Chapter 9: Oh No They Didn't

Bella POV

Listening to Shannon tell the story was pissing me off. I cannot believe they would be so selfish as to bring me into this. For all I knew, everyone I loved was in danger by this. Angela and the rest of my friends, the love of my existence Edward and his loving family, which of course they don't need protection, and lastly Charlie. Sweet innocent Charlie.

The anger started to build even more inside me as I thought of these things and before I knew it I called Shannon a bitch and slapped her silly. Oh wow, I just slapped my ex best friend. Well she deserved it, putting the people I love in this danger. She was quiet for a long time.

She then looked me in the eye and said, "I am so sorry Bella."

I don't think I ever seen her cry before, but there she was.

I asked her, "Why come here? You put the people I love in danger and now there is this guy here possibly stalking you over some money that you don't even owe him. I mean I knew something was up, but I never thought it was something like this."

I need to call Edward was all I said before I ran out my bedroom door. I was running down the stairs when of course I slipped, but caught myself before I fell on my face.

By this time Manny was awake and he said to me, "Where's the fire Bella?"

I walked right past him and started looking for my phone, but I was having no luck. "Where did I put it", I asked myself.

Manny came into the kitchen where I was and asked me what is wrong.

"Don't talk to me", was all I said to him as I continued to search for my phone.

Shannon came down the stairs and Manny was about to ask a question, but I think her face gave him away because he said,

"So you told her anyway".

Shannon nodded at him and anger now controlled his face.

I said, "Don't you dare get mad at her Manny. She did the right thing by telling me even though it should have been done sooner. Where is my phone?"

"Duh Bella, remember you gave it to us. Here it is", Manny said.

I went over and snatched the phone out of his hand and went into the other room. I dialed Edward's number and it just rang until the voicemail came up. I was shocked, but I had to leave a message anyway.

Hey Edward, its Bella and I wanted to tell you that you were right about Shannon and Manny, but then again you are always right. Just call me or come over when you get a chance and I will explain everything to you. I would feel much safer if you were here with me…the phone fell out of my hand. Oh Jacob, you scared the crap out of me! You just hold on a minute while finish this message to Edward. I love you Edward and I will see you soon.

"What are you doing here Jacob", I said.

He said, "What? I can't come and visit my best friend and since I knew the bloodsucker was not here, I decided to come on over. You do have guests though, human guests." Yes I do have some old friends from Arizona. At that point Shannon and Manny came into the room. I introduced them to one another and I can tell that Jacob knew something was up because the way he was looking at me.

All of sudden, I started to get this bad feeling in my stomach. Something bad was about to happen. Before anyone had time to react, my kitchen window shattered and Jacob was on the floor. Something came through the window and hit him on the neck. I got down on the floor and asked,

"Jacob, are you okay? Wake up Jacob."

I was shaking him and shaking, but he wouldn't budge. I pulled something that looked like a needle out of his neck.

Manny and Shannon had become statues of fear because neither one of them moved a muscle. I was wondering to myself who would do something like this, but the people responsible walked through the door.

I asked, "Who are you? What are you doing in my house?"

Shannon said, "That's…that's…that's Black and Jimmy.

"Well I don't care if his name is Blue, he better leave my house. What did you do to Jacob", I said.

Black said, "He seemed like he would be more trouble for us, being so big and all, so we took him out with the tranquilizer gun. He will be fine in a couple of hours."

I told him, "My father is Chief of Police, and so I would advise you to leave before he comes here."

"He won't find any of us here because we are leaving", Black said.

I said, "You are crazy! I'm not going anywhere with you."

Black started saying, "Everyone is going with us. I am sure they have told you everything and whether you like it or not, you are now involved. Now Jimmy, take those hand cuffs and cuff the ladies to the stairs."

"Why", Jimmy said.

Black said, "We need to make sure they don't try to get away while we are putting this guy in the trunk of the car."

They cuffed Shannon and I together on my staircase and couldn't help but think about Edward. How I hoped he would come busting through the door and saving me like he did when James tried to kill me last year. What are we going to do? I know Alice can't see us because Jacob is around.

Shannon brought me out of my thoughts when she started crying saying,

"Bells I am so sorry. You have to believe me. I never thought that this would happen. Him coming here is…"

I cut her off saying, "Oh save it Shannon. You knew that something like this could have happened when you and Manny made the decision of coming here involving me in you mess. Now look what has happened. They have hurt my best friend and its all your fault.

I banged my hip against the staircase trying to release some of the anger when I came to realize that my cell phone was still in my pocket. I pulled the phone out of my pocket with my free hand and was about to call Edward. Then it hit me that I should text him so that they wouldn't hear me talking. I texted him saying:

Edward PLEASE HELP ME!!! Two men have knocked out Jacob and have taken us hostage. PLEASE HURRY!!!

-Bella-

The last thing I remember seeing was Message Sent before everything around me started to go black.

As my eyes started to slowly close, I whispered Edward's name into the darkness…
