I think I forgot this in the last few chapters but I don't own Twilight or Edward o r Carlisle.
Oh and anything italicized and in quotes is another person's thoughts that Edward is hearing. Sorry but I thought that it should change POV'S between Carlisle and Edward. If you don't like it like this tell me. Okay?
Chapter 9 New Life
E POV
When I awoke I was engulfed in a room of absolute darkness, yet I could see everything perfectly. I could see a man. He was standing over me.
"Edward, how do you feel?" "I hope he's fine. He was awfully sick. Maybe he died."
"Who are you? I'm not dead. Am I?" I was scared. I had never been here before. Who was this man?
"He's fine. So the transformation worked."
"What transformation. What are you taking about? Where am I?"
"I never told him about his transformation." "Edward, how did you know about your transformation?"
"You told me," he did tell me. I heard him say it.
"Edward I never said that."
"Yes you did. I heard you say it."
"Hmm." "Edward can you hear me think this?"
"Yes. What's going on?"
"Edward I never said anything about you're transformation. I was thinking. Just like I am now."
" I can hear what you are thinking?"
"Apparently."
This was incredible. I had always know what other people where thinking, not their exact words. Just a general idea. This was amazing. But there was one question left unasked. "Where am I? Who are you? What are you? What am I?" okay so really there where four questions but who cares?
"Edward I'm going to tell you something. You might not believe me, but I have to tell you." "Edward you're a vampire."
"I'm a vampire?"
"Yes. Edward how do you feel?"
"Thirsty" and I was. So thirsty.
"Well then Edward. Let's hunt!"
Hunt what? "Hunt what?"
"Oh food. Blood. But not human blood. Animal blood."
"Animal blood? Why?"
"Would you rather go out and eat someone else?"
"No."
"Then animal blood it is."
C POV
Edward and I walked through tunnels avoiding all human contact. I knew how unbearable human scent was when you where hungry. Especially to a newborn. I didn't want to take any chances. When we reached the woods Edward imminently smelled blood and ran. I knew how fast newborns were, but he seemed faster. A lot faster. After a while I was struggling to keep up with him and had to wait until he caught his prey to even attempt to locate him.
When I arrived, Edward was fighting a mountain lion. He was obviously winning.
"Edward, save some for me," Edward unleashed a growl that would have made any other person want to crawl in a hole and die. But this was his first hunt so I didn't go far to search for my own prey. I hadn't hunted for three days because I felt like I had to stay with Edward during his transformation. Three days was a long time. But not unbearable because of my centuries of endurance.
When I returned, Edward was sitting on the ground. He appeared to be waiting for me.
"Have a nice hunt?" I thought.
"Yes. Quite," he answered seemingly very happy and content with his hunt.
"That's very good Edward. Now, you have some rules you need to follow."
"Rules?"
"Yes. For one, you cannot, under any circumstances, be near any human."
"Because I'll eat them?"
"Yes. Exactly," "wow, he catches on fast."
"Yes I do thank you," he said with a smile on his face. So he could hear all my thoughts?
"Apparently," he said still smiling. "This could be an issue."
"How so?" he seemed very tense at this thought because he stood up and was almost touching my nose at the same instant.
"Well..." I said not sure what to say.
"Carlisle, why?"
"Well, what if I think something I don't want you to hear?"
"Well then you would just think, 'Edward pretend you didn't hear that' and I won't."
"That seems fair enough."
"I do catch on fast you know," he said repeating my exact words with a smile.
"Very funny Edward. But do not take these rules lightly. You must obey them. Understand?"
"Yes. Of course."
"Good. Now, follow me," I walked him back to my house. I needed to pack my things because we were leaving. I went over the plans in my head so that Edward would know what we were doing.
"Edward, do you want me to get anything for you from your house?" I thought.
"No. I'm fine. So we're going to Alaska?" he said quickly changing the subject.
"Yes I have some friends there, and besides, Alaska is a good place for newborns. Very far away from humans, but with abundant animal life for meals."
"Huh," was all he could say. "I suppose you don't know what to expect of Alaska."
"Oh, that's not why I'm hesitant. It's because they females worry me, one in particular. Tanya, She seems too...flirtatious for my liking."
"I understand what you mean."
"Thank you for understanding. So, Denali it is."
"Yes Edward. To Denali," and with that, we went.
