Chapter 5

BPOV

"Mom, I am sorry I was talkin to my friends and when I turned around he was gone." Seth cries latching on to me.

"It's alright baby, where is your sister?" I ignore that horrible feeling in my gut.

"With grandma and grandpa," he points in their direction.

Edward picks up Seth and we walk over to where our parents are talking to the police. "Dad what happened here, how did he get away?"

"Bells I have no idea, we were all over here on the bench talking, when I last looked at him he was on the swings. Then Esme asked where Billy was and when I looked again he wasn't there. We did have them all in our sites we really did. I have no idea what happened."

Edward walks over "Bella I don't see him anywhere," he turns to his mother "Mom what in the world went on here?"

"I'm not sure dear he was there one second then the next he was gone. I really don't know it's like he disappeared into thin air." She starts to sob. "I am so sorry I should have been paying closer attention. I should have been closer; I just thought that they would be fine they said this is where you sit when you guys come here. I just tried to do what they said you did."

"No, Esme, Billy is my wonderer; it's not your fault." I try to sooth her. After a minute I see my Dad talking to Eric, I hand Esme off to Edward and Carlisle and go over to them.

"…could have been kidnapped…" I catch Eric say.

"Eric really this is me, who would want to mess with my kids, no would take them from me. I am good terms with everyone here."

"I understand that Bella and as your Dad pointed out after what happened with James I don't think anyone would dare mess you with your kids but you do need to think that he could have been kidnapped, maybe by someone who wants …you." He rests his hand on my shoulder.

I shrug it off, I always feel strange when he touches me. "Eric, just find my son, please" I beg him. "I don't care what you have to do, what it takes, or really who it is for that matter I just want my son back." I can't hold it in anymore, I start crying.

Before I know it I feel a strong sense of security as Edward's arms wrap around me. "Calm down Bella, we will find him."

"Bella, I need you to think of all the places he likes to go to." Eric says then turns to my Dad. "Chief, what was the boy..."

"Billy, you know his name…call him by his name." Edward snaps.

Eric corrects himself, quickly, "Billy, what clothes was Billy wearing today?"

"He has on dark blue jeans and a black t-shirt with one of them transformers on it…" his eyes squint as he tries to think.

To help my dad out and because I am desperate to find my son I start to rattle off transformers. "Ironhide…. Megatron…Starscream…The Twins…Optimist Prime…Bumble…"

"BUMBLE BEE!...that's it, it's the yellow one that's always with that boy…Bumble Bee." My dad raises his voice.

"Is it the one he brought from home or did you guys get it?"

"No, we didn't get them any clothes." My Dad shakes his head.

"Mom," Edward calls out, making his mother look up in our direction, "did you guys get the kids clothes."

She shakes her head so I turn back around; I know what shirt he has on. "Okay, I know that shirt. It's all black with yellow around the collar, and at the ends of his sleeves, and the picture of Bumble Bee is all distorted looking, from being washed so much. The design is a chipped and pealing. There is yellow stitching down the sides too, and it says 'Bumble Bee" in huge yellow letters. It's his favorite shirt, he wears it every chance he gets." I rush out the description.

Eric relays the description into his shoulder walkie-talkie. "Bella, I am going to go help look he knows what my car looks like and you know him he will run to grandpa." My Dad says.

"Chief you can't be involved…" Eric tries to say.

My Dad interrupts him, "Eric do you like your job?" my dad asks sugary sweet, but you hear the warning in his voice.

"Yes, Sir, point taken Chief." Eric steps back and bows his head. "I will head out too, I know what he looks like, and I am a cop so he will know me as a safe person. I will bring him back, Bella.

My dad quickly walks to his car, Edward hot on his heels. I watch them as they pull away, saying a silent prayer that they find my youngest child. Esme, my mother and Carlisle walk over to me as I hear someone call my name.

I turn around and see Alice, with Sammy in her arms, Jasper, and Leah with J.J in her arms, walking up to me, and then Rosalie and Emmett getting out of their car. "SETH!" I spin back around and there is my son standing before me.

"Mom I swear it want me." He holds his hand up at chest level in defense.

"It was me dear." Esme speaks up.

Before I can respond Leah starts talking "Bella, any word yet?" I shake my head no.

Rosalie and Emmett come, speed walking, up to me. Rose comes right to my side and wraps me in a hug. By the time we break apart the guys are huddled together and talking while all the women are crowded me, Seth and Amanda.

Then something hits me Amanda hasn't said a word this while time. That means she knows something, whenever she is quiet she waits for someone to ask the questions. I think it's because she doesn't want to get into trouble, but I'm not sure. I walk over to my little girl and crouch down grabbing her in a hug. She startles me when she starts to talk without being coached.

"Mom I am so sorry I should have made sure he was okay, before I went to play again. I told him to stay away from that man and he didn't listen, he said it was okay because he had on a uniform. I let him play on the swings, and I didn't stay with him. I am so sorry mom."

"Sweet heart it is okay, but this is important. What man are you talking about? What did he look like, what kind of uniform did he have on?" I try to keep the panic from my voice.

"He was here, I saw him." She looks around. "I don't want him to hurt me. He told me to be quiet or Little Bill would get hurt. He said he wanted to be their daddy and that this was the only way you would listen to him. He scared me mom, he really, really, scared me. I don't like him. Why does everyone want to hurt my brothers?"

"No one will hurt him okay. We will find him. Who was it Amanda, I need to know who it was." I grasp her hands.

"I don't know his name, but he has on a uniform like grandpa Swan's." She starts to cry all over again and shuts down. I look around to find Seth; he is usually pretty good about calming the other two down. I have no luck, but before I can respond to my other son missing Carlisle distracts me.

"Bella, Emmett, Jasper, and I are going to ride around to see if we can see him. He knows all of us and our cars he'll come running if he sees us. Besides you have taught him to find someone he knows and trusts."

Then it hits me. A uniform like grandpa Swan's, Billy trusted him enough not to be afraid, he trusted him.

"It's a cop's uniform…" I muse.

"What" Carlisle asks confused.

"It's an officer's uniform," I feel myself start to panic, "Oh my god Carlisle whoever has my son is dressed like an officer! What am I going to do?" I feel my chest tighten.

"Emmett, come here" he bellows, Emmett instantly rushes over. "She said he has a police uniform on."

"No Amanda said it was a uniform like Grandpa Swan's" I say through gasps. "Seth, where is Seth?" I look around. "SETH" I call out his name.

"Right here Mom." He steps from behind my mother and Esme."

"Seth did you see Billy talking to anyone, while you guys were playing?" he pauses to think, then shakes his head.

"No one besides that cop" He shakes his head frowning.

"What cop baby?"

"That one that I told you gives me the hebbie- jeebies." He shudders.

"OH MY GOD! Where's my phone I need my Dad and Edward," I start to pat my pockets, and I can't find my damn phone. "Emmett, any one get Edward and my Dad on the phone NOW, I know who has my son. Damn it!"

EPOV

Charlie and I take off to his cruiser, as Eric goes to get in his car. We head off in opposite directions, hoping to cover more ground.

"He is only a little boy he couldn't have gone too far. I mean Jesus he is only six." I start to ramble.

"Edward, we will find him. It will be okay. I know Bella and she will not leave that park until Billy is brought back. So if he wanders back that way, Bella will call you."

"Bella has taught all of the kids what to do, he will be fine…he will be fine…he will be fine…" I start repeating over and over to myself. That is one thing Bella is really firm on. She is always asking the kids what to do if they get separated from us.

There is one thing I don't understand…why would he go that far. I know he wonders but not that far…

After a while I have an idea…

"Charlie let me out, I'm gonna go into all these shops and see if they have seen him and let them know if they see him to call one of us."

"Good thinkin kid." He quickly pulls over and lets me out. "I am going to continue on and see if I can't find him, I will be back up this way after a while to get you, call me if you find him or get through all of these places." I nod and he pulls back out and takes off.

I spend a while rushing in and out of places asking if they have seen my son. All anyone has to say is 'no but I will keep my eyes open', like he is damn lost dog. I start to get irritated when Charlie pulls back up.

"Any luck?" I shake my head as defeat starts to overwhelm me. "Right…Well get in, we'll keep cruising around two sets of eyes are better than one."

We are looking for about an hour when my phone and Charlie's phone start to ring. I know from my ring tone its Emmett. Charlie and I answer at the same time.

"Hello"

"Edward…" its Bella and she sounds panicked.

"Bella? What's wrong did you find him? Is he alright?" I rush to get the answers I need.

"No, Edward we don't have him" I hear her struggle to keep control, "but we did get some new information. I know who it is…"

Kidnapper POV

"Hey, Billy come here?" I motion for him to come to me. I watch Seth and make sure that he doesn't come over, that kid really causes a problem when I am around.

He comes over to me "Hey I know you, you're a police man." he gets excited.

I talk to him about his mom and how things are at home. All of a sudden that little girl comes over and interrupts us. She beckons him back to the park where he is in the close watchful eye of that idiot's parents, and the chief and his wife. I wait until the girl leaves and is far enough away before I call him back.

"Hey I have an idea, let's play together in my play house. I know your mom so I can call her and tell her I have you."

"Okay, let me tell my grandmas and grandpas where I am going so they don't worry."

"NO! ...I mean no I will have your mom call them too so they know." I take his hand.

"But mom says it's rude to just leave without saying good bye." He looks back to the bench where they are all sitting.

Damn it I need to get this kid out of here.

"It's okay I will explain it to your mom, you won't get into trouble. I'll make sure of it. Now let's go play with my toys."

He looks back again then up at me, I have always wanted a son. "You sure I won't get in trouble?" he asks I see the innocents in his eyes and the need to be a good boy for his mother.

"I will take all the blame is Bella gets mad, okay?" I tug him gently I don't want to hurt him, that's not what a father does.

He nods and we head off to my car. I let him sit in the front seat because kids like that sort of thing, and I know Bella would be too afraid of him getting hurt to allow something like this. We drive to my hunting shack. When I let him out he asks about the toys and I take him inside and right to the room I made up for him and his brother. He gasps at all the toys I have laying around. I didn't know what his favorite toys where so I got a little of everything, starting with those cheap G.I. Joes all the way to video games, he looks at the movies then rushes over to the transformers I have gotten.

"Wow you have transformers that is so cool, I love them." He picks a few up and moves to the center of the room to play.

"Okay listen, big guy, I am going to go call your mom to let her know where you are, so no one worries. I'll be back soon. Kay?"

"You won't go far right? I can't be left home alone yet." He looks worried.

"Nope won't be far and won't be long, you won't even know I'm gone." I pat his head and leave, shutting the door behind me. I know he won't be able to get out because the only way out of that room is by someone opening that door. I have to make sure he is safe; I don't need him getting lost in the woods.

Now to cover my tracks…

I watch Bella cry for her son, I want to badly to hold her and comfort her and tell her 'it will all be alright. We will be together one big happy family, soon.' But I don't I just watch it all unfold until I can find the time to get away again.

I rush back to my shack, and open the door. The kid is so engrossed in his playing he hasn't even noticed I am standing here. I smile and shake my head. I leave the door open and head out to cook him some food.

Kids are always hungry right?

"Hey Mr. Police man I need to potty."

"Oh, uh… okay. Well it's in that room, it's the blue door. Do you need help?" I say a silent prayer that he can do it alone.

"No, I'm a big boy" he rolls his eyes, just like his mother does when she is irritated. My heart jumps a beat when I see it.

Thank you god. I think to myself for not having to help him.

We sit down together and eat. I start to ask him about Bella's boyfriend, the all mighty Edward Cullen. This boy is just as brain washed as his mother. All he does his sing this man praises. I will fix that; they will see he is not all that great. I am better for them than he is, or will ever be. I will have two sons and a beautiful woman by my side in due time.

All I have to do now is bide my time and keep moving forward. I think getting that other boy may be a little harder, but we will just have to wait and see. All I have to do is find his weak spot now. Something tells me it is right here with me.

"So when will I be going back home?" Billy asks me.

"Well not for a while your mom said that she had to take a trip and asked if I would keep you until she gets back and I told her it wouldn't be a problem. So looks like me and you get to play together for a while. Does that sound like fun?"

"Yeah, but you aren't playing with me, you are too busy." He looks down at his food.

"Well, if your done eaten then we can get to playing." I respond.

His face lights up. "I'm done can we go play now?"

"Yeah what do you want to do?"

"Can we play outside?"

"Uhh" I'm still not so sure he won't run off, "it's too cold how about we play with those transformers you were plain with before."

"Okay" he hops down and put the dishes in the sink, and then I follow him into his bedroom.

"Before we play I want to show where stuff is, so you know." He nods and stands next to me. "Well you know this is the bathroom," I open the door "and this is the closet and there are already clothes in there for you so we don't need to worry about that." I point to the closet, "and this is your bed." I point to the bed with the G.I. Joe sheets on it.

"Can I have Bumble Bee sheets while I'm here?"

"Uhh…sure I will pick some up tomorrow." He smiles up at me.

"Whose bed is that?" he points to the bed with books on the sheets?

"Oh that would be your brothers."

"Oh, so he will be coming to play too?" I nod "When?"

"Soon big guy, soon. So how do we do this transformer thing?" I distract him from any more questions.

We sit down and start to play. I go through the motions because my mind is reeling with how to get his brother here next.

Okay, I know it is short but I just couldn't make it longer without it getting boring. Do you think you know who the kidnapper is? Let me know your ideas in a review…
