Ch. 17 Chasing

Previously on Moonlight:

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…

Bella's POV

It's been a month since Victoria went missing. No news, no nothing. It's been hard being without her. We all miss her a great deal and have managed to go day by day without her. Edward and the Cullen's have been a great help to us. They come over almost every day or invite us over and try cheering us up and giving us hope. Although we knew that there was no way she was coming back now that she was a vampire, but it was good for Anne and Vivian to feel like there was hope. I hated lying to them, but knew it was for the best. Plus there was no proof that she was a vampire yet.

"So will you be opening up The Big Bang again?" asked Emmett with a smile.

We were all the Cullen's house in the living room and rolling our eyes at Emmett because only he would be thinking about stripping at this moment.

"Emmett!" Esme chided.

"What? I had to ask!" he said unashamed.

"No it's okay, I think we do need to discuss about that." Anne said.

"Are we opening it back up?" asked Vivian curiously.

"I was going to ask you all what you guys thought about it, if that's okay with you guys?" she asked looking around at all of us waiting for an answer.

"Of course it's okay!" Esme said sweetly.

"We are here to help you girls no matter what." Carlisle assured us.

Anne nodded and looked at Vivian and me, "First things first, do you girls think we should open the club back up?"

I looked at Vivian and she looked at me too. Did I want it to open up again? It wasn't so bad working at the restaurant, but it was different from what I was used to…I did want to work at the club again, but I don't think I could right now. I feel like it would hurt to go back there without Victoria being there. Plus who would be the one in charge of the show? Anne had her restaurant…

I could feel Edward's gaze on me; waiting for my answer. I know he wanted me to say no and to never go back.

I looked back at Anne, "I… I'm not sure, I think whatever you think is best. I mean if you say yes then it's okay, but who's going to run the show? You are busy with your restaurant…and I mean it will be hard for us to go back in there without her…" I looked down at my hands by now trying very hard to hold back the tears.

Edward held me tighter against him comforting me.

"I agree with Bella too…" Vivian said quietly.

I heard Anne sigh this was a hard decision for her too.

"If I can give my opinion, I think the club isn't necessary at the moment. Maybe you can close it down for a while until we have heard something from Victoria or when you girls think you're ready." Carlisle advised us.

"Aw! And I wanted to go see Bella strip again!" Emmett whined, but knew he was joking, "Though Edward wants to see it more than I do." Emmett said wagging his eyebrow at Edward.

"Emmett! Shut up please!" Edward said. Then I felt him reach for throw pillow behind him and threw it hard and fast at Emmett.

"Ow! What was that for!?" Emmett asked in disbelief.

We all burst out laughing.

"Good one Edward!" Alice cheered.

Edward just smiled back at her.

"Okay, I think I've made my decision." Anne said.

We all looked at her expectantly.

"Well what is it?" Emmett asked excitedly.

I saw Rosalie slap his hard, "Ow! Why does everyone keep hurting me today?" he complained and we all snickered, but looked at Anne waiting for an answer.

"I think…Carlisle is right, we'll keep it close for now and will open it up later on. Maybe we won't wait long, maybe next month or the one after. I wouldn't want to close it up forever. Plus if Victoria really is…gone…then I want to keep her business alive…"

We all nodded in agreement.

"I think that's the best decision for now." I agreed and Edward kissed my forehead in agreement….

Edward's POV

"I think that's the best decision for now." Bella agreed with Anne and I kissed her forehead happy that she wasn't going to have to work at the strip club for a while now. I knew it wouldn't be forever, but I wouldn't worry about that now. I would find another way to get her out of that job when it was time.

We talked in the living room with my family for a while and then I heard Bella's stomach growl and I realized that they were hungry it was easy to forget that they ate.

"Are you girls hungry?" I asked.

"Oh my gosh! How rude of me! Are you girl's hungry? Because I can make you girls anything you want!" Esme said in alarm.

"What was I thinking? Poor girls must be starving and I'm here being a bad host by not offering them anything! What if they die of starvation because of me?" Esme thought.

I chuckled silently. Esme was just so motherly and worried too much.

I whispered to Esme very quietly that Bella wouldn't even hear me; even though she was right next to me. "Esme its okay they aren't going to die of starvation."

I saw my family chuckle and I'm sure if Esme was human she would have been blushing.

"Um sure that would be nice Esme." Bella said smiling at Esme, that beautiful smile of hers.

Esme smiled back at Bella and asked, "What would you girls like to eat?"

"Anything you have Esme is fine." Anne assured Esme.

"Esme, why don't I come and help you? We'll see what we can make." Bella offered getting up and walking towards Esme.

"That sounds great Bella!" Esme said happily and they walked off to the kitchen. She loved Bella so much and was glad that Bella felt the same. She loved spending as much time as she could with Bella because she already considered Bella as one of her daughters.

I followed them into the kitchen to help, when Emmett had the idea of playing Monopoly.

"Edward you're going to help?" Bella asked surprised.

"That's my son being a gentleman." Esme thought and turned smiling at me.

"Yes I'm here to help you girls. Plus Emmett wants to play Monopoly and I don't feel like living through that when I can be here with you." I said honestly leaning down and kissing Bella's cheek.

She blushed scarlet red and looked down at her feet. I chuckled, she had to get used to getting complements.

"Aw, what a romantic son I have!" Esme said proudly.

I smiled at her and shook my head at her in disbelief. She just winked at me in return.

"So what are we gonna make dearest Bella?" Esme asked, coming over and putting her arm around my shoulder.

"Well what do you have tomatoes, bread and cheese?" Bella asked.

"Yes we do sweetie."

"Well then we'll make grilled cheese sandwich!" Bella said excitedly.

"Doesn't sound hard to make..." Esme said smiling.

"It's very easy to make!" Bella said smiling.

Bella showed us how to make them and so both Esme and I tried it out and it was very easy like Bella had told us.

Vivian and Anne had questioned us why we didn't eat, but we had told them that we had already eaten and Bella had made a lot for us to eat later.

We played a game of Monopoly and then the girls played Just Dance against Emmett and Alice. It was very comical to watch Emmett dancing.

It was getting late so the girls decided it was time to leave. I didn't want Bella to leave, but I knew she had to leave. Plus I would be over there later tonight.

"I'll see you later ok? Be careful, I wouldn't want anything to you." I said to Bella giving her a kiss.

She pulled back with a smug smile, "Nothing will happen, it's three of us in one car we can defend ourselves..." and before I could protest she kissed me, "And yeah see you later…" she said smiling seductively at me.

I saw her walk away into the car and then they were gone.

She had just left and I already missed her.

I walked back inside then Emmett said "Let's go hunting! I'm thirsty!"

"That sounds like a good idea." Jasper agreed.

"Yeah I think that is a good idea. Are you all ready?" Carlisle asked.

"Yes." We all said in union.

"Okay then let's get going you guys!" Carlisle said excitedly.

"Can we make this a competition?" Emmett asked excitedly.

"Sure son." Carlisle said smiling at Emmett.

"Okay let's line up by the river and on the mark we go okay?" Emmett said excitedly.

"I'm so going to win!" Emmett thought.

"Yeah right Emmett!" I said rolling my eyes.

"You know I will win!" He said punching my shoulder playfully.

"I'm sorry to break it to you guys, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to win." Jasper said clapping us both on the shoulder.

Rosalie just rolled her eyes and thought "What morons! We all know I'm going to win!"

I just rolled my eyes at her and then saw Alice looking into the future to see who would win.

Esme and Carlisle were amused at our banter.

"Look at our children Esme. They think they will win, but our knowledge and experience will help us win right dear?" Carlisle said teasingly to Esme.

"Psh! As if Carlisle!" Emmett said.

"We'll see." Carlisle said amused.

We were all by the river now and in our positions.

"Okay everybody ready! On your mark…get set…GO!" Emmett boomed and we all started running.

I ran passed Emmett and he cursed and thought, "Damn it Edward!"

I laughed out loud.

I could feel Alice close behind me.

"Edward you know you're going to win right? I don't need a vision to tell me that you will." She said smiling smugly at me.

"I know!" I said smiling hugely at her.

I could hear Emmett planning throwing rocks and branches to try and slow me down I rolled my eyes only Emmett!

"Emmett you know that won't work right?" I asked loudly.

He cursed and Alice and I both cracked up.

I was almost to the spot so I tried running faster. I closed my eyes and felt the wind past me and smelled the elk close by. I opened my eyes and saw that I had arrived.

"Of course Edward won again!" Jasper thought shaking his head.

"Ugh! Whatever!" Rosalie thought.

"Edward you're such a cheater! This is not fair I demand a rematch!" Emmett yelled.

"Emmett dear, Edward won fair and square, he started at the same time we did." Esme said trying to set peace.

"Mom! You know Edward is the fastest of us! He shouldn't race!" Emmett whined.

We all rolled our eyes.

"Emmett, stop being a sore loser!" Alice said giggling.

"Oh yeah or what you going to do about it?" he threatened.

"Emmett, leave my wife alone." Jasper said punching Emmett in the arm.

"Okay that's enough boys, let's hunt." Carlisle commanded.

And with that we all went off to hunt.

I smelled the elk I had smelt earlier and went to look for it. I could hear its heart pumping that hot blood. My mouth filled with venom and I went towards it. I saw it eating grass, but heard the leaves I had rustled and his head snapped up in alert. So fast that it didn't see me I attacked it and sank my teeth into its warm neck. I sucked the blood; the warm felt so good going down my throat. Once I was done I threw the carcass off me and went to look for another elk.

All of a sudden I heard Alice gasp and we all ran towards her.

"What is it Alice?" Jasper asked going to her side and putting his hands on her shoulders.

She didn't move; she stood their caught in her vision. I could tell it was going to happen in any moment. We were all standing in the same spots we were now and then Victoria passed by running in vampire speed.

I gasped, "Victoria…"

"What do you mean Victoria?" Carlisle asked.

"Alice had a vision that Victoria passing by here at vampire speed soon." I said.

They all gasped.

"We need to talk to her." Carlisle said and I nodded in agreement.

"Carlisle that's dangerous!" Esme protested worriedly.

"It will be fine dear. It's seven of us we can handle her, plus Jasper is an expert when it comes to handling newborns."

Jasper nodded in agreement.

"Okay Alice, show us where you saw her." Carlisle said.

Alice concentrated then said, "She's on your left!"

And with that we all ran towards her at the same time. Emmett was near her. I could see her in his mind. She was wearing a long greenish jacket and blue jeans. Victoria could sense us following her "Why am I being followed? Stay away from me or I will kill you!" She thought menacingly.

Emmett was really close to her so he reached out to grab her, but she ducked down and he hit a tree.

"Mother Fudger!" He cursed.

Victoria looked back to see that Emmett was on the ground "Ha!" she thought.

"That bitch!" Rosalie thought.

We all kept running towards her. Jasper was right behind her now, I saw that she jumped against the trees and Jasper followed her movement. He tried grabbing her but fell instead. "Where are all these vampires coming from?" she thought.

We all kept running Alice and I were on her tail, but then I heard Emmett's plan. He was waiting at a spot where Victoria would pass then he would grab her. Victoria was almost to the spot where Emmett was standing. Alice and I kept running and then Alice had a vision of Victoria attacking Emmett. I looked at her wide eyed.

"Emmett no!" I yelled and I realized my mistake.

"So you tried to trap me? Ha! Nice try! You're plan just failed."

Victoria headed to where Emmett was and attacked him.

"Emmett!" I yelled.

"Emmett! I swear if that bitch hurts him I will personally kill her and I don't care that she's Bella's friend!" Rosalie thought then ran faster towards Emmett.

"I hope he's okay!" Esme thought.

"Jasper, use your power to calm her!" Carlisle commanded.

"I hope she hasn't hurt Emmett." Carlisle thought.

We all got there and she was on Emmett's back with her teeth near his neck. Emmett was trying hard to get off her off, but he was having trouble.

"You bitch! Get off Emmett!" Rosalie growled and went over to her and ripped her off his back.

Victoria was on the ground looked up at Rosalie and went to attack her, but Emmett pinned her on the ground.

"Get off me!" She growled.

Soon I could feel Jasper using his gift to calm us all down. Victoria relaxed on the ground. Once she was calmed she looked at us and gasped. "The… Cullen's...?"

"Victoria do you remember us dear? What happened to you?" Carlisle asked her calmly.

Victoria stared at Carlisle in shock.

"Emmett let her go." Carlisle commanded him.

"But-?" Rosalie started but Carlisle held his hand up to silence her.

Emmett let her go and she got into a sitting position and looked at each one of us then her eyes stayed on me. "Bella…Vivian…Anne…" She put her face in her hands and started thinking about the things they use to do. The memories were all blurry because they were human memories. It was memories of them all laughing and hugging. Some of working in the club, of a younger Bella; the look in her eyes were pained. Memories of her and Anne as kids and as teenagers together…

"I need to go see them!" Then she paused and thought, "I wonder how their blood smell and taste like… appetizing I bet!" she smiled evilly and got up and ran.

"No! Victoria you can't!" I yelled and started running towards her. I would not let her get near Bella or her sisters. I will protect them!

The rest of my family was confused since they hadn't heard what she had thought, but they still ran with me.

"Don't let he get away!" I yelled.

"What's going on Edward?" Alice asked.

All of a sudden Victoria jumped over the river over to Quileute land. We all stopped at the edge and watch her run off.

"Edward, would you explain what's going on? Why you ran like a maniac after her?" Emmett asked, folding his arms.

I took a deep breath and looked at all of them, "When she saw us it reminded her of the girls, so she decided to go see them…but after that she thought about how they would smell and taste like."

"What?" They all said.

"We need to get over to their house immediately!" Carlisle said urgently.

And with that we all started running towards their house. When we got their there was no sign of Victoria.

"Edward you go inside and talk to Bella, we'll guard the house." Carlisle said in a reassuring tone.

I nodded and climbed up Bella's window. She was lying on her bed reading a book with her lamp on. She was startled when she saw me.

"Edward!" She exclaim smiling hugely.

I smiled back and sat in front of her on the bed.

"Bella I have to tell you very important." I told her seriously.

She put her book on her side table and looked at me, "What is it?"

I grabbed her hands in mine and carefully told her, "We just encountered Victoria…"

"What?!" She shouted.

"Shh Bella! They'll hear you!"

"Sorry! But you can't just tell me you saw Victoria and expect that I won't freak out!" She exclaimed. "Tell me what happened!"

"Well we were out hunting, then Alice had a vision of her coming by, so we decided to chase her and get some answers and well she attacked Emmett cause he was about to get her…" I saw her eyes widen in alarm, "Don't worry he's fine…Anyways Rosalie knocked her down then Emmett pinned her on the floor and Jasper used his power to calm her down. Once she was calmed she looked at us and remembered is and you guys. She decided she wanted to come see you guys." I saw Bella's eyes brighten up at the thought of seeing her, but I had to tell her the truth. "…But once she thought of you guys…She thought about how you guys would…smell and taste." I said slowly.

Bella's eyes widen in fright.

"It's okay Bella I won't let her come near you guys. We all ran over here as fast as we could before it was too late. We are going to have to take a lot of precaution because she could come at any time."

"Oh my god! This is terrible! I was happy that we were going to get her back, but we aren't are we?" she asked sadly.

I shook my head. I hated seeing Bella this sad.

"Edward…We have to tell Anne and Vivian the truth! What if they encounter her? They are obviously going to go and jump her and that would be dangerous! We need to tell them about…vampires." She whispered.

I stared at her; she was right, there was no other way. We couldn't just tell them if they saw Victoria to get near her without a reason. They had to know, I know Carlisle would agree and I know they would keep the secret.

"You're right."

"We should tell them now." Bella said nervously.

"Now? Isn't it kind of late?" I asked.

"No they are both downstairs looking at pictures of Victoria. I couldn't stand looking at them so I came up…" she said looking down at her hands.

"Well I can't go down there, I came through the window."

She sat there thinking for a while then said, "Why don't you go out and get your family to knock on the door and I'll get it and we'll all talk?"

"That sounds good." I nodded.

I jumped out the window and my family was all waiting there having heard everything.

"I say this is dangerous!" Rosalie argued.

"Rosalie it's for the best." Carlisle told her.

She just huffed in anger.

We all headed to the door. I could hear Bella talking to Vivian and Anne, so I knocked.

Bella came and opened it, letting us in.

"Hey! What are you guys doing here?" Anne asked confused.

"We need to tell you guys something." Bella said.

"Oh my gosh! Are they here to ask for Bella's hand?" Anne thought in panic.

I chuckled silently at that. Not now, but definitely someday in the near future.

"Um sure…" Anne said cautiously.

"We need to tell you the truth about us." Carlisle said calmly.

"What do you mean?" Vivian asked confused.

"This is going to be hard, but it's for their own good to know." Carlisle thought.

Bella looked at Carlisle asking with her eyes if she could do it. Carlisle nodded in agreement.

She took a deep breath looked at all of us and then her gaze settle on Anne and Vivian, "Guys, as crazy as this is going to sound…the Cullen's are…vampires…"

Dun dun dun! They know! what do u think will happen? How will they react? and do u think they shouldnt have told them?
