BPOV

January 8, 2009

James burst into the cottage, looking like a crazed animal. "There you are, Isabella. I am so done with all of this bullshit. Mike never loved me. If he loved me…he would not have stayed with you. He would not have let this drag out as long as it did. A part of him loved you and he would never admit that to me. Now, you are going to pay for taking him from me. I am going to take what I always wanted to try." His voice was cold, detached, and evil.

I was scared for our lives. My baby and I were in danger. Where are you Edward?

"Do you have anything to say? Any last words before we get started beautiful Bella?"

"Please…"

"Please what? Please fuck the hell out of you? Oh, I've got that covered honey." He told me with a smirk.

I was on the floor and my leg was killing me. He dropped to his knees in front of me. I tried to move away from him. "Ah, ah, ah. You're not going anywhere, bitch. We are going to have some fun."

He pushed me down the floor. My survival instincts kicked in and I started kicking and screaming at him as much as I could. He was so much…stronger than me. I knew I was losing blood from the wound in my leg. It was making me weak and nauseas.

"Please…do not do this James. I will tell them that…you are innocent…it was all Mike's idea…anything that you want. Please, just don't hurt my baby and me."

"Sorry, it is a little too late for that. Shut the fuck up and let me have my fun or I will gut you right now! If you are a good girl…and shut that sexy little mouth of yours…I will only fuck you. Otherwise, I am going to kill you when I am finished with you. Now be quiet so I can enjoy this!"

My eyes opened and I sat up from the bed that I was lying in and I was gasping for air. "NO! NO! Don't touch me," I screamed.

I felt arms wrap around me and I pushed them away with a strength I never knew that I had. I then looked down on the floor and realized who I had just pushed away from me.

Oh no! It was Edward. I pushed him away…down to the floor no less…I hurt him!

I looked down at him and he had the biggest grin on his face, even though I had just roughly pushed him to the floor.

His leg was in a cast. He awkwardly pulled himself from the floor and started peppering my face with kisses. "Oh my god! Bella! I thought I had lost you! I did not think you were ever going to wake up! Baby, I missed you so much!"

He looked like he had not shaved in a long time. The last time I saw him was the day of the accident. He was clean-shaven that day. That was only a week ago. Wait…there was no way this much hair would have grown on his face in a week.

I felt my stomach. I had more of a bump than I remembered. "Edward…I'm sorry that I pushed you to the floor."

"It is okay, love. I don't care about that. I am going to get my father…and the nurse."

He pushed the nurse's button. "Yes?"

"Could you please get my father? She's awake! Bella is awake!"

"Edward…I am confused. How long have I been unconscious?"

"Oh love…you've been asleep for almost a month!"

"A MONTH!"

"What…what happened?"

Edward explained everything that happened with James and Mike. He filled me in on what I was unconscious for and I told him everything that happened before he had arrived.

He climbed into the small hospital bed with me. The nurses frowned at this but Carlisle told them to get over it.

For the longest time, we just held each other and quietly stared into one another's eyes. This was the first time we were together face to face, knowing that his child was growing inside of me.

I was about fifteen weeks pregnant now…almost four months. Edward said at about eighteen weeks we should be able to find out the sex of the baby. We both definitely wanted to know.

"I can't believe I missed Christmas AND New Year's!"

"It's alright, love. None of us could celebrate with you in here. Mom said we would make them up after you were awake. Besides, Dad said your body needed to rest in order to heal. But I won't lie. I was so terrified that you would never wake up.

I felt so helpless. You were just lying here and there was nothing that I could do. The thought that I would never see your gorgeous brown eyes again killed me. My father kept telling me that our baby was fine and you were alright. It did not lessen my fear."

"I'm sorry that I put you through that Edward."

"Bella, do not apologize for that! It was not your fault! It was the fault of those monsters that took you from me."

"I feel so bad that Dr. Volturi died. But I am glad Mike is going away for contributing to his murder…among other things."

Edward had explained to me that between all of the evidence against Mike and our domestic issues, Seth and my father were able to get my divorce granted very quickly while I was sleeping. I was thrilled to be a divorced woman.

"Eddie, when are you going to make an honest woman out of me? I am having your baby you know," I said with a smirk.

He started tickling me. "Yes…you are having my baby…future Mrs. Cullen."

"I don't want anything big Edward. I just want to marry you…period. We could go to Vegas as soon as I am released."

"Baby, Alice would kill us and you know it."

"I don't care Edward. I want to be your wife…yesterday!"

"Yes, ma'am. I will see what I can do."

He informed me that no one had been able to locate Tanya or Kate. I told him I was not worried about them. We were finally together…soon to be married…and going to have an amazing baby. Those two bitches could drop dead for all I cared.

Edward went to cafeteria to tell our family that I was awake and bring them back up here. They had all gone down to try and eat. Well…everyone except…Edward and Carlisle. Edward stayed because he is Edward and Carlisle stayed because he was my doctor. They had to force Charlie to go but I was glad that he went.

I told Edward I was going to close my eyes and try to take a nap while he was gone. Everyone would be excited to see me and I wanted to rest while I could. I would have preferred if Carlisle had gone to get them. Then Edward would not have to leave me at all…but unfortunately…Carlisle did have other patients to see. Apparently, the only way the hospital would allow Carlisle to be my doctor was if he took a few other cases as well.

My eyes closed and I allowed my thoughts to drift. Unfortunately, my nap was cut short by a pillow being shoved over my face.

What the hell was going on now?

Rose POV

January 8, 2009

It had been stressful since Bella had been unconscious. We were all worried about her but no one wanted to admit it. She had been asleep for almost a month. Carlisle said she was not in a coma…her body was just resting and healing.

I prayed that he was right. We all needed her. If something happened to her and the baby, Edward would not survive. He loved that woman more than anything.

Emmett and I had just found out that I was pregnant. I was barely five weeks and we did not want to tell anyone yet due to everything that was happening.

As soon as we got to the cafeteria, the smell made me sick. I had to get out of there. I told Emmett that I was going to go to the bathroom and empty my stomach and then head back to the room with Edward.

He nodded in understanding and asked if I wanted him to come with me. I told him it was not necessary and that he should go enjoy his lunch. My monkey man loved to eat.

After I was finished in the bathroom, I headed to Bella's room. When I walked in…I could not believe what I saw. Tanya was fucking standing over Bella, trying to smother her with a pillow!

It was time for this bitch to hurt!

Tanya did not hear me enter the room. I looked around the room and I did not see anything I could use as a weapon. All I saw was a clean metal bedpan beneath the sink and the recliner in the corner that we had all taken turns camping out in for the last two weeks. Could either of those be used as weapons?

I had two choices. I could leave and try to get help. Unfortunately, from the looks of the hallway everyone was in working on the cardiac arrest down the hall on the other end. If I left, I would risk losing my sister to this deranged woman. My second choice was…to take out this bitch myself.

Tanya was not stopping her actions. I could see Bella flailing about in the bed, trying to push the psycho off her. Choice number two it was.

Mama Bear roared inside of me. Tanya would not stop at Bella, that's for damn sure. Edward would be next. I knew that. Just like I knew I could give her sorry ass the beating she deserved.

I quickly grabbed the bedpan and charged at Tanya. I brought the metal down on the back of her head. Tanya's grip lessened and the pillow dropped from Bella's face. Tanya spun on her heels as I heard Bella gasping for air.

"Bitch, you are going to die with her now!" Tanya charged at me, tackling me to the ground. I twisted away from her landing on my side as she clawed at my eyes. I was throwing punches left and right, trying to hit her anywhere on her bony frame. I had a fleeting thought of popping an implant but even my fucking nails could not do that.

"Oh fuck no, BITCH!" I reached behind her, grabbing a fistful of hair and pulled hard. Tanya howled in pain as clumps of bloody bleached strands fell free from her scalp. With my right hand, I dug the knuckle of my index finger into the corner of her left eye socket. I heard a satisfying pop and saw Tanya's eye bulge horrifically from her face.

Tanya reared back giving me the chance to scramble out from under her. I grabbed her by the hair, fully intending to drag her out into the hall Italian style when she grabbed my arm and pulled, hard. My arm wretched back, as my grip loosened and my shoulder popped free of its socket.

I turned, gritting my teeth refusing to cry out in pain. Tanya pulled a .45 from the waistband of her jeans.

"This was supposed to be quiet and clean. But you won't let me have that," Tanya spat. I slowly circled around, putting myself between Bella and the lunatic with the gun. Tanya followed me. The sun's rays filtered through the window behind Tanya. She looked like a fiery demoness ready to attack.

I took a quick inventory of myself. My shoulder was dislocated and my face was beginning to swell. But Tanya had stayed relatively clear of my stomach during her attack. It helped that I had kept one leg curled up and wedged between us in an effort to protect myself.

But really….

What the fuck am I doing?

Protecting the woman and child that your brother loves.

But what about my child?

My baby.

I can't lose my baby.

Emmett, what will he do if Tanya succeeds?

Yeah, well you're the only one here. Bells can't fucking do anything right now. Focus Blondie, focus.

"What is going on in…" Right at that moment, a nurse rounded the corner into the room. She had a cup of coffee in one hand and her stethoscope in the other one. Tanya turned on the nurse and fired two rounds in her direction.

The coffee splattered to the floor with a splash and a hollow thump.

I saw my chance and I took it.

Tanya only had one good eye so her aim was off because of that. But it did not matter. The nurse was close enough to take a direct hit to the chest.

Tanya was distracted as I lunged forward, and wrapped my good arm around her waist. I propelled her backwards with all the strength I had. Tanya went flying.

The gun dropped from her hand and crashed to the floor, firing once. Tanya fell through the glass window three feet behind her, and dropped four stories to the car park below us. I heard a car alarm sound outside and hoped this meant the bitch was finally dead. I could hear the voices of Emmett and our family. It sounded like they were pushing their way through doctors and nurses tending to their fallen comrade in the hallway.

"ROSIE?!" Emmett boomed as he entered the room.

I felt light headed and my shoulder was killing me. Pain was radiating out all over my body.

"ROSIE!" Emmett lunged for me as my legs fell out from beneath me. My big lug of a husband cradled me against his chest and I felt pressure against my right hip.

"Emmett?" I saw his hand raise as he sobbed, covered in blood.

I peered down and noticed the neat hole in my right hip where the bullet from the final gunshot hit me.

"Baby, stay with me. Stay with me Rosie. DAD! Get in here, fucking NOW! DAD!"

That's when the blackness took me.

A/N…Ding dong the witch is dead! Piratehannelore sure can write a fight scene can't she? If you like what she did to Tanya, leave us some love! Also, if you review, I will send you a teaser for the next chapter.
