A/N A special thanks to OoJasper'sAngeloO who did the beta work on this chapter as my other beta has disappeared. A strong warning, there is some gore in this chapter. It is gruesome and it will be when Bella goes into the house. Please don't read if you can't handle it.

I still do not own Twilight or any of the characters.

Bella's POV

I was having the most amazing dream about Jasper. I saw him standing on top of a cliff. His jeans were dirty and torn like he had been in a fight. His shirt, a flannel button up, was undone completely and blowing away from his body in the wind. His expression was hard, and feral.

I had never seen anything so hot, and watching him just stand there like that had me so turned on. He was looking at something that I couldn't see. He suddenly turned and was coming straight to me. I was wanting to touch him, taste him and at first I was sure that he wanted the same from me. It changed as soon as he got to me.

His expression was still hard but it was his words that brought an ice cold fear, "Isabella, do not go in there. You don't want to see him like this."

He tried to stop me, but for some reason he couldn't. I felt myself running. I wasn't sure where I was running to but it wasn't long before I saw a house. It wasn't a house that I had ever seen, but somehow I knew my dad was in there so I ran inside.

All I could see was blood. It was everywhere. I didn't touch anything but when I looked down, there was blood all over my hands. Suddenly I heard a very familiar voice. It was my dad's voice and when I looked up he was standing a few feet away.

How he was standing I wasn't sure because his body was mangled, and his throat had been torn out. He just looked at me with sadness in his eyes and said, "Bells, that's my blood on your hands. Why did you kill me?" I screamed!

I'm still not sure what woke me up except that I was screaming. Char came flying into the room ready to take on my attacker. It took both of us a minute or so to realize that there was no one else in the room. I told Char that I needed to get to my dad's house right now.

She tried to argue with me saying to at least wait until she could call the Major and have him go with me. I explained that I couldn't wait, Dad was in danger and I needed to make sure he was safe. She reminded me that since I was only human, I couldn't protect my dad from a vampire.

I told her that I would call to see if the wolf pack was watching the house, but I was still going. I called Billy and he explained that he had told Paul and they were patrolling around dad's house. He also told me that they have been seeing a lot of strange vampires in the area in the last twelve hours.

I told him that I was with three vampires now that were trying to keep me safe but I felt like my dad was in danger. He said he would try to contact one of the wolves to make sure there was extra protection for my dad.

With that I hung up and told Char, "Now, you either fucking take me to my dad's house or I'm going alone. Either way I'm going right now!"

I knew she wanted me to wait until she could get in touch with Jasper, but I was really frightened for dad. I needed to see for myself that he was alright. She quickly grabbed the keys to the truck and we took off like a couple of bats out of hell.

Jasper's POV

I had just dropped the piece of scum I had drained. As far as I was concerned he was the lowest of the lowlife. Peter had an inkling of where he was holed up. He had kidnapped and sexually assaulted several children. He would use them for days and then kill them when he was done with them.

There were actually a couple of little girls that he still had captive in his cellar. One looked to be about twelve and the other couldn't be any older than five. Yeah, he was one sick bastard. This was one body that would stay here. We just set it up to look like a robbery gone bad.

The police would get an anonymous phone call and they would be told to check the cellar. We couldn't let the girls see us, but they were very scared. I sent them some calm and a feeling of safety, before putting them to sleep. At least they would sleep in their own beds tonight, thanks to us monsters.

We waited for the police to arrive, out of sight. We wanted to make sure they found the girls. I just wish they would hurry the fuck up. The pain in my chest was bad, I needed to get back to Bella. I didn't like being so far away from her.

The police had just pulled up when the pain hit me even harder. I was just about to call Char to check on her when the pain hit. I fell to my knees and dropped my phone. Peter I guess knew something had happened and told me to just go. He did throw his phone at me in case I needed it.

I took off back towards Forks. Something felt wrong. I knew that I hadn't bonded with my mate yet, but this felt like there was one already there. I pushed my legs to go faster. It was as if my own life depended on getting back to her. I just fuckin' hope that whatever is wrong doesn't end up killing me.

Peter's POV

As soon as I saw the police come out with the two girls I took off after my brother. My "knower" was goin' off like crazy now. Something was wrong and I could only hope that the Major would get there in time. Where ever "there" was. It wasn't the hotel we were stayin' at.

I had ran for about five minutes when Jasper's phone went off. Shit, it was Alice. I guess she might have more information so I decided to answer, "What do you know Alice?"

"Where's Jasper Peter? I need to talk to him, now!"

"He's not available right now Alice. Did you call for a reason, or just to piss him off again?"

"Peter please, this is not about me. Are you still in Seattle checking on those deaths? If you are Jasper needs to find Bella's place and check to make sure she's okay. I just had a vision of a vampire grabbing her."

"As usual Alice you are too little, too late. She was already grabbed by a vampire. Char was able to chase the bastard off. She had a few bruises but otherwise she's fine."

"What about all of the blood I saw surrounding Bella?"

"Well, there wasn't much blood when the vampire was done, so I have no clue what you are talking about. I can tell ya that Bella has found her mate in the Major. He's protectin' her himself, and you know from the stories I'm sure, that he's one dangerous motherfucker."

"I hope you realize that Edward is Bella's mate. Peter, if the Major believes Bella is his mate you have to convince him that he's wrong. He could hurt her if he's as dangerous as I've been told. Bella could never be attracted to him, she still loves Edward, they are mates after all."

I really didn't have time for this shit, but I couldn't really say anything to Alice. You see, the Major knew that if other vampires knew who he was, they would keep coming to fight him. So, while Alice and the rest of the Cullen's know that Jasper did fight in Maria's army, they have no clue that he IS the Major. They believe that Jasper fought along side the Major.

"Peter, please, just have Jasper check on Bella and see if he'll get her away from the Major before he hurts her. I keep seeing blood all around her. I'll get in touch with Edward and have him come pick her up from where ever Jasper takes her to keep her safe. I'll probably come with him to try to convince Jasper that he needs to stop being silly and come home."

Again, I didn't have fuckin' time for this fucked up shit. I just told her I would pass the message along and hung up. It was only a few minutes later that the phone rang again. This time it was Char. She was trying to get in touch with the Major.

At first all I could hear were screams. No, it was more like wailin'. Char was frantic and yelled for us to hurry up and get to Charlie's house. I heard her drop the phone, and then nothing.

It took me a few minutes but I finally caught up to the Major and told him everything that Alice had said, and then about the call from Char. I never thought I would ever see a look of fear on the Major's face, but it was there now. I could only hope that both of our mates were alright.

Bella's POV

Char was driving way too fucking slow for me. It felt like the drive to dad's house was taking forever. She was going over the speed limit, so she wasn't really going slow at all. It just felt like I needed to get to dad's faster.

I was told by Billy that Paul and the rest of the pack was watching dad's place, but I didn't like the feeling that something wasn't right. I had been trying to call dad since we left the hotel but he wasn't answering. He should have answered since he was off today, and was expecting me to be home. The closer we got to the house the more frightened I became for my dad. Something was very wrong.

Once we got to the house I realized that I couldn't see any of the wolves. Of course they would have to hide as it was early afternoon. Dad's cruiser was in the driveway so I knew he was home. Just as I was about to open the door Char stopped me.

"Bella, I need you to stay in the truck. I'm going to go in and check things out."

"I don't fucking think so, this is my dad and I'm going in!"

"Please Bella, just do as I ask. I'll call Jasper but you need to let me go in first."

"Why?" was my brilliant answer.

"I smell blood Bella. Just stay in the truck until I come and get you."

I wasn't stupid. I knew that I couldn't get past her, so I told her I would wait. I would wait, until she was inside and then go in after her. I did ask her if she could smell the wolves close by. The next words out of her mouth made me even more determined to go inside, "The wolves are not here right now, but they were. There are also several different vampire scents around."

Char got out and I waited until she was inside and then jumped out and ran in behind her. I could hear my dad's voice yelling at me to run. To make Jasper take me and run. I went straight into the house and then froze.

There was blood everywhere. On the walls, floors, and furniture. I looked around frantically and finally saw something that made my stomach heave, and I lost most of the contents of my last meal. There, on a table right next to the TV, was my dad's head. His eyes had been ripped out of their sockets.

There was a video playing on the TV. Who ever had done this had it recorded. My dad was being tortured, but I couldn't see the one who was responsible for this. I just started screaming. Not my dad! He was all I have left in the world! He's the only one who will never leave me!

I know that as soon as I'm out of danger that Jasper and his friends are going to leave me. I'm just a plain fucking human. They have no reason to stay around. Maybe I should just let this vampire have me. There's no one else left to miss me, I'm all alone now.

I could hear some kind of strange sound and it took me a couple of minutes to realize that the sound was coming from me. I was half screaming, half choking. Suddenly I felt myself being carried out of the house. I started to fight who ever it was until I realized it was only Char.

She had her arms around me, holding me close to her chest. I could hear her talking and I think she said something about she had called the Major and he was on his way. I wasn't sure if I was hearing correctly, because my head was spinning, and my stomach heaved again and I lost the rest of my stomach contents.

She kept saying how sorry she was. I couldn't understand why she was sorry, she hadn't killed my dad. What I couldn't figure out was where were the wolves? They should have been here, protecting him.

I collapsed on the ground and just screamed and sobbed. My dad was gone, he had been my rock for the last five years. Now, when I needed him the most, he was gone. He was stolen from me. I lost it, and just kept screaming.

Char was doing her best to console me, but for me there isn't any more peace. How could I have come here and put Charlie in danger? This was all my fault. I needed Jasper. I hated that I needed him, but I did.

I don't know how long I sat there in the rain, crying and screaming. I do know that I suddenly felt strong arms wrap around me gently and pick me. I was in Jasper's arms and I felt better. He didn't try to move he just held me while I cried.

I did hear him talking to Peter and then Peter and Char went in the house. He kept saying how fucking sorry he was that he didn't get here in time.

He finally carried me to the truck and got in the back with me. He put me in his lap and just continued to hold me. I don't know how long we sat there but eventually, Peter and Char came back out.

I could hear them talking but I wasn't paying any attention to what they were saying. It didn't matter anyway. My dad was gone. I finally came to the conclusion that this was all Edward's fault. If he hadn't left, then those that I loved and called family would still be alive. The family could have taken care of Victoria and then everyone would still be here.

I heard Peter say something that made my blood run cold. Not for fear for myself, but fear that Jasper, Peter, or Char might get hurt or killed because of me. He told Jasper that there had been a message left for me, it said, "Welcome home Bella, you're next!"

A/N Please let me know your thoughts. I know that there were those who didn't want Charlie to have to be turned or killed because he had to be told the truth. As you can see, it didn't get that far. I hated to kill Charlie but its necessary to get the story to go where I need it to go. Bella will find out later why her dad thought that Edward had killed Renee because he was threatening her to keep Bella with him. Thanks to all who reviewed, and added this story to their favorites and alerts. I love you guys.
