Edward, Will and I walked into the living room of the Cullens house as we saw Carlisle, Emmett, Danny and Jasper watching the news.

Will ran and sat next to his grandpa and Jasper as we listened to the news.

"Seattle is in a state of terror. Police are baffled by the escalating murders and disappearances. Theories range from a vicious new gang to a wildly active serial killer. Reporting live, Dawn Chubai. CNN" the reporter said before Carlisle turned off the TV.

"It's getting worse. We're going to have to do something" Carlisle told us.

"It takes more than one of our kind to cause the damage they're reporting. Quite a few more. They're undisciplined, conspicuous" Jasper said.

"It's newborns" Edward said.

"As in new vampires?" I asked them.

"In the first few months after the change" Edward told me.

"That's when we're at our most uncontrollable. Vicious. Insane with thirst" Jasper added.

"Something to look forward to" Emmett told me with a smirk.

"No one's trained these newborns, but this isn't random" Jasper told Carlisle.

"Someone's creating an army" Carlisle realized.

"Well, now we're definitely going to Seattle" Emmett said as he stood up from the couch.

"An army of newborn vampires?" I asked them.

"And they've been created to fight someone" Jasper told me.

"We're the only clan even close to Seattle" Edward said.

"Regardless of why they were made, if we don't put a stop to them, the Voltaire will. I'm surprised they've let it go on this long" Carlisle said.

"Maybe they're behind it. In Italy, I read Aro's mind. He wants Alice, Lily, and I to join him, but he knows we'll never choose him as long as our family's still alive" Edward told us.

"An army could solve that for him" Jasper told him.

~LATER THAT NIGHT~

Edward and I were in my bed kissing when I pulled away.

"What's wrong?" he asked me.

"Why're you so against me becoming like you?" I asked him.

"I've told you" he replied.

"Be honest with me. There's more" I told him.

"I know the consequences of this choice you're making. I've lived through it. And to let you suffer that..." he trailed off as he shook his head.

"You believe I have a soul, and I don't. But to risk yours, just for the sake of never having to lose you, that's the most selfish thing I'll ever do" he told me.
