To be nobody but yourself in a world doing its best to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle any human can ever fight and never stop fighting.
- E. E. Cummings
Preface
My family was in danger. I looked at all their faces, all with the same expressions of fear and worry. Emmett, Rosalie, Alice, Jasper, Carlisle, Esme, Mom, Dad… Jacob. How could I ever do this to them? They raised me to be the best I can be and now I threw all my chances away. I looked away and back to what I thought were their faces. Mirrors. I flinched at the sight before me and took a step closer. The girl in the mirror had straight jet-black hair, just below her shoulders. And her eyes! They were a brownish-red color. The girl smiled evilly at me and bared her teeth. It was me. I looked behind me and bared my teeth, ready to attack a russet wolf.
