A/N: Thanks for all the reviews!! :D

Chapter 4: JPOV

I ran out of the factory and quickly ducked into the forest so I could phase, worrying about what I could do to get myself out of this mess as I did so. What had I done? How was I supposed to get myself out of this one? I soon felt Quil's presence, and it reminded me I wasn't alone. Shit. I tried to keep these thoughts to myself as I ran.

They're back. Sam told us. They're looking for Bella, and they think one of us has her. I could feel Sam's suspicion towards me in his words.

Why would one of us have her? Quil asked.

What's up? Seth asked as he entered our minds.

They came back and they're looking for Bella. Sam answered.

And, apparently, they think we have her. Quil added.

Why would they – ? Then I think it clicked in. For Seth, at least. Oh...

What? Quil asked, clearly still in the dark. What'd I miss?

Everybody remained silent for a moment, and my thoughts involuntarily flickered to Bella.

Oh. Quil finally got it. That's not good.

You know they're going to kill you if you took her, right? Seth asked, but I didn't answer.

Did you take her? Sam asked, though it seemed as if he already knew.

I sighed. That was all they needed to hear.

Dude! What were you thinking?! Quil asked. He's going to rip you to shreds! Why'd you kidnap her in the first place?

Why don't you let her go? She didn't do anything. And she needs to let Charlie know she's okay. He's probably worried sick.

Seth and Quil overloaded me with questions until my head started to spin. I had to slow down to avoid hitting a tree.

Seth, Quil, enough! Sam ordered. Jacob probably already feels bad enough as it is. Now, Jacob, what are you planning on doing to fix this?

That's just it, I replied. I have no clue what to do. I can't let her go – she'll tell Charlie, and he'll arrest me. And I can't be in jail 'cuz I have to be here, with the pack.

Well you can't just leave her. Edward will find her, or she'll escape. Sam told me.

I know, I know. I shot back. But I don't know what else to do.

Let him find her. Just leave her there until she's found. Quil suggested.

Yeah, but he would still be able to smell Jacob. Plus, what if he doesn't find her anytime soon? Seth countered.

I came to a meadow then, which was were the rest of the wolves had already gathered. Jared and Paul weren't there, and they weren't in our heads either. I wondered why, but it didn't matter at the moment. I had to figure out what to do with Bella. I began running through possibilities in my head like I had last night, but nothing new or helpful came to mind. Sam, Quil, and Seth helped out too, suggesting things that I might be able to do, but Quil and Seth were the most enthusiastic. Sam thought that it was my mess, so I should have to clean it up.

Finally, hours after Sam and Seth had left – Seth because of his parents, and Sam because he'd gotten bored and didn't really care what happened – Quil and I came up with an idea.

EPOV

I had fully snapped out of the numbing state I had been in – I was one hundred percent sure that Bella was alive now. Alice had a vision of Bella in some sort of manufacturing facility. We had searched all of Forks for the building, but found nothing. For a while, Bella had disappeared from Alice's visions. But after about two hours, Bella returned to Alice's visions, for which I was grateful.

We finally decided to sneak into La Push, staying as far away from the residents as possible, not that I cared if we were discovered. Soon after, Bella disappeared from Alice's visions again, and I became very worried.

We searched around until I came upon Bella's all too delicious scent. It smelled a little off, but I filed that thought away for contemplation later. I had to get to my poor, sweet, Bella.

"I found her!" I whispered to Alice, who was searching a mile away. She quickly rushed to my side, and sniffed the air.

"She smells a little...different." She commented.

"I noticed. But that's not important at the moment. We have to get to her!"

I began running towards the source of the scent, and smelled the horrible stench of werewolf mixed with her wonderful scent, and my throat released an involuntary growl.

Finally, though it was merely a minute later, we reached the building. Now, I noticed, her scent was really off – not because of the werewolf stench, either – and a little too strong. This made me uneasy, and I rushed inside, and Alice followed.

My jaw dropped in horror at what I saw.

There was a pool of blood on the floor. Bella's blood.
