JACOB
Chapter 1
I loped quickly, leaping over fallen trees, dodging boulders and other debris on the path. I had to see her, find out why she’d left, see if she was all right. I couldn’t believe what Billy had told me when I got home.
I’d pulled in to find Billy sitting on the porch, his expression blank. He was staring out into the forest like he was waiting for something to pop out and attack.
“What’s up Pops?” I asked teasingly, ducking under the overhang to get out of the rain. I followed his gaze narrowing my eyes curiously. “Dad?” I finally asked.
“Renesmee took off that way. I was hoping she’d come back.”
“She left?” I asked.
He didn’t answer.
I laughed, “Was she really that embarrassed?”
He looked up at me, his face solemn, worried.
“What’s wrong?”
“She’s sick Jake.”
“What?” I chuckled lightly, “Renesmee doesn’t get sick.”
“Tell that to the sink.” He ব্যক্ত looking back out at the বৃক্ষ line.
I did the same.
Renesmee was sick? And I left her all alone. Now she was out running around in the woods, in the rain no less.
“I’ll go find her.” I ব্যক্ত finally, leaping down the stairs and running as quick as I could toward the forest, stripping off my শার্ট as I went.
I phased as soon as I knew I was properly blocked from view.
Now I was running full speed toward the Cullen’s house.
Hey Jake. What’s the rush? Leah asked.
I was a little surprised she was out. She hadn’t been out running in quite some time. Not since she found Liam, her fiancé.
He’s visiting his mom in Utah, She laughed. Who knew I’d fall for a southern boy?
I ignored her, still running.
Come on Jake. What’s wrong?
I let my mind wander, passing from Nessie knocking Paul out, to my conversation with Billy.
That was great! I didn’t know she had it in her. I hope she’s okay.
She’ll be fine. I thought furiously. Her lack of emotion made me angry; her thoughts just didn’t seem sincere enough.
I do care. She replied gently.
I know. I appeased.
Keep me informed okay? She is my niece.
I sighed to myself, I will.
As I approached the house Alice burst from the rear door, shaking her head quickly and pointing toward the woods. I leaned back on my haunches and spun around, following the vampire back the way I came.
She stopped, holding out a pair of cut-off sweatpants.
I took them in my mouth and moved into the thick brush, emerging only সেকেন্ড later properly covered.
“What’s going on?” I asked quickly.
“Renesmee’s not feeling well.” She ব্যক্ত predictably.
“I heard. Can I see her?”
“She’s sleeping.”
“Is she going to be okay?”
She nodded. “She’ll be fine. Carlisle’s going to take care of her when she wakes up.”
“Oh.” I ব্যক্ত flatly, হারিয়ে গেছে for words. “So, when can I see her?”
“When she’s ready.”
“Ready?”
“She’s not at her best.”
I stared blankly at her.
“Girls don’t like to be seen when they’re . . . indisposed.”
“Oh.” I ব্যক্ত again, looking to the ground.
“Hey.” She ব্যক্ত rubbing my upper arm reassuringly. “It’ll be okay.”
I looked to her as she offered a soft smile.
“Trust me.”
I nodded. “Okay.”
“Now get going, we don’t need Edward getting suspicious.”
“What do আপনি mean?”
“Nessie doesn’t want him to know she’s sick.”
I narrowed my eyes.
“You know how he is. He’d have her locked up like a princess in a tower. আপনি don’t want that do you?”
I shook my head. The last thing I wanted was for Renesmee to feel trapped.
“Go.” She prodded. “I’ll call আপনি when we know what’s wrong.” She smiled. “I promise.”
I nodded. “Thanks, Alice.”
“Anytime.”
I headed home, slower this time. I felt better knowing Nessie was being taken care of; that she wasn’t alone. I’d see her soon enough. I could handle a couple of days . . . Right?
Leah was suddenly laughing in my head. Not a chance.

end of chapter 3!!
"Umm Bella I think আপনি should come and see this..."
-------------------------------------------------
I flew down the stairs and into the living room just behind Edward.
"What is it?" I asked quietly.
"This is what the contraption does." He hissed stepping to the side.
"I tilted my head to the side to examine the bloodied lump closer. It was Phil. I backed away gasping.
Edward extended his arm and a note was clasped in his hand.
I grabbed the note and scanned it.
'dear Bella, this is what the rigging does. আপনি have ten মিনিট to get your mothers off. I get bored easily.
P.s and be careful where আপনি pull, আপনি dont know what might pop out.'
Then there was an unearthly shreik, It grated the insides of my eardrums. My thoughts caught up with my feet at the শীর্ষ of the stairs.
I punched the door out of my way and shreiked a snarl at what i saw...
