I felt incredibly satisfied when I got home. I’d crushed John to a pulp; his screams still echoed in my head.
One down, four to go.
And only one would matter.
I was immensely proud of myself; I hadn’t been tempted once to bite him. I’d only thought about my actions: his smell only made the thirst a tad bit more pronounced. I was glad I’d gone hunting yesterday.
I unlocked the door of my new home, trying to be stealthy until I remembered our super hearing. I quickly dropped the façade, and was shocked silent when I saw Carlisle blocking the entrance to the living room, and, therefore, my room. His face was calm--I’d never seen a man as calm as he--and serious.
“I was wondering if you would like to talk with me for a minute, Rosalie,” He said quietly, getting up and pulling a chair next to him. I sat without a word, fearing what he would say. I’d only known him a week, but I respected him and I feared his rejection.
“I was called down to the Hotel Newport today,” he started once we were at eye level. The fear coursed through me. “They asked me to investigate a murder.” I remained mute; I had no idea what my face displayed. “There was no evidence of a forced entry; there was no evidence at all. And the body--it was completely destroyed. The bones were crushed, disconnected: the neck bone was the last to break. That mean that poor man--John, his name was--that John had lived through 176 of his bones breaking before he died.” Carlisle shuddered, as did I. He suddenly glared at me, and I became frightened. The expression was odd, out of place, on his loving face. “I’m not pleased, Rosalie.”
“I know, Carlisle,” I whispered, avoiding eye contact. “I just couldn’t let him live--he may’ve attacked again!” He sighed, putting a hand to his head.
“I realize this, Rosalie. But it doesn’t mean I like it.” I nodded feveredly, although I couldn’t fully agree. My murder had made me blissful; I couldn’t imagine how exalted I would feel as I killed Royce, slowly, painfully--
“Rosalie?” Carlisle’s sudden voice made me jump; he was standing beside my chair. He slowly shook his head, and turned away from me. “Don’t kill any more than necessary.”

This is probably my favorite chapter, mostly because of Carlisle. Because Carlisle = LOVE. Anyways, I wanted to write about how the most compassionate of the Cullens would react to Rosalie's death rampage, and I hope I captured it okay. I'm still a little iffy on it, though. Oh well.
OH: there are 206 bones in the human body, and 29 in the head alone. Rose didn't break any of John's head bones in fear of him bleeding; she stopped at the neck bone. And 206 - 29 = 176
Hope y'all enjoyed!
Twilight and all its wonderful characters and plot lines belong to the beautiful Stephenie Meyer. Not me.
