1492

"Head east!" Christopher Columbus yelled pointing in the east direction. I turned the wheel and the ship tilted side ways.

Right now we were heading to Spain in a small ship called the Nina with triangular sails. The floor creaked under our weight and pieces of wood were chipping off everywhere. But it held 90 people and it was getting us across the ocean so it had to do.

Christopher Columbus wanted to find a new route to the Far East, to India, China, Japan and the Spice Islands. If he could reach these lands, he would be able to bring back rich cargoes of silks and spices. Columbus knew that the world was round and realized that by sailing west, instead of east around the coast of Africa, as other explorers at the time were doing, he would still reach the East and the rich Spice Islands.

I only came along to see if it was true. He was always so adamant about it that you couldn't help but think about it.

" So do you think it is true or do think were just wasting our lives for nothing?" Jack came up to me asking.

" I don't know." I shrugged and I honestly didn't know. I feared if maybe he is right. I left my family and friends all to explore something I had no evidence of.

The waves were crashing around us, making the ship jerk back and forth. I grabbed the edge and held on tightly as every one else. The rain was falling hard, seeping into the wood. I could barely see due to the droplets of rain spraying in my face, falling into my eyes. The storm was getting worse.

" What the hell is going on!" Someone yelled.

All of a sudden I hear a huge splash and I look over. I see a mans arms flailing and splashing everywhere. I pull my shirt over my head and climb up standing on the edge. I look for the man in the dark water but he had disappeared.I squint my eyes and see a movement out farther. He was drifting away. I dived into the water, ignoring the how my body was doused in freezing cold water. I couldn't control my teeth chattering.

I swam in the rough water. Waves crashed into me pushing me back. I pushed my self harder fighting the waves off. I finally got to him and grab his arm, pulling him back to the ship. I work hard to drag us both through the raging waters, spitting water out that keeps making its way into my mouth as I pant. but before we can reach it a giant wave crashes down on us and everything goes black.

I woke up to the sun shining brightly in my face. I felt as if I was moving and I opened my eyes. There was a man, carrying me. I looked at his face. He looked angry. I could see little white pointy things poking out of the side of his mouth and scrunched my eye brows in confusion.

"Hey man...you can let me down. I'm awake." I told him, my voice was raspy. My throat was burning and I cleared it but it just made it worse. " He-!"I started to yell but stopped immediately and went into a coughing fit. " Let me down." I said lowly. He sighed in frustration and drops me roughly on the ground. I felt a sharp prick in the back of my leg.

"Ow! Fuck!" I groaned rolling over and standing up. I tried to dust my pants off but it was no use. They were all wet and covered in dirt and sand. I felt the back of my leg and found what had stabbed me. A shard of glass. I lifted head up and gasped. The mans eyes were a bright red. Either he was wearing contacts or he wasn't human.

The man crouched down as if he was about to pounce and started growling at me. I held my hands up in surrender and his eyes snapped to my hand growling even louder. I glanced up and saw the glass that had stabbed me. Suddenly I was flying through the air. I feel the air whooshing past me at how fast I am flying through the air and I crash into a tree. My back hit the tree so hard, I cried out in pain my hand opening automatically and the glass fell to the ground.

I hear gravel crunching and I peer up to see the man crouch down before me. He reaches out and I immediately try to scramble back but can't because of the tree. I stare at him in fear. He doesn't speak as he grabs my head and smirks before twisting my neck and once again everything goes black.

After that came a great deal of pain. Too much pain to care about anything. My ribs felt like they were being broken in half one by one. My limbs felt like they were being torn off my body and my heart. My heart felt like it was on fire and was being crushed into a million different pieces.

It felt like forever when I finally woke up. I was lying on a bed in a large room. I looked around observing my surroundings and stopped when I saw a man. A different man than I saw the last time I was cautious. He was sitting across from me with his head in his hands.

Once he saw that I was awake he stood up and slowly walked toward me as if I was going to attack him. I coward back wondering what he was going to do to me. Why did he bring me here? Was he going to kill me? All these questions swarmed in my mind. When I came out of my tortures, thoughts, he was there, standing right in front of me but instead of being frightened I my attention turned elsewhere.

My throat was burning and my chest was aching. I squeezed my eyes shut trying to block out the pain constricting in my throat. I suddenly smelt the most disgusting smell in my entire life. My eyes snapped open and I was now looking at a dead animal. Where the fuck did that come from? I shook my head and turned my attention the the blonde man.

"What is happening?" I rasped out. My throat was so dry.

"First of all my name is Carlisle Cullen and you are a vampire Edward" I would have laughed if all the clues weren't there. The man that had broke my neck. The burning and my throat being on fire.

"How?" I asked in bewilderment.

"Well apparently you had died in that storm and Jasper had fed you his blood before killing you and now you are a vampire. I'm so sorry but he just couldn't let you die." He tell me sympathy in his voice but I didn't care about that.

"Why does my throat burn and my heart ache?"

"Your throat burns because you need blood and for you hear well that's a longer story."

"I'm a vampire now so apparently we have forever. So tell me why my fucking heart fells like it is going to jump out of my fucking chest!" I demanded. I was really getting tired of his short answers. It felt like my emotions were all over the place.

"You need to find your mate. Once you find your mate the aching will stop."

"Mate?"

He explained to me how a male vampire must find his mate or their chest will forever fill like it is being crushed and burned and trampled on all at the same time and when you do finally find your mate you can never be separated. The second you set your eyes on her you will feel the need to claim her and make sure all the other male vampires no that she is take. You become possessive and very protective of your mate and will stop at nothing to keep her safe. If another male even looks at her the wrong way you will feel the need to attack or kill him. It's not the same for the female vampire though. They feel no pain and don't even care if they do find a mate but once you are together she also becomes very possessive and protective. I listened intently on what he was telling me fascinated. I wondered when I would find my mate. What is she gonna be like? Is she beautiful? Then something came to me. How long does it take to find her? I mean what if she is in a whole different time period.

"How long does it take to find your mate?"

"Years, decades sometimes even centuries." I gaped at him I couldn't go on like this!"Let's stop talking about mates. You need to feed Edward."Oh. I had forgotten about the burning in my throat. I nodded and stood up. He nudged the dead animal toward me and I looked at him questioningly

"We do not hunt humans Edward. I have discovered long ago that we can survive off of the blood of animals." I laughed out loud at this but stopped when I saw the expression on his face. He was completely serious.

"I'm not hunting animal's Carlisle."

"I will not have a human drinker in my coven Edward. If you want to stay with me, your gonna have to get use to the fact that we are different."

"Who said I wanted to stay with you?" and with that I dashed off disappearing into the forest.

And now here I am 480 years later without a mate sitting on top of a rock looking out into the ocean. I have searched high and low for her. All around the world, not leaving one country, state, city or town unsearched by me. I have changed. I have become more aggressive and controlling. I am the same man I was all those years ago. I have control over my emotions and never get attached to anyone. I have basically shut off my humanity. The only one I will ever feel anything for is my mate when I find her. Sometimes I wonder if I ever will.

Suddenly my cell phone started ringing. I ignored it not feeling like talking to anyone right now. I stopped and not a second later did it start up again. I consider ignoring it again but decide against it knowing whoever it is will just keep calling. Obviously they need to get a hold of me. Looking at the caller i.d. it says Alice and I groan. I really hated her with a passion. She is just so fucking annoying.

I met her in Alaska while searching for my mate. Apparently he was visiting some friends and she tried to help me but every time she brought me back a girl it was never the right one. They were always stuck up arrogant and demanding bitches. I don't know why she would ever think I would go for any one of them and to top all of that of she tried to convert me to animal blood. Which pissed me off because I hated it when people tried to change me. I liked who I was and wasn't willing to change for anyone. I answer the phone reluctantly.

"Hello!" I sigh heavily and I hear her huff. She has always wondered why I don't like her.

"Is that any way to talk to the girl who knows where your mate is?" Her high pitched voice rang through the line.

"Alice for the last time, I do not need your help finding her. I can do it myself."

"But Edward I know for a fact this time that this girl is your mate." She whined

"How?" I ask doubtfully

"We have a new member in our coven and she can read minds and sense mates." That got my attention and listened to what she had to say."Well I had a vision of a girl coming to forks and then of you and her together and she said that you too will have one of the most powerful bonds in the history of vampires."

"What does she look like when is she going to forks?"

"She has beautiful brown hair, piercing blue eyes and the body of a model."

"Wait she is human."

"No, she is a different kind of vampire. She has to be invited inside a house or she can't go inside and there is a bunch of other things but she'll explain them to you."

"How long until she is there?"

"Two weeks and the guys will be all over her."

With that I shut my phone without a goodbye and started running to forks at lightning speed. I was dodging trees, jumping over lakes and running through cars too fast. The humans couldn't see me. I made it to forks in a record time. I made it to the Cullen's house.

Then I remembered. She won't be here for another two weeks. What was I supposed to do until then? The front door opened and out stepped Carlisle but his view was suddenly cut off when a tiny figure blurred out and crashed into him sending them into the ground. I felt small arms around me and immediately shoved them off of me. Satisfied when I heard a loud thump. I stood up and brushed myself off and looked down to see who my attacker was. I wasn't surprised to see Alice on the ground pouting with her arms crossed.

I smirk at her and all of a sudden I am being pushed up against a tree by the same guy that had changed me. He looks like he is in pain. He is holding me by my neck so I put both of my hands on his upper arms and it takes all of my strength to push him off, but I get it done. He stands up and glares at me.

"Don't you ever touch my mate again or I WILL kill you!"he shouts. I'd like to see him try.

"Why don't you tell her to keep her hands to her self and we won't have a problem with that!" I spit out. They're starting to get on my nerves. I've only been here for less than ten minutes and I have already been attacked twice.

"I only wanted to give you a hug Edward." Alice whimpered. We all turn to look at her and she could she looked like she was about to cry. I role my eyes when I see everyone looking at her with concern.

"Well don't! I only came here for my mate and when she gets here we are leaving immediately." I walk passed them and let my self into there home. There are two other vampires sitting on a couch glaring at me. They had obviously heard every thing that happened outside. Shrugging and walking passed them I go upstairs and go to the room and the end of the hall. Deciding that this is where I will sit until my love arrives. Surprisingly they all leave me alone and I am able to sit in piece.

Ok so better...worse? What do you think?
