Thanks to x-rosepetals-x, All Tears Must Fall and twilightandmaximumfreak for the reviews, I really appreciate it. Also thanks to everybody who has added me to their favourites or alerts list. I probably would have stopped a long time ago with out all your support and encouragement.

Sorry for not updating sooner, I won't bore you with any excuses/details.

Recap

"Oh… well.. You see the Edward I knew was different." I replied looking away. I saw Jasper and Alice nod out of the corner of my eye.

"What do you mean by that?" asked Edward his voice harsh and cold. Like a stranger.

( end of recap)

Bella's POV

I looked around at him, in shock. "em..em" I stuttered, completely at a loss at what to say. He looked at me, his gaze cold and unmoving. "You were, happier" I answered inadiquatly at last, looking him directly in the eye. He looked unsatisfied with that answer. I knew I would have been, yet there was no other way I could describe it. Yes he, looked, sounded and smelt like him, but he was not my Edward.

I was saved from and further questioning, by the timely arrival of Carlisle and the rest of the family. As they walked in they looked around, sensing the tension in the air, it was almost tangible. I looked up at Carlisle hopefully, desperate that he would be able to shed some light on the situation.

Edward's POV

She looked so hopeful, innocent. I desperately wanted to comfort her, to reassure her that everything would be okay. I stared at her, unable to take my eyes of, of this angel before me. Sensing my gaze she looked at me, with a puzzled expression. Suddenly, I remembered the way her lips felt under mine, so soft. No, no NO!! I shook my head frantically trying to get rid of the image. When I finally succeeded I noticed everyone staring at me in concern.

Esme: Edward what's the matter?

Emmett: Has he finally lost it or something?

I smiled at them reassuringly and I knew if I could of I would have been bright, red. I took a few, unnecessary deep breathes and focused on what was going through my families heads. Keeping my thoughts and gaze away from Bella. I won't look at her again this evening. I promised myself determined.

"Have you found anything?" asked Bella, sounding extremely nervous.

"No" answered Carlisle sadly, and I couldn't help but look at her despite my promise to myself. Her face visibly fell. I tore my eyes from her distraught face, unable to stand it any longer. "However.." continued Carlisle. " I have some theories." We all held our breath in anticipation, even me who already knew what he was about to say. " Though I have never heard of any vampire with this power, nor has any of my contacts, I think that it is defiantly one. But one from your time." He paused briefly letting that sink in. " Is there anyone that you have offended or any enemies..?" He asked trailing off. She bit her lip thoughtfully. BANG!! Suddenly there was a loud crash, outside and a curse.

Bella's POV

My eyes opened a fraction wider and I twirled around, running towards the noise, I could faintly hear the others talking behind me, but I couldn't concentrate on what they were saying. MY mind was elsewhere. As I got closer a familiar sweet, scent assaulted me. It was the vampire from the forest. I slowed to a stop a few feet away, watching as he frantically tried to get away, every now and then a faint blue line of light would appear, before disappearing seconds later. That's when I knew for certain, this was my tormentor. I felt a faint breeze as the others came to a stop next to me, taking in the sight before us. He gave up trying to escape and turned round. I had never seen him before in my life.

NPOV

I have to get it right this time. For her. Dolan thought, frantic. It frustrated him having to walk at human pace to the woods, so that he could not be seen. He knew though that he had to keep up this charade. Finally he reached the woods, he ran as fast as he could, to his favourite spot, deep in the woods, secluded so there was no chance of a human stumbling along when he was in the middle of moving, between times. He desperately began forming an image of where he wanted to be in his mind, it wasn't hard as he had been there before, and Shelia had described the place to him. He knew that he didn't really need to hurry, he could appear nearly at the same time he left, if needed. But Shelia wouldn't be happy.

Slowly a blue line began to appear in the air shooting blue lighting in all directions. The crack became wider and wider till it was almost as tall as he was. Without hesitating he walked though, into a different time and place.

His body felt as if he was falling. Then his body gradually began to slow and he felt his feet touch solid ground. Or not so solid as the blue light began to dissipate, releasing his body. He felt himself, wobble, despite his enhanced, vampire balance. He was standing on the ledge of one of the Cullen's many windows, on the third floor. He toppled forward, landing with a loud crash. Cursing his haste, this is what happened when you didn't focus properly when you rush. He thought to himself, getting gingerly up, brushing himself down. Hopefully they are not home. Then he heard voices inside. Okay Hopeful they haven't heard. He thought anxiously. But no the voices where coming closer. Cursing again he tried to form another portal, somewhere else anywhere else. However he couldn't concentrate. He was to stressed, every time one started to form he would get distracted and lose it. Then he smelt them, very close and knew it was pointless. He turned around to meet his fate.
