A/N: I have nothing to say… so I won't.

I had always loved Isle Esme. It was a private island my Dad owned. I had only been here a few times, but it was just beautiful.

I excitedly grabbed Jasper's hand and pulled him towards the small house on the island. Jasper followed after me, taking in the island surroundings.

"Carlisle," Jasper called. Dad came over. "When would you like to do this?"

Dad swallowed before answering "As soon as possible."

Jasper turned to me. "I'm going to take Carlisle to the other side of the island towards the end of his change, so he's not anywhere near any of you. When I do, I want you to make sure everyone stays in the house."

I nodded. "Okay."

Jasper led Dad a little ways away while everyone else gathered in the house. Mom was nervously glancing at the door now and then.

"Trust that Jazz won't make a mistake," I told Mom from my position lying on the couch. I was in pain myself from the baby.

We all heard the scream.

Mom shot up, her eyes widening in horror. Bella clutched Renesmee to her, trying to quiet her crying.

Jasper returned a little later. He brought my writhing and clawing father to one of the beds in the house. Mom nervously flitted along behind him.

Jasper came and sat by my head. I scooted up to lay my head on his lap. "Hey."

His frown deepened. "Hey."

"Kinda hard?"

He sighed, shaking his head. "It reminds me of the armies."

I grabbed his hand and held it close to my chest, offering him a small smile. "I'm sorry."

Jasper laughed humorlessly. "It's not your fault."

I couldn't help feeling deep down that it was. Jasper quickly changed my guilt to happiness.

Two days later, Dad was on the other side of the island, a new vampire. Today would have been Mom's change, but she was sick and even too tired to get out of bed. Even though that wouldn't matter, she insisted on being turned after she was better. Therefore, Edward went next.

Bella rocked Renesmee back and forth, her eyes locked on the window. Rosalie and Emmett were somewhere else in the house and Mom was in bed. Jasper was changing Edward and Dad was still on the other side of the island.

"Alice," Bella whispered, bringing my attention to her.

"What?" I also whispered.

"I really want to be after Edward, but I feel like it's wrong to leave Renesmee defenseless. I can't take care of her while I'm a blood thirsty monster."

"I could."

Bella shook her head, closing her eyes. "As much as I love and trust you Ali, I want to take care of her myself as long as possible. I have to tell Jasper I'm going last."

I sat up on my elbows, getting a better look at her. She wouldn't look at me, but I could tell she thought Jasper would be angry. I laughed. "He won't get mad. If you're so worried, I'll tell him."

"Tell me what?" Jasper asked. He closed the door with his foot. Edward was thrashing and screaming in his arms.

Bella quickly stood up. She followed Jasper and stayed with Edward. I moved so that Jasper could sit with me. "Tell you that Bella wants to go last. She wants to care for Renesmee herself as long as possible."

Jasper's fingers ran through my hair. It was shaggier than before and I itched to re-cut it. "That's fine. That makes the order Esme, Rosalie, Emmett, Bella."

"How's Dad?"

Jasper reacted almost proudly. "He's doing very well, actually. I think he carried his compassion over into this life. It helps him with abstaining from human blood, I think."

I smiled. "That's great."

"Yeah. I can only hope the rest will be that easy."

"When can he come back?"

Jasper frowned. "A few weeks, maybe a month. I'm not putting you in danger."

"But by then they'll all be changed."

"And you'll be in more danger than ever."

We sat in silence for a while. I squeezed my eyes shut, clenching my teeth together when a sharp pain erupted in my abdomen.

"Alice?" Jasper asked worriedly.

"I'm…fine…" I gasped out, holding my stomach. "It's just a little feisty today."

His frowned from before returned.

Soon, only Bella and I were left in the house. When Jasper came for her change, she closed her eyes, sighing. She handed me Renesmee and followed Jasper out the door.

As I held Renesmee, I wondered what my baby would look like. Like Jasper, I hoped.

Bella's shrill scream rang out through the island.

I had been surprised when Jasper told me about Edward's ability to read minds.

"Great," Bella had muttered, "I'll never be able to think anything private anymore."

Mom's love and compassion had also brought over. Emmett and Rosalie were pretty much normal vampires.

When Jasper returned with Bella, Renesmee stretched out an arm, whimpering.

"Shh Ness, Mommy will be back soon enough," I murmured.

Dad was the first to come back. I was shocked by the difference in his appearance. He had been young for the father of three married women before, but he looked even younger now. His red eyes disturbed and revolted me, but I said nothing.

"Hi Daddy," I said brightly.

"Hello baby girl," Dad said, offering me a hug. Jasper growled a low warning, but I stood and hugged my cold, hard father.

"How are you?" I asked, pulling back and picking up a sleeping Renesmee.

"The world is amazing and your husband scares the crap out of me. Have you seen those scars?"

I chuckled. "Yeah. I knew about them even before we started dating."

"Bella and Edward would like to know how their baby is."

I gestured to Renesmee. "Sleepy, but fine."

"And how's your baby?"

I groaned, sinking into my seat. "A spirited one, that's for sure."

"As it broken any bones? Changed any of you habits?" He inspected me with his eyes.

"I think I might have quite a few bruises, but other than that…" I glanced down at my shirt, curious now. I tentatively lifted the hem slightly. A sharp gasp came from not only me, but Dad and Jasper. My skin was marked by multiple deep purple marks. "Well, that explains that."

"You should be lying down," Dad chastised, ushering me back to the couch.

He went back later to be with Mom, but promised he would be back tomorrow to check on me.

Eventually, everyone was back in the house. Jasper was constantly guarding me. Bella had demanded I keep Renesmee with me so that she wouldn't be tempted.

Bella had been delighted to find that she was the only one who Edward couldn't read the mind of. Edward constantly tried breaking through, but he couldn't. This led Jasper to suspect Bella had powers beyond normal, like he and Edward.

I was extremely pregnant by now and in so much pain. I had broken a few ribs and had a strange hankering for blood.

To reasons unknown to everyone, Dad had had all his doctor stuff here, including blood. Human blood.

"I wanted to be prepared," he explained, "if it's half vampire, then it will want blood logically."

They were all so beautiful, especially Rosalie. I wanted to gauge my eyes out when I saw her. That way, I wouldn't have to feel ugly looking at her perfection.

So, here I sat, on Isle Esme with my family as vampires and my vampire husband with a cup of blood resting on my stomach, which held a vampire's baby. Hmm, who would have ever thought?

It came to me unexpectedly.

"Jazz!" I cried, my eyes widening when it hit me.

He turned to me, worry clearly written on his face. "What's wrong Alice?"

"The unknown Aro was talking about. It must have been the baby. I mean, have you ever heard of a half vampire, half human baby? It was always going to happen. And that means I live."

Jasper seemed to be thinking about my logic. When he spoke, it was slowly. "I think…you might be right."

I stuck my tongue out at him. "Told you."

"There's still hope for Alice?" Rosalie asked, frowning.

I bit my lip to stop myself from yelling at her. "Looks like it," Jasper said hardly.

I hated myself for hating Rosalie. She was my sister. But I think I knew that this woman was no longer my sister. The Rosalie we all knew and loved was gone forever.
