Everyone who got where he is has had to begin where he was. - Robert Louis Stevenson
Chapter1
En tu planeta me quedé,
Fue por un tiempo y nunca fue mi plan,
Pero mi nave se averió,
Y ahora estoy perdido aquí,
En mañanas con tres soles,
Y múltiples visiones,
Montañas transparentes,
Anemonas de luz,
Partículas de amor y recuerdos de ti,
Love, love, love,
Love, love, love,
Love, love, love, love, love
"Shut up, shut up, shut up" I mumbled half asleep into the pillow while searching for my phone. The dam thing wouldn't shut up singing Love by Zoe and I could already sense today was going to turn out very bad starting with me breaking my phone…again. Down stairs from the kitchen I could hear my mom shouting to get my skinny ass up before we're late to school. You're probably wondering that I meant to say I was going to be late well let me tell you this. You. Are. Wrong.
I headed towards my shower half asleep and annoyed of breaking yet again another expensive object. Shrugging off the guilt I instead stripped out of my pajamas and hopped in the shower turning on the cold water in the process. While my body relaxed and released the drowsiness I thought of how in all the places we ended up here earning a quiet, darkly, humored laugh from me.
~o~o~Flashback~o~o~
"Mom I don't want to leave can't we say here a little longer please" I whined for the twentieth time. She sighed and shook her head while I tried giving her my best puppy dog face. There were two main reasons why I didn't want to live in La Push, Washington and leave beautiful sunny Spain.
"No sweetheart, not unless you want the Volturi after us for revealing our existence besides think of it as a fresh start and great opportunity to make new friends" I huffed and crossed my arms childish. She laughed and grabbed a pillow near her throwing it straight at my face fortunately I caught it without little effort and set it down on my bed. She acts immature most of the time but that's pretty normal and weird at the same time considering her being stuck in a seventeen year old's body forever plus the fact of her being my biological mother.
"But think about it April do you really want to live in a place that holds bad memories?" I asked appearing serious. Her happy grin turned the other way in a frown and suddenly I regretted saying those words.
"Atilia I'm not doing it for me it's for your sake. We need to know what you really are after and before you became that animal" she whispered as if she was talking to herself but with these inhuman ears you could even hear a heartbeat.
"I'm not only a monster but an animal now mom, what next huh a friggin witch?" I screamed tired of not knowing what I am. She opened her mouth to say something but I fled out of the house as quick as I could the only thing I heard was her scream of not meaning it that way.
~o~o~End of Flashback~o~o~
I cried that night because what she had said was the whole truth and nothing else. This thing I became when aggravated had nearly killed her, my two cousins and aunt less than a month ago. After I came home done crying she exploded of how I took it the wrong way and how we are going to surpass all this. She never admitted I was a freak but something or someone unique instead. I could clearly see it in her eyes how she tried to fool herself everything was alright when really it wasn't. April is a strong woman after the challenges she has faced but at some point she has to breakdown not everyone can hold everything inside after all.
"Atilia sweetie hurry up you need to eat and it's already 7:20am" I smiled of how her personality seems to change from super mom to super teen.
"I'm coming let me just change quickly" I said not bothering to yell when you have two hybrid vamps in a simple house.
I wrapped the towel around my body and left to my room seeking out a set of clothes. I thanked mom for deciding to unpack yesterday so that today everything would be organized and ready to go with few exceptions. I found a black plaid flannel shirt, some light simple jeans, and classis black/gray slip on vans putting on those along with my black under garments. After drying my straight dark brown shoulder length hair I applied few makeup and jewelry deciding to not show off too much which only made me more anxious seeing we had to make a good first impression here in La Push. After finishing I grabbed my plaid bag with school supplies inside and headed downstairs. While walking down the stairs I caught my reflection in the huge glass painting and saw nothing had changed about me besides growing taller standing at about 5'6'' and had little muscles. Hopefully they'll stop developing I wouldn't want to appear as a girly girl weight lifter now would I?
"Honey aren't you going to take a sweater?" April asked when she saw me sitting at the counter top without one. I shook my head and told her the weather was going to turn out surprisingly warm later on in the late morning. We ate in peaceful silence and I observed how she too wasn't any different than I was. April had light brown beautiful curly hair that fit her cream colored heart shaped face and light hazel eyes along with her plump lips. Unlike me she had less color because she was less human and more vamp while I got more traits of a human although that made me strangely more powerful considering I had much more mixed traits and abilities. Her frame was no taller than 5'7" only a mere inch taller than me. I laughed after we were done because I noticed how she wore much brighter clothes than mine making me seem like the emo out of the two and her the optimistic one.
"I've heard you laugh by yourself two times in one morning and by the facts if you keep all this up you're going to scare the whole school" she said laughing along as we got in her brand new baby blue mustang gt.
"I'm laughing because you're wearing lighter clothes than I am making me seem like the emo out of the two" I mumbled turning on the radio.
"I'm just kidding jeeze can't make jokes anymore or what?" she smiled towards me and I couldn't resist but laugh…again.
"Sure you can and for once it isn't a lame one" I said smirking sometimes you have to take times like this to annoy your own mother.
"Har har har was that suppose to be a joke too…because it SUCKED" you see what I mean she has yet to learn when things are funny and aren't.
"That was not funny mom" I replied a smiled threatening to appear on my lips.
"Okay whatever you want to believe Atilia Raeka Velius 'sides I can see that smile threatening to appear…right…about…now"
A/N And so there story begins next up is there appearance at school. Also a few important notices are Atilia's name described below V
Atilia=Thorny; Plant symbolizing immortality, resurrection, innocence
Raeka=Spanish: Beautiful, Unique
(surname for both) Velius=Italian name derived from the Roman family name Velius, meaning "concealed." A.k.a mysterious
April or Avril=The name April is of Latin origin and means "to open, blossom, 4th month". Avril is of a French origin.
That is all for now and this chapter was to show an open personality mother/daughter moment.
Translation for Love by Zoe
In your world I was,
For a while and it was never my plan,
But my ship was damaged,
And now I'm lost here
In the morning with three suns,
And multiple views,
Transparent mountains,
Anemones light
Particles of love and memories of you,
Love, love, love,
Love, love, love,
Love, love, love, love, love.
(Perfect song for someone who fell in love unexpectedly which is going to occur in the next chapter)
