DISCLAIMER: I Don't own TWILIGHT, If I did, I would make a soft-drink out of it, I can see the label now: A bright red piece of plastic encircles a plastic bottle. It reads, TWILIGHT-ISH-NESS! THE BEST SOFT DRINK YOU WILL EVER HAVE!... But sadly no, I no own TWILIGHT…
A/N: I wish I owned TWI-TWI…that is what I have named it in my mind, but it is a great sin to do so, for man must not commit the Transgression of Preference. Man may not be allowed to give other man names that might set them apart from all brother man. But yet I have done so, And feel no guilt, it is within strange ways that evil works… sorry for my rant, we are reading a really good book in English. (Anthem, by AYN RAND…it's about this one guy and his fight to not be a mindless puppet for the world council's beliefs…READ IT!) Anyway, that's one of the pieces in it, When he meets Liberty-5300…BTW, his name is Equality-72521…or something like that...SORRY FOR MY RANT! LET THE CHAPTER…BEGIN!
CHAPTER ONE: APPLES.
A cold pair of arms-marble in essence-snaked around my waist, I smiled.
"Hello." He didn't answer, but that didn't bother me, Edward is a very quiet person. Then stony lips pressed against my neck.
"Have you changed your mind?" I asked, joking. Still no answer.
I swiveled my head around and screamed, starting to struggle. It wasn't Edward holding me, it was Jasper, and I saw the bloodlust in his eyes. I knew what he was about to do…bite me, drink my blood, and kill me. Not the good 'stick around for the rest of eternity' kind of kill me, I mean like, DEAD. I screamed again, loud and clear. Maybe Edward could hear me from where he and his family were hunting. Jasper must have snuck away, finding the hunt as an opportune time to kill me…well, it makes sense. I watched him as he pulled his lips back, exposing his teeth. The door swung open, I heard it. Jasper lowered his head and I turned mine, still struggling against him. Well, more like I was just struggling, his grip was like an iron cage. I turned my head back around.
Then, two things happened almost at once. I felt Jasper's teeth, painfully pierce my skin, and then a force slammed into us, sending me flying backward. I landed with more of a crack than a thud on the hardwood floor, my blood spreading around me, matting my hair, and turning my white tank top a shocking crimson color. I looked over. Edward had pinned Jasper to the floor about two feet away from me. Emmet walked in and his eyes widened at Edward and Jasper's un-playful wrestling. Hate filled his eyes, he didn't even seem to notice my blood pooling in excessive amounts around my body, mainly my neck and head. He darted over and started helping Edward attack Jasper. The blood loss was starting to make me dizzy. I couldn't think straight. But I watched the scene unfold before my eyes.
Esme, Rosalie, Carlisle, and Alice walked in. Rosalie grabbed Emmet, Alice grabbed Jasper, Esme grabbed Edward, and Carlisle ran over to me to check my wounds. It was then that I sank into unconsciousness. When I woke up, there was no pain; I gathered that Carlisle and morphine would be the reason. Everyone except for Jasper was in the room.
"What?" I asked "Happened?" My words were slurred but I guess they understood, because they left the room, and Edward dashed to my side. He was dry sobbing.
"Edward" I smiled
I looked around. I was indeed alive, but hooked to an I.V. on the bed that Edward had bought.
"I'm okay" Then the morphine gave way and the fire hit. I screamed. It was so painful. My mind wasn't working properly. The only coherent thing I remember hearing was an "I love you Bella" from Edward and a cold kiss on the forehead. The morphine kicked back in and darkness took me. When I woke, no pain again. Only Edward was in my room, still dry sobbing, not even seeming to notice my waking. Everything seemed so bright, so loud, and so clear.
'It's my fault! I should have noticed Jasper left, his thoughts. It's all my fault, it's all my fault' I looked at him and realized that I, Bella Swan, was now a vampire.
'My fault.' Edward kept repeating this to himself. I jumped up and hugged him.
"It's not your fault! Don't be worried." I reassured him.
He looked at me like I had six heads, obviously not realizing what I was talking about.
"I heard you, you kept saying that it was all your fault, and it's not." I told him
"Bella, I never said anyth-" he paused and his eyes widened. "OH MY GOD!"
"What?" I asked
'Bella can- she can- minds- read- Bella reads minds!'
"What the crap are you going on about? I can't read min-" I realized that throughout that whole ramble, Edward's lips had never moved and inch.
'Oh god, oh god, oh god, oh god!'
"Edward…" my voice cracked "I thought reading minds was your expertise…"
He just looked at me, just now realizing the obvious. Me being a vampire and me being right here.
"You're awake!" he yelled, latching on to me in a hug that, if I had been human, would have killed me.
"Duh?" I whispered
Well, in my vampire-ness, I should have to start hunting soon. Darn. My eyes MUST be red…like a newborn, that's the color their eyes are. Now I couldn't have my nice, familiar brown eyes. Darn. Edward likes them so much. I sighed
"Bella?" Edward had untangled himself from me and was now staring into my eyes.
"Yes?" I asked, staring back
"Why did your eyes just change from red to brown?" he looked confounded.
I jumped up and dashed to the bathroom. I got there surprisingly fast, but then I remembered, vampire speed…sweet! I looked into the mirror and noticed that my eyes WERE brown. Can I really just change my looks? Just like that? Well, there is only one way to really find out…and that is to experiment.
Let's see. I've always wanted to see what I looked like with blond hair. So let's take a look.
'Blond hair… BLOND HAIR.' I thought
And my hair turned blond. Every strand turned freaking blond. Edward walked in during the process and nearly passed out.
"Yes Edward?" I asked, trying to make it sound like it was no big deal that I could read his mind and change the way I looked. He wasn't fooled. He just grabbed my hand and dragged me down to talk to Carlisle. He wants to play rough? Well, let's play.
I made myself Alice sized, with red hair, freckles, and celery green eyes. With any luck, Carlisle wouldn't recognize me, and think that Edward just dragged some poor little girl off the street.
"Yes Edward?" Carlisle's voice sounded.
Edward dragged me in.
"Look at what Bella can do!" He held me out
"What are you talking about?" I asked, trying to infuse a French accent into my voice, and it worked perfectly, I sounded like I had just been shipped to America from France, on a little boat. Wow I love this power, not only does it change the way I look, it changes my voice! I think I like this even more than mind reading. "My name is Marie! LET ME GO! PLEASE!?" I hoped that sounded like a frightened girl, and I did! Huh, vampirism must come with a perfect gene…lies, looks, and all.
'What in the world! I swear! That boy is getting more and more deranged everyday!' his thoughts sounded clearly in my head.
Finally I couldn't hold on to my tweenish façade. I laughed so hard that I thought TEARS, real tears, would come out of my eyes.
I changed back into Bella form, surprising both Carlisle and sweet little Alice, bounding through the door.
"Wh-where is Marie?" she stuttered
I raised my hand, signaling that it was me (I'm still laughing, mind you), while I changed back into my 'Marie' guise.
"What is going on?" Carlisle asked
"I found my powers," I said, sobering up "mind reading and change of appearance and voice" I counted off on my fingers.
"um" Carlisle was shocked
"I'm hungry" I said, craving an apple. "do you all have fruit?"
They all just looked at me like I had just turned into Aro or something.
"first of all, apples are disgusting" Alice spoke "second of all, you can't have human food."
"But it smells so GOOD!" I said, I could smell a granny-smith apple, and I wanted one.
Without thinking I ran downstairs and stopped right in front of Emmet. I looked between him and the yummy-smelling fruit on the counter.
"You gonna eat that?" I asked, sounding like a fifth grader named Sally, sitting at a table during lunch time, talking to her buddy.
"no" he told me, talking to me like I belonged on a short bus, with the mentally-challenged kids.
MY GOD! Could no one smell that apple? That ripe, juicy, delicious smelling apple?
"Can I have it?" I asked, still sounding like fifth-grade-Sally.
"WHY? I want it! I was doing an experiment!" He exclaimed
"And what would that be?"
"I was gonna turn it into a monkey." He had a sheepish grin on his face.
"Can I have it?" I repeated
He sighed a loud, over dramatic sigh.
"sure." His reply was simple
"Thank you!" I yelled, grabbing it and putting it to my mouth. OH MY GOD! So deliciously yummy! Crunchy, juicy, and 100 granny-smith.
I turned and noticed the entire family (withoutJasper) staring at me with a look mixed between utmost disgust, and, well, more utmost disgust.
"What?" I asked, my mouth full "It tastes good."
A/N: So, I figured that was a pretty good chapter…strange, yet good… I'm not going to hold my chapters hostage, demanding reviews like a wild-banshee-woman…I will simply update when I want to, and hope some reviews come my way…
