I LOVE YOU GUYS so read and review!!


I was standing before Laurent, staring into his bright, crimson eyes, as he slowly sauntered towards me. I knew I couldn't run or scream, I just had to stand there and await my dark fate. Yet, I still tried to escape, slowly creeping backwards, closer into the forest. Falling backwards, I hit my back on a tree, slipping downwards. Suddenly a sharp pain was sent splintering through my arm, I looked up, watching as the vampire become even more ravenous due to the blood slowly trickling down my arm. The need for my blood was obvious in his eyes, and he pounced. A sudden shriek filling the air, and I realized it came from me.

A deep growl echoed through the meadow, matching, then drowning out my scream. Hearing the trees rustle behind me, followed by plenty of twigs snapping, my impossibly loud heart starting beating even harder. Hairy figures started coming through the through the trees, at least I think they did, right now the pain in my arm was the only thing there, pushing me into a hypnotic state. The only thing I was really aware of was that Laurent was no longer there, no one was. I was also well aware of the shooting pain in my arms, slowly the fire spread throughout my body, like I was being burned alive.

It continued like this for 2 and a half days, the fierce, blistering fire was burning me alive, like flameslicking across every part of my body, inside and out. I couldn't believe I was surviving this, I found myself screaming out 'Kill me' even though there was no one to hear my cries. My heart started thumping louder, never ceasing until it was going as fast as a humming bird's wings. I finally managed to open my eyes, and everything was so much clearer, so much that I could see a tiny caterpillar feeding on the highest branch of the tree I was under. I was well aware of what I was now and got up to test my new body. As I did this I was also trying out the word, tasting it on my tongue as it came through my lips.

"Vampire," my voice came out clear as a bell, but also made me more aware of the fire, still burning in my throat.

FLASHBACK

"I don't want to be a monster," Edward said in a low voice.

"But animals aren't enough?"

"I can't be sure of course, but I'd compare it to a human only living on tofu and soy milk; We call ourselves vegetarians, it's our little inside joke. It doesn't completely satiate the hunger-or thirst rather. But it keeps us strong enough to resist, most of the time."

END FLASH BACK

I remembered his words, knowing that I couldn't hurt a human being, no matter the burning in my throat. Also this memory brought the feelings back that I felt for Edward, only much intensified due to my new form, the emotions I never thought would exist outside my regular human self.

I knew I couldn't feed on a human's blood, so I did what was so thought better of me, I lifted my head in the air, searching for the scent of prey. I could smell a strong aroma coming from the east and set off into the forest. It felt amazing running through the dense forest, feeling the trees whip across my body and face, like soft feathers, the rock below my feet, like pillows. But, that wasn't what I wanted now, the comfort, I wanted the thirst to be gone, and I raced on ahead, knowing now that the thirst would never actually go away completely.

Once My thirst was almost completely saturated with the elk I hunted down, I sat on a log to think some things through. First, where I would be going, a bunch of places that, would more or less be exactly what I wanted had to be crossed of my imaginary list. Then, one hit me. The Volturi. Yes, that would work, I thought, only, I was not confident with approaching them, and had only heard of them from what Edward had spoke of them before. Before...

How I craved to be with him. To be pressed up against him and run my fingers across his cheek, pressing my lips against his, hearing him whisper 'I love you' in my ear. Like it was before...

I had to get away from these thoughts, away from this place with all the memories. I had to go to the Volturi. They were in Italy, ok, that's a start. I could swim there. Because I didn't have to breath...
