A small tear trickled down Bella's face, as she felt the searing pain flow through her bloodstream. The leader stopped, and stood up. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve. Bella heard one of the others walk towards her. Then she realized, she had just became a snack. An open buffet for these vampires. he one who had her hair, let go and also came closer. They each took a wrist and began to feed. She hadn't the energy to scream.
Back at home, Edward was beginning to come out of his trance. He blinked a few times before speaking,
"Alice?'
"Yes, Edward. I'm here."
"Where is everybody?"
"They, uh, went to Morgan's."
"Morgan's?"
"Obviously, he doesn't remember"
Alice thought to herself.
"Yeah,"
"But Morgan's has been closed for-"
he stopped. Without a word, Edward ran out of the house, to Morgan's... and Bella.
When Edward finally caught up with Jasper and Carlisle, they had already reached Morgan's.
"Edward!"
Jasper exclaimed. Edward didn't take time for greetings and exclamations. He ran to the door, and burst through.
"My god. Bella."
Bella laid there, barely being able to move, but she managed to move her head a little, to see Edward standing in the doorway. She tried to speak, but she merely looked at him. He had a look of shock and fear on his face. For a moment, the whole world seemed to drift away. Bella was losing. She turned her head away, staring at the ceiling, her eyes rolling back into her head.
"Bella!"
Edward gasped, charging into the room. He was stopped by the leader, who stood between Edward and Bella. Edward snarled at him, and his eyes immediately changed color. He threw the vampire aside like he was paper. He charged at the two vampires feeding on his beloved. They stopped, and stood up. They stood in front of Edward, like roadblocks. He snarled at them in the same way. He bared his teeth like a dog and snarled. They must have been scared, since they ran away like rabbits. Edward slipped out of his anger easily, and his eyes turned back to topaz, as he knelt at Bella's side and bean to sob.
