Chapter 8: Victoria's Sister???

Bella POV

I opened my eyes and saw red eyes staring down at me. "Ah!!" I scrambled backwards, away from whoever was looking down at me.

"Victoria!! Why do you have to pick such stupid humans???"

"Shut up Holly!! James picked this one before he…" Victoria trailed off, leaving the sentence unfinished.

"Yeah… but still," Holly and Victoria continued to fight. Meanwhile I looked at this new vampire, Holly. She had red-orange hair that was more orange than red and she also had freckles. Of course, she had bright red eyes, stupid human-eating vampires.

Victoria eventually walked in the room. (AN: they were arguing through a wall) "Holly, I'm older than you so shut up!!"

"Oh wow, a whole 5 minutes. Big deal."

"Well either way I'm your older sister, so SHUT UP!!!"

"Whoa, you're sisters???" That was a new one. They both looked at me, startled that I had talked.

"Well duh," Holly said, "I told you that you picked a stupid one Vicky."

"Shut up!!!" Victoria lunged at Holly, so I took the opportunity to get away. I quietly got up and ran out the door as fast as I could without tripping. I didn't look back. I was too afraid to look back incase they had noticed me running and were following me. When I looked around me in the street, I gasped. I had been in an empty warehouse down the street from where I had blacked out. Why nobody found me, I had no idea, but I wasn't about to waste time thinking. I ran down the street to the busy part of town. Again I saw a silver Volvo, but I didn't bother hoping. The car pulled up next to me.

"Bella, get in." That was the one voice that I had been waiting to hear for a long time.

"EDWARD!!!" I jumped into the car and hugged him. I didn't even notice we were moving until I sat up.

"Bella put on your seat belt. I don't want you getting hurt."

"Okay," I said as I buckled my seatbelt obediently.

"Bella, where have you been? Nobody could find you yet you were here the whole time?"

I sighed and told him everything I remembered. I hesitated when I got to the part about Holly.

"Bella, what is it? What are you keeping from me?"

I hesitated a minute longer, but I finally answered him. "There's another vampire named Holly. She's Victoria's sister."

"WHAT?!?!?!?" He slammed on the brakes and I was thrown against the seatbelt. "Ow," I gasped, out of breath.

"Sorry Bella. I… damn it! What's with all of the vampires being out to get you? Ugh!" Edward then started to drive again. We were at my house a minute later, but we drove right past it.

"Edward! You just passed my house!"

"Yes, I know. I'm taking you to the police station to see Charlie. He's really worried about you Bella."

"Oh, okay." We were soon at the police station. I got out and started to walk towards it. Edward grabbed my arm when we were a few feet from the door.

"Bella, do you really feel like facing Charlie right now?"

"Um… no."

"Okay," Edward said as he picked me up. "Stay still and act like you're asleep."

"Okay." I settled into his arms and hoped that it looked lick I was asleep.

"Edward? Oh my gosh! What's wrong with Bella?!?!?!?" I could hear the edge of hysterics in his voice.

"Sh, she's just sleeping. I found her in Port Angeles. She fell asleep on the way here."

"Is she okay?" I could hear the worry in his voice and it almost made me want to 'wake up'. Almost.

"I don't know," Edward responded honestly. "I think so, but I'm going to take her to Carlisle, just to make sure she's okay. Is that okay with you Charlie?"

"Yes, of course. Call me when she's ready to come home."

"Okay Charlie. Carlisle will call you later and tell you when she can come home."

"Thank you so much Edward."

"No problem." Then I could feel Edward turn and walk back towards the car. As soon as I felt Edward set me down on the seat I bolted upright. "Are you all really back?"

"Well, I have as feeling that Alice has had a vision of this by now, so I'm guessing that they're all back."

"Oh," I said, "That works." We drove in silence for the rest of the ride. When we pulled up to the house, Edward stopped the car. A split second later he was at my door. Then he picked me up.

"Edward! I'm fine. Really, I am perfectly capable of walking."

"I know, but it's more fun to carry you. And this way I don't have to worry about you tripping." I sighed; I knew there was no point in arguing with him. The moment we walked into the house, Edward set me down on my own two feet. "BELLA'S HERE! YAY!" At that point Alice came running down the stairs at vampire speed. There was no doubt in my mind that the outburst had come from her. She was soon hugging me.

"Alice…can't…breath." Alice let go of me and put me down gently. "Opps. Sorry Bella."

"It's okay Alice." When I looked behind her, I saw the rest of the family, Rosalie included. "Um…hi?" I said, trying to break up the silence. After that Esme, then Emmett came to hug me. Rosalie glared at me from her spot and Jasper, of course, kept his distance. After we were done with all of the hugging, Edward pulled me upstairs to Carlisle's study. Carlisle was already there, waiting for us. Edward set me down on the couch as Carlisle closed the door. Carlisle looked at me with worry on his face. It was then that I realized that I hadn't seen myself in a mirror yet. I was sure that my face was badly bruised.

Carlisle started to gently probe my face with his fingers. I winced when he touched where Victoria had slapped me, and again when he touched the back of my head where it had hit the concrete. He continued to check me over, finding more bruises as he went. He finally told me that I was dehydrated and should probably eat something.

He left the room and soon returned with a couple of pills and a glass of water. I quickly swallowed the pills and guzzled the rest of the water.

Carlisle then left the study, probably to give Edward and me some time alone to catch up with everything that had happened.
