CHAPTER 1: the new kids EPOV
EPOV:
Monday, the first day of my uncountable amount of school weeks. I sighed. It was foggy and overcast; if it wasn't, I wouldn't even be here. I trudged to English, or I hoped I looked like I was trudging. It's hard to be ungraceful when you are what I am. I sighed again as the entire school's thoughts began whispering in my head. They were all relatively the same, some people repeating others
Did you see the new kids?
They are so aloof, man. That chick won't talk to me. Neither will the guys. They are nearly worse than the Cullens.
Their clothes are so depressing. Where did they buy those things?
That guy is BUFF! Nearly as big as the other Cullen dude.
After a while, I stopped paying attention completely to the humans' thoughts and tried to find out if I could see into any of the new kids' thoughts. I searched through every mind that I could reach but only two sounded different from the rest of the populace's. I listened closely to each one.
I hope Kagome was serious when she said that Raven could come over. Kagome's been acting strange since we got here and I was hoping she wasn't thirsty for some of my girlfriend. That's a great way to have my girlfriend hate me for the rest of her life; having Kagome bite her.
I could practically see the grimace pulling at the boy's mouth that was carried with the thoughts he was unknowingly giving me. I wondered idly if he was so unsure because of his looks and I stopped thinking of it. It wasn't my business of seeing about people's relationships. That was Alice's. Instead, I focused on the other thought. It was also male.
Grrr. What is with all these goddamn humans and looking at my sisters. If Kagome hadn't made me promise I wouldn't kill any one this time, I would make sure these people won't ever look at Kit-Kat again. Her and her guilt.
I was confused with these thoughts that came to me. 'Kagome? Kit-Kat? Does this person have more than one name?' There was no picture of the person this guy was talking about so I couldn't tell what the Kagome person looked like- from neither of these two guys. My thoughts plagued me for most of the day.
At lunch the thoughts from earlier were becoming more animated, the people in the lunchroom excited. I was sitting with my family of four other 'teenagers' in our usual corner that was not populated by humans.
I listened to the thoughts, wondering what had the boys nearly breaking their necks looking around the room while many girls giggled and kept glancing towards the entrance to the cafeteria.
The girls are HOTT! They are in the same league as Rosalie, the awesome babe.
The muscle boy looked at me in 3rd period! He has the best mahogany eyes!
Did anyone see the dreamy longhaired guy? He is so tall compared to me!
Are those new guys with the girls like the Cullens? If they are, I'll just have to persuade the hottie in the sexy dress to come to me. Images of some kid using his 'sex appeal' to get someone was tacked onto the end.
I crinkled my nose slightly at the last thought. I looked around and placed it with that Mike Newton kid. He was talking to his friends, but every once in awhile he would look up to the doorway eagerly before going back to his friends.
Edward, what are you thinking of? - Alice
What's with you? You look like you ate food. - Emmett
I turned to them and whispered quickly. "There are new students and Mike Newton decided he wanted one of them. He's giving me disturbing images." They snickered at me but said nothing. I stopped paying attention to the thoughts and listened absently as the voices faded to murmurs in my head.
Two minutes later there were many gasps in the lunchroom. I quickly looked towards the entrance and did a double take.
Four beautiful students in dark clothing cat walked into the lunchroom, well the girls did anyway. The boys just walked silently and somewhat lankily after them. The two girls were whispering to each other while their arms were linked and they were turned so I couldn't see their faces clearly. The boys behind them were mumbling something to each other and would occasionally glare in the directions of any boys. I scrutinized their outfits with a designer's eye (a habit I picked up from Alice) and was amazed at their style.
The girl on the right had a tight black mini dress with a crimson belt around the middle, so I guessed she was the one that had caught Mike's attention. There were heavy boots on her feet and black and red striped knee socks going up her slim legs. On her wrists were black bangles and red and black striped fingerless gloves that went to her elbows. Her hair was onyx colored, wavy and down to the middle of her shoulder blades while her bangs were raggedy and a dark shade of onyx-blue from what I could see.
The girl she was talking to was wearing baggy pants that were coated in thick chains around the front and back. Boots like her friend's were on her feet and once I could see a flash of green and black socks. She wore a fishnet shirt over a black tank top and was wearing elbow length green and black striped fingerless gloves. She only had a spiked bracelet on each of her wrists. She was carrying a medium sized gourd shaped case that looked like it would house a small guitar or violin. Her onyx hair was to her shoulders and semi-straight. Her hair was cropped in a straight line, not a single hair longer than the others. Her bangs though were cut at different lengths and dyed red, green or her natural hair color.
The big guy was wearing a tight muscle shirt that said 'Careful, I bite' with dripping red letters. His muscles were huge; I could let him have that much. They flexed every time he swung his arms to his steps. As he swung his arms, I saw a black bag that was a bit longer than his torso swing with his arm. He was carrying something but I couldn't tell what with his body blocking most of it, but it looked rectangular. He was wearing black jeans that were a bit muddy on the bottoms and the same clunky boots as the girls'. He had a single piercing on his eyebrow on his hard, but handsome face. A black skull hat covered his hair but I could see that there was a long line of hair going down the middle of his head while the rest was bald. I was guessing it was a really longhaired Mohawk that was under his hat. The line of hair went to the middle his shoulder blades where it swished lightly. Around his throat was a spiked collar that looked like it was a bulldog's before it was his. His mahogany eyes were glaring at the boys at the tables he was passing. Even with his boots I could barely hear his footsteps or the others' with their clunky shoes in the now quiet lunchroom.
Lastly I looked at the last member of their group. He was tall; he would probably only be an inch shorter than me. His outfit was simple; black buckle jacket with a long sleeved white silk shirt and ripped black skinny jeans. His hair was to his shoulders and was sort of wavy. The collar on his jacket was up and hid the boy's neck. His hands were in his pockets with the wrists of his shirt bunching up where his hands disappeared into his pockets. His brown eyes were flitting around the room, looking cautious.
All of the people had pale skin and were light on their feet. They couldn't be human with the way they were moving. But they couldn't be one of us, could they? The two guys have brown eyes. Since when have I ever seen a vampire with brown eyes? Contacts maybe? It would not be likely; the acid in our eyes would melt them in a few hours. I sighed slightly. I started to wonder what they were thinking.
I focused on the mental voices again and could hear the big guy's voice.
How can either of these two ignore the looks they're getting? The little boys in here are practically begging with their eyes to rip their clothes off. Like hell I'd let any one of these pieces of crap near these two. Mom told me to watch out for them and I will. I just hope Alexander will cope for being 4 miles away from his precious Raven. I swear that guy needs to loosen up when it comes to her. He also needs to come to practice more often. He's shirking his responsibilities as bass guitarist and second lyricist…
After the guy started thinking about dynamics and schedules, I stopped and focused on the other guy- Alexander's thoughts.
I could see as his eyes flickered exceptionally fast across the room before he would look towards the females in front of him before going back to inspecting the room. His mind was going through everything with a childlike curiosity and he was always questioning what it was that he was seeing. Every time he saw a boy looking at the girls in front of him, I could feel him getting a bit protective. His thoughts were similar to the other guy's thoughts from earlier. 'These humans do not get it. This is why I never went to school. Getting all these looks is irritating me. Why can't these humans understand that Kit-Kat are off limits! I agree with Rocco; if any of these slime balls try to do anything to them I will kill them…smirks. Rocco will get a laugh from the fact that the pacifist wants to beat the tar out of something... Huh. That guy is looking at us. What's his problem?'
All of a sudden, I could see my face pop into his mind. I was staring at him and I hadn't even noticed! Shit! I turned back to the rest of my family and wouldn't answer to their probing eyes. I just stared at my untouched food and started searching through the mental voices in my head. I searched through all the girl voices but all I could pick up were the usual girls. I could feel a slight voice that was like someone breathing but when I concentrated on it, it would not get louder, it would disappear all of a sudden.
I was getting really frustrated that I couldn't see into the Kit-Kat/Kagome and the other girl's mind. I was so used to everything and everyone being an open book to me but when it came to them I couldn't hear a thing! All of a sudden I was overwhelmed with the sense of calm that Jasper was giving to me. Although he was aiming for complete calmness, there was a tinge of worry in the emotion. I didn't want to tell any of them of my frustration so I turned to look at the cafeteria that was filled with humans and the confusing students. I watched the four students go to the lunch line and watched as each ordered something and as I watched the girl in the dress let go of her friend's arm to reach for the lunch, I suddenly could hear a new voice in my head. It was one of the girl's voices.
'These days, you can never get any decent food. Hunting seems like a good idea considering this slime that they call food is burning my nose. But like nee-chan ('nee-chan?' I thought. 'who is that?') said, we have enemies here now. The treaty covers us for now but if we just give one spark of power they will be all over us. But powers become so handy while hunting in the mountains... Maybe tonight we can go. What should we wear though? Camping clothes so no one will care? Our normal attire like Rocco is so comfortable doing? If Alexander has the maps, we can figure out where to hunt safely. Also if she can stop any plans from forming in the shits' heads, sister will let us hunt. I wonder what her --'
All of a sudden, the thoughts were gone. I focused on the girls again and saw that the two girls' arms were linked again while they both carried lunches. They turned towards us and I froze while kids in the lunchroom that hadn't seen the kids clearly took large gasps of air. They were beautiful, even more beautiful than Rosalie (although, these were dakrer versions, if you know what I mean.). The girl in the dress had blood red lips that were full, a perfect nose, big smoky gray eyes, a pierced lip and eyebrow, and ears that were pierced several times with black pearls. The girl in the pants (her sister apparently) had the same blood red lips, perfect nose, and pierced areas, but her eyes were a rich green, probably similar to mine when I was still alive. They both had model bodies. The girl in the pants had a more angular cat-like face while the other had a more defined heart shaped face. Although they were similar- twins probably- I definitely was more attracted by the dress girl. Although I was looking at them, they were not looking at my family or me. They were looking for an empty table.
They strutted through the tables, barely glancing at the crowded tables as they searched for an empty or a barely populated table. As their eyes roamed over the room, I saw the big guy - Rocco- lean forward and whisper something in the girls' ears. They nodded and steered from the middle of the room to near our table. I could feel the others freeze as the foursome came near our table. I could hear my family's thoughts on their ideas of what they were doing coming near us while I just waited to see what happened next. I could hear Rosalie thinking disdainfully about the students, Jasper panicking to himself about their strange emotions, Emmett's excitement of meeting new people, and Alice's Italian anthem... Wait. Alice thinking of the Italian anthem? I glanced at Alice from the corner of my eye and saw her smiling impishly. I narrowed my eyes at her and without looking at me, she shrugged. I knew she was hiding something but I couldn't tell with her singing the anthem in her head. I turned away from her and watched the students.
They had neared us and when I thought they were heading for our table, they turned quickly away from us and settled in the table a few feet from ours. As soon as they sat down, the room burst into chatter.
Why are they sitting near the Cullens? Don't they know the Cullens never notice anyone? As if they have something I don't.
Man! They are near the Cullens. This is gonna get hard. How the hell will I get the girl away from the Cullen Zone without getting their attention?
Are they sitting there because they don't want to sit near us? Those wannabes probably want to be accepted by the Cullens' group. Well I highly doubt they will if I wasn't accepted.
Damn! I knew they were together! If they weren't, they would have separated.
They probably had wanted to sit with THEM but had lost their courage before they could and decided to sit near them instead.
The negative and depressed conversations and thoughts in the room were giving me a headache but I stayed. I stared at my food, occasionally grabbing a piece of something, pretending to eat it, then chucking it really fast into the trash bin that was near the table with the group. I swear that every time I did it, the girls would look in our direction but I wasn't sure since I couldn't read their minds! I decided to leave so I picked up my tray and dumped it. I went back to the others to tell them my plan. 'The group has been quiet for awhile now', I thought. I was curious as to why they just sat there so I stayed bit longer than I wanted to, just to see what they would do.
After five minutes of silence from the group, I heard an overdramatic sigh from their direction that was very loud, loud enough for nearly everyone in the room to hear it. A lot of chairs turned and I saw that everyone was gawking at the people next to us. I glanced over and saw the gray-eyed girl get up gracefully and sit on the tabletop, unzipping the case I saw with Rocco a few minutes ago. She slid the case off of a rectangular shaped board and I was surprised to see an electric keyboard. The other girl got up and stood next to her sister, unzipping her own case. Chains clanged together as the girl moved to get the violin out of the case. The violin was a sleek black instrument with a green staining. The girl pulled out a dark green bow and pushed the case to the boys, who took it and the other case. Chains (the name I gave to the girl with the chains) started tuning the violin, tweaking the knobs to and fro.
The other girl just sat, waiting. After finishing tuning, Chains nodded to her sister and the girl turned on the keyboard, turning the volume up loud. Then keyboard girl started playing a haunting melody, a slow one that had undertones in it. It was beautiful and I wondered how she had come across it. She opened her mouth to speak and I swear I saw pointed teeth. A smooth voice -like water- came from her mouth and many people froze to hear it.
"My name is Kagome Sterling. This" Kagome gestured to the girl next to her with her head ('Ah, so this is Kagome' I thought.) "is my sister Kit Sterling. Our -family- calls us Kit-Kat. ('Man!' I thought. 'how could I not see that! Nobody would name one kid Kit-Kat. It's like a group name!') My brothers; Alexander and Rocco Sterling. Here is a song we have from our band, Crucifixion. Ready Kit?" Kit nodded. The melody was still playing but Kagome paid no attention to her fingers. She seemed to know what to do. Her fingers flew across the keyboard as she opened her mouth again, letting out a haunting but beautiful singing voice.
"Playground school bell rings
Again
Rain clouds come to play
Again
Has no one told you she's not breathing
Hello I am your mind
Giving you someone to talk to
Hello
(piano solo, no vocals)
If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake
From this dream
Don't try to fix me I'm not broken
Hello I am the lie
Living for you so you can hide
Don't cry
For the first two verses of the song, Kit had remained motionless. Now, two seconds after the second verse, she picked up her bow and started playing a haunting melody accompaniment to the piano one. She played her violin for the long break between the verses 2 and 3 and softly into the third...
Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday"
After the end of the song, there was silence before the room erupted into applause. I cracked a smile. The vocals were fantastic and so was the playing. I clapped along with the rest of the room, following the Sterlings with my eyes as they bowed to their audience and put away their instruments. As soon as the two -Kit-Kat- finished putting their instruments away, I left the lunchroom. I didn't want to be rude to them and leave if they played another song but now that I knew that they were done, I left. Leaving the Sterlings to the mercy of the forks student body.
FIN FOR NOW!!
