Y'know that cute little hissy-pop noise kittens make when they're trying to be intimidating in a (for them) terrifying situation where death seems inevitable but all they end up doing is the exact opposite of what that false bravado was meant to accomplish, namely-
What if the Denali sisters found Rosalie first before Carlisle did?
(In case anyone's interested: "Alibi" from Pabllo Vittar, Sevdaliza and Yseult for this one. 🖤)
Right so, the obvious thing to note here is that, visually, Rose fits right in.
(Ngl: This looks right, lol.)
If Sasha were still alive in this scenario, she would be absolutely bewitched by the similarities - to the point Rose's suffering becomes secondary. (Cue Rose absolutely despising her "mother" for making her like this, for taking away the only thing she had left at that point - a choice.) Which means that Tanya would be absolutely bewitched by it. Probably not to the same, borderline obsessive extent that fueled Sasha's actions, but there's no doubt in my mind that Mama made sure to teach her unruly daughters - especially her eldest - the value of a new ally. Especially a female one. And especially one that looks like a carbon copy of them. I mean, it's a perfect match.
Rose is perfect.
So ye, if the Denali sisters were to stumble upon Rose before Carlisle did, I don't think words would be needed. They all "enjoyed" the same upbringing, after all. They must know what the other is thinking as they stand around this dying woman, sharing a knowing look that conveys more than words ever could. This isn't just about saving a life, it's about expanding their cult honoring their mother in the only way they have left:
By continuing her (twisted) legacy.
I mean, I could see Kate being somewhat hesitant, considering her own, downright traumatic transition into this new world. But she wouldn't dare voice it in that moment. Or ever. (Sasha did quite a number on their psyche, I imagine. -> "I've given you eternity. A never-ending well of beauty and riches... Aren't you grateful, my daughters?") So, Kate stays silent. As does Irina. They remain as they are, watching as their sister lowers herself down to the rose - withering by the second.
"Chudáčik..." the eldest whispers, deathly-pale fingers running through matted, once-golden strands. But it's not the blood that fazes her - hasn't for a while now. "You will return, love. But you will do so much more than survive."
Sticky strands are moved aside, making way for what's to come.
"And we'll be with you every step of the way."
It's over before anyone can blink. Barely perceivable to the human eye.
...But very much audible.
"It's done. So let's get out of here," Irina urges, tense as a bowstring in the face of... this.
A woman screaming her head off.
In the middle of the street.
For anyone to see.
Kate remains silent, watching as blond is lifted by blond, a gut-churning familiarity to it that threatens to numb her.
Almost unconsciously, her gaze finds Irina.
"Let's return home then," Tanya says, leading the way out of the street, the screaming woman firmly secured in her arms. "We have some preparations to make."
Irina follows swiftly.
Kate... follows, entirely torn about what she's feeling.
And Rose, well-
"You will have your vengeance... sestra."
.
.
.
To sum it up:
No matter which cult coven finds her, Rose's fate is sealed.
And well, considering Emmett likely isn't in the picture either because Rose will end up somewhere else completely (and thus, never end up meeting him), there's nothing to stop the hatred and contempt from consuming her. Because there's no way she's ever gonna forgive Tanya for forcing a life upon her that makes escaping the gut-wrenching truth impossible. This horrible, horrible incident that will now haunt her for the rest of eternity. So yeah-
In this specific scenario, Rose is very much MC. 🌹💔
