I would've posted a new chapter sooner, but I was gone all weekend. I thank you all so much for the reviews. I was going to wait until to tomorrow to update, but I figured you guys deserved this. WARNING: Jasper is a little crabby in this chapter. But don't worry Jasper/Alice fans! They will be together!

Esme's POV:

There was so much going through my head right now. If anything bad happens to Alice or Jasper, I wouldn't be able to go on. I was the first one to burst through the hospital's main doors. I rushed over to the front desk with Carlisle following close behind. "Dr. and Mrs. Cullen!" The usual woman behind the desk stood up. "They're on the third floor. One is in room 306, the other is in 308."

I nodded and went right past the elevator. "Esme?" Edward asked. I shook my head and headed for the stairs. They would be much quicker. I pushed open the stairwell doors and dashed up the steps. I had reached the third floor in record time. The first room I spotted was 308. I pushed through that door to see Alice. There was two doctors around her, running tests.

"Alice!" I ran to her bedside and grabbed her hand. She was beat up pretty badly. I put my other hand on her forehead. "Oh sweetie." If I could cry, tears would be streaming down my face. I leaned down and hugged her tightly. "Alice, I'm so sorry. Everything is going to be okay." I pulled away to get another look at her. She looked up at me, weakly. I could see a small smile form on her face.

I turned around at the sound of a door opening. Carlisle entered with Edward. I looked back to Alice, praying that she was going to be okay. "It's okay, Alice. Carlisle is going to fix this." I assured her. Alice gave me a slight nod. "Emmett and Rosalie are with Jasper." Edward whispered, when he came up beside me. I nodded, not wanting to let go of Alice.

"Edward. Esme." Carlisle spoke very softly. "I need to run more tests and x-rays. I'm sorry, but you'll need to leave the room for a little." He wasn't even looking at us while he spoke. He was putting on rubber gloves. When he did finally look up, I glared at him. There was no way I was leaving her. "Esme, please." He placed a hand on my back. "She'll be fine."

I gave one last sad look at Alice, before leaving the room. "I can't believe this is happening." Edward said, slowly. He ran his hand through his hair. I closed Alice's door softly. "We should go see Jasper." I pointed out. He nodded and followed me to room 306.

Emmett was at the doorway when I opened it. "Can we go see Alice?" He asked. I shook my head no. "Carlisle needs to run x-rays on her." I took one look at Jasper and almost lost it. He was in better condition then Alice, but it still hurt to see them like this. He gave me a half hearted smile.

"Hey Esme." He whispered. I rushed over and placed my hand over top of his. The smile across his face faded quickly. "Is Alice okay?" He asked. I stared into his eyes for a second before answering. "I don't know... if." How could I say this to him? "Alice is in very serious condition. She can't even talk." I whispered. Jasper's eyes grew wide. "She's very weak." Edward added.

Water started to form in Jasper's eyes. "This is all my fault." His tone broke my heart. Edward was right. How could this be happening? They are such great kids. Why them. I heard a low sob and turned to Rosalie crying. "Don't cry, Rose." Jasper whispered.

"Why not?" She tried to snap at him, but couldn't. "This shouldn't be happening to you or Alice."It's not even fair." Emmett wrapped his arm around her shoulders. Rosalie continued to sob silently.

We sat in silence for about twenty minutes. Though it felt like hours. Rosalie had calmed down a bit. Jasper had his eyes closed, but not sleeping. Edward was sitting in a chair with his head in his hands. Emmett was leaning against a wall, probably thinking. The wait for Carlisle was finally over when he stepped into the room.

He didn't speak at first, which was not a good sign. "Esme. Kids. Will you please step outside here for a minute?" My stomach dropped. Edward placed his arm over my shoulder as we walked out. Carlisle closed the door and we followed him down to a small waiting room. When we stopped, still no one spoke.

Carlisle came to my side. He looked at each of us, before starting. "Alice, is in a very serious condition. She has very bad head injuries." The words seemed to flow out slowly. "Her body is very weak and can't hold out my longer." I felt a sob rise up in my throat. "Alice..." He took in a deep breath before continuing. "She's going to die."

Rosalie's face went pale, before she burst into tears. The tears flooded her eyes like a river. Emmett had a few tears had a few tears go down his face too. Edward started to walk away. This crash might just rip my family apart. A thought rang through my ears like a siren. "Is there any way you can save her?" I asked.

"I'm afraid not." He whispered. I heard Rosalie's sob grow stronger. I looked up at Carlisle, disappointed. "Carlisle." I muttered, softly. He turned over to look at mme. "Esme, don't." He warned.

I placed my hands on my hips. "Carlisle!" I snapped. "We're going to save her!"

Carlisle gripped my arms tightly in his. "Esme, please. Don't do this." He whispered, so only I could hear. I stared up at him, amazed. How could he not want to save Alice? "Carlisle. If you don't mind, I'd like to speak with you in your office for a second." I said, loud and clear. I walked away from him and down the hall.

When I heard him close the door, I exploded. "How could you do this?! We are going to save Alice! If turning her, saves her life... you're going to do it!"

He sighed and waited for me to calm down. "I thought we agreed that we would let them deicde for themselves." He replied.

"Well how is Alice going to decide when she can't even talk?! What are we supposed to do?! Watch her die?!" I screamed. Carlisle shut the blinds on the door. He sighed. "I won't turn her into this unless she wants it."

"Then she'll die." I stated simply. "Do you really want to do that to your family?"

Carlisle looked angry. Good. I was making progress. "Esme...what more do you want me to do?!"

"Save her."

"Alright." He whispered. "What are we supposed to tell the kids?"

I shrugged. "The truth. Bring them in here."

Carlisle disappeared out the door. How were we supposed to tell the kids? What if they thought we were monsters? These questions never occured to me before. Anything could happen. He returned quickly with everyone following behind. "Your mother and I would like to talk to you." Carlisle began. "We know that this whole accident has become a shock to all of us. But we can't let this tear us apart. There is a way to save Alice, though."

Each of their ears perked up. "You see... there is a way to end all of this pain for Alice." I continued.

"How?" Rosalie asked, anxious.

I took a deep breath before answering. "Immortality." I answered.

"What?" Emmett asked. "Is that even possible?"

"I'm here talking to you, aren't I?" I asked.

Emmett's face turned stunned. He reached out slowly and touched my hand. "That's why you're so cold?" He asked. I nodded. Rosalie reached out too. Even Edward touched my hand. "Wait. Are you guys aliens?" Emmett asked. He stood up. "You punished me when I was little for pretending to be an alien! When I put that green slime in the kitchen as alien substances!"

I swatted Emmett in the head. "We're not aliens!"

"Then what are you?" Rosalie asked.

Carlisle and I looked at eachother briefly. "We're vampires." Carlisle stated. I looked at each other faces. The only shocked one was Emmett. Rosalie and Edward looked pretty calmed. "Before you get any crazy ideas Emmett, no we don't eat people." That sounded a bit weird, but hey, Emmett was bound to start rolling off smart comments.

"What do you eat?" Edward asked.

"We drink the blood of animals. You know how we always go on camping trips? That's why." I answered.

They nodded, seeming to understand. "So... you can do this to Alice? Make her a vampire?" Rosalie asked. I was sure that she just wanted her sister to be okay. I nodded. "What about Jasper?" She asked.

"I'll tell Jasper and Alice everything. We'll still give Alice the choice. And Jasper can choose this if he wants it. But, Jasper will survive without becoming a vampire. His condition has gotten better." Carlisle answered.

"Carlisle, I think you should go talk to them now." I said.

He nodded and left the room silently. Each of us stared off, wondering what was about to happen.

(XxXxXxXxXxX)

An exact hour had gone by before Carlisle returned. I stood up as soon as he entered the office. "Jasper is refusing to go through with it." He said, first. I looked at him in shock. "Alice says that she will do it, but doesn't want to go alone."

"Did you tell Jasper that?" Rosalie asked.

"Yes." Carlisle looked over at her. "He still refuses. I'm not sure why."

I bit my lower lip. "Then what are we supposed to do about Alice?"

"I'll do it with her." Edward whispered, finally speaking.

What did you think? Review silly=]
