About a half an hour had passed after I had called everyone to come home, and I had been pacing back in forth in my office the entire time. My thoughts solely of my newest daughter, her condition, and how frail and lifeless she looked. Suddenly, interrupting my thoughts, I noticed a soft knock sounding from the door. Had I not been a vampire, I probably wouldn't have heard it. From its owners scent, I knew it immediately to be Esme'.

'Come in.' I whispered. I kept pacing until I felt a gentle, loving hand touch my shoulder. I turned around, stared into her eyes for awhile. So Beautiful. I thought, while sweeping her up in my arms walking over to the couch and sitting down with her snuggled up against my chest.

That was when she noticed I was shaking.

'What's wrong, Love?' Her hand came up a touched my cheek lightly I looked down at her smiling softly, watching her search my eyes for any signs of distress, with her own hypnotizing orbs.

I sighed, kissed her forehead, and replied- 'It's the right thing isn't it? Changing her or. . .or pulling the plug? It has to be the right thing. Bella is our daughter too. You know I wouldn't wish or want pain for anyone when I can prevent it, and I wont allow her to go through all this. . .suffering. . If she wont even live to see that it was for a reason. So this isn't wrong. . Is it?'

I looked down to gauge her reaction, but as soon as I did, I felt her lean up and press her amazingly soft lips to mine for and pull away. I smiled down at her for a moment or two, and when I did her eyes, that were staring back at my were sparkling and shining like sun. I grabbed her face in my hands brought her lips back to mine, and felt her hand press against my cheek, rubbing it lightly. I pulled away, but pressed my forehead against hers. We were quiet for awhile, just staring into the others eyes no words needed to be spoken. We were saying it all without really saying anything.

And then Rosalie, stopped outside the door, knocked as softly as Esme had but not opening the door, and said in the kindest voice I had ever heard her use, 'He's here. We'll wait for you downstairs in the dinning room.'

I looked back to Esme, and noticed that she too had venom tears in her eyes. And for once, in all my existence of being this creature of the night that I am, I wished that we were able to cry.

Just cry ourselves to sleep. Or cry until there were no tears left. Just one time. Esme' stood up then, grasped my hand, leaned down to where I was sitting, kissed my lips quickly and said that we should go.

I too stood up and we walked downstairs hand in hand, waiting for the events that would either come as Isabella's rise or. . . Her downfall. And it relied solely on my children, as me and Esme' were not going to sway our children's decisions by voicing our thoughts until the end, even though they all probably know what we decided.

We walked together to the dining room, but stopped in the doorway as the sight before me broke our hearts.

Rosalie had her head on Emmet's shoulder, looking like she was about to cry, but trying her absolute hardest not to.

Emmet had his head resting on Rosalie's, while rubbing soothing circles on her hand, looking like he too had wanted to cry, but was trying to be strong for everyone else.

Jasper who had been trying to calm everyone down gave up and let his despair as well as everyone else's wash over him, and he hugged Alice closer to his chest and began trembling.

Alice had her hands pulling her hair with her face buried in Jasper's chest, and was dry sobbing, and shaking violently.

-I was surprised that she hadn't had a vision and seen the outcome, but then someone probably hasn't made a decision.

And Edward. . .Well Edward was Edward. Meaning he was wallowing in self despair and pity yet to o stubborn and cowardly to do anything about that.

-And since I knew he was listening I threw that in there for his benefit. Sure enough a light growl came from his chest.

I grabbed up Esme's hand and we walked to the head of the table. Esme' sat down while I remained standing. It was then I realized that my children nor my darling Esme' knew about Bella's cancer.

'I know this is something that some of us do not want and others wanted to put off for a time that Isabella could be here to discuss it with us. However I am sorry to tell you that there is no time. She has Cancer of the Heart. And it kills me to say that this is untreatable. She is at an active level 4. . . And that's Terminal. Dr. Calargian has put Bella in an induced coma.

-They all gasp-

'A temporary coma is sometimes deliberately induced (using drugs) to reduce swelling of the brain after injury. It may also be induced to break the constant overwhelming immune strain being exerted on the body by a severe viral infection, or, by a host of illness which have resulted in extreme chronic illness.

'But Bella is still unresponsive. And I don't want her to be in pain for the rest of her life.

'So. She changes into one of us. To be with us forever. And the family will be complete. . ? Or I will take her off the machines and we have much certainty that she will not live past a few minutes and they shall be the most painful heart-wrenching scene to witness. Imagine what it would be like if we had to burn to alive forever.' I looked around at my children's faces. 'And we had to feel every second of it. It'll be worse for her.'

Then to Esme' who looked absolutely horrified heartbroken depressed devastated and scared all at the same time. I reached down to grab her hand. And she stood at my side while we prepared to make the hardest decision we were faced with for a long time.

I looked to my eldest son. 'Edward?'

He paused 'I don't have an answer just yet.'

I turned then to Alice.

She smiled. 'Yes. She is my sister. And now we can be a family again.'

I looked to Jasper. He looked to Edward and then he looked down

* "I vote "yes". It would be nice not wanting to kill her all the time"

I looked to Rosalie, who now had her head down looking at the table. She stood walked over to where Edward was sitting and put her hand on his shoulder. She then looked at everyone.

* "No. I don't mean that I have any aversion to her as a sister. It's just that… this is not the life I would have chosen for myself and I wish there had been someone there to vote no for me."

Edward sighed in relief.

'Emmet?' I looked at him puzzled. I thought he and alice's would answers would be definite. But as I saw him, sitting there, looking at his beautiful wife, whose eyes were heartbroken. He had come to a decision. Rose looked at him for a moment and leaned in and whispered something so low we couldn't hear just what it was and sat back in her chair. His eyes changed. With a new emotion in those golden eyes of his. He stood up grabbed Rose by the hand and with one last look at her he looked to all of Us and said;

'I'm so sorry -
