A/N Surprise, here's the next chapter. Thanks to my special friend OoJasper'sAngeloO for her beta work and to my pre-reader jascat. Without them this story wouldn't exist. Hope you enjoy but please do not kill me for the ending. If you do I can't write any more.

I do not own Twilight or any of the characters.

Bella's POV

I had been sitting and talking with my dad as well as Alice, Rose, Em and Esme. Carlisle had gone to speak with some doctors at the hospital. We lived too far away for him to work, but he did do consults when they needed his input. The problem was that I had a hard time with Jasper going with Lillian to hunt. Everyone here knew this and they went out of their way to keep me distracted as well as Edward.

He hated that his mate had to go with Jasper as well, but we also knew that the guys would split up and the girls would hunt in a separate area. The only reason for those four to go together was the simple fact that they all were human drinkers. Lillian was still too young to be trusted alone.

She had lost control a few times and once they couldn't get to her in enough time to stop her. They had a huge mess to clean up. Since then at least Char always goes with her, she can stop her if necessary. Since the lust can be the strongest during and right after a hunt it was best that the girls separated from the guys. Although both Char and I trusted our mates, Lillian was a whole different ballgame. When in instinct mode, while its not easy to actually attack for sex especially when its not our mates, it can happen.

The problem I was having was that Peter had come to me and Jasper and told us that he felt trouble heading our way. He couldn't tell us when, where, who or how. He just knew "it was a comin'." Alice on the other hand said that it wouldn't be here. That it was closer to a town. That's what worried me right now. My mate and Peter and Char were all in a town right now.

Alice also said that she saw that all of us were involved, but she too didn't know when or who. We already figured that it would be Maria. I had some vengeance to reek out on that bitch for what she did to Jasper. Still, I wouldn't feel any peace until Jasper was back.

Dad, while he wasn't too happy about all of the shit that happened, wasn't completely adverse to what he had become. He was more like me in the control area and seemed to find being a vampire easier than Lillian has. I wasn't sure who I felt sorrier for, Lillian for being thrust into the world of vampires all because of some fucking assholes that got off on rape and torture of girls, or Edward for having Lillian as a mate. She gave all of us hell at least more than once.

What she hated the most was the fact that she had lost her virginity because she had basically attacked her mate. She was having a hard time dealing with her emotions especially when her instincts kicked in. Her emotions and instincts went against most of what she believed in as a human. Becoming a vampire destroyed most of her dreams, yet she was happy with her mate and being alive. Jasper has had to use his gift on her more often than dad and I put together.

At least I hadn't lost my dad. Am I sorry for what happened to him? Yes of course I am, but am I sorry that he's still with me? Hell no! I loved the fact that the two most important people in my life will always be with me. I won't have to watch him grow old and die. I will admit that watching him with Alice isn't pleasant, but at least he's safe and with us.

On the topic of Maria, none of us were worried about her showing up any more. With my gift along with dad's and Jasper's not even the Volturi could defeat us. Of course we have no intentions of fighting them just that Carlisle said that if we were ever to go against them he doubted that they would win. Our gifts could defeat any that they have.

Carlisle had come back and I needed to try to calm my ass down. I had learned that if I could be alone for a few minutes that I had an easier time of getting myself under control. Edward always made things harder for me because of his own mate being away from him. I asked Carlisle to please help calm Edward down before I ripped him apart. Yeah I was getting that bad.

As soon as I got to our room I went to the bay window that overlooked the valley below the house and sat down. I decided to focus on Jasper. We could feel each other, but the further away we were the more it took to touch the other's emotions. We didn't really understand it, but all mated pairs could feel each other to a point.

I had to smile because I heard Carlisle tell Em to stay by the door in case I lost it and became a "normal" newborn. I smiled because if I really wanted to let go not even Emmett could stop me. I just really wanted to be alone because I missed my mate and it was really starting to hurt badly.

The later it got the worse the pain became. I tried to focus on memories of the time Jasper and I had made love and it worked for awhile, but it soon became harder and harder to focus as the pain continued to grow. According to the time that he had been gone he should be back soon. This pain always hits me when we were separated like this. That's why when he took Lillian hunting they tried to never be gone more than five hours. It took them one hour running to get there.

Suddenly the pain grew in intensity and at the same time I felt the burning in my body. This pain had been described to me by Jasper as what it felt like to be ripped apart. He said it burns as badly as the change, but its even worse when the body is put back together. This was what Jasper was feeling!

I flew down the stairs knocking Em on his ass when he tried to grab me. I guess he thought I had lost control and was on a newborn rampage. I didn't even stop or slow down, I just ran out the front door and took off in the direction that I knew they had gone. I did yell that Jasper and possibly the others were in trouble.

My dad was almost as fast as I am and was beside me shortly after I left the house. He asked what was going on and I explained to him what I had been feeling. He had eventually made peace with Jasper mostly because he saw with his own eyes how much Jasper loved and took care of me.

We had only run a few miles when we heard the screaming and running footsteps. They were headed in our direction. We stopped to wait in a fighting stance and everyone came up to stand with us in case it was an unfriendly. Especially when the screaming was suddenly cut off.

The whole family was here except for the four out hunting and they were our best fighters with the exception of Lillian. My dad stood in front along with Carlisle who was the diplomat of the family. Since my dad could repel gifts and we had no clue who was headed our way he was the obvious choice to be in front. I was also in front along with dad. No one would get past us. They had better hope that my mate was safe and in one piece or else someone was going to get ripped apart by me.

The footsteps had stopped for a couple of minutes and then started running again towards us. It took another five minutes for the owners of the sounds came crashing through the trees. No one of us moved until we knew who it was. As soon as I saw them I felt a mixture of relief and fear. Which soon turned into horror and rage.

It was Lillian and Char but Lillian was carrying Char and Char wasn't very coherent and she was carrying two pieces of cloth, shirts it looked like. She was mumbling and crying. As soon as she saw me she jumped out of Lillian's arms and ran straight towards me. She started screaming that the bitch had them. My heart went up to my throat and the pain increased.

Char couldn't seem to get a hold of herself and kept trying to run back the way they had come. Emmett had his hands full trying to keep her here and keep her teeth away from his arms. She was hysterical and I really wished that Jasper was here to help calm her down. Then again if he was here then she wouldn't be upset.

Lillian explained that they had come from the opposite side of town than the guys would come and when they got to the place where they were to meet up and head back they hadn't gotten there. That wasn't really enough to set off alarm bells until it was way past the time they had set to be back. Apparently Char had been feeling the same kind of pain and was driving Lillian crazy. After the guys were an hour overdue they decided to head in the direction that they knew they would be coming from.

Char finally got control enough to take up the story from there, "Bella, I'm so fuckin' sorry. We got to an area that we could see there had been a fight and it was littered with vampire parts. I would say that at least ten to fifteen vampires had been ripped apart with some parts burned. I could smell Peter and Jasper. I also saw pieces of the shirts the guys were wearin'. I grabbed them, here is Jasper's. There's no sign of anyone and I can tell you right now it was fuckin' Maria. I could smell her. She has Jasper and Peter. She'll fuckin' torture them and then maybe kill them after they have suffered a very long time."

I took the piece of Jasper's shirt that Char had handed to me. It was covered in venom, his own. That meant that the bitch had fucking ripped him apart. He had told me that's how she brought vampires back that had messed with her. That way she didn't have to worry about them escaping. The torture would continue once she was back at her camp site.

The pain became unbearable and I felt myself falling. I was caught by strong arms, they belonged to my dad. He pulled me close and hugged me while whispering, "Don't worry Bells. We'll go and get him back. There's no fucking way she's gonna get away with taking your mate. I promise that I will hunt the bitch down and she will suffer for hurting him and therefore hurting you. She doesn't know it yet, but she's a dead bitch walking. She will regret the day she ever touched him. If it costs me my life I will get him back for you."

Once again I felt like a little girl and my daddy was telling me that he would make everything better for me. I just cried tearless sobs while he held me. Char came over and wrapped her arms around me and dad moved his arms so that he was holding both of us. We clung to each other and cried for our mates.

It was several hours later and plans had been made although it would end up taking us at least a week to get to where Char said they probably went. We were all going to go and get Peter and Jasper back, even Carlisle and Esme who were normally calm and peaceful, were angry and ready to fight for their family. Even though technically neither Jasper or Peter were part of their family they still felt like they were. They would kill if that's what it took to get them back. One thing was for sure, my dad was right, Maria was dead she just didn't know it yet.

Peter's POV

I don't know how long I have been here. I have no clue if Jasper is still alive or not. Maria had her soldiers overwhelm us and they managed to rip our arms and legs off, but not before a fuckin' bunch of them were ripped apart themselves. We were even able to burn a few.

The pain is the same as I remembered it was, but the worst pain was bein' away from Char. We hadn't been separated since we ran away from Maria. Oh we've had our little separations like goin' shoppin' and shit, but never more than a few hours. I can't even imagine how she's handlin' this shit. She's always been very afraid of Maria and knowin' that she has me will make it even worse and yet she can't just sit by and do nothin'. I know her.

After they had us incapacitated they took off with us and ran us to a fuckin' bus. We were thrown in the back and the ones left boarded. Maria of course made sure that she was right next to us. What she did then made both myself and Jasper fuckin' sick.

Neither of us could move except to move our whole torsos and the bitch wants her soldiers to watch how she could make a man like the Major still want her. Neither of us were wearin' shirts now and most of our pants were missin' as well. She stripped the Major down first and then proceeded to try to get him hard.

Unfortunately no man can not react to stimulation so she did get him hard, but then almost as soon as it was up, it went back down. After a few minutes that wasn't even workin' so she tried her tactics on me. She ended up with the same thing although Jasper was sendin' me something that I have no fuckin' clue what it was, but it was makin' me feel sick.

Once at the camp she separated us. She was really pissed off that she couldn't get either one of us to fuck her and neither one of us would talk to her. I was thrown up against a buildin', but I have no idea where they took Jasper to. I'm guessin' that he went right into the bitch's bed. So I've been here for at least a couple of days, I think. Maria has come to me and made some of her soldiers drink blood right in front of me.

After that they had some extra curricular activities with beatin' and bitin' me. I think at one point every fuckin' bone I had left was broken. Oh it healed, but not quickly and that shit just fuckin' hurts. They wait just long enough that I am almost completely healed and then they come back for more. Maria said that it was punishment for runnin' away from her and for takin' her Major away.

What she doesn't seem to realize is that those that we left behind ain't gonna be happy with her shit and I know that there's at least a few that will come after us. I know that Charlie, Bella, Char, Emmett and Rose will come. I'm not sure about Carlisle, Esme, Lillian or Edward, but even if its just Char, Bella and her dad that will be enough to at least get us the fuck out of here.

As each day passes I have gotten weaker from the loss of venom and thirst. I'm not sure how much longer I can hang on and my knower is tellin' me that Jasper might be in worse shape than I am. Maria might be pissed at me, but its even worse for the Major.

The assholes are back again and its started all over again. I just need to fuckin' hold on until Char gets here. Char… How I love that woman. That's the last thought I had as they went further this time and ripped my head off. . .
