Hello!! Sorry it's taken a while to get this out. My last chapter wasn't really that great and hopefully this one is better. Don't own Twilight or Bones(yes I know, I will get more creative as the story goes on).

Chapter Five

EPOV

"Would you care to tell me what the hell is going on?"

"You certainly don't waste any time at all…don't beat around the bush much do you?"

She hid her gaze from me as I asked. She suddenly seemed interested in the rock, staring at it like she'd never seen one before.

"How quickly can you get back to Forks?"

I shrugged. We hadn't told her anything yet and I don't think we planned to any time soon. She never questioned our habits when she was over, though I know she noticed. But, there was never any question pertaining to our eating habits or our never ending energy at three in the morning. She trusted our judgment and opinions without a second thought.

It was unnerving and downright odd.

Rosalie, of course, mentioned this whenever we could and suggested that we stayed away from her. She didn't hate Bella… she just didn't want her life to change anymore than it needed to (which for her, was no change at all). But, she tolerated Bella because Emmett adored her so much and she made him happy.

Bella sighed.

She touched a small object resting on her chest and almost immediately turned back into the wolf I had been hunting. I rubbed my eyes a couple of times to be sure that I wasn't hallucinating. So much for those clothes she brought.

Come on. I can get you back faster than you can.

I shook my head and took a step back, raising my hands to stop her if necessary. "You've really lost it Bella." She rolled her eyes. Before I could stop her, she charged at me then ducked, her body sliding along the snow, causing me to end up on her back (at least I think that's what happened). She shot off through the forest, leaving the clearing in the dust.

Hang on tight!

What? Her legs slowed for a second, before the muscles tightened and she jumped, throwing us into the air. I yelled in surprise as her thoughts giggled in glee at my reaction. As she danced along the treetops, my hands closed around the fur on her back, not only because I was afraid she would fall and hurt herself, but also because heights aren't my thing. I avoided the family trips where high places were involved.

Afraid pretty boy?

I growled at her as she laughed.

Don't worry. I won't let you fall. Just find something to stare at and we'll be back before you know it.

I focused on the fur I held tightly. It was very smooth and soft, and it actually smelled amazing. Now that I was in control of my mind, I noticed that her scent hadn't changed at all. It was still the inviting and pleasing aroma of freesia and strawberries. So, she couldn't be a werewolf (or a shape shifter; whatever you want to call those filthy mutts.) But, I could clearly hear and feel her heart beating quickly beneath my fingertips, so vampire it out too. But then what is left? I felt her body fall, as she jumped down from the treetops.

Off you go.

Again, her body slid flat along the dirt, depositing me back onto solid ground. How did she do that? She sank onto the ground, panting. "Bella?" She shook her head.

Can you go get me either some of your or Alice's clothes? Mine are…well gone.

I nodded and began to run, at human pace, into the white mansion before me. I quickly grabbed one of my shirts and a pair of basketball shorts, hurrying back outside. I handed them over and she trotted into the forest, leaving me with my thoughts. What could she possibly be? I sat against a tree and closed my eyes as I thought, letting my mind wander through all the possibilities.

Maybe it was only my imagination. I mean, yes I did see her change from a human to a wolf, but even vampires lose their minds sometimes. I couldn't have almost killed my closest human friend…whom I had mistaken to be my prey. She was only in the right (or wrong) place at the right (or wrong) time…. Right? I groaned and shifted my head into my hands.

"You alright Edward?"

I lifted my head again to gaze at Bella. She normally looked amazing in anything she wore, but to see her in my clothes… no, she's only a friend. Nevertheless, I had to look away…I am not attracted to Bella in that way at all. Only a friend, nothing more.

"Yeah I'm fine. Are you going to explain everything to me know?"

It came out a little colder and harsher than I had intended, but she didn't seem to mind. Plus, I don't know about you, but I would personally really like to know why I almost killed one of my best friends.

"Is your family back yet? If I'm going to tell you everything, I'd rather only say it once."

I searched as far as I could for someone's mind, but I came up with nothing, even with Bella, though that was expected. I couldn't normally hear her anyway.

"No, they haven't returned yet." She sighed.

"Then we are going to wait."

I sighed in annoyance, but agreed. We began walking back towards the house, simply enjoying the fresh air. Well, I was trying to rid myself of any anger left over so I could more easily speak once my family arrived. And I was enjoying Bella's scent as well, but that's just me. We reached the house in silence and sat on the porch. She leaned up against the nearest post and closed her eyes, resting her hands behind her head.

I shouldn't have, but I allowed my eyes to wander over her beautiful figure. Her shimmering brown hair with the light red tint, her perfectly shaped nose, her full pink lips…. And then, I saw the necklace resting on her chest. It was an unusual stone, one I had never really seen before. It reminded me of some type of jade, but white jade was so rare… My hand stretched out to touch it, when someone jerked me out of my thoughts.

"What are you doing?"

I immediately dropped my hand and turned towards my family, all of whom had irritating smiles on their faces. I glared. "Nothing. We were waiting for you."

"What he means is that he almost killed me while he was on his 'camping' trip, and now he owes me an explanation." Bella had opened her eyes and was staring at me very seriously. I turned to her and glared again. "You mean you owe me an explanation. None of this would have happened if you hadn't been there." She rolled her eyes as I growled at her. Returning my glare, I could see no fear whatsoever in her eyes after I growled, almost as if she didn't notice it at all… or she didn't care.

"Oh, so it's my fault you nearly killed me because I was taking a little vacation in Alaska? Wow, that one's new. I've been blamed for a lot of things, but never the pure instinct to kill." I didn't realize it at the time, but the next words that came out of my mouth were the ones I would regret for many things to come. "If you hadn't been that stupid animal in the first place and you had stayed here where you belong…"

She tackled me to the ground, actually pinning me. I mean, I really couldn't move. Her lips grazed my ear as she snarled into it, "Don't you dare call my family's ability stupid. I don't go around calling your family's habits and abilities stupid, so lay off mine alright?"

She quickly rose and dashed away into the forest. Carlisle said that it was probably best if we stayed away from her for some time, long enough for her to both cool off and hopefully forget the whole matter. So, my conversation with her was the last time anyone in my family spoke to her that week. Something that I would regret.

I know my anger with Edward was completely irrational, but that fact that I was accidentally blamed for the whole incident really ticked me off. It wasn't either of our faults… I mean we can't control what we are; we can only live with it. But it still made me angry. So, I avoided them. It hurt to ignore the Cullens, especially Edward, but perhaps it was better for the both of us if we stopped contacting each other. But it still hurt a lot. Instead, I hung around the kids that considered themselves my friends. I did my best to enjoy myself, but I couldn't relate to kids like Mike and Jessica as well as Edward and Alice.

The week passed just like that. But, Friday was different, not that I noticed at the time. I walked by the Cullens table at lunch, barely looking as I continued to my 'new' table, as usual. Mike and Jessica were sitting together (because Jessica is so subtle about her life), it came as no surprise since they were dating. Ben and Angela were as well, and they were the ones I felt most comfortable with. We were sitting at the table together, when Mike got up for some reason, spilling his drink everywhere….

I woke up in the middle of a bathroom floor. My head hurt like crazy and I could feel blood slowly running down my arms. I could smell the rusty scent everywhere as I stumbled around to actually stand. I gripped onto the closest thing I could and hauled myself off the ground. Of course, I had managed to grip the sink… which led to the mirror….which led to me running out the door. I raced down the stairs and out into the street. Cars honked and swerved as I ran out onto the highway, heading towards…anywhere but there. I heard someone yelling at me to first, get out of the street, and second, get to the hospital.

I had to stop running after about fifteen minutes. Normally, I would have kept going, kept pushing my leg, but with the laceration on it….a normal human would barely be able to walk without limping and let's just forget about running. I just kept walking until I found something that looked familiar. As odd as this sounds, I found a dead tree that I recognized. I headed into the forest and tried running again. I finally came upon the house I needed to reach. I threw open the front door and walked into the living room. Charlie was sitting on the couch, his eyes red and puffy from tears and his face wrinkled in worry.

"Oh god Bella!"

He rushed up to me faster than I've ever seen a cop move and gathered me in a hug. Tears streamed down his face as he clutched me against his chest, rather tightly might I add. I heard cars pulling up into the driveway. "We're sorry Chief but there's no… Bella!" Five or six other officers came in and joined in our hug. I just kinda stood in the middle, a bit awkwardly. I hadn't been gone that long had I? Charlie knew that I didn't always come home for various reasons and it never really worried him, at least not after the first time. "Chief uh… I'm kinda beat up…"

He immediately released me, afraid he was hurting me in some way. "Bella, where have you been? What happened?" I was about to answer, when my mind came up blank. At this point, the Cullens ran inside, only to stop at the front door. Only Carlisle continued forward. All the others were frozen, probably by the smell of my blood. As much as I hate doing it, I needed to open my mind to Edward.

Edward, get your family out.

He looked at me in shock. Clearly, he couldn't read my mind on a normal day (yes I do know that). If any one of them slipped...I shudder to think of what would happen. Though my blood appeared human, it was demon inside and out. One tiny sip from me, and there's no stopping the lust. Not only will I be dead, but whatever vampire gets the taste.... they won't stop until there's nothing left.... of not only the unfortunate demon, but of the demon world itself. Luckily, any case in which that happened, the vampire exposed themselves before they could find my home.

Anyway, Edward was about to open his mouth when I cut him off. Just shut up and listen. His mouth audibly snapped shut. Go, it's alright. He led his family out of the house surprisingly with no argument on his part. I jumped up onto the counter as Carlisle pulled out his medical kit and began cleaning my wounds. Edward came back in ten minutes later, much to my surprise.

"Edward, you shouldn't be here." He shook his head.

"Bella.. do you have any idea how worried we were?" I raised my eyebrow in confusion.

"Why? I was only gone for one night. Charlie's used to that." His eyes widened in shock, then he shook his head for some reason. A sudden knock on the door brought me to attention. It was Mrs. Newton. Her gaze immediately fixed on me. "You! Where is my son? What have you done with him?" I glanced at Edward. "I haven't seen Mike since yesterday Mrs. Newton."

She screamed, "YOU DO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM! MY SON'S BEEN MISSING SINCE FRIDAY, WHEN YOU WERE LAST SEEN WITH HIM! WHERE IS MY BABY BOY!?!" Friday? "Wait, he's been missing since yesterday?" She grabbed my shirt and pushed me off the counter, into Edward's waiting arms. His arms formed a protective cage around me, his body shielding mine from anything and everything. "Today is Monday you idiot!"

Monday....I turned to Edward, "Today's Monday?" He nodded. "What happened to Saturday and Sunday?" He said nothing, only pulled me closer as I froze. Charlie touched my shoulder. "Bella, I need to know what happened." I took a deep breath and racked my brain for anything that could help. But I really couldn't remember. "I honestly don't know. The last thing I remember is Mike spilling his drink... then nothing." And that was almost three days ago. I clung closer to Edward as Mrs. Newton continued yelling, but she was the last thing I was concerned about.

Where was Mike?

I hope you all liked that. Yes I know, I am incredibly obsessed with the show Bones and I am not at all ashamed to admit it. There is a pattern that I am going to show in the next chapter. If you can figure it out, let me know ^_^. Please review. I've been rather bored at 1 in the morning so I will probably be writing.
