EPOV

I wanted to kill Tanya myself. She didn't deserve to be living after what she had thought. Only Alice's warning kept me from attacking her then and there. Her vision scared me – Bella laying on the floor, cold and lifeless, her eyes still moving, searching for something, me probably.

I couldn't shake the feeling that I was completely helpless, that if I even tried to help her, it would end up in me hurting her more than helping. I didn't know what feeling was worse – the helplessness over not being able to help Bella, or the worry that Bella would make one wrong move and end up like that cold, permanently frozen girl on the ground.

I knew the worry was unnecessary, though. Tanya tore her own arm off without Bella having to anything. I didn't get it though, Bella seemed to be this person with no reason to fight for anything, she hated violence, but when it came to fighting, she looked like she had been practicing for years, not just fighting without any notice. I thought – worried actually – that Bella would do something drastic, but I didn't see that happening.

She will die. I will make sure of that. She doesn't deserve him. I do. She's nothing, he never loved her. I was fuming. How dare Tanya try something like that, and to think she would get away with it! I was about to go over and show her myself I never did or would love her, when she went flying through the air. I was appalled, I just stood there and stared at the place Tanya had just been.

I was vaguely aware that Alice and Jasper went over to help burn her, but they didn't do anything. I walked over slowly, sickened by the thoughts of Bella being dead at any second. I took the lit match and threw it on the pile of body parts that used to be Tanya.

Alice and Bella were talking for a minute. "Edward, are you okay? You looked mad."

"No, I'm not okay. You couldn't hear her Bella. Hear what she wanted to do to you, and me, not being able to do anything. If I did she would have killed you, Alice saw that." I couldn't explain to her the pain of seeing her dead on the ground, with Tanya still roaming around. I couldn't picture it.

"She's gone now. Don't worry, she can't interrupt us anymore." Those words made if final, like everything was going to be perfect. I doubted that. Bella was always a magnet for any danger, but as long as she was safe now, I would enjoy it.

"How did you do it? She was an excellent fighter, much more skilled than you should be. I don't think you've had any fighting training." She bit her lip, looking up at me with guilty eyes. "Did you?" It was times like these I wished I could read her mind.

"I guess I kind of left that out of my story. I'm sorry. I just didn't want you to be worried about something that happened a long time ago. There was this – this monster down south. I had to take care of the problem. She was creating vampire armies to control the land. I took lessons from her, pretending to help her and left when it became too much. I didn't think it was that important."

"Why didn't you tell me? I could've been just the tiniest bit less worried when you where fighting her." I looked at her, not really wanting her to answer the question.

"I know. I just didn't want the concern you would've had if I told you earlier."

"Guys, I hate to break it to you, but you're not alone." Alice. Could she be more annoying? "And I want to know how Bella did that throwing-Tanya-into-the-air-thing." I looked at Bella for the answer.

"I don't really know. I've never done that before. I just sort of wished she would back up and then she went flying through the air. I don't know how to explain it." I thought she had the power of telekinesis, but we would have to ask Carlisle.

"Come on, Bella. We have to celebrate!" She looked so excited, while Bella didn't.

"Not right now, Alice. I want to be with Edward." She wanted to be with me instead of out celebrating.

BPOV

I couldn't understand it. I thought I did well fighting against Tanya, but the look on Edward's face didn't show any of that. He looked broken, like he didn't think he would be able to survive. I wondered about the cryptic remark he gave me. She would have killed you. Would have, she didn't, though.

I didn't know what to except when it was over. Would I be the one dying on the ground, in a pile of burning ashes? Or would I be the one getting hugged against my will? I didn't expect Edward to look so… heartbroken. I couldn't read his mind, but this one time, I wished I could.

How would Tanya ever get away with that? How would I let her? To think, that I trusted her before this! She almost killed my reason for living. I don't know what I would do if anything happened to her.
