Alice

"Hey Emmett, come over here for a few minutes. I'm sure you'll wanna take this test," I called out, glancing over to where Emmett was sitting. He and Jasper were versing each other in some video game. Edward watched along, but I could tell he wanted to play. So I let him, Jasper needed to win a game anyways.

"A test, Alice? I mean really now. Do you think I wanna take one?" He asked back, sighing. He placed the controller on the floor and walked over to me on the couch. Sitting down, I passed the lap top to him.

I smiled. "Oh, it's not like the test you're thinking about. You answer what fits you the most and it calculates your results and tells you what jobs would most likely fit your personality. Since we are the ones going to school, it would be cool to know what we would be interested in if we worked."

I had no idea what Emmett would be if he worked. It's Emmett we're talking about. He could be anything we wanted. We had the collage scholarships, the memory, the information and especially the money. If we wanted to be famous, we could be famous! But that would be bad since people might recognize us. Taking this test, it would show us what Emmett's personality told us. He reflects his own jobs.

There wasn't much to do anyways. Bella was working and Rose was somewhere upstairs doing something. Usually, we would all be out having fun but once in a while there was a dim day. Today was one of them. I had to have some form of entertainment, and the TV just didn't cut it.

Watching Emmett's reaction would be so much more fun.

"Are you interested in activities that use tools, machines or objects, in working outside, or physical labor and using your hands?" Emmett read the questions off the page, a smile growing on his lips. Yeah, he loved that. "Heck yes!" He moved the mouse to click the 'yes' answer and went on to the next question.

"Are you interested in science and math, or finding ways to solve problems? Um, not really," he stated again. Of course Emmett wouldn't like that. I don't like to do that either. Math is great to know and all, but it could be so boring. We have no need for it, other than calculating the stock market and cash. Carlisle is really the only person in the family that uses math.

Edward might like that stuff too. But he likes to study a lot of things. Other than Carlisle, he's probably the one with the most knowledge. Before Bella came along, he studied like crazy. Edward heard my thoughts, because he looked up at me from the game and raised an eyebrow. I stuck out my tongue at him in response.

"Are you interested in creating beautiful things such as new ideas, art, music or writing?" His eyes left the screen and scanned the room. He was probably collecting his thoughts. So many things run through his mind all the time, I tend to try to stay away from his future. He's always thinking of more trouble to get into. "Sometimes, but I'm not really into writing. Music is fun and all, but really."

"You're actually taking that job quiz?" Jasper questioned, taking a look over to us. He didn't miss the turn he had to make in his car on screen while looking at us. Edward sighed in frustration. "Alice made me take that and I got some funny jobs. At least I didn't get trash collector. I would hate to do that, and I feel terrible for people that do."

I nodded my head agreeing. I feel terrible for people that actually had those jobs and had to suffer. Who knows, maybe some of them liked it. I know I wouldn't. But everyone has a job that they do, and everything has to be done. So it looks like we all work together.

Edward followed Jasper and looked up at us too. "Emmett's getting frustrated with a few of these questions. Some of them are just annoying. I mean, I can see that, but you have to answer them truthfully. If you don't, it won't exactly be the jobs they think are right for you."

"Can you use your imagination to create unique solutions, ideas or beautiful things, and design, invent or adapt ideas and things?" Emmett once again repeated off the website. "Umm...I guess? Sure then." He clicked on the 'Often' button and moved on. Yep. He was definitely getting annoyed.

But he went on reading, clicking in answers. I read along with him as he got towards the end. One of the questions mentioned something about predicting the future. I giggled. Now only if they knew...

"Do you receive and communicate ideas easily in written and spoken form or do you understand the meaning of a wide variety of words?"

"Emmett? Big words? Yeah right," Rosalie interrupted, walking down the stairs. A new magazine was gently folded in her hands. She came down and took a seat between Emmett and I. "Sorry Hunny, but I know you agree with me."

He just grinned and kissed Rose on the cheek. "I think I should be offended babe, but I do agree with you." Jasper and Edward exchanged a glance and rolled their eyes at him. Hah, looks like Emmett's getting the eye rolls now.

Finally, Emmett clicked the results button. We all waited anxiously for the page to load. It was going to narrow down the top twenty jobs that fit his interests and skills. His eyes widened in shock as the list of jobs came up that would most fit him. I glanced at the page and almost bursted into a fit of laughter.

"Tailor?"

"Pet Groomer?"

"Tile Setter?"

"What the heck is an Equine Sports Massage Therapist?"

"Cyclist?"

"Aggressive Inline Skater?" Emmett finally ended, his face forming into a mask of horror, fear, and shock. "Dude, these jobs are so weird! Who comes up with these things? I don't even know what some of these things are!" He was right. I've been a while and haven't heard a few of these on the list.

"Dude. I really hope you don't become a skater," Edward replied, mocking Emmett's voice. "You would not look good in tights."


A.N: Yes, I actually took that test. It was pretty amusing some of the things we got. My friends actually retook the test and played around with the answers and got some weird things. Some of the things I got were pretty normal like Novelist, Actor, Singer, Choreographer and what not.

So you all know that there are only four chapters left :( And I know who I am dedicating the next chapters too. But to get the next chapter dedicated to you, you have to win a contest. The contest is to design a New Moon movie poster. It can have anyone or anything in it, it just has to have the title New Moon somewhere on it. When you are done, send me a PM and I'll send you an email. Good luck!
