Sometimes, I don't understand the logical explanation why Bella was never afraid of Edward and why she often throws herself at him. So instead, I came up with an explanation on my own. In my head, we never knew Bella as deep as we should've seen her to make sense with everything.

Great love is often started with a great journey.

It wasn't Bella who saved Edward but in fact, it was Edward who saved Bella.

I think more of this as a Pre-twilight and also a Pre-Poisoned Freesias story (one of my in-progress stories, I hope you check that one out. :] I think if I finish this, everything will fall into place with that fanfic also.)

Enjoy and please review. ;]

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight and it's characters. I don't even own the song in which I borrowed my title. I strongly recommend for you guys to listen to it with lyrics but I think you'll find out the lyrics as we go on with this story.

Read = Review = Support = Inspiration = Great story. Teehee. 3 You know the drill. ;]


Chapter 1: The Originals

I believe that two souls are always connected with an indestructible string. That string draws these two people together wherein they will eventually meet and spend their lives together until then.

I am one of the originals. They call me Isabella but I'd rather be called as Bella.

The originals are created the same time as the humans. We are the children of the moon. Luna, the moon, wanted to have children and so she did, the stars. But that wasn't enough for her. She was fond of the humans in earth. So she created us based on the humans, often drawn to perfection.

Gaia, Mother Earth, didn't like the idea that Luna's creations are bounded in her territory. Thus creating havoc that makes the children of Gaia and Luna coexisting nearly impossible. She made the children of Luna, monsters. They couldn't die which is the fear of the children of Gaia. The mere abnormality of eternal life will make the children of Luna miserable. They can't grow nor change. That trait repels the children of Gaia from the children of Luna.

Luna heard of this but the act Gaia made cannot be undone. Instead, she made the children of Luna crave for the blood of Gaia. But Luna loved her children so much that they were given civility, which they can take whenever they were ready. Luna showered her children with gifts and special abilities so that they will not hate themselves from the redemption Gaia has created.

Gaia, who always been a jealous god, gave the potential in which her children can possibly become one of the children of Luna, which she regretted in the end.

The highest god of the universe heard of the immature quarrels of Luna and Gaia therefore relinquishing their control over the territories they cover. He gave the people of earth free will in compensation of the mess that these two gods created. Mother Nature and the Moon can only watch their children from afar, making a cycle of mistakes and corrections at the same time.

Eventually, the humans forgot who their creator is and maybe after a longer time, the vampires will.

The first set children of Luna created was called the Originals. Their hearts were pure and created to govern the vampires. The only true enemy of the vampires was time. The longer the time they have, the more miserable they become. Little by little, the vampires lower in number. They killed themselves to escape the doom they have for eternity.

Aphrodite heard of the trouble of the vampires and even the humans. She created love, the most powerful emotion in the world. One by one, she connected two people with invisible strings to give them purpose. They must find the other end.

The challenge however is that these strings are uncontrollable. The strings attach themselves to create the whole that was once broken by the war Gaia and Luna created. Finding the end of the string was a challenge to everyone. Sometimes, the other end will not be found. Even at times, the people are disillusioned into finding the string they think is theirs but belongs to somebody else, creating a warp in every organism's balance on earth.

I have always been lonely. I guess even though I hold all the power and control, it still feels empty in the end. I have no chance of weakness or vulnerability because I know no one can catch me if I did.

People I know come and go. They fall in love, start on their own and if ever they failed, there is this type of courage and strength that burns in their eyes and start all over. No matter how much they failed, they continue to try and eventually succeed.

I envy that about people, humans and vampires alike.

People around me often say that the right one will always come along at the right time. After a thousand years of waiting, I wonder if it is still possible. Did my other half get lost in this world of chaos or is it just me trying to relieve myself that someone will come even though he does not exist in this world alone.

Throughout my whole life, I must say that I haven't drunk any human blood. I force myself to resist it because I must remain pure so that evil won't grow in my heart especially with the immensity of my power and control.

Human blood does not only contain the nutrition that vampires yearn for but it also contains the emotions, the imperfections that a human possesses. Let's just say, for me it is literal that I am what I eat so I'd rather go with animal blood. Their blood is raw and pure that they cannot contain whatever characteristics, which may or may not affect my being.

The Volturi, the royal guards, don't understand my actions. As their queen, I have my prerogative to do my own will and let my people have their own too.

I don't stop them from drinking human blood though I know its consequences. What I do is to control their excessive hunger. I cannot deny them of their instincts and yet, I cannot let them go berserk because of it.

After a millennium, counting after anno domini and way past the millions of years of before current era, my soul grew weary though my youth haven't faded a bit.

There are five of us before, the royal family but our number grew little by little because of their personal reasons, misery for the most part. Eternity may seem a long time of nothingness when you actually live in it. Living for nothing and going nowhere is a lot to handle at some point.

The originals aren't capable of love unless they give up themselves, in which they cannot do. Their depression and self-resentment grew little by little, in the end caused them their death, a death they brought upon themselves.

My brothers and sisters did not follow the rules placed upon them. They gave in to the temptation of drinking human blood, which is voodoo to our kind, especially to us, the highest ones. They felt overwhelming human emotions that they are not capable of handling. In the end, envy overcame them spelling out their own doom.

I guess I will have to give up myself after all, to find the completeness of myself.

But I can't. I can't let my people down and the balance of this world. Nobody is capable of handling my position without the bias and the negativity that may or may not surround the next ruling class.

I knew the consequence of my action if I did.

The Volturi has always been ambitious to control the vampire world and maybe carry their power to the humans as well. It disgusts me how the crave for such animosity. Personal gain is their foremost priority, which should have been the balance of both worlds.

Though I have a chance to live, I cannot escape my fate forever. I must restore balance to everyone. If I did let the Volturi rule at a certain period of time, in the end, I have to come back and clean up the mess they did therefore I cannot die.

But I can give up my immortality.

I cannot look way pass that future because my future will be entangled in it. My mortal self is not powerful enough to create a connection to my immortal self thus making it my only blind spot.

I did not know that my dreams would come true, after meeting a certain vampire that may change my entire life.
