Thank you all for the great reviews. I'm sorry I've been MIA. But I'm still quite ill. I've been in the hospital for a few days but now I'm home. The doctors told me to take it easy for a few more weeks and I'll be fine. Now home, I sat down and I can't believe the amount of support for my stories. It's been amazing, you're all angels. So I'll take me a while to get chapters out, but relax, I'm already outlining the chapters to come.

CurrentlyBlack – It might not be the only side effect… Maybe something will happen to Edward… We will see.

Mizzrazz72 – You are so right.

jpz101 – Should have known better alright.

HibaTsu-Lover – His future is different, a future based on lies. I can't wait to see his face when he finds out.

AnimeBook's – Thank you so much, I still feel like crap, I'm stuck in bed for a while now due to the doctos meds, so I'll have time to write until I get back on my feet. I'm thinking yes, they have nothing against her. They're also working on the potion for Emmett and Rosalie, so they have nothing against the Cullens anymore. They've grown and matured. They probably think it's an odd vampire pregnancy, I'm sure it'll get more serious when they find out it was a pregnancy caused by dark magic.

jgood27 – Thank you.

Hickory – I'm thinking about that since we're getting close to the pregnancy being revealed to the everyone, outside of the Cullen family, and close to the HOW the pregnancy happened. I'm not sure if Bella will survive, I'm having doubts about that. I am thinking of giving Edward a happy ending. I think he's suffered enough up to now. Maybe a new mate is waiting for him…? Someone troubled and wounded who needs love and companionship, someone who needs a family badly. I'm thinking of that…

Gea Mari – Thank you, like I said, I'm stuck in bed, doctors orders, so I have time to kill and writing is the answer. Jajaja. It was a small bite I know yes. A lot will happen in this chapter.

Seth Clearwater – Yes it was a love/fertility potion made with dark magic. It'll have some side effects on Edward, for a while I think, before his story changes, hopefully for the better. We'll see…

ShadowWolf15846 – I feel for him too. I think eventually his story will get better. Don't feel that for Bella though.

rmiser1994 – Thank you. Read on. lol

Guest – Here it is!

***Hi guys. Again, thank you so much for the kind words of support. I'm still under the weather but I promise I'll try to upload ASAP. Enjoy the chapter.***

RING RING RING.

"Hello." answered Carlisle.

"Carlisle, you have to come, quick." cried Bella. Everyone in the house was on alert. Esme was by his side.

"Bella?" said Carlisle. "What's wrong?"

"It's Edward." said Bella. "We were watching TV about to go to bed and he just collapsed!"

"Where are you?" asked Carlisle, rushing in a blur getting his medical bag.

"We're at the cabin." cried Bella.

Emmett and Esme were already starting up the car. "We'll be right there!"

10 minutes later the black Mercedes pulled up in a secluded little cottage deep in the woods. In moments all the vampires were in the house. Bella on the floor, crying her eyes out, with Edwards head on her lap.

"What happened?" asked Carlisle. Using all the medical examinations he knew to treat vampires.

"We were watching TV, then we got ready for bed, we started making out and then he started convulsing."

"Convulsing?" asked Esme.

Bella nodded. "Then he took a big gulp of breath and went dead limp…"

"Carlisle?" asked Alice.

"He's in shock." said Carlisle.

Jasper looked up. "In shock? From what?"

Carlisle shook his head. "I have no idea…"

Rosalie turned to Alice. "Didn't you get a vision?"

"Alice?" asked Emmett.

Alice shook her head. "No… Nothing. It was as if something was blocking my visions…and still is."

"What do we do?!" cried Bella.

"I have no idea." said Carlisle. "I think it best to take you both home. I don't think it wise to leave you two out here in the forest. Especially with Edward like this."

Six hours later, Carlisle managed to brew up some strong smelling salts, again which he tweeked in his office, to benefit vampires. Swishing it under Edwards nose the vampire started coming around.

"What…What happened?" asked Edward.

"I was hoping you could tell us son." said Carlisle. "Bella said you fainted."

"Bella…" Edward smiled with a dreamy look on his face. "My Bella…"

Everyone was shocked. "Excuse me?" asked Rosalie.

"She's so wonderful." Said Edward. His smile faded and looked around. "Where is she? Is she ok?!" he asked hysterically.

"Yes." said Esme. "She's right here…" She waved to Bella to come closer.

Edward saw her, jumped up from the couch and wrapped her in a tight loving embrace. "You're safe!" Bella nodded, Edward smelled her hair. "You're so beautiful. We're together!" he sighed before leaned in and kissed her.

"What the hell is going on?" asked Emmett.

Alice turned to Carlisle. "Father?"

"I have no idea Alice." said Carlisle. "I have no idea…"

The vampires watched the eerie love moment between Edward and Bella, thinking what to do next. "I'll never leave you, ever again." said Edward.

Carlisle and Esme were happily confused, the rest were seemed to be glad but were very worried at this odd turn of events.

Rosalie decided to try something. "Well guys, give yourselves one big hug cause we're leaving in ten minutes."

"Leaving?" asked Edward. "Where?"

The Cullens looked at each other. "Don't you know Ed?" asked Emmett. "It's the Cullen Kids Annual Camping Trip. We take it every year on Thanksgiving."

"Don't you remember?" asked Jasper.

"Yeah…" stuttered Edward. "I can't Bella needs me here."

"Edward, if you're feeling better, go on your trip." said Bella.

"No." said Edward. "I insist. My place is here with you. Always."

'Get your bags you guys.' thought Rosalie to her other siblings Emmett, Alice and Jasper did what they were told. She turned back to her parents, Edward and Bella and smiled. "Well then you four take care of each other. We will see you on Sunday afternoon."

"Have a good trip dears." said Esme. "Be good."

"We will." Smiled Rosalie. The Cullen kids said their farewells and left.

Halfway out of town and into the mountains, in Emmett's jeep they turned to Rosalie. "Are you crazy?" asked Alice.

"Jasper what did you feel from Edward back there?" asked Rosalie. The car was quiet.

"I got, love, lust and passion." said Jasper. "But it felt odd, like he was high and the feelings were increased by a million percent. Like he was drugged…"

"I wanted to talk alone just the four of us. Away from Edwards ears and away from is telepathic powers." said Rosalie nodded. "So I'm not the only one who feels this is not normal. That something is happening, something not good."

The car was silent. "No Rose." said Emmett. "You're not…" The car remained quiet as they drove through the night.

The following afternoon, around 4:30pm, Harry, Luna, Seth, Caleb and the children met Jacob and Paul outside Blackpine Cottage, it was a cold, autumn/winter afternoon. They were ready for the party. Jacob, in a fine white button shirt and fine navy blue dinner pants and Paul in a black V neck sweater under a black dinner jacket and pants looked at their mates and were so proud. Harry was in a red turtleneck sweater, under a grey dinner jacket pants and good fine shoes. Caleb wore a brown silk shirt under a black vest and black pants and shoes. Both men had their rings on. Luna wore a pale grey dress, a white high collar wool jacket with a suit of pearls.

"Are we overdressed?" asked Harry. Both he and Jacob smiled remembering their first time when they met for the movies outside the FORKSTREE INN.

"Again…You're perfect." said Jacob.

Harry smiled. "You remember?"

"How could I forget." grinned Jacob with a wink. Harry blushed, turning Jacob's grin into a smile.

Caleb walked over to Paul who just said. "Wooow!"

"Thanks." said Caleb. "I hope this is ok. I mean this is the first time we meets the council."

"They will…" stated Paul checking his fiancé up and down with hungry eyes. "Love you." And bit his lower lip.

"I'm grateful." said Caleb walked over and gave him a warm kiss, the wolf melted into his arms. "I'll show you just how grateful later on tonight…" He whispered, making Paul growl.

"Boys…Come on." said Luna. "Behave."

Paul and Caleb blushed. "Sorry." They said in unison.

"Come on we'll be late." said Luna. As the gang walked to the car, she smiled at Seth. He wore a white button shirt with dark blue dinner pants. "You look good."

Seth smiled, blushing. "Thank you."

They got to Jacob's truck and noticed they weren't going to fit in it. "What now?" asked Jacob.

"Honestly…" said Caleb. "Harry do the honors please."

Harry took out his wand, waved it over the truck chanting. "EXPANDIO LOCOMOTOR." A flash of light burst from is wand, wrapping around the car for a brief moment before fading into nothing.

"Paul…If you please love…" said Caleb.

Paul walked over, opened the door and screamed. "No way!" Jacob and Seth ran over to see what Harry had done. They all gasped, the entire back side of the car was like a limousine; comfortable with long spacious seats. They all turned back to Harry.

"Don't worry." said Harry. "The car will look just normal on the outside, but on the inside it's a…"

"A limmo." smiled Paul.

"Right!" said Caleb. "Now… Everyone inside." He turned to Jacob. "Jake you drive."

"But I wanna ride in the back." whined Jacob, clearly as a joke. Everyone laughed.

"Sorry…It's your car, you drive." Commanded Caleb. "Now come one. I'm hungry!"

"So am I." said said Harry.

During the ride Seth turned to Luna, Caleb and Harry. The kids were asleep, Julian in Caleb's arms and Caspian in Seth's arms. "Are you guys nervous about meeting the council?"

"A little?" said Caleb. "I mean, I don't know how they feel about having two of their wolves engaged with a werecat and a siren." He felt Paul grip him tight.

"Everything will be fine babe." said Paul. "They already know about you."

"How?" asked Harry, from the front passenger seat, where he was holding Jacob's hand.

"Our dads talked to them about you guys." said Seth.

"And Luna too of course." added Paul. "And the kids of course."

"I'll be fine." Luna smiled. "We're gonna have some dinner!" she exclaimed all excitedly.

"Where are we going?" asked Caleb.

"Quileute Valley." said Paul.

"What's that?" asked Harry.

Paul turned to him. "It's a sacred place for our tribe. It's where the Quileutes Indians had the first Thanksgiving feast here in California in the 1600s."

"Really?!" asked Harry. "How fascinating!"

Paul had the entire cars attention as he started telling the story. Having Harrys attention on Paul, Jacob focused on the road and the landscape. His wolf noticed something odd was happening. Yes, it was fall, one step away from winter, but part of the forest seemed…dead. Not dry and asleep like in snowy white winter but… dead. 'What is going on?' he thought.

Harry turned to his fiancé for a moment, following his eyes and noticed the greenery too and gasped. He had a sinking feeling deep in his gut that something was wrong. Even his magic sensed something was off, but he decided to not say anything until he had proof of his suspicions. Turning his head, he was sure Luna definitely noticed, she being a fairy, he could tell she tried to hide it. She was worried.

***Hi guys. I'm sorry if it's shorter than expected, but I tried. I think it was short but very very sweet and interesting… What's happening in the Oympic Forest? Could it be natural or supernatural? Could it be linked to the illnesses going around town? Hmmm? …..I decided I'm thinking of NOT doing a 3rd experimental story and just leave ELYSUIM and LOTUS OF THE NIGHT as that: the two experimental stories like two sides of a coin…. Now, there's just a few things I'd like to run by you and please feel free to voice your opinions on your reviews as well as your thoughts on this chapter….. I'm working on two new series of stories, two new Harry Potter crossovers with no Twilight. Honestly, I feel Harry and the gang have had enough of Forks in ELYSUIM and LOTUS OF THE NIGHT. I want to take them to other supernatural towns and see what happens. So I'm announcing here and now that Harry and the gang –Hermione, Draco and our OC pal Caleb – will be headed for 1) Mystic Falls and 2) Beacon Hills…. Can't wait to read your reviews on this chapter + please, if you want, leave your thoughts on these two new journeys that Harry will take in the future.***
