Chapter 2

Disoriented

BPOV

I was running.

Running so fast it felt like my feet were barely touching the ground. Or maybe they were just numb from me being barefooted and the ground being so cold beneath my feet.

Either way I knew that I had to keep going. To stop now would have meant death. I had to get away.

I could no longer stay there. So I packed a backpack of clothes among other items and ran away. Even though I knew the probable outcome, I still took my chances. Besides I would rather die knowing that I tried till the very end to survive then just stay there awaiting what I knew would eventually happen.

My feet pounded on the rooted ground below me.

To my surprise I managed to not trip, which I have no one to thank but God for that.

I risked a glance behind me and seen that my attacker was close to me. I pressed myself to go faster, but I was wearing down. The bag that I was carrying was making me lose my stamina fast.

I must have been running for more then forty-five minutes straight by now.

Still I mustered all the strength I had in me and picked my speed up.

My breathing was coming hard and fast. My chest heaving up and down. My heart drumming out of my chest, the beat of it echoing in my ears.

My arms along with the rest of my body was sore all over from me running into the small twigs that were sticking out in every direction.

Scraps and cuts covered my body. My muscles felt as if they were on fire and were being pulled apart.

It was dark and being in the woods with a canopy of leaves over my head from the trees growing into each other certainly made the darkness even more darker then I would have imagined.

I had made my escape at night.

I knew the darkness would better my chances, however I also knew that there was a good probability that I would be captured no matter when I decided to leave.

The forest surrounding me was silent.

Eerier silent.

There were no sounds of animals to be found. It was like they to sensed the peril that I was in and decided to have no part of it.

I looked back again and realized that I was alone.

I had lost him.

Panting and gasping for air I decided to hide behind a tree and breath oxygen back into my shriveled up lungs.

I could feel the sweat drip down my forehead even though the night was cold.

My tattered clothes were sticking to me due to the slick perspiration covering every square inch of me.

My breathing was still fairly loud.

I hated to do it, but I knew I had to. If I wanted to keep my speed I would have to lose the bag I was carrying.

Reluctantly I slid it off my shoulders and looked around for the best place on the forest floor to hide it.

I noticed there were some lefty branches that had fallen out of a tree and grabbed them to camouflage my bag.

After a few moments of covering my bag with the branches and regrouping I decided it was best to start to move again. I started running through the dark and was running past a huge tree when all the sudden two hands shot out and jerked me back.

I went plummeting to the ground when a massive blow hit me in the skull

His figure towered over me.

"You really shouldn't have tried to escape."

He said as he wagged his figure back and forth slowly. I could smell the alcohol on him and a faint scent of tobacco.

"No please!"

I was shaking my head and beginning to tremble.

He brought his hand up once more and…..

"NOOOOO!"

I jolted awake and broke out in sobs.

I tried to move, but Something was hindering me from doing so.

I looked down and noticed all the different IV's hooked to me in my arms.

Where am I?

"Shh! It's okay. You will be okay. Your safe now."

I looked over to where the voice was coming from and out of the one eye that I could actually see through there was a short black haired girl who said that as she pushed back on my shoulders to lay me back down in the bed. She then proceed to pull the covers back over my body.

"Jasper let Edward and Emmett know that she is awake."

"Okay Alice."

A blonde guy who was tall and had a southern accent said before he walked out the door.

It didn't take long for me to realize that I was in a hospital room. The lumpy pillows and uncomfortable bed along with the curtains and blaring TV gave that away.

Not to mention the needles that were stuck in me as if I were a pin cushion.

The question was…

How did I get here?

The blonde man entered the room followed by a big bulky guy with curly brown hair and a slender but fairly built man who had messy bronze colored hair.

The messy haired man walked up to the bed and looked at me.

"How are you feeling Miss?"

I just looked around the room and back at him speechless.

Who were these people?

"I am sorry I shouldn't have asked that. I am sure you have been better. My name is Edward. Edward Cullen. What's yours?"

He held out his hand to me.

I looked down at it and realized that I didn't know my own name.

I couldn't remember anything other then what I had just dreamed about and what happened when I had awoken from it.

I began to cry.

The girl known as Alice picked up my hand and kept telling me it was going to be alright.

In between my sobs I managed to speak in a weak whisper.

"I- I don't k-know m-my name. I d-don't remember any t-thing."

Alice then through her arms around me and began to rock me back and forth in a comforting motion as best she could.

My body was so sore from everything I had been through that even the slightest movement sent pain through my body.

I cried out in agony.

"Alice be careful with her."

The curly haired man said. He had stepped closer as if he wanted to help, but was unsure of what to do.

Alice then released me with a look of concern on her face.

"I am so sorry. I- I didn't mean to hurt her anymore then she already is."

She held her head down in humiliation.

"Its okay Alice. We know you were only trying to help."

Jasper came up behind her and rubbed her arm up and down trying to calm and comfort her.

My throat was sore and crying was doing nothing to help it, but the tears would not stop.

The feeling I felt of not knowing who I was, was indescribable. I felt fear, sadness, and worry.

What happens if I can never remember?

What if I am to go on living not knowing who I am or where I am from. Most importantly if I cant remember what happened to me in the past how am I going to be able to prevent it from happening to me again?

All these questions and more where popping in my head, but for some reason my brain was only repeating one of them over and over again..

How did I get here?

I was crying to much to notice that Jasper had left the room again and come back with a doctor.

The doctor assessed the situation by asking questions then he left the room only to return with a needle filled with clear liquid.

He released it through my IV and my eyes began to get droopy, the voices I heard started slurring and everything went black.

EPOV

After the fragile little women fell asleep from the sedative the doctor gave her I followed him out the room where I could discuss what was going on in private.

When I returned I noticed that all eyes where on me looking for some answers.

Alice was the first to speak.

"Okay Edward you're a doctor so we know you know what's going on with out even needing to talk to him. So spill!"

Sighing I ran my hand through my hair and started to speak.

"It appears that she is suffering from what we call amnesia. It was most likely due to the amount of injuries that her body took…. Mainly the blows to her head."

Alice brought her hand up to her mouth.

"You mean to tell me that this poor girl" using her delicate finger she pointed to the now sleeping patient. "Will never know who she is?"

"Not necessarily Alice. There are a number of procedures we can go through to try and help her remember, like therapy, but to tell you the truth with her being in that condition when we found her, I don't know if I want to help her remember that."

"So what are we going to do Edward we cant just continue to pump sedatives in her to avoid answering her questions because you know as well as I do that they are going to be asked."

"I know. The doctor has alerted the police to her condition and was going to ask them to put her picture on the news in hopes that someone will recognize her."

"Edward you cant let him do that!"

This time it was not Alice who spoke up, but Emmett.

"I know Em. I am not stupid. I told him that I would speak to the police. I explained to him that if the person who hurt her sees that she is still alive he may try and finish what he started and I am not going to let anything happen to her." I looked over at the injured girl noticing that she seemed to be in a peaceful slumber at the moment. "Who ever she is." I added though not loud enough for the others to hear.

EXOXOB

"Okay I understand where you are coming from and I think that we would be wise doing it this way. I don't want to see anything happen to her either the poor girl has been through enough."

Eric, the chief of police said as we discussed are options.

We finally agreed on just passing her picture around to police stations only.

Not to public.

If she was missing from somebody's life…. And there was no reason to assume she wasn't. Then by now they would have filed a police report and gave a description or a picture to help find her by.

Which meant that once the station that they filed under gets the fax with her picture they will have a match and be able to contact them with the good news of knowing where there loved one is.

"Well keep me post it with whatever you find Eric."

"Sure no problem."

He said as he shook my hand and grabbed his hat.

"Don't worry Edward we will find who ever did this to her."

He then walked out of the room with a photo of the sleeping girl in his hand.

I walked back from the hospital cafeteria to the room and sat in the chair next to the bed. I looked at her sleeping form. She was wrapped in bandages from head to toe. She was nothing but skin-and-bone and its even a wonder she was still alive when we found her. Her checks were sucked into her face and you could see her ribs. Her breathing was light like she was having trouble keeping air flowing to her lungs.

I not sure why, but something or someone was telling me to do everything in my power to protect this girl.

And I knew that I would do everything in my power to do just that.

I was so lost in looking at this women in front of me that I never even heard Alice come up behind me.

"Edward?"

She put her hand on my shoulder.

"What are you still doing here Alice? I told you to go home and get some rest."

"I know, but I cant."

She pulled a chair up next to me and sat down. Sighing she began to speak.

"I just don't feel right leaving her here all by herself. I mean I know you're here, but I feel as though I should be here to. I don't want her to wake up without me being here. I worried that I am going to miss something."

"I know what you mean Alice. When she first woke up and Jasper came to get me and Emmett we flew down that hallway. It was the best news that I had ever heard."

"You know Edward its times like these that really makes me grateful for the family and for the husband that I have. It makes me ashamed of myself that it takes me seeing how badly people get hurt on a daily basis for me to realize that. I mean I always knew that stuff like this happened, but to see how it can effect that person and the people around her really opens my eyes. To see a perfect stranger laying right here in front of me and barely able to breath…. It.. It makes me what to do something to help prevent this from happening to other women."

I looked over at Alice and seen a tear roll down here check. I collected her in my arms and held her.

"I know what you mean Alice. I know what you mean."

I could see right now that this not only effected me, but also the rest of my family. I never imagined that one girl had the power to change an entire family, but that's what she seemed to have done. She helped us realize just how blessed we were without even realizing it or meaning to.

Now I only hoped that we could help her.
