This piece of work is a tribute to Stephenie Meyer and all work is owned by her not myself. I write this for mere amusement and not monetary gain. The first tiny bit contains many quotes copied directly from New Moon and will change the story dramatically from there on out. I hope you all enjoy the show!

Be warned... Angst...

Bella POV

"You're not good for me, Bella."

His words echoed and repeated themselves in my brain, a scratched record playing over and over. I stood there staring at him, a hole punched through my soul as I emotionally bled out onto the forest surrounding me.

"Don't do anything reckless or stupid." He ordered, no longer detached. "Do you understand what I am saying?"

I could feel myself nodding helplessly, the world started spinning and I could hear my own heartbeat pumping, the blood started rushing through my ears. He was going to leave me. I had to stop this. He had to take me with him or I was going to die. I could feel my despair, an angry monster, out to devour me already. It would be a short hunt.

They say when a person is near death, they commonly experience flashbacks of their lives. All I could see was Edward and the time I had spent with him and his family the Cullens. The images came rapidly flashing at me and one phrase pierced the haze of memories.

"I promise that this will be the last time you'll see me. I won't come back. I won't put you through anything like this again."

My mouth dropped open and I felt shocked to my core. As the flashing continued to dazzle me a single phrase uttered long ago grabbed the attention of my stalled mind and forced me back to the present. "Personal kind of heroin..." I whispered. See thats the trouble with drugs. Keep it readily available in quick supply with someone entirely devoted to abstaining, and with enough willpower they will never fall. Eventually they will even run away to avoid the drug entirely. Edward was running away from me, determined to never look back.

"You can go on with your life without any more interference from me. It will be as if I never existed."

Would he go on as if I never existed? I had come to expect that he would let me die, but to not remember me... I don't know that I could handle that, knowing that to an immortal my life was not even a ripple in the pond. I could suddenly see with clarity and my mind seemed to focus on one self destructive thought. How to make him remember, how to insure he never forgot. My voice was eerily steady as I spoke.

"Do you remember the faces of the people you have killed and eaten?" I asked, his eyes widened at the unexpected prod. It would seem being a vampire did not protect someone from the shock of the unexpected. I could see however his eyes flashing and I became certain that for the moment Edward was seeing a flashing replay of faces in his head. "I think you do." I let the silence sit for a minute feeling the moment, all the more certain it was my last. "It is the only way for me to be with you isn't it." His face continued to wear his mask of ice and I could tell I was right. He would not stay with me, a human, nor would he turn me. The only way to be with him was to be in him. His dinner. Suddenly I knew what I had to do and turned.

Edward POV

"Don't do this," she whispered.

My heart was breaking, my soul was shattering. All the proof that we vampires were damned was being painfully laid before myself as I did something no one with a soul could possibly do to the one they loved.

"If... That's what you want."

I nodded, not trusting myself to speak. My mind was on the pain of my turning. My whole body aflame. I could recall the sensation perfectly and there was no better memory to keep me company as I invited myself to a whole new realm of torment.

"Do you remember the faces of the people you have killed and eaten?"

The change in the conversation startled me and I shut down for a moment. My mind did then start to flash, going over every face. I finished my mental walk and looked up to see her face eerily calm. Tracks of tears had made way down her face but the flow had stopped and her eyes were clear but unfocused, as if seeing beyond me.

"I think you do... It is the only way for me to be with you isn't it."

I felt horror, shock and a sense of powerlessness. I am known for being the fastest in my family, but it did not prepare me for what happened next. The present continued and appeared to me to be in slow motion and yet I felt as if I was moving through a gelatinous fog preventing me from moving and likening me to a snail. I watched powerless as she turned and threw her body onto a sharp exposed root of an upturned tree. The root snapped instead of penetrating her vulnerable body, the remainder however had no difficulty in scraping up her side and causing her to bleed before I gathered her into my arms. She had a gash running down the length of her arm and the skin along her stomach was cut up in several places and bleeding freely. My dear Bella was bleeding...

Bella POV

I had done it! A part of me wondered if my clumsiness would betray me or if Edward would somehow anticipate and prevent my attempt to bleed. I was bleeding! I was... Really dizzy. Edward had seemed to snap out of his shock and was now cradling me from behind, his touch held the light and sensitive aspect that I had come to learn was a lie. As he was trying to form words I took some of the blood with my good hand and smeared it more on my lips before lunging toward him and giving him one final bloody kiss. I knew he would resist breathing, I had to make him taste it, I had to make him taste me...

Edward POV

I hate what I am. For 70 years I have survived on the human equivalent of Tofu. Only upon meeting Bella have I truly desired to break that streak, even then I resisted. However being force fed my singer's blood was not something I was prepared to fight. As I looked into Bella's fluttering eyes I could see her life leaking into my mouth in an ever rushing stream that seemed impossible to stop. The taste was exquisite and yet the only thing I could think about was finding some way to stop. Bella's eyes had become unfocused. I forced my jaws open as Her skin paled and became comparable to my own and then she whispered to me sweet words of death and attempted to pull me back onto her neck.

"Don't stop my love, finish your tasty wine. Let this be my parting gift. Keep its flavor in your memory and..."

Her voice faded off as the blood loss started to become too much. She whispered to me a few sweet last words.

"O happy dagger! This is thy sheath; there rust, and let me die."

I finally managed to pull myself entirely off and attempted to turn her. There was little time, I started methodically biting and licking attempting to force enough venom into her to save her to undeath. Behind me I suddenly felt the thoughts of my family, come to see me in my weakest moment, come to see me in my shame.

Alice walked slowly up from behind me and knelt down to the now prone form of Bella. She smiled sadly down at her and gave her a brief kiss on her forehead. "We will always remember you Bella. We will never forget." She said softly, looking deep into Bella's barely open eyes.

We all heard Bella's heart make a final thump.

And then, she died.
