DISCOVERING EDWARD

EPOV

I looked down to Bella, and couldn't fight back my emotions this time. I let her drop gently onto the ground; and tried to keep myself in check. Holding the bridge of my nose between my forefinger and thumb, I paced around the room.

I knew that this was going to happen today; and I had spent months preparing for it. So why wasn't I ready then? "Edward", I heard her voice whisper, "Are you okay".

My hands started shaking and my anger surprised me. I wasn't angry at her, but angry none the less. "Isabella", I said her name slowly- letting the sweet sound of it roll of my tongue, "I will never be okay about this". Hurt crossed her fragile face. How could she not understand that I just couldn't take her should away from her?

Bella was so full of life. Always smiling, blushing, laughing. I couldn't stand that fact that she was willing to give all of that away for me. I took a few un-needed breathes to calm myself, and went to pick up Bella again- even more afraid to damage her. She said that she doesn't always want to be Lois lane; but she has been superman. She saved me from myself.

I walked upstairs slowly, for once not wanting to see the huge bed that waited in my room. Bella surprised me when she suddenly spoke up. "Edward, I know you don't like the idea of this. But why can't you understand that I want to spend forever with you. You always say how you were damned to this life, but I would love to live your life if I was living it with you. Think about it, an eternity together. We've made it this far Edward, I know you can do this". She pleaded for me to understand her.

Six other forms were around me now, waiting for the upcoming event. I growled lowly in my chest. They were all anticipating it, they all wanted the same thing that she wanted; with the exception of Rosalie. I layed Bella gently on the bed, and brought my razor sharp teeth close to the thin skin of her neck. "I love you", I managed to whisper before letting myself bite her.

None of us were prepared for what happened next, not even me. As soon as Edward's teeth came into contact with Bella's skin he was thrown onto the ground, pulling Bella with him. They started to scream in unison, and I held onto Jasper even tighter. Was it possible for Edward to be this empathetic, to feel so much pain.

I looked frantically from Carlisle to Esme. Shock was written across their faces, giving away that they had never seen something like this before. "Carlisle", I called over the screaming, "What's happening?"

He looked at me with apologetic eyes. "I don't know!" I tried to stay calm, but with no avail. Even Jasper could barely help. Emmet and Rosalie just stared at the scene in front of them, not believing what was happening.

It was strange the way Edward and Bella seemed to be moving at the exact same time. Twisting, jerking, and screaming in unison- like they really were one person. If I could cry, tears would be streaming down my face. I wanted to try and snap Edward out of this, but something in the back of my mind told me not to.

As soon as Bella's blood came into contact with my skin I felt myself being thrown back wards. I also felt something else; something I hadn't felt in almost one hundred years- physical pain.

I was worse than I last remembered. Hundreds of knives were stabbing through my body, and ice spread through my veins. Even worse than the transformation I had undergone less than a century ago.

My body jerked, and I was faintly aware of a scream that sounded remarkably like my voice; though it came from a thousand miles away. In fact, everything was sounding far away- as if I was being pulled out of the world.

Everything was white for miles around. A mirror was in front of me, and my reflection startled me. My bronze hair was the same, untidy as ever; but then rest of my was different. My pale skin had color to it, actual color. The shape of my face had changed, and wasn't inhumanely beautiful. Most startling were the bright green eyes that stared back at me. It took me a while to figure out what I was staring at...

My old, human self.

My reflected hand touched the mirror, even though I hadn't moved my hand. The fingers motioned me to come closer, and I reached out to touch the mirror. The glass disappeared under my fingers, and my surroundings changed. The reflection of myself looked to wards me, and whispered something that I barely heard. "It's up to you now". There were so many questions that I had for myself, but he was gone in the blink of an eye.

I looked up to try and figure out where I was- Chicago. I was back in the days of my human memories. Not much was familiar, but a few things stood out to me.

There was a swing set in a park nearby. The seat was empty, and looked as if it had been for a long time. I quickly grabbed my right arm, the memory coming back to me. I was swinging, trying to go as high as I could. But I lost my grip, and went flying in the air. I remembered landing hard on my arm, feeling the bone break beneath my weight.

I kept walking down the sidewalk, things coming into my mind. I saw Andrew's house, one of my old friends. He has the best backyard for playing in, and we were always getting in trouble together. How could I sudently remember all of this?

My pace quickened as I walked, I kept wanting to see more and more. There was something though that made me stop dead in my tracks. The old, tall hospital stood waiting in the distance. Memories came back, but they weren't so pleasant this time. Screams of dying patients, doctors running frantically around, the look on my mothers face as she found out I was sick.

I forced myself to go through the doors, letting the screams fill my head. I wasn't hearing voices this time though. The empty beds were rusting and dusty, not have been in use for quite some time. I found the room where Andrew died, and where my mother died. Last of all, I visited the place where I almost died.

Now I could remember the feel of cold hands as they stole me away from the hospital. The piercing teeth on my neck, and the fire that spread through my veins. As I thought about this more, I made myself pull back. I wanted to hold onto the last bit of humanity.

This time I did hear the scream escape my lips. I could feel the memories slipping away, and I reached out for them. Finding the memories would mean finding myself, and finding my human self again.
