Chapter 3 – Leaving Our Safe Pod
BPOV
"Edward what did you see on that video?" I asked softly. Edward didn't look at me. I stared at him waiting for a answer. "Nothing to your concerns. I don't want you to panic." He said quietly. I walked over to him cupping his cheek softly. "Please tell me Edward. I know I can handle it." I said nicely looking into his forest green eyes. "You remember where the escape pods are right?" He asked ignoring my question. I nodded waiting for his response. "When we leave this room that is where we are going." He said putting on his suit. "What ever you see I want you to remember something happy about that place." Edward hugged me tightly. "Why are you so scared to go out there? Where going to look stupid going out there in these suits." I said angry. "No! When we go out there where going out there being smart and safe" He glared at me. "I don't want to argue, I just want you to be safe baby." Edward removed my mask pressing a soft kiss on my lips. "If anything bad happens to me when we go out there I want you to run and don't look back. No matter what you ever or what ever I say. Just keep running to the escape pods." He said sternly.
"Edward those escape pods are on the other side of this ships and what ever is out there that you don't want me to know, you don't think other people ran to go to them to. What if there isn't any! There was only enough for half the ship. We never ever thought something like this would happen! Please tell me so I know what were going up against. You know I can handle myself!" I pressed my forehead against his calming my breathing down. "Please tell me" I pleaded. "Bella, something terrible happened here. There no one on this ship, but us. I hacked into the ship to look at the activity that happened the last 11 months. People was killing and eating each other like they lost there minds!" I felt him shaking, holding me tight. "There was covering there ears like they was hearing voices in there heads. Something not right and I have a feeling it has to do with that cube you told me not to touch. You said your father never encounter a life form in space, well what ever was in that cube I have a feeling its now on this ship." He said seriously. "I don't want you to ever take this mask off your face and don't breath the air on this ship once I opened that door." He held my hand. "I promise you that we will get off this ship and I will marry you, watch our child grow up." I smiled at his words pressing my lips to his once more.
"I wonder if my father is still alive" I said softly. I felt his hand squeeze mines. Edward made sure to secure everything on my suit as I did his. "Remember don't take off this mask." I heard his voice in my mask so that we can communicate. Edward hugged me tightly to his body and tide a silver wire about my waist to his so we couldn't be far apart and held my hand. He unlocked the door quietly looking outside when I heard a gasp leave his mouth. He turned back towards me. "Are you sure you can do this?" He asked softly holding my hand tightly. I nodded, I stepped out the door. "Oh my god" I whispered.
