Edward's POV.

I had seen Alice's vision in my head. I prayed that we had time to stop it from happening. I sat up as quickly as I could with out waking Elizabeth and handed her to Emmett, who was sitting on the other end of the sofa.

"Naomi!" I called up the stairs, hoping that she would answer me.

I went to her bedroom door and opened it.

When I opened it, everything that I had feared from Alice's vision was coming true.

Naomi's room was empty. she must have gone literally in the last few minutes, because I could still smell her scent in her room.

I walked round her room hopelessly, knowing that she wasn't here. But there was a small part in my head that thought my daughter would appear our of no where and run into my arms.

I looked over to her chest of draws where all her clothes were kept. All the draws and been opened and closer had obviously been picked up in a hurry because they were all dangling over the side of the draws.

I looked over at the open window that was right above the garden. Naomi was small, but even the jump from her window to the ground wouldn't have been a problem for her.

I left Naomi's room and walked back downstairs where my family was waiting for me.

"She's gone. Her window is wide open, she must have jumped and ran into the forest." I told everyone with no emotion in my voice.

I didn't know what emotion I would have for a situation like this.

I was too much in shock about what had happened.

Emmett didn't need me to say anything else, he handed the baby to Jasper as he and rose ran out of the back door and into the forest.

We will get her back Edward. I promise you that.

Emmett thought as soon as he was out of the house.

His thoughts when it came to his niece were nothing but loving. He loved this little girl more than anything. Apart from Rose, but he loves Rosalie only a tiny bit more that Naomi.

"I have to get Bella to come home. I can't do this by my self" I said to Alice and Jasper. I handed Jasper the baby before I pulled out my phone.

I pulled my cell phone out of my pocket and dialled Bella's number.

We had literally just stopped having a conversation about 5 minutes ago, would she even pick up her phone.

After 5 rings of the Dialling tone she picked up the phone.

"Hello"

"Bella, you need to come home. Now!" I told her. I could feel my voice breaking as I told her to come home.

"Why Edward what's wrong?" she asked, her voice sounding panicky now.

I didn't answer right away. How could I tell the mother of my children that one of out children had run away and that the vampire who wanted her dead had out daughter?

"Edward you're scaring me! Tell me what is wrong Now!" she yelled the last part at me.

"Bella. Alice had a vision of Naomi on her own in a warehouse somewhere. We don't know where she is. But there was someone else in Alice's vision. Victoria" it took all my strength to tell her this.

I heard Bella take a sharp intake of breath before everything went quiet.

"Bella, Bella! Answer me. Bella!" I shouted over the phone.

"What do you mean she is gone?" Bella asked crying now.

"She ran away Bella. She has got it into her head that we don't love her anymore, because of the time we spend with Elizabeth and…" I didn't have change to finish talking before Bella spoke again.

"Im on my way home now. Please Edward keep looking for her" she begged.

"Emmett and Rose are doing that now. And I will be going as soon as I hang up. I love you Bella. We will find her. I promise" I told her.

And with that she hung up the phone.

As soon as the phone was back in my pocket, I went through the back door following Emmett and Rosalie leaving Alice and Jasper with the baby.

Bella's POV

Before I had hung of the phone talking to Edward, I was running to my car.

Why would she run away? Why did she think that we didn't love her any more?

I ignored my friend's concerned calls as I ran to my car. I hadn't told them why I had just left, but that was the last thing on my mind at the moment. All I was concerned about was getting home and finding my little girl.

I was a good 2 hours away from the house, so I had to put my foot down so that I could get home quickly.

I pushed the car as fast as it would go. I needed to get home.

I knew that Edward was looking for her and I prayed to god that he would find her.

Why had Victoria come back now? Edward had left me for nearly 6 year. Why had she decided to come back now and take the one thing that I loved so much?

I had stopped crying, but that was only because I had run out of tears.

I continued to drive as fast as I could. I was only an hour away now.

I wove in and out of the traffic that was on the highway because I didn't want to stop for anybody.

This had been the longest hour in my life! I had to get my baby back.

I knew that everyone was looking for her, but my mind couldn't help but wonder what would happen if they didn't find her. I couldn't let myself think about something like that, but the thought was always in the back of my mind. That thought caused a whole new wave of fear wrack through my body. My body found tears from somewhere and I began to again. It soon got to the point where I was In hysterics and I was starting to hyperventilate.

I pulled over to the side of the road, because I knew that if I continued to drive in the state that I was in, I would surly crash the car.

I looked around to see where I was, I was only half an hour away from the house now. I tried to pull myself together, but I couldn't.

The fear that I would not find my daughter again kept my body in the emotional state that it was in.

I wasn't sure how long I had been at the side of the road.

Could have been second, minute's even hours.

My body couldn't handle all this emotion anymore simply by crying. I needed to let all my fear out.

I screamed as loud as I could too see if it would help. It didn't, if anything it made it worse.

Every time that I took a breath out gut wrenching screams ripped through my chest and out of my mouth.

I was only aware that there was someone in the car with me and that their cold arms were wrapped around me, holding me close to their cold body.

I looked up at the person who was holding me, hoping that it would be Edward. but it was Alice. I knew that Edward was out looking for Naomi, but Alice's cold embrace wasn't the one that I needed right now.

As another scream ripped through my body, Alice started rocking back and forth.

"We will find her Bella. I promise. No one is going to stop looking until we have her back" Alice said still rocking me back and forth.

"She is a baby. Why would that bitch take my baby away from me? What has Naomi done to anyone to deserve being taken by her?" I said, finally starting to get my breathing back under control.

"Nothing Bella. She has done nothing. Which is why after we find her, Victoria is seriously going to pay for what she has put this family through" Alice all but growled.

I sat up from Alice's embrace, needed to drive again so that I could get home.

"I need to get back Alice. I need to find her." I said as I put the car into gear and started to drive again.

Even though it should have taken us 30 minutes to get back to the house, because I was driving the car as fast as it would go, we were back un around 10.

As soon as the car had stopped I opened the door and ran into the house.

"Edward. Edward!" I called through the house. He didn't answer, he must still be looking for Naomi.

I looked into the living room to see who was in there. Jasper was the only one in the living room. He was sitting on the sofa looking down at the floor. As I walked into the living room, I realised that Elizabeth was playing on there. I ran over to her and picked her up and hugged her close to my chest.

I fell to the floor with Elizabeth still in my arms.

Tears started to form and fall from my eyes.

Jasper was by my side before the first tear fell from my face. He put one hand around my shoulder and brought me close to his side. I started to cry again, but having Jasper around made me calm down a lot quicker.

"Why did she go Jasper?" I asked him.

"she thought you didn't love her any more. She thought your lives would be simpler if she wasn't here." He said as he rubbed my arm trying to sooth me.

Even though I knew what he was going to say, that was the only question that was going through my mind.

I moved slightly away from Jasper and handed him Elizabeth.

Jasper looked at me confused as I stood up and walked away. I didn't say anything as I left the room.

I walked up the stairs heading straight for Naomi's room. I don't know why, but I thought if I walked into her room she would appear out of no where.

When I got to her door, I opened it, taking in deep breaths as I did so.

When the door was opened I walked into her room and just stood there.

It was empty.

Her draws were open and clothes had been thrown everywhere.

I looked over at the window, which was wide open. That must have been how she got out of the house with out anyone noticing.

As I walked around her empty room, the realisation that my baby was gone hit me like a ton of bricks.

I walked over to the corner of the room where she kept her music stuff.

Sheet music.

Guitar

CD player, were all jammed into this corner. I pressed play on her CD player to see what she had been listening to last.

The lullaby that Edward had written for her come out of the speakers. As the sound came through the room the muscles in my legs gave in.

I fell to the floor and cried. Not just cried, I screamed. Every fibre in my body wanted me to go and fine her. but I couldn't do that. I was only human. I couldn't do any of the things that my family was out doing now.

Suddenly, I felt someone's cold arms wrapped around me. I knew it wasn't Alice this time.

I looked up and saw Edward trying to sooth me, by rocking me and saying "Shhhh" over and over again.

"Where is she Edward?" I asked.

"Everyone is still out looking for her. We will find her Bella!" he told me.

The fact that he hadn't answered my question upset me even more. They had been searching for nearly 3 hours now and obviously there was on sign of her anywhere.

I got up from Edward's embrace and walked towards the door.

"Bella, where are you going?" Edward asked. He was now standing in front of my blocking my way.

"I'm going to look for her Edward. I cant just sit here and do nothing!" I said through my teeth now. The pain that I was feeling from loosing my daughter had turned into angry.

"Love, that wouldn't help. I know that you want to be out there looking for her. But, Victoria obviously know what she is doing. If she doesn't want to be found by a group of 6 vampires. I doubt very much that you will find her on your own. Plus, it wouldn't help me. I would worry about you too much when I should be looking for our daughter. Please Bella, just stay here and be safe." He told me and he wrapped his arms around me and kissed the top of my head

"Edward. I need to be out there doing something. She is my baby. I cant just sit here and be the defenceless little human any more!" I all but yelled at him.

Then it came to me. A way that I could look for Naomi with out having Edward to worry about me.

It was perfect, he wouldn't have to sit around and protect me, I would be able to protect myself.

Edward had obviously caught on to what I was thinking because he let go of me and backed himself up against the door.

"Bella. No!" he said simply.

I looked into his eyes and told him what I needed him to do.

"Change me!"
