Chapter 21.

A few weeks had past since Charlie had filed. My nose had finally healed and the cast was taken off my arm...finally. Alice was so excited about this that she planed a huge shopping trip. She couldn't wait to get me normal clothing that my cast couldn't fit into. She seemed like a bundle of nerves in the days leading up to it.

" We'll stop at Gucci and we'll stop at Prada and maybe macy's!" Alice said while bouncing up in down leaving the doctors office.

" Alice, calm down!" I said excitedly .

" I cant, I've been waiting for this day ever since the plane accident!" Alice said cheerfully. Though she had taken to drawing all over my cast, she felt that it would go with nothing that I wore. It made picking out outfits harder for her, something I thought impossible until now.

We got home as fast as we could. We grabbed our tazer guns and bottles of mace. We felt that especially with Mike on the loose, it couldn't help to be protected. You never know what's out there. As we were running back down the hall way we ran into Jasper.

" Alice, Bella where are you going?" he said curiously

" Shopping...wanna come?" Alice asked excitedly.

" Actually I need to take your car for an inspection today Alice...remember that?" Alice's face deflated as he said this.

" But I can give you a ride there and back!" Alice's face brightened like a child on Christmas day when she heard this.

" Oh, that's wonderful!" Alice said

" so which mall?" Jasper asked.

" Do you even have to ask that question!" Alice exclaimed. Well at least there's some banks near there, since im not Alice, and I don't have multiple credit cards, I needed to make a withdrawal.

" Bella, why do you need money?, you know that what ever it is...ill buy it for you!" Alice said on the way there.

" I don't want to put you out that much, god knows we cant control your spending anyhow!" Jasper laughed at this.

" My spending is not out of control!" Alice said defiantly.

" Um do you remember the shopping with Alice segment?" Jasper asked bewildered.

" Well im not as bad as they make me out to be!" Alice said

" For every formal event, you bought all the dresses and the tuxes!" Jasper countered

" so!" Alice said.

" You also bought the perfume and the cologne!"

" You don't know that!" Alice said.

" Alice, honey, I was there every time!" Jasper said tiredly

With that the couples argument ended. I was making a mental list of what I needed while Alice was ranting about which stores we needed to go to. I had to say that she had so much positive energy about this that I wasn't dreading this shopping trip! I mean im usually the scrooge of shopping!

" So how about I drop Bella off at the bank, and ill drop you off at the first store that you want to go into?" Jasper asked as we were getting closer.

" Yeah, that's good!" Alice and I said together. I turned to Alice.

" Meet me at the bank after you finish at the store?" I said

" Okay!" Alice said joyfully. I had a bad feeling about that.

" We'll call you when we're ready Jazz, is that okay?" Alice asked.

" Yeah that's great!" Jasper said.

" Oh, I so cant wait for this!" Alice said.

" I know, I like recked half my shirts with that damn cast!" I exclaimed.

" oh I know!" Alice said

" im so glad its off now, do you know how much that thing weighed!" I exclaimed.

We then pulled up to the bank.

When I got out of the car, I had this innate feeling that someone was following me, but when I turned around no one was there. The feeling persisted though and I tried to ignore it. When I got into the bank there was a huge line of people. Wonderful I was going to be here a while. They had no ATM's available...they were all broken. I headed into the shortest of the three lines. That line was still pretty long though. I resigned myself to playing games on my cellphone when someone came up behind me. I turned around to see...MIKE NEWTON? WHAT THE FUCK? Though he had a panty-hoe on his head, it was still clear enough to know that it was him. It looked wicked retarded. Behind him was Evian, she was looking just as ridiculous. Mike looked startled. It was like he didn't expect me to turn around or something. The both of them then took out pistols.

" THIS IS A HOLD UP...EVERYONE ON THE GROUND NOW!" Mike and Evian roared together. Just wonderful huh! Mike then forced his way to the tellers.

" Put all the money in the bag NOW!" he emphasized the last word. One of the desk people reached behind the desk.

" YOU IDIOT... YOU JUST CREATED A HOSTAGE SITUATION!" One of the employees shouted at her! Lovely... it looks like im going to be here a while!

" YOUR SUPPOSED TO PULL THE ALARM AFTER THE ROBBERS LEFT" They continued to roar. I felt bad for her, this was probably her first robbery. There was a commotion and the Mike fired a shot.

" EVERYBODY SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP!" Mike roared. It immediately became quiet. He then refined what ever plan he had and headed over to Evian. She nodded her head as he whispered the new plan. A huge smile grew on her face.

" That's brilliant !" Evian exclaimed. I had a bad feeling that what ever it was... it had to do with me.

" EVERYONE, TURN YOUR PHONE OVER TO US, IF WE GET ONE WORD THAT YOU'VE MADE CONTACT WITH THE OUTSIDE WE WONT HESITATE!" They sounded dead serious when they said this. Everyone started to throw their phones into the middle of the room. We started to hear the distant sound of sirens. Evian headed over to lock the door. This was gonna be a while. Well at least if they try anything, I have my tazer gun and mace! They then went back to filling up the bags with money.

" This is the police , we have you surrounded, come out with your hands up!" The police said.

" NEVER!" Mike roared back. Okay there is something really wrong with this kid.

" We will never come out!" Evian agreed. Great mother huh!

APV

Jasper dropped me off at Gucci after making me promise that I wouldn't go bankrupt in the store. When I entered the aroma of Gucci hit me like a ton of bricks. I had to have everything in the store, or at least one thing. I scouted the new bags that they had just gotten in for spring. It was heaven, all the blues, pinks, purples, and yellows. I felt like I died and went to heaven. I wondered if maybe I did die in my sleep last night and this was heaven! Well if this was heaven I was going to love it here. Reality hit hard when I noticed the price tags though. In heaven this would all be mine, there would be no price tags!

" excuse me miss...may I help you?" the store employee asked.

" Yes, I was wondering if you had this purse in green?" I asked.

" Yes, on that back wall to the left!" oh this was so my day! I sprinted to the back wall and found it immediately. I picked up a purse for Bella as well, it looked so her, it was even her color hair! I then headed over to the shoes. I found a pair of stilettos that I absolutely loved. I picked them up in three different colors! I didn't have any luck with any other accessories though which really bummed me out. I wandered the store for what felt like hours. I was having so much fun, I didn't want to leave. My phone started to ring. It was Jasper.

" Hey, what's up?" I asked.

" Just calling to let you know that your car passed inspection and im heading back home now!" Jasper said.

" Okay"

" You done at Gucci yet?" He asked.

" Pretty close, I haven't bought anything yet though"

" Find anything you like!"

" Two purses and three pairs of shoes" I exclaimed.

" What am I going to do with you Alice?" Jasper joked.

" But that's why you love me!" I said.

" True, I love you for you!" Jasper said

" Bye Jasper!" I said

" Bye!" Jasper said, then I hung up.

After I hung up with Jasper I proceeded to pay for my stuff. I spent about $1,500 dollars in all. I felt that I was doing pretty good for being by my self! As I headed out of the store I noticed that the police were flying by in droves. I had a bad feeling about this so I followed them. They were taking turns that were so familiar to me, but I didn't know why. It was when I got to their destination that I realized why everything looked so familiar though there were no stores in the area. We were out side the bank that Bella was dropped off at. They were putting up barricades in the streets. I started to scan the crowds for her. Surely if there was a bank robbery they would be interviewing witnesses outside. It was then that my phone rang again. It was Bella's phone. I picked up relieved.

" Hi" I started.

" EVERYBODY STAY ON THE GROUND! ( sound of gun blast)" A voice that was clearly Mikes said.

" Do what we say, and no one gets hurt!" Evian shouted. Those suns a bitches! If they hurt her, ill fucking kill them! It was then that it hit me what was happening, she was in a hostage situation.

" What's that noise!" Mike said.

" SHIT THIS PHONES ON!" Evian screamed.

" Hang it up" Mike roared. Then I heard a click. I then made my way over to a police officer.

" Excuse me mister, my friend's in there, what's going on?" I asked.

" A few minutes ago we got an alarm signal coming from here, when we got here, the woman robber locked the door. We told them to surrender and they said they wouldn't." That so sounded like Mike and Evian

" Is anyone hurt?" I asked.

" From what we can see, no one's hurt" oh thank god for small miracles. It was then that I saw the news helicopters flying by. Damn this was going to be on the news. I look horrible! The first news channels started to drive in soon after wards. Reporters were flocking to the scene in droves. I was one of the first people they interviewed.

" Ms.? Ms.? Could you tell us what's going on here?" The reporters asked.

" There's a hostage situation going on here! My friends inside!" I shrieked. Mike Newton and Evian were surely going to die!

It was then that my phone rang.

I was studying for a test that I had in anatomy when Emmett came bounding in. He went into the kitchen and made a massive amount of Chicken wings for lunch.

" Emmett, that's a lot of food!" I exclaimed.

" I gotta keep up my manly physic!" Emmett exclaimed. At this point Jasper came into the room as well.

" Hey, just so you know, I dropped Alice and Bella off shopping and since Rose is in class , we probably have an hour to kill!" Jasper exclaimed. Emmett then ran for the television, whipping out grand theft auto on the way!

" First to get to the controller wins!" Emmett exclaimed as he turned the PS2 on.

" Your on!" we shouted as we lunged for the nearest controllers. Emmett beat us though and began to play. He really got into it. If Emmett could, I thought that he would live in the game. Emmett was really good at playing it. He completed missions the fastest out of any of us, one time getting through it about a second after he started.

" What about keeping up your manly physic!" I teased as he continued to play.

" im doing it mentally right now!" Emmett exclaimed.

" Emmett, oh never mind!" Jasper said playfully. We sat back and laughed at this. Emmett had a confused look on his face.

" No what?" Emmett asked curiously.

" Never mind!" Jasper said.

We continued to take turns for the rest of the hour. Emmett always acted board when Jasper and I were playing, but he got so riveted when he was playing. He would actually start to rant and rave at the screen when something he didn't like happened, like the car he tried to steal got away. It was actually quite funny.

" Just wait, ill eventually get you!" Emmett roared as the character chased a car he tried to steal.

" Just add im Emmett Cullen! And you'll sound exactly like Mike Newton!" Jasper chocked, he was laughing so hard that he had tears coming out of his eyes. It was then that Rosalie entered the room.

" Hey guys, enough game time, I have to watch the news for homework" Rose said while turning the play station off. Emmett was bummed out, but he sat on the couch and watched tv with Rose.

We sat there watching them report that some new law about child abductions being passed. Rosalie was jotting notes down about this. That was what she would need to prove that she actually did the assignment.

" We interrupt this program for a breaking news bulletin" the news caster said as they flashed helicopter pictures of this random bank with a huge crowd around it.

" There is a hostage situation going on right now at the Bank of Mass at Nathaniel hall!" Rosalie looked pissed that they interrupted her program for this. Jasper looked confused.

" Why do I know that bank?" Jasper asked out loud.

" You were probably in it at some point!" Emmett said.

" No that's not it, I don't think" Jasper said.

" Police said that the robbers stormed the place just after 5 at night!" The news casters said.

" Just listen to what this poor woman had to say!" the other one said. A video of Alice started to play. What the hell was Alice doing there?

" What the hell?" Jasper shrieked.

" Why is Alice there?" Rosalie asked

" Ms.? Ms.? Could you tell us what's going on here?" The reporters asked.

" There's a hostage situation going on here! My friends inside!" Alice said. Jasper had a look of horror on his face. This could of only meant one thing. Bella was inside that bank. I felt sick.

" Could you tell us anything else?" they asked.

" Her phone called me, it sounded pretty bad in there" Alice said distroughtly.

" That's the bank I dropped Bella off at!" Jasper exclaimed! Who ever it was and, I had a bad feeling that I knew who ,was going to die for this! If it was who I thought it was, I was going to murder him when I got the chance.

" BELLA'S IN THERE!" Rosalie screamed horrified.

I then did the first thing that came into my mind. I called Alice.

" Alice what the hell is going on!" I asked.

"MIKE AND EVIAN ARE HOLDING PEOPLE HOSTAGE INSIDE THE BANK BELLA'S IN" Alice cried.

" Those fucking scum bags, I hope they both die!" I exclaimed. I knew it that fucking scum bag had something to do with it.

" Alice are you sure?" I asked.

" Positive, her phone called mine, I heard both their voices, they hung up with me!" Alice sobbed

" please come!" Alice continued to sob.

" you didn't even have to ask, we're on our way , we're leaving right now!" I said as I grabbed my coat. Everyone else followed in my lead.

"Why didn't you call?" I asked.

" I just found out and with the interview!" Alice said.

" I understand" I said. I then hung up the phone. I then told everyone else.

" That fucking scum, I knew one paint ball shot to the balls wasn't enough!" Emmett exclaimed.

" That's sick, holding people hostage just to get some!" Rose shouted.

" I guess that means we're taking the Jeep!" Emmett said as I tossed his keys at him.

" Why?" Rosalie asked

" Just incase..." I started to say.

" WE NEED THE GUNS!" Emmett shouted with joy. Only Emmett would be happy about that.

Emmett was chattering excitedly all the way to the car. He really did love his Jeep. He ran like a little kid to the drivers seat. This was going to be a fun ride.

" Bet your glad I kept my guns in here now Rosie!" Emmett exclaimed.

" No I still think that was one of the most stupidest things you ever did, and you know not to call me that!" Rose said. She really hated it when Emmett called her Rosie.

Emmett then launched the car into action.

Emmett then launched the car into action.

When we got there Alice was about to have a nervous break down. She ran at us like a thirsty person seeing water for the first time in like three days. She was sobbing the whole time.

" They haven't made any demands yet, in fact they haven't spoken to anyone since they entered and we keep on hearing gun shots!" Alice said shaken.

" Those fucking bastards!" Emmett exclaimed. I beamed at Emmett.

" Ugh, this is the worst, there's nothing we can do!' Rosalie exclaimed. As she said this, I looked around. The scene was like out of an action movie or something. If Bella wasn't in there I would of swore that it was.

" What the hell man!" Jasper said.

"Im gonna go clean my guns!" Emmett said sprinting to the car.

" Im so sorry Edward, but what are the chances that they entered the same bank she did?" Alice sobbed.

" Honestly Alice, no one thought that they would do this, its not your fault.

" I should of stayed with her though!" Alice said.

" Alice, honey, you tried, shit happens!" Jasper said.

" Yeah look at the plane accident, you cant stop that from happening, what are you going to do, force her into a bubble or something" I said more for the both of us.

" I just hope she's okay in there" Rose said.

" Knowing Mike, she would be the only one that he doesn't injure!" Jasper said.

" She's gonna be okay!" I said

" She has to be!" Everyone else said.

It was then that we noticed Evian heading towards the door. She began to unlock it. She whipped the pistol in the air and shouted that they were leaving with a hostage and that if anyone tried to stop them she'd die. Great, I just hoped that it wasn't Bella!

My hope was deflated when I saw who it was.

They dragged me into this shitty suburban. It was obviously Mike's car. There was papers scattered every where along with some porno magizines. They shoved me into the back seat. He shouted a little and I got the smell of rust and salt that always accompanies a cut. I started to sweat and got nauseated. Before I knew it, I slipped into Blackness.

They dragged Bella out with Evian holding a gun to her head. They threw her into the shittiest suburban that I had ever seen in my life. I was surprised that the thing was still functioning. Alice burst out in tears, I wanted to kill him. Rosalie and Jasper both had similar masks of horror on their faces. What the fuck man, why my girlfriend? It was then that a miracle happened. As the last cop car was leaving for the chase, Emmett's Jeep came flying through the crowds. It came to a stop right next to us.

" Is it over?" Emmett asked as news vans were leaving to follow the chase.

" No, the assholes took my girlfriend...AGAIN!" I emphasized the last word. Emmetts face contorted in rage.

" Get in!" he growled. When we got in, Emmetts Jeep flew out of the parking lot and started to follow the cops. Mike's chase must of spanned over two hours. It was one of the worst two hours in my life. If I thought that Emmett drove erratically, that was nothing compared to Mike. There seemed to be no such thing as lines for Mike. He would weave in and out of traffic like a mad man. There was so many near misses that I was really freaking out.

" OH SHIT! HE JUST ALMOST HIT THE MAC TRUCK! DID YOU SEE THAT!" Emmett roared as mike narrowly missed a mac truck. I was shaking at this point. Alice let out a muffled shriek and Rose hit Emmett.

" IF THAT WERE ME IN THERE WOULD YOU SAY THAT, DON'T YOU HAVE ANY CONSIDERATION FOR YOUR BROTHER AND ALICE!" Rose screamed as she continued to punch Emmett

" OW ROSE, IM SORRY!" Emmett shrieked. Mike then went into the other lane again. He narrowly missed hitting two S. . Emmetts jaw dropped.

" Even I wasn't that bad the last time!" Emmett said in an amazed like state.

Mike then pulled a half donut. He wound up behind the police, in our lane, in the opposite direction of traffic!
