Jacob POV

I held Renesmee in my arms, feeling helpless. I ran my hand over her head as she moaned from the pain. Her eyes flashed open as she gasped for air. She seemed to relax for a minute, her body not so tense as it was just a few seconds ago. I ran my hand over her cheek, telling her that the pain would go away soon. It hurt to see her this way.

Kayden called Ellen and told her to set up the equipment in his office. Renesmee was going to stay at their house under Kayden's watch around the clock.

"Jacob," Kayden said, his voice edgy.

The look on his face made me uneasy, full of fear.

"Arabell might be here sooner than you think."

I stared at him for a moment, then back at Renesmee's pained expression.

"I won't lose you." I whispered in her ear, a tear running down my cheek.

***

I walked into the room where Renesmee slept. She slept better than she did earlier, but as I watched her sleep, her eyebrows furrowed. Her breathing got deeper. I watched her hands clench together, and she let out a terrifying scream.

Before I could move a muscle, Ellen and Kayden ran into the room. Ellen ran over and placed her hands on Nessie's face, desperately trying to wake her. I held Nessie's hand, my face in her hair.

"Nessie, love, I'm here! I'm here! Everything's going to be alright! Ness…Ness, NESSIE!" I said, helpless.

I couldn't take seeing her in so much pain. Something had to be done. I wasn't going to lose her now…not ever.

That was when she woke up, still in pain, but she stopped screaming. She cried in my arms. I held her close, terrified. Afraid. Scared of what was going to happen to her…to Arabell.

"Jacob, I need to talk to you." Kayden said quietly. "Ellen, stay with her, please."

Ellen nodded. I followed Kayden into the living room.

He sighed. I pinched the bridge of my nose, frustrated.

"We are going to have to deliver soon. Arabell is becoming too strong for Renesmee to handle. Her visions are getting stronger, also more intense. If we don't act soon…"

Kayden stopped there. Unable to finish the sentence. I walked over to the tall, glass window, staring out at the sun as it set over the mountains.

"How soon?" I said quietly.

Kayden was quiet. For a moment I heard nothing. Everything was still…motionless.

"Tonight." He said, resonant.

"Call Carlisle…I'll need his help."

Nessie POV

The pain was becoming stronger. The visions were powerful, more vigorous…but they were blurry. I couldn't see what was going on. I was more concerned about Arabell than myself, and every time I felt a vision coming on, I tried not to scream, but I could feel the violent and painful kicks as Arabell desperately tried to push the vision away. I held on to Jacob, crying in his arms. I felt horrible for showing him the pain I was in.

His eyebrows were mashed together, his expression full of agony. I knew he felt helpless. So did I.

The vision finally went away. I relaxed for a moment, but not too much…for I was sure the next vision would come on in the next twenty minutes.

"Carlisle and your parents are on their way. They will be here in about an hour." Jacob said softly, wiping the sweat away from my forehead. "You will be okay soon. So will Arabell. He said softly, caressing me. I stared into his eyes. I had to be strong for him…for Arabell. I hated feeling weak.

***

"Renesmee?"

I thought I was dreaming, but I slowly opened my eyes to find my mother coming around the bed to hold my hand. When I realized she really was there I smiled weakly, holding my hands out to give her a hug. She hugged me gently, a sob coming out.

"Oh Renesmee…" She said softly, sitting on the edge on the bed, my hand in hers. "I love you. We will get through this."

My father came in then. I was expecting more of an angry expression on his face. I was expecting him to blame Jacob for this…but his expression was…blank. I couldn't figure it out.

He walked over to the other side of the bed and stopped, reaching out to touch my free hand. I studied his face, still hard to read.

"I'm not blaming anyone Renesmee." He said, reading my thoughts.

"You don't think…that Arabell is…a monster…do you?"

"No." He said sharply. "She is very strong. Too strong for you to handle. I'm not sure why the visions are so bad though." He said softly.

"I can't see them anymore. They're too blurry for me to see….and why she keeps having violent ones…"

"I thought of the possibilities. Was Jacob going to get hurt? Was I? Was she having visions of her birth?"

I was deep in thought, trying to figure how these visions. If the visions were blurry…why would Arabell react so violently? Was there something she didn't want me to see?

That was it. I was sure of it.

My father's eyes flashed to mine, noticing my train of thought. My eyes went wide, and so did his.

"What is it?" My mother asked.

Just then Carlisle and Jacob walked in. Jacob came by my side, running his hand through my curls.

"I think Arabell knows what the visions are, but since I am also seeing her visions because I'm still carrying her, she doesn't want to show me what she's seeing. They are blurry, but, I can still tell that they are pretty violent."

Carlisle beamed.

"Interesting theory. She could have possibly inherited your gift as well."

I looked up at Jacob. He studied my face. Not taking his eyes off of mine. I suddenly felt a sharp jolt of pain. I tried my best to hide it, but with no luck. I just wanted this to end.

Jacob POV

It was eleven at night, close to midnight.

I lay with Nessie, talking to her softly, trying to help her through the pain.

"Jake…" She moaned, holding my hand tightly, cringing from the pain.

"It's…getting harder…to…breathe…" She said gasping.

Everyone came around just then.

"Aghhh!!!!" Nessie screamed.

"She's having contractions, and along with the visions…its only making it worse." Carlisle said.

I watched as Carlisle and Kayden got ready to deliver.

Edward and Ellen left to the living room to give Renesmee some space. It was just Bella and me now, as we watched in agony the pain in those chocolate brown eyes.

Renesmee POV

"Okay Renesmee. I need you to push again."

It felt like the 80th time I pushed. At the same time I was still having the visions, which was distracting me. My mother wiped the sweat from my forehead with a wet rag. I pushed again.

"You're doing great, Ness. I see the head!"

Jacob kissed my forehead.

"Ness, love keep going I know you can do it, just keep going."

I kept pushing, feeling weak and out of breath.

"You're almost there! One more time!"

I pushed, with every ounce of strength I had left, and when I heard the cries of my newborn child, and saw those beautiful cloudy grey eyes staring right back at me…I knew that I finally had everything I wanted in life. But I was slipping under. My sight was fading, and hearing Jacob's voice telling me to stay alive felt far away, and soon…I had fallen under. I heard nothing.

***

I saw my whole life flash before my eyes, from the time I was born, to when Jacob imprinted on me, through my whole childhood…up until now, when I saw Arabell and her beautiful face in my dreamlike fantasy.

I gasped, shaking as I woke.

"RENESMEE!!!!" Jacob shouted, relieved.

I couldn't concentrate. Wait. Was I dreaming? I thought I died.

"No Renesmee, you did not die. You are alive." Edward said soothing me.

"It took me a moment to concentrate. It wasn't until I noticed the crying in the background. My head snapped up to see Arabell being cleaned up by Carlisle.

"Here she is." He said as he brought over the big bundle of blankets.

"Seven pounds, five ounces. Born on August fifteenth at 12:07 A.M."

As he handed me the bundle of blankets…I gasped.

She had those beautiful, big grey eyes I saw in the dreams. She already had some hair, jet black hair like Jacob's, but curly like mine.

I smiled as she yawned.

"Hello Arabell." I said.

"Welcome to the family."
