Prologue

Prologue

It had been two weeks since Ed-he left me and it still hurt to even think his name. A few days after he said goodbye, I woke up and it was like I was seeing the world clearly for the first time. Ever since then, I have been seeing things that I have never seen before, like these little tiny people that glow different colors. I've tried talking to a few of the tiny people but it's like they can't hear me.

Flashback

I locked the door as I began to walk towards my truck. I decided to go to the grocery store so that Charlie would see I was making an effort towards getting over him, but I am the only one in the world that knows that I will never be able to get of the love of my life.

As I neared the truck I saw these spots of different colored lights in the side of my vision. I shook my head, maybe I was going crazy. I really thought I went crazy when I heard the little lights singing in a slightly familiar language. "Hello, is anyone there?" I yelled and when no one said anything back I started to walk to the colored lights. As I walked closer to the lights, I saw that they were actually tiny people. I tried to talk to the lights but they kept on singing as if they couldn't hear me.

End Flashback

I walked over to my closet and pulled out the first things I touched, which happened to be an old t-shirt and jeans. Sighing, I grabbed my bag of toiletries and went to the bathroom. Upon entering the bathroom, I gazed at my refection. I was almost as pale as them, with my cheek bones sticking out and dark purple bruises under my lifeless eyes. As I stared at my reflection, I suddenly felt anger towards the Cullens and my eyes flashed purple for a second. "Get a hold of yourself Bella." I said to myself. With that being said, I placed a big FAKE smile on my face a walked down the stairs.

As I walked into the kitchen, Charlie looked up from his newspaper. "Hey Bells". "Good morning Dad", I greet him in the happiest voice I could manage. When I begin to walk towards the sink, I hear a clash and turn to see Charlie starting at me with wide eyes. "Is something wrong?" as I am saying this, I realize that I am not speaking English.

Charlie walks over to me as I began to panic and tries to calm me. "How can he be so calm when I was talking in a language I have never learned or heard before?" I thought to myself. "Bella there is something that I have to tell you" he pauses to take a breath, "you're not human."

I start laughing, for the first time in weeks, because I know that I am human and I am definitely not a vampire.

"Bella, you're a shadow hunter."
