Prologue
(Lilly's POV)

My name is Lilly and I have a secret. A secret so secret that I don't even know what it is to be honest and a secret that I would never believe if it wasn't happening to me. There's something wrong with me. Its almost like I'm in a comic book full of super hero's with magical powers. Only I'm not the hero, or even the sidekick for that matter. I'm the bad guy.

Let me start from the beginning. I was born somewhere in a cabin in Alaska and unlike any other 18 year old, I remember everything. Every day, every hour, every minute since I was fully developed in my mother's womb. I remember killing my own mother.

You see, unlike other newborn children, I was born with a mouth full of teeth that I never lost. They are sharp and pearly white. Always have been. As if on instinct, I chewed my way put of my Mother's stomach and not long after I was out and in her arms...she died. That's not even what gets me though. Regardless of what I did to her, she still loved me. She told me so. Right before she died.

There was no one there but the two of us, so no one was around to help her. 4 days later, on a rare sunny day, I was found by a man. I knew he was different as well but not the same different as me. I remember he sparkled in the sun and had gold eyes. He took me from my dead mother's arms and torched the cabin with my mother inside, but not before taking a few mementos for me.

A gold locket with my mother's picture inside with an Italian inscription engraved. Con tutto il cuore... (with my whole heart...) She said it has been passed down from mother to daughter on the day of their births for decades. It is my most prized possession.

He also grabbed my mother's diary with all her thoughts, and favorite poetry and quotes from books, movies and some she wrote herself. Lastly, he took a small, old jewelry box. Inside held a sapphire ring, a gold chain, a gold charm bracelet, and a photo of my mother and a beautiful man that I can only assume to be my father. He is pale, with dark hair like mine and from what I can see, black eyes. I have my mother's green eyes.

Getting back to my story, he lit the house on fire and took me to an orphanage in Canada where I was adopted 4 years later by my current parents, Anna and John McLean.

I grew up like any ordinary child, but with an extraordinary intelligence. Anna and John didn't want to put me in any special schools because they wanted me to be with kids my age and grow up like all the other kids. That was all fine and dandy up until I hit puberty. That is when my senses heightened along with speed and strength appeared along with the craving for blood. I can hear a whispered conversation from far across the parking lot and smell everything around me. I can see perfectly in the dark as if it were light out, along with every dust particle around me. I run faster than any car or plane and can pick up a car with little to no problem.

As for the blood, it started with me liking to eat bloody steaks and escalated from there. I began sneaking into hospitals and stealing blood, but then things began to become too noticeable after awhile. I tried to just stop, but the cravings and burn in my throat began getting worse and I was having trouble being around my friends and family. So I began sneaking out at night once a week after my parents fell asleep to the dirtier parts of town and killing criminals for their blood. It was the best idea I could come up with, and the way I see it, I am saving more lives than I am taking.

I kept everything hidden from my friends and family up until one night, my parents caught me coming in one night from my hunt. I knew I couldn't tell them the truth. They would be afraid of me and send me away, or God knows what. So I told them that I snuck out to meet a friend and on my way home I was attacked and killed him. I begged them not to call the police or an ambulance. Another thing that developed was that my skin and bones became nearly impenetrable and is always iced cold, but in Canada, excuses aren't hard to come up with, but If a doctor checked me over or they tried to hospitalize me, a needle would never go through my skin and they would discover that there was something different about me.

I ended up convincing my parents not to call anybody, but the cost was that we would be moving. John is a lawyer for the prosecutor's office so a new job wasn't hard for him to find. He wanted our family to lay low, so he found a job in a small town in Washington called Forks. So after saying farewells to all of my life long friends, we began our drive to our new home.
