***Important update at bottom of chapter!!!***
bella_Edward_Cullen for getting up on me to update, I wouldn't have if you hadn't have done that so thank you!

~Recap~Esme's POV~

"Now, let's go see how Emmett is doing."

"Emmett?"

"Yes, I found him mutilated by a bear and was about to be finished off. I brought him back and changed him. We all need to move though. I'm not risking anything by leaving you all here. Sebastian!" Bella yelled.

"Yes my lady?"

"Bring up another criminal." He left without another word. We followed her to another room where a young man was lying on the bed. I could hear his heart speed up and stop. Sebastian then came in with the criminal and handed him to Bella. He motioned him out and he shut the door on his way. Emmett sprang from the bed and growled in the corner at us. Bella threw the criminal in between us and he started intently at the criminal. He stalked towards him and shot out and broke his neck. He started drinking the criminal's blood and held onto him tightly. I could smell the blood was gone so he threw the, now dead, criminal away. Bella grabbed the dead body and went to find Sebastian.

-Chapter 9- Esme's POV

Emmett was still growling at us so we kept to our side of the room until Bella came back. Bella growled Emmett's way and he stopped.
"We have to leave. We still have Edward and Rosalie to find." I felt arms circle my waist and smiled when I smelt sunshine and honey.
"Carlisle, take Esme and Emmett with you to Seattle. You'll find Edward and Rosalie there. I'll take Alice with me to Texas so that we can get Jasper back-"
"He's not in Texas. He's in Philadelphia, he's at a diner." Alice cut into Isabella's words and she just stared at her.
"Okay, we'll be going to Philadelphia then. Alice and I'll meet up with you guys in Seattle. Carlisle, a word please." Isabella motioned for Carlisle to follow her into a different room to talk while I stood there awkwardly with Alice and Emmett. Alice was still standing with her eyes glazed over. Emmett was rather calm with his hands clasped in his lap, sitting on the bed.

Where is it?! Where's the amulet! If I can't find the amulet you're dead!

I gasped out from those words. An amulet? I then felt something colder than me in my abdomen.

--FLASHBACK--

"Carlisle, she can't get a hold of this amulet. She'll bring him back and he'll wreck havoc on everyone and everything! What do we do?!"

"I have an idea but you'll have to trust me. Do you trust me?"

"Yes, of course." I kissed him fiercely and he returned it.

"Come on. We need to get this done and give back Tiffany before anything bad happens. Just trust me, okay?" I nodded my head at him and he told me to lay down on the examination table. He didn't have any tools or anything except the amulet in his left hand.
"I'm sorry." He then plunged his hand into my abdomen, tearing the skin open through to my non-working organs. I tried holding in a scream but one escaped.
"What the hell, Carlisle?!" I heard Edward say from the door. He came over and held onto Carlisle's forearm.
"Do you want that abomination that Isabella likes to play with wreck havoc on all of us? Hold down her arms, Emmett, you hold down her legs." I didn't realize Emmett came into the room. I felt hands on my forearms and hands on my legs.
"It's gonna get worse. Okay Esme? I'm so sorry." He then proceeded to open my liver and nestled the amulet where it wouldn't move and I wouldn't feel it. He pulled his arm out and ushered the boys out of the room.
"I'll need to close the wound with venom." I kept my eyes to the ceiling and whimpered when I felt his tongue on my liver. I could feel it close and he proceeded to do the same all the way to the outer skin. I let out a breathe that was being held and he helped me off the table. I couldn't feel the amulet so it worked.
"I love you." Carlisle told me.
"I love you too." I leaned in to kiss him but someone cleared their throat.
"Sorry for interrupting but we need to go."

--End of Flashback--

"Esme? Are you okay?" Carlisle asked me. I snapped out of my trance when I felt hands on my arms. I just nodded my head yes.
"Something that you might need. If it breaks down on your way leave it." Bella showed us to a red automobile that was around the back of the house.
"What about you and Alice?" I asked her as Alice came to a stop beside Bella.
"Well be running. It's faster and, frankly, we don't have any use for this. Drive safe, we'll see you in a few days." Then they were gone. Carlisle got behind the wheel, me in the passenger seat, and Emmett sitting in the back.

"Welcome to Washington State." Ever since we got to Michigan State we were running. The car ran out of gas and then it broke down. I'm just really glad that we made it.
"Where are we going now?" I asked Carlisle as we soon smelled the scent of wet dog.
"Let's hunt, then we'll carry on. Emmett stay with us right now. I have a bad feeling about where we are." I glanced at Carlisle and saw that his jaw was set tight and his eyes were black.

I am soooooo sorry for not updating! I was at a major writer's block and then school distracted me. I'm trying to catch up on my stories so please bare with me for the time being. It's gonna be a couple days until anymore updates get out cause I need to wait until I get my paycheck to pay for my phone. I do promise an update though. It might be a weekly update on a random story that I chose to do. The next one will definitely be this story though. I hope you all have a lovely night/day!
