Well, this is it... the end! *Sobs wayyy too dramatically* Sorry 'bout that. Anyway, this is the end, unless you guys really want a sequel, which you can vote on in my profile. I tried to make the stories that they would be taking on next believable, and I apologize if I made any mistakes. Don't hesitate to tell me if I did. :D I'm really sad it's over though, and hopefully some of you guys are as well. I just wanted to thank everyone sooo much for the continuous support I received while writing this, it was so awesome.. I love you guys!!! :D Sorry, I'm trying not to act all full of myself, but I'm kinda proud of myself for finishing something kinda big like this. I have the habit of starting something and never continuing it after a certain point, so this is quite an accomplishment for me! :D Thanks so much though, everybody, and I hope you like this ending! :D

4 Months Later

"Emmett!" Rosalie yelled, playfully beating his back as he threw her over his shoulder and ran to jump into the stream.

Asher and I sat side by side by the water's edge.

The weather was starting to get warmer, and we took this opportunity to get outside and swim.

It seemed surreal that only four months had passed since the battle.

I sat nestled into Asher, my head resting on his chest.

We watched the others jump through the trees, and dive into the water.

I felt the rare Forks sunshine on my cold skin, and it felt wonderful.

My heart felt like it was about to burst with happiness, I felt so complete.

It had been tough, after the battle. The memory still haunted me, as it did to all of us. The fear of losing any of my family… it was heart-wrenching.

Sometimes, late in the night, when the sky was dark and the thunder roared, I would be back in that battlefield, and we would all be fighting for our lives.

It scared me more than anything in the world, that memory.

It reminded me of the growing fear I had that something would happen in Volterra, or in the Southern Covens, and we would have to fight again.

And we might not be so lucky.

But I tried not to think of that, I tried to be optimistic, basking in the glory of our newfound freedom and the love I shared with Asher, and for my family.

And, late on those dark and stormy nights, I had the most wonderful person I could ask for to comfort me. Asher.

I had found my Jasper, my Emmett, my Jacob, my Carlisle, my Edward. My lover, and I knew that our love was just as strong as Alice and Jasper's, Rosalie and Emmett's, Esme and Carlisle's, Bella and Edward's, Nessie and Jacob's, and I took comfort in that fact, that we could be together forever.

And I had learned a great lesson from all of this; never bet against Alice.

********

We wouldn't be able to stay in Forks much longer, the search for me stretched endlessly, and it somewhat touched me that I was so cared about in my human life. And though I still did miss my human family, I knew I needed to move on.

And strangely, I felt like I was happy for the first time in my existence, nothing compared to what I had ever felt in my human life.

I had lived in Seattle, and the search was moving closer and closer to Forks.

It would not be long until someone made the connection of the missing girl to the mysterious sister of the Hales. It was only a matter of time, and we couldn't risk it.

Carlisle had decided to take a job at a hospital in London, his birthplace. It would be a change of pace, and I always had wanted to go to Europe.

Esme had decided to study to become a pedriatic nurse, so she could take a position that would allow her to spend more time with Carlisle. Her thirst for blood had decreased sufficiently, my whole family's had, and Carlisle decided that it would be safe. My presence of when I was turning helped to confirm this.

Jacob decided to open his own garage in London, where Rosalie and Emmett would help out in from time to time.

We "children" (excluding Jacob) would be going to high school.

Asher, Bella, Edward, Nessie, Alice and I would be posing as freshman, and Rosalie, Emmett, and Jasper as sophomores.

Jasper had wanted to pose as a freshman along with us, and to be with Alice more, but Carlisle said unless he wanted to have been held back more than a couple of grades, he would have to pose as a sophomore. He and Emmett were pushing it as sophomores as it is, they were supposedly to have been held back a grade each. They were physically twenty, though they looked even older than that.

I was excited for this opportunity, to start a new life.

It had been a controversy over whether Asher and I were ready for this challenge, since we were still technically newborns, but with the support of the others and very cautious behavior, we argued we could do it.

We wouldn't start school for another year of so anyway, we would be leaving Forks next summer.

I knew I would miss this small town, though I hadn't lived here for more than five months, but it grown on me.

The people were always so friendly, well, the ones I met on my limited excursions were anyway. We didn't like to take my risks or recognition or possible fatalities.

But precaution was all part of being a Cullen.

And I didn't mind, because for the first time, I felt like I was a part of something solid, something real.

I knew that there wasn't really a thing like a happy ending, but I figured, this was as close as I was going to get.

Sorry, I know it's not very long, but it took long enough to write as it is. Sometimes endings come easily to me, but this one didn't. Maybe it was just my subconcious telling me I didn't want it to end. :D lol. Anyway, thanks everyone for reviewing, write now I HAVE 99 REVIEWS!! That is seriously awesome. I can't wait for 100! Lol. As for what I'm doing next, I will continue some of the other projects I've started, and continue writing one-shots. But for big projects, you can vote for what you want me to do next on my profile poll, two votes each! :D I also was tossing around the idea of doing a Grey's Anatomy/Twilight Crossover. The characters would probably all be Twilight ones, but the situations and settings and characters might be from Grey's Anatomy. So review or PM me and tell me what you think about that! I also want to thank my beta, and though I didn't send her a ton because I was too impatient to put them up :D she was so awesome and made this thing a whole let better. So now, I will end my rambling, and don't forget to check out my profile and review! Thanks so much! :D
