Chapter: 3
I was lying peacefully in our bed with Edward when he shot up and bolted to Renesmee's room. Half a second later, I heard her scream. If my heart was beating, it surely would have stopped. I had never heard my daughter scream with so much fear and pain.
I flashed to her room and instantly pushed my entire shield onto her, leaving myself open to any dangers. Only then did I take the time to scan the room. To my surprise, all I saw was Renesmee and Edward sitting on her bed.
I raised my eyebrows at Edward, and asked him with my mind, 'What is it?'
He looked at me with shock, probably trying to understand why he could hear me and not Renesmee. He heard the answer in my head though, and probably the fear, for he motioned for me to come over.
"Calm down love, it was just a nightmare. Nothing is going to hurt her." He soothes in a comforting voice. I smile and instantly sit down on her bed, drawing back my shield.
She'd been having this nightmare for weeks. Her on Jacobs back, running away from a fight in which all of her family is dying. What could have happened if the Volturi did not halt.
I reached over and pulled my daughter's small, curled up frame into my lap. She grips my arms tightly, slowly starting to tear up. The small cries turn to body racking sobs. I'm sure that if I could have cried, tears would be pouring down my face.
I hated seeing my daughter in so much pain, but it was worse knowing there was nothing I could do to help her. I wanted the Volturi dead. Every single one of them. I want them to die in the most painful way for what they did to my daughter.
I rocked her back and forth until she had quieted down some. I was about to move closer to Edward when I heard heavy footsteps going faster than a human's up our driveway. I counted to three in my head, knowing what was coming next. Jacob burst through our door, panting, eyes wide in panic.
He turned towards her door and saw us sitting on the bed, holding Renesmee close. His breathing stopped and his heart skipped a beat. Edward stood up and walked towards him. "She's alright Jacob. It was just a nightmare."
Jacob breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed his tense stance. He walked towards the bed and reached his arms out, trying to grab Renesmee. When I moved away slightly, he glared at me and said angrily, "Give her to me."
I look at him. Slowly, I push Renesmee over to Edward, taking unneeded deep breathes. Uh-oh, my second snap of being a newborn, again, towards Jacob. I stalk towards Jacob who was slowly realizing what he had said and backing out the door. Edward set Renesmee's sleeping for on the bed and tried to stop me from going after him. I shook him off and stalked after Jacob, saying, "Seth won't save you now you filthy mutt."
