Author's Note: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Bella's a vampire now and all that good jazz. Review if you'd like me to update.

I'd been a vampire long enough to realize this life wasn't all I thought it would be. For the most part, the days are repetitive, drawn out, and boring, only very few times has changes this big come. But let's not get to that right now. How did I get this way, many would ask. Well, you see, it all started 25 years ago, one year after he left me.
It was unusually sunny today, odd for September. It just made today all that much worse. One year ago, he left. My angel, my love, my life. It's the sunny days that hurt the most, really. Days like these, I always remembered that first day in the meadow, the day where we really became us. I remember his beauty, his sparkling skin, the iciness of his lips pressed against mine. I couldn't keep in my tears anymore, and I let out a sob. I tried so hard to pry these thoughts from my head. "He doesn't love you anymore Bella, remember that." I said to myself quietly.
As I got up, and got ready for the day, I decided to do something stupid, something that would hurt me, yet I felt like I needed to. I decided to go to our meadow. I drove my truck down the highway, and felt a sense of dread fall over me. I don't understand why I'm doing this. I pulled my truck over, and started walking. I'd only been there once since..since..he left, but now I knew the way by heart. I trudged on, falling too many times to count. Damn gravity, it's going to be the death of me. I finally say the entrance ahead, and I slowed, something felt wrong..extremely wrong. I started walking again with hesitance, while my mind was screaming at me to turn back, to run as fast as I could, but I ignored it. I entered, and looked around. Nothing wrong..yet nothing right.
This place was nothing without him, nothing. I sunk down to my knees, and started sobbing. "WHY!" I screamed, "Why did you leave me? All I wanted was you, and I thought you wanted me too, why..why..WHY?" I demanded. What I heard next had me frozen in fear. "Well, well, well, wasn't that a nice little performance" A chilling voice asked me. No, oh god no. Victoria.
She stood in front of me, violent red hair blowing all around, red eyes menacing, sparkling in the sunlight. "It took long enough for me to escape those vile wolves, and now, I've got you." She started laughing. I knew I was going to die then. Stupid, stupid me. I should never have come here. "Aren't so brave now, are you?" She asked me mockingly. I couldn't say anything. I was still frozen in fear. "Cat got your tongue?" She asked. I gulped. "Wh-why are you d-doing th-thi-this?" I asked. "Your Edward killed my mate. He took my true love away from me, you really don't think I'm going to let him get away with that, now do you?" She said.
What I said next was hard to say, but I said it anyway. "You're..too late. He's gone. He doesn't want me. It's not like it'd matter if you killed me or not." Ouch. Tears were streaming down my face now. "Oh, but it does" She said. "You see, I still want to avenge his murder, and you, you little human girl, are here, and why would I let this opportunity go to waste?" Oh crap, I thought. "Well, Isabella, I'm getting bored with all this chit-chat, so let's begin, shall we?" With that, she lowered herself down to my neck. I felt her razor sharp teeth sink through my skin, and I felt fire all throughout my veins. I screamed out in pain. I felt myself fading faster, only hoping that the job would soon be done.
I remember waking up, Victoria gone, me a vampire. I didn't understand how she could leave after wanting such revenge. It hit me then, I was alone. I couldn't go back to Charlie, or Renee, or Jake. I couldn't go back to Forks. I remembered him talking about Italy once..about the Volturi. So I made the long journey there, traveling by foot because I didn't have any money.
Aro, Marcus, and Caius welcomed me with open arms, and I became somewhat of a daughter to them. They were fascinated by me, for I was so different from other vampires. You see, I was powerful, extremely powerful. I could block off other vampires powers from me, and others too.
Now the day this change came was just like any other. I got dressed, did my makeup and hair, and got ready to go shopping. Yeah, I love shopping now. When you have an eternity to live, you realize shopping is one of the only fun things left. I walked out of my room, and ran to my father's chamber.
I usually knocked, because, well, you never know when there's something you really don't want to see going on. Like them feeding. I couldn't bear to watch them take another humans life. Yeah, I was a "vegetarian", I know what it's like to be an innocent human having your life stolen away. Well, if I had knocked, I would have not heard this conversation.
"Ah Caius, Marcus, our old friend Carlisle and his family is coming to visit." They looked up as I entered, shocked to see me there.
I stopped dead in my tracks. Crap. Crap, crap, crap. "What" I asked shakily. They knew my history with them, they knew how much it hurt to even think about them.
And now, 25 years later, the very people whom I never thought I would ever see again, and wasn't sure if I wanted to, were coming to the very place I lived.
Big surprise, indeed.
