Dusk

Chapter 1: Changes

BELLA POV
It has been a week since Edward saved me from Tylers van. I still dont know how.
Charlie is'nt home for about a week, its Friday and he just left an hour ago, I got myself dinner and went for a short walkin the forrest. I honestly dont know what posessed me to do it.
next thing i know something came at me with great speed, I really had no option of escape, whatever it was bit me on the wrist.
And then all there was, was pain, a fire coursed through my veins. The pain was so great that I had to scream, but that gave no release to the unimaginable pain, so I gave up screaming.
Who knows how long I was writhering with pain on the forrest floor as the fire raged through my veins, it could have been weeks or months or even years for all I knew.
I was nearly completely consumed in fire, all that was left was my heart, as it reached its final destination I could hear my heart slowing and weakening, was this how I was to die?
I knew it was the end of the pain, there was a tension like the suspence before the climax. When I reached the climax of this fire it seemed to flare, the pain becoming one hundred times worse, it was so over whelming that I let out a scream that would put a banshee to shame.
After the scream, a feeling of finalisation came over me. It was nearly over, I was nearly dead.

I woke and got to my feet, wow that was fast. I looked around and could see clearly for about 200 feet, not only that but I could hear and smell EVERYTHING, odd.
I spotted a small puddle and went to examine my reflection, surely being on fire would skrew up your face.
But when I got to the puddle, preparing for the worst, the only difference was how unusually pale I was, and... HOLY FUCKING SHIT! MY EYES ARE RED!
I ran for it, I dont know why but running felt like the right thing to do.
While I ran I marvelled at the speed and the fact that wasnt falling on my face.
After a minuite I came across three beautiful strangers, all with red eyes,
As I approached them the first male greeted me.
"Hello child, my name is Laurent and this is james-" he gestured to the seond male "and Victoria-" he waved his hand at the last of the treeo, the only female.
"you and we are vampires"
was this man crazy? was he suggesting that we are 'vampires'? This was obsered.
"what?" sarcasm dripped from every letter.
"It may be difficult to take in, but think about it for a minuite" I did as he said and he had a point, something bit me and I felt like I was roasting in hell for god only knows how long, I was now EXTREMELY fast, my -I shuddered at the thought- eyes are red, and there was a forein discomfort in the back of my throut. maby this man, Laurent, was right. He could see that I had decided he was correct.
"You see we are vampires. Now let me explain the perks."
Laurent told me about the speed, the strength, the enhanced sences, living forever, and 'bloodlust'.
"you will need to feed regulary, on blood of course. But we shall wait till sundown to kill any humans."
"What I dont want to kill people!" I was panic striken, was I to live an eternity of killing? Taking innocent lives to fuel my own vile existance?
"AH one of those types are you?"
"what types?"
There are some who live off animal blood, honestly I have always been curious as to how they can deney human blood, but I have a certain respect for their patience and controle."
That could work, I could live with these vampires.
"where do they live?" He thought about this.
"There is a coven in Alaska, The Denali. And one in Washington, I dont know what they call themselves but I can take you to them"
"I think I might go to the coven in Washington" Laurent seemed thankfull that he did not have to take me all the way to Alaska.
"It is decided then, tomorrow evening we shall take you to the Olympic coven, but now you must feed"
With that I went out and found myself a bear. Blood wasnt half bad, I could get used to this. Once I returned I noticed my eyesare now orange-red and not nearly as evil looking.
That night and all the next day, Laurent, Victoria and James taught me the ropes, and we discovered that I have an extra ability, I can manipulate plants (very cool!).
Dusk fell.
"Isabella-" I had insissed that Laurent should call me Bella, but he didnt listen. "we mut leave, come now I shall personally introduce you to your new coven."
We ran through the forrest, all the while thoughts ran amuck throuhg my head-
what if they dont accept me? what if I dont like them? what is my new life going to be like?
Before long we stood before a beautiful victorian house, no, mansion. Laurent knocked softly on the door.
"Hello?" A beautiful young vampire stepped out, she had lovely caramelle hair, a soft lovng face and dark yellow eyes.
"Hello there I am Laurent and I have with me a young vampire I created a few days ago, who wishes to be a part of your particular diet" Her eyes lit up with those last words and a smile spread over her face.
"Well by all means come in, my name is Esme by the way."
"This is Isabella" Laurent introduced me to Esme.
"Hi" I said meekly, Esme reminded me of my mother the way she gave me a warm loving smile.
"Why thankyou Laurent for bringing Isabella to us, it is wonderfull to have a new addition to the family" Laurent noded.
"Farewell to both of you and I hope to see you again in the future" And with that my creator left.
"Well now Isabella, the rest of the family are out hunting, I was just about to join them,would you like to tag along?"
"Sure" now that she mentions it I am a little thirsty"

AN: First chapter what do you think? incase your wondering Bella has never heard of Esme before so she has no idea that Esme is one of the Cullens.

This is officially my longest chapter!!
