"Come on. Stop being so ridiculous. It's really not going to be that bad." My mother stated.
"Your mother is right. You two really just need to give Zimbabwe a chance. I mean, look out the window. Does it truly not amaze you?" In truth, the scenery truly was amazing. I could see
all the wildlife and the perfect sunny skies, but I still despised it. My twin sister, Alice, and I glared at them. I couldn't believe they had the nerve to say that that to us! They pretty much
just kicked us out of the country just because of a few slightly out of control parties. I could tell Alice thought the same thing.
She huffed and looked out the window, grimacing in digust. I could tell mom was on the verge of screaming at us. Well, ain't tha damn good for her?!? I was pretty fucking mad at her,
too! I knew it was her who came up with the idea to send us to Africa to stay with my Godparents and my freak of a Godsister, Isabella. It was her who kicked us out of our own home!
Dad was just doing whatever she wanted. just like he always did!
Ugh! I hated them both!
I shuddered at the thought of having to spend 6 months with that dork Isabella. I mean, I hadn't seen her since we were twelve, but she was a complete freakshow back then! I mean,
she had braces, glasses, pimples, everything a boy could despise in a girl. Not to mention, her nose was always burried in a book, the nerd that she was! It may have been 5 years since
I'd seen her, but I was pretty sure she hadn't changed much.
I looked over at Alice, noticing she was still staring out the window in disdain. I grabbed my iphone out of my pocket at almost the exact same time Alice grabbed hers. There's twin
telepothy for you! I started texting her.
Edward- Can you believe them! Do U hate them as much as I do rite now???
Alice- Probably more. How could the send us to this god awful place. I mean, there's not a mall within a 100 mile radius! And we have to stay with Isabella. :(
Edward- Of course. U would be thinkin of shoppin rite now. And I know, that girl was a complete freak!!! Talk about a nerd!
Alice- I kno. UGH. I suppose she wouldn't kno about any good shopping places, would she..
Edward- Not likely, compared 2 the plaid ang ugly skirts she used to wear.
Alice- *Shudders*
Suddenly, Alice and I were interrupted by a loud voice coming from the speakers of our private jet. "We will start descending in exactly 1 and a half minutes. Please turn of all cellular
devices and/or any other machines hat could disrupt the plane's signal and fasten your seatbelts. Thank you." I turned my phone off and noticed that my dad was sighing and hanging up on someone on his
Blackberry. It was probably buisiness with Med Co. Everythins=g is nowadays. Ever since he founded that damn company he's been on his Blackberry every second of the day.
Alice and I sighed and shared one more despair-filled look before buckling our seatbelts and leaning our heads against the chairs.
I felt the jet slowly start to descend into the small airport, covered in dust. Wow. This'll be a big change from Forks. Maybe it won't be so bad, being able to work on my tan. My hope
suddenly diminished when I remembered who we were staying with. The grimace appeared on my face yet again.
"Thank you and I hope you had a greatt flight, Cullens."
I mumbled "whatever", and slowly, solemly stretched up to the compartment to get mine and Alice bags. She moped around me, not the usual energetic, excited Alice she always was.
Might as well get it over with. I walked down to aisle and stepped out of the jet, holding my breath. Luckily, as Renee and Charlie came into view, Isabella was no where to be seen. The
nerd probably had her head buried in a book and was too nervous to come out of her stupid little cave. I thought this with an internal sneer.
"Hey, Renee. Hey, Charlie." Alice and I chorused, mumbling.
"Hello, kids. Sorry you have to be sent here, but we promise it'll be pretty fun." Charlie said with a grin. Charlie was a cool guy. He always used to bring Alice and I candy when we were
kids. I smiled and lightly thanked him, as did Alice. We said our rude goodbyes to our parents and they left to go back on the jet. I could tell they were genuinely upset about leaving us,
and even though I hated to admit it, I knew they thought this was for the best.
We exchanged a quiet, melancholy conversation with our Godparents about what they did here in Zimbabwe, but I wasn't really paying attention. I was desperate to ask about Isabella,
but I just couldn't build up the courage to do it.
Suddenly, Alice blurted out, "So, where's Isabella. We've been dying to see our Godsister for quite some time." I almost laughed out loud when she said that. I was slightly curious about
how she looked as a teenage-nerd, though. Hahaha.
Renee and Charlie shared a confused glance for a second and then Renee answered, still in a slightly confused and nervous tone. "Ummm... she's down at the river. Should be back any
minute now."
Just as she said that, I saw something come over a hill, causing quite a commotion. A low, loud rumbling and snorting sound started off in the distance.
"Oh, shit. She's done it again." Charlie mumbled. Sharing a freaked look with Renee.
A girl appeared at the top of the hill, running incredibly fast. I couldn't help my jaw dropping when I saw her beauty, and the fact tha she was accomponied by a leopard, only a few steps
ahead of her. The girl had long, curly Mahogany hair that hung in ringlets framing her face. She was wearing nothing but shorts and a tank top and had incredible, tan skin that seemed o
have no blemishes whatsover. Her eyes were the most amazing part, though. They were a perfect rich chocolate brown, with gorgeous highlights in them. I was brought out of my daze,
when I heard her screaming "Run, run!" and when I saw the huge herd of water buffalo following after her. The most amazing thing, though, was that she was smiling. A herd of angry
water buffalo were following her and she was smiling? Who was his girl!?!
Charlie put a hand on his face and started running, dragging us all along with him until we reached the side of the house. I peeked over the side only to see the girl already inches from it.
God, she was fast! She raced past the house and to the side, collapsing behind a small building, a seperate part of the mansion. The leopard following her. Oh no! What if it attacked her?
"There's Bella for you." Charlie said, rolling his eyes. I gaped a him, and then at Bella who was now inches away from the leopard.
"Shouldn't we go help her!?! The leopard is going to attack her!"I had to yell, for the herd had finally reached us and was making a deafening noise. I still couldn't believe what I was
hearing. THAT was Bella. The complete nerd had turned into a complete and utter beauty!?!
"Oh, that? Of cours, not. That's her pet, Amira." he said as if I was an idiot.
"She has LEOPARD... for a PET?!?"
"It's common here in Africa. Well, not exactly common. But we have a few other pet animals that call our veteraniray (SPELLED IT WRONG! I KNOW!) clinic home." Renne said in a kind
voice.
OK, so she's beutiful, adventurous, and has a leopard for a pet? HOT!
I hope you like it so far. I think I'm going to make this one pretty long. It's my first All-Human story. BTW, sorry about the mispellings, my 't' and 'i' keys aren't working very well. PLEASE READ, REVIEW, AND FAVE!!
