SPOV

The sun began to set over the horizon of Lake Superior. It was nineteen- twenty and I watch as my mother prepares to end her life. She takes a few steps forward and I can see her face. She looked different then. Her skin had more color, her eyes were brown, and her cheeks were tear-stained. She was human.

I had seen it happen before. I wanted to stop her, and I had tried in the past, but there is nothing I can do. This is how it has to happen. This is how it happened.

She takes one last step toward the edge. She takes one final breath, and lets herself fall over the edge to her death.

~oOo~

I awake with a gasp as the plane touches down. We finally made it to Denali. I stand up and grab my bag from overhead and follow the rest of my family off of the plane.

We are met by the three Denali sisters: Carmen, Tanya, and Kate. Each of them greets me with a hug.

"Sydney, it is so nice to finally meet you!" Carmen says in her Spanish accent.

" It is, you would have thought that after fifteen years we would have met by now." Tanya says as she puts my bag in the car.

"It's nice to meet you guys too." I say shyly. I'm not sure why I was so nervous. They were practically family after all. It wasn't even the fact that they were vampires; I've lived with a house full of them my entire life.

We all fit easily into two cars since we were down three people. Bella, Edward, and Renesmee got off in Washington to visit with some of Bella's human family. They'd be meeting up with us at our new home in Kodiak.

The ride to the house was long and uneventful besides the fact that Tanya and Kate were practically interviewing me about my life. I was very happy when we finally pulled into the garage.

"Eleazar and Garrett went hunting, they should be back in a little while." Kate explains. Tanya shows me to the room I'd be sleeping in.

" Do you need any blankets or anything? Some pillows?" She inquires as I sit on the bed taking off my shoes.

"No, I don't think so. But, thank you." I say. It's nearly midnight and even though I'm not tired, I fake a yawn.

" Well, I'll leave you to go to sleep then. Goodnight."

"Goodnight." I put on a baggy black sweatshirt and matching knee- length sweatpants. A few minutes later, my parents come in to tell me goodnight. After they leave, I wait a little while to make sure no one else is coming.

When I know it's safe, I open up the window. I see that the roof is close to the top of the window, so I turn myself around and hoist myself up onto the roof. It's flat so it's easy to get on and sit.

I stare up at the night sky and breathe in the cool, Alaskan air. It smells like pine and smoke. My parents would probably kill me if they knew I did this. Especially if they knew I did this on a regular basis. No matter what house we were in, I found a way to get on the roof from the room I was in.

I see the trees rustle and guess that that's where Garrett and Eleazar are; they weren't to far from the house.

Even though I wasn't a full vampire( I'm not even half vampire, I'm one-fourth so I'm practically human), I had always loved thinking about what it would be like if the vampire part of me took over more.

About a year ago, I got curious about what blood tasted like. I had a faint idea. I had tasted my own blood before from biting my cheek of getting a bloody nose, but I wanted to know what it was like to purposefully drink blood. So when everyone was gone late at night hunting, I went down to the garage and found the stock of blood my dad keeps. I took a small bag up to the kitchen and put it into a cup. It didn't have much of a smell, so I decided to drink it. Of course, my mother walked in as I was taking my first big gulp. I was frozen mid-swallow.

Her face was a mixture of horror and surprise. Before she could say anything, I ran up to my room, too embarrassed to face anyone. I heard the rest of my family come in a few minutes later. I listened through the vents to hear what she was telling them.

" I heard something in the kitchen and smelled the blood, I thought maybe she cut herself. As I walked in, I saw her there, frozen in shock. She had the clear cup up at her mouth. Then she just ran up to her room. I wasn't sure what to do." My mother told my father. I knew that the others could hear them. I reluctantly came down from my room the next afternoon. To my relief, no one mentioned the incident. What I never told anyone was that I kind of liked the way the blood tasted.

~oOo~

I'm taken out of my memories when I see two men come out of the tree line towards the house. One was lanky, with olive skin and dark hair. That must be Eleazar, I think. That leave the one with the ponytail to be Garrett. I wanted to wave to them, but then I remember that they would probably end up telling the rest of the family that they saw me on the roof, which would have me grounded for about the rest of my life.

I climb back into the window and crawl into the quilt covered bed. I lose myself in another dream.

~oOo~

I'm in an unfamiliar place. A clearing in the woods. I see my family, the Denali clan, and some other covens. The Volturi come in from the tree line. There are more people with them than in the other dreams I've had of them. The entire guard is there, from what it looks like. Though, one woman stands out from the rest of them. She doesn't have a black cloak like the rest.
I've never seen her before, but I have some instinct I guess, that her name is Irina. She was a member of the Denali coven.

I watch as my family and the Volturi have a silent conversation, like watching a movie with the sound muted. After some conversing, and Aro talking with a younger version of Renesmee, Aro looks at Irina. Suddenly, Felix is behind her, his hands on the top and bottom of her head. Tanya, Kate, Carmen and Eleazar look horrified and scared, but they don't question the Volturi. I watch as Felix decapitates Irina.

Suddenly, the scene shifts. Tanya, Kate, and Irina are standing in front of the Volturi again, only this time, Carmen and Eleazar aren't there. There is another woman. She looks similar to the other girls of the coven. She's holding a small child. His eyes were red. This time, there is no back and forth, no negotiation. I had never met these two before, but something in my mind told me their names. Sasha and Vasilli. They were torn limb from limb and thrown into the fire.

~oOo~

I wake up screaming, in a cold sweat. Everyone is crowded around me. My parents are trying to shake me awake. I take several deep breaths.

"Sydney, it's okay. It was just a dream. It wasn't real." My mother soothes.

"Yes, it was, it happened. I saw it. You saw it. It was real!" I argue. I wasn't sure why this was happening, why I was seeing these things.

" Sydney, what happened in the dream?" My father says gently.

"The Volturi. And, some other people I don't know. Their names were Irina, Sasha, and Vasilli. The Volturi killed them. And you guys were there too. And Nessie. And Edward and Bella." I explain. I notice that everyone's eyes are wide with shock. "Anyone wanna explain what the heck is going on?"

"How did you know about them?" Tanya asks. She turns to my parents. "Did you tell her about them?"

"No one has mentioned them." My father reassured.

"Who are they?" I ask. I'm ignored again.

"Carlisle, has she not told you?" Eleazar asks my dad.

"Told me what?" He looks at me.

"Told him what?" I look at Eleazar at the same time.

"She's talented. And a quite powerful talent, especially for a hybrid. Didn't you know?"

"I didn't think that was possible." We both said at the same time.

" Yeah, she sees the past. She does pretty much the opposite of Alice."

This can't be happening.
