-1Disclaimer: I don't own them, Stephenie Meyer does. I don't own Elizabeth. She owns me…rofl.

A/N: I just thought I should let you know that this entire chapter is in 3rd person. I'm sorry if it confuses any of you. I'd be happy to answer any questions!

The light illuminated the room, casting an eerie glow upon Bella's face. Her eyes were wide in horror as Edward stepped towards her. She took a step back and grabbed the candlestick that was sitting upon the mantle. Holding it out in front of her like a sword, she closed her eyes and swung, knocking Edward backwards.

"Edward, I'm sorry…but this is the only way." her voice was lined with tears she could never shed. "Can't you see Edward? I love you, but I can't let you do this…if you let me stay here you'll all die. This is the only way…"

"Bella, that isn't true. I'm sure you can learn to control it, just like I have with mine…" His eyes were pleading for her to forget the foolish plan.

Her eyes were a bright orange and her hair seemed darker. "There is no way to control it Edward! The only way is for me to hunt Every. Single. Day. And what happens once I devour all of the animals around here? I force you and our family to move all over again? No, Edward. I'm putting my foot down…" her eyes softened as she kneeled beside him. "I'm doing this for us Edward. It's what's best for us…please believe me."

"How can you say this is for us? You never asked my opinion at all, Isabella. This is for you. So that you won't have to keep control of yourself. You're doing this, because deep down…you never loved me at all."

Alice opened her eyes with a start, half gasping and half screaming. What had Bella been talking about? She had seemed so different in her vision, scared…tortured even. And how in the world could Edward say that Bella never loved him? Even Alice knew without a doubt the Bella was madly in love with him. She had given up her humanity, just to be with him…well, actually she had slightly forced him into it. If Bella had just stayed out of those woods, she would never have come across Elizabeth. Alice remembered her vision, and how she had debated whether or not warning Edward. In the end, her own need for Bella to become like her, had overpowered her morals.

"Change me. Please…" Bella was lying next to Elizabeth, barely able to move, her wrist still oozing droplets of blood.

"Foolish Bella…let your beloved Edward change you."

"He won't…that's why he left me…why he broke up with me. Because he doesn't want me to love him, or love how he is." she let out a small sob and looked up at Elizabeth with pleading eyes. "Please…All I want is to be with him forever…"

She shrugged. "It's not my problem. Whether or not he changes you, is up to him. All I care about is Emmett…I miss him. Rosalie could never love him as much as I do." She glared at Bella and then sat beside her. "How could he forget his fiancé? We were engaged for a year and a half…and he fell for her so quickly…without a second thought about me."

"I'm sure he loved you very much…but he was near dying…instincts took over." Bella closed her eyes as she felt her body begin to tremble. She knew the end was near. That's when she felt the front of her blouse rip open and a fire starting in her chest. She screamed out in pain, twitching.

"Bella…I told you to stay out of the woods…but you never listen to me. Gods, you drain all of my energy…can't you just listen to me for once?"

"Alice?" She looked up from the journal she was writing in and stared at Carlisle.

"I don't think it was ever Billy…Carlisle. It was never Billy.." Carlisle sat next to her and wrapped his arms around her in an embrace. He had gotten so used to doing this as a way to comfort her, that it came as second nature to him.

"I know Alice, but what I do not know is what it could be. Or why it seems to effect Edward the most." Alice looked at him with knowing eyes, taking his hand in both of hers.

"It's because he is in possession of the catalyst."

"What?" they both lowered their voices, trying to make sure that no one overheard. "What is it?"

"Who." Her voice was sorrow-filled and her eyes empty. She knew what would have to be done, soon, if she were to save Edward.

"Bella?" She nodded. She had it all figured out now, and was surprised she hadn't seen it before. Maybe she hadn't wanted to see, or maybe she couldn't. But it had been there all along, the answer.

"When Bella was alive, it took all of Edward's energy to keep her safe." She began. "Now that she is one of us, that trait of hers, has become something a lot more powerful. If you notice, Edward started to get sick after Bella's eyes had turned completely black. She hadn't fed in almost three weeks."

"She didn't feed until I brought her blood home either."

"Yes, and in that time Edward got even worse. That's when Bella had the breakdown. She was having an emotional/energy overload. But as soon as you fed her, Edward began to get better."

Carlisle thought this over for a moment before standing up. He was worried, contemplating what he should do about this information he had just received. "So you're saying, that when Bella gets hungry, she feeds on vampires…mentally?"

Alice nodded complacently. "That is indeed how it seems. And Bella has been so…out of it lately, she hasn't fed since the last time we forced her to. That was 3 weeks ago, which explains why we're all feeling, exhausted to say the least."

"How do we break this to Edward? How do we explain to him that his lover is slowly killing him without realizing it?" Alice lowered her voice at Carlisle's question.

"He already knows, he read my thoughts this morning at breakfast. It took every inch of control I possessed to hide my vision. Bella is going to leave him, Carlisle. She knows that she's the one hurting him, why he's sick. I think she realized that after Jasper found no trace of poison in any of the animals. She believes that she's hurting us."

"Well…we just won't let her leave." and with that, Carlisle walked out of the room. Leaving Alice alone with her knowledge.

"I don't think we can stop it Carlisle…." she murmured.

A/N: originally this chapter was much longer, but I felt as if I was rushing the information…and that's something I hate doing. Yes, the chapters are much shorter, but in return they're will be more chapters. AND I have decided, if you want it…there will be a sequel. If everyone is sick of my writing though, I won't waste my time lol. So! Do you want a sequel? Lol…till next time!
