AN: Be forwarned, this story is crazy and odd, and a whole lot of weirdness. I wrote it last summer and I was extremely bored, and took some creative liberties with the vamp world...

I stood on the edge. Downward held my demise, my ending. Ah, ending it sounded so pleasant. I could hear the beast behind me. Stepping lightly he came closer and closer. If I could do it, take that one tentative step forward I wouldn't have to suffer. But could I do it? My last minute contemplation cost me. I could smell his breath. Both sweet and revolting at the same time, it disgusted me. With a last breath I leaned forward but I was to slow. The hunter grabbed my waist and pulled me towards him sinking his teeth into my neck.

I screeched out in agony and he pulled back, startled by the pitch of my howling. Something brown smacked into him and I fell limply to the ground writhing in agony. Snarling and ferocious growls echoed in the silence but I couldn't take it in. The pain. Then there was shouting, and voices, and my lungs filled with a vile smell mingling with the hint of smoke.

A cold presence was suddenly by my body and freezing lips were pressed to my neck and the fire relaxed leaving my limbs. The voices around me were heavenly but I flinched at the sounds. They were too alike the hunter to be pleasant. Then the ground faded from beneath me and I was flying. The cold was still there and I waited to die.

I could see the trees race past us and then I blacked out.

I woke up and could feel the pain in every limb. The running for weeks, the constant moving, the numerous and failed murder attempts flooded into my consciousness. Then, I remembered my last encounter with the hunter. "Crap." I muttered, my eyes fluttered open. I took in my surroundings. I was surrounded by about nine stunningly gorgeous angels and one, well he looked kind of Native American , dude. Could you call angels dudes?

"Were not angels." answered a beautiful voice and I flinched. The hunter's voice fresh in my mind made me fear them. I knew now what they were, though their eyes weren't red I was still positive they were vampires.

"She knows." said the voice again.

A tall blond, beautiful vampire came forward hesitantly. "Miss? How are you feeling? I'm a doctor, you lost a lot of blood. Are you dizzy, disorientated?"

"Doctor."I scuffed. "Enough with the charade. I know my times up, get It over with, stop dancing around the flames and walk through the fire." I said indifferently. Damn my hesitating I could have been dead by now and rid of my waking nightmares.

The bronze haired angel flinched.

Then the big Native American one was speaking. "Alright all you vegetarian blood sucking freaks get out and you too Ness I'll talk to the human come on out, out." Vegetarian? And now that I looked at him I could tell he wasn't from any nightmare I had had. He sighed and closed the door and I felt my body relax too. "Man you wouldn't believe the stench having so many of them in the same room with you." he said grinning. "I'm Jacob, the closest thing you'll get to human around here. Oh, wait there is Nessie you'll like her."

"Nessie? Like the Lochness monster Nessie?" maybe the vampire/doctor was right my thought weren't coherent.

He laughed and it slightly sounded like a bark. He was a very sunny, happy person. "Yea like the Lockness monster and the rest of them were well we'll go through all that later. Can I ask who you are?"

Of course. I should have known this was coming. "I'm a..."these past events left me scrambling to remember even that trivial fact. Oh, right. "Kaitlynn, everyone just calls me Kaity."

A sweet, trickling waterfall like voice called up the stairs "Hi Kaity!"

"Shut up Alice your scaring the humans!" called Jacob down the stairs.

"Nuh, uh you are ya big wolf if you'd just get out of the way I could actually SEE!" called the voice.

And though I had no idea what they were talking about I found myself giggling, they reminded me of the other kids at the orphanage back home.

"See,!" called the voice from down stairs "I make her laugh!"

Then a louder voice called "If you think the short freak if funny you should come meet Emmett he'll make you really laugh! Just take one look at him!" I recognized the bronze haired boy's voice.

I heard a loud thump, swearing, then the roar of laughing. I giggled again. They really did sound like a family. Huh.

"See," said Jacob "Were not scary at all, why don't you come down stairs and tell us your story?"

"My story? Uh, It's kind of, well it's odd." I said shyly.

He grinned "That's nothing new around here."

He held out his hand for me to take, when I hesitated he laughed again. "Whose afraid of a few vampires?"

"I am."

"Damn how bad was your encounter with this guy, you look absolutely terrified." he said looking slightly worried now.

"Bad." I squeaked trying not to remember.

"oh."we just sat there for a minute.

"JACOB ESMES MADE DINNER, SWEET! WERE HAVING APPLE PIE FOR DESERT!" Jacob laughed.

"That would be Nessie." he said. "Please come with me and allow us to explain, we don't bite, well the bloodsuckers do but only animals."

I nodded, not sure if I could actually get the words out.

He opened the door and standing there was a short, pixie like vampire. Short black hair spiked out in all directions framing her face nicely. She held out a red sweater ensemble. "You'd look SO adorable in this Kaity!" she squealed. "Ooh, I can see it now, you'll fold! YAY!" and her eyes glazed over slightly like she actually was seeing it.

Then Jacob "How old are you Kaity? You can't be older than sixteen, your such a tiny little thing." He was right I was short, only five foot one.

"Actually," I said "I'm sixteen exactly."

"She kinda reminds me of a fairy, with her long hair and tiny body. She's only just taller than me, maybe by an inch." The pixi vampire said, little did she know she was closer than she could ever imagine.

After that we walked down the stairs in silence, the tiny vampire twirling her fingers through my long, curly, black hair, murmuring to herself quickly and quietly. It surprised me how much I didn't mind this, the vampire looked so small and, well, happy, I didn't want to ruin her fun.

We came out into a large living room and the vampires were all there. My eyes scanned over them and I shrunk into myself a little.

"Hello, Kaity welcome to our home why don't you sit down and we can talk." greeted a vampire with billowing hair that looked like Snow white or another princess.

I looked around the room sheepishly. I slowly walked over to the wall near the stair case and slid to the floor. All eyes were on me.

"Hi." I said quietly.

"Kaity I'm Esme, this is Carlisle," she motioned to the doctor vampire. "Emmett," the big scary one with a large grin on his face "Rosalie" a beautiful blond that made me have to blink to make sure she was real, "Alice" the pixi one still standing by the stairs "Jasper" blond that looked like someone had a knife shoved up his ass. "Edward" the bronze haired boy with his arm around a tall vampire with dark brown hair and an understanding face "thats Bella, and the one behind them is Nessie." I saw a girl my age poke her head out from behind the couch, she was extremely beautiful, a wide welcoming grin spread across her face. "And this is my family," she saw the shock in my eyes, they were a family. Wow. "And we lead a slightly different lifestyle than most. We hunt animals not humans."

I gasped. Was that possible? "Really?" I asked incredulously.

"Yes." answered Alice as she skipped over, gracefully. "I'd much rather make you look stunning that eat you, seriously where's the fun in that. Then, I wouldn't have a new friend."

It was strange, I could actually see becoming friends with the tiny vampire. Then the other vampires face flashed in my memory and I winced slightly. The bronzed haired vampire, Edward hissed and I stared open eyed at him

"What is it Edward." asked Bella.

"She was thinking of him." the word him came out like a disgusting word he didn't want on his tongue.

How did he know what I was thinking? "I have a special ability,"he said answering my unspoken question. "I can read minds."

"And I can see the future."Piped up little Alice.

"Really?" This was a lot to take in.

"Oh my, Kaity are you hungry, thirsty, can I get you anything where are my manners?" said Esme and I could see her playing the mother role. And what role would I play? I knew their secret and I was guessing that wasn't a good thing. Where would I go? What would I do? I had nothing to go back to.

I saw Carlisle frown and Edward nod extremely fast, in one short quick movement, but I could see it. I was special too. I lightly brushed my fingertips across my neck lace, the only tie I had left to my mom. I could feel the fairy shimmer lightly under my touch as the magic kept pace with my beating heart. This was the reason he was trying so hard. To him, I was different.

I gazed around the room slightly confused. Why hadn't they reacted the same way to the smell of my blood? It was so much more potent than any human they could compare me to.

"What's different about you? I could feel that when you touched it." Edward asked. "And why are you surprised at our calm?"

I huffed. "I guess I should start at the beginning."

So I started "I was born in Florida in 1809." there was a collective gasp. "I don't remember anything up until about three years ago, my mom was with me, she was so beautiful. She told me about her people and how she couldn't keep me like she wanted, because I was half human. She told me they had kept me asleep all those years until they decided what to do about me. My mom gave me this necklace and told me she hoped I could survive on my own. Then I was sent to an orphanage, I told them I was sixteen and I was. Fairies go through sixteen years of growth then stop aging. So according to them I'm an adult now. Last year I was sent on my own and I moved to the tip of California. About a year after I moved a vampire came to town. He cornered me, saying something about my smell. My mom had told me to watch out for vampires because fairies have a much strong more potent scent to them than humans. Fortunately, fairies had the advantage with being able to fly. Only here I was with the same blood and no escape method. " I sighed "The hunter tried to draw things out though." I tried not to think about how he had tried to draw it out but slipped.

A low growl came from Edwards throat and I guessed he was very protective. "Of course I'm gonna be protective of my family and disgusted by that horrid scum bag!" he yelled.

"Calm yourself son."said Carlisle in a soothing voice.

"How can I? She's not telling the whole truth! He tried, he tried to..."But Bella cut him off.

"I think we get the jest of things." she said softly.

"He didn't get far" I continued. "I was so frightened I hadn't realized my pendant glowing and then I was outside of Seattle but the vampire was on my trail. I couldn't remember how I'd gotten there but I'd take it. He was close though, fortunately I was fast, just as fast as he was. My senses were heightened from the fairy genes. There were a couple of times he was right there only a few feet away but I out ran him. Then I entered La Push I found the cliff and was about to jump, to end it but for once he was fast enough. This time I had no help. He almost killed me, but then you guys showed up and you know how it went from there better than I do."

"Wow" said Carlisle "Fairies! Wait, can you have young?" he asked immediately going to the research point of view.

"No when I was born they injected something into me that prevented it, my birth was extremely frowned upon and they didn't want more Me s running around." I answered blushing slightly.

"Oh, okay then how much human are you and how much fairy?" he asked. The family listened intently.

"Um, Like I said my speed is improved, my eyesight, and my hearing are too. Besides my size and features and maybe the brief almost fart of magic I'm human. I think I figured out why you all aren't affected by my blood. Maybe it's the animal blood. It makes you good, pure of heart." I smiled at my explanation. Then I remembered something."Oh wait, I don't eat. Something about plants are friends and animals are brothers I get energy from the sun, kinda like a plant."

"Do you sleep?" asked Nessie talking for the first time.

"Yes, thats what got me in trouble so many times while he was hunting me, I would fall asleep." I said starting to feel more comfortable.

"Okay now that everyones caught up on Kaity's life story she desperately needs a hot shower, bed , and then... A shopping trip!" everyone groaned in unison, I must be missing something"Okay, Okay ill go while she's sleeping, you have to admit though she needs clothing." said Alice. She then grabbed my arm and started pulling me back up the stairs.

"I'm coming too Alice!" called Nessie's voice. I thought I heard her murmur something along the lines of "So you don't torture the poor girl"but because she was moving at human speed she was too far away for me to hear clearly.

Alice's arm was extremely cold, I could feel the frost sinking into my bones. Once we reached the top of the stairs I pulled away. "Sorry." I mumbled when they looked at me curiously.

They dragged me into a large bathroom, wait scratch that this bathroom was the size of my bedroom back home. "Shower!" Alice commanded me before closing the door and locking it.

I did as I was told, letting the warm water soak me through. I sighed contently as I stepped out into the steaming room. Just as I wrapped the towel around me Alice opened the door, "Come on!"

She led me to a large bedroom. It had and off white carpet, the furniture was silver wrought iron, with delicate flowers intertwined into it along with leaves. That was only accentuated by the soft rose color bed spread and pale blue walls. I felt like I was in a rose garden. "I know it's not your style, you prefer blues but till I can take care of that do you think this will do?" asked Alice.

I stared at her blankly, was she implying that this was MY room? I just nodded at her. Were they going to keep me? Another daughter for the bunch?

Then Alice pointed out an outfit on the bed by saying "There's some clothes for you there, change then get some sleep."

Before I could ask my question she had left. Again I did as I was instructed. The outfit was a white tank with a pair of pale blue and white polka doted pajama bottoms. I ran my towel through my hair once more before climbing into the warm and welcoming bed.

The door cracked open and Nessie came in. "Can I talk to you?" she asked.
