Hi guys, turns out Dr Martinez (and others, wince) were traitors and now she, the flock, the school and Itex are gone. But I'm not thinking about that right now. I've had two years of mourning and now I've decided to get a life. 'Cause that's what the flock would want me to do. Right? So here I am on my way to the small town of Forks, Washington, were I'm going to meet my dad for the first time. That's right, my dad, turns out Jeb was just a lying jerk.

I glance down to see a big secluded house in the forest it probably belonged to some rich retired couple who don't want to be bothered. Oh well.

I stand outside my father's house staring at the door. I'm trying to decide whether I should knock or not.

What's the worst that could happen?

Hello voice glad you decided to join me.

Knock he's not going to shoot you.

He could.

Max, knock.

I stood there for another couple of minutes gathering my courage I could hear the TV blaring inside it sounded like some sort of sporting game.

Wonder whose winning.

Max, you're stalling

"Am not," I said a little bit too loud. I heard Charlie turn off the TV and come towards the door.

"Crap," I muttered just before the door opened.

The man standing in front of me had a medium build, short curly brown hair with eyes that matched in colour.

"Hello" he rumbled.

I'm usually the one for words but my mind was blank. "Hello voice? Good time to step in now." I thought. But of course it didn't answer.

"Um hi," I mumbled.

"Do your parents know your out at nine o'clock knocking on strangers doors?" he semi-yelled at me.

"Well you see… that's sort of why I'm here," I said then looked up. "I think I might be your daughter. I said a bit louder. "What?" Charlie asked his eyes going wide.

I said. "I'm you're daughter!" I almost screeched. "OOPS!" I whispered. "Come on get inside," said Charlie when the house lights in the street started to flicker, "so…" said Charlie "So indeed." I said hoarsely. "Max you're stalling again." Said the voice "Am not," I mumbled under my breath. "What was that?!" Charlie almost yelled. "Um…" "Thinking out loud" said the voice. "I was thinking out loud (I think)." I spoke in a calm voice. "Oh okay then." mumbled Charlie.

"Well you can stay in my guest room tonight.
