Okay I know I know. It's been more then a month and I am so sorry!!! My school schedule was all messed up and I had to keep going back to the school to fix it and I had band camp too. And school, school has been harsh, and I have been stressing over drivers Ed and French so they have had my full attention really. And… I haven't exactly been on the computer a lot lately, I get in trouble a lot.

And I am very sorry Jen, I know how appalled and upset you are about this.

Alright down to business.

As I last left off Bella is now with Jacob *screams while hitting computer* and Edward is in a crumpled pile of pity at the moment.

Now, lets get this party started. I will do my best.

As always,

Read,

Review,

And enjoy!!!!!

"Come on Edward," Alice urged, trying to gently get him onto his feet.

"She can't be gone," Edward whispered, the hand holding the ring shaking almost violently now.

"Edward you need to relax, you're starting to scare Marietta," Alice whispered.

Edward looked up, turning toward where Esme stood, holding Marietta as tears spilled from her eyes. He slowly got up and walked over, easing his fussing daughter out of Esme's arms. He carried her upstairs and set her down into the crib, smiling painfully he kissed her forehead, whispering to her sweet little things to help her fall back asleep and headed back down to the living room.

"So what am I going to do now Alice? You saw what Bella wrote."

"It doesn't make sense," Alice argued, "We all could see how crazy she was about you, and I am positive that that vile Jacob Black was the one to take her, he must be pulling some sort of strings to keep her there."

"But Alice you saw what she wrote, and she even enclosed the ring I gave her-"

"Edward," Carlisle interrupted, "Alice does have a point, Jacob has ways of getting what he wants when he wants it, and we all could see from what happened at the wedding that he wants Bella."

Edward stopped to look at Carlisle, hope dimly shining in his eyes.

"You are allowed to go anywhere you want within the castle," Jacob spoke, wrapping his arm around Bella's waist, "but if you go beyond the castle walls you will not live to see another day, are we clear?"

Bella nodded numbly, trying her best not to jerk out of Jacob's grasp as he led her to the kitchen area.

"RACHEL!" Jacob roared, causing Bella to jump.

A young lady with long brown hair and blue eyes (AN: I have no idea if this is right) came out of the kitchen.

"Yes sir?" she inquired.

"See to it that my Bella here is kept entertained and well fed, or there will be consequences," he answered darkly.

Rachel nodded, "Yes sir."

Jacob smiled and looked down at Bella, "Well I must be heading out for now, I will be back tonight my dear," he spoke, leaning down towards Bella's face.

Bella fought back the urge to spit in his face and quickly turned her head so his lips only hit her cheek.

Satisfied, Jacob turned and left. When he was finally out of sight Bella retched what little food she had in her stomach onto the kitchen floor.

Rachel came over and gingerly held her hair out of her face while rubbing Bella's back. When Bella finished Rachel quickly went and grabbed a towel from the sink, handing it to Bella.

Bella gave her a weak smile, "Thank you," she said softly.

Rachel smiled, "It's not a problem, why don't you go get off your feet while I clean this up."

Bella stood up and quickly went into the dining area, and took a seat. A few minutes later Rachel came back out and sat down across from her.

"How do you do it?" Bella inquired, "How do you put up with that horrible being?"

Rachel gave her a sad smile, "He wasn't always all bad."

Bella looked at her in disbelief. Rachel gave a small chuckle, "He was sweeter when he was younger, such a kind boy, but unfortunately our father didn't like sweet."

"That's so sad. Wait, you said 'our father'?"

Rachel nodded, "Jacob's my younger brother."

Bella stared in at Rachel in shock, "Your brother?"

She nodded, "Yes, when our mother died only a few years after Jacob was born father was devastated, he couldn't accept the fact that she was gone. Soon he became very angry, he began to consider all women incompetent and only good for two things, making children and cleaning. So Rebecca and I became servants in our own home."

"That's so sad, I can't believe he would do something like that. Is Rebecca your sister?" Bella said.

Rachel nodded, "Yes, but she's not with us anymore, a man came to our castle one day and they fell in love, she however was not allowed to leave this castle so they eloped, they live very far away now. She wanted to take me with her, but I couldn't put burden her with having to care for me."

"Wow," Bella whispered, her fingers unconsciously toying with her necklace.

Rachel noticed this, "Did Edward give you that necklace?"

"Oh, no he didn't," Bella answered, surprised, "I got it from someone else, it's a bit of a secret really," she finished uncomfortably.

"Oh, it's very pretty," Rachel commented.

Bella gave a small smile, "It is."

Then it hit Bella, an idea, a fool proof idea to get herself out of this place.

Rachel noticed the sudden gleam of hope shining in Bella's chocolate orbs, "What's wrong?"

She looked at Rachel, "Rachel there is something you should know about me…"

"So are we clear with the plan?" Edward asked, looking around the room.

Carlisle and Alice came back with Edward to the castle, leaving Esme to watch Marietta.

"Yea man," Jasper nodded, holding Alice tighter to his side, "the plans nearly foolproof."

Edward Sr. nodded in agreement, "But it will still take time, at least two or three days."

"Ok then," Edward concluded, "We leave tomorrow night, take to the west as to not be seen and attack Black Castle in three days."

"You're a swan?" Rachel said, astonishment written on her face.

Bella nodded, "When I take this necklace off I become my original being, a swan, but as long as I have this necklace on I stay a human."

"Does my brother know about this?" Rachel asked, becoming serious.

Bella shook her head, "He doesn't, so my plan should work. And, I want you to come with me."

Rachel once again took on a look of surprise, "You want me to come? I don't know if I can, I mean it would be dangerous."

Bella nodded, "Yes it will be, that's why we are going to need a few days to get this all planned out and ready. It shouldn't take more then three days."

"Three days it is then."
