I Do not own any of these characters. Story came to me in a dream I had like many of these stories I write. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.

Bella

Chapter 4

Doctor Carlisle keeps trying during our sessions to get me to speak, Which leaves us both frustrated.

I really would like to tell him what is going on and why I don't speak but I cant make the sounds leave me. I feel like im betraying Riley. Today is going to be a rough session, I can just feel it as I walk into his office and sit down. I pulled my pen and paper out of my bag and plopped down in the oversized chair across from his desk.

"Hello Bella."

I hear him sigh as I throw my hand up in a wave. He really shouldn't expect anything different. We have been through this many times already.

"How are you enjoying the camp?"

I quickly scribble my answer on to the paper and turn it over to show him.

"Will you ever speak to me Bella?"

I shook my head no as I scribbled down an explanation in my notebook.

"What can I do to help? I really want to help you Bella."

I wrote down my response and turned it to him.

What if I don't want help? What if speaking means betraying Riley.

"Who is Riley?"

I shook my head no and jumped up and ran out of the room nearly crashing into Edward as I ran out the front door. I headed down to the lake and pulled my knees up to my chin. I stared at the water and let the tears fall. Today will be ten years to the date that it all happened. I tried to help him I really did but I let him down. I heard the foot steps as they approached.

"Bella, what's wrong? Why did you run out of our session. If you tell me maybe I can help."

I just sat there and stared tears rolling.

"Does it have to do with why you don't talk?"

I just nodded.

"Carlisle! You need to come see the tv." Esme practically shouted as she approached us.

"What is it?"

"Several hundred people have died off the coast of Japan but when the coroner went to do the autopsy they walked away."

"Then they weren't dead."

"But they were.I recorded it. Come on. Its all over the tv anyways."

She sounded scared. I hopped up, wiped my eyes and followed her after a glance to Carlisle who stood and followed us.

I sat down on the floor in front of the tv and watched as the reporter gave another chilling report.

"Bodies that have been buried for years are starting to rise from their graves and walk around towns in Japan. The scientists have no explanations and are just as baffled as we are. Travel to and from Japan has been suspended for the time being. More on this just after the break.

"What does this mean Doc?" Emmett asked after Esme turned off the tv.

"I don't know kids I really don't know."

I was shaking and then it hit me if it was happening over there then it would eventually hit here. Wouldn't it?

"I knew it. It has to have something to do with the reason that the air is getting colder and its only July. It's usually so hot that you have to practically run around naked this time of year." Alice said.

I looked up at her as she jumped up.

"I told you Carlisle that the Zombie Apocolypse was going to hit soon. You didn't believe me." she said with tears in her eyes as she stormed up the stairs to her room.

It was feeling cooler outside. The thermometer on the wall beside the pool earlier had only read 68 but it was a slightly over cast day. Could Alice be right? Could the events in Japan have anything to do with here?
