New Neighbors

Anna Belle was speeding down I-90E at over 180 MPH. Speeding past cops who didn't even think to pull her over. The laptop on the seat next to her read '55mph', which was what the cops were reading on their radars as they scanned the car speeding past. Her eyes never left the road as she maneuvered the car quickly and easily around the slower traffic.

The phone on the seat next to her rang. She picked it up, seeing Rosalie's cell phone number for the 12th time that night. She hit the reject button again hating that she couldn't talk to her. She couldn't let them know what she was doing, not just yet as she put the phone down and continued to speed.

*****************************

Sam was pacing in Billy's living room, growling almost. “I can't believe this! This is not good, Billy. Especially if she doesn't come back.”

“I know that, Sam. I know what can happen, as long as......” Billy started when there was a sudden banging at the door. Billy looked at Sam before going to answer the door. Embry was standing at the door looking almost like a wild man. “Embry, this is a surprise. Jacob isn't here.”

“I'm not here to see him, I'm here to see Sam. Where is she, Sam?” Embry growled the words at his packs Alpha male.

“We don't know and neither do the Cullens. She suddenly just disappeared for no reason, no nothing. Neither of the two psychics saw it coming.” Sam said, his voice a calming one.

Embry growled loudly then. “Curse you two for making her scent masked by those accursed herbs! We can't even go seek her out because of them.”

“She would still be silent without those herbs. They have helped her and harmed her in a way but they did more good than bad.” Sam was becoming more upset that his pack member was acting like this was their fault.

“He's right, Embry. We must be patient, I'm sure she will contact the Cullen's and they will contact us.” Billy watched the boy as he moved out of his way, knowing it was safer that way for him.

Embry started to growl and Sam was in front of him moments later. “You will wait. I know it's hard, but you must wait. She will contact them, I know she will.” Embry looked down and away. “Now go, you have patrol and you will stay upon the reservation.” He stated very clearly.

“Yes, Sam. Good night, Billy.” He softly said before turning around and walking out, much like a wolf with his tail between his legs.

“I am sorry about that, Billy.” Sam said, turning to Billy who was softly laughing.

“Ah, yes. Young love.” Billy joked softly making Sam arch an eye brow. “Things will get better, they did for you and Emily didn't they?”

“Yes, but there is one added factor. The Cullen family. Esme seems to be all for it, but Rosalie, and Edward are dead set against it.” Sam explained.

“Which is a normal reaction if you think about it, Sam.” Billy pointed out to him. “Give it time, they'll come around. I can bet upon it.”

*******************************

Edward sat with the phone at his ear, shocked. “Who is this?” He growled the words out.

A giggle greeted him. “Oh poor boy, were you looking for your girlfriend? Well, she is busy right now. You might want to try back later.” The giggle came again.

“If you hurt her, I swear I will........” He growled again.

“You will what? You don't even know where she is.” The voice said just before the line disconnected.

Edward roared as he rushed downstairs to join the rest of the family, who sat in the living room talking. Everyone looked up, shocked when he barged in. He was about to speak when his cell phone went off. He looked down, frowning. It was Charlie. “Hello, Chief Swan. What do I......” His voice sounded calm, but he wasn't.

“Bella's mother didn't send her a plane ticket to go to Chicago. I finally got a hold of Renee, she told me that they're still in Florida.” Charlie's voice was panicked. “Then, I called the airline. She never got on the plane.”

Edwards eyes were narrowing as he tried desperately to not crush the phone in his hand. “Thank you for calling me, Chief Swan. We will let you know if she calls. Call us as well.” He hung up before saying good bye looking at the others. “Bella's mother didn't send the tickets.”

“It was a trick! It had to be, but by who would do that and why?” Alice looked at everyone worried.

“It might be Alexander trying to get back at you guys for Anna Belle, so he took Bella.” Blaine suggested.

“But where would he take her?” Esme asked, her voice filled with worry for the two girls.

Blaine shrugged. “Any number of places. Anna Belle's cell phone, you can look up any numbers calling in correct?”

“Of course, Duh.” Rosalie sprang into action, going to the computer. They had added Anna Belle's phone to their family plan.

“We let her keep her number, I guess that may have been a bad idea.” Carlisle followed Rosalie to the computer, looking up the numbers. “That one. Do a reverse search on it.” Carlisle said. Sure enough the phone number came up registered to Alexander. “He did call her, just before she took off.”

“This gives us one clue. What about you Alice honey, anything?” Jasper turned to Alice who shook her head, feeling horrible. “It is not your fault, she is blocking you. When she wants us to know, she'll let us know through you.”

“Could she be going to Chicago?” Edward thought instantly.

“It is hard to say, we don't know where Alexander made that call from.” Blaine looked at all the Cullens. He was truly glad his Anna Belle fell upon these people. “I am sure we will know soon.”

*********************************

Anna Belle was speeding past Belle Fourche, SD, again close to 200 mph. She was greatful the engine was built for speed. She had eaten up over 1200 miles in 6 hours at her current speed. Luckily, there were no other cars on the road making it easier to drive. Her mind was still a whirl with different things when she suddenly pulled off to gas up. She went to pay for the gas, looking down at the card in her wallet. She looked up at the guy behind the counter as she pulled the card out—instead of cash as she had the last few stops.

While she was gassing up the car, she leaned back against the car and closed her eyes clearing it of all thoughts before opening them again. Thinking of only one place, thinking of her destination, she moved to the front of the car to check a few things.

**********************************

A ding on the computer made everyone jump at once. Rosalie, who was still on it, saw an alert pop up. “She used her gas card. She's in....South Dakota?” She frowned looking up just in time.

Alice gasped as she sat back fully, her eyes going blank. Esme rushed up the stairs and came back down with a pad of paper and a pencil while Jasper spoke softly to her. “What do you see, Alice?”

“A house, an older house. It's not right, though. It looks too new.” Alice said, confusing everyone. When Esme put the paper and pencil down upon the coffee table, Jasper helped Alice to her knees and positioned her hands upon the paper and pencil which she picked up and started to sketch instantly. Soon enough, Blaine gasped.

“You know the place ,I take it?” Edward looked to Blaine.

“It's Anna Belle's childhood home. That's where she is going. She is going to Chicago. It must be where Alexander is.” Blaine exclaimed.

“It would explain the female voice that answered Bella's phone and laughed at me.” Edward admitted, making everyone look at him in shock that he hadn't mentioned it before. “How long would it take to get to Chicago from Forks?”

Rosalie started typing on the computer. “Driving, over 33 hours.”

“But that's driving at a normal speed, we are talking about Anna Belle and her car.” Blaine said softly, walking over to Rosalie. He looked at the miles between the two places. He laughed. “She can make that in 10 hours if she goes 200, less if she uses the turbo boost.”

“At least we know she's safe.” Esme softly said. “But how can we get to Chicago in time to save them both?”

Jasper pulled out his cell phone and hit a speed dial number and walked out of the room. “Seems that he will be using his special contact.” Edward answered Esme's question.

The family waited for Jasper to return to the room. After ten minutes, he walked back in looking at the family. “A private jet will be waiting for us at an airstrip in Seattle. It will take about an hour for it to get there, though.”

“That's plenty of time for us to get there.” Carlisle nodded as everyone stood ready to leave right then and there. “Two cars should do it, I think we will have enough room for everyone.”

“How long will a plane trip take?” Rosalie asked.

“Four hours, give or take. It should get us there just after Anna Belle arrives.” Jasper answered.

“Hopefully it will get us there before there are any problems, but what about when we get there? We will need some sort of transportation.” Edward suggested.

Blaine smiled. “I can easily take care of that. I have some friends there who can pick us up.” He pulled his own phone from his pocket and sent a text.

“Good. Now that that's settled, we can get going.” Carlisle suggested as Esme nodded. “Esme, Alice, Jasper, Edward, we can drive together. Blaine, Rosalie, and Emmett, you take the other car.”

“All right, that sounds good.” Edward agreed.

“Wait....that means you have both psychics in the car with you, and we don't won't know what is going on.” Rosalie instantly complained.

“It will only be about a half hour car trip, not much can be seen in that time.” Emmett said softly to Rosalie.

“I don't care. We either get Edward or Alice.” Rosalie snapped.

Edward shook his head at Rosalie's outburst. “I will go with Rosalie and the others.” He looked at the others. “This way if Alice sees anything else, I can tell them.”

“All right then Blaine, you can ride with us then.” Carlisle said while Blaine simply nodded, still talking on the phone.

Soon enough they were all gathering into the cars and headed towards Seattle. Once they arrived they found a large private jet waiting for them. “Wow, you really did a good job on getting a plane this quickly, Jasper.” Esme said looking up at the large jet.

“Just the same guy I always use.” Jasper said being as secretive as always.

“Well, it seems that he can do more than just get paperwork pushed through.” Carlisle was impressed.

“Yes, that he can.” Jasper nodded as they all approached the plane. They all stopped suddenly as they sniffed. “What in the world?”

Edward twirled around and growled softly under his breath. “Embry, show yourself.” He called out. To everyone's surprise Embry came out from his hiding spot by the hanger. “What are you doing here?”

“What do you think? I am coming with to get Anna Belle back.” Embry ran forward slowly dressed in only a pair of shorts.

“No way! You're not coming with us.” Rosalie snapped at that point.

“Yes he is. He came all this way and he wants to bring Anna Belle back, we will let him come with us.” Esme stood her ground. “Come on, now lets get on that jet.”

“Good evening, Mr. Hale.” The pilot nodded at the family as they boarded the plane.

Once on board, they all settled in together in pairs with their mates. All but Edward and Blaine who sat together. “Bella will be all right Edward, Anna Belle will stop him from doing anything to her.”

“But at what price for Anna Belle?” Edward looked to Blaine just as the jet took off.

Esme and Carlisle sat with Embry who looked nervous. “How did you get off of the reservation? Sam said you wouldn't be able to until he told you that you could.” Carlisle softly asked Embry.

Embry looked at Carlisle straight on. “I did it to save Anna Belle, I knew the moment she left I wanted to go after her, but I can't smell her at all. So I defied Sam somehow and came to your house, and listened in. The moment I knew you were coming here, I set off running here keeping my mind blank.”

“You are going to be in a lot of trouble when we get back.” Esme softly said.

“It will be worth it to have Anna Belle back where she belongs.” Embry said with a small smile.

********************************

Alexander sat watching Bella as she slept. But soon, she moaned and he smiled brightly as he watched her slowly wake up. Her brown eyes looked up with fear suddenly appearing in them. “Well, look who's finally awake.” Alexander smiled down at Bella.

“Oh my God, where am I?” Bella asked looking around, shocked to find herself in a box.

“Don't worry my dear, soon enough you will be one of us. Just as soon as Anna Belle arrives.” Alexander's laugh was ice cold.

“Don't you dare hurt Anna Belle!” Bella yelled at him.

Alexander leaned down towards Bella smirking. “You are in no position to tell me what to do.” He smirked, this girl would be fun to break to his will, and break her, he will.

*********************************

Anna Belle's car came to a screeching halt in front of the average Chicago bungalow. Faded memories itched at her mind, memories that Blaine told her about. This was her childhood home. She took a deep breath. Alexander had been here, and still was. She slipped out of the car and heard cat calls from some drunken guys across the street. She twirled around growling at them, instantly shutting them up, before moving swiftly towards the house as they ran away. Once they were gone, she could easily break into the house.

Once inside, she moved slowly through the first floor. She soon found herself looking at a line of photos of herself. There were so many of them.

“You look more beautiful now than back then.” Alexanders voice came from behind her softly. She turned to face him slowly. He frowned looking at her hair. “I forgot how your hair normally looks, and those clothes.” She didn't bother to look at herself. “They definitely need to go.”

“They are not going anywhere Alexander, but you will give me Bella and leave here, never to bother us again.” Her golden eyes looking deeply into his blood red eyes that narrowed in anger.

“You little, I think I need to teach you your manners again.” He growled going to take a step towards her. Suddenly he stopped short, watching her oddly. But suddenly, he moved swiftly grabbing her arms quickly. She hardly had time to realize what he was doing before she started to struggle. He started to move, pulling her down towards the basement. Once down there, she saw Bella in the box. Oh God, no! He couldn't mean to turn her. “We are leaving now.”

“Why?” Morgan asked, looking at Alexander oddly as he slammed Anna Belle against a wall, pinning her to it.

“Just do as I say! Prep the girl to leave.” Alexander snapped as he turned to Anna Belle with a grin. “Now, as for you.....” He whispered with a smile when suddenly there was a bang upstairs, making him pause for a moment. No one moved or made a sound which made the bang when the door slammed open much louder as the basement door opened.

Anna Belle's eyes went wide as a wolf suddenly leaped down the stairs, landing on the ground with no problem, his eyes squarely upon Alexander. Rosalie was the first in the door and leaping down the stairs after the wolf. The others soon following. “Let her go Alexander or the dog gets to eat.” Rosalie threatened.

“Hey! Don't you threaten him.” Morgan snapped as Loreen stood further back away from everyone.

“You were all warned to stay away from Anna Belle.” Carlisle softly and calmly said but the anger he felt could be heard in his tone.

“How dare you talk to Alexander like that.” Morgan growled as she launched herself at Carlisle. The wolf then launched at Morgan, taking a chunk out of her side,making her scream.

Alexander turned away from Anna Belle, giving her the perfect moment to strike as she sank her teeth into Alexander's exposed throat and pumped as much venom into him as she could. Alexander couldn't scream or do anything as he felt her pumping venom into his system. He was truly shocked. Within seconds, he was pumped with enough venom that he was growing weak.

Esme moved slowly closer to Anna Belle. “Anna Belle honey, stop now. Please stop.” She cooed softly, trying to bring her back to them.

Anna Belle slowly stopped and started to pull back from Alexander. Alexander fell to his knees, his body weakening already, as Jasper and Emmett rushed forward to grab him. Edward rushing to Bella to release her from the box.

The others looked to Morgan, who was now in pieces on the floor. The wolf, having pulled her apart, was now moving over to Anna Belle, moving his head under her hand in a form of greeting. Anna Belle spared the wolf a smile before looking up at Loreen. She slowly moved towards the other woman.

Loreen looked down at the pieces that were her sister as they were gathered up. She looked up at Anna Belle. “What are you going to do with me?”

Anna Belle looked at Loreen for a moment before speaking. “You told Blaine where we had moved to?”

Loreen smiled. “Yes, I did. I always tried to make sure that if you couldn't him that I would.”

“Why? You hated me as much as Morgan did.” Anna Belle asked softly.

“At first yes. But soon, I didn't. I felt pity for you and felt bad for you.” Loreen softly spoke. “You didn't choose this life, Alexander chose it for you. That wasn't fair of him.” She looked at Morgan with a sigh. “ I did nothing to try and stop this, and now I must be destroyed, as she is.”

“No, you don't have to die. You can still live, maybe not with the Cullen's but somewhere.” Blaine stepped forward towards the two of them.

“No, she and I are twins. I can't see myself living without her, we are two halves of the same whole.” Loreen smiled. “I don't want to live without her.”

Carlisle sighed softly. “You can go to Volterra, plead your case to them. They can at least make it painless.”

“I know. I'll go to them now. I'm glad I got to meet you Anna Belle, and see you finally stand up to Alexander. I wish I could have been so strong.” Loreen smiled as she kissed the girls cheek before heading up the stairs and out of the house.

“Anna Belle?” A woman's voice asked softly. Anna Belle turned around to face the elderly couple huddled in a corner. The couples eyes grew wide with happiness. “Oh, Anna Belle.” The woman rushed forward to hug her. “ My, you're so cold.”

The others in the room had grown still and shocked at the elderly people. Anna Belle looked at them with an expression that screamed she didn't recognize them. She wondered who Alexander had taken that who knew who she was.

“Jackson. Maria. She doesn't remember you. She's like me, remember? We talked about what I am,. Once a human is turned, they lose their human memories.” Blaine softly explained, hardly skipping a beat.

“Oh god, I forgot that. I'm sorry. Anna Belle, honey, I am your mother. This is your father.” Maria smiled at Anna Belle who tilted her head at them, curiosity in her mind. The couple had aged well that she could tell.

Esme moved forward, trying to settle the situation. “Hello. I am Esme Cullen. This is my husband, Carlisle. These are our children. Edward, Rosalie, and Alice. The two boys who took the man out of here are Jasper and Emmett.” She smiled as Rosalie started towards Anna Belle. A soft yelp brought Esme's attention to Embry. “Oh and this is Embry.”

“Well, it's nice to meet you. I am Jackson Logan and this is my wife, Maria. How do you know Blaine and Anna Belle?” Jackson smiled at the people in his basement as though they were friends.

“Well, we have adopted Anna Belle. Bella, Edward's girlfriend, brought it to her fathers attention that Anna Belle needed help. Since I am a doctor, I was called in to check her out physically. Once we knew she was truly one of us, we knew we had to take her in.” Carlisle explained as he approached them. Soon, Esme and Carlisle were standing right across from Jackson and Maria, with Anna Belle standing in the middle looking lost and confused.

“Its all right that you don't remember us, honey. It has been a very long time.” Maria smiled as she looked at Esme. “I'm so glad you have a mother to care for you now.”

“We will take good care of her, She is already like a daughter to us.” Esme smiled. “If you like, you can come to Washington to visit her anytime.”

“Maybe we will take you up on that offer. Thank you, Blaine. You finally bought our Anna Belle home to us, just like you promised.” Jackson smiled at the other man.

“You're welcome. But I think we should get going home. Anna Belle looks tired.” Blaine softly rubbed a hand upon her cheek as she yawned. “She has been sick all these years due to that mans care of her.”

“It was nice seeing you again, Anna Belle. We will come visit you soon, hopefully we can bring you some things from you're old room. Would that be okay?” Maria smiled at her daughter.

Anna Belle smiled back at the woman. “That would be nice.”

Soon, the clean-up was done, and the good byes were said. Anna Belle's car was loaded onto a car dolly attached to a large van. Once everyone was in the large van, Embry transformed back into his human form. After putting his shorts on, he grabbed at Anna Belle, pulling her tightly to him. “Don't ever do that again.” He whispered into her hair.

“I won't.” Anna Belle softly said, her body curling against him.

Edward watched the two lovers as he held Bella to him. She had fallen asleep, everything being too much for her. He looked down at her, brushing a finger upon her cheek before leaning down to kiss her lips gently. He turned to Esme with a smile. “You were right, Esme. This did turn out all right.”

“I told you it would.” Esme smiled over at Edward.

**************************

Soon enough, they were at the air strip where the jet waited for them. Anna Belle's car was quickly loaded into the cargo hold of the plane while Edward took Bella onto the plane. Embry was quick to follow, with Anna Belle cradled in his arms. Rosalie followed growling at him, while Jasper, Alice, and Emmett followed her, giggling quietly.

Esme stood watching Embry and Anna Belle with a smile. Carlisle walked up to her and held her gently. “What are you thinking, my love?”

“That we are witnessing something beautiful and wonderful all over again.” Esme smiled.

“What's that?” Carlisle asked.

“New Love.” Esme simply said before they boarded the plane to head back to Forks.
