It Ends Tonight.

EPOV.

I drove around helplessly, looking for any sign out of the ordinary that could lead me to Bella.

James shouted at me over the radio continuously until I got sick of it and turned it off.

I finally got my sign on the third pass of the docks. A light flickered on in one of the top windows of the smaller warehouses. I took an abrupt right turn, much to the anger and dismay of on-coming traffic. I left the blaring of their horns behind me. The roads were much quieter around the docks. Most of the fishermen and deckhands had either set sail or finished for the day.

I glanced at the clock on the dash. The little orange numbers highlighted the fact that it was seven pm already.

Bella had been missing for five hours.

"Please god, let her be okay." I prayed out loud.

I turned the radio back on and tuned it into the police frequency. None of them had even bothered to look by the docks. I pulled down a side road between two large warehouses and picked up the radio.

"James, this is Edward. Do you copy? Over."

No reply. I repeated my words until I eventually got through.

"CULLEN! Where the fuck are you? Get your ass back here now!" He yelled.

"No James. I need a police unit as back-up by the docks at the north end of the harbour."

"Have you found Bella?"

"No. But I have a feeling she is here."

"I'm not asking Marcus to send out units on a 'feeling' when they could be of use elsewhere. Get back here now!"

"Sorry James, no can do. I'm going in." I dropped the radio on the front seat, ignoring the yells from James and Marcus, and pulled out my gun. "Here I come Bella."

BPOV.

The room was blurry and there was blood all down my front. Renee was crying in Phils arms. The bastard was comforting her.

"She made me do it. You saw her. She provoked me. I had to discipline my daughter." I coughed up some more blood, getting their attention. "Wakey wakey sleepy head." Renee was crouched in front of me with a sinisterly sweet smile on her face. "Now, the car is nearly ready and we can all go back to Florida and be a happy family once more." She stroked my hair, brushing it away from my face.

"I'm not going anywhere with you, you crazy bitch! My life is here." I choked out. More punches and slaps. I was starting to feel dizzy.

Renee grabbed hold of my hair and yanked my head back. "How can you say your life is here? Seattle of all places. You could of gone anywhere in the world, yet you chose here?!" She snarled, pushing my head forward as she let go of my hair. Not having the energy to hold it up any longer, I left it slumped forward.

"Renee, don't you think this is enough?" Phil spat harshly. "She's barely alive. Look at her. You've broken her. Leave her be." Could it be he was actually on my side?

No Bella, don't get your hopes up. Just stay awake. Think of Edward.

Oh Edward. I'm sorry.

"Shut up Philip! Keep some pressure on that wound. I told you to take her gun off of her before we used the chloroform. You never listen to me." Renee walked over to Phil and slapped him. The sound echoed around the room. "It's time to finish this." Renee raised the gun and aimed it straight at me. "Goodbye, my imperfect little girl."

"PUT THE WEAPON DOWN OR I'LL SHOOT!" The door closest to me burst open and Edward ran in, gun raised.

Renee didn't hesitate. She fired the gun but the bullet didn't hit me. I watched in horror as though it all happened in slow motion.

The bullet hit Edward.

It ripped through his flesh as he was bent double with the force. He fell silently to the ground as blood started to seep through his white shirt.

"NOOOOOOOO!" I was screaming like a banshee, fighting with my restraints as they cut into my wrists and ankles.

Through my screams approaching police sirens could be heard.

"It's too late Renee. Let's get out of here." Phil was tugging on her arm, but Renee was having none of it.

"No! It. Must. End. Here." She raised the gun again and fired.

Pain radiated throughout my body as the bullet hit my right shoulder and the chair toppled over with the force. I was now on my back, still strapped to the chair just a mere three feet away from where Edward lay. A distant slamming of a door told me that Renee and Phil had left.

"Edward?" I sobbed, stretching my head back as far as I could. "Edward, please don't leave me. I need you. We need you. You're going to be a daddy. Edward? Edward, I love you. Please don't die. Edwarrrd!"

I could hear more shooting outside, but it sounded muffled and far away.

The room faded to black.

Gasp! Oh no! Will they survive? Tune in next time to find out... Which won't be for eight to nine days, I'm afraid. Going away on hols and there's no internet where I will be staying.

As always let me know what you think.

Much Love xx
