(Point of view: Bella)

The steady hum of the motorcycle continued to ring through her ears. The sun has come up and has fallen but she still hadn't stopped. Her determination to find him was too much and she was going to slow to make a good pace. Her eyes started to fall and she knew this time, she had to stop or she would loose her chance of finding him.

She slowed the bike down a bit more and drifted to a grassy area next to the road. The bike began to rattle and she jumped off and landed on the soft grass. (1) She got up and walked to the whining engine and shut it off.

The moon was high above her head and the stars were very bright. She walked over to a tree and lay down, covering herself from the cold with a blanket she brought with her. She stared into the sky and let sleep drift her off into restless sleep. Edward continued to whisper across her mind, tossing and turning she felt lonely and abandoned.

The next morning she was awaken by light droplets falling on her face. She adjusted her eyes to the sudden brightness and stretched her sore muscles. The little droplets started to fall at a faster pace and much thinker than before. It was starting to rain and this couldn't be good.

Bella packed away everything she had taken out the night before and ran over to her bike, resting on the soft grass covered in mildew. She picked in up and kick started it, making the engine roar to life. Once she was ready, she raced down the empty road to continue her journey, her frantic search for her love, in the now heavy rain soaking all her stuff in he back pack and her clothes.

After another two hours of riding, she spotted a black car parked on the side of the road. As she got closer to it, she noticed it was a Volvo with heavily tinted windows. The car looked exactly like Edwards. She slowed he bike down enough to jump of safely and walked over to the abandoned car. It was defiantly his car.Her heart tightened. Edward was so close yet so far.

She dragged her bike to lay it next to his car, hoping it wouldn't get stolen. She could take the bike through the forest, walking would be best. She walked straight into the dark shady forest for the rest of the day scratching her legs and arms, and falling frequently. She didn't know where she was going or if she was even going in the direction of Edward but she kept going.

After two days of walking at a slow pace, she couldn't feel her feet anymore. The rain had soaked her socks and had caused her feet to crack. The constant walking left her legs numb and the lack of sleep kept piling up. Her food supply was running very low causing her to loose as much as fifteen pounds since the start of her journey while her sense of direction was lost in her dream-like haze.

On the third day she decided to take another little break to eat the last of her food. She ate her canned beans while her taste bud tried to reject the foul taste. She fell to the floor with a thump wincing at a quick pain in her head, but the all the pain was gone. The worries and everything the mattered before didn't seem so important anymore. Her limbs lay numb next to her as she faded into complete nothingness.

(Point of view: Jaiden)

Now was that time of the month, (2) that time he hated but needed in order to keep control. He took his beast-like stance and sniffed the air for any sign of deer, bear, or anything he could take for his meal. Once the smell of a deer near the water hole hit his senses, his eyes diluted and turned a pitch black color as he sped through the forest in the direction of the innocent animal at lightning speed. He paused behind a tree and watched his prey drink calmly from the water hole. Then he zoomed right next to it and sunk his fangs into its tender neck.

The animal thrashed violently, fear imprinted into its eyes. He drank some of its blood until it stopped thrashing a lay limp in his arms. He detached his mouth and placed a suction tube on the open wound. He sat patiently as the machine he invented sucked the blood out of the deer for him to store in his 'blood' boxes.

Once it was done, he unhooked the machine and strapped it to his back again. He took his beast-like stance again, his eyes turning the pitch black color as before and sniffed the air. A sweet fragrance hit his senses and he sprinted towards it. Searching for the sweet smell, he became intoxicated by it. His senses were ten times more vigilant and everything seemed so prominent. All his senses focused on that one sweet smell.

As he got closer, he noticed the beating of the things heart got slower. He walked at a normal pace and around a tree ready to latch himself onto the injured animal. He walked around the tree and gasped at the sight that lay before him.

A girl, laying on the floor, her brown hair a tangled mess and her arms cut and swollen by her side. The shirt she was wearing was soaked and had a slash on the side. He crouched next to the body, calming himself and observed her. She got lost in the forest he thought. The girl was breathing jagged breaths and Jaiden continued to hear her heart beat decrease. This girl was going to die. He suddenly felt bad for her to die in such a harsh way; searching for something she thought was just out of reach. (3)

He brushed the hair out of her face and neck and looked into the young girls beautiful face. He rested his lips on the light pulse in her neck and lightly bit down puncturing the delicate skin.

Just the thought of drinking another human's blood made him want to gag. He let go of her neck and could already see the effects of the venom but noticing her hands clenched into a fist and her breathing more jagged and her face drenched in cold sweats.

He grabbed everything that looked like it belonged to her and pushed it into an empty backpack that lay next to all the contents. He slung the bag across his back and picked up the girl with no trouble at all. With lightning speed and an awesome sense of direction, he made it back to his house in about 5 minutes. (In a normal humans pace it would have taken 30 minutes,) He walked inside it and through the hall way to a vacant room. He placed her in the blankets knowing that soon enough she would feel like she was engulfed in flames. He left her in the room to unload the meal for the month in the pouches. He heard giggling behind him and quiet footsteps approaching.

"Jaiden?" charlotte said walking up to him, a huger smile on her face. "You're home!" She jumped into his arms and hugged him tightly. "I heard you come in and I just wanted to say 'Hi!'" she said overly exited.

He smiles back at her, "Yup! I'm home. I've been out hunting." He said

" Charlotte?" a male voice chimed in through the house, joined with quiet padding on the floor. "Did you tell him?" Edward cam into the kitchen with a slight grin.

"Nope! I wanted you to tell him." she smiled and skipped to her boyfriends. She planted a gentle kiss on his cheek and continued to skip away.

"You know, you should show your affection away from me. I still consider her as my daughter." he said with a smug grin.

"I know."

"What is she so exited about?" Jaiden asked, preoccupied with his monthly meal.

"I asked her if she would like to spend a week at a beach house down south." He said feeling guilty for even thinking about leaving him alone in a deserted forest.

"She said yes?" he asked finally turning back around.

He nodded, "She's very exited about it. I just thought it would do her good if she got to see different scenery. Will you be okay with it? We don't have to go."

"No!" Jaiden said. He was truly happy that Edward has grown onto Charlotte. The horrible smell of blood she brought home everyday was now gone and she finally happy. "Go have fun. I found a new 'pet' today."

"I smelled her. She smells familiar but I can't lay a finger on it. I would have never thought the great and wonderful Jaiden would even sink his fangs into human flesh." he said with a mocking smile.

"Ha, Ha!" He gave a sarcastic laugh, "By the way, I found her dying in the forest. I couldn't just watch her die. Just go out and have some fun. When you get back you could see a new vampire in the house."

"Of course. Well I'm going to pack now." He turned around and walked out of the kitchen, obvious excitement panted all over his face.

Jaiden finished up with his food and filled a glass of water up. He had some food in his refrigerator that he never touched, but when he had tournaments with his video game buddies, he had to have a 'normal-looking' house. He didn't really trust that food so he just brought the glass of water to the girl's new room.

After a while Edward and Charlotte left the house after saying his goodbyes, leaving him alone with the strange girl. He hoped the venom would settle and that he saved her. He sat next to her and watched her squirm in her bed trying to fight off the pain. Her eyes continued to scrunch up and she let out harsh jagged breaths, and Jaiden just sat next to her, watching her and keeping her company.
