The next four months passed in a haze, all of us went to Cornell; Jasper and I were students while Carlisle taught part time, Esme was restoring a 17th century house and Rose and Emmett were in Europe. I'd gone to the mental hospital I'd been kept in and stolen my file then I'd went and looked at my tombstone it said; here lies Mary Alice Brandon, born 1903 died 1916 may she rest in peace. From the tombstone I'd inferred that for my family I died at the age of 13 and spent the last 4 years of my life in a loony bin.
I pulled out the file from the hospital and began to read;
Veterans Affairs Medical Center
Name: Mary Alice Brandon Preferred Name: Alice
Age: 13
Admittance Date: October 13th 1916
Release Date: December 21st 1920
Problem: extreme amnesia, claims to be clairvoyant
Doctor: Dr. Jason Burkes
Treatment: Shocks
Notes: Mary claims to see the future often asks if she's in the present. Mind can comprehend only two times past and present says her brain needs to comprehend future as well. Was treated for 3 years by Dr. Michael Jones, every time as a seizure she forgets everything in her past, she claims seizures are visions. Disappeared after a strange blond stranger arrived at the VAMC, was released on December 21st after being assumed dead.
Once every 2 weeks I went over to see Edward at first Jazz came along but eventually he stopped coming along. This particular day Jazz drove me to the airport and growled at 18 different guys I giggled and dismissed it every time. "I wish I could come to Isle Esme too." Jazz said as we waited for them to call my flight.
"You can"
"Yeah but Edward's really depressed and then you get upset so it just kind of throws me off"
"Really"
"Yeah" Jazz whispered in my ear as the intercom called my flight he kissed me goodbye as I walked towards the gate. I was greeted with more stairs as people noticed my designer outfit; I was wearing a designer sleeveless white dress, black sash and yellow flowers climbing up the dress and black shoes with a yellow lily as the heals.
As soon as I sat in the plane I pulled out my old diary and snapped the lock because I doubted Cynthia had given me a lock. Every page was the same until I arrived at the last page, it wasn't written in the same small scrawl as the rest but instead it was a smooth flowery cursive:
Dear Alice,
Because of your regular mental lapses and amnesia troubles, I thought I'd give you a note to explain what you've become hopefully you'll be able to keep this diary. My old acquaintance James has decided to kill you in order to save you I'm turning you into a vampire. Your ability to see the future will guide you, you must rely on it. Go to the Biloxi State Prison and help release Cameron Lyon and he will help you. James will probably kill me but I wish you luck in your new life, I hope you will help destroy him.
Calvin
I looked at the note and recalled the note I'd been holding in my head when I became a vampire;
Dear Alice,
You are a vampire
Some vampires have
You can foresee the
Knowing the future
Yours Truly
They were quite similar suddenly I noticed we'd arrived in Rio de Janeiro, I took a cab to the west coast and took a boat to Isle Esme, where Edward waited. I hadn't expected Edward to be well but I hadn't expected what I saw; Edward was a mess he was wearing the same clothes that Jasper had managed to get him changed into a month ago, his hair was messy and so matted I couldn't tell the color and his eyes were blacker than black.
You haven't been hunting I thought
"No" came his robotic reply
Do you know what you look like I recalled the image of him so he could see
"No"
You need to hunt
"No"
Edward it's not your fault
"It is" I turned to walk out the door "don't leave yet"
Ok but you need to hunt, I'll get you some blood
"Ok" Edward muttered, I grabbed a thermos and went out hunting long enough to fill myself and the 3 thermos' (the other 2 picked up at the market)
After I got back to the cottage I more or less had to spoon feed the blood to Edward I think a child would have faired better. I expected angry at my thoughts but Edward gave no response. "Alice how do you think Bella is?" Edward asked weakly.
I dug into the future until I got a vision "How about we go to the movies on Friday?" Bella asked Mike Newton nervously
"Sure" was his reply
Edward looked at me with dark eyes "She's going out with Mike Newton, I'm going to kill him."
A/N What do you think Edward will do now
