I was hoisted into the air and we were flying through the air as we took off into the unknown. In front was Autumn, her long dirty blonde hair whipping behind he as she took the lead. Fear pounded through me as they began to talk in hushed tones that even my sensitive ears couldn't pick up. My thoughts drifted to my father. I only just reunited with him, was I going to be took away from him again. Alice's face loomed into my mind. Will she se this? Or have they out smarted her? What about Edward? Will he know? I knew something was off about her and no one believed me. Trees and branches hit me but I couldn't feel it, I only heard the loud snap of the twigs breaking. Will I ever see my family again? Will they rip me apart and burn the pieces? I thought back to the argument I had with Edward. He wont even miss me, he has, had Autumn? Will Autumn go back to them, pretend that she never led me to my death? Will she live forever with Edward. Even just thinking his name makes my heart ache. I love him. That's a fact but he doesn't feel the same way. He made that pretty clear. Is there anything else in life for me? I feel in my heart, that there is no one else in the world for me. All my feelings about pay back has went out the window. Yes he made my life hell, but in times like this, payback is unthinkable.
"Put me down! Let me fucking go!" I screeched to them. They didn't even hesitate and we came to abrupt stop. The clearing looked eerie as everything was silent. I sniffed the air but all I could smell was the vampires behind me, as the wind was blowing forwards making my hair block my vision slightly. I knew danger was on the horizon. I was put down but my arms were still held onto. There was the sound of movement and vampires emerged from the trees. About twenty new born stood feet from me, their blood red eyes opened wide in excitement. Their ages varied most of them young enough to not know what they were getting themselves into. Everyone's head swivelled to look at the trees. Two vampires emerged, their teeth gleaming. The first was a female. She had bright orange hair, that was curled and blowing everywhere. She had on a furry shawl draped over her blood splattered green t-shirt. Her jeans were speckled with human blood. Her eyes zoomed in on me and she smiled at me, looking as though her dreams had came true. I tore my eyes away from her face to look at the man. Fear flooded me as I realised I know who he is. Dim memories filled my head. It was me and Alice in a room, and Alice was pleading with him. It fast forwards to us running and him calling after us; "I will get you one day, be warned." James. A shudder ran down my spine as he leered at me. Beside him the woman, who was clutching his hand, was growling at me. Who the hell is that? James began to circle me, looking me up and down. I flinched away from his gaze. He grinned as though he liked it. He thinks he is so intimidating. I wont let him know i'm scared although, my fear is so huge that i'm sure he can smell it.
"Told you I would get you. This is Victoria. I wish you were human, your blood smelled so good, but now your immortal, I can't. So we have developed a plan, we want Alice and you. We have you but we need Alice. What do you say?" He asked with false hope.
"Piss off!" I snarled talking a step towards him, baring my teeth. A smirk flitted across his face and he laughed. Beside him Victoria gave a breathy giggle that didn't suit her appearance.
"You have no choice in the matter. This is what we created. You have no hope at all, they are all our new born's. They will obey us in a heartbeat! Hmm maybe not a heartbeat but an instant." he gestured to all the restless vampires. "What do you say we phone… Edward is it?" Autumn nodded smiling evilly. "Tell him to meet us. He won't know what hits him. Shall we?" He whipped out his phone.
"No!" I cried out. Not Edward or anyone else. Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper's Alice and Edward's face burst into my thoughts. Please no! "Please don't hurt them, just take me!" I shouted to them desperately hoping my plea would be enough.
"Too late" He smirked and walked towards me holding out the phone. I saw he had dialled Alice's mobile. I shut my eyes as he put the phone to my ear listening to the dial tone. It rang out three times before Alice answered.
"Hello" Alice chirped down the phone. I said nothing. What will I say? I will not lure her here, I can't! I will do anything I can.
"Emmett see if that's you, I will kill you! You do this to me everyday and I know its always you so why do you bother?" she moaned. James's eyes flashed at me, and he nudged me. I swallowed and cleared my throat. My mind working frantically to say something, I began to stall for time.
"Alice, its Bella" I whispered half hoping she wouldn't be able to hear me but with vampire ears she could.
"Bella! Where have you been?!" she shouted the anger very evident in her voice. So she can't see me. She doesn't know and I sure as hell aren't going to tell her.
"Bella! Are you there? Why can't I see you? what are you doing that is gonna wipe your future blank. You better not be doing anything stupid. Listen" Her tone softened "If its about your fight with Autumn, I believe you. Something is going on with her and I'm going to find out!" she said determinedly.
"No, its not her. I-" I said but she cut me off.
"If its the fight with Edward, I already hit him. He is so ashamed about it, he swears he didn't know what he was doing. I believe him. I think its got something to do with Autumn. Everything was fine till she showed up. Listen babe, Edward wants you home. He misses you, all he does is mope around. He needs you. He is so miserable, beating himself up about the fight. I don't think he was in control of his actions. He told me everything, not missing out on anything. It doesn't sound like him. He told me his feelings for you Bella. He doesn't love Autumn, heck, he doesn't even love her. He was beating us at our game. Bella, he loves you so much, he always has. You can ask him when you come back. By the way, how are you and when are you coming back?" She asked and I could hear the smile in her voice. I felt a tug at my heart as i thought out my answer.
"Im-fine-I'm-not-coming-back-ever-leave-me-alone-dont-look-for-me" I shouted down the phone before she and James could say anything. I shook my head and the phone snapped shut. James drew back his hand and slapped me so hard I flew 50ft through the air. I screamed even though I know nothing was going to hurt me. I fell to the ground in a heap.
"You little bitch!" he yelled at me. The vampires began to growl. I jumped to my feet and was off. I heard a scream of anger behind me but I didn't hesitate as I ran through the forest, following my scent. I heard everyone running behind me and hands flew from every direction trying to catch me but I easily dodged them. Mud splattered all over me as my feet pounded the ground in an effort to escape. Where will I go? I'm not going home because then I will lead my family to their death as well as mines. I'm not that selfish, there are so many of them, we wouldn't survive. Realising i have no where to go, I sighed and stopped so abruptly that 10 figures flew past me and on hit me full on. James's hands clamped down on me as did a few others and dragged me back to the clearing. What is going to happen? The clearing came back into view and I was shoved to the ground. Tears that wouldn't fall, pricked my eyes. James sighed and shook his head in disapproval.
"Bella, Bella, Bella, you are so stupid." He grimaced his voice icy.
"Please, what are you going to do to me?" I asked my voice wobbling as everyone laughed. James grinned and hushed everyone before answering.
"I am selling you to the Volturi. Alice also." He smirked while I stared at him in horror. I heard about the Volturi but everything I heard was bad. Apparently, they look for reasons to destroy vampires. The are 'royalty' in the vampire world. "My good friend Chelsea can emotionally tie you to the Volturi so you will be bound by them and there will be nothing you can do about it."
I stared at him horror-struck unable to tell if he is lying or not. What does he want? Money?
"Please don't do this l will give you money, anything you want but please, not this. Not Alice, just me please. Don't take Alice." I sniffed terrified. I don't care about me, I do however care about Alice. I will never forgive myself if anything happens to her. Alice is falling in love, she deserves it. She doesn't deserve to be bound to the Volturi when she is finally being given a chance at being happy. James scoffed and began to laugh, clutching his sides, as did Victoria although her eyes flashed.
"Money! I don't need your fucking money! If we deliver you and Alice, we will be rewarded like no other vampires. We will be granted something that is forbidden. We will be allowed the privilege of an Immortal Child. Our own precious baby. Ours!" He cried out kissing Victoria who was smiling.
"This has always been my dream. To be a mother with the perfect husband." She cast James an admiring look. "When I was younger, my parents had another child. I was 8. She was born on the 28 January. I remember, feeling so alone and jealous throughout my mothers pregnancy. When asked to go to the hospital too see her I said yes because I knew doctors gave out lollypops. When I saw Hayley, such an overpowering emotion took hold of me. It froze all the jealousy, anger and sadness in me. I remember holding her on my own, on the hospital bed. She had soft peach skin, and pink lips. She had tuffs of blonde hair that was so soft to touch. When my mother took her out of my arms, they ached for her. I was always the one there when she cried. I begged and begged my mum to let me feed her and change her nappies. I once even bathed her. Caring for her was so instinctual that I wasn't scared. I loved her so much, I was always the one that could get her to stop crying, go to sleep and eat her dinner. The day I got turned into a vampire, I found out I was pregnant. I was so ecstatic. Being a mum was my dream. All the other girls wanted to be singers and date footballers but not me. I wanted to be a mum. When I found out I was pregnant, by a few weeks, I ran home to tell my mother. The dad wasn't interested, only used me for a good night in the back of his car. I wasn't sorry that my baby would have had to grow up without a father, if anything it was better. I didn't have to share the baby. I knew it was a girl, in my heart, I could feel it. I was going to name her Taylor. I had the vision of her, her little brown curls, big green eyes, soft skin and that beautiful baby smell. I remember taking a shortcut through the alley-ways. It was dark and raining but it couldn't damped my spirits. Guess being happy made me blind because I ran into him, and almost knocked my self out. All I could think about was the baby. I saw the gleam of teeth and I saw my reflection in a car window. My hair was plastered to me, the curls more pronounced but I saw my belly. Through my eyes it was huge, about 9 months. I then saw it fading, getting smaller and smaller until it was flat as a pancake. The baby was dying and I just watched. A sharp pain in my face brought me out of my daze. Suddenly I was on fire. It hurt so much, all I could think about was my baby. Was it going to survive this pain? Obviously it didn't because my body couldn't move to adapt to the pregnancy, it was frozen. When I came to, I was all alone in the middle of a field. Huge crops covered me. The first thing I did was check my stomach. I didn't have a bump before but I knew I wasn't pregnant. I found out what I was by a nomad. That was the moment I found out I couldn't even conceive a child. I asked him and he laughed in my face. Told me I could never the mother. I killed him right then and there. I was so angry I did everything to kill myself. As the time went on grief and bitterness took over and I did everything I could to get a child. Even resorting to stealing them but I always put them back out of fear of killing them." She broke off with a dry sob. James began to run soothing circles on her hand.
"I then met James, who felt a bit like me. He was lost and lonely. Together, we helped fill the gaping holes in our heart. But one remained. Years passed and one day, I was summoned by Aro. He got wind of my needs and we made a proposal. We would be allowed to have an Immortal Child if we would give them you and the other girl. I accepted at once. We would get a baby of our choice changed and we would have to go and live in the Amazon or other deserted places where the baby couldn't cause destruction. So here we are, we have one and we will get the other. I will NOT let a stupid girl ruin my dreams. I won't!" She screamed the last part causing me to jump.
"You will phone Alice and you will get sold to The Volturi. We will get our baby and I will be a mother." She snarled shoving a phone to her ear. I heard the dial tone then Alice came on the phone.
"Get away from your friends or else Bella gets it." She hissed looking at Autumn who nodded. I heard Alice gasp and the phone cut off.
"Autumn" Victoria said and Autumn nodded again.
"What the fuck did you do?!" I shouted at Autumn as I caught their exchanged looks. Autumn laughed and came to stand beside Victoria.
"I have a power. Invisibility and Manipulating. Edward can't hear thoughts, Jasper cant feel emotions and Alice cant see unless I let them. I can use my power to block theirs from everyone through choice. I let Alice see for a second so she saw that we weren't lying. She will be here soon. That's why Edward believed me. I showed him a different scenario in Alice's vision. I blocked Jasper's power so he couldn't feel my emotions and Alice, because this plan wouldn't have succeeded if she saw." She grinned her eyes gleaming. Night had now fallen.
"We have waited so long for this night. It was supposed to have happened ages ago but Ross and Peter got carried away. I will kill the bastard who killed them. I liked them, they were useful." Autumn pondered mostly to herself. There was the sound of footsteps running closer and Alice burst into the clearing She came to a halt, her mouth falling open at the vampires who were watching her with interest. Three newborns pounced and speared Alice to the ground. She shrieked and clawed at them but it was no use.
"Get off me! Bella!" she cried out. I'm sorry I mouthed at her. She mouthed back 'Its not your fault' She was dragged beside me and threw down beside me. She crawled over to me. Alice nudged me and I turned around to look at her. 'Help's coming' she mouthed. I sat frozen to the floor. They're coming. No! They have us, they cant come! Its over. We have been captured. They can't come. They can't die for us!
An hour had passed, and still nothing had happened. I don't understand why we are still waiting here. To pass the time I sang a song inside my head.
I think we have an emergency
I think we have an emergency
If you thought I'd leave, then you were wrong
Cause I won't stop holding on
So are you listening?
So are you watching me?
If you thought I'd leave, then you were wrong
Cause I won't stop holding on.
This is an emergency
So are you listening?
And I can't pretend that I don't see this
it's really not your fault
When no one cares to talk about it
[To talk about it]
Cause I've seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be alive (deserved to be alive)
I've seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserved to be alive (alive)
So you give up every chance you get
Just to feel new again
I think we have an emergency
I think we have an emergency
And you do your best to show me love,
but you don't know what love is.
So are you listening?
So are you watching me?
Well I can't pretend that I don't see this
But it's really not your fault
When no one cares to talk about it
[to talk about it?]
Cause I've seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be alive (deserved to be alive)
I've seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserved to be alive (alive)
Scars, they will not fade away.
No one cares to talk about it, can we talk about it?
Cause I've seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be alive (deserved to be alive)
I've seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserved to be alive (alive)
For a long time, Alice hadn't said anything. But then her voice pricked on the edges of the stars stung up in the midnight sky.
"They're here. Listen." she whispered. Sure enough they were. Alice jumped up suddenly as Edward, Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper, Carlisle, Edward and another 4 vampires burst into the clearing.
"Well, well. If it isn't the Cullen's and the Denali's." James sneered. There was a sudden gasp as a newborn jumped on Alice. Alice screamed and there was a metallic screech and Alice's scream came to a stop…
