(Edward POV)

My tackle must have knocked her out. Good, now she won't mind me running with her at lightning speed. I could bite her right now and have this behind me. No, I am a Cullen. I have to set a good example for the rest of the world. Her blood sung to me, her faint breathing calling me.

At our home, I sighed. It's so good to be back. Strangely, this was one of my favorite places we have lived in my entire two hundred year lifetime. She was stirring, I heard a noise, but I don't think it was a word. Oh, right. I'm still holding her. She must not like being held by a freezing cold rock. I glanced around, realizing that there are no beds in this house. I could use Rose and Emmett's bed… no, she's probably think I was trying to… nevermind. I placed her on the oversized couch, and went to get another couch from my room to make a temporary bed. I slid it up next to the other couch. Now for a cover. I'm sure Alice has some giant fur coat in her closet. I tiptoed all the way upstairs to her and Jasper's room. I opened her closet door, a bit scared of what I'd find. It was huge, and so was the noise from the alarm system that went off. I punched the bell, as not to wake the girl. Back to the fur coat. Man, Alice's closet needs a map. Dresses, jeans, sweaters, here we go, parka. BINGO. I went back downstairs for the girl. Esme should be here soon. I covered the sleeping girl.

I felt and heard a loud buzzing and beeping from my bag. I looked at the small screen. It read BREAK IN: FORKS WASHINGTON. Hmmm…. Australia can wait. They're a bunch of fashionless idiots anyway. Hello civilization! (A/N: sorry people in Australia!!! that's just something Alice would do! Now, back to the story!)

(Esme POV)

"Edward, dear, what happened? You never call me unless its an emergency! Oh dear, I haven't seen you-" I cried when I saw my "son" Edward. I was immediately hushed by him. He seems a bit tense.

Confused, I stepped forward to see two of our nice couches pushed together. In them, I saw a frail teenager, about seventeen, sprawled about and covered by a parka.

What happened? I thought.

Edward replied, "Well I was going to give a speech at a school, then I smelled her blood and-" At that moment, Alice burst into the house with a gun, screaming.

"WHO ARE YOU, WHAT DID YOU TAKE, AND WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!?!?!?!?!?!?!"
