I'm Alive

with Onyx

Nyx eyes slowly open. She squints at the light. She looks around and notices she's in Carlisle home office. Sitting up she feels dizzy. "Owww. My head."

The door opens and she sees Carlisle with a smile, "Hello, Nyx."

"Am I dead?"

Carlisle chuckles. "No. I have no idea why you're not like us though." he pulls a chair next to her and uses medical devices. "James' venom was in you for too long and too close to your heart. We couldn't suck out the venom. But you're human from what I can tell." Carlisle writes something down. He looks up at her. "I think your magic blood blocked the venom."

"Really? So I won't be able to stay with you all?" She said sadly.

"It might have just been a defense mechanism because you didn't want to be turned." Carlisle suggests. "We have no way of knowing. This is a rare situation." He smiles at her. "There's some people who would like to see you, Nyx."

A knock was heard and the door opened to reveal her dad, Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Her dad sighed, "They saw the sparks and forced us to bring them. They haven't met anyone."

Harry, Ron and Hermione hugged her. Ron pulled back smiling, "Are you alright? We were so scared!"

"How on earth are you alive?" Hermione asked "Is it true you were attacked by a vampire?"

"Hermione!" Ron scolded.

Harry looked at her with soft eyes as the two bickered "Are you alright, Nyxie?"

"Yeah." She looked at her dad then the other three. "I suppose I owe you an explanation." She then goes on and tells them about the cold ones with Carlisle's help. She tells them about the Cullens and how they are different and protected her. "Carlisle?"

"Yes?"

"Where's Edward?"

"I'm the only one here. The others went hunting. Alice thought it best to not have them meet everyone at once." By the way he said that it had to do with a vision. "Jasper needed to hunt and didn't want to be near the others. He didn't want to hurt any of them by accident." Carlisle puts away all his instruments. Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall walk in.

"Hello Headmaster, Hello Professor McGonagall." Nyx said with a smile.

Dumbledore was first to speak, "How are you doing, Onyx?"

"Better." Nyx smiles as McGonagall hugs her.

"Dear, you gave us such a fright when we got your periculum charm." She pulls back to look her in the eyes.

Nyx sighs looking down. She looks up to her dad, "Dad." She has tears in her eyes. "Please don't make me leave. I love it here." Her dad looks shocked. "Carlisle and the rest of the Cullens have been so welcoming and treat me like I'm one of them. I don't feel like an outcast."

"Onyx..."

"Please! I can't go back to Hogwarts. Edward has helped me with Cedric's death. I'm finally able to get a full night of sleep without waking up screaming. Carlisle is an amazing doctor and has allowed me to talk to him about everything." She tells him. "Don't make me leave because of one small mistake."

"Onyx. I'm not going to make you leave."

"You're not?"

"Carlisle talked to me about everything before you awoke. He told me about how bad Bella has been to you. He's going to keep an eye on you. He's offered to take you in and allow you to live with him." Nyx smiled and turned to Carlisle who nodded to her. "I know that you'll be safe under his watch." Snape hugs his daughter. "I love you, Sunflower. I could never take you away from somewhere you love." He gave a soft smile.

She hugged him. "Thank you, dad!"

Clearing his throat he gathered everyone. "Hope to see you soon, Onyx. We must be going." Everyone left and she looked out the window and saw them teleport away.

A few moments later Edward is by her side. "Hi."

"Hey." She smiled "What did Alice see?" Nyx questioned

Edward sighed "If they got a good look at me they would have thought I was a Death Eater taking the form of Cedric. Whatever a Death Eater is." Nyx's eyes widened. "By your eyes I'm guessing that it's not good."

"Nope." Nyx shakes her head, "Their followers of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. The group primarily consists of wizards and witches who were radical pure-blood supremacists who practiced the Dark Arts with reckless abandon, malevolence and without regard to or fear of wizarding law. One of the dark magic is a charm to bring back the dead." She looks scared. Her eyes widened, "They would kill you." Nyx hugs Edward.

Edward hears a crack. "Oww..." He pulled away and lifted his sleeve. They see cracks that start to heal. "Carlisle?" Edward shows his arm to the coven leader. "I think the venom did something."

"I need to take a blood sample, Nyx." Carlisle turns to her. She nods, shocked by the cracks. Carlisle grabs a syringe from the drawers. He carefully pricked her shoulder. Pulling some blood he takes it to the microscope on his desk and looks at it. He looks to Edward and Edward is fast to run over. Edward grabs another syringe and sticks his own arm. Pulling out some venom. The men look between the two samples and are shocked. "I've never seen this." Carlisle said.

"What?" Nyx panicked. "What's wrong?"

Edward motions her over. "Look." He places the syringe from him under it and Nyx sees the slow moving cells that don't age.

"Okay?" Edward switches the syringe too fast for her to notice. "How did it get more red and move a bit?" She asks, pulling her eye away from the microscope.

"That's your blood, love." Edward says. "It seems like you're immortal now. The venom didn't turn you into a vampire. It made you immortal." Nyx's eyes widened, "It seems to have made you extra strong now too." He kissed her head and pulled her into a hug. He notices the change in her body temperature. "And colder."
