I couldn't say I was surprised when Edward and Bella came to the station to file a restraining order against Jacob. But they got sidetracked, when he confronted them. She called to let me know what was going on and the reason that they left the station so suddenly.
What he pulled was over the top; and I couldn't get over how stupid he was for going to the Cullen property.
Another thing that I couldn't bring myself to stomach was the fact that he had chased Bella basically ever since she came back to Forks. Jacob had tried every way in the world to come between Bella and Edward, so he could have Bella for himself. Now, they tell me he had imprinted and basically staked a claim on Ren. What kind of shit was that?
After they left the station and went home, I filed my completed reports and then left myself. Jacob was locked up again for the time being, after a confrontation right here in the station parking lot. I could not have imagined the balls on Jacob that he would have attempted to put his hands on Bella after all that had occurred. He was clearly out of his mind. I decided I would stop by the Cullen place on my way home.

It had been a very emotional and stressful night and day for all of us. I was so ready for things to settle down and be somewhat normal again. We were in the middle of having a family discussion about what to do. Alice had seen Edward and Bella talking on the way back from seeing Charlie, and she had informed us we needed to begin packing to move; and we did. I loved our vampire speed; it made times like this so much easier. At least all we had to pack was personal belongings and clothes. We took a break from packing to have a meeting.
"It's time for us to move anyway, and we already have houses purchased that are ready to move into. We have our cover stories ready. The only thing left to do is change our names again, and I'm thinking it wouldn't be a bad idea if we could change our appearances at least a little bit," Alice suggested.
"That's very good thinking, darlin', very tactical. You know the wolf is not going to let this go without searching for his imprint or at least trying to," Jasper pointed out.
"Yes, you are right about that I am afraid," I said.
"What's this about changing our appearances though? We are vampires; we can't change how we look," Rose stated.
"That's where you are wrong, dear sister," Alice told her smiling.
"Okay, I'm lost; please explain," Rose told her.
"Well, for one thing, I intend to have hair extensions put in my hair; and I had a vision of Carlisle getting in contact with a vampire, whom is also a scientist. He has developed a vampire spray-on solution, something like an airbrush tan. It will allow us to have a natural human skin tone and cover up our sparkle in the sun," Alice explained.
Gasps were heard around the room; and it hit me then, which friend she was talking about. I didn't know why I had never thought of it before; the guy she was talking about was a genius. I had known him for years; we became friends when I was in Italy all those years ago. He and I had talked about him releasing his formula back then, but the Volturi had forbidden him not to. Now that the vampire world was aware of a new ruling force, he could do it. I would have to contact him immediately. Alice was right; this would be the perfect thing.
"Alice, I know exactly of whom you speak, and I will contact him as soon as we adjourn from this meeting," I told them.
"I say we adjourn now and get back to packing; we need to get finished and get gone as soon as possible," Alice said.
"Anyone have any questions before we adjourn? If not, let's be on our way," I replied.
Everyone stood up and went back to packing. It was only another hour and a half until we were done; and that included the main house, as well as Edward and Bella's cottage. We were in the process of loading everything into our cars, when Charlie pulled up; he didn't look happy at all.

I couldn't believe that the mutt thought we had come to bail him out of jail. He obviously needed mental help, if he thought for one second that Bella and I would agree to him being around our baby after all the crap he had pulled. That kidnapping scheme was enough to warrant that alone, and I was thrilled to know we would be gone very soon.
"What's going on, guys?" Charlie asked, as he walked up.
"It's time for us to move, Charlie; it's no longer safe for us to stay in Forks. Don't worry though; you will still get to see both of your girls as regular as possible," I told him.
"I'm guessing this has to do with Jacob," Charlie said.
"Yes, we discussed it and decided that a simple restraining order wouldn't be enough to keep him away, so we're moving away for quite awhile. It was getting time for us to move on anyway," I explained.
"I'll miss all of you, but I understand; I want my granddaughter to be safe and happy, so I understand," Charlie told me.
Finally, everything was loaded into the cars, and we were ready to go. Carlisle came out of the house and let us know his friend would be ready to come and meet us once we got settled. We had everything arranged with the airport as far as luggage, vehicles, and our boxes of personal belongings went; they would be on a privately owned cargo plane and would be at the airport in Canada when we got there.
By nightfall, everything was done; and we were set to leave. We said our goodbyes to Charlie and promised him that we would be in touch very soon. We gave him one of our sat phones, so we could contact him; and it wouldn't be traced like his landline could be. We wanted to take no chance of Jacob finding anything out.
After that was done, we got in our cars and took off for the airport. As promised, our cargo plane was waiting. We got out and walked inside and gave our information to the attendant.
"Mr. Platt, everything is all ready for you and your family; your private jet is waiting as well. You all can board whenever you wish," the attendant told dad.
"Thank you, miss," dad replied.
We made our way to the plane and boarded. It took a little bit, but we were finally in the air headed to our new home in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Our homes were all situated in the Alberta district.

Once we were on the plane and flying to our new home, I thought about how sad it was that Esme and I, along with Alice and Rose, had worked so hard on the nursery in the cottage. Now we wouldn't even get to use it, and the thought of that made me sad because I really liked it. We did, however, bring the baby furniture with us; I just couldn't see leaving it behind.
I suppose Edward either read my thoughts or my face; maybe both was the case because he took my hand and gently squeezed it with his own, as he studied me with a soft gaze.
"Don't fret, my love; you can change whatever you don't like about the new house," he told me.
"I just hate we did all that work for nothing though, Edward, but I guess since we are vamps it doesn't matter; we don't get tired anyway," I replied.
"I know you, Bella; you simply hate the waste of money, and you might as well admit it," he said with a chuckle.
I rolled my eyes and smiled; I knew he was right though. I did hate the waste of money; even though, we had more than plenty of it to last us for all time. I decided that once we reached our new home that I would just recreate Ren's nursery to look like the one in the cottage. My baby girl was worth it, no matter the cost or how much time it took. With vampire speed, it would take no time at all. I spent the rest of the flight enjoying being a mother and being with my loved ones. Jasper had brought his guitar; he was entertaining us by playing for the family.
The flight to Canada didn't take long at all. Once we had landed and gotten off the plane, we went inside the terminal and waited for all of our cars, luggage, and boxes to be unloaded. We rented a U-Haul truck for all of the luggage, personal boxes, and baby furniture. Edward, Emmett, Jasper, and Carlisle loaded the truck in the order that we would be stopping, so all of Carlisle and Esme's things were loaded last.
After that was done and we had everything taken care of at the airport, we got in our cars and set out for Esme and Carlisle's house first.

I have finally gotten out of jail; I had been in there for two days. Seems the judge didn't like the fact I had just made bond twenty minutes prior.
"You stay out of trouble this time, Jacob. That means stay away from my daughter and granddaughter," Charlie said, glaring at me.
I just ignored him and walked toward the woods. It was early enough in the morning that no one would see me. Once I was deep enough in that I wouldn't be seen; I phased and headed toward the Cullens and to my imprint.
When I arrived, I phased and dressed; I expected to be met by Edward forbidding me to see his daughter, but it looked like no one was around. As I got closer, it seemed like no one was around; I sniffed the air and everyone's scents were old, at least a couple of days. I wondered if they had gone hunting; I felt myself getting angry. How dare Bella put my imprint in danger! It was too cold this time of year for a human, especially an infant to be out in the wilderness.
I walked up to the house and noticed the metal blinds were down over the windows. That was strange; they wouldn't put those down for a hunting trip, so I decided to look around a bit. I ran back into the woods, phased, and found Bella's, Edward's, and Nessie's scents; they were old as well, but I decided to follow the scents. I was hoping to find them, but instead I found a little cottage with their scents all over it. I phased back and walked up to it; I found it had no alarms system like the main house undoubtedly had. I broke into the house and walked around; all of their personal items were gone. There were no clothes and no pictures, and there were dust covers over everything. There was an empty room that obviously was supposed to be a nursery.
I let out a roar of anger and ran out the door and phased to head back to town. They had moved, while I was in jail. I couldn't believe this; I had to go talk to Charlie.
"Where are they, Charlie?" I roared at him, as I entered the police station.
"Who, Jacob?" he asked calmly, as he rose from his chair. Charlie was the only one in the station, so I didn't have to worry about being quiet.
Charlie was staring at me now; he had a blank look on his face. I could tell he probably wasn't going to give away any information, but that didn't mean I wasn't going to try.
"The Cullens!" I yelled.
"Where have they taken her? I deserve to know where she is; it is my right," I said, feeling angry that he was protecting those leeches, including Bella. How could she do this to me? She was dead to me.
"HA! After all the stunts you have pulled over the past several months, you have no rights concerning that baby! No sir! If I have my way, you will never see her again. And believe me if anyone can make that happen Bella and Edward can," he replied, his voice full of hatred.
"I will find them!" I yelled and ran out the door to begin my search.
I got home and called all the surrounding airlines looking for the name Cullen and people matching their descriptions. There was nothing; it is like they had disappeared. There was no way I would be able to find them. They had been disappearing for years, and they had unlimited income. They would have to come back to Forks eventually; I just had to bide my time.
