sorry about all this. we tried to rein alice in. emmett, get jasper out of here. emmett. i'll have to stitch this up. i'll take care of her, edward. check on jasper. go. it's not your fault. jasper hasn't been away from human blood as long as the rest of us. centuries of practice. i enjoy my work too much. helping people, saving lives. i'm hoping there's a point to my existence, even if i am damned. then you and i agree. but edward doesn't believe there's an afterlife for our kind. he thinks we've lost our souls. if you believed as he did, would you risk it? no. we promised edward. yes. when she's living her life, safe from danger -- edward -- you've chosen not to live without her, which leaves me no choice. i won't lose my son. but alice has never turned anyone. it'd be safer if i did it --
