going on your own. Do you promise you won't?" I looked him straight in the eye. "Yes okay I will." We shook hands on it and I felt bad hat I was lying to him.

We went outside and I turned my back, allowing him to shift without being embarrassed by me. Something nudged my shoulder and I turned to find Jake's nose I my face. "Don't worry. You don't need to do anything and I promise you no harm will come," I assured him as I slowly raised my hands and buried them into his soft fur. His skin was so warm as I placed my hands flat on his neck. The small power surge went through me and I eventually let go. I could become a wolf easily now. It wasn't long after that, Lucas arrived back home. "She will be fine. In one way I'm so guilty that this happened to her, but at the same time I want to thank you Bella." I looked at him oddly, "Thank me, why?" "Because now I won't lose her. When I took her home I told her about the fact that after we leave here and the summer holidays come, we would be leaving. She had agreed to come with us." I was so happy for him that I had almost forgotten that we would be leaving here once the competition was over and then I wouldn't be with Edward anymore. At the thought of that, I burst into tears and ran up to my room and closed the door over, jamming the chair under it so no one could get in and I collapsed onto the bed and cried my heart out.

There were knocks on the door every so often and I kept hearing Edward begging me to let him in, but I didn't have the heart to. I had only just got him back and now I was going to lose him again. I must have fallen asleep because when I woke up, it was dark outside with a full moon shining down. The house was awfully quiet except I could hear a discussion going on in the kitchen. I quietly opened the door and crept down the stairs, stopping just before the entrance to hear them. "I don't know what has upset her. I feel really bad," I heard Edward say, the sadness slowly seeping through his voice, "I think I know," I heard Lucas mutter, "It's because Odette has agreed to come with us once we leave. Once this school competition is over, we will have to leave and then when the summer comes, we will be leaving California and all our friends there but I don't know where we will go after that. The fact that I have Odette with me makes me guilty because she will be leaving you behind." The tears softly fell and I looked up to the back door. Taking careful steps I opened the door, shifted into a large white wolf with brown paws I bolted for the woods. I wasn't far in and I howled in pain.

It wasn't fair. These decisions where always hard. If all this hadn't happen then we would have left California and left Odette behind. Then that meant we all would have been unhappy for a long time. I slowly walked for a bit, trying to gather my thoughts when right in front of me Victoria appeared. "Hello Isabella. We meet again," she hissed. I growled and straight away ran after her. She was fast but now I was faster. I pushed myself and I was catching up to her. She jumped over a clear bit of forest floor but I didn't realise why until too late. The ground beneath me and I tumbled into a pit that had metal bars all around it. I tried to jump out when a stinging feeling hit my back leg. I could only turn just enough to see the dart sticking out of my side. My legs felt heavy all of a sudden and I couldn't hold them up any longer. Something warm was trickling through my blood stream and I was woozy. I fell to the hard metal floor and looked up. As my eyes closed I saw Victoria smiling down on me as some dark metal enclosed me in this horrible cage and I hell into a deep sleep wishing that I hadn't run off. Now I would never get to see Edward ever again. "I love you Edward," I whispered in my head before completely succumbing to the darkness.

It had been a long weekend. When Odette was brought in on Bella's back with Rose holding onto her I was amazed that she was still here. Carlisle looked over the girl and Bella kept on crying and blaming herself. The guilt was coming off her so strong that Jasper was finding it hard to be in the room. Odette's breathing became shallow and then Bella came up with the perfect idea. Her blood and Lucas' blood contained the serum that first created their breed. Carlisle got to work straight away and took a large vial of blood from each of them and then injected them into Odette. Her breathing picked up a bit and I took Bella out of the room and sat down with her on the couch. She slowly fell into a deep sleep. I was relieved when Bella woke up to find Odette was okay. We all had to keep the secret that whilst she was asleep, Odette's heart actually stopped and we had to take more blood from Lucas. We managed to save her.

Watching the final stage of the transition was amazing. It was sort of like when we hunted but I felt through Jasper the change happen in the girl. She was so happy that she was now a Hybrid. They gave her the swan necklace and earrings that were for her birthday and then got started on her training. They got her to shift into a creature and she picked a swan but panicked a bit when she couldn't change back. With Jaspers calming effect she was back to her old self. They also told her the dangers about the Wonderkind scientist and Victoria. It took her a little more convincing about the fact that we are vampires, but a fork test and photograph that I didn't know about later for her to believe us all. Emmett couldn't help laughing and she slowly picked up some of her other abilities since she managed to make water come out of one of the vases and form a liquid snake to hover over Emmett and soaked him.

Sam had come in saying that he and the rest of the pack had to go and rest. They had been out patrolling for two days straight whilst we dealt with Odette and helped her adjust. We left and patrolled a wide area but there was no sign of her anywhere. We definably knew that she wouldn't stay away for long and decided to head back. When we arrived, Lucas was sitting on the sofa with his head in his hands. He kept thinking something was his fault. I looked around and realised Bella was not in the room. I listened and heard crying coming from her room. I tried opening the door but it was jammed. "Bella. Are you okay? Can you please open the door for me?" I asked but she just continued to cry. Esme came to my side and shook her head and we went downstairs. Lucas was nowhere to be found. I wanted to ask him about Bella. I went up another couple of times, hoping that she would open up for me but she didn't. She wasn't crying anymore but her breathing was soft so I knew she was asleep. When I returned, Lucas was back. I was feeling bad about the fact I couldn't help my Bella. "I don't know what has upset her. I feel really bad," I said hearing the sadness slowly seeping through my voice, "I think I know," I heard Lucas mutter and I looked up at him, "It's because Odette has agreed to come with us once we leave. Once this school competition is over, we will have to leave and then when the summer comes, we will be leaving California and all our friends there but I don't know where we will go after that. The fact that I have Odette with me makes me guilty because she will be leaving you behind."

It all made sense now. Bella would have to be alone again. This made me feel really bad now. Sam and the rest of the wolves returned. We sat with them all and told them that we couldn't find anything when we all heard a loud howling coming from the woods. We ran to find the back door open. Alice ran upstairs and then returned quickly worried, "Bella's gone. She's not in her room," and I started to panic. "What was that?" Sam muttered, "Or who was it," Jacob muttered. "What do you mean 'Or who was it?'?" I asked. He looked all around. "Well Bella asked me if I could shift so she could take on the form of a shape shifter wolf so she could be to one to destroy that red headed vampire. She wanted to go alone but I made her promise not to. We shook on it and I let her do what she asked."

"How could you do this Jacob," Sam argued. Jacob was becoming angry at him, "I did it because she has a right. That vampire killed her entire family to spite her and the Cullens. I think it's only right that she gets to be the one to kill her, so she can avenge her parents." Bella would think this. She had become stronger. "Let's leave her for a bit, leave her to clear her mind," Esme suggested. We all nodded and went to find something to do. I couldn't stop thinking about her. I didn't want her to leave. I wanted to be with her forever. I ran up to my room, passing by her empty room wishing she was in there so I could comfort her. I felt empty without her around and I kept looking out the windows to see if she was there but there was still no sign of her. I read a couple of books and listened to some music but nothing stopped me from thinking of her. I wanted her to know how much I really love her. I went over to one of my drawers and opened it. I kept little bits and pieces in here and I pulled out the small black velvet box and looked at my mother's ring encased in it. Now there was nothing more I wanted than for it to be placed on Bella's finger. That's it, I would ask her to marry me. Lucas did say that if the time came, he would let her stay with us, we would only be apart until the summer and then I would have her back in my arms once again.

Morning arrived and still Bella had not returned. She did need some time but I just wish that I knew where she had run off too. We decided to go to school, telling the head teachers that Bella had caught that stomach flu that was going around. All through the day, I kept worrying about her. At lunch Alyssa, Adam, Jared and David asked where she was, so when Alice said stomach flu, they didn't ask anymore. I zoned out for the rest of the day and I was eager to get home. As soon as the bell rang Alice, Lucas, Odette and I got into my Volvo whilst Jasper, Rosealie and Emmett took the jeep. I sped down the road and jumped out the car as soon as I got it into the garage. Esme was sitting there with Carlisle and all the wolves. "Is she back yet?" I asked. They just shook their head. "I think it's time we all go and look for her. There has been no sign of her since yesterday," Emmett suggested. Everyone had gathered around and we all decided to set off right away. We each split up in groups except for me. I went on my own. As I went into the woods, I spotted some paw prints and even though Bella was a wolf, I could smell her scent. Above me, Odette and Lucas were flying over the trees to see if they could get a clearer picture.

When I came across a set of Bella's paw prints, there were also some foot prints. I looked at them when I smelled the scent. Victoria had been here. Alice and Jasper appeared next to me, "You caught the scent too," I said and they nodded. Then Carlisle, Esme, Emmet and Rose appeared. "We caught the scent as well and she came here. It stops but then continues that way," I pointed towards where the footprints and paw prints headed in the other direction. We started to follow them when we heard the cry of a swan. Odette did say if they found anything she would call for us. I worried and ran ahead of everyone to where the noise was still sounding from. I broke through the trees followed by everyone else. Lucas had shifted back and Odette followed suit. There was a large square shape buried into the ground. It was quite deep and big. It looked to be about the size of the wolves. There were also some large tyre tracks going off out of the clearing. The wolves appeared moments later but something else caught my eye. On the grass there was something on it. I put my hand down on it and lifted it, freezing as I did. There was blood on my hand but not just any blood, it was Bella's. "She's been taken," I said turning to everyone showing them my red covered hand. They had taken my Bella. My rage increased so much. Now it was war. I promised myself that I would not rest until I got her back.
