Chapter Three: Bella's Death

Edward backed away from the intensity of the kiss and looked at Bella, the devotion to her was engraved in his eyes. "Now, Bella, I don't want you to do anything that you will not be comfortable with." Edward stated, wanting her to know that it was her decision on what she wanted and when it would happen.

"Edward, I am so overwhelmed that you want me with you. But, truth be told, I'm worried that you will think that you have no soul if you have to change me. I want more than anything to be apart of your world, to be with you and to know what it's like to be 'FREE'... Are you sure that you want to change me? And how will I go back to school when it's done?" Questions poured out of Bella's mouth as she toyed with the idea of Edward changing her that night.

"Don't worry about the soul issue, that's what we will find out together. As for school, I can have papers that make you legal whenever you are ready to become a vampire. Are you sure that you want to give up your friends, some of them might not like the 'new' you and reject you because of it, and what about your dad and step mom? Won't Leah and Seth be angry that you left them all alone?" Edward wanted Bella to know all the ramifications of her change.

"Edward, I know what I want. I know that there will be complications from my life, but I want it more than anything else in the world." Bella replied looking him straight in the eye. "I want this tonight Edward!"

"Okay, be prepared though, there will be pain and you will be 'missing' for several days." Edward said as he leaned forward, kissed her lips softly. Standing up from the couch, he lead Bella to the bedroom and laid her softly down on the bed. Again, he softly kissed her lips before he headed for her left wrist biting into it hard. Each wrist was bit, each thigh was bit, even though the cloth of her demin jeans. And then he bit her directly over her heart. But Bella was too far gone in the pain to notice anything past the first bite.


When Bella woke up, for lack of a better phrase, she felt rejuvenated and healthier than she had ever felt before. She ran to her house, only to find that the thought of going there and she was there almost instantaneously. "Dad, Dad! Mom! Leah! Seth! Where are you guys?" She called out as she entered the doorway.

Mom was sitting at the kitchen table with her head in her hands, she was crying so softly, I didn't hear it until I got closer. "Mom, I'm home, what's wrong?" I asked, completely forgetting that Edward said that I would be 'missing' for a few days. She looked up at me as though I was a ghost.

"Bella! Oh my god! Where have you been?" Bella's step mom asked, the concern lacing her voice. "Your father is still out searching for you! How could you be so irresponsible and not tell us where you were..." That's when she noticed Bella's eyes. The bright crimson was a dead give away of where Bella had been.

"How could you? How could you Bella?" The chant came out loudly and then softly as Bella's step mom backed away. "Go, go away! Get what clothes you need and leave! LEAVE! Don't come back here! Don't talk to Leah or Seth! I swear to God! JUST GO!!!!"

Bella ran to her room grabbed a bunch of clothes and her laptop, the tears streaming down her face, ran out the door and straight into Edward's arms. "Come on Bella, we need to get you back to my place."

Oct. 31 10:45 p.m.
I can't believe it! I thought I was going to just die, but it actually worked, I can't believe that it did, I just can't. I'm actually a vampire now! I was just going along with Edward, going to see him at odd hours, anything, everything because I was so excited by him. I thought being a vampire meant that the two people had to have sex to have the "victim" rise, but it's just taking blood until there is no more after three bites, why didn't Edward tell me before? Maybe because I was too busy looking into his hypnotic eyes. I came out of the intensely horrible pain about five hours ago. I was so excited I just had to go and tell my 'rents.

But, then when I tried to go home and tell Mom and Dad that I really wasn't dead, they couldn't handle it... I just entered the house like I would do any other day.

Mom was sitting at the kitchen table with her head in her hands, she was crying so softly, I didn't hear it until I got closer. "Mom, I'm home, what's wrong?" I asked, completely forgetting that Edward said that I would be 'missing' for a few days. She looked up at me as though I was a ghost.

"Bella! Oh my god! Where have you been?" Bella's step mom asked, the concern lacing her voice. "Your father is still out searching for you! How could you be so irresponsible and not tell us where you were..." That's when she noticed Bella's eyes. The bright crimson was a dead give away of where Bella had been.

"How could you? How could you Bella?" The chant came out loudly and then softly as Bella's step mom backed away. "Go, go away! Get what clothes you need and leave! LEAVE! Don't come back here! Don't talk to Leah or Seth! I swear to God! JUST GO!!!!"

That's how it all started, even a few hours afterwards it still hurts.

My parents kicked me out! They didn't want someone dead to influence my step brother and sister into doing the same thing. They gave me a couple things to take with me. God, what a fucking drag! So here, I'm at Edward's house, sitting in the basement because it's the only place I have to go. Shit! I've got classes tomorrow I better be getting off... This is such a fucking drag, who thought parents would ever kick out their own child?


Bella looked over her entry in her personal blog. She still couldn't believe everything that had happened in the last couple of days. Edward came walking down the stairs with the Forks newspaper under his arm. "You should have made me go home! At least have left a message in my room for them." Bella said as she took the paper from him and whacked him upside his head.

"Look, Bells, I did tell you, and you even told me yes with such passion and commitment in your voice! So don't blame me and don't be angry please, because I gave you several warnings and each time you said yes." Edward stood up and walked over to the window.

He looked outside and then back at Bells. "Why do you care what your 'rents think anyways, you've been coming over here every night, sneaking out because they've been driving you crazy, you've told me thousands of times." Bells looked up from the paper, where her eyes had fallen to, to the man that she had once wanted as a boyfriend, and now he was her sire.

"I care because I still love them, Edward. You just can't stop emotions, even if they do drive you insane. Edward, will I be able to go to school tomorrow? Or will I have some limitations until the transformation is complete?" Bells asked with concern as well as resignation in her voice, at least in school she could keep busy.

Edward nodded his head, in affirmative, that she could continue on with her life. "The transformation is already complete, otherwise you wouldn't have emerged at all. Come on, Bells, let's get some 'food', I really don't want your attitude tomorrow when you get back from school because you were too hungry that you tried to eat your best friends." Edward took Bells's hand, and headed for the stairs, out into the night they went, feeding, strengthening Bella for a new day, her new beginning. Being her sire, Edward started Bella out on small animals, rabbits, foxes, and other furry creatures of the forest.

As he headed for the town, Bella called out to him to stop. "Edward, I can't feed from humans, it's not in me to do it. I mean I was a human once, and I don t want to end up hurting one of my friends, or even a stranger, because I don't want them to become a junkie." She tried to reason with him. Edward took her into his arms and kissed her bloodstained lips.

"Bella, it is in the nature of the vampire to feed off of humans, but you can do it so that there is no death. If we ever kill someone, that has not given the government any notification that they wish to die by a vampire, we are to be killed, by warrant. You must find several persons and feed off of them, only a little at a time. As it is, you have to have them cut themselves to feed you without giving them the posion from our teeth." Edward explained as he came upon an alley with a drunken man stumbling about.

Walking so softly, Edward approached the man from behind. Grabbing him with such swiftness, the man yelped. "What do you want!" The man yelled, Edward laughed.

"Come old man, you remember me. Feed my young 'childe' please?" Edward said so softly and sweetly. The man blinked and then shook his head in confirmation. Edward held out the knife to the man, and the man bent the knife to his wrist and make a swift strike against the plusing vein.

Edward bent his head into the ivory flesh of the man's wrist, and took only some of the precious life fluid that the man had to offer. "Bells, come and taste the sweetness of this one's blood. It is like a river of chocolate that intoxicates me." The words came to Bella, the voice of Edward wrapping around her like a satin sheet of tenderness. She drew near to Edward and the man, and soon found herself at the wrist of the drunk, now unconscious man, softly kissing the ashen skin, before copying Edward and sucking the tender flesh. The warm, crimson, wine-filled liquid came pouring into her sweet and young lips.

Soon, Edward pulled her away from the man, and into his arms. Still befuddled by the delicious taste of the man's damask liquid, she grabbed Edward by the neck and bite into him, only to find that his blood was not as sweet but it was powerful. Soon, they were both lost in the hypnotic power of sire and childe bonding, and only the man's coughing cleared their heads. The man was waking, and it was getting close to one o'clock in the morning.

"Come, Bella, you have school in the morning." Edward stated before heading to his brick home, and Bella soon caught up with Edward and together they went to his house; a few hours passed as Bella and Edward played chess. Soon the alarm went off, signaling the start of school, and Bella would have to face the surprise and shock that would cross every student's face as she passed. Bella buried her face into Edward's chest, wishing the day away.

Edward hit the alarm, turning it off, and tugged at Bella's long burnette curl that ran across his tanned hand. "Come on sleepyhead, it's time for you to go to school."

Bells swatted at his hand, and turned away from him. "I don't want to, I'm too caught up in our game. Besides, don't I have to have some kind of paper to go back?" She asked as the thought entered her head for the first time, not even bothering to move her head from the pillow.

Edward got up from the tangled sheets and walked to the dresser. Pulling out a drawer, he grabbed some papers and some clothes from inside. Coming back to the bed, he dropped the papers above Bells's head and started to put his clothes for the day on. Bella grabbed the papers and really looked at them, it was only then she realized that it had been the first time that she had actually spent the whole night at Edward's house.

Looking through the papers, Edward had went into the government about a week before her death and got everything legalized so that when she rose that she would be emancipated from her parents and would be considered a legal adult of the undead. She jumped out of bed and hugged Edward, "Does this mean what I think it means?"

Looking up into Edward's hazel eyes, she could see the smile in his eyes. "Yes, it does Bells."
