"...Another hunter you want me to damn another man, to be irreversibly changed, tortured. In all likelihood succumbing to beasthood. Again?"

"You've done this plenty of times before iosefka"

"Yes and everytime I hate myself for it, also Gherman, I don't leave this place but I hear things I hear theres still several hunters operating in yharnam"

"Those men and women.., " Gherman spat out. "They are hunters no more, they may have the physicality of a hunter but no longer possess the spirit, succumbing to their own pointless goals and desires, or insanity"

"And whose to say this man, will not reach the same conclusion?"

"I fully expect them to, but we need a hunter with a hunters spirit to protect this city again. Even for a short time, given the state of things only creating a new one will allow this."

"I will not do this Gherman, not again"

"You may as well be leaving the doors to your clinic wide open for the scourge to ravage you and your patients then"

"When you watch them cry in agony transforming mind and body, and rip the others to shreds,don't come crying to me"

Iosefka took a breath. She appreciated the hunters but a part of her knew they were as much of an abomination as the beasts to turn a man or woman into a hunter was a faith far worse than death. Cracking the code of immortality but never truly being allowed to live ever again.

"I know this is hard for you iosefka, but think of the humans left in yharnam think of your patients, think of yourself. Whats one persons life compared to the many you could help the many the hunter could save?"

"Stop gherman, I will do it, but this is the last time"

"Will see." Was all the man said as she readied the instruments to create yet another hunter.

Then suddenly she swore she saw something in the corner of her eyes.

She startled for a moment which was rather unbecoming of her.

"IOSEFKA be quiet, I heard something"

Once that was said, iosefka remained silent as the Old Hunter began maneuvering his wheelchair around her clinic. The weakened wood creaking at every opportunity. She was never one to question the mans judgement regarding potential intruders, She was overly paranoid of the prospect herself given the state of the city, and her past affiliations. The old hunter saved her from potential death several times now. Though this time she felt as if the vigorous search was rather pointless this time around.

As whatever presence was in the corner of her vision moments before was no longer there.

Adam woke up from his rather strange dream feeling well exhausted. The dream was certainly weird, not so much scary but it felt as if he spent the past several hours standing when in reality he was in bed. Which was not unheard of though it was a odd for a dream like this. A dream he was basically not even present in, just a spectator essentially. Not even spectating anything particularly exciting just a conversation. A conversation about some topic he couldn't really understand. Featuring a man strapped to some kind of medical table. Though at the end of the day it was just a nonsensical conversation which isn't particularly foreign to his various dream, and nightmares. So he didn't understand or appreciate feeling like he was up for the past 6 hours when he actually was asleep.

He wanted to fall back asleep, perhaps get a better rest. Though it was nearly the time he would wake up anyways, and he was far too sweaty and disheveled to fall back asleep anytime soon anyways.

He opted to head to the shower, and so he did.

In the shower he again thought of yesterday's events, with the cullens, those students that seemed painfully interested in him and his sister. Mike, Lauren, Angela, and Eric.

Honestly the events in school yesterday consumed his mind so much, he was mentally absent at the nice dinner his dad treated them with at the local diner. Which he was still torturing himself about. Pretty bad of him to ignore his fathers hospitality, especially when he hasnt even seen said father for years.

He didn't even want to imagine what the friend of charlies we ran into thought about it. Probably thought I was some typical selfish teenager. He let these thoughts consume him for the remainder of his shower, but once he finished up and dried off he managed to get his mind on other things. Which basically meant he was back go contemplating the enigma of the cullens.

Charlie wasn't downstairs making breakfast today, he wasn't downstairs at at all actually guess he was at work. Which is probably something he mentioned that I forgot about. He glanced at the time, He still had plenty of time to cook or even bake something for breakfast, though given his laziness, he opted to have a pack of quaker oats with some peanut butter and a glass of water.

After he finished his Oatmeal, he still saw no sign of his sister, for all he knew she was kidnapped last night and he could be none the wiser. Which honestly was a description that applied to both him and his sister. You would think given the outgoing nature of Renee, and the slightly less outgoing nature of Charlie they would be a lot less reclusive. Though that was far from the case, It seems.

After a few more minutes lacking any sign of his sister. He set a timer on his ipod classic to let him know when to come back downstairs and headed upstairs. Found himself staring at notepad on the ancient windows vista computer in his room to work on pulling some essay draft out of his ass.

The essay itself wasn't due for a few weeks, though given it was for econ, he just wanted to atleast get some disjointed somewhat sensical sentences on paper. So he wouldnt have to worry as much about it. He was not nearly as interested in the class as Alice Cullen appeared to be. He also lacked a fundamental understanding of alot of what was talked about in class probably in part due to him attending halfway into second semester. Nontheless he somehow managed to type up a page in a half granted most of the first page was dedicated to his unnecessarily long introductory paragraph, and the remainder of it read like a 5 year olds summary of stock market. Though it was better than nothing. He devoted the remainder of his free time to laying down in his desk chair uncomfortably and listening to nine inch nails.

As soon as his timer went off he headed downstairs to his sister. Who somehow was completely ready and also washed the manh dishes in the sink. He often wonders how his sister manages to disappear from reality, then somehow, do a million things in less than 30 minutes. But just like in phoniex she somehow manages it. If he didn't know how impossibly clumsy she was, he would say she was super human.

The drive in the truck to the school was in relative silence. His sister clearly had things on her mind, most likely relating to the weirdness of edward yesterday. Once they got out of the truck they saw the beautiful volvo that stood out like a sore thumb yesterday drive into the school lot. With the familiar face and upper body of Emmett Cullen sticking out the top via the sunroof.

"Of course that car would belong to them" He stated quietly to his sister.

It was Shiny, Expensive, and didn't fit just like them.

Looking at them he felt they would've fit in alot better in Arizona. Certainly better than he did. Sure there would of been some backlash from people just like here. Would've been plenty of rich kids that they could relate to. Must be lonely for them here, looked at like alien creatures, treated more like object than person.

His sister of course was staring at the Volvo as well, though she had a look of disappointment on her face, for a moment he wondered what that was about, then his eyes caught up with his brain and he realized Edward was not among the cullens.

Which was not really cause for any alarm. Though he understood his sisters feelings after yesterday. She probably wanted to confront him or hoped to get a better read of him today, and as things were it appeared she would not be getting the chance at least for today. He wondered if perhaps the guy had some mental problem, anger issues or some such, and he confided in his parents and is staying home. Though he was hard pressed to think of any high school aged guy who would willingly admit such things much less stay home a day for them. Regardless of the reason maybe it was a good thing, if he was going through something it would be best if he wasn't taking it out on other people especially when those other people are his sister.

Bella still was distracted staring at the empty space that would probably have featured Edward if he would have came to school today.

He wished her a good day. and told her hed be heading to his class now since it was a bit farther away.

She just gave a zoned out "Ok" in response.

He made his way to history not a moment too soon, class was ok today. Though he found himself slipping in and out of consciousness a few times. In part due to the lecture, and in part due to him still feeling like he didn't sleep at all, despite getting several hours of rest. Thankfully the teacher seemed to modtly be rambling on today, and not actually going over very much at all. Normally, he would be annoyed by this, but in this case he appreciated it.

Gym was next which well just like yesterday Emmett Cullen remained in that corner. Though he wasn't messing around with the other guys like yesterday. But once he got closer to the man. He seemed to perk up. "Eyy Adam how ya doing?"

Adam was taken a back he didnt expect emmett to say anything to him. "How am I doing? Im pretty good weird sleep, but im good"

"Awesome, ready to show that volleyball whos boss?"

"Haha, I guess"

"Hell yea, Gonna kick the shit out of that ball"

"Well you don't kick a volleyball"

Emmett seemed like he took a second to think that over then said

"Oh yea you right…"

Emmett was pretty quiet today, other thsn that little interaction. Regardless class went by quickly yet again, and after contemplating the past day and the interaction he and emmett cullen had. He realized he was being hypocritical regarding the cullens, doing exactly what he was looking down on others for. He was looking at the cullens as objects as well. Not in the way several of the locals did but all the same he was not thinking of them as people. He was thinking of them as a force as a puzzle to be solved. He couldn't help but wonder if that was any better than the way Mike and Jessica thought of them. Hot rich assholes.

Which who knows maybe they were but, emmett hasn't given him that vibe, the only one hes had issues with so far is edward and that wasn't his issue it was his sisters, even if he was a dick. That didn't mean his whole family was.

He had questions about them, he had questions about alot of things, but he couldnt let that take over his head. Wasn't good for anyone especially not him.

He was in a much better mood after that revelation. Rest of his classes went by fast. Well until lunch, as his decision to treat the cullens like human beings was not shared by the rest of forks high, or his sister at this moment.

"Can you stop staring at their table?"

"No, I can't its just… it bothers me" She said

"I know you wanted to confront him today."

"How did…" She stopped her words halfwya through. Knowing the answer.

"Well I have known you your whole life…" He took a breath.

"I probably would have thought of doing the same thing if the situation were reversed, But I would have most likely chickened out last minute"

Bella nods in understanding.

"I just wanted to know why?"

"But you can't always know why…"

"I wanted to try"

"Theres always tomorrow." he stated with a smile.

The rest of his classes went by quickly. including economics. Despite the decision he made with himself earlier that day, and the conversation he had with his sister. He wouldn't lie and claim he didn't think of Alice Cullen at all. Debating if he should ask her about edward. Though he decided to wait it out for now. She might not even know whats going on with edward and even if she did, it was a weird thing to ask, and a breach of privacy. He did however almost ask her for notes, Alice, and him and a few other students were still in the classroom after the bell rang, but just as he was making his way towards her

desk she got up and walked out. He doubted she noticed him walking towards the desk, as he was barely out of his chair as she begun walking out. He debated if he should run after her, but ultimately decided that would be far too weird, and he didn't need notes right now anyways.

When he got to the parking lot he saw his sister speaking to the group we've been interacting with the past few days said goodbye to Mike, Angela, and Jessica introduced myself to the other guy Tyler. Then left.

Just like the drive to forks the drive back was silent well up until the last minute or two of the drive.

"I decided im going to confront him tomorrow if hes there"

"You sure?"

"Yes im sure,I need some answers for peace of mind"

"Even if the answers bad?"

"Yes even if his answer is he hates me, I need to know"

"Well as long as your prepared, just remember though even if edward turns out to be a dick, doesn't mean the others are."

"Huh?"

"Bella you seriously don't know that, just because one person is one thin…"

"No, no, no, Adam Adam not what im saying."

"Wondering why you felt like you had to point that out though?"

"oh…"

He paused, he knew why he did, he didn't know how to form

it into words though.

"I don't know I suppose… I suppose, just being in Gym class with Emmett and seeing how nice he is gives me a unique perspective." Alright he knew where he was going he couldn't stop now.

"Compared to alot of people at school who seem to just villify them, but also treat them like some showpiece."

"Im not treating them like a showpiece"

"I didn't say you were, I think your treating them like a puzzle, which I was as well, still kind of am if im honest"

"I just want answers."

"Yea I get that I do, i guess i lost track of what I was specifically trying to say, just if you don't like what edward tells you. First off don't let it put you in a bad mood, and second of all don't let it affect your view of the others. Like I said Emmett seems pretty nice"

"Thank you for that… Im still going to confront him tomorrow"

"I would expect nothing less"

Once we got home not much happened, I worked on my history notes looking up the dates of events i wrote down. Just in case they come up on a test. After that I felt like working on something outside of school work. Searched coding tutorials and tried my best continuing where i left off in phoniex, one of the few things i missed from phoniex highschool was the Programming class. No surprise forks didn't have one as not many high schools did. He worked on that until late into the night. He planned on talking with charlie whenever he came home, but given the time, he accepted that Charlie would not be home till long after he should be asleep.

He took a shower, then went to bed.

*tap, tap* Iosefka lightly tapped her desk as she looked over at her patients chart.

-

Patient: John Locke

!MUST RELOCATE PATIENT

Week 2 Day 1

Patient: John Locke

notes: Pateint willingly relocated, shortly after relocation his mental capacity succumbed to beast hood. Still maintains Bipedalism and generally human body shape.

Week 2 day 3 (Night of the Hunt)

Patient: John Locke

Notes: Patient has expanded to roughly 3 times original size. Patient no longer can speak, Observed running on all fours around first floor of her clinic. Beasthood has consumed him Patient is no longer human, 1st floor no longer usable for fear of farther spread.

Why did she even bother reading his chart, she memorized it by heart now. He came to her just a few weeks ago in what she thought was fully human. Perhaps some part of him was succumbing to beast hood even then, the day he first came to her clinic. He certainly looked fully human though. As time went on he begun to succumb to beasthood, though she being the experienced medical practitioner she was. With knowledge both from the healing church and from hunters like gherman. She was not scared. She has prevented the mental aspects of beast hood before. Slowed the physical spread. Even stopped the physical spread in some cases. She was not afraid, She fully believed she could save this man, from experiencing full beasthood, perhaps not forever but for a long time. Even when his symptoms became severe he still retained his mental capacity, she had hoped she could atleast save him from the horrendous destruction of his intelligence and personality beasthood brings on. Though no matter what she did nothing would slow down his descent. Not sedatives, not her blood vial, not even the last remaining blood saint vial she had from her time with the church.

She watched a man turn into something that lacked any humanity whatsoever. One of the few patients who was both lucid and willing to talk to her. Someone who had their own wants, drives, likes, and dislikes succumbed to beasthood, and she could not even slow down the process like she was able to in the past, he also made a good chunk of her clinic completely unusable, on the night of the hunt no less.

What did that mean for the scourge, for her clinic. If she can't even slow down the affects of beasthood anymore would she even be of use to the people here.

She vowed to never abandon her patients. What iif taking them into her clinic, is doing more harm than good. If another John Locke situation happens it could infect the few other humans here , Her included. Some naive part of her thought she was safe due to the knowledge she had and some rituals she was a part of within the upper divisions of the church. As John locke proved though, those only go so far.

"Um Hello" Said a foreign male voice

Iosefka Tensed. The voice was certainly not one of her patients and the only other person who was granted entry here was Gherman. She looked up, the man she saw was certainly not Gherman. He was far too young, and lacked any of the gray hair the old hunter had. He also had the strangest garb shes ever seen. He had a Black material on his upper body, The material appeared to only be one piece and it only covered his torso and his shoulders. On his lower body all he had on were pantaloons made out of some material she never seen before. Could this be a choir acolyte? She eyes the Amputation saw on the medical table between them.

"Who are you? Are you them? Did you bring the scourge?"

"... Excuse me?"

The man seemed confused though she could not risk him being a choir member or worse bringing the plague to her clinic yet again. Iosefka ran towards her saw grabbed it then ran towards the man. The man looked utterly terrified.

"WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP…"

The man started violently grabbing his face yelling wake up. This wasn't uncommon for yharnam as Gherman said earlier plenty of people succumbed to insanity. Though the way he was talking. He heard of this, from gherman.

"Are you dreaming?" Iosefka asked

"WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP"

The boy yelled more.

Iosefka looked at the boy, then her saw blade. At this point she took a big risk. She put the saw blade down, walked up to the boy. Touched his shoulder, he tensed at the motion.

"Are you a dreamer?" She asked again

"Yes Im dreaming" The boy said as the tenseness went down.

"Do you know how you came to be in this dream?"
