Heart of Gold
I woke up in a room. Not like when I got hurt and woke up in a hospital. I was at the room where I had woken up a vampire. The only difference was I wasn't lying on my back. I tried to roll over but hands grabbed me, holding me still.
"Hold still Bella. It's okay. Your fine." A voice said. I wasn't sure who's. I couldn't remember much.
I noticed the pain in my back after the voice told me to hold still. Not just a little pain, but a big pain stretching all the way down my back. I heard Jacob's voice screaming at Edward's.
"It wasn't my fault. She got in the way of me. I told you when I imprinted I couldn't let anyone hurt her. Bella keeping me away from Renesmee would not turn out well." Jacob yelled.
"You didn't have to chase her down. She was only protecting her daughter, and in the process you hurt her."
Pain struck my body. I knew this pain. It was the same pain I had when I was burning from the venom. The fire was back. Only it couldn't be from venom. I screamed, and Renesmee cried. My eyes shot open, and all I saw was black. My face was in my pillow and I couldn't move because of the hands. I didn't know how long I had been knocked out. It had obviously been by medicine because vampires couldn't sleep. I was thirsty and I needed to get out. I lay there for a while, still held down by the hands. By then my thirst had disappeared. Like someone had fed me.
"Jacob, get out and never come back." Edward yelled.
"I can't do that. I will end up coming back even if it kills me." Jacob yelled at Edward.
"Daddy, when will mommy wake up?" I heard a squeaky little voice say.
"Soon, Renesmee." Edward said.
I realized that I must have been out for a while because Renesmee was already speaking. I didn't realize how much I wanted to see my little girl till it woke a brain cell inside me. I wanted to wake up. I wanted it so badly. I just opened my eyes, and walked over to my little girl.
"Bella?! Bella?!" Edward screamed, trying to get me to focus.
I didn't know if I was in a trance or not. I tried to speak, but I couldn't. Something was wrong. I wasn't moving anymore. I just stood there. Staring into Edward's golden eyes. He shook me as hard as he could, but nothing worked. Then everything when black again. I tried to get up, to move, to do anything, but I couldn't. It was like Edward was still shaking me, I just didn't know if he was or not. It was like the whole Earth was shaking. I didn't know what was going on, but I heard Renesmee scream. It was as if she was dying. That thought woke me up completely. I jumped up, and ran to my daughter, and then I realized the Earth was shaking, but it wasn't an Earthquake. I didn't know what it was, but I realized whatever it was, I had to keep Renesmee and Edward alive. All of a sudden the ground stopped shaking.
"Bella, get Renesmee out of here." I heard Edward scream.
"No! I'll do it." Jacob said, running over to grab Renesmee, but he was too late, I had already picked her up and started running.
I ran, listening to Renesmee's even breathing. After I got out of the house I looked up and saw what was shaking the house. A jet. Trees were falling everywhere around up, trapping up inside the area. The jet was landing there in the front yard. A girl got out the next second at vampire speed. Victoria. She was still alive? She was here, and near my daughter. Suddenly Edward was by my side. I pushed Renesmee behind Edward, and took off running straight in Victoria's direction.
I dived at Victoria, throwing my whole body at her, protecting my daughter. Victoria fell to the ground, but got back up and grabbed me at vampire speed, throwing me over her shoulder. She ran with me over her shoulder, away from the house and Edward. She must have realized Edward would have followed, and so she led him away so she could fight me and him at once. She wasn't used to people figuring out her plan. I yelled what I thought about her to Edward, and started to kick at Victoria. I finally figured out where she was going. She was heading to the waterfall and the mountain. I grabbed her arm and started to push down, and I finally got her to let go of me. I fell to the ground landing on a defensive pose, ready to kill. She came running at me, and I punched her head to the side as hard as I could. I heard a cracking noise and realized it was my fist cracking her face. I saw this only one other time. When the Volturi tried to kill Edward, but I stopped them. Victoria looked at me, and smiled and evil smile, then took off running. I looked at Edward with a confused look.
"She'll be back sometime. Maybe years, but she will come back."
We both turned and ran back to the house. I ran and grabbed my daughter in a hug, Victoria wouldn't touch her.
"Mommy, who was that scary lady?" Renesmee asked me, frightened. She had never met Victoria.
"It's okay baby, she won't hurt you. She won't ever come near you."
For the first time in a while I felt like the fragile human that I used to be. I felt as if I couldn't keep my daughter or Edward from harm, but I wondered only one question. Was Victoria coming back alone or was she bringing somebody else with her?
