My whole body was begging for sleep when I got back form running around while trying to track down a missing person. I'd been out there all night and just got back at three am.

Laying back on my bed, I sighed contently and started to fall asleep. Until my phone started to ring. I rolled onto my stomach and tired to ignored it. Whoever it was, they really wanted to talk.

With a low growl, I answered the phone. "Hello?"

"I'm sorry if I woke you up, Katherine." Carlisle voice fully awoke me. I knew something had to be wrong for him to call me at this time of night.

"Is something wrong?" I asked while sitting up and turning the lamp on.

"Do you know of Bella? I'm sure Edward has spoken to you about her."

I rolled my eyes thinking of what Edward always talks about. "Yeah, she's all I hear about form him." I mumbled lazily as I walked into the small kitchen.

"Unfortunately, a vampire known as Victoria has been wanting to kill her. A mate for a mate. Recently, she's been getting closer."

This was serious. My family was in danger. Bella included. "So, you guys need me there to keep her safe." I talked into the phone as I fixed me coffee. It was obvious I wasn't going to sleep anytime soon.

"Edward asked for you to come. Also, we all miss you."

"When do I come?"

"Alice has already got you a flight at five. We need you here soon as possible."

I stiffened a yawn. "Sure thing. See ya soon."

"Stay safe."

I wasn't too happy about this. I only have two hours to pack and get ready. Plus, I hate flying. With an annoyed growl, I started throwing clothes into a bag. After taking a shower, I changed into a black long sleeve v-neck, white jeans, and knee high suede boots. My wavy dark auburn hair wouldn't do anything so, I pulled it into a messy bun.

I tried to hide the bags under my green eyes, but it wouldn't work.

Luckily, it didn't take long for me to get through security. As soon as I got onto the plane, I tried to sleep.

Georgia to Washington. Great.

"Miss, its time to leave the plane."

I dragged myself up, grabbed my carryon's and left the plane. I quickly found out that Alice bought me a car. One I had always wanted. A might night blue Mustang with black pinstripes. Thank you, Alice.


Pulling into the driveway, I stiffened another yawn. I really needed more sleep. Leaving my bags in the car, I walked toward the front door. Not much has change since I was last here. Everything looked exactly the same. I wasn't surprised to find Alice grinning through the glass.

"Hey Alice."

She smiled and checked out what I was wearing. "You dressed nice." Alice mumbled sounding surprised.

"Don't I have to?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

Her smile only grew as she pulled me into the house. Alice was so tiny she made me feel so tall. Even though I was only five foot six.

"Hey, Kat's here!" Emmett's voice boomed through the house.

I couldn't help but smile slightly. As soon as he came into eyesight, I was pulled into a bear hug. "I missed you too, Em."

He laughed as he sat me back on the ground. "Now I have someone to wrestle with."

Emmett and me are really close. He's pretty much a big playful brother to me. We wrestled all the time but, Em was always extra careful. Although, that didn't stop Esme from getting worried.

I laughed as I playfully punched his arm.

"I thought I heard your voice, Katherine." Esme's voice made me turn around. "Its great to see you."

I smiled and pulled her into a hug. Esme was the most motherly of the Cullen's. It reminded me most of my own mom. Rosalie is Emmett's mate/wife. She's never seemed to fully like me. I really wanted to know why. Jasper was next to give me a hug. I always called him Jazz. He's Alice's mate.

"How was Georgia?" He asked curiously. Jazz was also from the south. He had more of an accent than I did.

"Warm." I kept it simple as I really started to feel the exhaustion hit me.

He smiled but, it quickly faded. "You're exhausted."

I happily entered my newly cleaned room. The first thing I did was slip off my shoes, lay on my bed, and sleep. It felt nice to be around the Cullen's again. But, I did wonder how Bella would react to me. Also, I wanted to meet the wolf shifters.

I snuggled under the covers and quickly drifted off to sleep. Sadly, it only lasted for a couple of hours.

"Kat! Wake up!"

I opened my eyes with a groan and automatically glared at the jumping Alice. "Why are you on my bed?"

She flashed one of her famous grins. "Edward needs you."

I sighed sitting up, I wasn't going to get any more sleep. "For what?"

"He just wants you to get the scent of the newborn that was at Bella's."

Since it was that serious, I'll go. "I'll be there soon. Wait, where am I going?"

"Emmett put the address in the GPS."

I nodded while redoing my bun. "I'll be back later."

I was still tired and I was quickly getting on edge while driving to Bella's. I felt like something big was about to happen. With a sigh, I shook my head.
