Bella's POV

I try to think of what to say when Eleazar speaks for me. "It appears Bella's' gift is bouncing off Alice's" He looks at me. "Did you see it first person, or third?" "Third" I say without thinking. "Are you sideways, or down at the scene?' I think about it. "The side." Eleazar looks at Alice. "It looks like yours and Bella's gifts are related. You can see someone else's future just as she can see another's present. You changed her?" He asks. She nods, looking thoughtful. Alice starts to say something, but I don't get a chance to hear what.

All I see is forest for a second, then Emmet and Rosalie run into the clearing. "Do you think they left? Emmet asks, when they stop. "I don't know. Maybe. They didn't say they were leaving for long, and that they would be back before they end of the month, if they were going by their word, they would have been here two weeks ago!" "Should we give up then? I mean, no point in searching for what's not there." "There's always the chance something happened, and Alice got a vision, maybe involving Edward?"

I come back into reality with a start. It's going to take some time to get used to that... Everyone's looking at me. I do a split-second review of the conversation in my head. "Emmet and Rosalie are out looking for you, they are debating on whether you left, Alice got a vision, or you went after... Edward." I felt a pang when I said it. His name. I haven't said it since I was talking to Laurent.

Alice looks at Eleazar "You said you talked to them recently. You have their phone number? Eleazar nods his head and tosses her a phone. She smiles and gives a nod in thanks and rushes into the woods.

Eleazar looks back at me. "Well, want to come meet the rest of the family, Bella?" I give a small nod and begin to follow him inside the house as Jasper comes to my side. I take a deep breath before going into the house. Here we go...
