Chapter 13
EPOV
Bella was gone. I left her so she would be safer and I ended up condemning her. I tried not to think about what she could be going through, but it was very difficult. I knew that if I could just hold her everything would be right in the world again. I was nothing without her and I would do whatever it takes to make her see that, but first we needed to find her. Carlisle and I left for the police station while the rest of the family discussed our search pattern for when we returned. I could only hope that Charlie had something to tell us.
I knew Charlie would be upset to see me. If anyone but Carlisle were with me I think Charlie would have tried to shoot me. We walked through the doors of the Forks Police Department to a flurry of activity. It looked like everyone on staff and more were concern about finding Bella. I searched the room for Charlie, hoping he would have some information on the whereabouts of his daughter. He found me first.
“YOU! What the fuck are you doing here?” He moved closer to us and Carlisle stepped forward. “Chief Swan, please calm down. We are here to help, if we can.” Charlie’s hand hovered by his belt. I think he was reaching for his gun, but it wasn’t there. He continued to stare at me. “I think you’ve helped enough. Don’t you?” I cringed. This was all my fault. Carlisle placed a hand on my shoulder. “Charlie, we don’t want any trouble, but Bella is missing and we want to help. Regardless of the past. Do you have any information about her whereabouts?” Charlie looked at me a moment more before turning his attention to Carlisle.
“We don’t know anything. She was a patient at the Seattle Mental Institution for the past 3 months. According to her new doctor, her orderly took her on a little trip to get her outside to see if that helped her at all. She attacked him and ran away. That was about 2 days ago. She hasn’t been seen since. We tracked Matt’s ATM card to the bus station, but the cashier doesn’t remember where she bought a ticket to. She cleaned out his bank account though, about $1000 so she has money. She could be anywhere. I thought she would come home, but I was wrong. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. I haven’t been a very good father these past few months.”
Charlie paused and looked down. I could tell he felt guilty. I opened my mouth to tell him it wasn’t his fault when Carlisle stopped me with a thought. Wait. I trusted Carlisle so I waited. When Charlie looked up again he looked right at me. “I don’t like you. You left my baby girl broken in more ways than one. I have no respect for you and I don’t know if you ever cared about her or if it was all some game to you. But if you did ever care about her, you will help me find her.”
I was shocked. Charlie was asking for my help. Things must be worse than I thought. “I will never forgive myself for leaving. I love her with all my heart and soul. I thought she would be better off without me. I was wrong. I’m so sorry. And I WILL get a chance to tell her that. We’ll bring her home Charlie, you have my word.”
He looked at me. “Whatever your intentions were, I don’t really care. I just want my baby girl safe at home again. Besides, if I were any kind of good father I never would have put in that place.”
“This isn’t your fault Charlie, it’s mine.”
“Damn right it’s your fault! But that’s beside the point. Follow me and I will tell you what we have so far.” Carlisle and I followed him to the other side of the room. “This is where she disappeared and this is where the bus stop is.” He pointed both locations out on the map. They were far enough apart that she couldn’t have walked. I knew that. So someone had to pick her up. I couldn’t help but wonder, were they kind to her? Did she feel safe? Charlie was still talking. “– contacted Phoenix police and they have a search party set up there. She would try to go somewhere she felt safe, so we assumed Phoenix was the next place after Forks and no one here has seen her.” I nodded. It was a logical thought. They had no way of knowing just how wrong they were, but I wasn’t going to stop them looking. Who knows, maybe they could find her.
Carlisle thanked Charlie with the promise to keep each other updated and we ran home. The family was waiting to ambush us before we walked in the door. No one spoke, but everyone’s thoughts were on the same thing. Do they know where she is? Do they know she was here? I shook my head twice. “They don’t know anything other than she was last seen at the Seattle bus stop.” This was too much. Bella was out there probably terrified, maybe even hurt. I was empty. I didn’t want to feel anything. It hurt too much. I needed to be by myself so I could break down without the prying eyes of my family. I didn’t say anything as I walked out the back door. I heard Carlisle tell someone to stay where they were. I reached the back lawn and ran for all I was worth; all the while hoping that God would strike my down so I wouldn’t have to feel this anymore.
APOV
Edward and Carlisle left for the police station. I tried to see how it would go, but there were too many decisions to be made yet. The rest of us stayed at the house and began planning our search. We knew Bella was here last and at the most not even 24 hours ago, so this would be ground zero. Jasper took the lead on this. His military experience would be useful. “We start from here and radiate out. We are looking for anything out of the ordinary. We can’t follow her scent because it disappears at the end of the drive. Look for tire tracks and get a picture if you can. Also look for signs that she struggled, but this is also doubtful. She was probably unconscious at the time. Alice, have you seen anything?”
He looked at me. I looked for Bella and all I saw was darkness. “No. It’s the same as before, total darkness.” Jazz didn’t waste any time. “Ok then. We are looking blind, but we can assume a few things. One, we know whoever took her was human, so there is probably DNA on something in the house. If we can get a viable DNA sample, we might be able to figure out who took her. Two, humans don’t drive as fast as us and she was taken at most 24 hours ago so that limits the area she could be in and they would have to stop to allow the driver to sleep, so they probably no very far.” I was so anxious to start looking I was literally bouncing up and down.
Jasper looked at me for a moment before addressing the family again. “We need to wait for Carlisle to get back before we do anything. We don’t know what they found out from Charlie and I am sure Carlisle will have something to say about all this.” So we waited. I paced the living room looking into Bella’s future for any sign that she was ok. At one point I thought I saw something, but it was only a flash of light and then it was gone. She was still alive then, at least I hoped so.
Esme excused herself to her room. I thought about how hard this all must be for her. She was destined to be a mother and now one of her daughters was in danger and she was helpless. Emmett and Jasper walked outside to blow off some steam. They would fight and I didn’t need my sight to tell me the outcome. Jasper would win. I was the only one in the family to ever beat him, but I had an unfair advantage. Even Edward couldn’t win, but he didn’t lose. They usually tied. Rose just sat on the couch and stared. I am sure she was remembering what happened to her before she was turned, what was probably happening to Bella now. I felt sick.
Thankfully we didn’t have to wait long. “They’ll be here in a minute.” Everyone was instantly back in the living room and waiting. We heard Carlisle and Edward race up the steps to the front door. When they entered the room no one spoke. I don’t know what everyone else was thinking, but I was asking Edward if they knew anything. I guess everyone was asking the same thing. He shook his head twice to the unasked questions. “They don’t know anything other than she was last seen at the Seattle bus stop.” My heart sank. I had started hoping that Charlie would know something more. I even hoped a little that Charlie figured out where she was and sent someone to get her. At least she would be safe then.
I sighed. Edward looked like he was shattering before our very eyes. Wordlessly he walked to the back door and went outside. I knew he needed time to pull himself together, but Emmett made a move to follow him. Carlisle looked at him. “Stay where you are. He needs time to process all this.” Emmett looked at Carlisle angrier than I have seen him in a long time. “He needs TIME! We don’t have time Carlisle! Bella is out there probably terrified and maybe even hurt! He needs to pull his head out of his ass and stop thinking about himself. He’s not the only one hurting right now.” Everyone stared at Emmett like he had grown a second head.
I knew that Emmett loved Bella like a sister, but his outburst was still unexpected. He sighed. “I’m sorry. I’m not angry with you or even with him really. He did what he thought was the best thing. It’s not his fault that it backfired in the worst possible way. I just want her home safe.” Carlisle smiled at Emmett. “We all want that Emmett and there is nothing to forgive. We all love Bella and want her safe and whole again.”
Carlisle didn’t waste any time in filling us with what Charlie said. They really didn’t know anything. When he was finished no one moved for a moment. Carlisle looked at me. “Go get Edward. You know him better than anyone. Help him pull himself together. He is more attuned to Bella than any of us. If we want to be successful we will need him.” I turned to leave, but Carlisle stopped. “Wait one moment Alice. There is one more thing that you should all be aware of. You know Bella was in a mental institution, but we don’t know what her current state of mind is. If we find her she may not want to see us. She may even try to hurt herself. So if you find her, use extreme caution.” My heart broke. Esme voiced what was all our greatest hope. “It doesn’t matter how she is now. Once she is back with her family everything will be fine.” I sincerely hoped she was right. I turned and raced out the back door to find my brother.
BPOV
I was dreaming. I knew because Edward was with me and he was singing.
Dear my love, haven't you wanted to be with me

And dear my love, haven't you longed to be free

I can't keep pretending that I don't even know you

And at sweet night, you are my own

Take my hand

We're leaving here tonight

There's no need to tell anyone

They'd only hold us down

So by the morning light

We'll be halfway to anywhere

Where love is more than just your name

I have dreamt of a place for you and I

No one know who we are there

All I want is to give my life only to you

I've dreamt so long I cannot dream anymore

Let's run away, I'll take you there

Forget this life

Come with me

Don't look back you're safe now

Unlock your heart

Drop your guard

No one's left to stop you

Forget this life

Come with me

Don't look back you're safe now

Unlock your heart

Drop your guard

No one's left to stop you now
I woke with a start and realized three things before I even opened my eyes. One there were tears on my face. The dream was everything I wanted, Edward to come back for me. Two, I was soaking wet and freezing. And three, my head was killing me. I opened my eyes and only darkness greeted me. I reached up to try and take it off and I found my hands were tied behind my back. I didn’t know where I was. I remember lying in bed at the Cullen’s and hearing a noise and then nothing. I rolled onto my side and groaned. I didn’t know how long I was lying there, but I was stiff as a board.
“Welcome back my Bella. You were asleep for so long I thought I may have hit you too hard.” He laughed. I froze. It was the some voice that haunted me for the last month. Matthew Park. I started crying again. I should have killed him when I had the chance. Now he was going to hurt me more than before, maybe even kill me. I should have been terrified at the thought of dying, but it gave me an odd sense of peace. If I were dead he couldn’t hurt me anymore. Maybe I could piss him off enough that he would kill me before getting a chance to rape me again. Anything was better than that.
I stopped crying. “You fucking bastard! Let me go! I’ll kill you when I get out of here!” I heard him move and then he kicked me in the gut. Hard. “Shut the fuck you bitch! You aren’t getting out of here. Ever. No one knows you’re here. They all think you ran away. You belong to me now you little slut!” He kicked me again and again. The pain was worse than anything I had felt before, but I didn’t care. He was angry and that was good. “You are a weak, pathetic, loser! You can’t get a normal girl so you are forced to rape one. I wonder why that is. Well I already know you’re small. So maybe you can get dates but when it comes time to seal the deal they just laugh and walk away, or maybe you’re just a pity fuck and they never return your calls.”
He grabbed my throat and pulled me upright. “SHUT THE FUCK UP!” He was really pissed now, only a little farther. “Oh did I touch a nerve there Mattie? I’m sorry. Well if that’s not that reason let’s think of what else it could be. Do you still live with your mother? I bet that’s it. You’re a momma’s boy. Or maybe they take one look at you and want to gouge their eyes out!” He was choking me. I couldn’t breathe and in that one moment I was beyond thankful. “You stupid little bitch. I will kill you for that, but not before I have some fun with you. Besides I have explicit instructions.”
He dropped me. I lay on the ground coughing and drawing in deep breaths. My throat burned and the tears began to fall again. He had more control than I thought. I guess God really did hate me. I couldn’t even die with whatever dignity I had left. He was going to take it all. I was so busy relearning how to breathe that I almost forgot what he said. “Instructions? Who are you working with?” I felt him kneel next to me and he started removing my pants. “Like I would tell you that. Let’s just say it’s someone who hates you even more than I do.”
I was so busy trying to think who it could be that I didn’t realize he had removed my panties until a finger slammed into me. I screamed. “Ah music to my ears. Since I can’t actually have sex for a few more days we get to explore all the things we didn’t get to try before. I will make you beg for it like the slut that you are.” He added another finger and began moving in and out of me. It hurt. Before long he added a third finger and was slamming in and out as fast as possible. He was actually scratching me inside. It was excruciating. I couldn’t help the screams that poured from my hoarse throat.
“Will you please shut her the fuck up? She’s annoying as fuck.” I stopped screaming and Matt pulled his fingers out. I had heard that voice before. “You told me I could do whatever I wanted as long as it didn’t draw blood or kill her. Were you lying?” Matt was still touching my leg while he was talking. As soon as he asked the question he was gone. I heard a growl. “Do not question me! I said you can do what you like and you can, but right now I want to meet our guest. Besides she’s been screaming for the past 10 minutes. It’s annoying.” While she was talking I tried wiggling my head to slip the blindfold off. I had to be sure. I was so close. I could see light. “I wouldn’t do that if I were you.” The blindfold as repositioned over my eyes and retied.
“Who are you?” I was fairly certain I knew the answer to that question, but I needed to be sure. “You mean you don’t remember me? I’m crushed. Maybe you’ll remember this.” She reached down and snapped my leg. I let out an ear splitting shriek. It was exactly what James had done to me. “Remember now bitch?! Your Edward killed my mate. He will pay dearly for that and you are the price.” My leg was on fire. I was panting the pain was so bad. I felt the world start to go fuzzy and the last thing I remember thinking was I wonder why Victoria is working with a human. Then the pain became too much and I let the darkness take me.
