"Sorry Alice, I wasn't listening. What'd you say?" I asked Alice. I had gone on a little tangent inside my head, but I needed an explanation, so I didn't feel so bad about not listening. So Alice said that she knew where Edward was located, that we just had to get there. But there was a tricky part to the situation. See "vampire headquarters", you could call it, was in Volterra, Italy. There, there are special types of vampires, like Alice and Edward, who have extra abilities, like seeing the future or reading minds. But Edward's kidnappers were set to leave for there, as Alice saw, but haven't left yet. And if we didn't leave soon, we wouldn't be able to catch them before they left for Italy. Cause if that were the case, we'd have to find a flight and head over there, while they would probably have their own means of transportation that would be undoubtedly faster. And…we might not be in time.

For what? Alice wouldn't exactly tell me. Most likely trying not to scare the hell out of me, so I wouldn't and couldn't back out. But I myself knew I wouldn't, I knew I had to be strong for this. I didn't want pain anymore, because if there was any pain related to Edward in my life, I knew I could very well die. Though it sounds dramatic, try having half of your soul being ripped out of you, and that's what Edward did to me. If Edward was willing to cooperate was a different story, but he would have to. Because I needed him, otherwise I might go into despair and angst. He wouldn't want to see that, no boy does. So he'd feel for me right? To be whole, and what Edward wanted me to be, he'd have to be a part of my life. There was no other conclusion. Whether he would be a part of my life for a hopeful eternity was again another story.

But Alice said Marcus' and Alex's plan (the names of Edward's kidnappers), as far as she would tell me, was to take him to the other side of the country. So incase I would miraculously obtain information of where Edward was, or any of his family, it would difficult to find him. Luckily, they didn't know that Alice could see what they were planning. Unfortunately for us, she had to see around (by herself; normally Edward helped) and feel for vampires. Alice's power could not normally do that, but in being Edward's brother for so long, she picked up a small ability to sense and see vampires nearby. And nearby, being a vampire's, was a thousand times bigger than a human's close by. But their plan, and they were close to being there, was to take him to a small, secluded town, much like Forks, to hide in till they were given a go. And Alice saw the plan, and it headed towards a small town on the shore of New Jersey. Diamond Beach, New Jersey to have an exact pinpoint. I've always heard New Jersey beaches were good, if not, the boardwalks amazing. So I was slightly excited to go there, but I had to stay focused. Edward needed me, whether or not he denied it.

"Come on, Bella. We've go to get out of here first." She said urging me to get up and move. I hadn't realized that we were still in the hospital.

"Wait, what about Charlie?" I suddenly remembered and asked. Could I leave him a note? He was very worried; cause the whole reason I was here was because of Edward. He made me collapse onto my bedroom floor unconscious.

"Uhm, well we don't have that much time Bella…here," She quickly grabbed a pen and a pad of paper, "Write him a brief note. We have to hurry!" As she gathered my things, though there weren't that many, I wrote an elaboration on what happened and where I was for Charlie.

Dad,

Sorry for the scare earlier, but I have to hurry. Though you might be angry on why I'm leaving, I have to go. Alice just told me that Edward is in danger. I know he's the one who hurt me, but I have to do this for…myself. If I don't help him, I may not be able to go on with my life, as I plan to, to help you. I'll call as soon as I can. Don't worry.

I love you,

Bells

The note was difficult because I wasn't sure when the next time I would see Charlie would be. But now I had to focus. Edward was in danger, and though he might deny it, he needed my help.

I swiftly followed Alice down the hall trying to be as graceful as her. Grace seemed to bring silence in your step. But, being me, as I tried to dance down the hallway as Alice does, I tripped over my own feet and feel flat on my face. I groaned, but had to get up and hurry off, because my little show made massive amounts of noise, and I heard footsteps coming from the direction towards the outside world. That's where Alice and I were trying to escape. Dang it. We had to find a different exit, and quickly. Alice gave me a roll-of-the-eyes, and a slight smirk. Stylishly she picked me up, and tangoed down the hall, opposite the footsteps' coming. Alice knew just what to do to make someone feel better and calm someone in a time of worry. I guess she picked it up from Jasper, with his emotion-controlling power.

Soon, we danced upon a dark hallway, seeming like it had been deserted. We wanted to take a break there, and figure out our plan.

And when we caught our breath, "Alight, Bella? No more dancing down hallways; you trip when you walk slowly." She gave a quick laugh, and it helped me calm down and focus.

"So what's the plan?" I asked too eagerly; this was a life-threatening situation that I had to survive in order to possibly complete myself.

"Alright, well Bella. We have to keep track of Alex and Marcus. See where they're heading, because they probably have a fast-track route. And we need to be as prompt as possible in order to save him—" I cut Alice off from her rant of perfectly pronounced syllables.

"Wait! Alice, why—does Edward…I need to know something…" I finally finished my incomplete thought.

"Uhm, okay, but make it quick. They're vampires and can flit too."

"Okay…d-does…Edward know w-we're coming to help him? Well, or that I'm coming?" If he didn't know, he might not want me there.

"Okay, listen. I'm going to be brief, cause we really have to go," Alice sighed. "Okay, Bella, he was in denial all while we were gone. He said this was better for you, that that's all he wanted. Was for you to be safe. But we—all of us—knew that he was incomplete and, so to speak, dying inside without you. All day he…he might kill me for telling you this but, all day, he would just stay in his room, talking to himself, shuddering and whimpering. He said to me once, that he could hear some of the kids at school's thoughts, very choppy and unclear, but he could still hear them. And he…he heard that you pretty much looked like a vampire. All pale, and purple shadows. And he couldn't stand it. He knew he himself wouldn't be okay, but he thought you could go on. And when he heard that you weren't exactly doing so, he gave up. All for you…" Alice rushed through it very fast, and sometimes I couldn't understand her, but I heard some things that just connected and linked up. Edward missed me, or so she said. But, from the sound of it, he wanted the best for me, and obviously he didn't know that included him in my life. But, he would be in denial when I found him and some—

"Alright! Bella, focus! We have to move. I know you're probably ecstatic, but when you see him…well, you'll see. But come on. No one is at the door, and I don't see anyone catching us."

She picked me up and tossed me on her back, for preserving my whole state, and I was even still woozy from all the drugs they injected into me, and the recent breathing anxiety. Being on the back of a should-be dancer was fun. You felt amazing, well, you did if you were a clumsy baby horse like I was where every step made me tumble because it was like I was just learning.

Easily we found the back exit and were on the expedition for finding a very speedy sports car, so Alice could drive insanely fast like the rest of her family.

(A/N: Please tell me what you think of it! Cause I don't know if everything seems okay. K thanks : )
