Hello Beautiful

Summary: (Set during New Moon) Laurent lingered at my neck and before the black heaps that I saw behind him could move, he had carefully bit down on my neck, leaving the venom inside my body. I closed my eyes and fell into hell.

Chapter 1
"'Cause I am barely breathing and I can't find the air. I don't know who I'm kidding, imaging that you care. And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day. But I don't suppose it's worth the price, worth the price. The price that I would pay." – Barely Breathing by Duncan Sheik

Bella's POV
Wednesday – 10:00am

Laurent smiled as he emerged from the woods. I bit my lip terribly and prayed to god that something good would happen. Anything, I hoped that Edward would fall from the sky and save me. But I knew that that was impossible and that I shouldn't wish for something that wasn't going to happen. I sat in the middle of the meadow, shaking from head to toe. Don't move. The voice pleaded in my mind and I nodded, Edward, the name made me lurch and cry inside of me. Laurent smirked at my reaction and inched closer. "Oh Bella, I didn't notice you there." He said lightly and I shook my head.

"No," I croaked. I was sure that he had seen me and he was just putting up a façade. 'Don't move.' The beautiful voice repeated to me and I nodded. 'He will leave.' Edward reassured me.I nodded again as Laurent advanced towards me.

"I didn't expect you to be so easy to find. Victoria said it was impossible since you had that coven surrounding and protecting you. Then I heard from Tanya, that the family had moved. How odd." Laurent explained to me. "I never thought that they would leave you feeble and with no other options but to put yourself out there for me to find you. How silly."

He reached forward and brushed a hand against my cheek. "Stop!" I jerked away from him. 'Bella…run!' The velvet voice coaxed me. But there was no time to run anymore. Where was I supposed to run too? Laurent's lips dove for my neck and I jerked away from him again. He kissed my bare neck, something that I didn't expect from him.

"You should consider this a favor Bella," Laurent spoke once more. "Seeing as what Victoria was going to do to you once she found you."

I flinched as Laurent bent down to my neck once more. 'Bella!' The voice was screaming in my head, but there was nothing I could do. 'Beg Bella, it's the only thing that you can do.' I shivered as I remembered that Edward was the only reason I was living. Now that he was gone, maybe I shouldn't live anymore. 'Don't think like that Bella, beg!' The voice reminded me and I gave into it. "Please, don't do this." I mumbled, but Laurent hovered at my neck still. "I'm not worth."

"I'm doing you a favor," Laurent muttered against my skin. "Victoria really wanted you completely dead. But now, I'm thinking of keeping you alive."

I frowned, "oh really now?" 'That's right Bella, just keep distracting him.' Edward coaxed.

"Yes, you could be a powerful vampire Bella. More powerful then anybody. I wouldn't want to just let that go to waste." Laurent told me and I shuddered. "Although you do seem a bit clueless and clumsy."

I bit down on my lip and looked behind Laurent. There was something or something's moving behind him, but I couldn't make out what it was. It was dark and glaring as it slightly approached. Laurent lingered at my neck and before the black heaps that I saw behind him could move, he had carefully bit down on my neck, leaving the venom inside my body. I closed my eyes and fell into hell.

Jacob's POV
Wednesday – 9:45am

Sam was pacing back and forth as I was seated in front of him with Jared and Paul by my side. Emily was in the kitchen making something for everybody to eat while Embry was patrolling around town. "I don't see why you're so worked up." I told Sam and he rolled his eyes at me.

"Just something seems wrong," Sam answered as Emily entered the room.

She smiled at us, her scarred face still beautiful. "Embry's returned. I just saw him outside the window. He seemed as worked up as you did Sam." Sam kissed her ruined lips quickly before walking to the door as Embry entered it. I looked at him and noticed that he was frowning deeply.

"What is it?" Sam questioned fiercely.

Embry frowned still. "It's Bella."

That definitely caught my attention. I shot up and ran towards Embry. "Tell me what happened at Bella!" I was never going to forgive myself if anything bad had happened to her. Embry bit down on his lip and looked towards Sam. I grabbed him by the front of his shirt and clenched my teeth together. "Where. Is. She?!"

"She's in a meadow close to here, but that's not the problem." Embry told us. "I watched her for awhile and noticed that there was nothing harming her and ran away. The problem is that a leech is coming in her direction. I tried to go and catch him, but he ran off to the diversion line and I couldn't."

I was running outside into the forest as a wolf as Embry uttered the word 'couldn't'. I was running at top speed as I entered the edges of the meadow. I looked around and saw that the bloodsucker had his arms around my Bella. She was crying, although she didn't seem to notice it. I was about to run out and attack him when Sam entered my mind. 'You might hurt Bella if you attack Jacob, you have to be cautious.' I was not going to be cautious! I looked back at the leech and then noticed that He had bit down on her bare flesh and I hadn't done anything to stop it! I growled and sprang out as a loud scream tumbled from her beautiful lips. I grabbed the idiotic bloodsucker off of her as he smiled triumphantly.

"I knew that you were coming." The bloodsucker mumbled as Bella screamed once more. Her eyes were white and she was starring up to the sky. I saw Sam behind me and I tightened my grip around his neck. "You need me, I wouldn't do that."

Sam handed me some shorts and I transformed out of my wolf stage, still growling as I pulled on the shorts. "Damn it! I should have just killed him Sam!" I cringed as Bella shouted once more. "You did this to her!" I yelled at the leech and he nodded.

"I can undo it, but you can kill me if you want." He told me.

"Undo it!" I screamed.

Sam nodded and motioned towards the forest, where Embry, Jared, and Paul were all transformed into werewolves. I cursed a million times as the bloodsucker laughed. "I don't want too. I did this all for Victoria," he mentioned the redhead that we had been after. "What is done is done. I'm not going to change her back." He said with finality. Sam nodded towards the three as they lunged to take the leech away from me. I ran towards Bella's side, noticing that she even started to reek of a vampire.

"No, no." I muttered as I pulled her into my lap. "Bella, no."

Alice's POV
Wednesday – 9:00am

It was quite amazing how many months Edward could spend away from Bella. He had been in hiding since he had left Bella and had deserted our family. I was sitting on the porch with Esme and Jasper when it happened.

First it started out that Bella was just sitting in the meadow, but then there was something coming and Laurent had already decided that he was going to go and visit Bella, although he didn't know what he was going to do with her when he found her. He sniffed the air and found her scent again and walked towards her. It shifted to Jacob as he was told that there was a vampire going towards Bella and he decided to turn into a wolf and chase towards the meadow where Bella was sitting. Laurent had already taken Bella in his arms and was hovering above her neck when Jacob had arrived. He was about to attack when Laurent bit down on Bella's bare neck, leaving the venom inside her. The wolf pack tried to make Laurent undo it, but he wouldn't so instead they killed him. Jacob ran over to Bella, but it was too late. She was already in her first stage of transformation.

"No!" I screeched as I opened my eyes. Bella… I moaned inside my head as Esme and Jasper looked at my strangely.

Esme looked at my worriedly. "What did you see Alice?"

"Bella…" I muttered as I sunk to my knees. I knew that it was too late; it was way too late to go and save Bella now. Jasper moved towards me and wrapped an arm around me, waiting for me to continue with me vision. I couldn't.

"Alice," he coaxed. "Tell us."

"It was horrible," I cried out. "She was in the meadow and then Laurent appeared and he bit her. He left venom in her and she's already in the first stage of her transformation." I bit on my lip and buried my head into Jasper's shoulder. Esme shot up from the place she had been sitting in and sat in front of me. "We have to go back and get her Esme!"

"I know, I know." Esme said, she whipped her head around and got up. "I'm going to talk to Carlisle; do you know when this will happen?"

"I think it's already been done." I muttered. I had no idea when this would happen, but I knew that we could never get there in time. "We can't get there in time." I mumbled. "It would take too long for us to get there and by the time we did, Bella will already be changed." I broke into dry sobs as Jasper wrapped his arms around me, pulling me towards his chest. I buried my head in his shoulder. "How could he let this happen?!"

"It's not his fault Alice, he didn't know." Jasper soothed me, his power pushing its way over my sadness. I glanced towards the sky, knowing that Jasper was right and that his power was working. Esme and Carlisle piled out into the porch. "I got her calm." Jasper mumbled.

Carlisle cleared his throat. "Do you think we can make it Alice?"

"No," I growled. "We're too late."

Emily's POV
Wednesday – 10:45am

Jacob scrunched up his nose as he carried Bella to my house. I brushed back a strand of my hair and opened the door hurriedly to see what was going on. I hadn't been notified of anything. Sam had just told me that something bad had happened to Bella. "What is it Jake?" I questioned curious as Jacob placed Bella on the sofa.

"A bloodsucker turned her." Jacob managed to get out before Bella's ear-splitting scream pierced the air. I looked out the window as Sam, Embry, Paul, and Jared filed in.

"That's not possible," I protested. "I thought that you were all keeping a close look-out on her." Jacob shuddered as Bella screamed and moaned in pain. I panicked and ran towards Bella. I placed a hand on her forehead, she was burning. What was I supposed to do? I ran towards the freezer to get ice, but Sam's hand caught my wrist. I looked up at him, the same panic in my eyes.

He ran a hand through my hair, "it won't help Emily."

"She's burning!" I muttered to him, but he wasn't listening to me. "Let me help her, Sam." I pleaded and he released me as I grabbed a towel and walked over to Bella who was squirming around and screaming. I pressed the cool towel to her forehead and bent my head to her ear. "Bella, calm down, you're going to be fine." I mumbled soothingly into her ear. She whimpered and I ran a hand through her as I kneeled down next to the sofa. "Who did this?" I shot fiercely at the pack.

"A leech that was working with Victoria." Jacob spat. "My poor Bella." He growled to himself then looked up at the rest of us. "I should have been there for her."

"It's not your fault Jacob," I uttered soothingly. "This would have happened anyways."

Jacob scowled. "No it wouldn't have! If I had stayed with her through-out the whole time, this wouldn't have happened. I can't believe I let it come to this. What I would have done to that filthy bloodsucker if Paul and Jared hadn't done it."

"Don't be hasty Jacob," I told him. He shook his head, his hair flipping out slightly. "Just calm down, everything is going to be fine now, I promise." I tried to tell him, but he wasn't listening. He was shaking and I threw my body over Bella, knowing that Jacob was going to harm something since he was transforming. He was closet to me and as he transformed, I felt a nail rip the back of my shirt before being pulled away.

"Dammit Jacob, control yourself! Don't you dare touch her!" Sam spat as I turned around slowly, Bella was whimpering again and had clutched my shirt collar. I saw Paul and Jared pulling Jacob fiercely outside the house. I felt the prickle of pain as Sam touched the slight scratch. "I'm so sorry love." Sam told me and kissed my temple before ordering Embry to bring him a bandage and a cloth with soap.

I smiled weakly, "I'll live." I dropped my head towards Bella. "I'm not so sure about her."

"She'll make it," Sam told me confidently. "It's just a very painful transformation for a normal human to change suddenly into a vampire. Her pain will pass in three days…and then what do you think we should do with her?" He asked me as he dabbed the cloth on the scratch. "Does it hurt?"

"No," I answered quickly.

Bella screamed and Sam winced as I did. "What do you think we should do…after this?"

"Do we know any other vampires?" I questioned lightly and Sam shook his head. "Do you think that the Cullen's are around, Sam?" He scrunched his nose up at the mention of their enemies' name. "She'll need them."

"I—I don't think that would be reasonable." Sam stammered.

I stared at him, "then what would be reasonable? Leave Bella to die? You know that we're can't do that. If you're not going to take care of her after and you're not going to let the Cullen's do it, then I will."

"No you won't," argued Sam. "I don't want you anywhere near Bella once this is over. She could harm you worst then I did." I flinched at his choice of words. "I'm sorry love," he muttered and I nodded, "but Jacob or I will take care of her, I don't have to the Cullen's number and I don't know where they could have possibly gone."

Bella cried out and clutched me closer to her. Sam gently pried her hands off of me and held me close to him. "I just worry about her Sam; she was practically family and now…look what happened at her."

He kissed my hair gently and then moved to my cheek and ruined lips. "Everything will be fine Emily, I promise."

Emmett's POV
Wednesday – 9:10am

"Something's wrong." I muttered as Rosalie shifted her glance to me. She looked at me curiously and then turned back to the ocean that was near where we were staying. "I can just feel that something is wrong Rose."

"I think you're exaggerating. You just want to go back home, don't you?" Rosalie spat and I rolled my eyes at her. That wasn't the problem though, I could feel in the pit of my stomach that there was something wrong and that shook me horribly. Rosalie rested her head against my shoulder. "You're being stupid; if something was wrong then Carlisle or Esme would call us—"

Ring. Ring. Ring.

The familiar tone of my cell-phone started and I eyed Rosalie seriously. She handed me the phone as I flipped it open. "What is it?" I questioned into the phone.

Carlisle was on the other side of the conversation. "Its bad news, I'm afraid."

"What do you mean bad news?" I asked and Rosalie looked over to me, her eyes wide. She finally believed me and I nodded to her as she stayed silent. "Is there something wrong with Alice? Jasper? Esme…? I know there's nothing wrong with you, since you're calling…could it possibly be Edward?"

"No, none of them. It's worst." Carlisle said his voice completely even. "Alice was too caught up in hysterics to call, you know she would have." I nodded and I knew that Carlisle knew what I was doing, but kept silent. "It's Bella."

Bella?! That couldn't be possible; we had left her life to make her life easier. Edward had told us that if we left Bella, she would be safe. "What is it Carlisle?" I spat out angrily, Bella was like a little sister to me.

"Laurent turned her." Carlisle sighed. "It turns out that leaving her alone only made things easier for Laurent and Victoria. The wolves did not protect her either."

"We're coming right away." I muttered and Rosalie nodded. She had overheard the whole conversation and I knew that deep down inside of her, she loved Bella like a sister and cared about her well-being. "Have you gotten in contact with Edward?"

Carlisle took a deep breath. "Not yet, I'm going to try right after this."

"We'll be home soon Carlisle." I told him and shut off the phone after a quick good-bye. I grabbed Rosalie's hand and she gripped mine tightly. "We just have to make sure that Bella's okay, is that alright?" I questioned, although I knew that even if she said no, I would go anyways.

"Definitely," Rosalie breathed.

Edward's POV
Wednesday – 9:11am

I was wandering along a street, not really paying attention to anything that was happening around me when my phone started to buzz. Over the passing months—that passed by slowly, almost as if to torture me—I hadn't answered my phone once, unless it was an emergency. I rolled my eyes as the name, "Carlisle" passed across the front of the phone. I shrugged and pocketed the phone once more. I brushed a hand across my forehead and tried to block Bella out of my mind, but it was not working. The ringing finally silenced and a beep was heard. I flipped open my phone and pressed the voice-mail button. Fine, I would listen to a voice-mail if it was left; I was not going to call him back, unless it was important.

"Edward," Carlisle voice was firm and stern. "You better come home after I tell you what happened. It's about Bella. Alice saw that soon, Bella is going to be turned by Laurent, but there is no way that we can stop it. We're too far away and Alice predicts that it will be soon. I would be surprised if you didn't know, but I'm just telling you in case. Come back Edward, Bella needs you."

The voice-mail ended and I almost dropped the phone, anger rising and panic at the same time. Bella was in-trouble. She was going to be turned! I hadn't been scanning Alice's mind since she always asked me to come home and stay with them. Bella was in Forks still, the rest of my family was almost across the country; of course they couldn't stop it. I couldn't either! I balled my hands in fist and then crouched on the ground, punching the ground. This was not happening. Bella was not about to be changed. I searched for Laurent's mind.

'She's alone.' Laurent observed. 'That's a first, soon it will be time.'

NO! I shouted mentally. Before I could think about it anymore, I bolted towards the woods. I had to get to Bella, even if it was too late.
