EPOV

I had been on her side for hours now. I was just staring at her while she slept. She was restless, groaning and turning frequently. She had been asleep for more than a day now. In that time I never left her side, I ignored my hunger. I wanted to be here when she woke up. While I was staring at her I noticed the similarities between my beautiful wife and her. It pained me that I wasn´t there to see her grow up, making sure she would have a lovely childhood. Because it was the only one she would ever have, but I failed. She was grown up now and I missed all of it. When she groaned again her eyelids fluttered and for a second I was sure she would wake up. But she didn´t.

I wish I could read her mind. I hated not knowing what went through her, what she was thinking about. She was somehow cloaked for our gifts. Alice still couldn´t see her and I was not able to read her at all. Even Jasper was unable to catch any emotion from her. It was really particular that Victoria managed to do this, I wondered if it was permanent. Carlisle laid his hand on my shoulder as he walked in.

´She will be fine´ he whispered while he sat down next to me.

´Did you figure out what's wrong with her?' I asked my father.

He nodded. 'I am not certain yet, but I do have a hunch.' He cleared his throat before continuing.

'Her diet consisted of only human blood, feeding her vampire urges. However she didn't stop to think about her human side. The lack of minerals and vitamins caused scorbutus, malnutrition and all sort of things. The lack of vitamin C made her gums bleed and was slowly causing internal bleedings. The lack of vitamin B and D made her hair fall out. '

I nodded. The poor thing, no one had looked out for her. Carlisle walked to his desk and prepared a syringe with extra vitamins to inject. He tapped the syringe a few times, making sure there were no air bubbles in it. Then he took her arm carefully and injected her with it. After that he checked her vital signs and after assuring me that she would be fine he left me in silence. One by one my siblings came to check on us, all in silence. I knew they didn't know what to say to me, they knew I was teared up from the inside. My dearest Bella came to me and wrapped her arms around me. We sat in silence waiting for our little girl to wake up. Hours passed and the sun slowly set and rose.

The next day Bella left to visit her father, I promised her I would contact her if she woke up. Finally after hours of waiting her eyes slowly fluttered open. With an blank expression she tried to regain her senses. I poured in some water and handed it to her. With shaking hands she took the glass and drank a few sips. She tried to speak but before she could get the words out she coughed up blood. Carlisle promised me this would be over soon. I handed her an tissue which she used to clean the blood from her mouth and hands.

'W-What happened?' She whispered while she tried to sit up. Her eyes wandered through the room and suddenly a flash of recognition went through her.

'Oh no. Oh no no no no' She exclaimed while she looked at me terrified. I laid my hand on hers and shht her. 'You don't need to be scared Renesmee. We are not going to hurt you' I whispered and pinched her hand. She narrowed her eyes and pulled away her hand.

'What are you doing to me?' She whimpered. It was only now that she noticed we cuffed her left hand to the bed. We couldn't be too careful. She proved that she was smart and resourceful. We couldn't let her slip through our fingers again. She sighted deep.

'I am your prisoner' She stated glaring over from the cuffs to me. I shook my head.

'You are not our prisoner Renesmee. But we want to help you get better. You've proven yourself pretty resourceful and we don't want to take any risks.'

She was still glaring at me when I spoke. But suddenly her expression went blank again. Her face relaxed for a few seconds before she stared at her surroundings horrified. She blinked a few times.

'Where am I?' She whispered while her eyes wandered over the room. A feeling of fear creeped over me. Was she playing with me? Was this one of her little games? But when our eyes locked I could really see the confusion in them. I called for Carlisle which hurried into the room.

'What happened?' He asked me while his eyes scanned over her.

'Does her illness cause memory loss?' I whispered so soft she couldn't hear us.

'Memory loss?' Carlisle asked. He shook his head. He grabbed his medical supplies and tested her.

'Can you follow the light Renesmee?' He asked her while testing her pupils with a flashlight. She pushed him away.

'Stop it' she ordered weakly. She laid her head back in the pillows.

'Renesmee what do you remember happened?' Carlisle said while he checked her pulse. Her face turned ash grey.

'Remember.. I remember…' She whispered. Suddenly her body started to convulse and her eyes rolled back in her head. Blood started to run from her nose and ears.

'Carlisle what is happening?' I yelled. I could read in his mind that he didn't knew either. In seconds my family was there in the room holding her steady while Carlisle did his best to make the convulsions stop. He injected her with something and slowly her body stopped shaking.

When I woke up my head was killing me. Cold hands were pressing something against my forehead. I opened my eyes and sat up slowly. Two pair of golden angel eyes were drilling in mine. I groaned again.

'How are you feeling?' the doctor asked me while he checked my temperature. I was dizzy and I blinked a few times in an attempt to sharpen my sight. I took a few deep breaths before I even thought about answering. I was feeling a little dazed, maybe they sedated me I thought.

'I feel like crap' I mumbled. I was struggling to keep my eyes open.

'I can imagine, you gave us a real scare with the convulsions.' Edward said while he softly touched my cheek. I frowned, what?

'Do you remember what happened?' Carlisle asked me. My brain was not working with me, it struggled to keep up and fit all the puzzle pieces together. It took a while before it finally clicked.

'Oh right. I glitched' I said while I rubbed my eyes. Shards of vague memories came back to me.

'You glitched?' Carlisle repeated.

I nodded. 'It happens now and then.' They shot each other a worried look. I closed my eyes again. I was so damn tired.

We had a family gathering after that. Jacob wanted to join us too, but Carlisle ordered him to stay in bed. He still wasn't completely healed from the shooting. It was somehow nice that we were all together again, it had been a few years since we were complete. After Victoria we soon parted ways, needing to process it all on own way. It has been a period of time with a lot of judgement, frustration and pain which we all projected on each other. The family bonds started to show tears in them caused by this horrible event. So we parted ways for a while, needing time and space to slowly heal our wounds and reconcile with ourselves. But now that we sat here, we were a family again and I knew everyone here would do their best to save our little girl.

'She is not doing well' Carlisle stated. We all nodded all of us had seen how she got her sort of seizure. How her body was convulsing, how her eyes rolled back in her head and the nosebleed. I could read the grief and hurt in everyone's minds.

'What did she do to our little girl?' Rosalie groaned. Like always Rose redirected her grief to rage. She was furious and angry.

'I do not know. I can't read it, she is completely cloaked. I can't get in her head and find out what's wrong' I said while I gritted my teeth. Not able to use my gift to make her better was making me feel like an bigger failure than before.

'Who is able to cloak her like this? Who is strong enough to hide her from all our gifts?' Alice mumbled. Alice didn't say much these days, the guilt was eating her from the inside. She took it very personal that we found her after such a long time by coincidence.

'The poor thing. What can we do to help her right now? Esme asked Carlisle.

He sighted and his mind wandered off to all his previous patients. Searching for similarities, searching for anything that could help her. I could hear Emmett's mind in the background but something he was thinking stood out from the others.

'What is it Emmett?' I asked him. His eyes darted from the floor to mine.

'Nothing' He whispered quietly.

'Emmett you can tell us' Bella said while she took his hand. 'We are all in this together. No secrets remember?' She gave him a weak smile. My dearest Bella had a hard time these years. She had never been the same since Renesmee went missing, our relationship had been under a lot of stress, grief and pain. Sometimes it was not possible to comfort the other as much as we should because of our own pain. The last couple years had been a struggle, but now that we got Renesmee back she regained her hope and dreams slowly. Emmett cleared his throat and finally revealed what seemed to bother him so much.

'I gathered her things today, like Esme asked me to. She thought it would be good for her to have her own things when she woke up. So I got her bags from the hotel' He started. I could see the struggle in his mind. But then he decided that he would just show us. He walked over the kitchen and grabbed one of her bags, zipped it open and threw it on the table. Stacks of money slid out of the bag onto the table.

A heavy silence fell over us.

'How much it this?' Rosalie asked after a while.

'My guess is around 70K' Emmett answered bitter.

'How the hell…' Bella whispered. She didn't finish her sentence, her mind told me she didn't even want to know.

'I want to bring Enzo and lift up the vail that is around her' I said. Lorenzo was one of Jasper's old friends. Like me he had an extraordinary gift. He could see in someone's mind, not read what they were thinking like I could, but he could see how their mind was working, what troubles there were and take them away. For example he could see it was someone was depressed, locked up in their own thoughts of hurt and sorrow and take that barrier away. If he wanted to he could even pull up people's memories and let them relive it again. Minds were just a big playbox for him.

He could lift the cloak off her in no time. Everyone was considering this in their minds, but they all had different opinions on it. I thought about it for a while and got to the conclusion we had no other choice. We had to know what was wrong with her before we could help her. She didn't want us to help her, so we had to find out another way.

'But we can't just invade her privacy like that' Esme said while she shook her head.

'She won't like it' Jasper said while he folded his hands under his chin. 'But I don't see another option. If we don't figure out what is wrong with her soon we could lose her forever.'

The sound of footsteps caught my attention. It couldn't be… I jumped up and hurried to the hallway. She was halfway down the stairs by the time I entered. How the hell did she escape her cuffs?

She looked even worse that she did a few hours ago. There were dark rings under her eyes, her face was gray like all the color flushed out of it. Her heartbeat was racing and her eyes were bloodshot. She looked really pissed.

'Renesmee' I whispered while I stepped forward to aid her.

'Stay there' She hissed. I froze in my steps not wanting to agitate her more.

The others entered behind me, she would never win this. It was eight against one, what was she thinking? She placed her hands on her temples. Her bloodshot eyes were having a hard time focusing on us.

'What are you doing to me?' She whispered. 'You people are messing with my mind so bad'

'My mother warned me for this. She already said once you found me you will mess with my head' She said, more to herself than to us. She steadied herself on the staircase but after a few seconds decided to sit down anyway. She was still clutching to the staircase and mumbled something. If it wasn't for my super sensitive hearing I wouldn't be able to pick it up.

'Thinking about you people hurts my head. And now you are constantly around me, I need to get out of here' Was what she said. She let her head rest against the staircase and closed her eyes slowly. I hurried up the stairs and lifted her numb body. My eyes founds Jaspers 'Call Enzo right away' I said while I walked her back to her room. When she was stable Carlisle promised to stay with her.

I walked downstairs to confide with the others. I didn't know what was happening to Renesmee, but someone somewhere did something really fucked up to her. My mind was racing trying to make sense of her words. What did she mean when she said that thinking about us hurt her?
The ball of burning rage inside of my grew bigger and bigger, I hated the idea that someone broke her like this. I would do everything in my power to make her functional again.

Let me know what you think!
