Alice Cullen POV
Crap. Crap, crap, crap. Why didn't I get that vision sooner? We could've probably stopped it! Why does Bella have to get herself into things like this? Why did I get a vision of Bella anyway? I haven't had one of her in months… it's all my fault…
Edward Cullen POV
Oh, Bella, my sweet angel Bella… why can't she just have a normal human life? And what's the House Of Night anyways? We heard it was a vampyre school but… we still don't really know what it is…
Carlisle Cullen POV
House of Night… hmmm… I wonder if I read about it before? And maybe there's a way to reverse that changing that Bella went through… what was it called? Being… Marked? Yeah, that's it… Marked…
"That's it!" Edward said looking at me. What's it Edward? I asked him through my thoughts.
"We should look up what this House of Night is!" He said almost giddy. "And then we can try to reverse whatever happened to Bella!" Now he was giddy.
"That won't work." Rosalie said in a bored voice.
"And why not? You just don't like Bella! You're selfish and pig-headed!" Edward snapped at her.
"She's right Edward, it won't work. Didn't you hear what Nyx said? If Bella isn't around adult vampyres then she could die. And it won't be a pretty death either." Alice replied to Edward.
"Well," I started out, "Maybe we could try to do some research on this 'House of Night'?" I finished asking everyone.
"Sure. Hey do you think it would be on 'Google'? 'Cause it is a school and all." All of turned our shocked faces to Emmett.
"What? I have my moments!" He said clearly defending himself.
"Ohmygod… my husband actually has something in his head…" Rosalie with probably the most shock out of all of us.
"Actually, that might very well work…" I drifted off in my own shock still thinking, Emmett has a brain… He is actually more than dumb minded… Holy-
"Well come ON! What are we waiting for? We've got research to do!" Edward said insanely impatient.
"Alright, Jasper and Edward, you look on 'Google', for 'House of Night', Rosalie and Emmet, look on 'Google', for 'Goddess Nyx', Alice, you see if you can get anymore visions, and Esme, you help me with my books to see if there is any information in there for anything that might be useful." I said in my business-like voice.
With that said, everyone started off to there respective tasks.
Jasper Hale POV
Edward and I were on 'Google' of all research sites looking up the 'House of Night' and at first not finding much except for these websites from 'People of Faith' who worship God 24/7. (A/n: Not that there's anything wrong with that if you do that. I'm just describing the people from the book)
Finally, after what seemed like hours I finally found something.
Hey Edward, come look at this.
"Yeah?" he said back while walking over to my computer.
It turns out that there are 5 other House of Nights around the world.
"Well, that's great and all, but look for the one in Tulsa, Oklahoma." He said.
Alright then.
So I Googled up 'House of Night, Tulsa Oklahoma', and found a search.
Here it is Edward, it says (A/n: most of this part is from the book) what is known today as the House of Night, was built in the neo-French-Norman style, with stones imported from Europe. It originated in the mid-1920s as an Augustine monastery for the People of Faith. Eventually it was converted in Cascia Hall, a private preparatory school for affluent human teenagers. It was bought out 5 years ago by the vampyres so that they can make another school. News reports say that the students who went to Cascia Hall had been busted out for drugs.
"Alright, so we got the history of how it came to be that school, but what does it say about the school?" He asked.
"Well, classes take place at night from 8:00-3:00 am. So really hours are flipped. Weird." I said
"Very." Edward agreed with me.
"Cats are allowed to roam free on school grounds, and there are rituals." I finished.
"What kind of rituals?" Edward asked, I could tell he was a bit worried.
Edward Cullen POV
Rituals? What kind of rituals?
"What kind of rituals?" I asked my question out loud.
Well, rituals for there Goddess I'm guessing. It doesn't really say, maybe Rose and Emmett found something. Jasper answered through his thoughts.
And right at that moment Emmett came to my thoughts, Hey, Eddie, we got it!
Rosalie Hale POV
We were looking up information of the 'Goddess' for Edward so that we know what's going on with his precious Bella. I like Bella maybe, but she was willing to give up her humanity for this! I'd never give up my humanity if I had a choice, but I guess this curse is what led me to Emmett and I'm happy for that. So I probably wouldn't change anything if given the choice.
Anyway, back to the task at hand, looking up the 'Goddess'…
Nope.
Nothing.
Next.
N- yes!
The Goddess Nyx is known by many names, Changing Women, Gaea, A'akuluujjusi, Kuan Yin, Grandmother Spider, and Dawn…
Alright, so she's known by many different names… is there anything else?
It is believed that Nyx is the Vampyre Goddess, but in truth, it was the ancient Greeks touched by the change who first worshipped her as the mother they searched for within their endless Night. The new vampyres who Changed are called her children.
Huh. That's it. Well, that's definitely not a lot. Oh, well, still information is information.
"Hey Em, I got something here." I said to him while turning in my chair.
Emmett quickly read over the information (who knew he could?) and most likely called to Edward who was down here not even a second later.
Edward then read it over and disappeared back into the other study with Jasper. Probably found something good again.
Esme Cullen POV
Sigh. I can't find anything in Carlisle's books. I've already been through 20 books all at vampire speed too. I wonder how the kids are doing…
"Hey, did you find anything yet?" Carlisle asked.
"No. I've already been through 20 of your books and I still haven't found anything." I replied a bit depressed.
"Maybe the kids found something?" He questioned.
"Kids." He said in a normal voice.
Edward Cullen POV
I went to the study where Rose and Emmett were studying on the Goddess Nyx because Emmet said that they got something for me to look at.
I got down there and quickly read over the information and when I finished Jasper called me back up to our study.
"Yeah, Jasper?" I asked when I got back up there. "What is it?"
"I found something that may or may not, well probably not, make you feel better." He said sounding like he was choosing his words carefully.
"Ok," I said slowly, "what is it?"
"I… um… uh…yeah, how 'bout you read it for yourself?" He said, giving me the laptop.
I took the laptop and read over what he was looking at,
Scientists have been trying to figure out what causes the sequence of physical events that leads to vampyrism for years, hoping that if they could figure it out, then they could cure it, or a the very least invent a vaccine o fight against it. There have been no reports of anything turning up that good help it. So far, it is incurable.
That last word kept ringing in my head, incurable… incurable… nothing to cure it. I just couldn't believe it. I mean, sure we could have a chance, but we don't know where to start or what to do. If the human scientists maybe had a bit of a lead then maybe we would have a chance but, so far, nothing. And they've been looking this stuff up for years too.
Carlisle broke me out of my reverie and called to everyone in the house.
"Kids." He called in a normal tone of voice.
We all rushed down to the library where Carlisle, Esme and Alice were waiting.
We sat down and Carlisle started out.
"Alright, so what do we know so far? Let's start with Edward and Jasper." He said to us.
Jasper started talking, "Alright, the House of Night was made in the neo-French-Norman style, with stones imported from Europe. It originated in the mid-1920s as an Augustine monastery for the People of Faith. Eventually it was converted in Cascia Hall, a private preparatory school for affluent human teenagers. It was then bought out 5 years ago by the vampyres so that theycan make another school. News reports say that the students who went to Cascia Hall had been busted out for drugs when the school was bought out. Classes take place at night from 8:00-3:00 am, cats are allowed to roam free on school grounds, there are rituals which I am guessing are for there Goddess but it didn't say, and it turns out that there are 5 other House Of Nights around the world." Jasper concluded.
"Good, so were getting somewhere, Rosalie, Emmet, what about you?"
"Well," Rosalie said, "there wasn't much, but we did find that The Goddess Nyx is known by many names, Changing Women, Gaea, A'akuluujjusi, Kuan Yin, Grandmother Spider, and Dawn and it is believed that Nyx is the Vampyre Goddess, but in truth, it was the ancient Greeks touched by the change who first worshipped her as the mother they searched for within their endless Night. The new vampyres who Changed are called her children." Rosalie finished.
"And that Nyx is the Goddess of Night." Emmett added.
"And Alice, did you get any visions?" Esme asked.
"No," Alice replied sadly, "I didn't get anything."
"Is there anything you guys found?" Emmett asked.
"There was nothing in the books." Carlisle said depressed.
"So anything anyone would like to add to anything?" Alice piped up.
"Yeah," I said, "Scientists have been trying to figure out what causes the sequence of physical events that leads to vampyrism for years, hoping that if they could figure it out, then they could cure it, or a the very least invent a vaccine o fight against it. There have been no reports of anything turning up that good help it. So far, it is incurable." I stated solemnly.
"So there's nothing that we can do?" Rose said.
"The scientists have been at this for years Rose. If they can't find anything, then how can we?" Alice questioned with defeat in her voice.
"You know what I think?" Emmett spoke while getting up.
"You actually think Emmett?" Jasper teased.
"Yes, Jazzy-poo, I do. Sometimes, I think that we should move to Tulsa and keep an eye on Bella." He said proudly with a big grin on his face.
"You know, that's not really a bad idea…" Carlisle said trailing off.
"That's two good ideas in one day Emmett…" Esme also trailed off.
"YOU'RE RIGHT! OHMYGOD I'M SMARTICLE!" He screamed and started bouncing up and down.
"And you spoke too soon." Rose stated.
"Yup," Alice agreed, "you did."
