Alright, this is gunna be a kind of long authors note, sorry! but there were a few things I wanted to address, first off, thanks to everyone for the positive comments, I feel kinda dumb saying so, but they really made me feel much better. Makes me happy to know that people I don't even know took a few seconds out of their day to send me PM's and emails saying they hoped I was feeling better. Thanks all, love you guys!

And i've also decided to make a companion story to this from Edwards point of view. Some people were kind of confused as to some of the characters motives, and I reread my story and realized it was a lot easier to understand for me because I knew their motives in my head. That will probably be later on, though. Or maybe soon. Bah, who knows.

So, here's chapter six! ( I, personally, am rather disappointed in this chapter... ) There were a few people who pointed out different reasons for why Renee should or shouldn't get bitten, and i've already thought about all of them. Not only that, but I never actually said she WAS going to get bitten . But really, I hate stories that don't really make sense, and I swear either way I go with this, all of the problems such as the whole stuck in a coma thing (which WingedSpirit first suggested to me, and by the way thank you for that; I hadn't even thought of that.), the treaty, EVERYTHING have been thought out and considered. Right now I have basically two different stories written that go different paths with this, i'm just debating which way to go. Right now, even i'm not sure if she'll get bitten. xD Also, if anyone ever finds something that doesn't make much sense, tell me! And i'll immediately fix it! So without further ramblings, I hope you enjoy the chapter!

Alice walked over to the door calmly and turned the lock on it just as the stampede of nurses and doctors reached the room. Multiple cries of protest and annoyance were heard, but Alice simply closed the curtains and turned away.

Edward looked at me with sorrow. "Bella... This can't always be the solution to your problems."

I glared at him, and kicked the wall; Unable to think of a response. A extreme burst of pain bloomed in my foot as it connected with the hard surface. I muttered angrily, and felt Edward grab me from behind. He turned me around and put his hands on my cheeks. "Please don't."

"Bella, if she was to be bitten now... We don't know what would happen. She could be stuck in a limbo state for the rest of eternity. No one has ever bitten someone in a coma before." Alice added.

"It's better than letting her die!" I whined and leaned against Edward, the only thing keeping me from crumpling to the floor.

Edward and Alice glanced at each other, no doubt having one of their internal conversations. Something changed in Edward's eyes, and I knew I almost had him sold on the idea.

"Neither one of us know if we could even do it-"

"Carlisle." I said simply, cutting Edward off. "Carlisle. He could do it. He's done it before, he can do it!" I was desperate now. How long had we been sitting here contemplating? A minute? Maybe more? My mother was on the brink of death, and we were wasting time.

They looked at each other again for a fraction of a second, but I knew in that short period a multitude of words had been exchanged. I looked to Edward, then to Alice for confirmation. Edward sighed and looked at me sternly. "We need to hurry."

I threw my arms around him and sobbed into his shoulder. "Thank you. I almost thought..."

He chuckled and leaned his head down, kissing my forehead softly. "Haven't you learned by now that I will do anything for you?"

Alice was busy removing Renee's IV. Her hands were steady and practiced, as if she had done this thousands of times in the past. Discarded wires and tubes lay all around her like colorful snakes. She gently lifted her out of the bed and in a second she was at the window, pulling it open.

Edward pulled away from me as the sound of jingling keys was heard in the hall.

"Wait, where are we taking Renee?" The smell of blood suddenly assaulted my nose, and I immediately felt the world sinking under my feet. Somewhere in my peripheral vision I noticed my mother's IV laying on the floor, the minuscule pool of blood glistening at the end. Edward cursed under his breath and scooped me up. Alice disappeared out the window and Edward dashed over to where she'd been standing a second ago. Somewhere, I heard the lock clicking open.

Edward perched on the windowsill, holding me protectively against his chest with one arm. I gazed behind him with blurry eyes before he jumped. A doctor in salmon scrubs threw the curtains open. Her eyes immediately went to the empty bed. After that all I saw was blank, rough stone. No doubt, if Edward had jumped a second later, we would have been spotted. It was a calm, peaceful fall. It washed over me like a wave of cold water, and cleared my blurry mind. I didn't even think of how we were going to land until I looked up at the sky through Edward's arms and noticed how fast we were descending.

He slowly moved himself into a sort of protective bubble around me, his arms and legs forming an odd little cage. The way he positioned himself forced me to curl into a fetal position. I looked down. Bad idea. The ground suddenly flew up to greet me, and I quickly shut my eyes, dreading the impact. My mouth went dry, and perspiration formed on my forehead. I felt myself twirl upside down multiple times, like a roller coaster. Edward grunted and we started to slow down.

I squeezed my eyes shut, willing myself not to throw-up. After I collected myself, I dared a look. Edward was sprawled out under me, while I still lay in a fetal position on his stomach. I heard Alice talking somewhere so quickly I couldn't understand a thing being said. I glanced around. It looked like we were in an alley behind the hospital. A rather disgusting, smelly alley. On either side of the alley cars raced by without noticing us.

Edward propped himself up on his elbows and gave me a crooked grin. "Enjoy the ride?"

I smirked. Somehow I felt... scandalous. I'd just jumped from the third story window of a hospital, and we had practically kidnapped my mother for the thrill. I didn't know any other word for it. That, and all my fears of Renee dying were gone now. Carlisle was going to fix her. Save her.

I heard Alice snap her phone shut. She walked up from behind me, still gently holding mom in her arms. I rolled off of Edward and scrambled over to her.

"Carlisle is coming here instead. He said it would be best not to move her." She glanced at her watch. "He'll be here in exactly half a minute."

She gently lowered her down and laid her on the floor.

I sat down next to her. Her breathing was ragged, and her eyes were rolled into the back of her head. Edward and Alice stood next to me, awkwardly silent as I stroked her hand.

It hurt to look at her like this. I sighed. The next three days were going to be hell.
