Chapter 6
"What's this?" Another steps forward. This one has brunette hair and a scar running from under his eye to his jaw. Stepping out to reveal ourselves, Jasper hisses at them.
"This is your last few moments of life scar face. You didn't think you could hurt our family and get away scotch free did you? Oh, you did. Guess Bella's boyfriend and us will have to show you what's going to happen."
"First, we thought we would slowly remove limb from limb and stop right before you died." Emmett laughed maniacally. We were circling them, they didn't have a chance.
"And then, you will beg us to show mercy to a fellow vampire. Then we will rip out your throats, one by one so you can see the fate that you will soon meet." I growled at them. Their minds were racing to find a way to escape and survive.
"Oh, and there aren't anyways for you to escape or survive. You were basically dead the moment you took Bella."
"Wait, she's just a human. Be reasonable."
"THAT was definitely the wrong thing to say." Looking at Jasper and Emmett, I nod to them and we slowly carry out their punishment. Setting fire to their dismembered bodies, we take a step back.
"Come on let's go, I want to get back to Bella as soon as possible."
"Alright, but we should hunt first. All of our eyes are pitch black." Jasper warned. We quickly do so and run back to Forks, back to my Bella.
Entering our home, I can hear Bella's heart beat. It's still just as weak sounding as it was in Seattle. Esme, Rosalie and Alice were sitting in the living room in total silence.
'I hope she's alright. I can't imagine what this is doing to Edward.'
'Bella's going to be just fine. I can see that, but it's still hard seeing her so…broken.'
'That's what Edward get's for dating a human. Still, no one, not even Bella, should go through this. I hope those bastards died horrific slow deaths.'
Their thoughts were what I expected but they were still too much. Alice turned and saw us entering. Jumping up she flew into Jasper's arms and started dry sobbing inconsolably.
Going upstairs, I enter in the room Bella is in. Carlisle is looking over her, his thoughts are muddled. He tries to hide them but thoughts of her condition slip through.
'I hope she survives. Her death just might tear this family apart.'
Clearing my throat, he is surprised that I was already in here.
"How bad is she? I need to know everything Carlisle." If I'm going to help Bella recover, I need to know exactly what I'm dealing with even though ignorance would truly be bliss at the moment.
"I've never seen anything like it Edward. Almost all of her ribs are completely shattered. She has a punctured lung from one of them. The bruises and cuts are the least of the damage. There are bite marks all over her body, everywhere….and uh, she's in a coma right now. Her mind couldn't handle all of the stress." He was leaving out something. I could tell by the way he was literally screaming nonsense in his head.
"Carlisle! What else, was she.." He nods. I collapse into a chair and feel as if someone stabbed me in my cold dead heart. Carlisle walks to leave but places a comforting hand on my shoulder.
"She's going to recover son. She should have been long dead but she's a fighter and she's going to make it. When she wakes up, she's going to need all of us but more importantly she's going to need you to help her through this."
"I know. I know." Pulling up a chair to Bella's bed, I sit down and hold her hand. Carlisle walks out, giving me some privacy. I don't know what to expect when Bella wakes up.
"Bella, I know it may not seem like it, but things will get better. I feel like I was violated alongside you. Yeah, yeah, stupid right? It's just, you're so much a part of me and I'm not myself without you. But you have to know that we'll get through this no matter how long you need."
Running my hands through my hair, I can hear Bella's heart race. Excited that she might be coming back to us, to me, I yell out for Carlisle.
"What is it Edward, is she awake?" Carlisle asked excitedly. This was it, I was happy and anxious as to how Bella would react to everything. Focusing back on her, I'm disappointed to see that her heart beat spiked but returned to its minimalistic thumps.
((AN: So…whadaya think? Don't get your hopes up, Bella can still die. GASP! HAHA. Just kidding, she's not going to die. A few said Edward was OOC. I don't write his character well, oh well. Look for another update Saturday at the earliest.))
