So this is my new Twilight story, and I am super excited for it! I know I have a bad habit of not finishing stories, but I feel like this one is different. I will try to post chapters regularly, but it is not a promise yet. Please leave a review, I would really appreciate it (:

Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight, it belongs to Stephanie Myer, I however do own my ocs, and some of the plot


Chapter 1: Changes

I just stared, heartbroken, as they lowered the casket that held my mother into the ground. Her death was still very hard to process. Not many people were here, we had no family, it was just us, and she had very few friends. Slowly everyone started to leave, until only I was left. I stayed for 15 more minutes until I too left. It was a long, and quiet drive home. When I arrived I slowly unlocked the door, and stepped in. It was dark, and uninviting. Like it knew what was wrong, and it too needed to be sad. I turned the light on, and light flooded the room. I took my shoes off, and slowly walked upstairs. I went straight to my bedroom, and turned the light on. It looked exactly the same, as if I never left. I didn't bother to change my clothes, I was just too tired, so I laid down in my bed, and went right to sleep, tomorrow would be a long day.

I woke up to my cell phone going off. I sleepily pressed the answer button.

"Hey Avalon, how are you feeling today? I am so sorry I couldn't make it in time for yesterday."

"Hey Camryn, It's alright I understand, I'm okay I guess.

"I'm glad you're okay, I know how hard it is. Look I called to ask if you wanted to come down here and stay for a little while? You know, to just get away from things. It might be good for you, I can help with your ticket too.

"Well, maybe. I have to think about it."

"That's no problem hun."

"I just have to take care of a few things here first, and we'll talk more about it once I'm done."

"Alright, sounds good, I'll let you get off of here, and let you get things taken care of. Bye Ava."

"Okay, bye Cam."

As I got off the phone with Camryn, I decided to get ready for the day. I looked at the clock, it was 10:30. I guess I may have time to get the bigger things done. Like dropping out of college and cleaning out my dorm. As of now I knew I couldn't finish college. Maybe later on, just not now. I sighed, and headed for the shower. Once I got done, I got dressed. I put on black leggings, a black crop top, and black work boots, with a black and white plaid jacket tied around my waist. I didn't worry much about my hair and make up as I just grabbed my bag, and left.

Cleaning out my dorm took longer than I thought. Once done I decided to stop to get lunch. I had a quick lunch at Taco Bell, and then went back home, to start going through some of my mom things, and to clean everything. I started in the attic, it really needed cleaned.

About two hours into cleaning the attic I found an old worn out box under a desk. Curious, I opened it to find a bunch of really old pictures and newspaper articles. I looked through the pictures first. My guess was that they were family pictures. I found a few of my grandmother when she was younger, and some with my grandmother and another older girl. I believed this to be my great aunt Alice, the one who went mad, and was put into an asylum. The thing was, she didn't look to be mad, she looked perfectly normal. I looked through all of the pictures, and each one containing Alice, got more and more worrisome. She went from looking happy, to looking completely distraught, and scared. I didn't understand it. I put the pictures back, and picked up the articles. They were all about Alice. They pretty much all said the same thing "Local girl emitted into Asylum, father fears his life" Apparently my grandma's dad believed Alice wanted to kill him. I just didn't believe it though. I didn't know Alice, but there was just something that didn't seem right aobut the whole thing, like it wasn't the truth, and there was more to it. I read the last article. "Local witch emitted into Asylum" Witch? They believed she was a witch? I shook my head. Poor Alice, how scared and alone she must have felt. My grandma used to talk about her before she died, but she never mentioned that people thought she was a witch. I guess Alice had died an unknown death while at the Asylum, not much was explained about her death, just that it was a terrible accident. I didn't believe that either. I remember crying for Alice when grandma told me. How unfair I thought it was. I sighed, and closed the box. I put in on the desk this time, and finnished cleaning. It was around 7 pm when I finally finished, and I was starving, so I decided to order a pizza. Once the pizza was here I slowly ate and thought about Camryn's offer to stay with her for a bit, in Forks Washington. I had the money to do it, since my mom had some money before she died, and that and everything else, including the house and her car went to me, so it isn't like I couldn't afford it. My mother had about 80 grand saved up. My mom. I started to get teary eyed just thinking about her. How unfair life was to take her life away so suddenly. I shook my head, trying to clear the thoughts away. I grabbed my phone and dialed Camryn's number.

"Hey Ava."

"Hey Cam, I called to talk about your offer. I would love to come and visit you in Forks, though I can pay for everything, no problem, since you will be letting me stay with you."

"Yay! I am so glad you decided to come! When do you think you'll leave?"

"Does the day after tomorrow sound alright?"

"Of course!"

"Awesome. Well I am going to go ahead and go to bed, and tomorrow I will get my ticket and let you know when my flight will land."

"Alrighty doll, I shall see you soon, goodnight."

"Goodnight"

I got off the phone with Cam, and cleaned the mess from the pizza. I really hoped Forks would do me some good. I changed into some night clothes, and went to bed, thinking of Forks.
