*Jasper*

I sat in silence whilst Esme, Bella and Edward sat in living room around me. Emmett had taken Rosalie to 'look after her'. It seemed to take hours for Carlisle to return, and when he did, I stood up instantly. Edward stood up too; his eyes fixed on me, and ready to stop me if I tried anything. That wasn't what I had in mind. I watched as he carried Jemima into the house, and took her upstairs.

"Jemima..." I said quietly, her screams echoed through the house.

Now that I knew she was here, I found it easier to speak. I turned to address the room in general, "Where is Alice?"

The room was silent for a moment, until Bella spoke, "Alice has gone."

I turned to her, my expression must have been aggressive for Edward moved to stand protectively over his wife. Impatiently, Bella pushed him away, "She saw you meeting the human, and decided to leave,"

I was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

"She said that she understood, and that she thought it would be better if she just left."

I sat down in shock, "My...Alice is gone,"

Bella shook her head, her expression sad, "She said she'll keep in touch, and that it's better this way."

My mouth opened and closed in shock. Alice is gone...Alice is gone...and it's my fault.

Jemima's screams filled the silence.

Esme was looking in the direction of the top of the staircase, concern written on her motherly face. She glanced at me with warm, honey-coloured eyes, and said quietly, "Can't you help her?"

My eyes narrowed in confusion, before I realized what she meant. I let out my powers, and it took me nearly no time at all to find the loud emotions that Jemima was letting off. I tried hard to relax her, but her screaming emotions were too much for me.

"I can't..." I gasped, before shouting, "I can't! I can't help her!"

I put my face in my hands. Why? Why did I have to ruin everything? Alice is gone, Jemima is upstairs going through the worst pain she'd ever experience, and I've tasted human blood again. A shiver ran through my body as I imagined the blood. Her taste. A feral growl escaped my lips, before Edward pinned me down. His hands pushed my shoulders back onto the chair, and he braced himself, keeping me down. I hissed, but the thoughts of her blood slowly left.

Edward soon realized that I wasn't a threat anymore, and he slowly pulled away. I nodded at him in thanks, and he nodded back, still angry at me because I'd lost him his favourite sister.

"Edward," I said, grabbing his wrist. He looked uncomfortable, but I continued, "I cannot make up for what I've done, I know that, but I want you to know how sorry I am. I did not want this."

Edward looked at me for a long time in silence, before finally, he nodded, "I know,"

Suddenly, I remembered the wolves. I didn't particularly like any of them, but that didn't mean I wanted to hurt them.

"The wolves...did I..." I was afraid to ask.

Edward shook his head, "They all survived, but they're angry. We're lucky they let us get back here safely," He closed his eyes. I knew how he had become close to some of them, "I'm surprised that they haven't come to slaughter us yet,"

Edward shared a look with his mate, and they both looked in the direction of their cottage, where Renesmee was waiting.

I knew that the wolves would spare them, especially as one was to be mated with Bella's child. But that meant nothing for the rest of us.

None of the family moved for a long time after that. The thought of Jemima's mother crossed my mind, but I decided quickly that I didn't want to think about that woman. I'd worry about her later...when Jemima had changed.

Another shiver ran down my spine at the thought of Jemima as a vampire, and I couldn't help become a little excited at the thought of her being like me.

Edward growled a little at my excitement, and I quickly thought, Sorry.

Her eyes...I gasped suddenly, realizing that I'd never see her beautiful eyes again. I stood up, making sure to send a physic message to Edward to let him know what I was doing. He looked uncertain, but he didn't try and stop me as I ran up the stairs.
