As Bella finally saw land again she was ecstatic. She hated flying over ocean. All the water spray. Bella was surprised by the lights of New York City. It was more spectacular than she imagined.

Then there was all the northern farmland. Bella decided to avoid the great lakes, didn't want more water on herself. Bella knew if she stayed on this path she would reach Washington State. Also according to the map on the machine Forks was near the coast so as soon as she hit the Pacific Ocean she knew she would be close.

Bella was enjoying the speed of the Firebolt. This journey so far was only going to take a couple of hours. On most other brooms if would have taken a bit longer. Bella never did like long journeys.

All of a sudden Bella saw some bright light up ahead; she was hopeful that this was Seattle ahead. Bella was really beginning to have a sore arse. As she got closer she saw the top of what was known as the space needle. She saw pictures of this structure at the bookstore in Diagon Alley.

Bella decided to stop at the top of the needle. She would enter the muggle world from here. Then next she would need to walk around and find a map that would lead her to where she wanted to go. Also this would give her a point of reference of the city around her.

As she put her broom in her bag she pulled out her wand to give it a wave. Apparently there was no one inside the building so she jumped down to the observation deck. Bella went to the first door she found and unlocked it so she could get in. Then Bella wondered around. She looked for a lift like contraption that the muggles used to go up and down.

As she walked around, Bella got a great view of Seattle. She could see the attraction to have a design like this. Bella after walking around for 10 minutes she finally saw a door like structure. So she waved her wand at the door and after a few minutes the door opened. Bella waved her wand again and the lift moved down.

As she reached the bottom and the door opened Bella began to look around. There were glass doors. There were a few people walking around so Bella went into the shadows. Bella waited, it took about half an hour for her to see no one around for the foreseeable distance. Bella walked back out, she looked around and waved her wand for all the electronic devises she needed to erase. Then she waved her wand again, unlocked the door and walked out. She relocked the door and started walking out onto the street.

Bella put her wand back into her pocket and started to walk in the direction in front of her.

As she walked she started to notice her surroundings she realized that Seattle wasn't really that bad. It seemed even cleaner than London. The area around her she noticed wasn't really bad. As she walked up ahead she noticed a lighted building with a Shell sign on it. Also their apparently were cars in front of it, so she took as it was a business that was still open.

As she got closer, Bella realized that is was a petrol station. As she walked closer it appeared to be a 24 our establishment. Some of the fellow patrons noticed that she walked in and started to pay attention to what she was doing. Bella noticed some of the males paying her notice, but she decided to keep on going in. Since this was a petrol station she was hoping that it had maps of the local area.

Bella saw that there was an attendant; she decided to speed this along by asking him instead of wandering around. Her hackles were raised after walking in, by the other patrons and she wanted to exit quickly.

Bella walked up to the counter and looked for the attendant. He finally decided to appear from the back room. He was blonde, a little chubby around the mid section and his name tag stated: Mike.

Bella started, "Hello Mike, I would like a map of the state of Washington. Do you have any?"

Mike just stood there stupefied for a moment, and then he stuttered, "Yes they're next to the door. You can take one if you like no charge." He finished with a grin.

Bella just turned and saw the stand. She turned back and said, "Thanks." Then she went grabbed the one that she needed and walked right back out. She put the map in her back pocket and walked towards the alley. The previous guys who were filling up their cars noticed and moved towards the same direction.

They heard a car backfire and as soon as they reached the alley, they couldn't find the pretty brunette that just walked in.

Bella had just apparated to a joining building and watched to stupid, disgusting males that tried to follow her.

Bella pulled out the map and her wand. She laminated her wand and unfolded her map. She looked over it and found Seattle. The space needle was marked on the map. She correlated where the space needle was to her and the body of water that was just to the right of her. Bella realized then looked for Forks. It was located on the peninsula, just west of where she was.

Bella then turned to her right and took off. After going over the bodies of water she came upon the forest. After the forest, there was a road then an ocean. She pulled out her map and since she went straight according this map, Forks should be north of her. She decided to follow the road north. Bella found following the road was irritating, but it took her right towards her destination. Bella pulled out her pocket watch and was glad that it kept time not matter where she was. According to the watch it was 3 am here in the state of Washington. It took her another 10 minutes to reach the one stop light town.

Bella found the local hospital and decided to wait there. Since Dumbledore only knew where one of the Cullens would be, and really he was a doctor at the local hospital she decided for tonight to set up camp on top of the hospital to wait for Carlisle to show up.

Bella pulled out her wand and conjured up a chair. She sat it down facing the parking lot. She took a seat and now it was time to wait. Bella reached into her bag and pulled out a book. She had decided back in England to start with what the muggles called the classics. The jacket of Wuthering Heights sounded interesting, but so far it was strange.

The main character, Heathcliff, going after the daughter of the women who he claimed to love earlier in his life. Bella was going to finish the novel but didn't really understand how the muggles could classify it as a classic.

A couple of hours later it seemed that people were coming in. Bella was hoping for a possible shift change. She was really hoping that Carlisle was going home, not coming in, but Bella was really considering herself lucky right now.

Yet Bella was lucky because after another hour of waiting and no vampire showing up, she finally saw one leaving. He was tall and blonde. He headed towards a black car and Bella grabbed her broom and took off. She went high enough in the air to not be seen by the public, yet she still had his car in her sights.

He went through Forks and all the way towards the opposite side of town and went even further. Bella appreciated the fact that he drove quickly because she didn't want to stay up in the air to long, especially out in the open.

All of a sudden he made a sharp turn into the woods. Bella dove down to where Carlisle turned. She landed at the end of an unpaved road. Bella decided to walk the way he drove. It was quite a distance but Bella realized it was a driveway. She then went into the woods. She wanted to be far enough away from the house to not be noticeable yet close enough to know the coming and goings of the occupants.

She still angled her direction towards the house. Bella found this really big tree with a direct view of the house; also it was far enough away that she doubted that the vampires would come this way.

Bella took off her bag and grabbed her tent to set it up. Bella took out her wand and waved it at her tent. She watches the tent set itself up. Next she walked around her campsite area and began enchanting the area to hide her tent. She didn't need vampires seeing her camp in the yard and she didn't need death eaters knowing she was here. Then she walked into her tent to put her bag away. She put her wand in her pocket and reformed herself into her animal form.

Bella loved her animal form and she decided to crawl up the tree. She found a nice big branch that faced the house and she could see inside the living room. Bella decided to lay down on the branch and watch. Apparently everyone converged to downstairs to meet for some reason.

Bella took note of who she saw, She saw Carlisle first considering she recognized him from the hospital. His arms were around a shorter woman with a shoulder length brown hair. Next to him was another couple, the male was tall and blonde his arms were around a really short woman with black hair that was in spikes. She was dressed unusually for Bella's standards. The next couple was both of them were tall. The male was big and burly, and really big. The female next to him was extremely attractive with long blonde hair.

As they were standing and talking to each other one more vampire descended the stairs. As soon as Bella got a good look at him her breath caught in her throat.
