A/n Really short. Haha sorry. But anyways I just wanted to make a bit of a suggestion to listen to the song In for the Kill by La Roux Skeam's remix. I was listening to it while writing this chapter and it just heightens the experience. ENJOY!

Chapter 20: Edward's Pov

I grabbed the warmest jacket I had in my closet; Luckily Alice just buys whatever piece of clothing she thinks is cute. The flashlights we don't need those either but I don't think Bella's ready for our little secret. I'll use it when we find Bella to make like we can't see anything that is if she's awake when we find her. Oh GAWD I hope we find her! I ran down to the dining room where we'd gather to discuss how we're going about this. I entered the silent room; everyone deep in thought.

"Now that Edwards here we can start. So…how should we do this?" Carlisle asked. He was determined to find his newly found human daughter. Its amazing just in one week Bella, a human, captured our unbeating hearts.

"Well…I think we should all spread out but no more than 2 miles apart from each other." Jasper said.

"That's a great idea that way we can gain more ground that way and we won't be too far from each other if we find her or anything." Carlisle pointed out.

"Yes, exactly Carlisle, we should have an order of standing though, that way we know whose names to call out when we find her." Jasper said.

"Ok it'll be me, and then Jasper, followed by Edward, followed by Carlisle, then Esme, then Rose, and lastly will be Emmett" Alice informed us.

"Are we still hunting though?" asked Rose voicing her appearance.

"We have to because Bella's blood will be more potent when we find her" Alice answered.

"Oh my we all have to be more alert and try not to let our sense take us over." Esme said I find the hunt part very dangerous. I don't know what I'd do if I was the cause of my daughter's death. I've already lost one child I do not wan to lose another one.

"Esme's right everyone must be more alert!" Carlisle said in hopes of comforting Esme.

With that we ran out of the house at vampire speed; wasting no time on finding my angel. I can just picture her now the blood drained from her face making her look pale and deeply ill. Her lips tremble as her body shivers from being so cold. The fire cant last much longer unless she adds more wood or if she has it going on in some kind of shelter. What if it burns the ceiling and Bella's too out of it to really notice, then it collapses on top of her burning beyond saving! Then we won't be able to even save her either or we'd die along with her! I have to run as fast as I can and find her! But first I need to take care of my thirst.

I stopped letting my sense take over my body but not fully. My ears listening intently, my nose smells the moist soil below my feet, my mouth creating a pool of venom as I sensed a bear not more than 100 yards away from me. I took off running towards my prey like a mountain lion. As I got closer I climbed up a tree flying branch to branch just hovering above the ground. The bear knew nothing of my presence and by the time it caught on, I lunged my body to it sinking my teeth into its neck as soon as our bodies collided. It yelped and cried as it laid there defense less under my grasp. I bear attempted to claw at my body only to claw at nothing but air. Finally its arms just dropped to the side and the bear let out one last cry as I sucked the blood out of its body. I shoved its body away from me as I stood up.

I could sense the others all had caught at least one animal already. That's good so at least we could resist Bella a lot easier now but I know I need to feed one or two more times before I, myself, can control my thirst.

Once again I allowed my sense to take over me but I didn't have to even move from my spot before a mountain lion growled at me. I turned to the right to face it. I looked straight into his eyes reading that it wanted me to get off his territory. I stared it down not moving an inch of my body. The lion let out a roar before running and jumping towards me. I caught it by its mane and swung it to the ground. The lion cried out in pain and stood back up before it could be cornered and ran towards Jasper's direction. I chased after it not wanting to let it get away from me. The fact that it was my favorite made me even more thirsty then I was before I attacked the bear. I continued to chase it getting ever so closely, the scent trailing behind its body causing my throat to burn. I pounced onto its back after jumping off of a fallen tree. I rode the lion like a jockey on a horse till I sunk my teeth into its neck the lion began slowing down and soon its legs collapsed underneath us. I drank its blood greedily as each drop invaded my mouth. The burning in my throat began to subside with each ounce. I stood from my place beside the dead, stone, cold corpse.

I had my fill of animals for now, at least enough to concentrate on finding Bella. I ran back in the direction of the bear to resume my place in the line. As I got closer my senses could smell a delicious scent. I knew it didn't belong to an animal it smelled more like a human. To make matters worse the human was bleeding badly. Before I knew my body made a turn and ran in the direction of the human. On my way there I saw Jasper running in the same direction as I was. I violently shook my head to clear my thoughts and gained control of my actions. I kept running towards the human and dialed Carlisle's number. I could already hear Alice's thoughts as she came running closer to intercede Jasper.

"EDWARD did you find her?" Carlisle answered after the first ring.

"Unfortunately no and luckily yes" I said into the phone.

"What is it then Edward? Wait what do you mean unfortunately no and luckily yes?"

"Carlisle there's a human in the direction we're going. Jazz must've smelled their scent while he was hunting. He's running towards them now, Alice and I are running towards him to try and stop him from killing the human. But the worst part is the human is bleeding pretty bad, the scent is getting stronger and stronger as we get closer. Hurry so you can help!" I said then hung up. I couldn't talk on the phone and chase after Jazz. It's a good thing I'm the fastest runner.

I forced myself to go faster then I was starting out. I had to pull ahead of Jasper so I can stop him from getting any closer. I kept weaving side to side dodging trees and branches as I ran. I've never ran so fast before my feet gliding across the forest floor; taking two feet of distance with each step. I was practically flying.

"This human smells so delicious. I can practically taste their blood trickle down my throat." Jazz thought. I jumped right in front of his path about 50 feet away from where the human laid.

"Jazz, come on, you gotta snap out of it." I said as his body clashed into me causing us to fall on the floor. I rolled us over so that he was beneath me. I restrained his arms above his head as I sat on top of him. "Jazz, you're not gonna like yourself if you do this. Think about how much disappointment you'll cause to yourself and to Alice." He managed to free his arms from my grasp and pushed me off of him in the chest. I stumbled back a little and saw my pixie sister fly past me and on to the back of her beloved. I ran towards them hoping and praying Carlisle was with the human right now as we took care of Jazz.

"Jazz, please, don't do this!" Alice cried "Don't do this it'll tear you apart if you do. You wont be able to live with yourself and…you wont be able to even look me in the eye." She sniffed before the last part. Oh please Jazz don't do this I don't want to lose you. She thought to herself.

I pulled ahead of them about 10 feet; the human's body was now insight, no more then 20 feet away from us. I could see that it was a guy camping out here somewhere in the woods. I couldn't find a camp site any where near here but I could tell he's been camping for awhile. Alice hopped off of Jazz's back seeing that when I caught him I'd turn our bodies so that he'd fall on his back. I restrained him in the position I had him before while Alice was to my right. She placed her hands on both the sides of his face. "Jazzy baby please listen to me." she pleaded. "You're better than this, you are not a monster. Please come to your senses. Do it for Bella, think about it if you act this way she cant live with us please. Then I wont have a new sister to dress up or you wont have a little sister to look after. Come on, please do it for me!"

Jasper's arms began to weaken and the fight to be freed slowly subsided. His eyes returned back to a golden brown color. His body went limb and eyes stared straight as if he were hypnotized. I reluctantly released him from my hold and got off of him. Alice took over my spot and continued to look him in the eyes. Thank you jazzy thank you!

I looked in the direction of the body; Carlisle was already there examining him. Esme, Rose, and Emmett were just coming into view. I approached Carlisle hesitantly as he continued his examination. I stepped on something that had fallen a few feet away from the body. It was a compass I flipped over to the back where it read "Don't forget you promise to come back to me, Love Christine." My heart sank as I read the engraving. I hope my Bella comes back to me. I placed the compass into my pocket and stood behind Carlisle. I looked behind me to see the rest of the family standing there waiting. Jasper held Alice in his arms lovingly as she dry sobbed into his chest.

Thank you Edward! Esme thought to me. I answered her with just a simple nod. What else do I say I didn't just do it because I had to, I did it because Jasper is my brother no matter if its by blood or not.

I turned my attention back to Carlisle. He stood up from the body and turned to face me. "Its too late now. He's been here for about 14 hours and he lost a lot of blood. There's nothing I could do for him. He still may be bleeding but he's been dead for the past hour." He announced to the family.

"How did he die?" I asked.

"By a vampire." He answered simply.

We began walking towards the family to join them. Carlisle embraced Esme in a huge then kept his left arm encircled around her waist. "What do we do now?" asked Emmett.

Alice removed her face from Jasper's chest but kept her arms around him and said "Bella's not here its too far. We're practically at the boarder of Canada. We should head home and start looking for her from there. We're already spent 3 and a half hours on this side we should start looking towards the La push boundaries. We wont pass it I can see that but I still cant see if we'll find Bella yet."

"What about the vampire that killed this man, what do we do?" Esme asked.

"There's nothing we can do except keep an eye out for them. We also have to make sure that vampire doesn't find Bella. We should probably hurry and get going." Carlisle answered.

"What I don't get is why the body wasn't fully drained." I said.

"There's no time for that now. Come on!"

We all took off in the direction of the house. We didn't split up like we had when we were searching for Bella. Instead we stayed in a tight group with Alice and Jasper in the middle. I hope we find Bella in time. Not only do we have to compete with nature getting to her now we have a human drinking vampire to beat.
