Chapter 1: Running Away

Alexia's POV

"Alexia!" I heard my mother scream. "Will you hurry up already?!"

"I'm almost done!" I screamed back at her.

I really hated being human. I was the only daughter of Renesmee and Jacob Black. I had three brothers. Jacob Jr., Mark, and Leo. We were quadruplets actually. But they were all supernaturally gifted. All of them had the best qualities of both vampires and shape shifters, but not me. I was born without any trace of supernatural traits. I was human and I hated it.

When I went down stairs I could see my whole family waiting to eat breakfast. My mother and father had spent a better part of the morning cooking. They usually did. With four wolves in the house we never knew how much food we would all need.

"about time Alexia" my mom said. I gritted my teeth. She hated waiting for me. Actually my whole family hated waiting for me. I was considered to 'slow' by their standards. Thanks to their supernatural speed it took them less then five minutes to get ready in the morning. Whereas it took me 45 minutes to get ready. Which by human standards doesn't seem to be so bad.

As soon as our parents told us it was okay to start eating my brothers, and also my father, got most of the food before I could even get to it. I was just left with one piece of toast. My brothers had enormous amounts of food, and I was stuck with a piece of toast. This is what usually happened, but my parents never seemed to notice. They were always to busy doing something else.

As the only human I often felt neglected and constantly at a disadvantage in my own family. I mean my father and my brothers are always doing official pack business. Or my mother and my brothers were always going hunting. When they were not doing either of those things they were always doing something they saw as being to dangerous for me. For example, cliff diving. They went cliff diving quite often, but I was never allowed to go because they thought it was to dangerous for me. They did not care that other humans did it, they only cared about my safety.

Things like that would not have bothered me, except for the fact that everything they did they considered to dangerous for me just because of the simple fact that I was human. My family doesn't do any kind of activity that would be safe for me, like going to the movies. If I were actually included in some of their activities I would not feel so neglected and sad all the time; a fact that no member of my family knows about. I never even got to spend time with my own mother and father. My humanity has been nothing but a curse for me all of my life.

I wondered how the rest of my family would feel about me if they knew that I existed. I don't know a thing about my own history. I don't anything about my grandparents or great grandparents. My mom does not like to talk about her past, or her family at all. All we knew is that she had a huge argument with her parents and grandparents. They falsely accused her of doing something that she never did but they didn't believe her. So she ran away and wants nothing to do with them.

Running away. That's something that I have thought about doing a lot lately. I wanted to run away. I didn't want my humanity to bother my family anymore.

"Alexia" mom said. "Are you listening? I have been trying to get your attention for the past five minutes"

"What? I'm sorry"

My brothers were snickering. Meanwhile my parents just stared at me with irritated looks.

"I was trying to say that you are going to be on you own again tonight. We're all going out hunting and we won't be back until late. So just make plans with your friends after work so you won't be on your own"

"Okay" I said. That is what they always told me to do. They always told me to just hang out with my friends. Why couldn't I hang out with my own family for a change? I fought and fought the tears that were threatening to fall over.

They all left afterward. I was supposed to leave 10 minutes after they did because I had to go to work. But instead I broke down crying. That is when I finally made my decision to run away. I loved my family, but I was not equal to them. They would never see me as an equal thanks to my humanity. I'm going to run.

I quickly packed up my bags and called for a taxicab. The taxi arrived 20 minutes later and took me to the airport. I still didn't know where I was going. But I had money in my bank account. I could get a job. I was sure that I could easily take care of myself.

As soon as I got to the airport I looked at all of the departing flights to try and decide which one that I would get on. Right now I currently live in Wyoming. We lived very close to Yellowstone National Park because of the amount of animals that my mom and brothers could hunt there.

I looked at all of the flights and finally made my decision.

I got in line to purchase a ticket. The lady looked at me rather oddly. I guess I did look young to be traveling on my own. But since I was 18 years old she could not question it.

"What can I do for you miss?" she asked me.

"I'd like a one way ticket to New York City please" I said in a polite manner.

"Okay dear, I just need your credit card and ID and you will be all good" she said. I gave her the requested items and and she printed out my ticket and boarding pass.

I then gave my bags to be loaded on the airplane. I went through all the usual security. Before I knew it it was time for me to board my plane.

I started crying just as the plane was taking off.
