Chapter 8

APOV (Alice's Point of View)

I averted all my focus to Bella, as did everyone else. She was going crazy. It seemed as if she was trying to tell us something, but we were all to distracted to even notice it. Then she let out a shriek of agony and despair and pointed to where Charlie was laying. I turned my head to see what she was pointing at.

My jaw fell open.

What I saw shouldn't have surprised me, but it did, a lot. There over Charlie's unconscious body was Jasper, with his jaws locked into Charlie's neck. A ravenous and hungry look in his eyes.

"Jasper!" I yelled in surprise "Stop!". But I knew that he wouldn't be able to. I knew his natural instincts kicked in just liked they had for me. And somewhere deep down I knew, Charlie was now a part of the Cullen family.

Emmett jumped on Jasper's back and began to claw at his face. "Jasper! You gotta stop man! Your killing him!". Within seconds Jasper's body was pried off of Charlie, a big bite in Charlie's neck identical to the one that rested on Bella's hand.

"Carlisle!!!!!" I screamed as loud as I possibly could. Carlisle appeared behind me before I could even finish. Knowing what I was talking about he automatically ran over to Charlie's side.

"Is he okay Carlisle?!" Bella cried out.

"He's lost a lot of blood," Carlisle shone a flashlight in each of Charlie's eyes, "and he will not die but..." Carlisle trailed off in thought.

"But?! But what Carlisle?!" Bella shrieked.

"But in three days time he'll be the newest member of the Cullen family" Edward explained for Carlisle.

Jacob's face turned white as a, well as white as one of our faces. "No...this is all my fault...this cant be happening! How will he continue his job!"

Carlisle ignored everything Jacob had just said. "Bella this is your choice, do you want your father to die here as a police chief legend, or do you want him to live as one of the eternal damned for the rest of his existence." Carlisle's voice trailed off as he said the last few words.

Bella gulped, "How long do I have to make the decision?".

"Three days of course," Carlisle replied "If you decide to kill him well then...". Carlisle didn't even have to say the last few words, everyone knew what would be done if Bella chose death for Charlie.

"Bella love," Edward said trying to comfort Bella "everything is going to be okay we knew something like this would happen after your change."

"Yes Edward but we didn't know it would happen so soon!" Bella nearly shrieked with her reply.

"Whether it be now or 50 years from now we knew it was going to happen, and we will get through this either way"

2 DAYS LATER

Bella has been debating with herself for the past 2 days 4 hours 54 minutes and 10 seconds. I really like Charlie and I couldn't really picture what Forks would be like without him. Then again I couldn't picture him as a vampire either. Wow that would be one for the tabloids. 'Police Chief Swan a Vampire?' readers sure would get a kick out of that.

Bella took a deep breath and walked over to Carlisle.

"Yes?" Carlisle asked when he noticed Bella.

"Carlisle...Ive made my decision" everyone grew tense. This was the moment we've been waiting for for the past 2 days 4 hours 56 minutes and 23 seconds.

"Yes?" Carlisle repeated himself.

"Okay everyone after debating with myself Ive decided...don't be mad at me but my decision is...".
