I really should slap myself in the face. I completely forgot about this story and its been years since I posted it. If anyone is still reading, forgive me. Oh, and all characters and such from Twilight belong to Stephanie Meyers. I still crave criticism, so please help me out. I do want to improve my writing!

While remembering the entire day that came before, my thoughts wandered to everyone's current mood. Emmett and Bella were utterly confused, Edward and Carlisle frustrated,

Esme's concerned more than usual, Jasper was visibly scared, and Renesmee is trying to stay out of it all together which Edward and Bella will make sure happen. Rosalie... oh...

Rosalie! Acting as if she was going to kill me. Telling me I was an idiot for even getting myself into this mess (which I still don't know how any of this happened), but I knew she

wasn't angry because of that, she wasn't even angry... just boiling over with jealousy. She wanted so bad to be human again and now I am becoming human.

I couldn't stop the recent memories, all of them made me feel hollow inside. The edges of my heart stung to where it brought tears to my eyes, everyone found it amazing that I had

cried so much in such a small amount of time. My eyes were red around the edges, not much but still visible. My sobs were louder than before, pretty soon I wont be able to control it

and my stifled coughs and whimpers will turn into agonizing wailing. That would definitely send Jasper over the edge into desperation.

I guess you would say that I am lucky, well if having your entire body shudder and tremble every time you try to move and have a hollow emptiness in your torso makes you happy

then go ahead and say it. I just want everything to be normal again. No hybrids, no reversing vampire venom, especially no jealous Rosalie who doesn't even know how I feel right

now, and no pain. At least not physical. Cause my body ached and burned in every direction, every minute that passes by feels like years and years of torture that is finally healing.

The worst part about this entire thing? My blood is rancid, so there is a good possible chance that I may die immediately after the phase it complete.

"Maybe suicide doesn't seem that bad anymore. Am I human enough to actually die?"

I regretted thinking that as soon as Edward sat down on the other side of me. Esme had not moved from her spot with her arm still around the tiny vampire.

"Don't you dare think anything of that, It won't do anyone any good." His voice was of the lowest whispers.

I looked over to Esme, bad idea, I then had to look away from her worried eyes. I didn't want to see that, her agonized look, I'd rather face Rosalie and her anger. Which I think I'm

about to receive in mere seconds.

"ALICE!" she screamed as she came through the door. I didn't even so much as cringe at her words because I already saw it coming.

Edward and even Esme shot a cold stare at the intruding vampire. Then Esme spat out the most vile thing I have ever heard come out of her mouth, which startled not only me but

Edward and the now appearing Carlisle.

"Rosalie, I don't give a care of what you are about to say. Get your ass out of this room and leave your sister alone. Don't you see she is in pain! Go be a bitch somewhere else."

Rosalie, Carlisle, Edward, and I gaped at Esme. We were in total shock and Rosalie shut her mouth and walked out of the room with a bewildered expression on her face. Possibly

either embarrassed or in to much shock to do anything else for the rest of the night. Motherly Esme... what has happened here?

The next day...

I was still sitting on the piano bench, mainly because I never really bothered to get up and do anything and I guess Renesmee wanted to take advantage of the placid aura of the

room and come sit by me.

"Auntie Alice?"

I shifted myself to where I was sitting on one leg, facing Renesmee. The only little thing I could say without breaking down was a simple "Yes?"

She let the silence consume us for about a minute or two. "I was wondering, since you have been sitting here all day, that the both of us could go down to La Push and spend some

time with Jacob, Seth, and Leah."

There was another pause of silence. "Okay..."

"So articulate for a toddler..."

I picked up Renesmee and told her parents that we were going to visit the werewolves, oddly enough they seemed to have known already. Oh wait... Edward could read minds. Why

the hell can't I remember anything anymore!

I hate it when I forget things, It reminds me of this transformation I'm going through.

So into the Porsche and down to La Push we go, where we met Jacob waiting for us on his front porch with the other two inside. So this was planned? I should have known.

The one unnerving part about coming here at 4:15 pm was that Leah was the first to greet me. Not Jacob (who was too busy cuddling Renesmee), and not Seth who was the first

werewolf to want to be our friend, but Leah.

"Hey Alice!" She half sung. Leah isn't ever this cheery... is she?

I really had no intention of talking to anyone but to avoid being shrewd I greeted her back with a fake smile.

The smile that was imprinted on her face melted into a line. "Things not going so well over at the house of bloods?"

I guess I wasn't as happy as I had tried to sound.

"To tell you the truth Leah, I think I needed some air. Which I should thank Renesmee for."

The tiny girl looked over to me from Jacob's arms and gave me the cutest crooked smile I've ever seen in my life. I really couldn't help but smile because even Edward couldn't pull that one off.

I was literally dragged inside by Leah and greeted by the rest of the pack. I really had no idea how loud boys could be until now. Quil, Embry, Paul, and Jared were all wrestling on the

floor. Which explained why I heard a sudden crash in the other room. Bill, Emily, and Sam were sitting around the table just talking like there was nothing out of the ordinary going on.

Jacob leaned on the counter with Renesmee perched on his head.

Seth, for a reason no one could comprehend, jumped out of the window and a few seconds later jumped back in through the window. The funny thing was though, Quil was in a head lock with Jared and Embry was on Jared's back and Paul on top of him, they all froze in place staring at Seth. (Who by the way was laughing to the point of tears.)

The much awkward silence was broken by Leah. "What the heck was that all about?"

"Distraction" Seth replied as he tried to recover from his fit of laughter.

"Distraction from what?" Jacob asked but was about to pounce Quil.

"From this." Seth jumped Quil right after Jacob.

"Oh, my. You are clearly insane." I thought to myself.

"Why thank you." Seth smiled.

Well, I though I had kept that to myself.

"Alice?"

I turned my head to Leah. "hm?"

"Follow me."

The both of us went upstairs and as we were walking I noticed that Leah still had the cast on her leg. Although it wasn't the same bandages as we had put on her yesterday

afternoon, they still looked slightly bloody. My dead heart which I could feel since my transformation, beat heavily in my chest...

Upstairs...

"I don't understand." My exasperation was up to new heights.

"Its simple Alice." Leah waved the letter in my face.

"No, no it is not simple." My newly clumsy hands grasped the letter and I flinched when I heard a very large crash downstairs. It sounded as if Seth had been thrown out of the

window.

"Just read and don't tell anyone that I have this." Her arms were crossed. She looked nervous.

I looked down and tried to read with as little distraction as possible. Between my annoying heart and the loudness downstairs, it was difficult.

"Good day Miss Leah Clearwater and Mrs. Alice Cullen.

The both of you should already be aware that your bodies are transforming gradually, we are pleased to see that the antidote is succeeding thus so far and hope that you will survive

the last stage of the cure. Soon, to be a vampire or a werewolf will be optional and not an incurable disease. We shall grace you with our presence once you are separated from the damnation

that tie you both down to the mythic tales that children read at night.

With Sincerity,

The Society"

"It's typed."

Leah cocked her head to the side. "Yeah, and what's your point?"

"They know we could track them if they hand wrote it."

"I'm not an idiot. I am well aware of that." Her head straightened.

"And there is no smell."

"I don't even have my sensitive smell anymore so that wouldn't even help."

"But you want to keep this a secret."

"Yes, from everyone but my brother."

"Ah, okay. So Seth will help us track these people down?"

"Yes but he has to stay away from Edward, Jasper, and keep from shifting into a wolf. It would defeat the entire purpose."

"I can do that."

"Explain."

"I will keep Edward and Jasper's attention on me, I know how to hide my thoughts from Edward and Jasper will flip at any distress I feel. It will be very easy."

"Perfect, and both Seth and I will keep from shifting."

"One other question."

"I don't know who or what the Society is."

"Oh? Now you are the psychic? You've stolen my job. " My joke was purposefully flat and sarcastic.

Then noticed something wrong about Leah's facial expression. She turned towards the door quickly and then it opened... slowly... eerily.

Seth then popped into the room batman style without warning.

"Damn it Seth! You wanna give me a damn heart attack?" Leah's voice was loud enough to vibrate off the walls.

"Yeah, really." I had both hands on my chest.

Seth laughed and then pulled the both of us into a huddle. "When?"

Leah looked at me then back at Seth. "As soon as possible. Preferably before we turn completely."

Yes, it is a short chapter but I assure you, I plan to update this story frequently in the new year. Oh, and I have had to edit and upload this chapter way too many times due to something wacky going on with the bold text and then the spacing wasn't saving (I am about to give up about the spacing). It kept turning my entire chapter bold even though the live preview in the upload manager did not pick it up. So for those of you who subscribed to this story, if you got several emails stating that the new chapter is out then I am very sorry.
