Eternal Sunset

Chapter 1
I curled up in my corner of the library carrying with me the three books that I chosen from the last shelve in the cultural section. I had just gotten done with the job of cleaning all the library shelves for Mr. Richard when he told me that I could have a small break. While he help the last few people with book to check out.
"Myelin, do you mind closing up for me tonight my daughter Heather is flying in" Mr. Richard came from behind me from his office. I had started working for Mr. Richard two weeks ago when my Aunt April persuaded him to give me a job. He didn't need much persuading because the same day I started my first day of work. I think it had mostly to do with him dating her…and I'm not sure if I should be worried since they have been trying there hardest to hide it from me for the past three months. Yup, I was humoring them for their sake of peace of mind.
"Yeah, sure no problem." I said confidently since the past week I've watched him close up. I got up walking over to where he was standing at the entrance and snatching the keys that he was holding up for me.
"Thanks Myelin, and make sure that you get home safely. A girl your age shouldn't be walking alone at night time." He said right before walking out and into his vintage slug bug.
After I saw his car leave I went over to my corner picking up my books when I felt the cold breeze of the winter blow in from the door I turned around coming face to face with the palest person I ever seen in my life. "S-sorry but were c-closed for the evening"
The gorgeous pale man stepped closer to me, and with each step he took towards me I stepped back. Soon enough I was in the corner. Trapped. "Oh, really the sign outside says it's open. "
"Um, I-I sorry but I c-can't help you. You must now leav-" before I could finish my sentence he grabbed me by the throat. I squirmed under his gripped as I felt myself drift off into unconsciousness.

"Seth can you bring me a wet cloth to clean her cut" I asked my best friend who most thought of as my enemy rather than friend. No one can blame them, it wasn't everyday that you found a werewolf and a vampire best friends. And we weren't the only ones since Edward and Jacob were now closer than ever since the proposal.
"Yeah, sure I'll be right back"
I looked down at the girl wondering why she was targeted by so many vampires. Each attack was becoming closer and closer. I'm not sure how much longer we can go with erasing her memory…soon enough she won't have a clear memory. And what got me worried is that she had no past to recall. Although she didn't know she was adopted she did know that she was different. I knew this because I have been the one watching over her and she wrote in her journal daily.
Seth came back with the wet cloth handing it to me while taking a seat by the window that looked over the city at its best. I thought over what Alice told me about her family line, Myelin was the last of the Historians and her blood held the key to changing the lives of all vampires. That was all we knew about her family and we knew nothing about her own past.
"Zak, don't you think it's better if we just tell her about us. That way she can have a memory of the book she's been ten times over. "
"Yeah, that's what I'm thinking but I'm not sure the Cullen's would like the key to their death knowing of them." I said while cleaning off the deep slash the vampire gave her, what made it worse is that her blood was the sweetest I ever smelled. And I had the feeling the gods made it that way so all vampires who dare suck the blood of her die.
"Well, we don't necessarily have to tell her that she is the key to all destruction towards the vampire race."
I looked down at her and it was getting harder to not lose insight on the objective at hand. I tucked her sandy blond hair behind her ear. Myelin was every kind of beautiful and it made me annoyed when I would read over the lines of her insecurities of her beauty. She once wrote that no guy came up to her because she was ugly and Seth had to hold me back to shouting out the truth. That the guys didn't go up to her because she was too beautiful.
I got up from my seat besides Myelin and walked over to Seth, "And there always the Volturi to worry about if they found out somehow she wouldn't live a day before they came and killed her."
We both sat in silence knowing very well that the best thing we could do for her is keep her from the truth. I had asked Carlisle why they were bothering to keep her alive when she held the destruction of our race. He merely said that she was an innocent just like they found me two years ago.
But the look that he gave me told that he was hiding something….
