A/N: Hi everyone! As always, thank you a million times to fresh-BLOOD-was-drawn-2night, CoppertopJ, traceybuie and MDBEU for all the awesome reviews! And thank you to all of you favoriting and following this little fic! Thanks for the support, guys and girls! You're amazing, and I'm delighted to share my little stories with all of you!
So, this is it. Last chapter. I've had much pleasure writing this story, and I hope you've enjoyed it! And I hope that you'll tell me what you thought of it!
I'll post the epilogue of More pheromones tomorrow ;)
New York, November 27th, 10.36 pm
Hi again, vampires! So, this is the last update for this blog.
Before you start to protest, please remember the name of this blog. Vegetarian Vampires in Volterra. Well, we're not in Volterra anymore, so there's no point keeping this blog. But my beloved mate and my family convinced me to keep one open and live, and change its name. So in a few weeks – I need time with my mate again, sorry! – I'll start the new blog Vegetarian Vampires around the World. In there we'll still be able to discuss about vegetarian topics and issues, random facts, and keep in touch with each other. I can't go back to ignoring the life of the vampires around us, especially since you've all become pen pals or more.
I've left Italy with my mate, our parents and our brother and sister, but Alice and her mate stayed a little longer, for her matchmaking trick. I truly hope she'll be able to help many of you in the coming years. And they've celebrated our departure, Cullen style. They lit fireworks in the much-abused throne room, making a nice show but setting everything on fire. The furniture and tapestries burned to the ground.
And the best part is that the Volturi, having thoroughly enjoyed the show, are delighted. They want to remodel and improve the gloomy throne room now. At last! FashionPixie, true to her nickname, gave them tips. The throne room will become a bar-lounge of sorts, with great music and animal blood served at the counter. I kinda want to go back and see it in the years to come. It sounds very promising. ;)
And now, dear vampires, the time has come for me to thank you. I've loved creating and updating this blog, and I loved your input, comments and retorts even more. Such a great thing has been created with it: a true bond between all of us. Now every vampire on this Earth knows that they're not alone, and that they can talk to others of their kind, and maybe meet them. I truly believe that by creating such bonds and becoming vegetarians, we become more than what we were meant to be. So good luck vampires, and see you soon on the next blog! Thank you so much for everything!
Edward Cullen
From BookLover87, 10.37 pm: I want to cry, Edward. That's beautiful but sad. All endings are sad.
From GoldenDoc, 10.38 pm: Not all endings, dear BookLover87. After all, our own ending was the start of something new and extraordinary. It wasn't sad.
From BlondeVenus1915, 10.39 pm: That remains to be seen, GoldenDoc, but now's not the time for philosophical debates. Thank you Edward, for a great blog. I never would've thought that you had it in you.
From EdwardCullen, 10.40 pm: Thanks, BlondeVenus1915. I'll take that as a compliment.
From GrizzlyBear1915, 10.41 pm: You have to admit that BlondeVenus1915 has a point, bro. With your uptightness and all...
From HappyMumofSix, 10.42 pm: Don't you dare criticize your brother, GrizzlyBear1915! Edward, I loved your blog. It was funny, serious, entertaining and mindblowing. Thank you, and I'm happy to read that you'll create another one.
From TexanNomad, 10.43 pm: Me too! I love reading what the other vampires have to say on all the topics. That's so great! Makes us feel like we belong in a community.
From DesertDove, 10.44 pm: But we do, TexanNomad. We're vampires ;)
From AmericanLioness, 10.45 pm: Yes, but now we know many more vampires than before, even if it's by nickname. Even as nomads we're not isolated anymore.
From SecludedEnglishVampire, 10.46 pm: Humpf. Fools.
From DesertJackal, 10.47 pm: Lovely input, as always, SecludedEnglishVampire. But AmericanLioness is right. Now we belong to a great family, with bonds that can strengthen over the years. We're not feral creatures of destruction anymore. We're more.
From SpaininAlaska, 10.48 pm: I do believe that some vampires will disagree with you, DesertJackal. But it's their loss.
From RedCoatsHater, 10.49 pm: So true! For my part, as a former nomad, I'm very happy to be 'civilized' and all settled as a vegetarian and a mate, and having discovered that we can belong to a nice group of vampires.
From FreudLover, 10.50 pm: This feeling of belonging comes all the way from our time as humans, with our gregarious instinct. So indeed, we're more civilized and less animalistic since we've started drinking animal blood.
From IrishPride, 10.51 pm: I really want to meet you someday, FreudLover. I think we'll have lovely discussions.
From IrishClover, 10.52 pm: What a lovely idea indeed! We're on a worldwide tour right now, maybe we could make a few stops in America?
From SparkyStrongVampire, 10.53 pm: Oh, that would be wonderful! I'd love to meet all of you!
From HappyMumofSix, 10.54 pm: We Cullens would be very happy to welcome you in our large estate in Montana. It can accomodate thirty vampires easily.
From FashionPixie, 10.55 pm: And the large farm next to it will be on sale in three weeks. That would be a good investment ;)
From SpanishCold, 10.56 pm: I like this idea! I so want to meet all of you!
From AlaskanWildfire, 10.57 pm: Yes, that would be so nice! And maybe a time full of opportunities...
From FelixLeader, 10.58 pm: Some of the Volturi guards still around are very interested too! Can they come?
From GoldenDoc, 10.59 pm: Of course they can come! ;) The more the merrier!
From HappyMumofSix, 11.00 pm: For Christmas? Is it enough time?
From IrishClover, 11.01 pm: Perfect!
From FreudLover, 11.01 pm: It would be perfect, HappyMumofSix.
From DesertDove, 11.01 pm: My mate and I would love to come too, HappyMumofSix.
From AmericanLioness, 11.01 pm: Count us in, if it's not too much of a bother.
From FelixLeader, 11.02 pm: Seven guards would like to come, and Othella and Will too.
From FashionPixie, 11.03 pm: We'll have so much fun!
From EdwardCullen, 11.04 pm: That's what I'm talking about. The bond. The feeling of community. Thank you all for this!
From BookLover87, 11.05 pm: And see you at Christmas in Montana!
From HappyMumofSix, 11.06 pm: We'll give you the address on the next blog! I'm so happy! Thank you all!
From GoldenDoc, 11.07 pm: A brotherhood of vampires. I have no words, but I'm so grateful.
From EdwardCullen, 11.08 pm: You made all of this possible, GoldenDoc. Thank you again. See you next month for real, vampires! Take care!
Take care too, dear readers! And a last plea for a review ;) Thank you so much for reading!
