Eternity

A/N: This is a repost of a story I had up a lil over a year ago, but never finished, and I ended up taking it down since I was unhappy with the way I was writing it and I was coming up with blanks, writers block. Instead of leaving the story on the site to rot I took it down. Now my mind is fresh and ready to go so why not retry releasing it.

~NPOV (somewhere in South America)~

Two females were dashing through a tropical forest in South America however, if normal humans looked, they would have seen and felt nothing but a breeze as they went by. The two women were far too fast to be seen my mere mortal eyes. Both women seemed to be about 18 or 19, one was blonde with pale skin, blue eyes, she seemed to be of Caucasian descent and one had black hair, tan skin, brown eyes she seemed to be of Asian descent. Both glowed with an ethereal beauty that far surpassed any other immortal race. They both had on what looked like leather battle suits, simple leather top that only covered the front, leaving their backs and arms bare. On their back was a very detailed tattoo of a set of folded angel wings that took up their entire back. They wore leather leggings that were skin tight and showed all their curves. In the leggings were holsters for several throwing knives, more than half of them missing.

"Still following us Eva, what should we do?" the blonde asked, her shoulder length hair flowing behind her in the wind.

"We'll find a clearing and take them out there" The other female responded in a grim voice, her hair hung in a ponytail down her back that was, at the moment, flying in the wind as well. "How many of them are there Ali?"

Ali briefly looked behind her again, her eyes glowing momentarily as she stared off into the distance.

"About 30 werewolves with 2 lycan masters, and 50 newborn vamps with 2 ancient vamp masters about 100 miles back"

"They underestimate us greatly." Eva smirked, her eyes glowed momentarily as she looked ahead of them "there is a clearing up ahead about 25 miles we'll stop there."

Seconds later the two were waiting in the clearing as the sounds of running feet and howling can be heard in the distance, getting closer.

"Vampires and Lycans working together…who knew?" Eva laughed bitterly "Just eons ago they were mortal enemies and now they seem to be best pals."

"It won't save them." Ali said icily "However something doesn't seem right."

"I know what you mean, it might be time to visit Alexandria and her mate Katerina and see why her Lycans are hunting us down." Eva said thoughtfully "then we may need to pull Amirala and her mate Katelynn out of retirement to see what those piss-ants they put in charge of the vampires are doing, thinking they can challenge us. What was it they named themselves? Voltage?"

"Volturi," Ali answered her mate, then she turned towards the forest as the sounds of the approaching small army of immortal signaled that they were nearly upon them "slow pokes are finally here."

"Fight honorably, Alisha" Eva said as she closed her eyes and took a deep breath in the next instant she opened her eyes and they had changed from dark brown to silver and suddenly the tattoo on her back started to glow and leap right off her back then turn into pure-white wings that stretched out behind her.

"Fight honorably, Evalynn" Ali said closing her eyes as well and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again they had also changed from blue to silver like her mate, and her tattoo on her back glowed before coming off her back and forming pure-white wings that stretched out behind her.

Eva looked over at her mate and said, "I love you."

Ali looked back at her mate and smiled saying, "I love you too."

They both then drew a circle in the air in front of them creating a magic circle from which they put their hands in and drew out their long katana swords, black for Eva and a white one for Ali.

Just then the werewolves and newborns broke the tree line and headed straight at the two lone figures in the clearing, while their masters walked calmly behind them, confidence exuding off them in waves.

~BPOV(Forks, WA same time)~

"Bella, get up! You're going to be late for your first day of school!"

I manage a groan to show my displeasure at being awoken at such an ungodly hour of 7:00am. Yes, dammit! Ungodly! Whoever thought of the idea of having school at 8 o'clock in the morning must have had a sadistic streak or something. Instead of getting up I roll over and shove my head under a pillow to escape Charlie's voice.

"If you don't get up young lady, I will show these pictures of you sleeping like a sloth to all your new schoolmates." Charlie announced with a smirk.

I shot out of bed as fast as I could, but in my attempt to get at Charlie I managed to trip on my blanket and fall on my butt on the floor, to make matters worse, I got up from said floor only to slip on former blanket and fall right back on my butt.

"Wow Bells, that's got to be a new record for most falls in under 3 seconds of getting out of bed!" Charlie was laughing so hard he had to hold onto the doorway.

I immediately growled and kicked the offending blanket while glaring at it as if my glares would somehow spontaneously make it burst into flames. Said blanket just lounged on my bed like nothing ever happened. Stupid blanket.

"Ok, hand them over!" I said, after walking over to Charlie with my hand outstretched

"Hand what over?" he said with an amused smile

"The pictures!"

"I have no idea what you're talking about Bells"

I just glowered at him, and then proceeded to pat his pockets, for the elusive pictures. Finding nothing, I got up and stared hard at him trying to look intimidating.

"Where. Are. They?"

"Bells, Bells, Bells….what makes you think I even have a camera? Or know how to work one for that matter?"

I gaped at him. I've been had. I put on my best pouting face and stared at him. He stood there and smirked back at me knowingly.

"That was mean Charlie!"

"It got you up didn't it?"

"Whatever"

I pushed him out the door and proceeded to get ready for school. As I did memories of the last few weeks began to run across my mind like they were in a marathon race. The changes that just so happened recently and the choices I made in order for them to happen. This was my first week in a new city (well old city I have been here before but not in the last ten years)…great. This was my first day at a new school….double great. I stepped into the shower and let my memories rush through me.

My name is Isabella Marie Swan, I was born to Charlie and Renee Swan. However my parents separated soon afterwards. You see Renee is sort of a free spirit, she likes to go places and can never sit down for too long, sort of like a person with ADHD only hers referred to her inability to live in one spot for too long. Charlie was more like a man of stability and hated change, guess that's why he doesn't know the difference between an iPad and a cooling pad. So my mother left after an argument with Charlie about wanting to move away. She took me with her and we had basically traveled from city to city. I'll admit it, it was fun getting to see different cities, different cultures, and different people. For 17 years we bounced from place to place, and I ended up going to 11 different schools, one for every grade. I spent summers with Charlie up until I turned 7. I was a momma's girl and I never much wanted to leave Renee. I'm sure it hurt Charlie, but I hardly knew the man…even if I did spend summers with him I was mostly pushed to La Push to hang out with his friend Billy's son Jacob. Charlie was the Forks Washington police chief so he didn't really have much time for me even when I came down for the summers. I had finally got tired of it and decided to stay with Renee on the summers instead. At one point Renee and I moved to Phoenix and it was there that she met Phil. In everyway Phil was what Renee was looking for in a man. He was a fledgling minor league baseball player who from time to time was forced to move from place to place, that suited Renee PERFECTLY. However I on the other hand had started to grow tired of the constant change in scenery. I wanted to stay in one spot for once and NOT move. I wanted to see a school for at least more than one year. And finally when Phil got a call to try out for a team in Florida , I decided it was now or never. At first I wanted to stay in Phoenix by myself seeing as I was only a year away from 18. I would get a job, stay in school, look for an apartment….you know the whole nine yards. However my mom had other ideas and decided I wasn't going to get that last yard. She told me there was NO way I would stay by myself on my own. I begged and pleaded, but it was to no avail. The discussion was over and I was moving to Florida …..great. After that Renee and I went our longest ever with out talking. I was mad and depressed because I wanted to stay put, and Renee wouldn't hear anything about it. Finally after a month of not talking to each other Renee came over and asked why I wanted to stay in one place.

~flashback~

"Sweetie, why do you not want to go to Florida? Is there something about that city that you dislike?" Renee asked inquisitively

"No Mom, It's not that," I decided to you use the "mom" card in order to see if it would help me get my way "it's just I'm tired of moving all the time….I want to familiarize myself for once and see the same things for more than a year. Mom…..I have no friends! In the beginning yes it was great seeing all kinds of things. But, what I want the most is a friend. And I can't have that if we move all the time"

"Sweetie, you do have friends. You make friends at all the places we go to"

"Mom…I want a constant friend. Someone I can ALWAYS turn to when you're pissing me off, no offense. Someone I can actually share memories with that are OVER a year long. Mom I want a Best Friend. I also want to have that "high school romance" with someone too, but I can't have that if I'm going to move at the end of the year." I sigh and take a deep breath "What I'm trying to say is….I want stability….for once"

Renee thought for a bit on what I said, she stared at the wall with a far off look that told me she wasn't trying to memorize the wallpaper. She snapped back and then looked at me.

"Is this really what you want? Is this something truly important to you?"

"It is Mom"

"Then I will let you have what you want"

YES! I get to stay on my own in Phoenix!

"However you are NOT staying on your own in Phoenix!"

What the- hold the phone, what?

"But you said I could…."

"You will be staying with your father for the rest of your High School life and beyond if you choose. So those are your two options…Forks with Charlie…or Florida with me" with that she got up to go and left me to choose.

Charlie….I hardly knew the man….and Forks….I hardly knew the place… What have I gotten myself into? Forks was as dreary as dreary can get. Clouds 24/7 rain during 2/3 of the year…..great. On the other hand….this would give me a chance to get to know my father, get a chance at stability, find a best friend, and a love interest. Hmmm decisions, decisions….and then I decided.

"Mom…" I said as I walked over to my mom's room "Mom….I'll go stay with Charlie"

"Then start packing sweetie, your flight is tomorrow"

~end~

"Bells! Please tell me you didn't fall asleep in the shower! It's already 7:45!"

Oh Shit! Had I really been in the shower that long? I rushed out of the shower, managing to stub my toe on the bottom part of the shower stall. Hopping around as a stream of cuss words spewed out of my mouth like water through a broken dam. I dressed quickly in jeans, a black tank top and a black hoody. Quickly combed my hair's brunette locks, brushed my teeth and made sure my chocolate brown eyes had no surprises in the lids. I darted down the stares, grabbed an apple and my backpack and headed for the door.

"Bye Charlie!"

"Uh Bells?"

I came to an abrupt stop at the door having just pulled open the door

"Yeah, Charlie?"

"Are you seriously planning to go to school in those fluffy yellow slippers?"

I look down. Oh crap! I race back up the stairs tripping on the last step but not pausing to fall down instead I use my hands to crawl to my feet as I race back into my room and began putting my Converse's on. Turning around I race back to the front door once again managing to slip past the first step and all the way to the bottom, good thing I held the railing it kept me up. I landed safely at the bottom.

"Safe! Ok bye for real this time Charlie"

"Have fun Bells, stay out of the infirmary" he chuckles lightly as I race to the behemoth of a truck he got me to drive to school in.

Honestly, I love the truck. It's steel not aluminum. Very durable. And rust red(well only because it is rusted). The only thing I don't like about it is its horrendously loud engine. I get into the truck and turn it on bringing the beast to life. I back out of the driveway and head straight to the school. Driving to school wasn't that hard, it was a small town, and not too many roads and they all seemed to lead one direction. Fork's was surrounded by forest for the most part, green trees and foliage surrounded the town like the walls of a prison yard. Only in this case it seemed more like it was keeping something out than in. In a way it looked as though god had reached down and scooped out a portion of the forest where the town is. It was dreary here but at the same time it was beautiful. You didn't get to see much greenery in cities where the residents knowledge of trees extended to the occasional side walk tree surrounded by a small fence. Another difference was how everyone in the town seemed to know who was who. I was lucky enough to remember the names of my neighbors in Phoenix, but in Forks every one knew you. That wasn't always a good thing, after all if they knew you then they most likely knew things about you that could be embarrassing. And you know what they say: little town, big mouths.

As I pulled into the parking lot of the school I sat there and stared at the school and noticed several people already looking at me and pointing as they whispered to themselves. Most likely it was the roar of the engine that caught their attention. But I could guess what they were saying. 'It's the new girl' or 'Chief Swan's Daughter? I didn't know he had one' One thing about me is, I absolutely hated attention. I was quite content to be the fly on the wall no one noticed. Much like I have been for years when moving from city to city. I kept to myself, stayed low and quiet almost becoming invisible to the world. I had gotten pretty good at it too. In big cities no one cared too much about new students, as they were a common occurrence. But in a small town like Forks, the chances of you going invisible while being a new student….well lets just say I had a better chance of winning the lottery. Taking a deep breath I put my hand on the handle and looked one more time out the window at the gathering crowds as people waited for me to get out of the truck so they can get a good look at me.A normal high school life, just like I've been wanting...right? And just like that I already missed my mother.

A/N: So what do you think? It isn't perfect but it's only the beginning. I'll be trying to update weekly or every two weeks but you know how life is. And for those who read this chapter before, will notice I only changed a few things not a whole lot. That's because I actually like this chapter. Few other chapters will change as well. So anyway enjoy and remember characters are out of character and won't act quite the same as you would expect them to.
