As we walked to class, I noticed Ice was acting weird. Actually, so was Ember.
()()()()()()()()()
Ember was my best friend since pre-K and was always like a bodyguard. Even though her name wasn't Ember, everybody called her that. Thing was, I don't think that has anything to do with her name. Then again I couldn't be certain. No one knew her real name.
Ember is the evil, mastermind in our group. Her natural blood red hair matches perfectly with her attitude, more so her eyes too. She was orphaned at age six, and lived with me and Ice. Ember was the mature and elder one. She always took chances and never played by the rules, which annoyed Ice to Hades and back. But we love her because she always has our back and cares for us.
Ice is a lot like Ember in many ways. The fact that she always took chances and was orphaned at a young age made them seem like twins. They even look alike…aside from her blue hair and navy eyes. That and Ice would rather annoy you while Ember would beat the crap out of you.
Ice has never had a problem with money. When her parents died, they left her their life savings, which totaled over four billion…or something. Because of her we all live together outside of town in an awesome house.
I was way different than both of them. I'm clumsy, and really had no sense of style. But, then again that changed when I met them. Ice and Ember have changed me a lot. Because of them I became a little less clumsy and whenever I leave the house I leave in fashion…
Yeah, not just of the clothes but also the car they make me drive. A Bugatti. It actually grew on me. I used to hate going fast but now I can't go under ninety without pretty much losing my mind.
Though there is one main thing we all have in common. We are all immortals. Ice is a Fairy, but not the ones in fairy tales. No, she is the leading cause of tsunamis and earthquakes. Ember is a Pixie; the same stuff applies to her. Though she helps in the wildfire department.
I am a Demon Hunter. So pretty much am immortal catcher. They only reason I didn't attack my friends was because when I first met them we were young. Then by the time I got my Hunting skill, we were already the best of friends…scary.

"Ice, what's wrong?" I asked.
"…Nothing, Bella. Just…you may be needed here."
"What do you mean?"
"I'm saying, there are immortals here. Vampires to be exact." She sneered.
I sighed, "Vampires my ass. I would have…Holy fucking shit…You're right…"
"I usually am, never doubt me."
Ember rolled her eyes and we continued walking to homeroom cautiously. Just then I caught a whiff of vampire. I got down in a crouch and prepared to attack.
"Bella!" Ice warned. "Not here! Not now!"
I couldn't help it. Even the tiniest scent of vampire makes me lose control. Ice and Ember grabbed each of my shoulders to try and pull me up. I struggled out of their grip and got ready to dash after the immortals.
"Bella, your eyes. Not normal. Remember? We came to Forks to lead normal lives." Ice soothed.
"Normal? Pretty hard to do when you don't age." Ember muttered.
"Not helping, loser."
Just then I heard them…
"We so have to do that again!"
"Emmett, what are you talking about?"
"…Nothing."
I finally stood up and turned around.
"You're right. Not now. Not here. Not with witnesses." I stated in a strained voice.
"If it's that bad stop breathing." Ember whispered.
"No, no. I can handle it. Let's just get to class."
Ice gave each of us a slip of paper with our classes and teachers.
"How come I have only one class with either of you?" I asked.
They both shrugged.
"Well, I guess I'll see you guys at lunch."
We waved goodbye and headed our own directions. I wanted to get away before the coven of vampires spotted any of us. They may not be able to tell what we are but I didn't want a single one of them to greet us.
Just my luck, not a single one came up to me. All five did! I sighed when a little pixie like fool danced over. Wait, how'd I get pixie? She looks nothing like a pixie. Well, maybe in the fairy tales.
"Hi, I'm Alice Cullen. Are you new?"
I nodded, "Just moved here. My name's Isabella. But call me Bella." Or you can walk away and stop talking to me…Yeah; you should choose that before I kill you.
"It's nice to meet you, Bella. That's Jasper." She pointed to the blond haired guy who looks like he's hurting. Then she pointed to the huge brown haired male. "That's Emmett, my knuckle-head of a brother. Rosalie, Jasper's twin." She directed at the blond female that looked like she cared about nothing other than her looks. Then she pointed to a bronze haired God. Did I just think that?!?! "My older brother, Edward."
In the span of two minutes I learned who was who and that Rose is dating Emmett and Jasper is dating Alice. Stuff I really didn't care about.
Just then the bell rang. Man, that was the first time I was happy I joined school.
"Uh, bye." I muttered.
Before anyone noticed, I was already halfway to class. I was in homeroom and in my seat in record time. Okay, they're vampires. Why did I think Edward looked like a God?! OhmyGod, I'm crushing on a fucking vampire!!!
This can't be good…wait, I thought he was a bronze haired God…Okay, this could just have been an accident… The next time I see them I won't have this urge to kiss him.
I was having an internal battle with myself and I was losing. I need to talk to Ice and Ember, NOW!
I pulled out my phone and texted them; meet me in the restroom. NOW!
I could tell my heart was pounding like a bass by now. After homeroom I snuck out and raced all the way to the restrooms. I noticed Ice and Ember here already.
"What's with the text?" Ice asked.
"I have no clue…but I need your advice. Here me out…" I muttered.

Talking to them was almost as bad as standing in front of the Cullens. They didn't help much. Ice was shocked and Ember broke out laughing. Neither of them gave me good advice. That's the last time I talk to them about anything of importance.
I really wanted him to be in my next class…and I didn't. Is that even possible?
It didn't matter, Edward and Jasper was in my first class. I closed my eyes and prayed, Dear God…KILL ME NOW!!!! I concentrated, thinking on what abilities they have. It seemed that Jasper could manipulate emotions…crap. And Edward can read thoughts…double crap.
"Ms. Swan, you may sit next to Angela."
I flinched knowing bright as day that Edward sat behind me and Jasper sat in front of me…Fuck my life, fuck my life, fuck my life…
On the inside I was crying. I sat down and took out my notes. I tried again, Please God! KILL ME NOW!!!
The whole time Jasper was tense. He kept turning and looking at me. After the sixth time I looked down at my paper and hissed menacingly, "If you do that one more time, I'm gonna rip you to shreds, burn them and say bye bye to your undead life."

When I got to second period, I noticed Alice was in this class. Then during third Emmett, Jasper, and Alice were there. Jasper wouldn't leave me alone…though he never really spoke. When I finally got to lunch I was exhausted.
"The scent of vampire is intoxicating and delectable. It makes me want to fucking…" Ice stopped me.
"Bella! Shut up! Please! You can kill them later. But not during school."
"I don't think she wants to kill the bronze one," Ember muttered. "I do have to admit, he's cute."
A growl built up in the back of my throat. Immediately I smacked myself in the head.
"Is that jealousy I smell?" Ice winked.
I slammed my head on the table; "I'm screwed aren't I?"
They both nodded. I kept slamming my head on the table. After a while Ember grabbed my head.
"Thanks…"
"Eat Bella!" She commanded.
"NO…I have Biology next…then PE." I rolled my eyes as they started laughing.
"Random…" One of them muttered.

When I walked into Mr. Banner's class, I was hit with the immense scent of vampire. Sure enough when I turned around there he was. Tall, dark, and handsome…what the fuck! I have to stop thinking like that…. I really do…
When he sat down next to the only empty spot it seemed God would kill me, just not they way I wanted. I wanted to start banging my head on the table again, but Ice and Ember weren't here.
I sat down next to him and started yelling at myself. You're going to Hell, Isabella! Hell!
During the whole period he kept staring at me. I couldn't understand if in wonder or he found out something. Or he wants to bite me. Could be that…I mean, a Hunter's blood is more tempting to vampires than humans.
About a minute before class let out, he cleared his throat.
"Uh, Bella?"
"Yes…Edward?"
"I have a question…How do you know what we are and how to kill us?"
I bit my lip and begged that the bell would ring soon.
"Um…"
Before I could say anything my phone vibrated.
Tell him nothing… From Ice'Sides, when u finish reading this, the bell's gonna ring.
"Sorry, family emergency, got to go."
I stood up and dashed out as soon as the class was let out. He just stared at me in shock. I hurried all the way to the locker rooms and met up with the two.
"Fucking vampire knows to much." Ember muttered.
"It's not him. If I hadn't have slipped, he wouldn't have thought different from this morning." I whispered.
"You slipped?" Ice asked, totally shocked. "But you're Bella! You don't make slips. What did you do?"
"I sorta threatened the blond guy, Jasper. 'If you do that one more time, I'm gonna rip you to shreds, burn them and say bye bye to your undead life.'"
They both looked bewildered.
"What do you think is gonna happen?" Ice murmured.
"Nothing, except Bella's gonna fall in love with Edward, vise versa, he becomes her mate…"
"Stop right there," I hissed. "There has never been a vampire as a Hunter's mate before. Now come on before we're late."
We changed and waited by the basketball court.
Apparently the whispers started.
"Damn, those chicks are fucking hot."
"I'm gonna ask out Ice."
"Do you think Ember will go to the dance with me?"
"Damn, look at the ass. Isabella is-…
I didn't hear the rest for if I did, he would've died. Ice and Ember pulled me away from the gym. Ember was chuckling as Ice murmured something about him not living to see another day.
I noticed something else in an instant. Alice and Edward had this class PE.
"Can you let me go?" I asked calmly.
"No, we're gonna get you out of here then I'm gonna come back and beat the crap out of that boy." Ember grinned.
Edward looked over at us, which caused Alice to turn too. They both stared with eyes of shock.
"What happened?" Alice whispered to Edward.
"Let me go before I call 'rape'." I smiled.
They released my arms, to which I fell and hit my head on the ground.
"Oh shit, sorry Bells." Ice gasped.
I sighed and stood up before walking away.
"Let's go home…please."
