Bella's POV

Previously on Moonlight:

"What…what do you mean… she's gone?" I said in a shaky voice.

Charlie took over from there, "She's missing, there is no trace of where she could be or what happened for sure, but from what it looks like she was kidnapped…"

"No! No, no, no!" I yelled in denial. I let go of Anne because my body started shaking like crazy.

"Bella, take deep breathes please…" Edward said commandingly. I felt his cool arms around me.

He was saying more things but I couldn't hear anymore. Everything sounded far away.

Victoria…Why? Why would something like this happen to her? She didn't deserve this! What would I do without her? I always called her my sister, but right now I realized she was more than that. She was a mother to me. Like the mother I never had… I couldn't lose her I just couldn't…

"She's having a panic attack! Let's take her to the hospital!" I heard someone yell.

I couldn't tell who because everything sounded so far away.

"Let's go! I'll call Carlisle so he'll be ready when we get there." I heard another voice say in an urgent/ panicky tone.

It was starting to sound more distant now, which I didn't think possible.

"Bella, love, please stay with me…" Were the last words I heard, when the darkness took over…

She was gone…

Bella's POV

There was a beeping noise coming from beside me. I reached over to turn my alarm clock off, but when I reached over there was no alarm; that's weird.

I opened my eyes just a little and took in the unknown room. I gasped and opened my eyes completely. The beeping noise was becoming out of control.

"Bella, please calm down love." I heard next to me, then I felt cool hands were on my face. I looked up and saw Edward's beautiful face right in front of me.

"W-w-what happened?" I asked groggily.

He sighed and looked pain to tell me.

"Bella, you had a panic attack…"

"Why?" I asked confused.

I tried to remember what happened, but my brain wouldn't let me. It was frustrating me.

He grabbed my face and looked me straight in the eye. He said each word carefully.

"You had a panic attack because… you found out that Victoria went missing…" He stared into my eyes waiting for my reaction.

I stared back and when he said those words I started to remember how we had arrived at my house and the police were there and Charlie's words how she was kidnapped…

"Oh my god!" I started crying; tears rolling down my face. "This can't be true!" I sobbed.

Edward pulled me into his chest, letting me cry on his shirt. He rubbed my back trying to sooth me.

"I'm so sorry Bella… I know she means a lot to you." He said compassionately.

"H-how l-long have I b-been here?" I managed to ask.

"Since yesterday, they gave you drugs to put you to sleep and calmed your panic attack."

I tried controlling myself, it was hard to but Edward's cool breath was soothing and made me relax a little.

"H-has there been any news about her?" I asked.

Edward looked at me with a sad look and shook his head, "I'm sorry Bella…"

I sighed, and my breathe got stuck in my throat. I could feel tears welling up in my eyes.

"Bella, please don't cry." Edward begged.

"I...I...I just…can't help it…" I managed to say while tears were falling down my face.

I felt his cool hands on my face trying to sooth me. "Baby, please don't cry."

I tried to stop, but instead I cried harder. I cried at the pain of losing Victoria who was like a mother to me, I cried because I didn't know what was going to happen next, I cried because of how sweet and perfect Edward was and how I didn't deserve someone like him.

Edward held me, soothing me until my cries calmed down. I felt numb after I stopped crying.

"Bella, you should get some rest." Edward said in a concerned voice.

I shook my head; I wasn't ready to sleep yet. Then it hit me, "Where are Vivian and Anne?"

I had been so busy worrying about Victoria that I hadn't thought about them. They must be already worried and stressed about Victoria and here I was causing them more stress. I had to get it together for them.

"I sent them home a few hours ago to get some rest, clean up and eat. They should be here soon." he said.

He was so great and caring to both my sisters and me.

"Thank you so much for taking care of me and my sisters Edward… I don't know what I would do without you." I said squeezing his hand tightly in mine.

He smiled and leaned in to kiss my forehead, "You're welcome. You know me and my family are here for you girls right?"

"Really?" I asked in surprised because I had never gotten the care I have gotten lately from people beside my sisters.

His eyes were soft and looked sincere when he said responded, "Of course Bella, we all care about you greatly and would anything for you and your sisters."

"Thank you." I said sincerely smiling up at him.

"Anything…Anytime…" He said smiling then I saw him look towards the door.

"What?" I asked.

"Your sisters are coming… Are you ready to see them?" He asked.

I knew he was afraid of how I would react when I saw them but I had to see them, even though it was going to kill me to see Anne since she looked so much like Victoria.

"It's okay Edward…I have to see them…" I said unconvincingly.

I heard them talking outside and I held my breath when I saw the doorknob twist. Edward squeezed my hand letting me know he was here for me.

I saw Vivian enter first and looked surprised to see me awake.

"Bella!" She exclaimed and she ran over to me and hugged me with tears in her eyes.

Edward let go of my hand so I would be able to hug her back. We squeezed the living out of each other. She pulled back and looked me over.

"Oh Bella! How do you feel? Are you okay? You scared the crap out of us woman!" She said in a concerned voice.

I ignored her and looked at Anne who was standing at the foot of the bed. She looked terrible; she had huge bags under her eyes and her eyes were puffy from crying. I motioned for her to come over and she did.

"Oh Anne!" I cried and pulled her into a hug.

We hugged for what seemed like forever. We didn't say anything, just cried.

I knew Anne was suffering more than Vivian and me, she was her blood related sister and they have been together since they were born.

"H-how are you feeling B-Bella?" Anne managed to ask in between sobs.

"Anne, don't worry about me. Right now, we need to worry and focus on finding Victoria." I said wiping my tears away.

I looked over to see that Edward had gone to sit on the couch. He gave me a disapproving look. I knew he was trying to tell me that my request was ridiculous.

"Nonsense Bella!" Anne chided in a hoarse voice. I guess she agree with Edward.

"But…" I started to say but she interrupted me.

"No but's Bella." She said firmly.

"Yeah Bella, we are all family." Vivian said and with that we went in for a group hug, still crying.

We heard someone clear their throat. At first I thought it was Edward, but when we looked towards the door Carlisle was standing at the end of my bed with an apologetic smile. When did he come in? We were either too busy crying to notice him or his vampire abilities made him noiseless.

"I'm sorry ladies. I came to check and see how Bella was doing. Also to see if she's ready to go home." He said with a smile.

"No apologizing is necessary Dr. Cullen." Anne said.

"I told you girls to call me Carlisle." Carlisle said smiling a little. He walked over to me and checked my vitals.

"Well Bella, everything looks fine. You can go home now, just take it easy and you will need a lot of rest. We are going to give you some medication in case you get another panic attack, so take them only when necessary." He said while handing me the prescription.

After they released me we went home; I went in the car with Edward. When we arrived at the house Edward unnecessarily carried me into the house.

"Edward, I can walk you know! Carlisle never said I wasn't able to." I protested while he was carrying me.

He just grinned at me and said, "I know, but I won't risk anything."

I sighed and crossed my arms around my chest like a little girl would. The moment we went inside my breathing hitched. I expected to see Victoria come in the room and ask me how my day was.

"Are you okay?" Edward whispered to me.

I nodded, not being able to say anything else.

Anne and Vivian stood in the living room with the same expression I probably had.

"I'm going to take Bella upstairs so she can get rest." Edward told them before heading upstairs.

"Edward…I don't need to rest…I've been sleeping since last night." I complained.

"Bella you heard Carlisle, he said you needed rest." He said calmly.

I sighed knowing that I wasn't going to win this argument.

We got to my bedroom and he set me on my bed. He tried putting the covers on me but I stopped him.

"Let me change into my pajamas first." I said getting out of the bed and grabbing my pajamas, which were on the edge of my bed.

I made my way into the bathroom and changed. I brushed my teeth then put my hair up in a bun, then I went back to my room and saw Edward standing by my window and looking out into the night. He looked like he was in deep thought.

I made my way into my bed and curled up and looked over at Edward. I wonder if he even noticed that I had came back into the room… Like if he could read my mind he looked over at me and gave me a sad smile. I patted the spot next to me as an invitation for him to come over. He did as I told him and took a seat next to me.

"What's wrong?" I asked worriedly.

"I was just thinking…" He said not looking at me.

"Thinking about what?"

He hesitated and seemed like he didn't want to tell me.

"Tell me Edward, I need to know." I demanded.

"I was just thinking that… maybe I should go and follow Victoria's scent…" He said slowly and watched my reaction.

"W-why?" I stuttered.

"Because maybe I can find her…" He said carefully.

My eyes widen, "You can do that?"

"Yes." He simply said.

"When are you going?" I asked.

"Tonight…"

"…By yourself?"

"Yes…"

"You should take Emmett with you…" I said quietly.

"That won't be necessary."

"But I would feel better if someone went with you…" I confessed while looking at my hands. I don't know what I would do if something happened to him. I know he was just going to follow her scent, but I didn't like the idea of him going by himself.

He grabbed my face and made me look at him. His eyes were soft and held something else that I wasn't too sure what it was.

"Bella, nothing will happen to me. Remember I'm indestructible." He said with a wink.

I was about to protest but he kissed me, silencing me before I could say anything.

"Please, don't worry so much Bella. Nothing will happen to me. Now please go to sleep you need your rest sweetheart." He murmured while pulling me us both on the bed with me lying on his chest. He started humming something that sounded like a lullaby.

My eyes soon were drooping and I was soon put into a deep slumber…

I woke the next morning feeling better, but I was still devastated and hurt still from losing Victoria.

"Bella? Are you awake?" I heard Vivian ask from outside my room.

"Yeah…" I said sleepily.

"Can I come in?" she asked.

"Yeah…"

She came in and sat at the end of my bed, "How are you feeling?"

"Fine I guess, you?" I asked looking at her with concern.

"Eh, same… This is all so crazy! I keep thinking that this is a nightmare and I'm going to wake up at any second and Victoria will come in and hug me and tell me that everything is okay..." She said sounding defeated.

"I know… I feel the same way. I miss her so much it's crazy." I said looking at my hands and trying to hold back my tears.

"I miss her like crazy too… I hope we'll find her soon, we can't lose hope yet."

She was right we couldn't lose hope. We had to have faith that we would find her.

"I think you're right."

"Psh! Of course I am! When am I not?" She said trying to lighten the mood.

I chuckled just a little, "I guess you're right."

She smiled at me a little.

"So where's Anne?" I asked.

"She went to the restaurant." She said looking upset.

"What? Why?" I demanded.

"She said she couldn't just close the restaurant. We are going to be tight on money since we won't be opening the club anytime soon…"

"We won't be opening? So what will we be doing? Working in the restaurant?" I guess it was okay because I wouldn't be able to enter the club without falling into pieces.

"I guess…we are going to have to talk to Anne about this."

"I worry that she isn't here and she's over there by herself. I wouldn't want to lose her too…"

"I know what you mean. That's what I've been freaking about ever since she left that's why I came here to wake you up, I can't be down there by myself. So how about some breakfast? You need to eat." She said getting up the bed and offering me her hand.

I took her hand and we both headed downstairs to the kitchen. I grabbed some cereal and milk and sat down on the kitchen table. I kept looking around remembering the spots that Victoria would usually stand at.

Vivian and I were making small talk when we heard knocking. We both looked at each other with wide eyes. Could it be news? We both got up and headed towards the door. I took a deep breath and opened it.

I let a sigh of relief when I saw Edward and Alice standing on the other side of the door.

"Hey guys." I greeted.

Alice rushed over and pulled me into a hug. "I'm so sorry Bella for what happened to Victoria. Just know that we are here for you girls." She said looking at Vivian who was standing right behind me.

She rushed over and hugged Vivian too. Vivian just stood there frozen in shock. If I wasn't so sad, I would have laughed at her expression.

I turned back to Edward and he pulled me into a hug. "How are you this morning? I'm sorry for not calling you and telling you we were coming over, but Alice insisted that it was okay."

"It's okay… I missed you so much." I said hugging him tighter. I needed to feel his strong arms around me.

"I have to talk to you in private." He said.

"Um yeah sure…" I said confused.

"Alice and Vivian can get to know each other in the meanwhile." He chuckled slightly when he said that.

He grabbed my hand and led us up to my bedroom. He closed the door behind us and we sat on the bed. He had the most serious look on his face. He was starting to scare me with all his seriousness.

"Edward what's wrong?" I asked in a shaky voice.

He grabbed both my hands in his and was rubbing circles on both of my hands with his thumb.

"You have to listen carefully and be calm please." He pleaded.

"So does that mean you found clue's last night?" I said hopefully, but I was also scared that it was going to be bad news.
He nodded, "Yes…"

I took a deep breath, "Okay tell me, I think I'm ready."

He sighed and looked me straight in the eyes searching for something. He stared into my eyes for what seemed liked forever.

"Last night after you fell asleep I stayed here until I was there weren't going to be a lot of people up. The girls had fallen asleep already so I climbed out the window and into my car and followed her scent. I followed her scent through the mall and then her scent led me to the grocery store, but…" He paused and stared at me and slowly said the next thing, "it seems when she was coming home…she pulled over to the side of the road or something because her scent was strong there it was like she lingered at the side of the road." he paused again and looked pain in telling me all this.

"Okay so her scent was strong there did you look around to see if…if her…body was there?" I winced when I said it.

"I did, but there was nothing there, but beside her scent there was another scent mixed with hers…" he paused and looked like he didn't want to tell me the next thing, "the scent I could recognize that it wasn't…human…it was a vampire…" he stared at me gauging my reaction.

I sat there in shock. My eyes had probably widened at this new information. "S-s-so a v-vampire took her?" I stammered.

He nodded, "I didn't recognize the scent, so I don't know who it is."

"But what about Victoria?" I demanded.

He pulled me to him and hugged me tightly. This could not be good.

"Well I didn't find her but… there was a little bit of blood on the side of the road, so I think this vampire…killed her. I'm so sorry Bella, so, so sorry. I wish I can make this all better." He said as I started to cry.

It was official now, she was dead. Victoria was dead.

I couldn't stop I hugged Edward tighter and he did the same with me.

My cries slowed down just a little. "We...we have to tell Vivian and Anne. I can't let them hope that she'll come back when she isn't Edward!"

"Bella we can't… What are you going to tell them? 'Oh Edward, followed Victoria's scent and found out she was killed by a vampire because he is a vampire himself?' I don't think so Bella. You can't"

I sobbed, "But what I'm I going to do Edward? I can't just be quiet when I know the truth!"

"Well I can leave tracks for the police to find and they will come and tell you girls." He offered.

I shook my head, "I don't know… isn't that risky?"

He chuckled slightly, "Bella I'm a vampire remember? I can do things without leaving traces behind."

"I know, but still…"

"It's okay sweetheart. I'm happy to be able to do something for you girls." He said kissing my forehead.

"Thank you so much for everything." I said curling into his chest.

It was going to be hard to keep this a secret but Edward promise he would lay out the clues out by tomorrow, so the police will come soon after that to tell us.

We soon went downstairs to join Alice and Vivian. We talked for a while and when Vivian said she had to go to the restroom Alice said, "I don't think Victoria is dead."

"What?!" Edward and I gasped in surprised.

"I think this vampire changed her…" She said looking like she wasn't here. She was probably having a vision.

"Are you positive Alice?" Edward asked.

"Yes…" She simply said.

"Well that's a good thing then! She's not dead!" I said happily.

Edward and Alice both looked at each other and then back at me.

"What?" I asked.

"Bella…if Victoria is one of us then she is a newborn. They are out of control and only have one thing in mind…blood." Alice said.

"Well she can kill animals like you guys."

They shook their heads. "She will only want human blood Bella." Edward said quietly.

I froze. Victoria may not be dead, but she is still out of our lives forever. We would never get her back.

"Bella? Bella? Are you okay?" Edward asked in a panicky voice.

"I think she's going into shock again!" Alice said.

"Bella, please baby, come back." Edward pleaded.

I tried to and managed to come back, "I'm here…" I whispered.

They both sighed in relief when I heard Vivian walking back into the room. I tried to have a normal look on my face, but I guess I wasn't that convincing.

"Bella, what's wrong?" Vivian asked looking at Edward and Alice suspiciously.

"Nothing, just thinking…" I tried to say convincingly.

"Are you sure?" she asked unconvinced.

"Yeah, positive…" I lied.

I have no idea how I was going to be able to not tell Vivian and Anne the truth now. This was all too much to take in. Victoria wasn't dead, but she was out there somewhere as a blood craving, newborn vampire. What were we going to expect next? Her coming over and trying to kill us? Because that would be just what we needed to deal with right when we had just lost her…

So i hoped u liked this chapter! Thanks for reading and hoped i didn't disappoint and i hope nobody hates me! Please Review! i would appreacite it! :)
