____________________________________________________________________

Could a vampire have a panic attack? Because I think I might be having one. How could she have ran away when I was just gone for only ten seconds?!

I looked around the house trying to see if she was in any of the other rooms, but Bella was nowhere to be found. Fear gripped through me. How have I put her in so much danger?! I felt that being with me have put her in this situation and I didn't know what I was going to do.

Alice went to get the rest of the family and they were frantic.

"She couldn't have gone far. She's just a human for crying out loud!" Rosalie said in frustration. She was internally annoyed that we had to go through all this trouble just for her.

Alice was scanning for her future, but just like earlier today, Alice could no longer see Bella.

"Damn it Bella! What are trying to do?" Alice exclaimed in annoyance, but I could hear the worry and fear in her thoughts and guilt that her visions were not helping us right now.

"It was clever of her to use your blind spot so we won't be able to track her down" Jasper commented and I could feel a hint of admiration in his voice. It was not helping me at all.

I paced back and forth in the living room while the others stood motionless around me.

"Will you stay still!" Rosalie complained, and I growled at her.

"Edward" Esme warned, and I gave out a sigh.

"I don't know where to find her!"

"I know you're worried Edward but you're not helping here. We want to find her as much as you do. She's family you know" Emmett said and there a was determination in his voice and the fact that in his mind, he wanted an opportunity to fight another vampire.

Alice was still trying to find Bella in her vision with no such luck. Jasper was right, if Bella decided to go home, Alice won't be able to see her, and she can go wherever she wants without us being able to find her.

"Where do you think she'll go?" Esme asked worriedly.

"If she's smart, she's going to run far away from the tracker as much as possible" Rosalie pointed out.

Jasper wore a calculated look and I let out a strangled sound at where his thoughts were leading. Carlisle saw the exchange.

"What is it Jasper?" Carlisle asked him.

"There's only two possibilities here" Everyone was paying attention to him.

"Either Rosalie is right, and Bella's running away from danger, which she'll probably have to do for the rest of her life or.... She's going to face this head on and confront James" I cringed.

"What!" The family gasped, and I couldn't even dare to think of the possibility.

"After knowing Bella for just a short while, we all know she's not going to back down. She wants to make sure we're far away as possible so we won't get involved and then she's going to confront him"

She's suicidal.

She won't stand a chance!

We have to do something!

"Alice is there anything that you can find that can help us?" I pleaded. I couldn't lose her, not like this.

"I'm trying to track James instead, but he's waiting for us to make our move." That gave me hope.
