Okay, guys. This is the last longish one. I'll put out the Epilouge a few hours after I release this chapter.

Thank you so much for reading my first fic! It has been so great writing it for you guys.

Duh: I'm not Stephenie

"She's... I mean, Edward... I'm hers, and I can't help that." Seth whispered to me, tears dripping from his lovely brown eyes. Eyes that I now held so dear to me. Eyes that were now casting me away.

"I... I'm going.. To understand..." My hands were in fists, and I could hear the soft screeching between my fingers. I had to fight to remember I was standing out in the open, in the middle of Seattle. The fountain roaring next to me, why couldn't everything just be QUIET?

Somewhere outside of my body, I heard a deafening screech, and the humans around me began to panic.

"What was that?"

"Is the building breaking, Daddy?"

"What the hell?"

"Quiet!" I yelled, and I felt everyone jump around me. Their thoughts bombarded my mind, but one 'voice' stood out the most.

Edward?

Seth. I turned my eyes to him, swiftly for a vampire. He stared at me, and was that fear I saw in his eyes?

"Seth, don't be afraid of me." I whispered quickly, my words blurring together. A child, the one that was question the noise, my noise, to her father, stumbled, trying to get away. A good sense of fear.

But my noise pricked at the smell of her blood.

"Get out of here." I said lowly to Seth, who's eyes were flickering back and forth between the child and I.

"You stay away from her." Seth growled, and I snickered. He actually thought that I would lunge at a small human? In the middle of the city? The thought made me sick. I couldn't possibly scare Seth that way, could I?

The answer was painted clearly on his face.

Yes, I could.

The mere thought that I made him feel that was was.. diasterous. I lost control. My body lunged at the child's throat, and in a flash something slammed into me, causing an explosion. Alice was crouched on top of me, snarling.

"Get the out of here! Seth, now!" The voice was Carlisle's, but I snarled at it. Everyone needed to get away from me, I was going to... To... Explode. My brain was going to combust. It was just all too much.

I grabbed Alice's arm and threw her into a pillar, "Modern Art", that was about fifty feet away from me. I was almost to the sweet blood. I could almost taste the child's innocence, the sickly sweet essence that ran though her veins. I had to have it.

"No!" Emmett and Carlisle yelled together, or rather, it sounded together, and Emmett threw me sideways, away from my prey. I lept back at him, but Emmett just held me close.

"My brother." Emmett sounded choked up, like he would be crying if he could. I snarled and ripped at his arms, trying to break free, to take the child that was oh-so-slowly being towed away by her father.

"Emmett." My body lurched again to the child again, making my will to even speak fade slightly. Being taken by the instinct to kill. I was so very happy for my small amount of conscience then. "Kill me, please. Emmett."

My brother looked as if he were being strangled, but I saw from the corner of my eye Carlisle nodded once. Emmett let out a mutialted cry, and Seth yeowled, still in his human form.

"Kill me!" I shouted, he needed to do it, I couldn't let myself live if I killed a child, a child for Christ's sake. I felt my body still tearing at Emmett, Alice watching him in horror. Or maybe she was watching me with that look on her face.

"My brother." Emmett whispered, and the last feeling I felt was his lips at my neck, like a farewell kiss. The last thing I saw was Alice's empty eyes.

Review? Please!
