Chapter 1:

(Rose POV)

I love hunting. I really do. My senses are always the sharpest while hunting, always the best. There's just something about satisfying my needs that really gets me into a good mood.

I took in a deep breath, inhaling deeply at the scents that went along with nature. I smelled the aroma of fresh rain from the most recent storm. I smelled the faint scent of grass. I also smelled…wait a minute. Freesia? Human? Blood? My eyes flashed suddenly. I could tell the human was probably 17 or so. She had been hurt in some sort of accident and was bleeding profusely. I ran to find Alice. I needed to rescue this human.

"Alice." I breathed "Do you smell that?"

My sister hesitated. "Yes…freesia? Blood?" She replied slowly, standing still and concentrating. Then she froze and I knew she was having a vision.

"What do you see?" I asked breathlessly.

"I see her. Bella. You. Together. Vampires."

I gaped at Alice in surprise. Damn.

"Help."

I heard this…whisper…calling my name. It was so weak I could have almost sworn it was just the breeze of the wind passing by. But then it came again, this time just a little louder, or at least loud enough for me to know it was real.

"Help."

My body stiffened as I tried to figure out what direction the cry was coming from. I sniffed the air, and a smell caught my attention. Blood. Human blood.

I bolted for the direction in which the sound was coming from. Walking through the clearing, I saw a horrible mess of a car on the side of the road. I also saw two bodies, obviously dead because of all the blood. I saw another body which I might have even missed if I didn't have my vampire eyesight, as it was stuck underneath the car.

I ran over to the girl who was obviously struggling to stay conscious.

"Help…me…please." She whispered with all of her strength.

"Well, at least she's polite." I thought

"Don't worry, honey. I got you. You'll be okay." I said

"Legs…hurt." She murmured.

"I know baby, I know. Can you do me a favor?" I asked

She nodded.

"Keep your eyes open for me." I said. She nodded again

I got the car and lifted it off of her easily.

"Wow…strong." She commented. I smiled

"Probably just adrenaline." I replied

"Yeah…right." She said. "There's something different about you…special."

I lifted her carefully.

"Listen. I'm going to have to bring you to my house. I can carry you there, but it might hurt a little. Tell me if you are in pain at all." I said, my dead heart pounding at the thought of actually touching this angel.

"Okay. I trust you…Rosalie." She replied. I stopped.

"How did you know my name?" I demanded.

"I can see it. It fits you." She explained quietly.

"Oh sorry, I got distracted." I said, walking again.

"No problem. I've still got time in me." She replied

This poor girl was honestly so light I was worried I'd break her. But I managed. Soon we got into the forest.

"Listen. I'm going to run with you to my house. It'll be faster that way and you'll get to safety. Don't worry. Just relax." I informed her.

"What do you mean? Won't it be hard?" She asked, a little nervously.

"No, I'll be okay. And so will you. I'm special, remember?" I joked a little.

She gave a small smile. "Okay. Do your thing." She said, taking a deep breath.

I took a deep breath too, and started running. We ran and ran and ran until we got to my house.

"CARLISLE!" I yelled as loud as I could without scaring the poor girl.

Alice was already standing by the door waiting.

"Bring her inside!" She said sternly. "She's already lost too much blood. She'll bleed out!"

Bella started to shiver. I knew she was dying out quick.

"Rosalie! You'll have to do it from there. I can't get down fast enough." I heard Carlisle call. I looked down at Bella and realized he was right. She was going fast.

"Bella, what I'm going to do is going to hurt. But it's the only way you are going to live. I have to do this, because I am not going to let you die." I said quickly.

Bella gave me a weak smile. "Do it Rose…so I can…be…like you." She said

I looked at her once more. Then I tucked her beautiful brunette hair behind her ear. I bent down and whispered "I love you." Then, before I could think about it too much, I bit her.

As soon as my mouth felt the first sensation of her blood, I knew. I knew this human-soon-to-be- vampire was the one I had been waiting for all the years of my existence. I knew her; she knew me. She trusted me to bite her. I couldn't loose control.

My venom mixing with her blood, I felt immensely satisfied. I could have kept going, but I knew that if I did, I would kill her. Instead, I stopped right on time.

Bella's heart began to beat slower and slower. Finally, it stopped. The silence was deadly- I hated the fact that my love was no longer with us. I knew she would be back, but her absence was hard.

I got up slowly, not sure what to do with myself.

I saw as Bella's transformation began. She started trembling and I knew that the fire was going to come soon.

"ROSALIE! HELP! PLEASE! GET THE FIRE OUT, IT'S BURNING!" I heard Bella shriek in her unconscious state. She groaned in pain. I shivered, knowing my angel was hurting.

I knelt back down next to her, stroking her cheek and holding her hand.

"Bella, honey, its okay, don't worry its okay." I murmured.

Alice shot me a look of sympathy. Carlisle stood by watching.

Bella's face tightened in pain. She moaned.

Her transformation went on for three days, as usual for a vampire. I stayed with her for the entire time. Late in the evening on the third day, she woke up.

I took in a breath. She was beautiful. Bella- which meant beautiful in many languages- fit her well. Her features were striking, mesmerizing- perfect.

I sighed with relief when she opened her eyes and saw for the first time.

(Bella POV)

My kidnappers were arguing again. I sighed and looked out the window, used to this whole ordeal. As usual, Thomas, the man, my "father", was lost. And as usual, the woman, Louise, my "mother" was getting very ill-tempered as she tried to correct him, and impossible feat with such a stubborn man.

All of a sudden, I felt a jolt. Before I knew it, our car started rolling. We rolled and rolled and rolled down this ditch. My kidnappers, who were screaming, stopped. The car finished its downward spiral and it was silent.

I knew I was extremely hurt. My legs were in major pain and I could smell smoke. I knew I had to get out of there fast, as I would be trapped under the car as it exploded.

I struggled to escape. I pulled with my arms, trying to drag myself out from under the car. My legs were in a lot of pain and I knew I could possibly be in danger of loosing them, if I moved them the wrong way.

"Help" I said, hoping that some how someone could hear me. I was not hopeful.

All of a sudden, I heard the faint sound of someone…running. I knew it would probably be my only chance of rescue.

"Help." I whispered again lightly, trying not to drain my energy by yelling.

After a few minutes, I could hear the runner…runners…getting closer. Suddenly, they emerged from the forest. My heart almost stopped right then when I saw one of my rescuers.

She was a girl who was a beauty. She had very strong features, golden-blond hair that I immediately wanted to stroke, and sharp golden eyes. Wait. Golden? Oh well. As soon as I saw her, I felt like I knew everything about her. I even knew her name. Rosalie. Wait, what? Huh. Must be a gift that comes with dying.

She sprinted over to me and I could feel her breathe lightly on my face. It felt as soft as the wind, and smelled like roses.

"Help…me…please." I whispered with all of my strength, which I could feel quickly draining with each breath I took, each word I spoke.

"Don't worry, honey. I got you. You'll be okay." She said, trying to reassure me but I knew things were bad.

"Legs…hurt." I said slowly, as the pain in my legs was sharp, shooting through to my feet.

"I know baby, I know. Can you do me a favor?" She asked softly.

I nodded, wanting to do anything for this girl.

"Keep your eyes open for me." She said. I nodded again.

She grasped the car and easily removed it off of me. I was shocked, and probably would have gasped if I had the energy to. But my eyes widened and she could see my surprise.

"Wow…strong" I commented weakly.

"Probably just adrenaline." She said, smiling lightly.

"Yeah…right." I replied, still not quite believing it. There was something special about this girl. I could sense it…I could… feel it. "There's something different about you…special." I murmured.

She smiled again, not saying anything, and lifted me carefully.

"Listen. I'm going to have to bring you to my house. I can carry you there, but it might hurt a little. Tell me if you are in pain at all." She said. I winced, but nodded in understanding. It had to be done.

"Okay. I trust you…Rosalie." I replied. She stopped.

"How do you know my name?" She demanded, but not harshly. Only curiously.

"I can see it. It fits you." I said.

She looked interested in my comment, but then realized she had stopped walking.

"Oh, sorry. Your question distracted me for a second." She said.

"No problem. I've still got time in me." I replied, even though we both knew that was not true at the moment.

She smiled a little to lighten the atmosphere a bit. She headed for the forest with Alice walking behind us, on the phone with someone. When she carried me, I felt almost like she thought I was a porcelain doll or something, which was nice because of the state I was in. However, if it had been in a normal circumstance, I would have been somewhat annoyed by the gentleness because contrary to what she believes, I'm actually pretty strong.

"Listen. I'm going to run with you to my house. It'll be faster that way and you'll get to safety. Don't worry. Just relax." She informed me.

"What do you mean? Won't it be hard?" I asked nervously.

"No, I'll be okay. And so will you. I'm special, remember?" She replied, joking a little.

I decided to trust her on that one, so I gave her a small smile. "Okay, do your thing." I permitted.

"You might want to close your eyes. You might get dizzy when I run." She instructed me.

I gave her a grateful look, even thought I had yet to know what was ahead of me. I figured she was probably right.

She took a deep breath too, and started running. We ran and ran and ran until we got to her house.

"CARLISLE!" Rose yelled. I winced a little, sensitive to the yell.

The girl who was with us before was already standing by the door. "Bring her inside!" She said sternly. "She's already lost too much blood. She'll bleed out!"

I could feel myself getting weaker and weaker. I knew this was it. This was the end. "What a sucky way to end" I thought. "I just found the love of my life and I can't even get the chance to enjoy her properly." I could feel my eyes drooping, my heart pumping slower.

"Rose, you'll have to do it, I won't get there in time." I heard a distant voice call.

"Bella, what I'm going to do is going to hurt. But it's the only way you are going to live. I have to do this, because I am not going to let you die." Rose said determinedly.

I gave her the best smile I could under the circumstances.

. "Do it Rose…so I can…be…like you." I said, knowing know what she was.

Rosalie looked at me once more. Then she tucked my hair behind my ears. I could feel my heart slowing down. Rosalie bent down and I could here her whisper "I love you." The last thing I remember hearing before my eyes finally closed. That's when I felt her bite me.

I was in a different world. I was somewhere, I was everywhere, and I was nowhere. I know that does not really make much sense, but it was how I felt.

I gasped when I felt the fire start to burn me. Somehow, I could feel my body spasm and begin to shake. It was like I was conscious but unconscious somehow. I knew I started screaming because it was what I was thinking. Loudly.

"ROSALIE! HELP! PLEASE! GET THE FIRE OUT, IT'S BURNING!" I could feel myself scream. Darkness surrounded me. My heart beat faster and faster and faster until I felt it die out completely.

Death.

I had never really thought much about death. I had no religion so I was not sure about the whole God concept. I just knew that for the moment, I was dead where no one could save me.

I winced as my body stopped shaking and moaned. I was out of it. But I could almost…feel it. The transformation. Because after what felt like years, I knew it was time for me to wake up. But when I did wake, I knew exactly what kind of a creature I was. Vampire.
