Me: Right, right. I'll get to it.

I LOVE ALL MY REVIEWERS! ALL…-counts- 23 OF YOU! :D

Bella's POV

He was gone. My beautiful baby boy. Right on the day before his first birthday. I ran down the stairs as fast as I could, and almost ran into the wall grabbing for the phone. With a shaking hand, I dialed the Cullen's number.

"Hello?" Esme answered.

"E-esme…" I said softly.

"Bella? What's wrong?" She asked.

"What is it?" I heard Edward ask.

"It's Alexander," I mumbled softly, wiping at my face constantly to keep the flow of tears under control.

"What about Alexander? Bella! What?" She asked.

"He's gone! Someone has kidnapped him!" I exclaimed.

"I'm sending Edward over to keep you company. Call your dad, and I'll call Carlisle. Please remain calm." She said as gently as she could.

"Okay."

We hung up, and I went up to my room. I set the crib back up, and a piece of paper caught my eye. I picked it up off the floor, and looked at it. It was a note!

Dear human girl,

We stole your child. Chances are, you will never get him back. He is the answer we have been looking for to destroy the Cullen's for years! If you do get him back, he'll most likely be a vampire. So sorry, well, not really.

Vampire? What the hell?

"Bella?" I heard Edward call.

Well. I didn't hear him knock.

"I'm coming," I called running down the stairs.

I carefully slipped the note in my pocket. I'll ask Carlisle about it later.

"Did you call Charlie yet?" Edward asked.

"No I was…up there," I whispered.

He nodded, and I headed to the phone. I dialed the police station's number.

"Hello?" Someone answered.

"Hey Mark. Is my dad there?" I asked.

"Yeah. Hold on."

I looked over at Edward, a confused expression on his face. I turned back to looking at the phone.

"Hello?" Charlie asked.

"Hey Dad," I whispered.

"Bella? Is something wrong?" He asked, anxious at the tone of my voice.

"It's Alexander. He's been kidnapped."

"What happened?" He asked.

"Alexander was sleeping, so I put him in his crib. I cleaned around the house, and started dinner for us. I looked over some of my homework and I heard a noise on the baby monitor and went up. I found his crib tipped over and the window open." I said, as calmly as I could.

Sooner or later, I was going to break out into hysterics. Hopefully, later.

"I'll be there as soon as I can, Bella. Just keep calm." With that, my dad hung up and I set the phone down.

Sobs tore through my chest, as I slid down to the ground. I put my head in my hands, and forgot all about Edward being in my house.

Author's POV

A dingy building on the edge of Forks resonated with cries from a small child.

"Shut it up!" Someone growled, fierce red eyes glowing in the faint light.

One girl picked up the small child and began rocking it.

"What the hell do you expect me to do? We stole it! Let's turn it now!" She hissed.

"No! If the Cullen's get a hold of it, then they will track us down and show the Volturi that we turned the child. No. We need to bide our time, lure the girl here." One said.

"I don't think this is a good idea," Another muttered.

"Shush! The baby is sleeping now." The girl murmured.

"We lure the girl here, the Cullen's come. We hurt the child too much for repair and bam! Emergency vampirization to save the child." He finished.

"Are you sure about this, John?" The other man said softly.

"Shut up, Todd! Marie, set the kid down. He's sleeping." John said softly.

"We have waited too many years to eradicate the golden-eyed Cullen's. We will not have you ruining it, Todd." Marie whispered, setting Alexander down.

"I don't even remember what the Cullen's did to us!" Todd hissed furiously.

"Mostly, it's Carlisle, but the others must pay now too. He sided with the Volturi against us, telling them that we started the immortal race. We did not, and now when he turns the small child, we run to the Volturi to tell them the misdeed the Cullen's committed. It's called the perfect revenge." James answered, laughing evilly, but softly.

Edward's POV

Yep. Definitely one of our kind. The room smelled of us, and it wasn't me. Gurgled sobs reached my ears from downstairs, and I sighed. I wasn't that good at comforting people, but I would have to try for Bella.

"Bella?" I asked softly, coming down the stairs.

She was sitting on the floor, leaning against a wall, sobs tearing through her like there was no tomorrow. I walked over to her, and sat down beside her.

"Bella?" I asked again, feeling quite stupid for doing so.

"Go away…please," She whispered.

I didn't. Instead, I wrapped my arms around her, noting how warm she was.

"We'll find him. We'll find him." I said over and over again.

Gradually, her sobs stopped and she leaned into me, sighing away her tears, and welcoming her weariness.

"Go on. Go to sleep." I whispered.

And I began humming. Humming a lullaby for her. Not for Alexander, but for her.

"Okay…Edward?" She asked, obviously more tired than she thought.

"What, Bella?" I asked.

"Thank you. Please, help me find my baby." And with that, she was gone into a peaceful sleep.

I picked her up easily, and took her to her bed. I covered her with a blanket, and searched for Charlie's mind. He was about 10 minutes away, and Carlisle was with him. Good. Carlisle would be able to tell me just who these men, or better yet cowards, where and why they took Bella's son.

I sat by her bedside, holding her hand while she slept. Soon, I could hear Charlie's car and Carlisle's car right behind it. I raced down the stairs and opened the door for them. Charlie immediately glanced at me with suspicion, and tromped up the stairs.

"You smell them, don't you?" I asked.

Carlisle nodded, his lips pressed in a tight line.

"You know who they are." I said.

He nodded.

"Yes. I do know who they are. I know why they want to get back at me as well." He said.

"Why?" I asked.

"Later. I will tell you later. With the whole family." Carlisle murmured.

"Well, she's sleeping alright. Edward, is this yours? I found it on her floor." Charlie said, handing me a crumpled up piece of paper. "I didn't read it."

I opened the piece of paper, and read what was on it. My mouth went dry as I watched Carlisle's eyes tightened every second.

"Yes. It is my homework. Thank you." I said, tucking the note in my jacket.

"Charlie. Please, give her these for her stress." Carlisle said handing him some pills.

Charlie took the pills begrudgingly, no doubt on the brink of tears.

"Thank you," He mumbled, stumbling up the stairs to the bathroom.

I looked at Carlisle, and he nodded.

"Charlie! We are going to leave! Do not hesitate to call me!" Carlisle called.

"Okay!" Charlie called back.

We nodded to each other, and left the house. Carlisle took his car, and I started to run. I heard a gasp behind me. I turned around, and Isabella Swan was looking out the window, right at me.

Bella's POV

I had just woken up, and I felt around my pockets. The note was gone. I looked all around my room before looking out my window. I saw Edward running, and I gasped really loud. He turned to look at me, had he heard that? And he stopped running immediately. I ducked my head out of sight, and heard Charlie moving stuff around in the bathroom.

"Dad?" I called, walking into the bathroom.

His eyes were red-rimmed and I hugged him.

"I know, Dad. I know." I said softly.

"I heard Edward and Carlisle talking. They said something about knowing who took Alexander. Go to their house, Bella. You deserve to know." Charlie whispered.

I nodded, and raced down the stairs. I grabbed my car keys, and headed out to my car. Jamming the keys in the ignition, I backed out of our drive. Seeing the empty back seat drove tears to my eyes, but I blinked them away and headed towards the Cullen house.

I wound around the drive easily now, and parked the car. I jumped out of it, and raced to the front door. I looked in the window and saw them all talking very loudly.

"Edward, it's fine! Please, just let him explain!" Esme exclaimed.

"I've seen it all in his head! The only reason these vampires are coming after Bella and Alexander is because of him!" Edward exploded, pointing a finger at Carlisle.

Jasper locked eyes with me, and I ducked down.

"Edward, I believe we have a visitor," I heard Jasper say.

I mentally cursed myself, and crossed over to the door.

"Bella!" Edward exclaimed, surprised that I was there.

"Yeah. Can I come in?" I asked.

"Of course," He said moving aside.

Once again, I locked eyes with Jasper as I came in past Edward.

"Confusion am I right, Bella? Confusion, sadness, rage?" Jasper asked.

I stared at him, pleasantly surprised. So he knew how I was feeling…interesting.

"Jasper!" Edward yelled, incredulous.

"She heard you, Edward, and she no doubt read the note. She knows Edward." Jasper said, as calm as could be.

Everyone looked at me.

"L-look! I want answers and I want them now!" I exclaimed, startling everybody. "I mean it! Where is Alexander? Who has taken him?"

Edward sighed, and looked to Carlisle.

"The vampires, if they are still together, are John, Todd, and Marie. They are a small coven of vampires, very evil. They have red-eyes because they feed on the blood of humans. We have golden eyes because we feed on the blood of animals. I believe they still hold a grudge for something that happened so long ago. There was an age of the immortal children. The children were very beautiful, yes, but oh so deadly. They could not be trusted, so they had to be destroyed. I had believed that Marie, Todd, and John had created them, so I left them for the Volturi. The Volturi are like the kings of our kind, and they decide the law. Of course, Marie, Todd, and John escaped. Marie made it so Demetri could not track them down. I believe they took Alexander, and are planning on turning him into an immortal child." Carlisle explained.

I couldn't process it. Alexander, a blood-drinker?

"What if they turn him?" I asked Carlisle.

"They will no doubt run to the Volturi and tell them that we did it. Of course, Todd will be the only one to go. Aro cannot read his mind…" Carlisle murmured mainly to himself.

I didn't feel myself falling until hard arms caught me. I blacked out after that.

"Momma! Momma! Look what I can do!" Alexander exclaimed.

He was three, and he was very much alive. I watched as he began swinging by himself, and then jumping off. I clapped for him, as I always did.

"Come here, Alexander!" I called.

He began running towards me, only to be swept up by a woman not much older than myself. Her pale skin glinted like diamonds in the sunlight, and her blood-red eyes narrowed at me. Her black hair hung down to her lower back, and she began snarling.

"Momma!" Alexander screamed.

"Alexander!" I yelled, getting up from my place in the grass.

Four hands grabbed me and held me in place. To my right, a man with pale skin gazed at me sadly. His red eyes held much emotion, and his side-swept brown hair kept falling in his face. To my left, the man glared at me menacingly, red eyes sweeping over me. His blond hair was long, to his shoulders, and they forced me to my knees.

"Help me, Momma!"

I watched as the woman opened her mouth, placed it on Alexander's neck, and bit down. His piercing scream rang through my ears as I fought against the ones who held me down. She dropped Alexander, her lips red, and he began thrashing against the ground. Then, he lay limp. Another bloodcurdling scream emitted from him, and I screamed along with him, defenseless as I watched him writhe in pain.

I opened my eyes and tried to forget the dream. I was very sure that the vampires in my dream were the ones Carlisle spoke of, but how? I sat up, realizing that I was comfortable and alone. I was on a long couch in someone's room. Looking around desperately for a piece of paper and a pencil, I finally found one, and began drawing.

If the vampire's super hearing picked up on my pencil scratching furiously on a piece of paper, they didn't react to it. I had finally completed my drawing when someone knocked on the door, pulling me out of my concentration. Edward entered then, looking at me covering up my paper.

"I see you are up," He said softly.

I nodded.

"What are you drawing?" He asked.

"Something I need to show Carlisle," I answered.

He looked confused. One minute Edward was alone, and in the next second Carlisle was right beside him.

"Something for me?" Carlisle asked.

"I had a dream…do you recognize these people?" I asked, handing him the paper.

"You are a very good drawer," He commented.

Edward nodded.

"Yes. You appear to have dreamed Marie, Todd, and John. John is the one with the longer hair, and it is blonde. Todd is the other man, and of course, Marie is the girl. Tell me, how did your dream go?" He asked.

I explained my dream for him, and when I was done, they were both astonished.

"Incredible!" Carlisle exclaimed.

"What do you think it means, Carlisle?" Edward asked.

"It means that if we can find Todd before John and Marie find we did, then we can convince him to help us get Alexander back. Todd wasn't one to remain evil." Carlisle explained.

"Do you think this means that Alexander is still alive? Alive and…not dead, in a sense?" I asked, happy to have been of some help.

"It might mean just that," Carlisle answered, smiling.

I jumped up and down happily, and hugged Edward. Carlisle and Edward chuckled, as Edward returned my hug. Hopefully, we would find Alexander soon, and I would be reunited with my baby boy.

Me: Is anyone happy now?

Edward, Bella, Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper, Alice: No.

Me: -sighs- Would you be happy if he was back?

All: Yes.

Me: Soon, my vampires…soon…
