I don't remember much about my human life but that's because there wasn't much to remember. I was born in Dublin Ireland, and was an orphan. I was chosen to go to America. California to be more specific when I was 17. For a exchange student program. I never intended to go back to that orphanage. I also never got noticed for anything. Which is why being chosen for this amazing opportunity was truly startling.
My name is Alana O'Farrell. My first name means attractive, fair, or peaceful. With what I have become I'm not too sure that that is how anyone can describe me. On with my story.
On my way to the dorm I was staying at when I went to California the sun was shining on my shoulder length auburn hair, and my 5'2 97lb frame was bouncing gleefully down the street. Little did I know that that was the last time I was ever going to be able to go out into the sunshine freely. Without worrying if anyone was around.
I was walking down the road and I felt a clod breeze and it made my whole spine tingle. It was very odd because it was a warm 75 degrees. I got up to my dorm which resided right next to the school.
As I went into my room I didn't notice anything different. Until the door slammed closed behind me. I gasped and whipped around. Without saying a word the monster did tortured me. Apparently he was just some guy that decided that he wanted to hurt me. What he didn't know that that's what caused his death.
He basically beat me unconscious and almost did worse things when a bronze haired god, and a blonde goddess saved me. I came to know them as Edward and Rosalie. Apparently the same thing happened to her, and as soon as Edward heard what he was thinking, Rosalie demanded to save me. It didn't take much to convince him because that's what almost happened to his wife, Bella.
All I remember is a snarling, then a ripping, then burning. Every time I screamed I saw them wince. That's only when I could see. It seemed like forever, until the burning stopped. I thought that they had mistakenly saved me and was burning my body, but surely I would be dead by now. Right?
When I finally woke up I was in a different room. But I could see everything! The dust, and the rainbows being thrown by the light. I thought I could hear everything too. It felt like I could hear the things going on down stairs. When I looked about me I saw 4 worried faces instantly relax.
One belonged to a small pixie girl named Alice. Also that she was married to Jasper. Her face was beautiful in everyway. Sharp cheek bones, full but thin lips, big golden eyes. Golden? She stood about 5 ft tall, and probably only weighed 80 lbs. Her face was sweet, but there was an underlying fierceness somewhere there.
I looked to my right and there was a very statuesque blond man. He was Carlisle. His face was unlike anything I've ever seen. Not in any male models. The models I've seen would die for this face. He looked as if he was so caring that he would do anything. That's what I learned was his greatest feature.
Then I looked strait forward there were two beautiful women. One had dark mahogany hair that extended past her shoulders. I found that her name was Bella and that she was married to Edward with a half-vampire half-human child, names Renesmee.
The other looked very motherly. I've never seen such love. She even looked lovingly at me whom I'm guessing that she doesn't even know yet. I found that she was married to Carlisle.
I was startled that not too much time had passed while I was searching these faces. I sat up and the movement startled me. I was just thinking about sitting up and then I was … well… sitting up.
"Hello" I heard Carlisle's voice.
"Hello?" I was really confused.
"Let me explain. You have been turned into something that I regret but does not have to be bad" He looked very apologetic. What was that burning in my throat?
Then I heard I think Alice whisper "She's so beautiful! Oh were going to have so much fun!" What was she talking about?
"What have I been turned into?" I asked cautiously.
"Well, a vampire. That burn in your throat means that you're thirsty for blood" He looked down then back up at me. "Were all vampires in this house. With the exception of Renesmee and sometime the werewolves.
Whoa. This cant be happening. Its so…Fantastic. I'm finally different. I wont be over looked. "Okay. How does the burning in my throat stop?"
"Well, we hunt animals. Where as many of our kind hunt…humans. But we don't. You have the choice."
"I don't want to hunt humans. My throat really hurts!" The burning was becoming more and more prominent.
"Okay" I heard Alice's high-pitched but sing-songish voice from behind me. "Jasper" She spoke. Within seconds a tall dirty blonde man walked in.
"Hello, Alana" He spoke calmly.
"Hello…Jasper" I instantly read that he could control emotions. How could I know this. I looked over to Alice and I found that she can read minds. I looked to Bella and she was blocking me. How do I know this?!
"She's reading us Alice said to Jasper. He nodded.
Alice danced over to me and grabbed my hand. "Lets go hunting!" then she pulled me to the window. I was not scared when she jumped out. I wasn't even scared when I jumped out. It was exhilarating. She started off in front of us and stopped.
"Wait here!" she demanded.
"Ugh she's going to go get a mirror. She dressed you. She I guess the fashion-specialist" We both laughed.
Within seconds Alice was dancing out the door with a mirror that looked way too big for her body to handle. She put it down in front of me. I didn't expect what I saw. I saw that everyone had pale skin and Golden eyes, but for some reason I didn't expect myself to look like that.
I was still 5'2 and almost painfully skinny. But I had a grace to me even when I wasn't moving. I was very pale but my eyes were red. I looked very scary. But at the same time very beautiful. Like the model I've always wanted to be. I put my hand up to my face and it was hard like stone. I gasped. I then looked to my hair it was still auburn and collarbone length.
I tried to remember what I looked like as a human. With my ice blue eyes and my pale but always flushed skin. Almost as soon as I thought of my old me, the image in the mirror changed to almost how I used to look.
I heard Alice and Jaspers surprised gasp. Then almost as fast I changed back to how I really look.
