Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Twilight characters or anything Twilight related.
If you haven't read the first story A New Life, I suggest you read it just so you can catch up.
This sequel takes place one year after A New Life.
I'm not looking for my other half, for I am complete. I'm looking for my other whole.
Preface
They are not gonna get away with this. No way am I gonna let them take away my other half so that I will suffer the way he has after what I did unintentionally. I try fighting them off while protecting her but not even my gift is a match against theirs. With one taking my energy and the other one sending quick jabs of pain after disappearing in a flash, I was at a disadvantage. Just as I was down, she grabbed one of my arms as the guy got behind me and grabbed my head where I can feel myself being drained along with hearing the sound my head cracking where it's about to be separated from my body and my life will soon end, along with hers.
Chapter 1 – Introduction
Have you ever thought that you're living in a world where things don't appear strange, weird or out of the ordinary? Well if you were in my shoes, you thought wrong.
My name is Lucas Kendall Stone, but you might know me as Lucas Cullen. I was born in Forks Washington but I lived in Lacey my whole life. My dad Kendall is chief of police in Lacey and my mom Jessica is a nurse. I have a little sister Lilly who is seven. I was captain of the swim team, ASB President at Timberline High School and a black belt in both taekwondo and aikido. I'm a bit popular among my friends. We always know how to get wild and have fun. Most of the guys I know are immature while the girls I know are, well, do what most girls do, I don't know. I'm the only one of my friends who is the most mature but don't judge me because I'm the guy who's not afraid to take risks.
You can say that my life is perfect… if it wasn't for that night. A month before graduation, there was a fire at my house with my family in it. I didn't know what happened except for that three people came into our house and attacked them. My dad said that they weren't ordinary people but I had no idea what that means then. When we rush my family into the hospital, they were pronounced dead. Ever since then, I felt like I have nothing in my life that's worth living. I thought my life is over, but that was until I met the Cullens.
It all happens when I was walking in woods in Forks when I was trying to find some meaning into my life until I ran into a grizzly bear. It wasn't pretty when I got attacked and it could've been worst if a wolf hasn't saved me. Yes believe it or not, a huge wolf, horse-size to be in fact, came in and distracted the bear away from me. Anyways, a girl named Renesmee, who prefers being called Nessie since it's a mouthful, took me to her house where Carlisle treated me. I'm not kidding you guys he's the best doctor on this planet. His wife Esme is very kind and already thought of me as another one of their kids. Yes, they have kids but they adopted them. There's Emmett, the big intimidating guy with a good sense of humor, Rosalie, the beautiful blonde girl, Alice is the short pixie head who's addicted to shopping, Jasper may be silent when you see him but believe me he's a cool guy, Edward is the handsomest of the guys and is great at the piano like me, Bella is practically my cousin due to our dad's relationship being best friends almost like brothers and then there's Nessie who is actually nine years old in a seventeen year old body and is Edward and Bella's daughter. How is that possible you ask? Well she aged really fast for a half-human half-vampire. Oh yeah did I forget to mention that the Cullens are vampires and guess what, so am I. If you're wondering how that happened, long story short, I almost died and Carlisle bit me to save my life.
Now before you freak out, let me explain to you all that we're not the kind of vampires you hear in stories or myths. We don't burn in the sunlight. Instead, we sparkle. We aren't affected by garlic and we don't get killed by a stake. The only thing that kills us is ripping us apart and fire, so don't even think about playing a joke on me involving fire. Speaking of fire, that night my family died, it was caused by the Volturi; some big coven that makes the laws and all that shit. I hate them because they tried to attack my family but the fire caused them to flee and look at what I went through.
I'm sure you're all asking the most important question; what do we eat? Yes, we survive on blood but not human blood. Well, my family and I don't actually. Instead my family and I feed on animal blood so you would prefer us as vegetarian vampires. Plus our eyes are gold instead of red for those that do drink human blood. We don't age after we've been bitten. Our skin is pale and cold.
Our vampire powers include super senses, super speed, inhuman strength and indestructibility. Some of us have special powers; Edward can read minds, Alice can see the future, Jasper can feel and control emotions, Bella has a mental shield and Nessie can show people her thoughts by touching their faces. Me, I use my aura to protect myself from psychic powers, see other peoples' aura, create aura spheres and identify emotions and detect liars based on their auras.
Moving besides all the crazy things that has happen to me, I am happy with my life living with the Cullens and I couldn't be any happier when… well let me tell you a story.
Don't worry, this is just a brief intro before the story. Please review.
