Disclaimer: This is Stephanie Meyer's world. I am just adding my thoughts to it.
This is my first story. Or at least, my first FF. I am writing some own work, but have been wanting to write a FanFiction too. I appreciate comments :)
Let's begin!
Chapter 1 – First Day
Beep, beep! Beep, beep!
I groan before turning over and hitting my alarm clock. I smile to myself when the room goes silent again. I feel myself drifting off to sleep again.
"Rashel Alanna Black! Get your butt out of bed, breakfast is ready!"
"I am coming, daddy." I yell back at him. I open my eyes and take a peek at my alarm. It is only 7am. But then I remember that it is the first day of school today. Mom and dad enrolled us all four in Tahoma Senior High School.
Chase and Will are seniors, Leah is a junior and I am a sophomore, even though we are older than that. I am eighteen, Leah is 46 and my twin brothers are twenty-two. But our parents thought it was best to enroll us all at the same school. It is safer, and we can cover the other when something comes up. My brothers and I can read minds. I have a different power as well, I can control the minds of people. I used to do this a lot when I was younger, I always made my brothers gave up their toys. I learned to control it, and I only use it now when I am in danger. But with this power comes something else at well, I am able to have silent conversations with people that normally aren't mind readers. That is what I love most about it.
We are all immortal, that is how Leah still looks like she is twenty. My mother is half-vampire and half-human. No one knew she could exist. But after my grandparents, Bella and Edward, got married… it was clear that miracles happened. They named their miracle Renesmee Carlie Cullen.
When my mother was barely minutes old, my father imprinted on her. I will explain a little later what imprinting is. First, I will tell you about my father. Jacob William Black, chief of the La Push pack. My dad is a shape-shifter. When he was sixteen, he shifted for the first time. He claimed it was because of happiness, shifting occurs when there is a strong emotion. My dad is seven feet tall, so it is no mystery where my brothers got their height from. My grandmother, Bella, describes my dad as a happy person. She told me how he extends his own happiness to the people around him. My dad is cheery, passionate, adventurous, a leader… but like all wolves he is hot-headed. When he first discovered he was a wolf, he often shifted when he was angry. But he learned to control it.
My parents had children, first they had Chase and Will. And then me. Chase and Will are both around 6'7", even though they are twins… they have many differences. They won't be seen by humans, but for shape-shifter and vampires it is clear.
Chase has this calm appearance, he is a natural leader. With his black hair and light brown eyes, and our tanned skin… he looks handsome. Of course he has a lean body, and the girls follow him around.
Will has a bit more of a temper, and sometimes we compare him to uncle Paul. I heard stories about how Paul had a temper, until he met daddy's sister. Will has black hair as well, but his eyes are green. They are my grandpa Edward's human eyes. He is also lighter than Chase. But with his lean body and bad boy appearance, he has the girls screaming his name.
Then of course there is me, I am sure you already realized that my name is Rashel. I am shorter than my wolf-family, I inherited that from my vampire-family. I am around 5'7", with very dark brown, and wavy hair. My skin is a shade lighter than Will's, but still tanned. My eyes are gray, my dad told me I have his mother's eyes. And I know he still thinks of my grandmother, each time he looks in my eyes.
My body is like my brothers lean and muscular, but I have curves as well. I look like a real girl. My dad always has to keep his hair trimmed, but since my brothers and me are part vampire… our hair doesn't bother us, after being shifted. My brothers keep it short as well, but I leave it long. It reaches past the middle of my back.
When I was little, and we lived in Forks... my aunt Alice always brought me shopping with her. I love shoes and clothes, and since I have the right genes, I can walk and run and even fight in high heels without having trouble at all.
That brings me to the fights, and the reason why we exist. We are designed to fight our one and only enemy, the vampire. Now you might think, isn't she part vampire. And indeed, I am. We only hunt the vampires that feed on human blood, my mom and her vampire-family feed on animal blood. I don't need to survive on blood, but I do love my steak very rare.
In human form, our body heals within second. We posses superhuman strength and speed, we also have a high durability rate with sharp senses. Once turned into a wolf, we have enhanced superhuman strength and speed. We can also communicate with our pack telepathically. Our teeth can cut through the hard body of a vampire with ease.
Now you might wonder if me and my brothers are different, and yes we are. In human form, our skin is harder and it has a faint glow in the sunlight. All are senses are sharper and we are stronger and faster. This is in both human and wolf form.
I told you, that I would explain imprinting. My dad once explained it to Bella, he told her it's not like love at first sight, really. It's more like... gravity moves... suddenly. It's not the earth holding you here anymore, she does... You become whatever she needs you to be, whether that's a protector, or a lover, or a friend.
My dad explained it to us as well, and I will try to explain it to you. A shape-shifter imprints on the person he's bound to be with, this happens the moment he sees her. All the wolves describe it as being pulled toward that person, while a glowing heat fills them; the connection with everything else is severed, and only the imprintee is left to matter, leaving them with a deep need to provide the imprintee anything she needs or wants.
When a wolf and his imprintee are apart, they will be both in pain. We don't know what would happen if a wolf was rejected by his imprintee. This is almost impossible… the wolf and his mate are the perfect match, he will be anything she may need or want.
We don't know why we imprint, Sam believes that a shape-shifter imprints on the person with whom he has the best chance to have little wolves. My grandpa Billy has a different opinion. He thinks that imprinting is designed to make the wolf stronger.
I haven't imprinted yet, but I can shift into a wolf. Like I said before, the first time we shift is triggered by an emotional happening. Chase shifted when he realized he was in love with Leah. He was so happy after their first kiss, that it made him shift. Leah and me are close, and she told me that she used to worry about never imprinting. She was the only female wolf, and thanks to Leah… I know I am going to imprint sooner or later.
When Chase was born, and Leah saw him for the first time. She felt the pull, and has waited for him to grow up and decide what Leah is to him. They have been married for four years now. Leah has moved with us to Black Diamond in Washington. They have their own house on our property.
Will has a different story, he didn't shift because of happiness. No, it was worse. When he was sixteen, a close friend of him died. And Will blamed himself for this, his friend was killed by a vampire. And Will wasn't there to save him. He was feeling to guilty and mad at himself that he shifted. He immediately went after the vampire and ripped him apart and burned him.
Me on the other hand, I changed because of jealousy and anger. When I was sixteen, I had a crush on a boy. Donovan James. He was the hottest guy in school and he told me he liked me. When he invited me to his party, I took hours to dress up for him. I hoped I would get my first kiss. But when I arrived at the party, I saw my best friend and Donovan making out. I was so angry and jealous that I ran into the woods and shifted. I felt myself heating up and trembling, and before I knew it… I was a wolf. My fur was as white as snow, but my I had a brown spot on my forehead.
We moved to Black Diamond two weeks ago. And my room is still a mess. Everything is in boxes. The only thing unpacked is my bed. We painted the walls a light red and the floor is made of wood. I didn't unpack anything; if I did… it would make it final. I missed Forks. I missed my family and my friends. But I know we had to move away. And Black Diamond didn't look too bad.
I got out of bed, and walked into my own bathroom. Our house is quite big. Will and I have our own room with bathroom. Our parents have the master bedroom and master bathroom. Downstairs there is a kitchen, a living room, and a big dining room. My bathroom is white marble. There is a black shower, a black bathtub, a black toilet and a black sink.
I undress and turn on the shower and get in. I turn the water to the hottest stand and let it roll over me. We wolves run a little hotter than the average human.
After twenty minutes of standing in the hot shower, I turn the water off and get out. I take a towel from the linen closet and wrap it around me. I make my way back to my room.
I open a box labeled Tops and look through it. I see a red halter top, and take it out of the box. Then I move to a box labeled Cardigans and I look through this one, too. After a few minutes I spot the one I was looking for. A black long sleeved cardigan. I wouldn't need the warmth of it, but I would look silly in a halter top. I move to the next box, this one is labeled Underwear, and I take a black thong from it. I wouldn't need a bra, the halter top was already shaped. The next box is labeled Denim and I take a black denim out of it. And last, but definitely not least the box labeled Shoes. I already know which ones. The red pumps I bought with Aunt Alice a week before we moved away.
I quickly get dressed and then put in my ruby studs and make my way down to the kitchen. When I enter I already see Leah and Chase sitting at the table. Will is outside and mom and dad are cooking behind the counter.
"Good morning, everybody." I say and make my way over to my parents.
"Morning, baby. Are you excited for your first day?" My dad asks as he leans down to kiss my cheek.
I nod and grab a bowl form the cupboard. I take the box of cereal and pour some in my bowl. I add the milk and then go sit at the table.
"So, Leah… what are you going to do with your ring?" I ask. Since she can't wear her wedding ring to high school.
She smiles at me, and then shows me the new necklace. She put her ring on the necklace.
"Smart!" I should remember that for when I get married, I thought.
You are not getting married, Rashel. I heard Will think.
I sigh and decide to ignore him.
"What car are we taking? Or can I ride my bike?" I ask excitedly.
"NO!" My dad says loudly in my direction.
"But… why not, daddy? I can ride!" I tell him with a pouty lip.
"You will drive with your brothers and Leah for the first few weeks. After that… we will talk about it." He says and then kisses my mom on her lips and heads out.
"It's not fair. I am big enough to go alone." I mumble.
A hand reaches for my shoulder and squeezes it. "I know, sweetie. But he is your dad. You are his baby girl. He doesn't want to lose you. I will talk to him when he gets back. But just listen to him for now?" My mom asks.
I nod, "Can I at least drive?" I ask her.
She nods and adds, "Yeah, but take Chase's Dodge. It has tinted windows."
I nod and then grab my bag from the chair next to me. I drop my iPhone in, it already has my wallet and the few books and notebooks. I grab the keys from Chase and head out to the car.
After a few minutes, Chase, Will and Leah join me in the car. I turn the key and the car roars to life. I always loved cars and bikes. Dad turned me into grease monkey. I turn onto the driveway and make my way down to the road. We live near the high way and I steer the car onto it and make my way to Tahoma. I wonder how the first day will be.
After 15 minutes we spot the school, we park the car and then make our way to the main office. We need to register, and get our schedules. I hand the keys back to Chase, who is walking hand in hand with Leah. I see all the guys staring at me with a smile on the face. And some girls glare at me. I quickly look towards my feet as we make our way to the office. Once inside, we tell the short lady behind the table that we are the Black's. She nods and immediately gets up to get the forms and the papers.
We all have to fill in something and then she hands us our schedule, a map of the school and the code to our locker.
I have English first. I love English, I probably have read all the books they will assign. But I will keep quiet, they don't need to think I am a know-it-all. I wait for Leah to say goodbye to Chase, her locker is next to mine. Once we leave the office, her smile disappears.
"Leah… are you okay?" I ask worriedly.
She nods, "Yeah… I just miss him. I don't like being away from him."
I put my arm around her shoulder and kiss her cheek. "I know… but you will see him at lunch. It won't be that long."
She nods and then spots our lockers. We head over to them and try to open them.
Leah's locker opens immediately, but mine is being stubborn. I know I could tear it apart, but I don't want to get too much attention on my first day.
"It helps if you hit it." A deep, but annoying voice says.
I look to my right and see a guy standing. He is about 6 feet. And has blonde hair and baby blue eyes. He also has a little tan, which tells me he wasn't born here.
I do as he said, and the locker opens.
"Thank you. I am Rashel Black." I say, shaking his hand.
"I know. I am Camron Smith, but you can call me Cam." He answers with a wink.
I smile back, I know he is flirting with me. But somehow I doesn't affect me.
"We don't get many new faces here, where did you come from?"
"Me and my family moved up here from Forks, Washington." I tell him, when I suddenly see a tall figure appear. Uh oh!
"Hi, I am Will and this is my sister." He says, shoving me to the side a little.
Will is almost two heads taller than Camron. And I can see him taking a step back.
"Were you flirting with her? Because if you do, I will promise you… I will hurt you!" He says and I can see his hair at the back of his neck raising.
"Will! It is okay. We were just talking." I say in a whisper.
Talking is not the only thing he wants, Rash. Didn't you enter his mind? He asks me in my head.
You know I don't do that all the time. I am sorry. I will be more careful.
Leah noticed our mental conversation and tried to distract Camron. "Hi, I am Leah. Nice to meet you. Can I ask you where room 123 is?"
"Su-sure… it is right down the hall, you go left at the first split. And then it is the second door on your right."
"Thank you!" And she walk away.
Will is still staring at Camron, and I start to pull him away from him.
"Come on, Will. Class is starting." He reluctantly follows me.
You should stay away from him. He has a reputation. I hear him say in my head.
I nod. "This is me, Will. I will see you at lunch."
He kisses me on the cheek before running to his own class.
I enter the room and walk to the teacher. I hand her my slip and she signs it. She points me to a seat at the back. I take a seat and wait for the rest of the students to enter.
"Hi, you must be one of the Black's. My name is Kayla Smith." Smith? I look up at her. She has blonde hair, blue eyes and a tan. She must be Camron's younger sister.
"Yes, I am Rashel. Nice to meet you. Can I ask a question?" I ask her.
"Sure, go ahead." She says with a genuine smile.
"Is Camron your brother?" And I see her nod.
"I saw you met him. I am sorry if he caused any trouble. He thinks he can have any girl he sees. Don't fall for his charms! He is player."
When hearing this from his sister, my jaw dropped. She laughs at my expression.
"You didn't think a sister could say that about her own brother, huh? Well it is the truth. Be careful, Rashel. He will not take no for an answer, he has had half the school already."
I look at her and then nod. "Thank you, for telling me."
"No problem! Can I sit here?" I nod with a smile.
"I saw your brother."
"Which one?" I ask her.
"Which one? You mean you have more?" To which I nod.
"Yes, I have two brothers. They are twins."
"Oh, wow… I saw the one wearing the dark blue T-shirt?" She saw Chase.
"That was Chase, he is the calm one. Will has a bit of a temper. But he is sweet when you get to know him." I tell her after I saw the look in her eyes.
"Oh good. You scared me there for a bit." She says with a smile.
"Okay class… everyone is here. Let's start!" Ms. Byron says and she starts handing us our reading list. I take a look and saw I read all the books on it.
After a few hours, it was lunch. Kayla has been in all my classes up till now. And I think we could be good friends. We are walking into the cafeteria and I turn to ask her if she wants to sit with us. "I want you to meet my brothers and Leah."
"Sure?" She answers nervously. I smile.
"Relax! They won't bite you." And I try to hide my smile, as to how ironic it sounds.
We pay for our lunch and then I spot Chase waving at me. I make sure Kayla is following me and then make our way to their table.
"Hey guys… I like you to meet Kayla. Kayla, this is Leah."
Leah shakes her hand, "Nice to meet you, Kayla."
"That is Chase, you saw him in the hallway." Chase also shakes her hand and then wraps his arm around Leah and pulls her closer.
"And this is Will." I say gesturing to my second brother.
Will doesn't offer his hand. He is only staring at Kayla with wide eyes. And Kayla is reflecting him.
Oh boy! Will imprinted. I hear Chase say in my head,
And all I can do is nod.
