A Disastrous New Beginning

CHAPTER ONE

This is not how I had planned my life to pan out. From day-to-day, moment to moment, sometimes I just cannot believe my luck. But I am still grateful, for I am still alive. However there are days I wish I were not. If I had just left a bit earlier..

When my father had asked if I wanted to come back home for the holidays and maybe stay longer, I had jumped at the chance. However, my friends could not see why I would wanna move from sunny Phoenix, Arizona to drowned down, rainy Forks, Washington.

Although what had happened is quite dreadful, and I got told many times that if it were anyone else that they would have committed a un likely sin. Although I didn't care, honestly. Nothing would ever bring my family back. And how I had missed each one of them. From time to time, I get the occasional threat. Because some people just couldn't seem to think after going through such a disaster how anyone could be okay afterwards.

But I was, I struggled. tremendously, but I was still here.

The best part about moving, was starting over. Nobody would even recognize me, except of course for being the Chief of Police' daughter. And of course I couldn't forget my loving brother,how I missed him. I remembered when we were very young, the memories. They were just endless, it seemed. But they were, especially the one where he couldn't make it to any of the funerals, or the awakes, or even the memorial services.

I was still beyond pissed at him. I just couldn't figure out what the hell his problem was. It's not like he was a teenager anymore, he had matured.

But I would soon discover I was wrong. I had been very, very wrong. Yet, I would soon find out the real problem.

Even if I died trying.
