A/N: HELLO! Thank you for taking time to read this. Set a year or so after Breaking Dawn.
Alice's POV
I was visiting patients at the hospital today. I know it's not something a normal vampire does, but Carlisle worked here, and I wanted to help cheer the children up. Jasper couldn't come on the count of blood, so I came alone. I had already visited a boy with a broken leg, a girl with a diabetic problem, a girl with a shattered foot; none of these life-threatening. I didn't think I would see anyone really critical, then I got to the next room.
A girl with brown hair sat in the bed, she was pretty, but young. "Hi, I'm Alice, I have been reading to the others. Would you like to visit with me?" I asked, she raised her head, she looked pathetic.
"Yes." she said, her voice was weak.
"What's your name?" I asked standing at the end of her bed.
"Dannielle." she said, I could see she was struggling.
"How old are you?" I asked smiling, she was looking at her hands.
"Four-teen." she said.
"What do you like to do for a hobby?" I asked, trying to start a conversation.
"I don't have any, I've never been outside the hospital." she said, I was shocked. Carlisle walked in, and saw me.
"Alice, I see you've met Danielle, but I need to speak to you now." he said, I followed him out telling the girl I'd be back.
"You cannot get attatched to her, I know how you are." he said.
"Why, what's wrong with her?" I asked, he sighed.
"She has a hole in her heart." he said, that poor girl.
"She never has been outside?" I asked, he shook his head.
"She don't have parents either, her parents left her at the hospital. The state pays for her treatment." he explained.
"Will she get better?" I asked hopefully, he shook his head.
"She doesn't have long now." he said, I hung my head. "She has mere hours." he continued.
"I'm going to make her last hours worth it." I said walking in her room, Carlisle couldn't stop me.
"Hey Dannielle, I'm back." I said as I sat down in a chair next to her bed. "Hi." she whispered.
She was really a nice girl, I had talked to her for hours, it was midnight, she claimed she didn't want to go to sleep; she wasn't tired. "Dannielle, you need to sleep, get some rest." I said, she shook her head. "I don't want to sleep." she said sadly.
"Why?" I asked, she looked down.
"I'm afraid I won't wake up." she whispered tearfully.
"Dannielle, don't worry." I said kindly.
"Please don't treat me like I'm a little kid, I know I'm dieing." she said ruefully. "Alice, you're my only friend, I know you'll stay with me, but I'm dieing, and I'm not worth crying over." she said, her words touched me, I wanted to tell her she was worth crying over, but I said,
"Sweety, I'm sorry, I really wish I could help." Then it clicked, I could bite her. "I'll be right back." I said, and ran to get Carlisle. I found him in his office working late. "Carlisle, help." I said, he looked at me. "Carlisle you have to bite Dannielle." I said, he shook his head. "Alice, I told you." he said.
"I don't care, I have to save her!" I yelled, I knew if I could cry I would be sobbing to no end. "You do it, show me you can do it." he said. "Carlisle, I won't be able to stop." I said.
"Edward found the will in the ballet studio with Bella, now it's your turn." he said.
"I have to get her out of the hospital." I said, he nodded. "I'll tell the nurses she died, and that I took her to the morge." Carlisle said, I ran out of the room, Dannielle's seconds were limited.
"Dannielle, I can make this go away." I said as I undid her IV. "What?" she asked more weakly than before. She was going to be gone in no time. I picked her up and ran into the woods. I laid her down on the ground. I bit her.
I realized she would still not be alive. But wasn't it the right thing to do? She screamed and moaned. I picked up her thrashing body and ran home. I burst through the door, Jasper was standing there.
"Alice?" he asked, the family was there immediatley hearing her screams. "I had to save her." I said sitting her on the couch after I pushed my way past Edward and Rosalie. Nessie tilted her head at Dannielle. "Is she okay?" she asked.
"Yes, baby she'll be okay." Bella said.
"What's wrong with her?" Nessie asked.
"She's becoming like us." Rosalie said from behind me.
"Oh, a new family member?" Nessie asked I nodded.
I explained to Dannielle what she was becoming, she seemed to undewrestand. Three days had passed.
Dannielle sat up. "Good morning." I said, she smiled.
"Good morning." she said, she was beautiful. Her hair was longer and browner, more healthy, she was paler.
She seemed very much alive now. I knew I had helped her, she wasn't trapped anymore.
She could run outside, see the sun. I had set her free, with a price of becoming a monster, but she was now my responsibility. I would watch her closely now, and be her friend and sister, as she learned the ropes.
I had made Dannielle inhumanly strong, and she would never suffer again, she would finally live a real life. I remember in the hospital I was married when she asked me about my ring, she told me she had never been on a date; now she could.
I may have turned her into a monster, I may have killed her; but I feel I created a life for someone that is special in everyway.
A/N: That story was very different from what I usually write since I do humor. Please review and tell me if you liked it, and if I should do more stories like this or maybe a sequel, or if I should just stop writing. Thanks
