ok, it's a secret kind of way to turn someone into a vampire.  A way they used loong ago so no one would detect it after the person died and she can have a funeral so the family is at peace, but all the while she is still changing but in a quiet way the Cullens have never heard of before.  just my guess......I will TRUST!

great chapter! im so confused! i hoep bella gets changed soon!

For crying out loud, I hope we are almost through all of this horrible part.  It's killing me.

I have no theories.  I don't see how you can get her out of this.  I know, I know...such a positive person am I. (smile)

I believe and trust in you and hope we will get to some happier times very soon.

P.S.  Thanks for your note back to me for the previous chapter.  You might not remember b/c I'm sure you respond to tons of people, but I appreciated your note and your compassion.  Take care.

Are the Volturi turning her?  I mean, the titanium in her heart had to be a needle of venom, but DAMN IT WHO ARE THEY?????   YARHG!

What!!  No, no, no.  They get through everything and now there are new mysterious characters making an appearance.  I'm sooooo confused.

OMG!... Did red eye bite Izzy?... My heart aches. Edward and Izzy need their forever. Thanks, I love it all!!

that is soo not cool...lol

i sure hope you know what you're doing and i'm waiting for more :D

Is what she was injected with like those episodes of 24, where it the heart stop for a little while, but then is okay again a few hours later?

Awesome chapter by the way!

Okay, so it seems that one of the Denali's (shining, gold eyes) is working with a non-vegetarian vampire (blood red eyes) to have Bella changed. It can't be a Cullen because they say that "the Cullens are too close". Also, Rosalie had mentioned that she called the Denali's and told them what was going on. My guess is that it's Laurent and Irina. Reason being that the red eyed vampire described Bella in the hospital as mouth watering and he was paired up with Irina in the original story. I could be way off, but that's my theory.

This was an unexpected twist though. I can't wait to see what happens next. I hope it all works out. My fingers are still crossed for a happy ending... Well that and maybe a juicy lemon! LOL!

that answered NO questions!! that bia is a fighter!! some creepy red-eyed freak is not gonna kill her!! Edward better kick some bloody ass!! ps how did he not register the new scent or the thoughts or anything? I know he's distraught but ole' boy ain't that bad...

Well that is interesting. I'm assuming "red eyes" injected Bella's heart w/ venom, but of course the Cullens are not aware of this, but seeing as how Bella didn't want Edward to turn her, this relieves him of that guilt, and at least they can be together forever now. I'm just not sure which personality will wake up after her change! Great chapter! More soon, please!

Okay, I got nothing.  Maybe you gave clues as to who did this, but my dull mind didn't pick them up.  All I know is she's not really supposed to die!
