Learning Part of The Truth

A/N: This takes place the day Jasper disappears and the week proceeding it. Speech in the middle represents Jasper speaking over the phone.

Rosalie's POV

When Jasper called and told us where he found Bella, I knew that my gut was right. Edward didn't really care for her the way everyone else, especially himself, claimed he did. If Bella really was Edward's mate then he would have turned her regardless, hell Edward would have turned her the second that twisted prick James threatened her life. In my personal opinion Bella would have been better off if Edward had just left the second he caught her scent, but I also know that there is no way she'll be safe now. Bella knows of our world, the rules. Us being away from her, and with Bella being so accident prone, not to mention a walking magnet for danger. Odds are that if it weren't for Jasper, Bella would have died there on the forest floor.

The sound of metal bending on metal snaps me out of my thoughts. Great. I went and destroyed my wrench. Mental note, make sure Edward replaces my wrench before I help Jasper kill him. Suddenly the sounds of Carlisle's frantic voice gets me out from under my monkey man's Jeep and hurry to the living room. I'm no empath but I can tell their confused and worried.

"Jasper. Please, calm down."

I look to Emmett who simply shrugs. Jasper's voice, when he speaks, sounds different however.

"That is Major to you Doctor. Have you heard from that disrespecting shit Eddie yet?"

Major? Oh fuck me. Not good. What the hell has happened back in Forks?

"No Major. We have not...is everything alright?"

"No. Young Edward needs to be taught how to respect the ladies in his life. Do either of you know what he said to Isabella?"

What?

"No. I think only Edward and Isabella are aware of what occurred that day. May I ask why?"

"Why yes Doctor Cullen you may."

This had to be bad. I think all of us froze up waiting.

"It seems that young Edward, in short, declared that the sweet Isabella was nothing more than a distraction to him."

I snarled. Pissed. As did Emmett, Esme and Carlisle were frozen in shock.

"Save your snarls siblings. He also basically declared that she is unworthy of his oh so precious time."

My mind shot back to Royce King Jr. he more than likely viewed me in exactly the same way. A toy for his amusements. I had to ask. I couldn't not ask.

"Tell me that all he did was verbally destroy her."

"Yes. That is all he did, I would have informed all of you of that from the start. I will be in touch."

With that the phone went dead. None of us spoke, beyond shocked and appalled at the information we have been given in regards to Edward's behaviour when he left Bella. Emmett silently gets to his feet, face is a mask of nothing. No emotion.

"Emmett...?"

He cuts me off by raising his hand. He has never done this before, it gives the three of us some indication into his anger. The three of us watch Emmett as he silently walked outside to the forest. We exchanged concerned looks until we heard a roar of pure rage, followed by the sounds of trees being destroyed. To hear my husband and mate so enraged terrified me, I didn't know that I was actually trembling until Esme wrapped her arms around me. I see Carlisle speed outside, and soon there is some commotion.

"Emmett! I know you're pissed, I am too but you're scaring your mate, and this isn't going to help your little sister either. Now calm the FUCK down!"

Carlisle cussing was definitely something I wasn't used to. I look to Esme, and she is just as shocked and angry as I am.

Carlisle's POV

As soon as the sounds of trees being destroyed followed the very pissed roar of my son's, I immediately took notice that Rosalie was shaking. As my loving mate and wife comforted our daughter, I shot outside to try and calm Emmett down, Christ I would love to have Jasper's gift right now. Despite my talking to him though, Emmett seemed unable to stop himself from destroying any tree that was close to him. So I had to do something very stupid. Tackling my bear sized son to the ground. Mental note: DON'T do this ever again.

Tackling Emmett to the ground in hopes of getting his rage under some form of control, resulted in us both barrel rolling over the ground, taking down at least twenty trees with us. This would be tough to explain to the humans that's for damn sure. Screams of Rosalie and Esme calling out for us mixing in with the crashing sounds of trees. Eventually we came to a stop, and Emmett just lay there on the ground. It didn't take long for our mates to arrive.

"We have to do something dad. Can't we move just a little closer to Forks? My baby sister needs us, and I can't stand it anymore."

I nod as we both get off the ground, Rosalie cautiously approaches her mate, before Emmett just takes her in his arms. Esme closed the distance between the two of us very quickly, and we took comfort in each others arms until Emmett spoke again.

"I may not be able to remember everything about my human life, but what I do remember is swearing to myself that I would protect every woman in my family however I could. I'm breaking my promise to my baby sister."

"Ssh. Don't worry honey, we're going back. I know that you two might not be able to right away, under the visit story. But like Jasper, Em and I are supposed to be at college. We can go see her."

That was the good thing about Forks thinking that three of my children were at college, even despite foolishly giving into the guilt that Edward has placed upon us to get us to leave. Rosalie, Em and Jasper at the very least can go see Bella more often than myself and Esme.

It was agreed to wait until Jasper called again so that we could discuss our plan with him. However four days later and we were still to hear from him. Esme was spending most of her time pacing the floor so much that I was beginning that she'd literally make a hole in the floor, right down to the basement. All four of us have tried calling him with no success, to make matters worse neither Alice or Edward have called us. I would have thought Alice at the very least would have said something to us. A text message, a hand written essay about where Jasper or even herself had disappeared to but there was nothing. We were completely blind, and it wasn't making me feel all that confident in the safety of my family.

Returning home from the hospital on day 5 it is to find that Rosalie and Emmett are loading some stuff into Rosalie's BMW. We'd agreed on day three that if Jasper hadn't called by noon forty-eight hours from then Rosalie and Emmett were to go to Forks and talk to Bella, see if Jasper had told her anything about where he was going. I knew at 12:00 that he hadn't called because otherwise my increasingly worrying wife would have told me the second she heard his voice. Once the engine died I hurried out of the car before going over to my two children. Emmett just shook his head, giving a confirmation on something I already knew.

"Alright. For the sake of your mother, you two better call every hour."

Esme's voice floated down the stairs.

"And a text every 30 minutes."

Small smiles came to our lips at this. Before they drove off Rosalie hugged me, whilst Emmett clapped his paw like hand on my back. Esme quickly joined us outside stealing a hug from both of them. The two got into the BMW, Rosalie wouldn't dare let anyone else drive her car regardless, the engine broke the tense and concerned silence before they drove off.

Esme and I enter the house in silence. However my wife doesn't waste any time grabbing her cell phone and started dialling. I knew she wouldn't go calling Rosalie and Emmett just yet, so she was calling either Jasper, Edward or Alice. I knew she wanted to call Bella, so did I, but both of us had no clue on what to say. Esme's voice snaps me out of my thoughts.

"Jasper Whitlock Hale I don't give a shit if you are in bad ass Major persona. Either you or the Major WILL get the fucking balls to call me or Isabella. UNDERSTAND!"

With that she hung up. OK, my wife is cussing that means she is beyond pissed. Jasper my son, I do not envy you when you eventually call back.

A/N: Short chapter I know. However I dare say you're all more eager to see what happens with Emmett and Rosalie's visit to Bella. Thanks for reading.
