The next chapters in Eclipse in Edward’s point of view.

Enjoy everybody. - And I did not write it – but it’s so
awesome that you all
deserve to read it and love it!
Newborn - EPOV
With one final glance in my direction – a look filled with both
reassurance and apology – Jasper
began his story. He knew what I was afraid of, of course he
knew. He couldfeel my fear. Not since
that first day when I'd brought Bella home and told her about
our history had I been so afraid of
frightening her away with too much truth. She'd teased me
that I was waiting for her to scream and
run away, and while she'd always assured me I wasn't as
much of a monster as I made myself out to
be, there was no denying that, at least for a time,
Jasperhad been. There was more murder and
bloodshed in his history than the rest of us combined. Even
in my darkest days, I hadn't been a part
of anything anywhere near as atrocious as the things Jasper
had been surrounded by on a daily
basis.
Bella had heard Rosalie's story, and while it was brutal and
terrible, what she'd experienced only
showed the horrors that man was capable of. Jasper's history
encompassed the worst of our kind. As
he spoke, I watched her expression carefully, ready to stop
him the moment I thought it was too
much for her. She needed to understand where he was
coming from, but I could hear all that Jasper
was prepared to confess. There was no need to give her
more nightmares than she already had.
He spoke carefully, reading Bella's emotions as much as I
was reading her expression. He paintedthe picture of the
world as it was, as it still is for so many of our kind. A world
where humans arenothing more than our food source, red
dots on a map as he put it, highlighting the most
populated,and therefore most desirable areas. The more
humans in one area, the easier it is to feed withoutanyone
noticing.
Like Seattle, he added silently, his eyes flickering for an
instant in my direction. I wish it wasn't
starting to feel so much like the old days, believe me. But I
know how they think. If someone had
suddenly tried to claim such a busy city as their own, then
why not build an army to defend it? And1
with humans always finding some explanation, no matter
how mysterious the deaths, even an army
isn't really risking exposure.
“Not that the covens in the South care much for what the
humans notice or do not,” he said, both
continuing his story aloud, and finishing his silent thoughts
to me. I didn't want to admit it, but it all
made too much sense. And if it was an army of newborns we
were up against, I wasn't sure we
would be able to stop them before the Volturi stepped in.
“It's the Volturi that keep them in check,” Jasper said, having
come to the same conclusion as
myself. And thank goodness for that, he thought, then
quickly added,sor r y when he felt my anxiety.
Jasper had always been grateful for the existence of the
Volturi, and even knowing that they would
come to destroy us, to destroyBella, couldn't take away his
respect for them.
“They are the only ones the southern covens fear. If not for
the Volturi, the rest of us would be
quickly exposed.” He was still speaking to Bella, but for a
moment it felt more like he was
defending his feelings toward the Volturi to me. To some
extent I could understand. With all the
horrors he'd seen, it must have granted him at least a
certain amount of peace, knowing there was an
end – that there were still rules and limits to what would be
tolerated among the power-crazed,
ravenous villains he lived with.
Bella listened silently, her breathing steady but shallow, as
Jasper explained how different the
covens in the South are, compared to those who live up
North. They truly lived as vampires, the
kind from humans' stories and legends. They came out at
night, and had no regard for human life. I
kept watching, gauging her reactions, but her expression
remained undeniably relaxed, and it wasn't
until Jasper spoke of war that she spoke.
“But what are they fighting for?” she asked, her voice barely
a whisper.
“Remember the map with the red dots?” he asked her. She
nodded nervously, and Jasper sensed
how greatly I wanted him to stop.
She's fine, Edward. I've been keeping a steady calm flowing
in her direction, but she barely needs it
anymore. She's... fascinated.

Of course she was. When was I ever going to learn that Bella
handled the realities of our world far
better than I gave her credit for? Still, the way Jasper had
been speaking – and I'd appreciated his
doing so – everything had sounded distant and story-like. It
wasn't until he gave a name to one of
the characters, that I saw a flicker of fear in Bella's eyes.
When Jasper explained the way Benito had
wiped out several covens for the sole purpose of claiming
the most populated cities for his personal
feeding ground, I heard Bella's heart start to race.
“How did he win?” she asked, voice shaking.
“Benito had created an army of newborn vampires. He was
the first one to think of it, and, in thebeginning, he was
unstoppable. Very young vampires are volatile, wild, and
almost impossible tocontrol.”
I instinctively took at step closer to Bella, anticipating a
reaction, though I still wasn't sure what itwould be. Would
she be scared, knowing that such a thing as a newborn army
could exist, and thatit was very likely what was causing so
many deaths in Seattle? Would she be upset that I'd
nevertold her about any of this? Would she be wondering
whather first years would be like, and whetheror not she
would be as wild and unstoppable as those Jasper was
describing?
I waited, yet she said nothing. On the surface, she remained
the picture of composure. If it weren't
for her pounding heart and uneven breathing, I might have
believed she was completely unfazed.
Jasper told her about the subsequent armies created to
battle the army that had already done so
much damage. He told her of one of the darkest times in
vampires' long history. He told her
everything, and she listened with what appeared to be a sort
of morbid curiosity.
It didn't escape my notice that Bella visibly flinched every
time Jasper mentioned the Volturi, and
with good reason. Thinking about them was surely the most
difficult part of the story, because
while perhaps she could picture, to some extent, the things
Jasper had described, the Volturi were
already very real to Bella. And while I could assure her we
would know long before they came for
her, she still feared them above all else.
Still, the Volturi had done their part, and even I had to agree
with Jasper when he explained to Bellathat we owed them for
our present way of life. I couldn't even imagine what would
have happenedif they hadn't stepped in when those first
wars broke out. No city would have been safe, and
