The characters and everything belong to Stephenie Meyer. I own nothing! This is her brilliant work and I merely created this story for fun. Thanks.

Chapter one: Tug at a lost memory

The wind swept across my face, feeling like a lovers hand caressing my face. I looked around the a banded ally straining my eyes to see more in the darkness, and my ears to hear more. I was a lion stalking my lamb. I could hear the water slowly dropping from the pipe of the building next to me and the sound of a cat in the trash bin trying to find its next meal. Oh cat, how much we have in common. I stalked around the alley corner into the sidewalk of the street. Looking around I saw a couple of girls standing by the entrance of a club called The Night Bite. I chuckled to myself. I watched as one of the girls waved to the others and started walking my way. I slowly walked back and into the ally that I just came out of. I took in a deep breath and the sent that I got made my head jerk back. Oh that sent is the best I have ever encountered. This will be sweet. I listened and tried to figure out where she was going and if anyone was expecting her somewhere, because my family does not need those complications since we just got here. I came up empty. Nothing. I knew she was coming this way. I could still smell her and hear her steady heart beat against my ear drum but I couldn't HEAR anything. No thoughts from her where trying to enter my mind. It was just a dead line. I tried to listen harder, so hard in fact that if I was still human I would of pop multiple veins by now. She was only a couple steps from me now, so I came out of my concentration and braced for my attack. I will ask Victoria about it later, I thought to myself. She was just inches from me. I reached my hand out and violently grabbed her and pined her back to my chest. With my other hand I grabbed her head and craned it to the side. I leaned in for the strike just like a snake, when I felt something sharp go into my side right below the rib cage. I let her go and reached for the wooden stake that was sticking out of my side.

"You chose the wrong girl for dinner buddy." the girl sneered.

I weakly looked up from my wound into the eyes of the girl that was mute to me. It was like something clicked in my mind. It was a shift of gravity or whatever those romantics say. Her deep chocolate eyes and her wavy brown hair tugged at some memory in my mind that was just out of reach for me to grab on to. It was like a string pulling, willing, some distant memory to come to the front of my mind but would not budge. She stood in horror. Her eyes wide and her mouth open. Her breaths became labored and I thought for a moment that she would faint. She started to walk backwards and in the process she dropped the stake that she was about to, no doubt, plunge into my heart. She looked ready to scream but she didn't have enough air to do so. Then she ran, just like the hounds of hell was nipping at her feet. She ran and didn't look back. I stood there stunted, and slowly started to pull the stake from my side. Getting the stake out was the easy part, the healing not so much. The hole slowly started to close but I needed more blood if I wanted it to heal all the way. But that was the last of what I was worried about. That girl was all I could think of.

Edward! Get home now! Victoria's voice screamed in my head.

No doubt that Alice saw what just happened and told Victoria. Yep, if I was not already dead, then I would of been when I got back to the institute. As I started to walk back to my home I couldn't help wondering, who was she?
