-Lissa p.o.v-

"I'm never going to manage it!" I groaned to Adrian. We were trying to dream walk. Well, I was trying. Adrian was patiently teaching me. I reached over to get my glass of wine and felt a searing pain on my neck. I gasped and touched my neck to see if it was burning.

"Princess?" Dimitri immediately noticed my discomfort. My neck wasn't burning. I waited for it to fade but it didn't. It got worse.

"Is my neck burning?" I asked him. He slowly shook his head. The pain grew and grew. Then it got too much. I screamed and realized what was happening. It wasn't me in pain. It was Rose. "Rose." I whispered, tears trickling down my face. "She's dying. She feels like she is on fire!" I nearly started screaming. Dimitri and Adrian turned to me. Both men had pain written on their faces. They both love Rose. We all do. Rose and I screamed again. Linked as sisters, bondmates, best friends. Then the bond was gone. No trace of it. Rose was dead. Or so I thought.

- Edward p.o.v-

My family and I were hunting. Rosalie and Alice chatting about some random fashion show when suddenly, Alice's face went blank. "No. No. Save her! Rose don't give up!" I saw what she saw. There was a girl, around eighteen, lying on the floor covered in blood. She was nearly dead. she was screaming and then the vision ended. Alice's eyes flickered to us. "Edward… go, Carlisle… Forks, go save her! Near the warehouse." she beckoned. We ran to Forks, abandoning our hunt. We didn't ask any questions. Alice knew what she was talking about I filled Carlisle in on what happened. We reached the warehouse, the smell of blood lingering in the air. The girl was there on the floor her thoughts faint as if fading, she thought of those she loved, she was in so much pain and not just from the physical injuries, her heart ached. I feared we would be to late.

"Carlisle." I beckoned urgently. "Carlisle, there's blood everywhere." please don't be too late, this girl was dying. Her eyes looked weakly at me.

"Edward, we have no choice." Carlisle replied back. "We have to turn her if she is to live." the girls thought went panicky. Thinking we were strigoi. What were they?

"Who are you?" She whispered. Pain evident in her voice.

"I'm Carlisle Cullen. I'm what you would call a vampire." she looked shocked, but not the kind we thought. "Who are you child?"

"I'm R-Rose Hathaway. I'm dhampir." what? I could hear her thoughts, they explained what she was. That didn't make sense.

"What?" I murmured beside her. "We are not the strigoi. We are a clan. We drink animal blood. We can protect you Rose. In order to turn though we will have to bite you and it's going to hurt. Do you want this life Rose?" Her pain was getting to her, she thought of Dimitri and I could feel her heart break again. I held her hand if to ease her pain, she could only nod and I leaned down and bit her neck before the light faded from her eyes.

- Rose p.o.v-

I woke up. Wow! My vision was so clear. I sat up as quick as lightning. What happened?! Then the memories of last night came flittering back. How Edward had saved me and turned me into a…

"Vampire." There he was. His face concerned he had Carlisle and another woman with him. I could hear movement downstairs though. How could he know what I was thinking?

"I can read thoughts." he told me. "A… gift I suppose, you could call it. When I changed I could hear thoughts. Alice can see the future." he indicated towards the pixie woman. Who beamed at me, her teeth casting rainbows in the sun.

"Hello Rose." she said completely normal as if she knew me forever.

"Hello?" my voice like chimes.

"This is Carlisle, he was there last night." Edward spoke again. The blonde man looked distinctly familiar. Yes. He was there … two nights ago? "Three nights." Edward smiled at me. I smiled weakly back, it felt fake. Alice came up and hugged me.

"It's ok Rose, you will adjust to it all." she reassured me. Gesturing to the mirror I saw my reflection and gasped. My skin was still tanned which seemed to have confused Edward. My physical appearance was pretty much the same except that I was as tall and thin as a Moroi but with my curves still there. My brown hair flowing to my waist. The only shocking feature was my eyes. They were blood red. I stiffened. They weren't ringed red like a strigoi, no they were completely red apart from the pupils. I turned to Edward.

"You say I'm a vampire?" I asked them.

"Yes, by were turned by the venom we have. Edward explained about the Moroi and dhampirs and the strigoi to us. We are different. We drink blood but we, my family, drink animal blood. You don't have to be afraid Rose." Carlisle spoke softly. I couldn't help but think of Lissa. Of Dimitri. They caused so much pain. My heart throbbed. A tear trickled down my cheek. Alice squeezed my hand.

"Come, Rose, meet the others." she told me gently. I followed her out the room to what seemed like a huge lounge room. "This is Esme, Rosalie, Emmet, Jasper, Bella, Jacob, Renesmee. Guys this is Rose Hathaway." I gave a small smile. "Rose. Tell them." I looked into Alice's eyes and She gave me a message through them. Tell us Rose, we can help. We will help. I took a deep breath.

"My name, as you know, is Rose Hathaway. I am a dhampir. Half vampire, half human." I explained about the Moroi and strigoi and the dhampirs. "My mother was Janine Hathaway, a dhampir like me. Who left me at St Vladmirs academy when I was four years old. I was a guardian about to be assigned to my best friend, Lissa. Lissa was the Dragomir princess, Moroi royalty. She specializes in spirit the rarest element. We were bonded. She brought me back to life after a car crash. When we were at st Vladmirs, the school we attended, I could sense someone stalking Lissa. So we ran away. We were brought back however, two years later, by Dimitri Belikov. He became my mentor and we fell in love. One night, Lissa was kidnapped and Victor Dashkov tortured her to heal her from his disease. We saved Lissa and that was when we found out about her having spirit. Dimitri and I had to keep our distance from each other because we were both going to be Lissa's guardian. A few months later me and some friends were kidnapped by strigoi and my friend mason died. After that I could see ghosts as a effect of being shadow kissed. He warned me about a strigoi attack. In the attack we lost many. But I lost Dimitri. He had turned strigoi and I dropped out to save him. I found out how and Lissa stabbed him with a stake charmed with spirit. He was restored back to a dhampir. But- But." the painful memories came back. Edward hissed. "He told me he didn't love me. Love fades, mine has. Were his exact words. So I ran away. I was attacked when I came here by strigoi. They beat me up and tortured me." I broke down. I thought of all the painful memories. They winced.

"what did you just do?" Alice whispered. I gave her a confused look. "we could see it. All of that night." I thought back to it. Bella cringed.

"Rose. You have a gift." Carlisle said quietly. Everyone was still looking at me still shocked from the memory. I thought of the time when Lissa and I ran away. The time when we were in a park on the swings. It was a bittersweet memory, free of any nightmare. Edward smiled sadly at me, knowing my thoughts of that memory.

"telekinesis." Edward whispered. I thought to the time when I last saw Dimitri in the church. Alice took my hand, Esme gave me a hug. I sobbed. My heart breaking over and over again.

"Let me talk to her." Bella murmured to them. She met my eyes and took my other hand. I followed her to a Forrest just outside of Forks. Edward looked pained as we walked away. She stopped at the trail. "I know how you feel Rose." she turned to face me. Eyes full of old pain. "This was the place where Edward left me a year ago. He told me he didn't love me and that he was moving and that I would never see him again. Can I show you?" I nodded. She took my hand. I could read her memories as she touched me. I was in Bella's mind. When Edward left her. How she tried to follow him. How she got on the motorcycle, and jumped of a cliff. The trip to Volterra and how she saved Edward. Her gold eyes returned back to me and I broke down. I told her everything. Someone I hadn't dared tell anyone. Bella comforted me as she understood my pain. We returned to the house and the family welcomed me as if I was already part of their family. I turned to Jacob.

"So are you, like a dog?" I smirked at him.

"Don't push it, Rosie." he play filled growled.

"Don't call me Rosie, Jakey poo" I patted his cheek. Everyone laughed. And I smiled. It was time to move on. I could find peace here.
