Chapter 13: Be Safe

They stood there and time stood still, everyone froze, which told me that the first of which I've seen of the mystery vampires was not the first the rest of the Cullen's heard or seen of them.

'Damn, I thought we had more time' Carlisle thought.

'They were on their way out, what changed?' Emmett thought.

'Her hair is so unruly' Rose thought.

'Her hair rocks' Was Melanie, of course my mom would say that. But I had to agree it did rock.

'Oh no, this isn't good.' That was the always caring Esme.

'Maybe I can make them feel unwelcome.' Jasper thought.

'Who is he I know I've seen him before, in a vision? No…' That was Alice's thoughts; it's scary when Alice was unsure.

'Edward, hide Bella behind you. I'll try to make the wind blow away her scent' Chuck was on top of things.

'Bella relax, there are three of them and nine of us you'll be fine. Come here' Edward said to me and I leaned into his side.

The dark skinned one spoke up.

"Hello, I'm Laurent, this is James, and this is Victoria, we heard you play." Laurent said.

"So we meet again." Carlisle spoke for all of us.

"So we do Carlisle, can we play?" Laurent asked. James's stare was focused on me.

'With an addition,' Victoria thought.

'That girl wasn't there before,' James thought.

There was silence across the make-shift field.

"Just one game?" Laurent asked. Alice's vision started to play out.

"Of course a few of us were just leaving. You can take their places." Carlisle said, ode to the compassionate one.

'Run Bella, run!' Alice thought.

'Shit this wind is stronger than I thought.' Chuck thought. Not a good sign.

I took a very subtle step backwards, but in that moment the wind pushed against Chuck full force.

Then as the vision was playing out James took a deep unnecessary breath.

"You brought a snack." He said.

Then everyone, especially Edward was snarling at him in defensive stances.

"Stay away from my daughter!" Melanie snarled at James.

"She's human," He snarled back at her.

"She's only half human," Victoria spoke up. "And half vampire James,"

"And how do you know that?" He asked her his gaze still intent on me.

"She was like me, her heart hasn't sped up yet," Victoria smirked. "And she's edible until she changes."

'Well that changes things,' He thought.

Ice ran though my veins and stayed there. These vampires were planning to kill me.

"I think it's wise you leave," Carlisle said pretending they weren't discussing eating me.

"Oh I think so too," James said, wrapping an arm around Victoria's shoulder, and he whispered something in her ear.

'This has just become the most interesting game ever. She'll taste delicious; I will track her as soon as she runs.' He thought. Ah, hell, just when life was starting to go right.

"I thought my husband just said that you are to leave, you are no longer welcome here." Esme snarled at them. Her glare was deadly, I never seen this side of her before.

'Bella I'm going to run you out of here.' Edward thought to me.

'But he-' I couldn't even argue with him, because before I knew it I was on his back and we were running again.

'And the hunt is on!' I heard James's thoughts as we were disappearing through the woods. And I heard him running in the other direction.

'Ah, hell,' I thought as I hid my face in Edward's neck.

'Bella he won't lay a hand on you, I'll- we'll-keep you safe.' Edward thought as we arrived at the house.

"What the plan Carlisle?" Edward asked as we walked into the house. The others who were faster than us were already in the house.

"Bella needs to leave get him off her tail for a bit, but she isn't leaving with you." Carlisle said.

"No I won't go anywhere without her." Edward told him sternly.

"No, she's the safest with Rosalie and Emmett, or Alice and Jasper, not us Edward, not even Esme and Carlisle." Melanie told him from somewhere in the house.

"It can't be us," Rose said, for both her and Emmett. "I was with her last time. It has to be Alice and Jasper."

"I agree. We were in Peru last time so he shouldn't have known about us, unless you told?" Jasper asked.

"No. We had no use to tell about you, we mainly just sent them in the direction of the Alaskans." Rosalie said sharply. It hinted at something that happened before I found them, something that caused hurt to Rose.

"Rosalie let it go!" Chuck snapped at her.

"Stop fighting!" I screamed at them.

"We know this tracker is after me alright. Now there is no time to dwell on whatever happened in the past. We need to figure out where I need to go to get away from that creep, and I want to know why Edward can't come with me?" I commanded. No body answered me at first.

"Bella we're going to phoenix," Alice to me. "I just saw it, I don't know why but we are."

"Edward can't go with you because wherever you go James will know Edward will go with you. It's because of what happened before." Esme said. Nothing being sugar coated there.

"How much time do we have?" I asked.

"Not much at all, I can hear them, Chuck throw them off!" Mel said coming down the stairs with three bags.

When nothing happened she yelled "Go!" And Alice started pulling me towards the garage, as Jasper grabbed the bags and a set of keys.

"Wait!" Edward commanded. Everyone froze. He closed the gap between us in three long strides.

He took my face in both his hands. His eyes searching for something in mine, I made sure to trying and put all my love and trust in to my gaze back. I guess that was all he needed to see because he secured his lips with mine in a passionate kiss.

"Be safe." He whispered and then he let me go.

An: Done another one.

Okay so for those of you who have been with the story a while, first of all thanks a billion, I love you for it, but here's the thing. I didn't think the first, second, and fifth chapters were done well enough so I redid them last night. Possibly I will redo other chapters but so far it was just those ones. So please reread those chapters and tell me what you think.

Ok so I hope you liked, the deal still remains. Please don't feel shy about giving tips. Please review because I love hearing what you have to say.

I still own nada, and sorry for spelling/grammatical errors.
