I just lay there for three whole days. Not moving, not seeing and not speaking. I was all alone on the cold, hard, uncomfortable forest floor, in excruciating pain. I was in too much pain to scream, though I did at first. I had yelled out numerous times for someone to kill me. But of course, no one came.
I somehow grew accustomed to the burning feeling crippling my body. It drowned out all of my energy from me so I just lay there like a dead person. In many ways, I now was.
Finally the pain ended. I opened my eyes, everything felt and looked clearer then I remembered, crystal clear. I stood up swiftly and easily which surprised me, but then I remembered, that I was a vampire, everything about us was perfect.
I could smell a very distant sweet smell, headed north east; the scent was that of a vampire. I could also smell a stronger scent of wet dog headed in the same direction. I wrinkled my nose in disgust. I tried to ignore the disgusting dog stench, I smelt my own scent, it was a lovely Freesia sort of smell, but a little bit sweeter. I laughed a quiet musical laugh and like the sound of it.
I suddenly became aware of a burning sensation in my throat. I realized with chagrin that I was thirsty. I didn't want to become like Laurent, Victoria or James. I wanted to be like the Cullen's and be a 'Vegetarian Vampire' Speaking of Laurent; I wondered what happened to him. I realized the scent that was headed north east must have been Laurent's. Curious, I followed it, deep into the forest.
I ran for a very long time, at my top vampire speed. I loved the feel of the wind in my hair. It was like magic, if I was still a human I would have to walk slowly and I would probably trip. Remembering human life, which was dim and hard to remember, especially the parts where he was not in it was hard. I was so overwhelmed that I was a vampire and I could run as fast as him. I was still refusing to think his name. It would bring back too many memories and an unwanted pain. I'm forbidden to remember, but terrified to forget. How is that fair. All those promises he made, he could never keep them. My dead heart still ached for him, wanted nothing more than to be cradling me in his arms, but that would never happen again, he doesn't love me anymore, he even told me that, to my face.
Still thirsty, I delve deeper into the forest, catching the scent of a nearby herd of elk. I grabbed the nearest one, and sank my teeth into it; I sucked the life out of it greedily. After pulling through at least 4, I caught the scent of a more appealing mountain lion, I caught a glimpse of it, fighting off a grizzly bear, and they were His and Emmett's favorites. Too many memories to go back to, I didn't want to go there, I just dove for another elk.
After hunting, I realized I was going to need clothes, since mine were now, torn and stained with blood. It was the early hours of the morning, Charlie would either be asleep, or already left for work.
I ran towards my once, house. The house where after this, I could never come back to, in fear of harming Charlie. I noticed that Charlie's police cruiser was gone, so he must have been at work already. I climbed through my window with ease, I scattered through my wardrobe, until I found something decent. I pulled on a pair of tights, a hot pink over flowing top, and pink flip flops.
I brushed through my hair, so it wasn't the tangles jungle it was before, and jumped out the window, I ran towards Charlie's work. I saw him from outside a window, sitting at his desk, talking to one of his peers, with a hot steaming coffee in his hands, he had worry and sad plastered all over his wrinkled face. I whispered a goodbye to Charlie, and ran, I don't know where too, but I just ran.
I really wanted to do this story line, it's been done heaps, but I liked the idea so much, I couldn't help it =) Please review, I'll update sooner, I promise.
