Edward

"That's it. I'm going after her." I told Carlisle. It's been two or three hours since Bella and Renesmee left. They have never been gone this long. Never. He nodded. I walked out the front door and stopped at the edge of the porch, looking around in case they were coming out of the woods. No, they weren't, but there was a slight breeze in the air.

"Edward!"

"Carlisle!" I shouted, urgency clear in my voice, and raced for the forst. Carlisle caught up to me and we followed Bella's scent trail. We had searched half of the forest in a matter of seconds, when I saw a shape on the ground a few yards away.

"Bella!" I called. I cleared the distance between us quickly. Bella was on the ground, shaking uncontrollably. There were faint sobs and whimpers coming from her. I knelt beside her and pulled her into my arms. "Bella? What's wrong? Where's Renesmee?"

"Edward. . ." Bella moaned. She looked up at me with tortured glazen eyes, before dipping her head again. "Edward, he took her."

I stood back up, pulling her with me. She leaned against me and I supported all her weight, wrapping my arms around her tiny waist.

"Who bella?" Carlisle asked. His face was paler, making him seem older. His eyes were tight, the corners crinkled, with worry and was a minute of silence, before I spoke.

"Caius." I growled through tightly clamped teeth. Bella's shield had crashed down, due to the fact that she was so emotional at the moment, but in that moment I saw everything. How scared she was, how much she blamed herself, how she was afraid that I was mad at her. It was too much and my face of calm faltered for an instant, but I recovered it quickly.

Bella pushed away from me, walked forward a few feet, then whiped around. Carlisle and I took a step back, both of us equally surprised, by how much hate was in her eyes. It was like there was a flame of fire hidden behind each black pupil.

"He is going to pay. I will kill him myself if I have to. I am getting Renesmee back, one way or another." she snarled.

A look of shock crossed Carlisle's face before disappearing. "Bella, please. I want her back, too. After all, she is my grand-daughter, but let's be reasonable. If you kill Caius, then the whole Volturi will come after you, and I don't want to lose you."

"No, Carlisle! I'm not going to be reasonable. I've tried being reasonable. We've tried being reasonable and that didn't work. I even tried being nice and they take her! I am done being reasonable!" Bella screamed. She took a deep breath.

"I'm sorry, I just want my baby back," she said in a small frightened voice.

"I know, Bella. I'm sure we will all feel that way." Carlisle said. He walked over and pulled her into an he said, mostly trying to reassure her, "We will get Renesmee back."

"I can't even imagine how scared she must feel right now." Bella whispered, as I took her hand, and we headed back to the house.
