ALi: Why?

Rosalie: Now.

Ali: Fine. I own nothing but the plot... R&R


Bella's Pov:

She woke up and reached under her pillow for the gun that wasn't there. She looked at the door and saw Edward standing there with a crooked grin. He laughed and let go of the door knob.

"You're ready for anything. Good. Emmett'll be on top of you, crushing you until you hurt if you let your guard down."

She could tell he was joking but she didn't like it. She got up and walked lightly down the steps. There was food on the table and she looked from face to face when her gaze finally landed on... Carlisle's face. She quickly looked away and ate her food.

"What about all of you?"

"We ate before you woke up," the pixie... Alice said, pointing to the sink full of dirty dishes.

Bella washed up her dirty dishes and leaned on the window. She looked out for the Division. Her mind was on what she would do. She sighed and went and looked in the garage. Her car was there. She grabbed her keys and hopped in, driving away.

She needed to get a gun.

"How much?"

"Around 300."

Bella growled. "250 and you got a deal."

The man gave her the gun and she handed him the money. She loaded her bullets as soon as she walked out and put the safety on. SHe put her gun away and drove back. When she walked in they crowded around her.

"We thought you left," Edward stated for them.

"I did. I'm back."

She didn't stay, she ran into her room, bumping into Carlisle. Electricity and cold enveloped her. She closed her door and leaned against the door. She looked at the gun. She put it up and walked back downstairs. Her eyes stayed on the Cullens. They acted a little off.

"I'll be going out soon... Tomorrow if I can. I should be back before... 3AM?"

Esme frowned. Bella calculated her chances to go. She saw out of the corner of her eye, the blond male, Carlisle shift. She forced hersef to looked at everyone.

"Alright. Where to?"

"Downtown for some business."

She didn't reveal where. She wasn't going to let everyone know her business unless they were going to know hers. Her feet lightly hit the ground and she felt her gun start falling in her pants. She Moved them back up and walked up the stairs to make a call.

"Hello?"

"Hey. I'm coming over tomorrow."

"Great! We'll be happy to see you. Let me just... Ouch!" She almost giggled. "Clean up around here... Dad is this yours?"

She could almost hear his father telling him no. She actually laughed. "Alright. See you tomorrow. And don't forget to save some food for me... I was saving up some room for it last year when I got crumbs."

"Sorry Bella. Oh. Got to go, dad's trying to... DAD! Bye."

She pressed end and put her phone in her pocket, eager to go to the reservation. She heard a boom downstairs and ran down there, not pulling her gun out yet. She saw a perfectly good TV lying on the ground. It was a sad sight.

"Poor, poor TV... Who did this?"

Everyone looked at the colprates. Emmett and Jasper shrugged and put the TV back. Bella narrowed her eyes only slightly, seeing it was easier than it should have been. They sat on the couch and brewthed heavily, but she couldn't hear the slight weasing that came with effort.

"Give up yet?"

A voice beside her chuckled. "Do you?"

SHe didn't answer. She looked at the time and sighed. If she wanted food she'd have to get to the reservation early.

"I'm going to bed."

"But it's 8PM," the pixie whined.

"I've got to get someplace early if I want some food before a group of boys eats everything."

She said nothing more and went upstairs. She closed her eyes and slipped into the reccesses of sleep with ease.

She went through her clothes at 5AM, looking for somethign appropriate to wear. She picked up some skinny jeans and threw them on. She found a black tank top and put it on. She picked out her favorite army green jacket and brushed out her hair before putting it on.

She went to the mirror and put on a light ammount of makeup. She thought herself presentable and walked downstairs. Everyone was up except the bronze and the strawberry blond. Edward and Esme. She looked around and saw one face that almost made her blush.

"I'll be heading out. I need some food and if I don't hurry I'm not getting any. Have fun and get some sleep."

She drove straight down to La Push and parked at Emiliy's house. She ran inside to see SAm asleep and Emily still cooking. Emily turned around and smiled.

"Hey Bella. It's been a year."

"You know I don't miss feasts... unless some people eat it."

Bella smiled for the first time in a year. "Want some help?"

"Could you set the table and wake up Sam?"

Bella nodded and Moved the dishes set out on the table. She arranged them so that every wolf could eat at the table... if possible. She Mover Sam into the air and let him drop.

"I know that wake up call anywhere," he said. "Bella's here."

Bella smiled. "Yes and it's before you can eat all the food. I come only once a year and you guys eat my cut?"

Sam pouted and widened his eyes. "We said we were sorry."

"You still owe me 100 for that."

Sam grumbled and pulled out 25. She gave him a look and pulled out another 25. "That's all I've got. The others will pitch in."

She gave him a doubtful look but dropped the matter. She sighed. She needed to release her tension. She turned to Sam and smiled.

"TEll me that legend again? I've missed it for a few years."

Sam sighed. "DO I have to? Why not Jacob?"

"Jacob told me last time. It's your turn."

Sam sighed with a grin on his face. He launched into the legend and told of Taka Ahi and the Cold Ones. She went into deep thought after the story ended. SHe thought about all the signs. Cold skin, strength, they seeming to be awake at all times, the speed. She narrowed her eyes.

"What?"

She looked at sam confused. "What?"

"You have that calculating look on your face."

"Just calculating how much food I'm gonna get."

Sam broke a grin and picked her up. She Pushed him and he set her down. She walked a little away and released him.

"NO fair! You Pushed me"

She smiled, glad that she didn't have to hide her true self from the tribe. She shrugged and looked at Emily.

"How much time left?"

"ABout an hour."

She smiled and headed for the door. "I'm going to Jacob's. Make sure I have foor Emily."

"Alright."

Bella slowly walked to Jacob's wondering how he was. She immediatly wondered how Billy was which resulted in her thoughts of Charlie. She shook herself, telling herself that he was safe. He was a police officer and would be safe with the tribe.

She knocked on Jacob's door and smiled when the big lug answered it. She laughed with Billy and Jacob until it was time to leave. She rode on Jacob's back to Emily's. She jumped into the house and held out her hand.

"Where's my money?"

She was swarmed and given the rest of her hundred and hugged. She smiled and sat at the table, taking her food. She looked around at the guys.

"How's you're patrols been?"

Quil shrugged. "It's been good. We caught a leech with dreadlocks."

She nodded. "Sounds fun."

Embry laughed. "It was. How's your luck going?"

She shrugged. "SAme old. GOt in a fight with a mountin lion though."

Paul frowned. "Are you alright?"

Bella shrugged. "I've been through worse."

They laughed and Jared tried to take her pie. She Pushed him and he went back to his own food. She ate happily until she was full. Her eyes looked at the clock.

"I've got to go before I collapse... I'll be back tomorrow okay?"

They nodded. She hugged Emily fiercly and thanked her for the food. She climbed into her car and frove back to the Cullens, her good mood still in affect due to her time with her family. She pulled into the garage and walked in with a smile.

"Someone's happy for once," Emmett muttered.

Bella frowned, good mood dissapated. She sat on the couch and noticed the wrinkling of noses. She remembered the legend. They were the Cold One's. shhe frowned deeper and crossed her legs. How could they not tell her something ro important? She could have died.

Carlisle sat on the couch and whispered something to Esme. Bella felt jealous. She shook herself, remembering she shouldn't be jealous of a extremely good looking dr.

"Willing to give up? I could wait forever like you," she said, hinting that she knew.

The pixie looked around the room. The Watcher was at a loss for words. Bella sighed and rolled her eyes, walking up to the pixie.

"I know your secret especially. Why aren't you running?"

Alice looked confused. "From what?"

Bella's eyes widened. How can someone forget the Division? They'd been around centeries trying to find out how to use them for weapons. She shook her head and continued to push forward.

"You're a Watcher... can see into the future?"

She still looked confused. Bella sighed and walked to the stairs. She was fed up with trying to pry their secret out of them. She grabbed her bags andstarted down the stairs. Carlisle stepped in front of her.

"Where are you going?"

"The only place I call home."

Carlisle had a hurt look on his face, Bella looked away and Moved him, touching him, out of her way. She couldn't look at the pained expression, she couldn't look at what she caused to the man.

"Please don't go." (I suddenly thought about that one song. Most of you know the one!)

She stopped at the door, her hand on the handle. "Tell me..."

"Carlisle!"

Bella turned and saw Carlisle's mouth open. She looked at Rosalie standing up. Bella looked at them calmly. She turned the knob slightly. Carlisle's expression showed so much agony. She looked down and back at the door. How can she give an angel such pain?

"I guess this is good-bye."

She opened and closed the door behind her, driving off, but she couldn't get the agaony on the man's face ot of her mind... she caused that.

Ali: YAY!
