"For the 20th time, Maggie, I don't want to play!" I said, irritated.

"Come on, Chloe! It's fun!" Maggie insisted.

Maggie was trying to convince me to play chess with her. I didn't want to play for two reasons: first, Maggie cheated a lot, and second, I really sucked at it.

"No!" I said. She was so persistent all the time, it really got on my nerves.

"Fine." Maggie said. She did that thing where she would look all sad and make me feel bad. But it didn't work this time. I got up off the couch and went outside to clear my head.

My sister, Rosalie Cullen, was in serious danger. I could sense it. Like Maggie, I had a gift. I could tell when people were in danger or not before they were. Sort of like Alice Cullen, who could see the future. Unlike Rosalie, Alice wasn't my sister. I wasn't related to the Cullens, just Rosalie.

When we were human back in 1933, she was 18 and I was 17. We got changed around the same time, but instead of being changed to live, I was changed for some guy who thought I was pretty which wasn't exactly a lie. I looked a lot like Rosalie, tall, thin, with long blonde hair. The guy was a vampire, so he was obviously gorgeous, and of course I followed him into a part of the forest. He bit me and left me for, what I thought then, dead.

He never came back for me. So for three days I suffered. Thankfully, before those three days, Rosalie was hunting in the part of the woods where I was. She stayed with me for those 3 days and then she took me to some of Carlisle's friends in Ireland. They taught me and I never lost touch with Rosalie, but I also wasn't allowed to visit anymore. Why? Because her hot brother, Edward, fell in love with a human and married her. He was stupid.

I decided to go hunting, maybe that would take my mind off things.

. . . .

Turns out it didn't. The guy I hunted didn't exactly need to be persuaded much, so I didn't have to think about what I was doing. Ugh! What a time waster! Maybe I'll just go back and play with Maggie after all. I ran back to the house, only to find my family there, sitting still like they heard something. I listened too and immediately heard. I heard someone running-no not someone, a vampire running to our house. In about 4 seconds someone knocked on the door. We all breathed a sigh of relief when we smelled Carlisle's scent. Siobhan got up and opened the door. "Carlisle," she said, "What can I do for you?"

"We need your help, Siobhan," Carlisle said. I was shocked at his grave tone. "My family is in grave danger."

"In danger of what?" Siobhan asked.

"If you would just come back to America, my son, Edward, will explain everything."

"Of course, Carlisle." Siobhan said. She was confused.
