Carlisle was born in London, in the sixteen-forties. He was the only son of an Anglican pastor. His mother ied giving birth to him. His father was an intolerant man. As the Protestants came into power, he was enthusiastic in his persecution of Roman Catholics and other religions. He strongly believed in the reality of evil. He led hunts for witches, werewolves… and vampires. When the pastor grew old, he placed his obedient son in charge of the raids. At first Carlisle was a disappointment; he was not quick to accuse, to see demons where they did not exist. But he was persistent, and cleverer than his father. He actually discovered a coven of true vampires that lived hidden in the sewers of the city, only coming out by night to hunt. The people gathered their pitchforks and torches — and waited where Carlisle had seen the monsters exit into the street. Eventually one emerged. His voice was very quiet; Carlisle strained to catch the words. He must have been ancient, and weak with hunger. Carlisle heard him call out in Latin to the others when he caught the scent of the mob. He ran through the streets, and Carlisle who was twenty-three and very fast — was in the lead of the pursuit. The creature could have easily outrun them, but Carlisle thinks he was too hungry, so he turned and attacked. He fell on Carlisle first, but the others were close behind, and he turned to defend himself. He killed two men, and made off with a third, leaving Carlisle bleeding in the street. Few days after he became a vampire (story was cited in Twilight).

Esme jumped off the cliff when her son died few days after he was born. People taught she’s dead already so they brought her straight to hospital morgue. Her heart was still beating the funeral home and when Carlisle examined her and found out that her heart was still beating he made her a vampire and his wife (story was cited in Twilight).

Emmett was found by Rosalie while she was hunting. She found a bear who was about to finish Emmett and save him. She carried him back to Carlisle and asked him to make him one of them. Since then they’ve been together (story was cited in Twilight).

Jasper used to live in Houston, Texas. He was only almost seventeen years old when he joined the Confederate Army in 1861. During the Galveston battle, he was placed in charge of evacuating the women and children from the city when the Union’s mortar boats reached the harbor. When they reached the city after dark, he stayed only long enough to make sure the entire party was safely situated. As soon as that was done, he got himself a fresh horse, and headed back to Galveston. Just a mile outside the city, he found three women on foot. He assumed they were stragglers and dismounted at once to offer them his aid. But, when he see their faces in the dim light of the moon, he was stunned into silence. They were, without question, the three most beautiful women he had ever seen. One of them was Maria who made him a vampire (story was cited in Eclipse).

Alice used to work at the asylum in nineteen-twenties. She has a vampire friend (name was never mentioned) and when James (a tracker vampire cited in Twilight) hunt Alice her friend stole her from her workplace and made her. Soon after, she'd been stuck in that black hole of a cell for so long. When she opened her eyes, strong with her fresh youth, it was like she'd never seen the sun before. Alice doesn't remember her human life at all (story was cited in Twilight).

Rosalie was born in Rochester in 1915. In 1933 she was raped by her fiancé together with his friends and left her in the street dying. Carlisle, Esme and Edward found her and took her into their place. Since she’s dying already Carlisle decided to make her one of them (story was cited in Eclipse).

A romantic story by category. Though it’s the usual boy-girl relationship, the only difference is that it’s a human-vampire love story. The main characters are Edward Cullen (vampire) and Isabella Swan (human) and it all happened in Forks Washington.

Isabella Swan
Bella used to live in Phoenix Arizona and at 17 years old when she decided to live with her father Charlie who is the Chief of Police in Forks because she wanted her mother Renee to spend more time with her new husband Phil who is a baseball player & coach.

Edward Cullen

Edward was born June 20, 1901 in Chicago and was baptized as Edward Anthony Masen by his parents Elizabeth and Edward Sr. It was summer of 1918 when Carlisle Cullen found him in a hospital dying of the Spanish influenza at 17. His father was already dead of the same disease. His mother who was also dying of the same disease begged Carlisle to do anything to make his son alive…and so Carlisle decided of making him a vampire and eventually adopted him as his son. His poster parents now are Carlisle and Esme.

It was a 'love at first sight' when they first laid eyes on each other in Forks University where both of them are a junior student. Since then they became inseparable. Bella from the starts keeps bugging Edward that she wanted to love and spend eternity with him and it will only be possible if she is a vampire. Edward gave a condition that marrying him is the only way he'll approve of her request.

After finishing high school, when Bella is already 18 and of course Edward is still 17 (he'll forever be 17), they walk down the aisle. Less than a month of being Mr & Mrs Cullen, Bella unexpectedly got pregnant.

Carlisle existence for almost four centuries never heard any similar tale or legend of a human who got pregnant by a vampire. Though, he strongly believes that the baby’s existence will risk Bella’s life and so it should be removed. To their surprise, Bella not even once from the very first time she knew of her condition think of sacrificing the baby for her self. Instead, she thinks the other way around. She loves the baby as much as she loves Edward and that she’ll do anything just to deliver the baby as safe as she could possibly can. When the time has come to deliver the baby which was name Renesmee by Bella (named after Renee and Esme), the same time that Bella was transformed.

The Power of Holding Hands

I was sitting on a beach one summer day, watching two children, a boy and a girl, playing in the sand.

They were hard at work building an elaborate sand castle by the water's edge, with gates and towers and moats and internal pasages.

Just when they had nearly finished their project, a big wave came along and knocked it down, reducing it to a heap of wet sand.

I expected the children to burst into tears, devastated by what had happened to all their hard work. But they surprised me.

Instead, they ran up the shore away from the water, laughing and holding hands, and sat down to build another castle.

I realized that they had taught me an important lesson.

All things in our lives, all the complicated structures we spent so much time and energy creating, are build on sand.

Only our relationship to other people endure.

Sooner or later, the wave will come along and knock down what we have worked so hard to build up.

When that happens, only the person who has somebody's hand to hold will be able to laugh.
