"
They
’
re
still
there
.
"
He
shrugged
.
"
As
they
have
been
for
who
knows
how
many
millennia
.
Carlisle
stayed
with
them
only
for
a
short
time
,
just
a
few
decades
.
He
greatly
admired
their
civility
,
their
refinement
,
but
they
persisted
in
trying
to
cure
his
aversion
to
’
his
natural
food
source
,
’
as
they
called
it
.
They
tried
to
persuade
him
,
and
he
tried
to
persuade
them
,
to
no
avail
.
At
that
point
,
Carlisle
decided
to
try
the
New
World
.
He
dreamed
of
finding
others
like
himself
.
He
was
very
lonely
,
you
see
.
"
He
didn
’
t
find
anyone
for
a
long
time
.
But
,
as
monsters
became
the
stuff
of
fairy
tales
,
he
found
he
could
interact
with
unsuspecting
humans
as
if
he
were
one
of
them
.
He
began
practicing
medicine
.
But
the
companionship
he
craved
evaded
him
;
he
couldn
’
t
risk
familiarity
.

"
When
the
influenza
epidemic
hit
,
he
was
working
nights
in
a
hospital
in
Chicago
.
He
’
d
been
turning
over
an
idea
in
his
mind
for
several
years
,
and
he
had
almost
decided
to
act
-
since
he
couldn
’
t
find
a
companion
,
he
would
create
one
.
He
wasn
’
t
absolutely
sure
how
his
own
transformation
had
occurred
,
so
he
was
hesitant
.
And
he
was
loath
to
steal
anyone
’
s
life
the
way
his
had
been
stolen
.
It
was
in
that
frame
of
mind
that
he
found
me
.
There
was
no
hope
for
me
;
I
was
left
in
a
ward
with
the
dying
.
He
had
nursed
my
parents
,
and
knew
I
was
alone
.
He
decided
to
try
.
.
.
"
His
voice
,
nearly
a
whisper
now
,
trailed
off
.
He
stared
unseeingly
through
the
west
windows
.
I
wondered
which
images
filled
his
mind
now
,
Carlisle
’
s
memories
or
his
own
.
I
waited
quietly
.
When
he
turned
back
to
me
,
a
gentle
angel
’
s
smile
lit
his
expression
.
"
And
so
we
’
ve
come
full
circle
,
"
he
concluded

"
Have
you
always
stayed
with
Carlisle
,
then
?
"
I
wondered
.
"
Almost
always
.
"
He
put
his
hand
lightly
on
my
waist
and
pulled
me
with
him
as
he
walked
through
the
door
.
I
stared
back
at
the
wall
of
pictures
,
wondering
if
I
would
ever
get
to
hear
the
other
stories
.
Edward
didn
’
t
say
any
more
as
we
walked
down
the
hall
,
so
I
asked
,
"
Almost
?
