Night

Cullen Residence

The Cullens talk outside while Bree is inside.

"What do you think?" Rosalie asked

"Should we?" Alice asked

"She's a little..." Emmett said as Jasper finishes his sentence

"Untrained." Jasper said

"She could be a good use to us." Esme said

"I made the agreement. I'm the one who's going to help her." Sarah said

"Are you sure you can do this on your own?" Esme asked Sarah

"I guess you guys can pitch in. Wait here while I talk to her. (She goes inside and goes upstairs in the living room pacing around.) I need you to calm down. (Bree stops and sits on the couch. Sarah sits beside her.) You never told me your name." Sarah said

"Bree Tanner." Bree said

"Sarah. And I know what it's like to feel worried or..." Sarah said as Bree finishes her sentence

"Frightening." Bree said

"Yes. Reasons are reasons." Sarah said

"They wanted to kill me. You saved me." Bree said

"I see you as a runaway. A runaway who needs a second chance in life." Sarah said

"I was born in Nevada, but lived in Idaho most of my life. I thought my mother left me and my father when I was four." Bree explain

"That wasn't it, was it?" Sarah asked Bree

"My father killed her. He buried the body in the desert, then we packed up and moved to Idaho. I couldn't tell anyone. If he found out that I told anyone then he would kill me. No one ever noticed the signs of my father. Despite some physical evidence. I just couldn't take it anymore. I had enough money. Left the house and hopped on a bus and went to Seattle. I tried to get a job, and began stealing to get some food. I slept in parks and alleys. Any place where I can feel safe. My biggest fear was that the police would catch me and send me back home to my father. I've been on the run for less than three weeks. That's when Riley found me behind a restaurant, picking through the trash bins. He offered myself a 'burger', then took me into a dark alley where another vampire turned me." Bree kept explaining

"Victoria turned you." Sarah said

"As opposed she did." Bree said

"I'm her first progeny. She turned me after my mother was killed by her and her lover James. I lost control. I ask the Cullens to let me die. But other then that I was willing to get a second chance. Maybe that's why you're here." Sarah said

"What do you mean?" Bree asked Sarah

"You were abused by your father. This is your chance. Living a bad life and start a new one. A good life. You don't have to steal from anyone." Sarah said

"I don't want to die." Bree said

Sarah hugs Bree.

"I'm not going to let that happen. (They stopped hugging.) Listen. You can have my room for right now until we get you situated. Borrow some of my clothes for right now. Besides you look a little ragged." Sarah said

"I do. Do I?" Bree asked again

"Yeah." Sarah said

Her phone was vibrating and she gets it out. It was a text from Embry.

"Jacob wants to see u. Where r u?" Embry asked Sarah in a text

Sarah puts her phone in her pocket. She looked back at Bree. "I have to go. But I'll come right back." Sarah said

"You promise?" Bree asked again

"I promise. (She gets out of the house. She looks at the others.) I need you guys to watch her until I get back." Sarah said

"We'll watch her." Jasper said

She walks to her car. Gets in it and drives off.


Jacob's house

Sarah pulls up and parks and gets out. She ran into Embry and hugged him. She looked at Carlisle, Edward, Bella, Emily, Billy, and the rest of the wolf pack. She stopped hugging Embry and walked towards Billy.

"I'm sorry. I gave you my word that Jacob would've never been harm. I've failed you." Sarah said to Billy

"It's not your fault." Billy said

"Can I see him?" Sarah asked Billy

"Yes." Billy said

She goes inside. Sarah enters to find Jacob lying in bed. The entire right side of his body is in braces.

"Hey." Jacob said

"Hey. I'm sorry I didn't come sooner." Sarah said

"It's ok." Jacob said

"No it's not." Sarah said

"You need to stop that." Jacob said

"Stop what?" Sarah asked Jacob as she was confused

"Blaming yourself. You tried to save me. That's all it matters." Jacob said

"At least Leah doesn't have to chew on me like a toy. (He laughs but realizes it still hurts as he grunts in pain.) You get some rest." Sarah said

"You've always been a big help." Jacob said

She leaves the house and looks at Edward.

"Take my car." Sarah said

He reads her mind and realizes she wants to talk to Embry alone.

"Of course." Embry said


In the forest.

"You ask Edward to take your car?" Embry asked his girlfriend

"There's a reason why I did it." Sarah said

"What did you do?" Embry asked again

"I made a deal with the Volturi. To exchange your life, I had to help and train this newborn. A newborn who needed help. A girl." Sarah said

"Is she..." Embry was about to ask

"She's mostly a runaway and was abuse by her father. She's a little frighten. Beside her bloodlusts and werewolves." Sarah said

"I'll come by the house everyday and help out." Embry said

"You would do that?" Sarah asked her boyfriend

"I will always do anything for you." Embry said

He kissed her on the beside on her head.


Cullen Residence

Living room

"Finally, you're here." Rosalie said as a relief

"Of course." Sarah said

"She still ask for you." Alice said

"Right. (She goes upstairs and into her room and sees Bree sitting on the bed with wet hair and her clothes.) I can see you found my room and out of those ragged clothes." Sarah said

"Clean, yes. (She looked at Sarah's drawings.) Did you draw these?" Bree asked Sarah

"Yes. I wanted to become an artist before I was turned. What did you want to be?" Sarah asked Bree

"Tell you the truth. I don't what I wanted to be. I didn't have that much in schooling." Bree said

"Have you thought about school since you got here?" Sarah asked again

"I don't know." Bree said

"Really? No cell phone?" Sarah asked again

"No." Bree said

"No parties?" Sarah asked again

"No. He said he would kill me if I go." Bree said

"Sorry missy. But I think it's time we changed all of that. First thing tomorrow, we need to get some animal in you." Sarah said
