Carlisle's POV:

Oh my god. I was speechless. Here was Emmett, big, muscular, and downright intimidating, cooing to a little puppy in his hands. Poor dog. Apparently Emmett had accidently steppd on it.

Why didn't he just put the poor dog out of its misery. Well, I knew the answer to that. He wanted me to change it. But we didn't know how the animal's blood would react to the venom.

It might kill the poor thing. Or the dog could also go wild, just like the immortal children, so I told him no. He walked off in huff into his room. He is by far the weirdest member of my family.

God, he wanted a dog for goodness sakes. I mean, haven't vampires and werewolves been fighting for years, and yet here was Emmett, holding a dog, wanting it to be his pet. His

vampire dog, vampdog, as he put it. I mean, it was near death. He couldn't keep the thing alive, so he wanted to change it. What an idiot! Does he want the Volturi to come and kick his

vampire ass?

The dog was shaking, obviously scared to death. It was a golden retriever, wuite a pretty dog and I did hate to see it die, so.... NO! I can't cange this stupid, adorable, sweet.. Oh my

god. I guess we can try. I mean, at worst, we can catch it and kill it if it turns out to be a problem. I opened the door to see Emmett, dog in his hands. His teeth were over the dog's neck,

biting it. When he saw me walk into the room, he quickly, yet slightly unwilingly pulled away from it. Poor dog. it was whimpering, obviously in pain. he venom was already pulsing through

his system. Emmett had an embarrased look on his face, like he had been got in a grand theft. What an idiot. But I guess it saves me from having to do it. "EMMETT!" I yelled at him and

he sprinted for the door, but I caught him by the collar of his shirt. "Although you should have waited, I've decided to try it." I said from between my clenched teeth. "But if it doesn't work

out, we're killing that dog!" I finished. Emmet's face was so relieved and happy. He pulled me into a bone crushing hug. "Thank you! Thank you! Tank you, Daddy!" He said it like he was a

five year old that just recieved the Christmas present of his dreams. "Ya, your welcome." I answered, finally warming up to the subject. I turned my attention to the changing dog. He was

writhing, his legs kicking in eavery direction. And that noise! It was so annoying! I love animals, I really do, but a vampdog? I just don't see it happening. It probably won't listen and we'll

have to kill it, but at least I know we would have tried. I looked over it. It appeared that it's body was accepting the change, just like a human's. I could also tell that it was a very painful

tranformation, just like a human's. I cringed at the memory of my transformation. All alone, not even able to cry out. Emmett was bouncing up and down with joy. He looked a lot like Alice

right before she goes on a shopping spree.

"I've gotta go tell Rose!" He blurted, excitement melting from his voice. I turned all of my attention towards the dog on Emmett's couch, writhing in pain. It growled at me. Stupid dog, I

thought, then began to work.

Rosalie's POV:

"Oh My GOD! Emmett, you didnt!" I yelled, horrified at what he had just told me. Why? Why me? Why did I have to marry the idiot of this family. He pouted, obviously dissapointed with

my reaction.

"You know I wanted a puppy, Rose," he murmured, barely audible to even my super vampire ears.

"Well, then why didn't you just get a damn puppy?!?" I yelled back at him. Seriously, he didn't have to make a "vampdog" just so that he could get a pet. He could just get a normal

freakin dog! He looked pitiful, but I didn't care! He could just keep on being pitiful! I mean, what an idiot! He has to know that we're probably just going to end up killing that... that thing

anyway! It would probably try to kill every human in the area, for god's sake!

He put on his upset little boy face, the one I can't resist, and answered. "It would run away, Rosie." he whispered, so sad. Poor Emmett. I mean a vampire puppy couldn't be that bad,

could it. I knew the answer to that. Yes, yes, it could. "Fine, Emmett." I whispered, finally giving in. His face lit up with excitement, and he was literally bouncing off the walls. He began

talking at a pace that even I couldn't keep up with. "Oh, Rose, we're gonna have so much fun!" I drowned out most of the rest, but I did hear "frisbees" and "teahcing him tricks." Ya

right! Like that possesed mongrel would stop wreaking havoc and listen for even a second. Wait. I guess I'm not sure that it'll turn out that way. I mean, maybe it won't even drink blood.

Ya. And maybe the Easter Bunny really hopped around to the whole world in one night. Uhuh. Emmett was still going on and on about all the things we were going to do with VamFido,

which is apparently what he named the dog. What a stupid name. We decided to go downstairs and tell the others, though Alice and Edward probably already told everyone. Alice met us

at the bottom of the stairs, popping out of nowhere. "Ohmigod, Emmett!" she squealed, "I've always wanted a puppy!" Of course, two idiots of the family. Everyone else was already

gathered in the entryroom, talking amongst themselves. Edward was the only one that seemed not happy. He had a huge crease on his forehead, deeply in though. Worrying about Bella,

most likely. I walked down the rest of the stairs, but Emmett stayed where he was. He turned to us and straightened up into a regal- looking stance. "Vampires and Pixies," he began

motioning to Alice on the word 'pixies.' I wonder if he really thought she was a pixie. It may sound like I'm kidding, but trust me, I'm not. He continued,"As I'm sure you all have heard, we

are adopting a new member into our family. His name is VampFido." I could clearly see that everyone wqas fighting a smile at his name. Seriously though, it was kind of funny, even if it

was really stupid. Everyone but me and Edward began cheering, ecstatic about our new member. Now me and Edward are the only sane ones left. Of course. I heard their muted chatter.

"Are you sure about VampFido?" I heard Alice begin, "I mean, why can't we name it something with meaning, something like... AH! I know! What about Eadric?" All of the boys burst out

laughing, but I kinda liked that name. Alice gave Jasper a death glare, and he straightened up. "Ummm.. Maybe something a little more.... like a name for a boy dog? N offense, dear."

She glared at him. Emmett was still on the floor laughing. "Don't.. name.. him.. Eadric... unless.. you want.. him to... get.. beaten up... at... dog park!" He blurted out between laughs. Alice

huffed and crossed her arms over her chest. Edward was the next to speak up. "What about... Rascall?" he offered. I thought aboutit. It really did kinda have a nice ring to it. Rascall..

Hmmm.. I liked it. "You know, I don't know about you guys, but I like it." Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Me, too!" Alice yelled. "Me three!" Jasper finished. Emmett was sitting on the stairs with a frown on his face. "What about you, Em?" I asked him.

"It's ok," he mumbled. I heard he murmer, "like VampFido better, though." Ok, apparently the freak dog's name was going to be Rascall.

"Ok, so if everyone's in agreement," I started. Everyone but Emmett nodded. Whatever, I just ignored him. He was going to call the dog VampFido, anyway. I could tell. "Then it's name

shall be Rascall," I finished off. Everyone cheered for the vampdog's name.
