Chapter 7 : A Crate

As i lay there, tucked underneath Jacobs arm i felt my eyelids get heavy until i fell asleep. I didn't dream that night, I couldn't feel. I was too numb to notice. The pain of losing someone i cared about was killing me. I woke up to morning light shining off of me, Jacob wasn't there? He must've left already.

Then my phone rang, I suddenly hated that phone. It used to be what would connect me to the people i loved, and now when i look at it i see hate and death. I was less anxious when i saw that the caller was my father,

"Hello?" I answered, clearing my throat

"Goodmorning renesmee, did i wake te up?" He asked apologeticly

"No father, i was just awake before then."

"I was just calling to, check up on you"

I sighed, "Do te really think it's safe?"

"Oh , renesmee" he laughed "Your doubt in us in kind of insulting.."

I smiled, "There's nothing i can do?"

"Even if there was, we wouldn't let you."

I bit my lip "That's what jake had said... Where's mom?"

"She's out preparing for the fight with the rest, and im on my way to unisciti them. Be careful, Good bye"

"Bye!"

I hung up the phone, I don't care what they said. This is unreasonable and ridiculous. Especially when we already had enough on our plate. I looked around the house to find somthing to occupie myself with, Hmm, cleaning should do the trick. I started to fold clothes when i heard someone come in;

"Hello!" I heard her greet, I turned around.

"Hey emily, te startled me!"

"Oh sorry, Sam detto that he wanted me to stay here just incase."

"I think this is completly ridiculous, There was really no need for a fight."

Emily looked down , then back up. "Well, that's sam and jacob for you.."

We both smiled, "Are te hungry o thirsty o anything?" I asked

"Just some water, please"

I made my way into the cucina got out two glasses, I poured the water and put 2 ice cubs in and headed back out into the livingroom where emily sat. I handed her, her water and sat down beside her with mine.

"Thank-you"

"Your welcome"

I Saw emily look at my arm, then back at me.

"Is that from alex?" i heard her say meekly.

I nodded, "Yes, it dosn't really hurt anymore though. Just this and a minor councussion."

"You know renesmee, sam never thought he could hate another lupo as much as he does now, He resents alex and the others.."

"You know, it worries me. Between the all of us we have 18, They most likely have 16 o more. I don't know why thier saying this is an easy fight. I mean If anything it's not going to be easy at all.."

She nodded lightly, "I know" Then she smiled "But i have faith in them". Her smile seemed to reassure me, I nodded in agreement. Somthing didn't feel right about the fight, the way alex was all to eager. I know his goal was to get rid of the cullens.. but he did say the only way he could was at thier weak point.

I started to domanda his alterior motives. Then it dawned on me. The fight was just a distraction, A mere side mostra and i was the main attraction this time. I felt my cup slip out of my hands and roll to the floor,

"Renesmee? are te okay?" I heard emily ask worried

" Emily, im going to make a call ill be right back." I left in a hurry before she could respond. I gotfar enough away from the house then dialed;

"Alex?" I said. I felt my breathing get heavier.

"Ah, renesmee. Im looking foward to.. tonight." He gloated.

" I know what te have planned!" i alarmed him. Suddenly the call dropped. I felt a presence behind me.

"Renesmee, te know. Ive been thinking. if i kill you, that's it game over. But if i dont they cansuffer more. Not knowing whether your dead o alive.. Not being able to find you.." He laughed.

Suddenly the world felt heavy as the reality of this set in. Darkness took over my body, the world slipped through my fingers as this new, personal solitude of emptyness filled it's place. I couldn't feel, hear o see anything. Everything was gone. Was this death?

Suddenly i jolted awake.I looked around the dark room i was now placed in. Unfilmiliar. The walls were chipped and smelled of moss. The floor, cold. Cement? I thought. I pulled my hands over it, No it was dirt. Was i underground? It was so dark, i couldn't see anything. , My phone! i thought. No, i couldn't answer now, there were no bars.

Maybe it was best if they were to think i was dead. Had he left this here to taunt me? Would he know that i wouldn't be able to asnwer it. I let it go to voicemail. I held it in my hand. I checked through it; 5 messages. The least i could do was listen.

I listened to the first one;
"Renesmee?" I heard my mothers panicked voice "Where are you? emily detto te left in a hurry, please call me back, i Amore you" I heard the tone beep and clicked to the successivo message
This time it was my father

"alex and his pack, they didn't mostra up! Renesmee, are te with them? I swear if they laid a hand on you.." His voice, angry as if it was directed straight towards them. "Please call me back, if te can"

I bit my lip anxiously, How worried they must be. I hestated listening to the rest, the successivo voice i heard was jacobs;

"Renesmee, I swear when i get my hands on them! Please call us back if te can access a phone. Your so stupid! why didnt te stay at ho- Renesmee, i Amore you. Pleasee-" I heard jacobs voice break off.

Suddenly i felt my throat swell up. Would i ever got to see my family again? o was i destined to stay here for the rest of my life? Surely they wouldn't stop looking. I felt like giving up, but i couldn't. I had to fight, i cannot let alex win this. I pointed my phone around the room and used it as a light. As i scanned the room i saw in one corner two barrals, and a crowbar. In the middle of the room was a small spazio carpet. Right across from me was a ladder conncecting to a door.

The room reminded me of a storm celler. I was locked away forever, until this storm blew over. I tried to stand up, but fell back down. It felt as if needles had gone through my whole body. I was filled with brusises and cuts. It felt like gravity was pulling my almost lifeless body down, holding me there captured.

I waited. The waiting was the worst, waiting for someone to come; anyone. I felt my lip tremble lightly but held it back. I would not let alex win. Not this time. Suddenly a flow f light bursted into the room and blinded my dark adjusted eyes. A fimilair voice had broken the scilence;

"You know everyones wondering where te are.. at school..at home. It's quite amusing. Im surprised your little family hasn't captured me yet, hasn't killed me yet." he had a mocking grin streched across his face.

"Alex.." i detto in almost a whisper "Please don't , don't do this" .

He took a step closer and sat infront of me,
"Renesmee, if te had just loved me back. I couldv'e tooken care of te just as well as him!" His voice raised "WHY HIM? WHY NOT ME?" His voice lowered into a dark whisper "But i guess it dosn't matter anymore, seeing as me and the rest took care of him.."

I Felt my cuore stop and my stomach drop, Had they really killed jake? "No.. NO!" I argued. "WHAT DID te DO TO HIM?" He just couldn't be dead.

"It's okay though.." he detto soothingly, "Now we can be together!". He held me into an embrace until i pushed him away.

"Get away from me!"

"Wrong choice.." He muttered angrily. He climbed back up to the superiore, in alto and shut the door behind him. I was once again alone. Me, myself and I. No. Jacob couldn't he ju-

I pulled my legs upto my stomach and started to sob lightly. I knew i was a mess, i didn't have to see it to know it. The shock was still sending through my body and my cuore fell. Was there a point of living? I couldn't imagine a world without jake. A world without my family. After awhile i stopped sobbing. I decided i was even più determined now.

There had to be somthing in here! I carefully stood up, yet when i did everything felt blurry, and i instantly became dizzy, but that hadn't stopped me.

I found an old shipping gabbia, cassa and sat on it. I started to wonder if there was anyway to send a message. Anything. Even to find out where i was. I looked down, THATS IT! The shipping crate! It has to have some sort of adress on it.

I pulled out my phone and once again used it as a light. I examined the old box, I carefully flipped it on it rightside up and searched for somthing. I slid my fingers over the dust that covered the rotting wood, then i saw it; An adress.
