That effing skank has no moral compunction whatsoever: manipulation, lies, betrayal. Her crimes are the most destructive form of evil because, in the end, she will destroy herself as well as any chance she had at tue happiness. I wonder if emmet will forgive her. I know I wouldn't.

I hate Rose. I'm sure I'm not the only person whose had that reaction, but given her experiences she should be sympathetic to humans. Those traumatic events ought to humanize her, instead they've left her a bitter empty shell, and a truly shitty person. And her belief in the bullshit propaganda she spews doesn't endear her to me either. That being said, I can't really understand why you don't have more reviews. This is definitely one of the more creative fics I've read. Bravo.

I was glued to my monitor the entire chapter, as usual. The range of emotions experienced during Bella's conversation with Charlie was remarkable.

I completely understand Charlie's refusal to trust Edward. Afterall, Bella had the same frame of mind before all of this happened and it took a lot for her to come around...and even then, that's not regarding all vamps, just some.

When Charlie called Edward Subject X14, my stomach dropped - how sad to think of him as some sort of lab rat...

And Seth's visit at the end was so sweet...Bella is definitely back to 'real life' and it looks like she and Edward are going to have a tough time convincing others that what they have is legit and not some glamoring technique...which also won't go over well with the public, I'm sure...but wow, how exciting. This story just keeps getting better and better!

Edwards valiant resolution is about the only thing that kept me from chucking my iPhone 4 at the wall. So thanks for that. But please don't tell me you're going to do what every other fanfic author out there does- have Edward not reveal the exact details of his betrayal because he "doesn't deserve her forgiveness" or some other worthless crap. Bella has a right to know how things went down, because it's HER life, her decisions. I'm enjoying the story, but I feel like you're setting a trap.

I love the idea of Bella as the harbinger of doom. Death to all evil vamps!

oOohhh much to discuss in this chapter!

FINALLY! They got there! I always suspected Edward would be a prime candidate to test the weapon they have... I mean, how many vampires could they get their hands on? I just wasn't expecting Edward to be such an easy prey when he arrived...

Poor guy can't be having a nice time at all...

So now it seems it's time for Bella to go rescue Edward and go to the other side... oh wait... Well, I hope those two find middle ground in some paradise island or something...

Can't say I'm a Jacob fan, so there wasn't much trauma for me in that part. Feel sorry for Seth though... that kid is always nice, no matter how you see it ;)

You still have a problem with the verb tenses when you are using have-had as an auxiliary verb. Every single have or has you have outside a dialog should've been had... But everything else looks great!

i ccried my eyes out b.c of the last line love it

Wow, I wonder that plan she's going to come up with.

An excellent update, jazsqr!

I truly hope Seth and Bella will be able to work together to get Edward out of there. I have a sick feeling about the chemical Mike brought back and how they will use it against Edward.

I can see things really changing from this point going forward. Lines will be drawn.

Excellent setup for the next story arc.

Hope to see you again soon. Until then...quietly salivating. ;)

I feel kind of guilty that every time I pm you about updating, you update in the next 24 hours...but I don't think I'll stop doing it! :)

It sucks that Bella can't convince Charlie of the truth. also, I don't think her babbling :"I love him!" would help matters much. I'm sitting on hot coals over here!

Update soon! As soon as you can!

And wow...I hope I'll still be into fanfiction in 10 years (although, knowing me, I needn't worry. I practically live on the stuff.)

this chapter was great. i have really enjoyed reading your entire story. it was amazing.

This story is amazing! I rarely review, but I felt so compelled to do so after I finished reading. Just wow. You deserve so much more reviews !

Hooray for Seth, and Bella for that matter. Great heroics here, and some nasty villainy too - you're doing the action genre proud. What a shame I'm all caught up now!

Twilight meets ER - how happy that makes me! I think you've worked the pack into this very effectively.

This is a well told and captivating story - it deserves to have reviews in the thousands. You could write a blurb for it and send it to the 'under the radar fics' feature on The Twilight Awards website - this is a great way of telling readers what you're up to.

Great playful details in here: the witty 'meta' references and the play on vampire tanning! I like how you balance serious apocalytic stuff with the brighter side of vamp-human relations. Gives your story a very distinctive flavour.

(One little typo I couldn't not point out, although I promise I don't make a habit of this: you use 'mustard up' where you mean 'muster up' - quite a funny one, in my book!)

Thanks for sharing.
