This story takes place 3 weeks after Edward and the Cullen's left Bella in New moon. Bella hasn't started hanging out with Jacob yet.

What should I do today? Hmm…. Maybe I should go to the mall and get a whole new look for the new and improved me? Yes that is the perfect thing to do. I bet your wondering why I would go shopping, and why I would need a whole new look? Shouldn't I be mopping around since Edward and the whole Cullen family left me in Forks, all alone? No. Edward does everything that benefits him. He is a selfish creature.

I got a note from Esme Cullen Yesterday. The women I look up to as mother. I was tempted not to read the note, because why should I care if she didn't care enough to say goodbye to me. But it is Esme, and I can't stay mad at her, she is to caring. Plus I am tired of moping around all the time. I want to start over and that is what Esme's letter convinced me to do. Her letter read:

Dear sweet Bella,

My daughter, we all miss you very much. You were and still are the piece that we were missing that completes us, the Cullen's. Nobody is the same without you. The Cullen family is falling apart, and we are all powerless to stop it. Carlisle, my dear sweet Carlisle, I never see him anymore he is always at work and when he's not at work he is in his study sobbing for the daughter he left behind. Alice hardly shops anymore; actually she only shops when she has too. She doesn't even talk to Jasper anymore! Jasper blames himself for the whole thing. He thinks if he could have had better control that we would still be in Forks. Rosalie hardly looks at herself in the mirror any. She hardly even cares about how she looks. Emmett our big joking, teddy bear, doesn't tell jokes anymore. He is so angry at Edward for making us leave. He thinks of you as a sister and always will.

Me, well I hardly do anything. I don't garden, I don't decorate the house, and I hardly am my motherly figure any more. I am not a mother. How does a mother leave her daughter behind and leave with the rest of their family? I did not wright this letter to make you feel bad or make you think this is your fault because it's not. Please try to get over us. We love you, even Rose though she won't admit it. I don't know what Edward told you but the real reason for leaving was for your safety. Edward tried to tell us that you broke us with him. That you realized that hanging out with vampires is dangerous and that you never wanted to see us again. Emmett and Rosalie beat the crap out of him for it. Nobody really knows were Edward is, all we know is that he is somewhere in South America. I am breaking all Edwards's rules by contacting you. Alice tells me to tell you everything Edward took is under your floorboard, that you will know which one. I will try to write you again but I don't know if I will be able to. Nobody knows that I am righting you except Alice, but you can't keep anything from Alice.

In this envelope I enclosed the Cullen crest, every Cullen has one, and you are a Cullen now and forever. If you ever get in trouble with Vampires the crest shows you are protected by us. I also give you 500,000 dollars. Please spend it as you wish. Don't worry, it doesn't even dent our family founds. Even though Edward told Alice not to look into your future she is. You are family and we protect family. Remember once a Cullen always a Cullen, even if we're not with you. Try to move on with your life, find happiness, and have a family. If you wish not to hear from me again, write a note, Alice will see. Even if you don't wish to hear from me again you can still use the money. If and only if there's an emergency you can reach me at 338-060-8097. Please I beg of you, don't do anything reckless.

With all my love,

Esme Plat Cullen

The Cullen crest that she gave me is on a bracelet. It not likes the boys or Esme's, it's more like a charm bracelet. Well off to the mall I go.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 5 hours later. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At the mall I got a whole new wardrobe. No more shy, naive Bella. I even got a haircut. I had my hair layered, cut to my shoulders and died black. A whole new me. The new Bella knows she's pretty. Since Edward left I have done nothing but sit in my room, but no more. Now I am going to get over the Cullen's, move on, build a life for myself, but I will not forget them. I could never forget them. Like Esme said once a Cullen always a Cullen.

After I finished shopping on the way home I saw this beautiful black mustang at a car dealer and I just had to have it. I traded my truck in for the Black Mustang. I guess my truck was a collector's item. So I got the mustang for free. Cool I know.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~At home~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I had just finished putting my Clothes away when the phone started to ring. I ran down stairs to the phone, without tripping I might add. Strange that's not the only thing different. When shopping I noticed I had to buy bigger seized clothing because I had got a lot taller- I used to be like 5'6"and now I am about 6"- and my boobs are bigger too. I had to buy all new brawls.

"Hello," I answered the phone.
"Is this the Swan residence?" asked an official sounding voice.
"Yes it is. This is Bella may I asked who I am speaking too?"
"This is officer Twang and I am calling to tell you that Chief Swan was shot on the job and died instantly. We're very sorry for your loss." No he can't be dead. "Th-thank you," I said shakily.

Then I hung up. My body starts to shake. At first it's just little tremors but over time they get stronger and stronger. I don't know why but all of the sudden I had this feeling to be in the woods so that's what I did. I ran out of the house and into the woods. I didn't stop running till I was in major pain. I fell to the forest floor and started to shake really badly. It feels like all my bones are being snapped and rearranged. I couldn't take the pain anymore; I passed out from it.

When I woke up everything was clearer, I could hear a stream that is nowhere in sight, I could see colors that I have never seen before. I am most defiantly not human and I am not vampire, then what am I? I still am in pain it's just a dull throbbing now. I look around me and I see I am in Edwards and I's meadow. I look down to wear my hands should be and see a white blooded paw. What the hell? I try to get up and cry out in pain but instead of a human cry I get a more animalistic cry.

Ok be strong. I tell myself. I get up and fight back a cry. I go over to the stream and look in. What I see is shocking. I don't see me. Well it's me, but not me, I guess. I see a freakishly tall, beautiful, snow white, wolf with naturally red streaks throughout my coat.

What am I? Think Bella, think. What did Jacob say about his ancestors? He said they were enemies to the cold ones, vampires. Wolves that's it! There descended from wolves. Wait! I am not a Quiltent though. Unless, no Charily wouldn't lie, would he?

What do I do? I can't stay here, but I don't know how to change back. Maybe if I run to the La push border I can get help. Howell, I can howell. So that is what I do. On my way to the border I take in my surroundings. The forest is so pretty, while running it didn't look like the green blur I am used to. I could make out every leave on every tree. I blurred in and out of the trees gracefully. Ha, who would have thought I or anyone else would call me graceful.

I can tell I am not running as fast as I could if I wasn't hurt. But I probably shouldn't even be running now at how fast I am going, with all my bones just being rearranged.

I just got to the border. Shit. I am in so much pain that I fell down. I let out a whine. I hurt all over I knew I shouldn't have run. What was I supposed to do? Bark, I mean howell. I let out a high pitched howell that you would only be able to hear if you wear a vampire or werewolf.

Within the next few seconds I have a voice in my head.

"Hello?" I hear a male voice say/ask in my head.
"Help please," I cry out.
"Where are you?"
"By the border by this abandoned house."
"I will be there in about 10 minutes." "Ok."

About two minutes go by before anyone talks. "I am Sam Uley."
"Bella," I introduce myself curtly.
"As in chief Swan's daughter?" Sam asks with disbelief in his voice.
"Yes… but he died just recently," I reply sadly.
"I am so sorry; Chief Swan was a good guy. He will be missed."
"Can you tell me what we are? How is it that we can communicate like this is?" I ask letting my curiosity get the best of me.
"We are Werewolves and we can communicate like this only in wolf form when are minds are linked as one. I will tell you more about us later, when we are face to face."
"I am not Quiltent so is it that I changed into a werewolf?"
"I don't know," Sam answers with curiosity.
