The first thing I'd like to say is I'm sorry this took me so long to post. I've been sick the last two weeks and wasn't on the computer at all. The second thing is that this is written in the POV of Jasper, just so no one gets confused. Okay, I'm done.

Chapter 4

The evil one walked out of the woods, shortly followed by a girl. She was small in size, probably no taller than my beloved. Her skin was that of a Saudi Arabian; abnormally dark for a vampire, though it still had that unmistakable paleness that cursed us.

I had no idea what she had done to Emmett. He looked like a cracked flowerpot or something. For the first time since he had been changed, he looked dead. She had been the one to do this to my brother; and she would pay, eventually. I wasn't going to be as stupid as I had been before; I wasn't going to charge her with him standing right there.

William. The name rolled around in my brain like bricks making contact with the ground just after being thrown off a ten-story building. No, I wouldn't do that . . . now.

"Such a shame." His vile lips spat. That's when I made up my mind. I was going to capture him, ties his hands to different branches of a tree, and, punch him until his head fell off. Then I would burn his remains and dump them in horse shit.

"What did you do to him?" shrieked Rosalie. I could feel her hurt. I wanted to dilute it, but needed to focus more on William and what he was doing. I wasn't going to let him sneak up and attack anyone.

"Me?" he asked sarcastically, as if it were an insult to assume he had done this; like he had never done it before. "I have done nothing to him. My friend Cleo however, she had some fun with him."

"What do you want from us?" demanded Alice. I could tell she didn't want us to fight him again. She was worried I would do something rational and get hurt.

"What I wanted before. Revenge, Bella." He taunted. He was smiling too. It made me want to puke. Then he turned to Edward. "Edward." He spoke my brother's name loathingly. He had not forgotten what he had done to him and he was going to make him pay for it.

As if on by some unseen command, two large, burly men came out of the woods behind Edward and grabbed him from behind. Bella wanted ot go to him, but Alice stopped he. We were going to lose Edward for now, but we weren't going to lose Bella. He wanted us to protect her no matter what.

"Don't worry, pretty." William comforted Bella. "We won't hurt your precious human boy and you may have him back as soon as I'm done with him." From his tone, I could tell that, though he was planning on returning Edward, he wasn't going to be in as good a shape as he was in right now. He would return him alive though. I would make sure of that if I had to follow them to wherever they were going.

"Let's go." William said to the men that had Edward. He motioned toward the woods where they had all come out of. He started walking, but the girl, Cleo, she didn't follow.

"He needs human blood." She whispered softly, looking at Emmett. "And he needs it fast. And don't worry about the boy. William will not kill him." With that said, she quickly ran forward to catch up with William. I couldn't tell if he had heard her tell us what she had, and if he had, he didn't acknowledge it.

Alice quickly relayed the message to Bella, who them calmed down a little, but still wanted to kick their asses for taking Edward. She stopped trying to run after them though and instead just sat in Alice's arms and sobbed.

We all watched as they dragged Edward into the forest and then out of sight.

"We need to find some blood for Emmett." Rosalie said as soon as William and his followers were out of sight. "He's getting worse." I looked down at Emmett and saw that, in fact, he had gotten worse. There were more cracks on his face and they were now spreading more heavily to the rest of his body.

"Let's put him back in the car and we can drive him home." Alice said. "We can ask Carlisle to get some blood from the hospital for him." No one argued with the plan. I grabbed Emmett and flung him over my shoulder again, then carried him back to the car and shoved him in the back seat.

The car ride home was silent. No one said a word the whole way there, except Alice who was still trying to get Bella to stop crying. When we got to our house, Esme was alarmed when she was Emmett. One of us had to go to the hospital to get Carlisle, so that's what I did. Everyone else stayed home and filled Esme in on what was going on.

At the hospital, Carlisle was in the middle of a meeting with a patient, briefing them on what was going to happen during their surgery he was going to perform on them in the next week some time. I knocked softly on the door and Carlisle came to the door. He was surprised to see me because I had never been to the hospital before, but he was in the section where there was no open wounds and therefore no temptation to eat.

"Can I help you, Jasper?" he asked.

"Something has happened." I replied. "We were attacked at the beach by William and some other vamps he had with him. One of them had a gift and in short she used it on Emmett and now he needs blood."

"Why did you come here?" he asked. "One of you go hunting and bring him some."

"Not that kind of blood." I said. "Human blood. We thought you could get some from here. He needs it soon and its going to have to be injected into him."

He sighted. "Give me ten minutes to finish this." He closed the door and went back to his patient. I waited outside the door, pacing back and forth.

True to his word, ten minutes later he ushered the patent out of the room they had been in and he motioned for me to follow him down the hall in the other direction.

"You go back home." He said. "I don't want you to risk anything while I have the blood in me." He smiled to one of his coworkers as he continued to tell me why I should go home. "I'll be there as soon as I can."

"Ok." I said and left the hospital to go back home.

When I got there, they had finished telling Esme what had happened. She looked like a bus had just run her over. Since Edward had decided to become human again, she had been very protective of him. Now that he had been captured, I was sure that would only increase until he was safely home and vampire again.

"Carlisle will be home as soon as he can be." I said.

"How long is that?" Esme nearly shouted at me. It almost scared me. "Was he in a meeting or did he just have to get the blood?"

"He just had to get the blood for Emmett." I replied. Then the house door opened and closed. He was home. Esme ran into the front room and nearly tackled him.

"It will be fine." He comforted her. "Now please get off me Esme. I need to treat Emmett."

"Do you know what happened to Edward?" she asked.

"No." Carlisle replied, trying to hide his surprise that something had happened to Edward. He was trying to focus on the task he had to do right then. "Tell me all about it after I help Emmett." He walked in the bedroom where they had put Emmett and closed the door. A second later, Rosalie came out of the room, her face even paler than normal with worry. Carlisle must have kicked her out of the room.

He was in the room for longer than it must have taken Emmett the blood he needed, but he did eventually come out of the room. He looked as if he had been doing a lot of thinking, probably expecting the worse news about Edward.

"Come." He said to Esme. "Tell me what all happened." They walked up the stairs and locked the door of their bedroom while Esme told him the story that had been relayed to her.

Meanwhile, Rosalie went to go see how Emmett was doing.

"We should take Bella home." Alice said, coming up to me. She wrapped her arms around my middle. I hugged her back ad gave her a soft kiss on the top of her head.

"I think it would be better if she stayed here." I said, "Her father will do nothing but quiz her about today's events once he sees the state she is in."

"You are right." Alice sighed. "I'll go and call him to tell him she's staying here." She stepped up on her tiptoes and gave me a kiss on the cheek, then went into the kitchen to call Bella's father.

Bella was sitting at the piano bench by herself, softly sobbing into the keys of the piano.

"Alice is calling your father." I told her, sitting next to her. "You're staying here tonight, if that's alright. We didn't think you'd want to explain everything to your father."

"Thank you." She said, pulling her head up from the keys to look at me. He eyes were very puffy and red from all the crying she had been doing. Her hair was beginning to become messy from her head being against something. She looked horrible.

"I'll get him back." I told her.

"No." she said. "I don't want you to get hurt."

"I'll only go after him if I have to." I quickly added, not wanting to make her anymore upset than she already was. Though I had no idea why me getting hurt would upset her. "I just thought you night want to know that we didn't abandon him."

"Thank you." She said again. Tears were everywhere on her face. I took one of my fingers and wiped some of them away. She tried ot smile, but it was too hard.

I wrapped my arms around her and offered her my shoulder to crying. She gladly took and stayed that way until she had cried herself to sleep.
