a/n: This is my first fanfiction, so be nice to me. Review if you want. Oh, Alice is not in the first few chapters, but will be in the story. She and Jasper aren't together, but all the other couples are the same. Don't worry though; Alice won't be alone at the end of this. I am not Stephanie Meyer, nor do I claim to be her. Most of the characters are hers, and you should know which ones they are.

Prologue: Introduction

Sitting in a small, secluded area of the crowded high school cafeteria, 5 people were having a hushed conversation, not even bothering to touch their unappetizing food. It would just be thrown away anyways, no sense pulverizing it.

"They're like us, I swear. One of them sits next to me in English and I saw his eyes. Can we at least talk to them?" The big, brawny one asked. He had one arm wrapped around the gorgeous blond girl, who was leaning against his side, and was glancing around the cafeteria.

"Carlisle wanted to talk to them anyway, so I guess it'd be okay. We should invite them to sit with us." The brunette said, intertwining her fingers with the bronze haired boy next to her.

"Great idea, love. Oh, here they come." The bronze haired boy said, looking up towards the cafeteria door. 7 other people walked in, looking slightly awkward. A few of them looked similar, but all (including the 5 at the table) had chalky skin and golden brown or black eyes. They were all also incredibly attractive.

"Well, I guess I'll go get them." The brunette said, then got up and walked gracefully over to the newcomers.

a/n: This whole thing is dedicated to M.M., because she basically forced me to write and finish it.
