Reviews are appreciated! xoxo

Edward and Rosalie stayed home from school during the days of his transformation and Carlisle from the hospital. Edward hardly left the piano and Rosalie split her time reading and blankly watching the man still in visible agony. She had sized him up. He was very strong, young, and once all the blood had been cleaned up somewhat attractive.

Another day had passed. She had finished three novels and was leaning in the doorway to the room where the man was. She could see that the changes had started. His gaping wounds were healed, his scars disappeared, his skin began to whiten, and any imperfections he had before were quickly disappearing.

Esme came into check on him. She placed a cool washrag over his eyes, trying to console him from the pain. She was much more maternal than Rose. Esme, who had lost a child in her former human life, was content with taking her adoptive children under her care, such was her compassionate nature. Rosalie had shut down every maternal instinct in her body mainly to avoid the pain that she would never have a child. She was frozen in her nineteen year old body forever, however she was frozen to perfection.

"Honey, why don't you sit with him for a bit," Esme softly asked of her daughter. Rosalie came closer but never as close enough. She just watched from the doorway as she did everyday, never getting closer. Still Esme was patient, she knew Rose would eventually come around. She had saved him after all.

By the fourth day of his transformation the entire family gathered in the room.

"He should awaken soon," Carlisle said. It was hard to believe, but his muscles had gotten even larger through his transformation. Carlisle had seen enough transformations to know the signs of re-birth as they called it.

"He is gonna be a strong one," Edward spoke.

It was only a few hours later when the man eyes opened revealing the blood red eyes of a newborn.

The man sat up from the table and just looked confused.

"Hello, my name is Carlisle and this is my family. What is your name?"

The man continue to look from Cullen to Cullen, "Um, my name is Emmett."

"Ok Emmett, do you remember what happened," Carlisle gently questioned trying not to cause him alarm. Emmett thought back, "I fought a bear, and I lost." Rosalie let out a short laugh and immediately caught herself regaining her composure. Emmett's eyes were on her.

"That's right, my daughter carried you here and we helped you," Carlisle continued to explain gesturing to Rosalie.

"She couldn't carry me" Emmett exclaimed a little comically. Rosalie, however, was not amused.

"I am stronger thank I look," she stated with her same cold stare.

"Carlisle, he's thirsty," Edward said reading Emmett's mind. Emmett looked from Edward to Carlisle.

"Right, we should hunt, Edward will you join us," Carlisle asked. Edward nodded and they took Emmett to the forests edge.

"Now Emmett, in order to make you better, we had to make you different," Carlisle started as Emmett just looked on confused. He continued, "you will be faster, you will be even stronger, and you will not age. In return you will need to live on, well to be frank, blood." Emmett still was not grasping what was going on but there was a burning in his throat that would not cease.

Carlisle and Edward looked at each other and began to run. Emmett caught on and joined them, soon realizing he was running faster than he ever had in his life, actually after than anything he had ever seen.

"Stop," Edward commanded and all three men stopped dead in their tracks.

"Close your eyes," Edward coached and Emmett followed, "what do you hear, what do you smell?" Emmett took a moment. He could hear everything and smell everything, it was all so overwhelming.

"Let your instincts take over," Carlisle offered.

Emmett turned his head and his eyes shot open. "There, that way deer," Emmet confidently spoke.

A grin spread over his face and Emmett took off running. When they got to the place that he had smelled the deer he came to an abrupt halt.

"Watch Edward," Carlisle suggested as Edward went in for the first kill. He got his arms around the neck of the deer and with one snap he sunk is teeth into the animals.

"See how he…" Carlisle had started to explain but Emmett had already leapt into action with surprisingly perfect form. He fed and took down another deer who had began to run away but was no match for Emmett's enhanced speed.

"Haaa," Emmett let out a mix between a laugh and a growl. He loved this.

"Well, I guess Rosalie knows how to pick them," Carlisle joked.

"Rosalie, was that the blonde," Emmet questioned.

"Yes, she is my adopted daughter, and the other woman is my wife Esme," Carlisle began to explain.

"Yes I am Edward," Edward interjected, "and I should probably just tell you now, I can um, hear your thoughts. It's a special ability."

"So Carlisle, Edward, Esme, and Rosalie… Do we all have special abilities," Emmett questioned poking a bit of fun at Edward.

"No, Edward is the only one in our family, although we consider Rosalie to be, well, especially blessed as a vampire," Carlisle explained.

"So thats what I am now… A vampire?" Emmett was unsure.

Carlisle let out an exhale, even though he didn't need to breathe, force of habit he guessed.

"Yes," he started, "we are all vampires, but my family has chosen to live off of animal blood rather than well, human blood. We do not wish to be our darkest selfs and show respect for all life, both human and vampire."

Carlisle could tell he was losing Emmett.

"You are welcome to live with us, and try our lifestyle if you would like," Carlisle continued.

"Um, sure," was all Emmett could reply.

"Carlisle I think we should hunt one more time, I picked up a mountain lion," Edward suggested.

"Right, we should," Carlisle agreed and the three of them took of running. Emmett was a natural, he caught the scent and began to take the lead, but Edward was faster than he was. They spotted the animal.

Emmett gave a flash of a smile to Edward as he jumped to take the animal dead on. He wrestled with the enormous cat. It was clear Emmett was not interested in the quick kill, he wanted some sport. Finally he hd wrestled it to it's back and with his massive arms snapped the neck and sunk in. Again Emmett let out a shout of joy and accomplishment after feeding.

"Woah," he exclaimed, "that feels amazing," Emmett was liking his first experience as a vampire. He had always loved hunting, but now that it was him against an animal, that they were even with him having no extra weapons he liked it even more.

"That should be enough for now," Carlisle interrupted, "let's go back to the house to formally introduce you."
