"How are we supposed to trust you? It would be safer to just get rid of you, problem solved" Rosalie said as she looked at him intently.
"How about we calm down for a second Rosalie" Alice said as she looked at her sister.
"Calm down? This is about the security and peace of the whole family." Rosalie said in return, her voice almost sounding feral to Jack.
"Well, you said that you weren't exactly a normal human, how about you explain about that more? Because let me be frank with you here Jack, we can't really allow the normal populace to know about us" Carlisle said as he looked at Jack, his tone was serious and for the first time, Jack saw the constant soft smile slip from his face as he looked at him.
"While I do think that what Rosalie is saying is a bit extreme, this is a very serious situation for us, more than you can imagine" Carlisle added on and then fell silent, waiting for Jack's response.
The others similarly grew silent as they waited for Jack to answer the question.
*Sigh*
Releasing a soft sigh, Jack made up his mind. It was either to tell them or to end up in a ditch because of how this situation was developing.
"My life is a game, or at least seems to have become one," Jack said as he looked at Carlisle in the eyes and then shook his head as a smile took over his expression.
"But you won't believe me no matter what I say either way, but that's the truth. I woke up yesterday with my life having become a game, I have stats just like in games that I could add points to and skills like Observe which I can use to get some basic information about people." Jack said.
"You're correct in assuming that it's quite hard to believe," Carlisle said finally after Jack fell silent.
Rosalie meanwhile simply sneered as if what she had heard was disgusting.
"Do you really expect us to believe that lie?" She said as she looked at Jack.
"Well for all intents and purposes, you found me out because of that. So if you don't believe what I just said then you just took someone innocent and kidnapped them" Jack said, this time his voice was annoyed as he furrowed his brows and looked at the woman.
'What the hell is up with this bitch' Jack thought to himself as he stared at her.
Edward intercepted the furious staring contest between the two as he said.
"It's true, whatever he's saying while unbelievable is true."
Carlisle turned to stare at him for a moment and then nodded.
"That doesn't mean he isn't a human, he's still very much human however" Edward added as he looked at Jack.
Jack looked at him with the corner of his eye and sighed.
"You didn't have to add that part too, and here I thought you were doing so good"
Carlisle didn't talk anymore for a few moments, the others also sat silent as they waited for him.
Finally, Carlisle opened his mouth, his eyebrows were minutely furrowed as he looked at Jack.
"While you seem to have an ability, that isn't an unknown for humans, and others that have them also exist, the point of the matter is that you are human and we are Vampires Jack," Carlisle said, his tone was somber and didn't carry any discernable hint of emotion from what Jack could hear at least, even if there was any, Jack didn't know the man well enough to be able to find those small traces.
"Right, so you're vampires. That's equally unbelievable, just like my ability" Jack said and then decided to just go for it.
"You wouldn't mind if I used my skill to see would you?" Jack asked.
Carlisle thought for a moment and nodded.
"Sure, go ahead, I'm quite interested in what your ability will tell you about me," Carlisle said.
The others seemed to shift in their positions slightly as they stared at the two.
'Observe' Jack thought as he stared at Carlisle intently.
[ Observe skill has been used ]
[ Observe skill level is insufficient thus information detail will be lowered ]
[ Name: Carlisle Cullen ]
[ Race: Vampire ]
[ Age: Unknown ]
[ Information: Carlisle Cullen, a doctor working at Forks Hospital, the adoptive father of the Cullens and Hales. Married to Esme Cullen ]
Jack read through the entire thing but what struck him the most was the second line in Carlisle's information panel.
A twitching smile appeared on Jack's face as he looked at Carlisle after dismissing the panel.
"I guess you weren't lying huh," Jack said as he looked at the man.
Carlisle simply turned to look at Edward who nodded.
"It showed your race and that you work at the hospital and are our adoptive father who's married to Esme," Edward said and then turned his sight to Jack.
"Everything else couldn't be seen because his ability said he had insufficient skill levels?" Edward said though he seemed to be confused by the words at the last part.
"Wow, it really is just like a video game" Emmet interjected as he looked at Jack with shining eyes.
Carlisle nodded at the information and turned back to Jack.
"Well, I guess that confirms that. So there are two choices I can give you here Jack." Carlisle said as he looked at Jack, his face still carried no hint of any emotion at all.
To Jack, it really felt like he was staring at a sculpture instead of a person with how Carlisle was able to keep his body incredibly still, Jack didn't think that was even possible for a human.
"What are my two choices" Jack asked as he looked at the man intently.
'There's a slight hope' Jack thought to himself as he stared at the man.
"The first choice is that we dispose of you," Carlisle said, his voice and words sending chills down Jack's spine.
This time even his increased intelligence was having trouble calming the influx of his emotions.
"I don't particularly like that option doctor, whats the second choice?" Jack said almost hurriedly though his voice appeared calm and without any stutters on the outside.
"Become one of us," Carlisle said finally after a moment of silence, this time an emotion seemed to appear behind his eyes however Jack couldn't quite comprehend it.

This was a pretty exciting chapter, hope you guys liked it.
Carlisle is much colder because, unlike last time when Bella was Edward's Mate, Jack really is just a random nobody.
