This is a brand new idea that came to me this morning. I hope you all enjoy it.
Chapter 1: September 11th, 2001
Nessie's POV
"Happy Birthday!" everyone screamed as I walked down the stairs. I smiled, for today was my 7th birthday. Today I was a full grown vampire-human hybrid. On this day back in 1994 I was born in Forks, Washington, U.S.A. A lot has changed in the past seven years. The Volturi have finally allowed us to live in peace. At least for now, we knew it wouldn't be long before they came looking for us again to see how I turned out.
"I can't believe that my baby is all grown up" mom said. I'm sure that she would be crying if it were possible.
"I know, how'd you get so old so fast?" dad said, as if he couldn't believe that I was full grown already. Well I am a seven year old in the body of a 17 year old. I can see how my parents would feel that they missed out.
"Well dad, it's thanks to you that I got so old so fast. Vampire genes you know?" I couldn't help but say back to him. He should've known that he set himself up for that remark.
He just rolled his eyes at me as if to say don't be a smartass. He should know that being a smartass is what I do best.
"So Ness, we have a surprise for you" mom said.
I spun around immediately. "Mom!" I shouted. "I thought we agreed no presents!" she should've known better. After all I take after her in the gifts department.
"Yeah, but you'll love this one" she said.
"Okay, well, what is it?" I asked.
"Your father and I have decided to allow Jacob to move here to be closer to you" mom said with a smile on her face.
"Really?!" I shouted. "Yes! Thank you so much this is awesome!" I shouted.
"Just one thing" dad said seriously.
"Yes dad?" I asked.
"If you two are going to be physically intimate, just don't do it under this house. Please promise you'll do it in a hotel" I could tell that was pretty damned hard for my dad to say.
"Okay, dad I promise" I said.
"We just want you to be happy" mom said.
"So when is he arriving?" I asked.
"His plane should be taking off right now. He'll be landing around 3pm, just in time for the party" dad said.
"Party?!"I shouted.
"Nessie, you didn't think that your grandparents, aunts, uncles, and parents wouldn't throw you a party did you? It's your big 7th birthday!"
"Thanks mom and dad, I guess you're right" I said.
I looked at my watch and realized that it was time for me to leave.
"I have to go, but as soon as my shift is over I'll be home to get ready for the party" I said.
They watched as I left. Today was going to be a great day. I was officially seven years old, and I was finally going to see Jacob again. I hadn't seen Jacob much since my family and I moved to New York City back in November of 1999. It was hard to move away from my best friend, my true soul mate. But finally, he was coming.
I took my time as I walked around the city. It was one of my favorite activities to do. I don't know why, but there is just something about this city that I really love.
I nearly had a heart attack when I looked at my watch and saw that it was 8:36am. If I didn't hurry up I was going to be late for work. I had a part time job at a restaurant called Windows on the World which is located on the 107th floor of the North Tower in the World Trade Center. My shift starts at 9am today and if I didn't hurry up I'd be late.
I started to run as fast as I could do so without getting any unwanted attention. Why did I have to walk around the city? Why didn't I just walk straight to work? Why didn't I just take a car? Or the train? I guess I'm just stupid or something.
Finally, several minutes later I was a block away from the tower.
Then I heard a loud noise that made me stop. It sounded like an airplane but why did it sound so close?
I looked up and saw a plane that I knew was flying way to low. Everybody else that was around me stared at the airplane to.
Then seconds later the plane smashed into the building and caused a huge explosion. I stared in shock. I couldn't believed what I had just witnessed. This just couldn't be real. Then I started crying because I knew that I had just witnessed a lot of people's deaths.
After that it was complete chaos. You could hear people running, screaming, and crying.
I didn't know which way to go. I watched as paramedics, fire fighters, and police officers arrived at the scene.
I watched as the horror continued. I watched as another plane struck the south tower.
A little while later I heard someone screaming "Tyler! Tyler!"
I looked and saw that it was a young girl that looked about 11 or 12 years old. She was running straight towards the towers. For some reason I found myself running after her.
I watched in horror as something fell on top of her and knocked her unconscious. I also heard her something snap.
I went and got the little girl. I could tell that she was barely hanging onto life. Her breathing and her heartbeat sounded very shallow. But I couldn't let her die, I just couldn't. She was much to young die. Especially in such a horrific way.
I carried the young girl in my arms and ran away from the scene just as the south tower started to collapse. I ran at my hybrid speed without even caring if someone saw me or not. With everything that was happening I don't think anyone's going to notice my supernatural running speed anyways.
The streets were much to busy and much to crowded. Getting home wasn't going to be easy. I stopped once I was sure that I was far enough from the world trade center. I examined the girl. She was wearing glasses, a uniform, and a backpack. She must've run from a school then. I looked through the girl's backpack to see if she had some identification. One of her binders said "Caroline Hawkins".
I picked up the girl and started making my way back home again. She was barely clinging onto life. Hopefully Carlisle could save her.
It was with great relief that I finally arrived home.
"Oh thank god Nessie!" mom screamed and ran out to squeeze the life out of me.
"Thank god you're safe Nessie! dad screamed before joining mom in on the hug.
"We were so scared that you had been killed" mom said. They both sounded like they were crying.
"Who's this?" they asked when they finally noticed the girl.
"She got hurt. She needs help. Where's Carlisle?" I asked.
"Inside, we were all so scared" mom said.
Once I was in everyone started hugging me. They all sounded so relieved.
Carlisle right away took Caroline upstairs to examine her.
"Oh Ness you have no idea how scared we all were" mom said again.
"Nessie don't ever do this to us again. We nearly defied logic and had heart attacks" dad said. I looked around the room and everyone nodded in agreement.
"and Nessie, Jacob called. He's not going to get here today" Esme said.
"What?! Why not?! Is he okay?!" I was nearly hysterical.
"Relax Nessie he's fine. All of the planes have been grounded. Jacob's flight was diverted to Canada. We don't know when all of the flights will resume but probably not for a while" mom said.
I felt so relieved.
"I'm going to call Jake and let him know you're okay. He was going crazy with worry" mom said.
Just then Carlisle came back with a grave look on his face.
"What's wrong?" I asked. I didn't want that kid to die.
"There is no way that we can save her medically. The only way to save her is to change her" he said.
"So then let's change her" I said.
"Nessie it's not that easy. She's still very young, she might be considered an immortal child" he said.
"She can't die. We have to save her" I said.
"Well she's not a toddler. Maybe we can take a chance if everyone else agrees to it" He said.
Everyone voted yes; even Rosalie. She said that she hated the idea of a child dying and was willing to let her be changed. That shocked me since out of everyone she was the one that hated being a vampire the most.
We followed Carlisle upstairs and watched as he bit the girl. Seconds later she screamed out in pain as the venom began to spread.
