CHAPTER ONE

" Be right over Olivia." I hung up the phone. My neighbor Olivia had just called and asked if I wanted to come over and hang out. She lived across the street from me so it took about five minutes to make it to her house.

I tied up my dog so he wouldn't follow me and headed down my road. I was happily skipping because Olivia had a twilight poster she was going to give me. Some may say I am a little obsessed with Twilight. But I say I just like it A LOT.

I didn't even see it coming. I t was like a blurr. I didn't have time to think. I tried to move but was to late. The last thing I heard was a scream that I relized had came out of my mouth. And then the crash as something collided with me and al went black.

_______________________________________________________-

I tried to open my eyes but eventually gave up. I heard something beeping really slow and a smooth voice talking.

" She has broken so many bones and lost a lot of blood. There really is no chance of her living. I am afraid to doom her to this life but I hate to see her die and I have a feeling she might be special. And you need someone, Collin Do you think I should?"

" Yes. I do I have a feeling about her Edward can you read her thoughts?"

`"Yes she is thinking make me one of you I really want it but if we do we have to hurry. Bella's shield is the only thing keeping her alive."

The next thing I knew I felt a sharp pain in my arm then all went blank. I felt suddenly like I had been thrown into a machine slicing at me all over. I could not describe such a pain. It tore through me lke nothing else and I knew I must be dying. Ten all went blank.

I woke up to a room full of beautiful faces. They stared back at me.

" Where am I?" I questioned?

" Hi dear my name is Carlisle I just saved you'r life but unfortunately you are now a vampire." I nodded. I understood. I now knew what the fire feeling in my throat was. I was thirsty. But something was keeping me calm.

" Who are all of you?" I asked

" Hi Maria glad to see you're awake, well I am Carlisle I would be your father figure if you choose to stay with us. This is Esme, my wife. This is my adopted vampire children. Emmet and Rosalie who are married a few timed over might I add," he chuckled then continued, "This is Alice and Jasper that's Edward and Bella. And our newest addition besides you is Collin."

I noticed a boy with very dim red eyes step out from the group. He was beautiful He had straight Blond hair and a gorgeous face. He smiled at me and revealed a wonderful and radiant set of teeth I smiled back and got up off the bed I was laying in.

I gave each of them a hug. And ignored their surprised faces.

"Thank you for saving me I do not regret this life. I'm sure I would be used to it. And of course I will stay with you. I already feel as if your family."

" O that's great maybe you will come shopping with me Bella refuses to let me do anything to her she like jeans and a t-shirt.

And whats so bad about that? I derected my thoughts at Bella knowing she could not hear me.

I'm sure he must feel alone , I thought about Collin.

I am it is a little awkward having this many people in love around me.

" WHOA!" Edward erupted. "Did you to just have a conversation in your thoughts?"

"We did?" I was confused I thought we were talking out load.

"Maria," Edward instructed, " direct a thought towards me and I will reply tell me if you can hear it."

This is weird

I agree.

"I heard it you said I agree. But wait I directed a a thought at Bella and she didn't hear anything." Edward laughed.

"Bella is our little shield I would hate to see how the Volturi are gonna feel once they figure out we can talk in out thoughts withought them hearing."

" I don't think that matters now I am sure Maria is thirsty would you like to come hunting with me Maria ?"Collin asked

" I think you will have to teach me."

" Don't worry it comes easy I learned pretty fast" Bella encouraged me. I noded and headed Collin out the room.

" I am missing a lot"

" Don't worry I will explain after we hunt I will take you to a special place of mine and tell you everything you need to know."

Thanks

No problem

We headed off for my first hunt as a vampire.
