Author's Notes: Here's Chapter 3! I really enjoyed writing this Chapter!
Seconds had very quickly turned to minutes, and before we knew it, we'd all been here for over an hour, solutionless. With the Cullens, or as I assume, all vampires in general, time leaps at an accelerated speed. According to Edward, days fly by like years do, but this has been the only time I'd actually seen the Cullen's stumped.
Alice was the first one to break the long and dreadful silence.
"Guys! I think I know what to do," she exclaimed happily.
After therougly playing out Alice's idea in his head, Edward's gold tinted eyes lit up.
"I was overthinking this situation way too much, we all were. Alice's solution is simple, and most definitely will work," Edward remarked.
Alice squealed with glee. She must be ecstatic that she came up with this solution herself.
"Well go on and tell us! You do realise this newborn clan is enlarging by the minute, right?" Emmett stated, clearly annoyed.
Alice stuck out her tongue at him.
"Alright Emmett, calm yourself. Considering the fact that we can't all just go and fight this army like we did with the recent newborn clan, Ifigured we must do it little by little, starting off with their leader." Alice pointed out jubilantly.
Everyone seemed to think that this idea that had sparked in Alice's mind will work out perfectly, including me.
"I'm very impressed Alice, this plan that you stirred up, surely will do the trick we've been searching for," Carlisle mentioned.
As Edward drove me home in his shiny, freshly polished, silver Volvo, I assured myself everything was going to turn out okay. The Cullens would destroy these awful newborns, then my life would hopefully return back to normal. The biggest threats, James, Laurent, and Victoria are all now deceased, so after this newborn problem is dealt with, I truly shouldn't have anything to worry about.
Before I knew it, the Volvo's headlights had stepped foot into none other, but my father's house.
"Thanks for the ride Edward. Will I see you tonight?" I flashed him a grin.
"Of course… unless you don't want me to come."
"No! Edward please come," I pleaded.
"Then I'll be there, no doubt," he showed off my favourite crooked smile before he drove off into the starry night.
From outside, I could see through the window that Charlie, my dad, was laying on the couch watching the baseball game. His usual routine.
"Hey Dad," I'd greeted as soon as I unlocked the front door.
"Hey Bells! There's some leftover pizza on the counter if your hungry."
"Oh dammit! Sorry I wasn't home to cook you dinner," I'd apologised. I very rarely forget about cooking dinner, but whenever I do, I always feel bad afterwards.
"No worries, I haven't had pizza in a while anyways,"
"Alright, if you say so, I'm kinda tired though Dad, I think I'm gonna hit the sack" I told Charlie.
"Kay, night' Bells."
"Night', " I responded.
I ran up the stairs to brush my teeth and get changed into my pajamas, but as soon as I opened the door leading into my bedroom, Edward was already there, reading my copy of "Wuthering Heights,"
"I still don't understand why you enjoy this book so much," He'd said to me. I just laughed in response.
I got tucked into the covers of my bed. It's summer, but for some reason, Mother Nature loves to keep the residents of Forks, Washington freezing all year long.
"When are we going to leave for Seattle?" I'd questioned Edward. From the looks of Alice's astonishing plan, it seemed like we might be staying in Seattle for a while. I really should get a heads up as to when I should start packing.
"In a few days. We have to leave soon, before this newborn decides to change too many humans. Apparently, he's already created around 30 of them." This took me by surprise.
"30?! What?! How?! That's even more than we had to fight last month, and we had and extra pack of wolves helping us out!" I cried out hysterically.
"My point. You know you should really quiet down, Charlie will start to suspect things. Oh and speaking of Charlie, we're going to have to think of an excuse as to why you won't be home during the fight." Edward reminded me.
"I'll figure it out, I always do," I managed to answer back during a yawn.
"Sleep Bella, you're tired. You also have a pretty large week ahead of you." Edward said while stroking my hair soothingly.
"True," I agreed.
Edward then started to hum the tune to my lullaby, and I began to dose off into a world that made more sense.
