Chap 15 – Found

BPOV

I fought as hard as I could to get away from Edward. I had to find my boys. I struggled for hours trying to get away. I had to find them. Every instinct in my body screamed at me to find them, to keep fighting till I got away.

After only 5 hours, which was an eternity to me, I ran out of energy. I couldn't move, my body was just to tired. I then realized that I had forgotten to hunt after I had gotten home. I was only home 24 hours but I hadn't hunted since before the trip a week ago. With all the stress between Edward and Elite and now my fits, my energy was gone. I almost felt dizzy.

So I just lay there, in Edward's arms, unable to move, almost as if comatose. A small feeling of contentment ran through me. Having Edward back seemed to at least give me some sort of relief from my worst nightmare turned reality.

I heard footsteps come up the stairs and into my room. I knew it was Edward's family, my family. Edward who had been lying next to me sat up.

I just lay there, silent and unmoving staring off at what to me was nothing but a blur.

I heard Edward explain what had happened to his family though he never left my side. He kept physical contact with me the entire time, never letting go. For that I was grateful.

I felt my mind pull away and I lost the conversation.

I finally felt the bed move and I heard Edward whisper, "We will find them, and we will bring them home safely."

I believed him. We had to find them. I couldn't survive if we didn't, and I knew that it would not end well for Edward or his family, or Siete or my friends for that matter. And hurting my mate was something that I really did not want to do, not after what we've been through.

EPOV

I wasn't sure if Bella had heard me. She hadn't moved, said anything, or even blinked in the last hour or so.

I just sat there watching her, everything in me just screaming to make her better. It killed me to know that I could do nothing but sit and watch her suffer.

"Edward?"

I looked up to see Carlisle standing a few feet from the end of the bed.

"Yeah?"

"You said that you found a dart with Morphine on it. Where is it?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. It's in the drawer over here." I reached over, still keeping my hand entwined with Bella's, and pulled the dart from the drawer.

Carlisle walked over gently took the silver tube from my hand. Evidently my feelings were showing because his thoughts penetrated my mind.

'Relax Edward she will be fine. This is very traumatic for her; let her mind protect itself for a while. Her father is with Aro letting him know that someone is hunting vampires. I'll call him and give him the number on the inside of the dart and he'll track it to who did this, and hopefully to your son and the others.'

"Sons. My sons." I said looking at Bella. Even if they weren't actually my sons they were like Bella's and that meant that they were mine too.

I looked up when I felt his hand touch my shoulder, ' Of course. We will find them and she will be fine.'

I nodded and smiled as he disappeared from the room.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1 Hour Later ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After calling Siete with the code number on the dart, my family went hunting for themselves and caught a few deer, drained their blood into a container for Bella and returned home. I refused to hunt myself without seeing that she was better first.

I sat behind her, lifting her into my lap, rubbing the back of her neck encouraging her to swallow the blood that Carlisle was pouring into her mouth. After the first few mouthfuls we got into her she reached for the cup.

"I got it. Thank you." She whispered.

Carlisle handed her the cup carefully. I put my right hand under the cup to be sure she didn't drop it. Carlisle nodded and walked out. They still had nothing, not even a name.

After a few minutes the second cup was empty. "Are you ok now or do you need more?" I asked taking the cup.

"No, I'm okay now. Are you okay?" she whispered leaning back.

"I'm fine for now. How do you feel?"

"Like I'm about to lose my mind. I want to find my boys so bad, but I don't even know where to start."

"Our boys." I corrected. "And I made you the promise that we would find them and I plan on keeping it."

"Edward!" I looked up to see Alice standing at the edge of the bed smiling like a fool. "We found them!"

"You found them? Are they okay?" Bella asked pulling herself away from me.

"We know where they are but not how they are. There in an old military base up in Talkeetna, Alaska." She smiled.

Talkeetna was a 2-day drive and over 2500 miles from here. How could they get that far so fast? It's been less than 24 hours.

"Let's go! We have to run to get there faster. Edward you can grab a snack on the way, we have to go now."

I looked over to where Bella was…She wasn't there. She was already out the door. Alice and I took off after her and the rest of the family. I would worry about hunting later, right now my mate and my sons were the only thing on my mind.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Talkeetna, Alaska ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The base came into sight. It looked like a plane hanger but I knew that there had to be more underground.

The wind carried the scent of the boys, they were here…but the scent of other vampires was present as well. From the scent there were only 3.

'Oh, I have been waiting for a good fight forever. Finally!'

I had to laugh at Emmett's comment. I was just as excited as he was to kill these vampires.

Bella stiffened next to me. I pulled her to me offering as much comfort as I could at this time. After a minute we began walking towards the hanger.

We entered it cautiously. There was nothing there, just a cement floor. Had the location been false? There wasn't anything…

A slamming sound behind us cut off my thoughts. The door that we had come through was closed.

Then we heard the laughing.

Standing in the center of the hanger was a young teen. He could not have been older then 14. Dark sandy hair, about 5 foot 6 inches and red eyes. Though his appearance was that of a 14 year old I knew that he was a lot older. Newborns have a 'sweeter' scent then we do, his scent wasn't.

"Awwwwe, have mommy and daddy come here to rescue their baby?" he said in a mocking tone. My family and I growled but it was Bella not Emmett who responded.

"Where are they?!" her words were almost unrecognizable through the growls ripping through her chest. I grabbed her to keep her from lunging herself at him. She was shaking and I could feel her body beginning to get ready to spring.

The boy just kept laughing, un-phased by Bella's temper. It was my turn.

"What do you want with them?"

"It's only the young one we're interested in. The others just got in the way." Came a new voice.

We looked over to the side to see a man, around Carlisle's age with brown hair, standing on the side of the hanger…with an unmoving Zane in his arms.

Before I could even predict what she was about to do, Bella sprang from my arms heading towards the man who held Zane.

Before she could even get halfway there, a blur of red flashed across the hanger and slammed right into her, sending both her and whatever it was flying across the rest of the 200 foot hanger with a loud crack.

The red blur was the other vampire. His red jacket standing out against his pale skinned, brown haired, 18 year old form. Only this vampire was different. He was a newborn.

Bella was pinned underneath him struggling to get to Zane. The hissing and growling between the two was almost deafening in the quiet hanger.

I was about to go after him when Jasper beat me to it. 'I've handled newborns before Edward let me take care of it, you get Zane.'

With some hesitation I turned my attention back to the man holding my son.

"What do you want with him?"

"He is the only child known to be the offspring of a vampire. The power he possesses is greater then you can imagine. By testing the venom running through his veins we can figure out exactly what's so different about his DNA. You see once we figure that out we replicate it and add it to other pieces of DNA, such as ours, to give our powers a small boost if you will."

This idiot was grinning like some crazed man that escaped from an asylum. They wanted to try to make themselves more powerful by using my son's DNA.

"You know you're not very smart! Telling us you 'evil' plan." Emmett called at the man, his name being Kevin from what I picked up, laughing.

"Oh it's okay. You won't live long enough to tell anyone else."

A sickening snap sounded through the hanger, followed by the sound of two pieces of metal scratching together, and the smell of smoke. My eyes flew over to the other side.

Jasper was next to a large ball of fire engulfing something, his arm around Bella's waist. Bella was standing, leaning against him for support, and not putting any pressure on her right leg. The newborn was gone.

'This one is done Edward. Bella's fine, she may have dislocated her hip but she fine.'

A small sense of relief came over me. I looked back to Kevin who was in a state of shook. 'No! This can't happen!'

The blonde kid took off running for the back of the hanger, Emmett not far behind.

"You will never leave here alive! Do you hear me?!" Kevin shouted back towards the left side of the hanger. A small piece if the wall slid open.

'Edward help me here. I grab the guy and you grab Zane. Bella can't put any weight on her left leg so it's just you and me; tell Carlisle Esme and Rose to find the others. I bet they're through that door way' Jasper and his military man attitude. He knew what he was doing and it sounded like the perfect plan.

"Esme, Carlisle, Rose! Go find the others they're probably through those doors!" I yelled back to them over the roaring of the flames that were now threatening to burn the hanger to the ground.

"Edward, I'm taking Bella out of here!" Emmett yelled running past me already in action.

I looked over to Jasper and he nodded letting me know that it was time to go. We both jumped at Kevin at the same time. Jasper grabbed Kevin's shoulders yanking him back and causing him to release Zane. I grabbed Zane and jumped back landing a few feet away.

'Edward we have the boys. There's a door back here we'll meet you outside.' Esme called pleased that they had found them.

Three down one to go.

I nudged Zane trying to get him up. No response.

"Zane. Come on wake up."

Still nothing. Then I thought of something that Bella had said.

"Yes you! All he ever wanted was for daddy to come home so we could be a family. He was never interested in gifts. You know, I caught him actually praying a few years ago. He said that he didn't care about anything else, he just wanted daddy to come home so mommy could be happy and we could be a real family. That's all he's ever wanted Edward, and I couldn't give him that. When he was a baby I had to watch him scream and cry and thrash around as he called for you. I've never felt so useless in my life."

I grabbed Zane's arm shaking it gently. 'I hope this works.'

"Zane. It's daddy; I need you to wake up now okay? Come on." I shook him again.

I waited for a moment. Then I saw his eyelids flutter. He opened his eyes seconds later.

His eyes were the perfect blue, teal color of his mothers with the light traces of the amber in mine.

"Daddy?" he said sitting up.

"Yeah kiddo. You ready to go back to mommy?"

"Yeah!" He yelled jumping to his feet.

"Edward get Zane out of here!" I turned to see Jasper having a hard time holding onto Kevin.

I nodded and turned to grab Zane but he was up and heading towards the exit.

'That little runt will NOT get out of this. No one should have that power!'

I turned to see Kevin throw Jasper back and pull out a gun and shove a tube into it. He aimed at Zane and pulled the trigger.

I jumped to pull Zane out of the way when I felt a slight jab in my left arm. I pulled the tube out throwing it to the ground. I grabbed Zane and stood up only to be brought back down onto the cement by a burning sensation in my arm. Sounds started to drift off as if I was under water, my sight blurred, and the burning worsened.

"Edward!"

I could barely hear the voice but I knew that it belonged to Kat.

What was this stuff?

I couldn't stay awake anymore. My sight and body just gave out.

I wasn't sure if I was going to wake up. But if I didn't at least I knew that both my mate and my son were safe.

BPOV

Emmett grabbed me from behind and threw me into his arms taking off. The shock of the sudden weight against my hip hurt, I closed my eyes against the pain. When I opened them we were outside.

We sat there for a few moments, everything in me pushing to go back in there but Emmett held me against his chest. I wasn't going anywhere.

A movement from the right caught my eye and I looked over to see Carlisle, Esme and Rosalie. They had Darius, Gabe and Lucian!

My knee caved when I put pressure on it and I hit the ground. I've been a vampire for 70 years and I still fall sometimes. I guess some things never change.

They laid the boys next to me. They weren't moving. I panicked.

"They're okay Bella, they're still out from the Morphine." Carlisle said leaning down next to me. "Are you okay?"

"I will be, I think. My hip hurts but I'm okay."

"Would you like me to look at it?"

"Not now but thanks, I just need to calm down." I smiled.

"Izzy are you okay?!" I heard two voices ask at the same time.

"Dad! Caleb!" They ran up to me and hugged me. Pulling me off the ground.

I winced at the sudden pull and they noticed. "Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I hurt my hip in a fight. Oh hey Jeremy, Kat, Kayla." I said to each one.

"How are you feeling?" Kat asked.

"I'm…" I was cut off by a loud and sharp bang. It was a gun.

Kat, Jeremy and Caleb took off towards the building. My instincts were to follow, but Emmett caught me.

"Edward!" I heard Kat scream.

"Something's wrong Emmett let me go!" I yelled. "Emmett! Let me go now!" I fought against him ignoring the pain in my hip.

I heard footsteps running towards the others and I. It was the rest of the family. Jeremy had Zane in his arms, Kat wasn't far behind and then there was Jasper. He was carrying Edward. And something was wrong.

Jasper placed Edward on the ground. From the corner of my eye I could see Caleb come around the corner of the hanger where Esme and Carlisle came from just as the building fell engulfed in flames.

I dropped to me knees by Edward and grabbed his hand.

His skin wasn't the same temperature as mine. It was warmer.

"Something's wrong with him!" I started to panic.

Siete reached down and touched Edwards arm.

"It's that new toxin Aro was talking about." He said not looking at me.

"What toxin?!"

No answer.

"Dad! What Toxin?!" The growls were evident in my voice.

"It doesn't have a name yet but Aro did say what it does." He said looking at me. "It's designed to break down the venom, turning it to nothing but useless liquid. It's like putting acid into a human's veins. It destroys the venom and because vampires don't get sick they don't have immune systems. There's nothing to fight it off. The toxin breaks it down and the vampire eventually dies." He whispered.

I heard his family gasp.

"No." I whispered. "No! No! No! No! This can't be happening!" I screamed.

I grabbed Edward's arm and shook it hard. "Edward come on! Don't do this! You were supposed to come back! We were supposed to be a family! Wake up!"

Nothing I was doing was working. I could see Caleb try to grab me, and something in me snapped.

It was like I was watching me through my eyes but I had no control. My instincts had taken over.

I began growling at Caleb. Anytime someone besides Zane came near Edward I just lost it. I even went after Siete!

"I'm sorry for this Izzy." I heard Siete say before I felt a small prick in my shoulder.

I started getting drowsy. He had given me Morphine. After a moment I collapsed onto Edwards chest.

This was it. I would wake up to a world full of nothing but pain. I would wake up to find Edward no longer here. What would happen to me afterwards? I'm not sure.

I was absolutely sure of one thing though. My mate was dying and my soul was dying right along with him.
