A/N: I need to let you guys know a few things before I write this chapter. The first being, Bella tells the others that it was Kyle she saw in the dream. However, none of them can be positive that it was him. Bella won't be able to remember enough about the man in the dream to give an accurate description. Also, Roxanne knows that Kyle has many powers but she doesn't know how he gets them. With that being said, I hope you guys don't get too lost in this chapter.

ROXANNE

I listened to Bella tell us what happened in her dream. I wasn't sure if it was something we should be worried about or not. I knew my story had probably just made her paranoid. All the same there were a few things that didn't quite add up.

The first being that she said he sent an electric shock through her body by simply touching her. That was something he had done to me quite often especially when he was raping me. He used to say the way I tightened up when he did it felt so good. I wanted to throw up just thinking about it. Still, I hadn't gone into that much detail about my captivity with any of the Cullens or Bella yet. How could Bella's subconcious have known?

Then the was also the fact that she could only remember that the man in her dream said he was Kyle. She couldn't remember what he looked like or anything. I knew he could enter someone's mind when they were in a subconcious state and manipulate their dreams. He could torture you in your sleep then make you forget certain parts or make other part stand out more.

Bella said that Kyle had told her that he was coming for her and she wouldn't be able to escape him. He had said that we wouldn't even beable to protect her. I didn't know what I should do. I wanted to comfort Bella and let her know nothing would happen to her but if Kyle was after her then he'd get her. He didn't stop until he got what he wanted.

Hell, I couldn't even be sure if he was after her. Maybe, it was Bella just being human and worrying about nothing.

I guess the question was: Should I alert the others that this could potentially be a serious thing or not? As of right now, because nobody knew what I knew, none of them believed there was really a threat. They just thought it was a dream. They had no idea that it could've really been a threat. I knew but I didn't want to alert anybody until I knew whether or not it was a serious thing. None of them needed that kind of stress right now. Especially Bella.

She just lost her boyfriend. I wasn't about to tell her that she could have another sadistic vampire coming after her. At least, not until I was positive he was after her.

"It's okay, Bella." I said. "Nobody's going to hurt you. It was just a dream.

I stroked her hair while she cried in Alice's arms.

"But you don't understand. It felt so real." she sobbed.

"It was probably just all the food, sweetie. And your emotions are already all over the place." I tried to comfort her.

"Maybe, we should call the boys home?" Rosalie suggested. "Just to be on the safe side."

"I like that idea." Esme replied. "I know it's probably not anything to worry about but it wouldn't hurt to be prepared for anything."

Alice passed Bella to Rosalie's arms and pulled out her cell. She dialed fast but I caught every number she punched in. I heard the ringback about four times before Jasper's voicemail picked up.

"Hey Jazz, it's Al. Listen, when you guys get this, can you get back here A.S.A.P. Don't worry nobody's hurt or in danger. We'll explaine when you get here. I love you. Bye." she said before snapping the phone shut.

Eventually, Bella calmed down and fell back to sleep in Rose's arms. We halted the Kyle talk while she was awake. We didn't want to worry her about a potnetial threat we were even sure was a potential threat just yet. The others didn't seem too worried about it. They just wanted to take precautions. I wasn't against that but I wasn't going to make them think it was a serious thing until I was positive that it was.

"I think we should talk with the pack and ask them to keep a nose out for strangers." Alice stated.

"Of course." Esme replied. "But are you sure that's something Bella would be okay with. I mean, Jake did just break her heart."

"Maybe not but they would want to know." Rose stated. "They care about her as much as we do. And the imprint doesn't change the fact that Jacob loves Bella. That's something that'll probably never change. Her safety and happiness are just as important to him as the other girls."

"And how do you know so much about his emotions, Rose?" I asked.

I was curious because she was the only one who had a hard time getting along with the pack. The few weeks I spent observing their interactions, I notcied she always hung out by herself whenever Bella was with both families. She never seemed like she wanted to intermingle much.

"You notice a lot when you're just observing. You should know that Roxy." she stated. "I could see the look in his eyes whenever he was around her. It was the same look Edward had before we left. The look of pure love and adoration. I knew it would've taken something strong to rip them apart."

"We're getting off the subject." Esme stated. "Do we tell the pack or not?"

"I think we should wait for the boys to decide anything." I stated. "Carlisle may have better insight than the rest of us."

"She's right." Alice stated. "They be here in about a half hour."

Alice grabbed her phone out of her pocket and flipped it open before it had a chance to even ring.

"Hey Jasper." she said.

"What's going on?" Jasper asked.

"We'll explain when you get here." Alice answered. "Don't worry nothing's happened."

"Okay, we'll be there in..."

"A half hour." Alice cut him off.

He laughed and they hang up.

EDWARD

When we arrived at the house. I heard four sets of confused thoughts. Nobody seemed to know whether or not they should worry. I ran in the house with my brothers and Carlisle next to me. We found Roxy, Rose, Alice, and Esme waiting in the dining room. Bella was know where to be seen. This worried me until a heard the rythmic breathing coming from her room.

Jasper went to Alice side and sat next to her. Carlisle stood behind Esme where she was sitting at the head table. Emmett went to Rosalie who was pacing between the dining room and the kitchen and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Relax, babe." he whispered. "I'm sure everything will be fine."

I looked over at Roxanne who was sitting across from Alice. She had her hands folded on the table and was twindling her thumbs. She was concentrating hard on the table. I focused on her thoughts and found that she was fighting with herself about telling us something. I sighed pulled out the chair next to her and sat down. I reached over and took one of her hands and gave her a smile when she looked up. I'd talk to her later about her thoughts but, from the looks of things, we had other serious matters to discuss.

"What's going on?" I asked.

Alice explained that Bella had a dream about Kyle. In the dream, Kyle told her that she couldn't get away from him and we couldn't protect. Then he sent an electric shock through her body and then she woke up. She said that Bella could only remember what the man said and did but not what he looked like.

"She said it felt so real. It tooks us nearly a half hour to calm her down." Alice finished.

"Yeah and we're nopt sure if we should take it seriously or just pass it off as Bella's subconcious being paranoid." Rosalie added. "So we don't know how to handle this."

Carlisle was saying something but thoughts were focusing on Roxanne.

"Should I tell them? On one hand, it could potentially save Bella from my fat. On the other, it could cause worry where it isn't necessary. This could be nothing. What she said Kyle doing to her in the dream could've just been a coincedence."

"Roxy," I said cutting Carlisle off. "If you know something then you should tell us. Bella is very important to us and we wanna make sure that she's always safe. We don't mind the unnecessary worry if it could potentially help Bella."

"I know. It's just, I don't even know if it's what I think it could be." she stated. "It could all be just a coincedence.I don't want us to jumnp to conclusions."

"But," I said. "Didn't Kyle use your ignorance and vulnerability to get what he wanted from you?"

She just nodded and went back to staring at her hands.

"You've got a point. I don't want that to happen to Bella." she thought. "But I don't want to scare her any more than she already is."

"I know ." I told her.

I wrapped my arm around her shoulder and pulled her to me.

"But she'll appreciated it all the more later." I finished. "Bella's tough. She's lived through one sadistic vampire attack. She knows that will do everything in our power to keep her safe. She's never doubted our ability to do that."

Roxy took an unnecesary deep breath. I heard her thoughts jumbling around trying to put themselves in order.

"With all the time I've spent with Kyle, I don't know much about him." she told the family at large. "I know that he has many powers at his disposal but I don't know how he gats them or how many more he's aquired in the last five years. He used many of his powers on me in those six months."

Her voice shook just a little and I tightened my grip on her shoulder. Her thoughts were telling me she was going to leave out details and I nodded.

"One was the electric shock touch." she stated. "He could send jolts of electricity through somone's body just by touching their bare skin. I think that's what he did to Bella in her dream. Another was the ability to step into someone else subconcious. He would torture me in my sleep every night. He said it was his favorite way to pass the nighttime."

"I'm not quite sure I understand." Carlisle stated with his brow furrowed. I could hear his though trying to work it out but he couldn't.

"To put it simply, he could get inside someone's head when they're sleeping or unconcious and manipulate their dreams. For example, he liked to replay the night he killed my family over and over in my dreams." she explained. Her voice cracked and I kissed the top of her head. She was clinging to my hand that was still on the table. "He could even go as far as to make some details fainter the others. Make you forget certain things from your dreams altogether."

"Do you think that he used this power on her, tonight?" Carlisle asked.

"I don't know." Roxanne replied. "He could've, it does sound like it, but then again it could also be Bella's subconcious playing tricks on her. That also presents the problem of being exactly what Kyle would want us to think."

"So the question is, what do we do?" Jasper stated. "Do we treat it like a threat or do we let it go?"

"I think we should consider the option of Kyle being the one to manipulate her. We'll keep our eyes open and take precautions. The first being, I don't want her going anywhere alone." Carlisle stated. "And I want her to stay here until we're sure there isn't a threat."

I agreed with him on that. I heard the others agreeing as well.

"Also, I want one of you to go to school with her everyday and watch things on campus. Make sure no one's paying extra special attention to Bella. If someone is, take a good look so you can describe him to Roxanne later." He continued.

"Should we inform the pack?" Alice questioned.

"It wouldn't hurt." Carlisle answered. "That way they can be on the look out too. Then they won't be surprised when they cross his scent. We can to that at Sunday's meeting."

I didn't know we were meeting the pack on Sunday. The confused thoughts emminating from my family told me that none of them knew it either. Carlisle mutst have gotten the hint because he said,

"I'm sorry. I was waiting until Edward got home from dropping Bella off to tell you guys. But Edward didn't come home then he called about the break up and I forgot. Sam met with the tribes elders to discuss Roxanne and the treaty. They decided that they wanted to renew it in a sense. They want to revise some thigns I guess and put in a truce claus. That kind of things. We are all going to have to resign it. Sam says they should be done by Sunday."

Everyone nodded. Their thoughts were pretty pleasant. That was the only good thing that came out of this whole deal, the animosity between us and the pack didn't seem to exist anymore. I looked up and noticed Rosalie's expression. It was sort of a grimace. At first I thought it was because of the thought of having to be around the wolves. She may not hate them anymore but she still didn't like them. However, her thoughts were on Bella.

"Should we tell Bella about this?" She thought as she stared pointedly at me.

"As much as I would like for her not to find out, I know she will eventually so we may as well be honest with her know. She would be less likely to bite one of our heads of if we tell her now." I answered the thought.

The others seemed to have a pretty good idea what I was talking about because nobody ask any questions. Carlisle declared the meeting over and everyone went in the own directions.

"Will you go for a run with me?" Roxanne asked. "I need to do some thinking." she thought. "I find it a lot more easier when your around."

"Of course." I said.

We took off out the back door. My hand in hers. We ran until we reached a clearing. We sat down and Roxanne spent the rest of the night telling me more about what Kyle did to her. It broke my heart to hear that any creature could heart somone like Roxanne. She was so beautiful and kind. She had only known us for less the seventy-two hours and she was doing everything in her power to help us protect Bella.

I swore to myself as I listened to her stories that I'd kill Kyle if I ever met him. He couldn't get away with hurting angels like Bella, Roxanne or any other poor girls his had over the centuries. I would make sure he paid for all of their suffering.

A/N: I hope you liked this one. It was another one where I just sat down and let my fingers drift over the keyboard. Please review!!!!!!!!!
