A/N: Hey guys! This has long been coming, after all this story is over SIX years old!lol Anyways, I'm sorry for any little mistakes that might have escaped me and my beta. I hope you like the re-written version of this story. I know I do! Enjoy!


Who would have thought that I, Isabella Marie Swan, would end up alone?

I sure didn't. Then again, I'm just complaining really. I'm not completely alone; I have a family. My "father" is Vincent. I had a brother now, AJ, who was overly protective while I was a new born. He took it upon himself to show me the "ropes" as he put it. We all had a very weird lifestyle. While they took human blood, I drank from animals. I just couldn't bring myself to do it, especially when I knew of the alternative. I tried to convert them, but they had been human blood drinkers for too long. They did try it, though. We had developed a type of brotherhood relationship. Despite Vincent passing himself as our father, he was far from it. He was more of a friend to both of us. He might be older than us in age, but he's just as equally immature as me and AJ.

We were really close in my first years, but simply because I depended on them very much. Vincent gave me a home and AJ taught me everything I know. Now though, we have somewhat of a close acquaintance relationship. I only have myself to blame. I've always been distant and hard to break. After I was able to be on my own, I pulled away. Despite having a new life, I was very much still stuck in the past. My heart was broken and so I was in a pit of despair. It hurts to think about them, so I changed my sadness into anger. I became bitter.

When the Cullens had left, shortly after, Victoria came looking for me. Unprotected and vulnerable, I became easy to attack and kill. I had been doing stupid things and had found my way to our meadow. She attacked me there. She played with me when she knew I was left alone. I thought I was a goner and I was almost grateful, when suddenly, she ran off. I felt the presence of another and as the fire burned through me, I begged for him to take the venom out. Instead, he assured me that it would be over soon and like that I was taken from Forks. When I woke up again I found myself halfway around the world.

I don't know what Vincent does for a living, but I know he has a lot of money. AJ is supposedly a college student. He was roughly around twenty when turned, so it was easy to pass him up as a college kid. I have actually seen him go to college, but it doesn't last long. He only does it for a while and when it gets too boring, he moves on. I assume he lives off of Vincent's money, but then again he is nearing his hundredth year. I'm pretty sure he has accumulated his wealth.

Even though I have them with me, it's as if I'm alone. They're never around and I'm always left by myself. AJ is hardly here because he has some girlfriend in Canada, so he spends all of his time there. He doesn't even really go to school anymore. He hangs around here a couple of days at a time and then he's gone. Vincent was the same. Regardless, they were my family.

Only recently we made the move back from overseas to Forks. I had no Idea what compelled Vincent to move back, but here we were. It had been decades and all people I used to know as a human, are dead or should be. It doesn't matter. I didn't look like me anymore.

Like always, I spent my time playing the piano. It was a talent that I had picked up while I was desperate for something to remember... him. I always play the same song; my lullaby. I hadn't really bothered to learn anything else. I played it over and over, non-stop, like today,

I finally stopped for the night when I heard a grumble. I knew who it was, but I still turned around to see AJ standing there.

"Again?" He asked annoyed and I simply shrugged my shoulders.

"There's nothing else to do, but this" I said as I touched the keys lightly.

"Bella, will you ever stop being so depressing?" He asked.

I remained quiet for a minute, but I was not thinking. I stared at the keys under my finger tips and started playing again. He stood there for a while, but then left. They always left me alone when I did this, but sometimes, they came up bothering me to stop. I played a couple of more keys until I saw the sunlight creeping into the room. I sighed and walked into my room.

I chose a simple outfit. I picked out some black jeans and a black hoodie that was quite big on me. I left down my hair and split it in half. I placed my hood over it, so that now most of my hair covered my face. I looked in the mirror and I didn't see Isabella Marie Swan, but Raven Ripper.

I had changed my name long ago because my new name was fierce and out there instead of Isabella Marie Swan, which represented a weak human, which I was no more. I didn't look like Isabella either. I had coal black hair and I wore contacts that gave me a green eye color. I was more beautiful than ever and despite being unbreakable, I looked delicate. I ripped my eyes away from my reflection, not wanting to stare at the stranger before me.

I walked down stairs to see AJ glued to the TV.

"Your first day. You must be exited" He said sarcastically, waiting for me to say something to his comment, but I simply stared at him, unfazed, "You know, for once I would like for you to show some emotion, Bella"

"I have emotions. I just refuse to show them. They're just useless like we are" I replied shrugging my shoulders and AJ shook his head.

"Bella, when you say those kinds of things, especially when you're dressed like that…" He started to say and I raised an eyebrow, interrupting him.

"What's wrong with what I'm wearing?" I asked

"Oh c'mon… You look extremely Gothic, like some chick that's ready to commit suicide or something" He said

"If it was only that simple" I stated

I hear him sigh as I walked out to my first day of hell.

I arrived at the school and it was as I expected. Nothing had really changed. It looked rundown and old, but it had a new paint color. It wasn't my first time going to high school, but it was my first time here. There, out in the main office, were all the kids talking or waiting for friends to arrive. I parked as close as I could and then stepped out.

The minute I did, I heard the familiar faint gasps and the whisperings began.

'Look at her. She must be anorexic… Who could look like that?'

'Look at that babe... She so fine'

'Is she supposed to be some Goth person? Cause she is really pulling off that look'

'I bet she uses drugs or something'

'She looks so sad'

It was always the same things; some things never changed. I stepped into the main office and the lady smiled kindly at me as I walked up to her desk.

"Hello" She said

"Raven Ripper" I simply said. Ironically, I was starting mid-year once again.

"Oh, that's right" She said as she looked through some papers and then handed me a schedule, "Here you go" She said and I took the paper from her and walked away.

"What a weird child. She didn't even return my smile… How rude" I heard her whisper to herself as I walked out of her office.

I looked down at my schedule to see that I had Art class first. I walked to my class as people brushed up against me and completely ignored me. I liked it that way sometimes, though people sometimes didn't. It wasn't a problem though, they usually didn't try to talk to me for long. I gave them the constant cold shoulder, until they never talk to me again.

It's true what AJ says about me being way too depressing.

Whose fault is that? Edward Anthony Masen Cullen. I narrowed my eyes a little, but refused to feel anything. I was tired of crying over him. I went back to my shell where I knew I was safe; that is, until I walked into Art class. There in front of me was Alice Cullen and Jasper Hale.
