-Bella-

I didn't know what to do, so I did everything on instinct. I shut down. I was scared and confused. How could anyone love someone like me? A worthless, broken girl good for nothing but sating Charlie's rage.
"Take me home, please" I asked Alice, she nodded.
"I don't see anything bad coming. Bella, can you tell me why you so hard to see?" Alice asked, seeing my confusion she continued.

"I'm physic, I can see the future depending on people choices, but yours is so hard to find" I shook my head, not trusting myself to talk. Was it maybe due to the fact that little over 9 years ago, when my mother started her abuse on me, I decided I had no future? I didn't know. Alice nodded and took me again in her slender arms; I flinched on instinct but didn't tell her to put me down.

We were at my house in seconds.
"Edward went to get your car, he will drop it off" Alice said as she set me to my feet. I walked to the door.
"Thanks Alice" I said out of habit. Why was I so weak… so terribly weak. I went inside, 20 minutes later I heard my trucks engine. They didn't knock, they left the truck in the driveway and left.

I sat on my bed, curled up in a ball and created distance between my mind and reality. I put my mind in the void of darkness in the back of my mind, where nothing could reach it. Minutes, hours or days could have passed and I wouldn't have known.

-Charlie-

That bitch had skipped school today… I needed to teach her a lesson. I bought some duct tape from a hardware shop. How dare she skip school. Where did she go through? Friends, she didn't have any. Boyfriend- unlikely, she was too withdrawn. That beautiful girl was nothing but a tool.

I growled as I drove home, my shift finally over. Isabella Marie Swan was being a naughty girl, time for her punishment.

-Edward-

Alice and I watched Bella from the trees, she fell asleep only five minutes ago. I was still hurt…she had withdrawn herself. Whether it was instinct, fear or both, I couldn't be sure why. We heard the low rumble of a police car before we saw it, immediately knowing it was Charlie.

The exact moment the car came within hearing distance, Alice's eyes clouded over in a vision.

"Bella, why did you skip school" Charlie asked as he waited at Bella's door.
"I think we need to have 'the talk'" Charlie said.

The vision ended? That was it? I growled in frustration.

"I can't say for sure, but I think Charlie wants to have a talk about boyfriends and using protection at that stuff. Isn't that what 'the talk' is" Alice said.
"He doesn't look angry, and he doesn't show any signs of anger or that he's about to abuse her. We should give her some privacy Edward, we already agreed that he does it on impulse, when he is extremely mad, he isn't mad now." Alice said. She was right.

We had figured that Charlie didn't plan it out; he did it on impulse, though we hadn't gotten Jasper to see his emotions on whether he regrated it. He wasn't angry. Reluctantly, I left her for some privacy. We ran back to our house, no matter how hesitant or reluctant I was to leave her out of hearing distance.

I sat down on my couch in my room, browsing through my many CD's until I found Debussy. I put it on, hoping it would calm me. Jasper, Emmitt, Rosalie and Alice all entered my room five minutes later.

"Ok, we need to come up with a system. She is too perceptible, her eye sight is too good for you to nod and shake your head when we throw mental questions at you" Emmitt said and we all nodded our agreement.

Alice grinned like a Cheshire cat. "It's simple. Cough for yes, clear your throat for no"
"One problem solved. Two, how good are her senses?" Jasper asked, ever the tactical one.
"Well she could smell blood, and she can see us move. I would say close to ours. But what is she?"
"Eleazar" We all said in synchronisation. Internet would be unreliable, and so we called on one of the oldest friends we had.

We called his home phone number, he picked up on the third ring.

"Eleazar, we need your help."
"Ah, Edward, tell me what do you need help with." Came his reply.
"There is a girl here, but she isn't human. What do you know that matches pale, heightened senses and intelligent? " Alice asked.

"Well, what is her last name? If any of her older relatives, great, great grandparents perhaps, were supernatural, I would know." That was Eleazar, he knew everyone.
"Swan" I said. We had to do some research on her mother to find her birth name if we needed it.

"Swan…well there is a lot to choose from, young friends." That surprised us all.
"Are you referring to the daughter of Charlie Swan in Forks?"
"Yes, the girl, Bella Swan, isn't merely human"

"No, she isn't completely human, though nobody can really tell her what she is now. They were killed some time ago." We all froze. Bella Swan wasn't completely human…
"What is she?"

Ah, so miss Bella isn't merely human. How does she not know? Her supernatural grandparents were killed before they could tell her…or Charlie. Don't forget to review.
