This is a TWOSHOT that came to me. I hope you all enjoy it. Read and review.
CHAPTER ONE
I was on the La Push beach with my little-sister and several of her school friends, mainly because Bella begged me to come. One of the girls I had taken an extreme dislike to she was one of those people who you knew no one would ever actually be best friends with because she would spill their secrets to everyone. I stared at Jessica the annoying twit who was constantly making fun of everyone when they weren't in ear shot of course. She had just got done freaking out about my natural eye-color which I was surprised about myself since I was full Quileute. ( my eye-color . )
"Bella like said that you sang and like wrote songs." Jessica said as the conversation shifted away from her. I rolled my eyes at her attempt to get the conversation focused back onto her. "Yeah I do." I said as I chewed on a piece of licorice. Jessica raised her eyebrows at me, "Wow like really!? Could you like sing something?" I wasn't going to at first but then I decided what the heck, I wouldn't lose anything and it would shut Jessica up for a little while. "Sure. Mike can I borrow your CD player?" I said un-enthusiastically. Bella gave me a look and mouthed 'sorry' to me. I gave her a small smile to show her I didn't hold it against her as I finished off the licorice and reached into my backpack for my music CD. I put my CD into the player and started to skip it to the number I wanted. "Does this song have like a story behind it?" Jessica asked her voice grating on my nerves. "Yes. I wrote this after my best-friend died." I said not bothering to hide the ice in my tone. I reached the number I wanted and turned the volume up before setting the player down. ("See You Again" DOES NOT BELONG TO ME! )
It's been a long day without you, my friend

When I see you again.
I grabbed my water bottle and took a swig before I turned from the Sea that I had been looking out at as I sang and was surprised to find that my sister's group had been joined by several Quileute boys. Three were standing near my sister's friends and three others were standing forty feet away from our small group. I raised an eyebrow because the three standing away from the group were shirtless and shoeless and very muscular and tall. I checked out the three not bothering to hide that fact as I raked my eyes over their forms enjoying the view. When I reached the oldest looking one I felt a shiver run down my spine as I stared into his warm caramel colored eyes. He was looking at me like he had never seen a woman before and for a moment we just stared at each other then Jessica cleared her throat and I pulled my eyes away from him to look at the annoying twit. "Wow! That was amazing. Like wow. Really you should totally try out for a group of something you would like totally get in!" Jessica said her voice growing higher and sounding like fingernails on a chalkboard. "Thanks." I muttered as I popped my CD out of the player and put it back in its case before putting the case into my backpack and zipping it up. Before anyone else could say anything my cell-phone rang and I picked it up on the second ring recognizing the number.
"Hi Kujou." I said somewhat happily as I pulled my backpack up onto my shoulder and started walking away from the group. I swear I heard a growl from behind me but I ignored it thinking I was hearing things. We talked for a while about different things that were happening before Kujou went silent. I found a large boulder and sat down on it running a hand through my short turquoise and lavender streaked black hair messing it up only for a second before it fell back into its messy Shaggy Bob style. "So what did you really call about Kujou?" I stated more then asked. "Do…you remember when Mai…died?" Kujou asked his voice sounding nervous. I pinched the bridge of my nose and took a deep breath letting it out slowly as I remembered the day that my best-friend had died. "Of course…what about it?" I asked trying to forget the images that my Eidetic memory had pulled to the forefront of my mind.
"Do you remember the paramedic who found you?" Kujou asked. I thought for a second before the image of a 5'7 beautiful Asian woman came to mind. "Yeah her name was…Kiyoshi right?" I replied. "Yes. …we're getting married." Kujou said. I blinked in surprise, "Oh….well congratulations. I hope you two have a wonderful marriage." I said confused by why he had called me to tell me this. We weren't close and since the group had been dispersed after Mai died we hadn't been in contact for two reasons. The first was security reasons but the second was because I had pushed the group away completely after Mai had died, I hadn't wanted to let anyone close to me again. It was too painful to lose them. "I called to tell you because she works for the CIA and two months ago they found out who was responsible for the attack that killed Mai…and just three days ago he was executed." Kujou said. I felt my heart stop for a second as I absorbed that information. I wanted to ask him who it was and why he had waited so long to tell me but my throat was tight and I couldn't speak. After a minute of silence Kujou spoke again, "I just thought that you should know we won't talk again. Goodbye Jinx." Kujou said before he hung up.
I pressed the call end button and sat there just looking out at the sea my mind drifting over the events that lead up to the death of my best-friend and the horrible things I had done afterwards to try and dull the pain. "Of course the government probably wouldn't label them as 'horrible things'." I thought with a sneer as I remembered the sizeable number of terrorist and black-market traders that I had killed, all with the government's blessings of course, as I attempted to locate the person behind the attack that had killed by best friend.
The sun was going down and I could feel the chilly air growing colder but still I sat there just remembering the past until I heard Bella hollering my name. I stood up and brushed off my jeans as I walked towards Bella's voice. I didn't realize how far I had walked while talking to Kujou until then. As I walked into view of my sister I could hear the relief in her voice, "There you are! You were gone for three hours!" Bella exclaimed and I could hear the faint worry in her voice as well. "Sorry, I was talking to…an old friend." I said slinging my arm around Bella's shoulders. "So I take it we are ready to go?" I asked as we walked towards the van and the group of kids. "Yeah…Hey E do you know the Quileute legends?" Bella asked biting her lower lip in thought. I raised an eyebrow in surprise before shaking my head, "No I wasn't brought up on the Rez, even before Charlie and Renee." I replied.
Jessica had overheard my last comment and jumped on it. "What do you mean you weren't brought up on the Reservation even before Charlie and Renee?" Jessica asked her voice purposefully louder than necessary to attract everyone's attention. "Shouldn't you like call your parents mom and dad not by their names?" I felt my lips twitch into a snarl and I wanted to rip her a new one but settled on answering as calmly as I could, "I am Quileute by birth, I was adopted by Charlie and Renee two weeks before they found out that Renee was pregnant."
"I was wondering why you two didn't look anything alike." Mike said. I shrugged and that was the end of it or at least that would have been until Jessica spoke up. "So like how old are you? Were you orphaned before you were adopted?" I felt my body shake slightly as I tried to hold in the rage that was screaming at me to shred this twit into tiny pieces. However before I could say or do anything Bella spoke up, "Have you ever heard of the phrase mind you own business?" Bella said anger in voice, my shakes stopped and I shrugged off the weird tingly feelings I had been getting as well as I hid my smile, proud of my little sister for speaking up. That shut Jessica up especially since the other teen's agreed with Bella's statement. I walked over to my motorcycle, "Bella did you want a lift from me or were you going to ride with someone else?" I asked as I straddled my bike. "I'll ride with you." Bella replied before saying goodbye to her friends and I gave her my backpack to hold before she got on behind me. I started up my bike and pulled out, "Wow! E your hot!" Bella hollered in my ear, her arms wrapped around my waist. I felt my one eyebrow quark upward before I laughed and hollered, "Thanks Izzy but that's a little odd coming from you."
I knew Bella was rolling her eyes before she un-laced her hands and punched me in the shoulder with one, "Not like that you idiot! I mean you feel like you have a fever." Bella hollered back. I just shrugged her concerns away, "I feel fine." I hollered back before concentrating on the road, what with the constant rain, night approaching quickly and the speed I was going I knew if I didn't keep my eyes open I could wreak but strangely that just made me want to go faster. I didn't but I really wanted to, we reached home faster then we normally would have. I came to a stop in front of the house and let Bella off, "Aren't you coming inside?" Bella asked. "No I need to get to the airport I have to be in Hawaii for a live show." I replied. "When are you coming home again?" Bella asked as she handed me my backpack. "I'll be back in two weeks." I said with a smile, before given Bella a quick hug. "Make sure you don't have too much of a strange time without me." I said before I started backing out of the driveway. "Oh and remind Charlie that I'll be gone for the next two weeks will you?" I hollered to Bella who was now at the door. When she nodded I waved and then took off towards the airport where I hopped on a flight straight to Hawaii.
I checked with the band again making sure we were in sync on the song list before I went to my reserved hotel room and took a shower and picked out my outfit from the clothes my manager had stocked into my hotel room. The show would be for 10 days straight and I was scheduled to be on the act on the first day, I would have the next eight days to myself I would have to show up on the last day so they could get pictures off all the acts together. I finally chose this outfit. ( . /-lhsS7uEEvWk/Ttttn1uiNzI/AAAAAAAABYM/-uLZ0ybh46s/s1600/PUNK_RAVE_gothic_punk_flare_sleeve_ )
Then I put on my make-up and painted on my black eye mask with the corner near my eye a bright red color to pop the silver color of my colored after pinning up my short hair I glued on my thigh length purple wig. It was always best to have it firmly on. You never knew what was going to happen, especially around thousands of people who adore you. Then it was time and I went out on the stage, "Hello Hawiia! I'm Ai and we are the band Broken." I said into the mike making sure to keep my voice two pitches higher then my normal voice since my normal voice was a husky alto. Song List: Title (singer)
Monster (Skillet)
Jekyll & Hyde (Plumb)
Sweet Dreams (Eurythmics)
Light 'Em Up (Fall Out Boys)

After the last song I smiled and waved goodbye to the screaming crowd before I headed off stage. "You need to get your photo taken and then I have a magazine interview scheduled for you." My manager said. I cracked my neck and shoulders trying to relieve some of the pressure that built up before nodding at my manager and following her to the limo that would be driving us around. I didn't bother saying goodbye to the band knowing they were busy with their own things, especially since they knew that I was only staying on with the band for another six months since that's when my contract expired. Originally it had just been for my cover so I could get into certain countries without them being too suspicious, now it was just a reminder of the reason my best friend was killed. All of the band members were searching for jobs elsewhere and I knew as talented as they were they would find a job no problem. After the photo's and the interview which took several hours buy itself I was finally taken back to my hotel room where I wanted to just collapse on the bed. However first the security team went over my room for bugs which they found several as usual, reporters always wanted to know who I really was. Finally the room was bug free and the security left, immediately I scrubbed the make-up off and peeled off my wig before taking a long relaxing bath while listening to soft jazz music. When I finally pulled myself out of the bath I pulled on an oversized black T-shirt that went to mid-thigh and collapsed onto my bed.
I yawned as I woke up taking a deep breath in threw my nose and letting it out slowly, I stayed still for several moments afterwards but my internal alarm clock refused to let me fall back asleep so with a groan I peeled my eyes open and sat up. Since I had the day to myself which meant that I would have to sneak out of the hotel since even my security didn't know who I was. I pulled on a pair of hip hugger jeans that I found hidden in the back of the closet and a white high-neck tank-top and a pair of white sandals before grabbing my backpack and after checking out the windows I climbed out one and over several rooms then down the emergency exit ladder. I decided to walk to a nearby café and get breakfast before wondering around Hawaii checking out the sights. I was alone on the trail in the forest when a disgusting scent slammed into my nostrils and I nearly up-chucked. It smelt like rotting fish mixed with burnt sugar and vomit acid. While I was busy keeping my breakfast down I felt a cold chill run down my spine, someone or something was watching me. I looked up and straight into a pair of blood red eyes set in a pale face that sparkled like diamonds in the few rays of sunlight that hit off of it. As it came near me I dropped my backpack and a surge of rage slammed into me and I exploded literally.
When I came around again I had ripped the thing into pieces but somehow I knew that wasn't enough, and even as I thought I saw the hand start to twitch. "The heck?!" I started to freak out when I heard something coming through the woods straight towards me and it sounded like there were more behind it. I didn't know what to do if I ran the thing could kill whoever or whatever it was that was coming but if I stayed they or them could try to kill me. Luckily I was being smiled down upon and it was a family of shape-shifters who explained everything to me. I stayed with them for the next several days learning everything that I needed to know before I had to get back to the hotel in order to become 'Ai'. Not surprisingly the clothes I had barely fit me anymore seeing as how I had grown from my already tall height of 5'10 to what I judged to be 6'5 and in my human form my muscles were more defined and I was running a normal temperature of 108. I was also faster and stronger than normal and I had to be careful when I was getting dressed. Finally I found an outfit that would go with a pair of flats I had found in the closet ( ) I have to say it made me look like a model. After the pictures were taken I let my manager know that I was leaving. I didn't bother going back to the hotel instead I just decided to fly home. The Hawaiian shape-shifters had been nice but they didn't like the thought of an 'unstable' wolf on their turf so after telling me everything they could they urged me to leave so I knew they wouldn't miss me.
I took a taxi home since I was in a dress and I could smell vampires the closer the taxi got to Charlie's house. When I got out I could smell a fresh scent however this vampire smelled different from the other one this one smelt like pine and burnt sugar, still a disturbing scent but not as bad as the other one. I could smell it inside the house and the closer I got to Bella's room the more intense the smell got. I gave a quick and soft knock on Bella's door before I opened her door her window was opened and I knew she was awake and I could tell from the smell the vampire had just left. "I'm guessing that was the Cullen boy you were interested in." I said to Bella as I walked over and shut and locked her window glaring at the golden eyed vampire I saw peering at me from the woods. Bella didn't say anything and I rolled my eyes, "Bella I know your awake and I know that guy is a bloodsucker." I stated, daring her to deny that fact. She jolted up in bed like she had been poked with a branding iron, "W…?!" Bella started to exclaim. I slapped my hand over her mouth, and put a finder over my own mouth shushing her as I listened to see if Charlie had woken up. Thankfully he hadn't so I relaxed my grip on her mouth and dropped my finger away from my own lips. "Are you trying to wake Charlie up?!" I hissed at Bella as I flipped on her bedside lamp. "Are you wearing a dress?" Bella asked in surprise. I laughed quietly, "Only you Bella." I said shaking my head. "What?" Bella asked in confusion, "I catch your bloodsucker boyfriend red-handed in your bedroom without Charlie's knowledge, I've no doubt, and instead of asking me how I know what he is you ask me about my clothes." I said chuckling again.
That night Bella told me everything about the whole Cullen family and how they were vegetarians and they had 'gifts'. I listened and in the end I wasn't happy with my little sister dating a corpse but if that made her happiest that as long as he didn't hurt her we were okay. "I want to meet the whole Cullen family, make sure you tell Edward if he's not still out there in the forest listen to us." I told Bella before getting up and going to my room which was the attic that had been converted into a beautiful room with its own bathroom. The next day I had cleaned up the house and had bought groceries and was thinking about what to make for supper when Bella came flying inside the door. "Edward said all of the Cullen's are interested to meet you. Can you be ready in thirty minutes?" Bella said as she dropped her school backpack onto the couch and ran upstairs to get a quick shower and change. "Sure." I muttered my answer since Bella was already up the stairs. I called Charlie and told him that Bella and I wouldn't be home to late but that I would make maple sausage, chocolate-chip muffins, scrambled eggs and cheesy potatoes and leave them on a plate for him in the fridge. Then while Bella was getting a shower I made the food and just barely held myself back from devouring it all as soon as it was done. I made a small plate for Bella and stuck that in the fridge as well before devouring everything that was left over and putting the pans in the sink leaving the ones that were still too hot on top of the stove.
Finally Bella was down and after she pulled on her shoes I grabbed my motorcycle keys and we were off. She gave me the directions and within twenty minutes we were pulling up outside of the Cullen's house. All of my senses were tingling and I was surprised to find out that all vampires did not smell the same. They all had the same burnt sugar smell but they all had another scent as well. I shut off my bike and stuffed the keys into my backpack which I then slung over my shoulder. "Are you ready? You'll be nice right?" Bella said as we walked up the front steps. I grinned, "I will try to behave myself." I said. Bella huffed, "That doesn't reassure me at all!" I laughed at that and the front door opened. I could tell from his scent that this was the one my sister was dating. "Hello Edward." I said with an easy nod in his direction. He relaxed slightly and was at Bella's side in a second, the door opened wider behind him and several other golden eyed vampires filled it. The eldest male stepped forward and offered his hand, "Hello I'm Carlise." He said. I shook his hand, "Hello, I'm Bella's older sister Enyo you can call me E if you wish Bella does all the time." I replied. The oldest female stepped forward next and pulled me into a quick hug, " Hello Enyo, I'm Esme." "I'm Emmet and this is my mate Rosalie." The biggest vampire said reaching out for a hug, I quickly ducked under his arms, "I don't hug strange guys." I stated coldly before smiling so he knew I was joking around with him. "Hello I'm Jasper." The last male vampire said softly as he stepped forward, I shook his hand. "Are you trying to mess with my emotions?" I asked feeling something trying to tug at my emotions. Jasper's eyes widened and the rest of the family went silent. "I was trying to see why I didn't feel your emotions. My apologies if I upset you in anyway ma'am." Jasper said, I could hear his southern accent become more pronounced. I smiled and waved away his worry, "No big deal." I said then the last female vampire stepped forward but kept several feet of distance between us. "I'm Alice. Why can't I see you?" She said. "Are your eyes closed?" I questioned unable to hold back the sarcasm that coated that statement. "E!" Bella muttered and I rolled my eyes, "I don't know maybe the same reason that Edward can't read my mind and Jasper can't control my emotions?" I said to Alice who I mentally dubbed 'Tinkerbell'.
I stayed for the next three hours at the Cullen's house learning more about them however I didn't tell them about me. I just didn't feel like I could trust them with that secret and I knew Bella would want to tell her boyfriend so I didn't tell her either. All the sudden my cell-phone rang and I twitched at the ring-tone. It only rang twice before the caller hung up but I got the message. "Isabella I have to go. I'll call Charlie and let him know can you have someone drive you home?" I asked Bella as I stood up from the couch I had been sitting on while playing Speed Racer with Emmet. "I'll take her home." Edward said. I nodded as I grabbed my backpack and pulled out my keys. "Enyo what's going on?" Bella asked worried. I looked at her, "I've been re-activated." I said Bella's eyes widened, "But you said…" I didn't let Bella finish. "Yes but I don't make the rules and they can break them anytime they want. I love you little sis. Take care of Charlie and yourself." I said before kissing Bella on her forehead and walking out the Cullen's front door and down their steps. "Oh hey Edward." I said turning around and coming back up the steps. "Yes?" Edward said appearing in the doorway beside a worried and sad Bella. "Listen Sparkles, you hurt my sister and I will find creative ways to torture you for the rest of your eternal life." I snarled at Edward, making acid drip from every word. The whole Cullen family which had gathered around their front door flinched backwards at my tone. "I won't hurt her." Edward said. I raised an eyebrow at him but didn't say anything else to him instead I turned towards my sister. "You be careful and be yourself. Call me anytime." I said hugging Bella before I walked down the Cullen's front steps and straddled my motorcycle bringing it roaring to life.
