Late that night...
he drowned in his sleep.
Air clawed out of his lungs as he fell

He was falling into a burning ocean of molten glass, pain was too much to comprehend as he sank lower, everything was so bright! it was too much, he saw images through the glass as he drowned... Charlie... Dad! He saw someone holding Charlie in a hug, but a bullet hole going straight through his chest. His Dad was... he felt the soaring rage of his suppressants wearing off and his emotions sky rocketed, he screamed out in defiance and made his way through the molten glass but someone stopped him. A cold hand... one that fit perfectly in his as he was yanked back up without even seeing who it was. He flew out of the ocean and woke up coughing roughly, his body temperature was completely unpredictably fluctuating. He manage to get up and collapsed on the floor and began to make his way slowly towards his Dads room

(Bella)

A loud thump woke her up out of her dead dreams. She quickly pulled her purple covers off and threw open the door, running to see what the commotion was.

Once she reached the end of the stairs, a terrifying sight greeted her. She saw her brother on the floor, he was bleeding rather badly on his neck... and from a rather large blood spot on his back! He was trying to crawl towards Charlie's room and Bella quickly yanked him up and he held onto her shoulder and continued to try to move towards Charlie's room, and opened her Dads door with a worried look. They both found him missing from his bed... Charlie had disappeared. Bella immediately let go of James and he caught himself on the door as Bella frantically rushed around the room, trying to find their father, only finding a open window. James looked sick and Bella quickly hauled him to the bathroom, where he proceeded to puke his guts out. Bella however immediately called the station and received no answer. Charlie wasn't out on duty... no one was. At the least there are always 2 cops at the station at all times! Bella quickly pulled out her phone and dialed up Jacob.

(James)

He felt like insides were molten lava but his skin was as cold as ice. Of course most of his insides were in the right now... everything felt wrong. He felt something forming inside him. Something beyond what he could comprehend. He tried to get Bella's attention but only ended up making himself sick again. Then he noticed the blood.

He inspected himself with a mirror he managed to yank from the sink, he had to small punctures in his neck, blood ever so softly flowed out and he opened the bottom drawer to pull out Dads emergency med kit. James over heard Bella in the living room.

"I don't know! Charlie's missing! James is bleeding out in the bathroom and the Cops are off for some unknown reason! Yeah... it was two marks on his neck. Yeah their symmetrical. Why does it matter he needs a doctor! No we didn't find and evidence of forced entry. Ok please hurry!"

James tried to mutter out something to his sister to warn her but the blow from behind took her off guard. She hit the ground unconscious and a guy with dark green dyed hair and black mask on stepped in, he grabbed James by the arm and yanked him so hard he sweared that he pulled his arm off. He tried to fight back but nothing worked. He tried to call out for help but he couldn't speak. His voice and home were shattered.

(Several Hours Later)
(James)

He woke up in a soft bed, his eyes didn't want to open and he felt extremely tired. Then he remembered Bella. He jolted up and surveyed his surroundings. A large window revealed a very dense and large Forest and he didn't hear anyone in the house. He quietly got up, trying to find something to defend himself. Everything felt off, his head felt like he had been run through with a spike...

There was a small knock on the door. His eyes darted over to it and he felt a overwhelming scent of vanilla pouring through... he loved vanilla. He still tensed up but then he saw the door open and to his shock, Edwards smaller sister Alice stepped in, she held a clean pair of clothes in her left hand and a coffee mug in the other. She cleared her throat and awkwardly looked over with a warm smile.

"Good morning! I know you must have a thousand questions and I'll explain everything, but you should drink something and get into a actually clean and... not bloody pair of pants. Bella said you took a very bad blow to your back when she found you. I'll be right outside. It's only us here right now so don't worry! When your done feel free to come out and I'll... explain everything." She said with a clear perfect voice. Alice was always the odd bunch of the Cullen's according to Bella's classmates. Tamer... she smirked as if she heard that and walked out the door. She gave him a short glance and closed the door behind her. "Feel free to take a shower if you need! You have all the time in the world now!"

Somehow. He's at Edward Cullen's family house. Currently staying in what he can only assume is Edwards own room... judging by the rare pictures that littered the room. He gladly takes Alice up on her offer of a shower... maybe a hot shower will lift this... numbness through out his body. Even his neck wound was healed... how long had he been here?
