I packed my bag with as many things I could possibly get into it, which really wasn't much. I was leaving. This clan was not what I wanted, killing innocent people to feed? That was no longer me, the only time I fed was when my eyes were pitch black and I could no longer control the hunger. I know theirs another way around this, maybe Ill just begin to feed off animals. There's more than enough deer around here to live off of, it won't be as filling, and sweet as human blood…but itll do. From this day forward I will never kill another human, I could feel my mouth water from just thinking of the taste, that's when I grabbed my bag and walked out the front door. Everyone was off finding someone new to torture; I walked towards the woods and looked back at the house once. I had no clue as too where I was going and where it would lead me, but I knew I had to get away from these monsters…

"Crap" I mumbled under my breath as I snuck up behind a deer but stepped into a pile of leaves causing the deer to run off. I figured this wasn't going to be easy, but I didn't think it would be this difficult. As I kept walking I felt myself freeze when I saw someone emerge from the bushes and immediately held my breath not wanting to lose control and attack them. It was a teenage boy, he had curly brown hair, pale skin and blue eyes; I stared at him and chewed my lip trying to look away but not able too. In the blink of an eye he was standing by my side.

"Hello stranger, what's your name?" he smiled.

"Uh…Hi…I'm Marie"

"Well hey Marie, I'm Allen"

"Nice meeting you, well I should be on my way…"

Wasn't as if I had actually wanted to leave, but I had to get to hunting and this was an unexpected meet up, especially in the middle of the woods.

"Why?" he tilted his head to the side and a confused look came across his face.

"Umm, I need to do something urgent and I'm a bit late"

"Oh?" he began walking closer to me "what do you need to do?"

"Why do I need to tell you? I don't even know you." There was no reason at all that I had to tell him what I was up too, for one I didn't know him.

"Mm-Hm. That's what you think, but I surely know you and where you're from Marie."

I looked at him with a confused look "No you don't".

He nodded "I surely do. You're a part of the clan that lives up in the house behind the woods. Am I right? And your "Oh so powerful leader" is Korisa"

I felt my mouth drop "well… stalker much and you're a vamp?"

"Congratulations. I thought that was obvious and no im not a stalker, I used to have a thing with her. She changed me, used me, and then kicked me out" he shrugged "I do remember you though. You were a newborn and thirsty for as much human as you could possibly get, I did notice you always kept an eye on me"

I rolled my eyes and I felt him take my hand, I pulled it away and he took it again looking down at my bag.

"Running away? You're a rebel but Korisa wont like that".

I shrugged "what do I care? That woman is the devil herself".

He chuckled "That is the truth, look come back with me to my house. You can stay there until you find where to go if you'd like I know Carlisle and Esme certainly won't mind"

I hated being a charity case but I had nowhere else to go so I simply nodded my head and he smiled, leading me out of the woods. I chewed my lip knowing what he said about Korisa was true. When she saw I was gone, she would send people out to find me. That woman believes she has as much power as the volturi. I shuddered just thinking of that combination and silently hoped all would go well....
