DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of the characters (except Mairead), or the plot (obviously except where I've changed it). Steph Meyer does. DAMN.

Feedback is appreciated but not demanded. :) BTW: MAIREAD IS PROUNOUNCED MA-RAID. (RHYMES WITH PARADE AND LEMONADE)

ON WITH THE STORY!

CHAPTER 1: Can I have a mars bar?

I know, I know ( AN: ANYTHING IN ITALICS IS WHAT SHE'S THINKING) I wasn't aloud in the forest by myself, let alone sneaking out at midnight to be in it. But it's the only quiet place in Forks, Washington. I thought, trailing my fingers across the dense foliage on the hiking path.

Oh, need to know who I am? My name is Mairead Helena Swan. I have blue eyes, caremelly- gold hair and pale toffee coloured skin. My family? I have a dad, mum, and a stepdad. My older sister died of a tropical disease three months ago. Although I havent seen her, since I lived with mum and Phil, and she lived with Charlie, I still won't talk to any body about it. I loved her so much, but never spent anytime with her. I wasn't even invited to her wedding when she got married. But we were so close in ages. She would of been turning 19 three days ago, and I was turning 18 next week. My eyes welled up with tears and I sat down by a rock pool, and stared into the water, letting the tiny droplets fall into the pond.

I wonder whether Bella is safe in heaven. She really was the best si-.

My thought was cut short by a shadow in the water by the moonlight. I turned around, only to find a mans face inches from mine. I took him in. He had pale, pale skin- paler than Bellas, high cheekbones, beautiful, full lips and wavy black hair. He was gorgeous, but I couldn't see his eyes because he was wearing shades.

Once I'd overcome my flusteredness enough to talk to the man I said "Uh, hi, are you lost?"

He responded by taking a deep breath, smiling- weird, and moving closer, so we were almost touching.

"Actually, I'm really hungry. Got anything to eat?" He had a beautiful voice, like his scent- lavender and honey, and cinnamon, all in one.

I handed him a Mars bar I found in my pocket. He chuckled- what was so funny?, and took his shades off. It was then that I noticed his eyes- What? theyre red! kinda weird contacts. He started circling me. Run. As I started to, he caught me- amazing speed, and threw me- amazing strength, against a tree. Through my heavy- lidded eyes, I saw him approach me and dip his head to my neck, as if to kiss me. He reared up and plunged his teeth into my neck. My last thought was vampire. He's a vampire. And I sunk into blackness.

I woke up by a something shooting past me, grabbing the intruder to my arteries. His mouth detached from my neck. I saw a blond angel grab his neck and - OH MY GOD! SHE RIPPED HIS HEAD OFF! She was going to save me!

Until I noticed her ivory pallor and extreme beauty. She was a vampire too. She was going to eat me too!

The man who bit me was now ripped up, in a screeching, like metal, and another one, with bronze, messy hair was lighting him up in a mound.

And then it was like I was on fire. But I was 100% sure that neither the blond female, nor the bronze male had thrown me in with him. I was now vaguely aware of the bronze one holding me up- inspecting me to eat, I thought. And although there was sadness and pity? in his beautiful, inhuman features, he cracked a smile.

"I'm not going to eat you. We're here to-"

"I interrupted him by screaming "I'm on fire, help! Please help!"

The strange boy who apparently was trying to help me yelled "Rosalie! Take the girl to the house. Tell Carlisle she's changing! He needs to get Renesmee out!"

The girl called Rosalie pickeed me up like a rag doll and slung me over her shoulder, all the while I was still screaming and writhing in pain.

The fire was all I was thinking about. It burned, it burned, it burned so bad. The worst pain in my life. I want to die, I want to die, I want to die so bad.

My eyes were open. The day went, the night came. Another day, another night. One more day, one more night.

I wonder when it'll end. I wonder IF it'll end. What if it dosent? I MUST be a crisp by now. I MUST.

It was then that I noticed a difference in the degree of burning. It was receding- in all but two places- my heart, my throat.

ow, ow, ow!

And it was gone. I opened my eyes.

Wow. Everything was so different, so clear. I could see EVERYTHING. Every dust molecule,every light ray. I felt powerful, strong. I felt ALIVE.

And that was when I saw the Blonde Haired Angel. I dont know what her name was. It was like I had gotten a severe case of amnesia. I couldn't even remember when I had been laid on this big bed with it's red doona. In a fraction of a second, I was standing up, and in another fraction, I was hurling myself in her arms. I was obviously faster because I got there before she killed me. I quickly darted out of her arms, and noticed that her cold touch of before was now 'normal' temperature.

And then I noticed the smell and my throat burned.

Oh, god, it burned so bad, almost as bad as before.

"Uh, excuse me?'' I said, to the Blonde girl "Who are you, Why am I here. If I'm dead and gone to heaven, could you tell Bella I love her?'' Sure, It sounded corny, but I was catholic.

''You know Bella?'' she asked, as if she couldnt care less. I proceeded to tell her about my big sister. She looked like she didnt give a shit.

Wow. I wonder what I did? I thought in my head

"You didn't do anything" someone from behind me said. I whirled around, and saw a bronze haired boy. He looked vaguely familiar, like I should know him.

How can you hear my thoughts? I asked in my head.

"A gift if you will'' he said. "As to answer your questions, she is Rosalie. Just ignore her, as she most likely will ignore you if you do- the blond shot him a death glare.- ''You are here because we call our kind vampires- vampires. Is that what that man in the forest was?

Of all the human memories in my overlarge mind, this was the clearest one.

"Yes. He was. but look in the mirror. Is there something that you notice about us that you dont have?

I looked in the mirror, over my left shoulder. No longer was I the half- pretty high school graduate. I was beautiful. My hair now billowes in waves down to the small of my back. My skin was pale,- like the man's skin. and hard. Rock hard. But my eyes. There were red. Red! as opposed to his-"Edward." Edward's eyes. But my skin. It was rock. Why?

"Defence. Not that we vampires need it."

Okay?

He chuckled. "How's your thirst? We'll teach you everything you need to know, but first you need to eat."

Others? There were others?

"Yes, of course."" Rose, i'm getting Emmett and Bella. There strongest, and have the most control over newborns.

Newborns? I guess that's what I am now. huh.

Edward dissapeared down the stairs, and returned with a muscly, tall, curly- haired man, and a slight brunnette girl.

Emmett and Bella I realised. Then My Jaw hit the floor. This was Bella. My Bella. My sister.

"Your sister?" Edward asked me.

Now it was bella's turn for her jaw to drop to the floor.

"Mairead...?"

So, what did you think? Was it shitty? Was it good?

Any suggestions?

If your still reading this sentence, then you probably are really really bored or actually like it.

Peace out, girl scout!
