This is my first Twilight fic. Hope you enjoy!

It all happened so quickly. All I remember was watching him die. Watching her as she ripped him apart. I was completely vulnerable now. She threw what was left of him into the fire. I couldn’t take it any more. I screamed at the top of my lungs, hoping that someone down below would hear me. Seth couldn’t do anything, as he was still taking care of Riley.

Her eyes found mine, those cold red eyes. She was in front of me in an instant. Her cold fingers wrapped around my throat tightly blocking my air. I struggled, I knew I wouldn’t win so I don’t know what the point was. If I was going to die, then at least I was going to see him again. I stopped struggling, accepting my fate.

The look on Victoria’s face was that of confusion. The next thing I knew, I was on the ground. I heard snarling, looking up I saw a large russet colored wolf hovering over me protectively. I noticed movement to my right and saw Seth coming up next to Jacob. Jake attacked Victoria, ripping her to shreds. I looked away, I just couldn’t watch.

When it was all over, I felt Jacob’s face nuzzle my shoulder. I looked up. Looking over to the fire and the foul smoke rising up into the air. It suddenly hit me, Edward was gone. I felt as if my heart shattered into a million pieces. I couldn’t take it, I screamed. I cried, the pain was unbearable. Edward couldn’t be dead, he just couldn’t.

I wrapped my arms around Jacob, burying my face into his fur and cried. I felt like all of this was a dream. No, not a dream, a nightmare. I waited to wake up, to stop the pain. I wanted Edward there, to comfort me, to tell me that he’ll never leave me.

“Bella? Bella!” A voice was calling my name. I didn’t look up, I couldn’t look up. I felt a cold hand on my shoulder. I turned my head to see Carlisle standing there. I let go of Jacob’s fur, trying to wipe the tears from my eyes.

“Bella, where’s Edward?” he asked me. I flinched when he said his name. He seemed to notice. He pulled me to him, lifting my chin so I could look at him.

“Bella, what happened to Edward?” he repeated. I opened my mouth, but no words came out. I looked to the fire that was still burning, a new wave of tears were coming. I looked down. Carlisle turned his head to see what I was looking at. He didn’t say anything. I felt him lift me up. I held on as he sped down the mountain.

Soon, we arrived to the field where the others were. The foul smoke filled my lungs, making me cough. I looked over to see another fire. I saw Jasper kneeling by a new born, trying to calm her. She glared at me. I looked away from her.

“Bella, what happened? I saw the fight between Edward and Victoria then you disappeared,” Alice was at my side in an instant. She wrapped her arms around me. I flinched away when she said his name, “Bella, please talk to me,” she asked but Carlisle placed his hand on her shoulder, shaking his head. Alice looked back at me, her eyes searching mine. I don’t know what she found, but she must have realized that something was terribly wrong.

All I could do was cry. Alice let go of me, I just slumped to the ground trying so hard not to cry. I wasn’t having much success. I tried to distract myself, looking around. I saw Carlisle standing next to Jasper while he continued to calm the new born.

I looked over to see Emmet standing by the fire. He didn’t look like himself.

“Emmet? What’s wrong?” I asked shakily. He turned to me, his topaz eyes looking into my chocolate brown ones. I saw pain in his eyes. I got up to walk over to him. Somewhere along the way, I tripped. Before I could hit the ground, Emmet wrapped his cold strong arms around me. I looked up to meet his eyes.

“I’m sorry Bella. Rose was killed,” he said, “I heard about what happened. I’m so sorry Bella.”

“Me too,” I whispered, feeling the tears come again. Emmet held me close, I buried my face into his chest and cried.

“Alice? Alice what is it?” I heard Carlisle say. I looked over to see Alice’s eyes glazed over.

“They’re coming,” she said, worried.

“Alice?” I asked. I was afraid to know who. Alice looked at me.

“The Volturi.”
