*** OK. So, I started writing this story back in 2010 and I haven't updated it since 2011 (It's now 2016). I have recently decided to continue this story because I was reading it earlier today and I fell in love with it all over again, and it gave me the motivation I needed to continue.

*** Now, I started this story when I was 16 and I am now 21. So I have decided to change the rating from T to M. I hope that's ok. Also, I have realized that I made a lot of grammatical error throughout the few chapters I currently have up and I am going to be fixing those ASAP.

*** I am also going to be changing a few minor & major details. Things such as Bella's special abilities, the year she was born, and a couple others.

*** Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight nor the characters! 3

My feet pushed me forward as fast as they could go as I darted through the woods. I was in so much pain emotionally that I had to second surrendering to them. But no, I wasn't going to surrender, I won't give them what they want. Me dead. They invaded my home and slaughtered my whole family. The only family I have ever had and loved. I was the only one who managed to escape, and I fled. It won't be long until they notice that I was gone and start tracking me. I don't know how long I'll be running from them. Years? Centuries? They won't stop until they have me dead. And I won't stop until they have me dead. I cursed myself for being so different. It's exactly what got me in this mess in the first place.

Running until I was sure I had good distance from them, I collapsed and tried to catch my breath.

I don't know what I'm going to do now. Where am I going to go? I can't stay in Italy, they live here. I have to move to a different country. It'll take them a while to comb the whole of Italy looking for me until they realize that I'm not there and widen their search.

Damn the Volturi!
