Chapter One

The sun has set.

I skipped along happily, my heart singing loudly. The sun had hit the hills and was casting a glow across the fields, lighting up the land in an orange shine. The dewy grass reflected the light and the water droplets cast a colourful shine across the plain. I pulled my hand to my eyes to block out the glaring sun and quickened my pace. I hurried towards the shadowy trees before pulling my hand away and allowing myself to look back to the sunset. I froze in the warmth of its beauty and stood in place until the light disappeared into darkness.

It wasn't till a cool gust of wind flew past my face and played lightly with my hair, did I notice that it was now night. Pulling up my feet, I began to retreat from the glowing stars and set course for home. Home was not far now, only a few kilometres away and I could already hear the murmur of the noise from the house. I quickened my pace and began to shoot through the trees, seeing only brief glances of the arched branches and falling leaves while I flew by.

I reached our property and began to slow to a jog. I could smell home clearly now, a strong pungent smell that wafted down my throat like a live fire. Charlie must be here. I sighed as I opened the door as loudly as possible, letting Charlie know that I was home before I could hear his outrageous worries.

"I know she has Jake but don't you think—"

"Nessie is that you?" Alice's high soprano voice called out to me, interrupting one of Charlie's rants with an unnecessary question.

"Yep. Evening, Charlie." I walked into the crowded lounge room and nodded briefly to Charlie as I hung up my jacket.

"Nessie! Your home! Well, would you look at you; you just keep growing on me, don't you?" He gave me a quick look with his crinkled eyes, and covered up his frown with a tight grin. I laughed uneasily and set myself down on the sofa next to Rose.

The room really was filled, seeing as it contained nearly every person in my family; which was fairly big. I had four Aunts and Uncles, or siblings as I liked to call them, Emmett, Rose, Jasper and Alice. Who all sat quite comfortably on the few seats around me, pretending to be interested on the Sunday night game that flashed on the TV. There was also my grandparents; Esme, Carlisle, Charlie and even Sue, who was officially Charlies new girlfriend, as of two months ago, even though it seemed to have been like that a hell of a lot longer. Then there was mum and dad who sat, curled up in each others arms on the ground. It was kinda hard to think about them as my parents when they were all lovey-dovey, so I liked to just refer to them as Edward and Bella. That summed up my vampire family, well except for Charlie and Sue.

Apparently, I was some miracle of god or of the vampire God's or something. But I was one of very few half-vampires, half human, and half monster. Normally, vampires can't have children as their bodies are frozen in one state and can't change to fit the needs of a baby. But, Bella conceived me when she was still human. I nearly killed her too. You see, I may have been half human but I still had the strength of a vampire and I managed to break a large a large amount of bones before I had to be eaten out of her. Gross, I know.

Edward changed her not long after that and she became the beautiful, dark haired, a pale skinned vampire she is today. It didn't end there though, for I was considered by some to be an "immortal child". A human child that has been changed into a monster at a young age and therefore, uncontrollable. At one stage, these monsters had patrolled the streets and killed all those near them, because they didn't know any better and because they were too young to be taught any better.

Irina—a distant and utterly stupid cousin of mine—saw me when I was still a toddler and told the Volturi, who decided to come and visit me. The Volturi are a clan of ancient vampires who have taken it upon themselves to make sure that we are not known of to the humans. Some times this is impossible and stories have leaked out to the humans over time but most times, the Volturi handle any of the mischievous vampires. When Irina came to them, they thought that my parents had created an immortal child and came racing down to kill both me and my family.

We gathered many covens and even our enemies— or now allies—the werewolves came to our aid. We convinced the Volturi of their mistake and only one life was taken, that of my cousin, Irina. When they knew I wasn't dangerous, they had a quick discussion. I could hunt like the others and enjoyed the taste of human blood, even though I knew it was forbidden. But I could also survive on the human food, even if it did not taste as appetising. This considered, they promised not to kill me but I was sure that they would be back soon, just to check in and we would be ready then, with all of our friends and allies.
But things had changed drastically since that day. I had changed since that day. I was actually, only six years and a half old, but had the maturity of late fifteen year old. I would be about seven when I stopped growing and aging. Forever young, just like my family. The only sad thing, was that I would be about the same age as my parents, give or take a few years. This was just another reason why I couldn't call them mum and dad, they looked like siblings to me.

I couldn't go to school either. Not me. I would compromise us and make everyone have to move, again. We already tried me getting to know the town but a girl called Tia got suspicious and told her parents. There had been a massive argument on Tia's sanity, with Carlisle winning of course and we had wound up back in Forks. This was only temporary though. We would be moving off to Alaska soon, where I could finally attend my senior years of high school… with my parents…

That was six months away and until then I had to put up with Rose and Emmett's bad tutoring skills. Since, we returned from New Hampshire, I only had the two of them to look after me. Bella, Edward and Alice had just finished their last semester at Dartmouth and returned only a few days ago. It had taken them four years before they were convinced that I was old enough to not be

babied and they hurried through their schooling, with me only seeing glimpses of them from our home up there. But when the Tia incident had happened, I got sent straight back to Forks, where we continued to hide so that no one would question our eternal youth.

I was still half human though and I still had a beating heart and a warm flush on my cheeks. Luckily, I had my mother's human looks, both good and bad. My eyes were her old brown ones, a deep chocolate colour and I also got her knack for blushing bright red at every chance possible. I looked like my dad too though. I had his bronze-brown hair that sat messily in a mane of curls. My face also resembled my father, with a flawless pale, completion and a dazzling smile. That was the good side of being half and half. Sure, I got the vampire good-looks and quick feet and sharp senses but I also had a human pulse, one that everyone had to hear beat every second of every minute.

It couldn't have been easy living with me. My family had sworn to a "vegetarian" life; one where they prided themselves on not taking innocent, human lives and instead hunting on wild beasts. I shared this life as well and I was sure that it couldn't have been easy living with a beating heart while your stomach wrenched for human life. But no one had ever tried to drink from me; in fact I was the danger. It had taken much convincing for them to trust me not to bite every human I saw. But I knew it was wrong, that's why I had been shocked by Tia's complaint. It had been a year since I returned and Carlisle and Esme came back a few months after that. Carlisle quit his high paying job as a lecturer at Dartmouth and dragged Esme away from the rest of the family to come and hibernate along side me. We only had six months left before I could escape and not have to worry about aging at all.

Six months can be a very long time though and in the past six months I have learned nothing from my daily tutoring. Unless you count Rose teaching me how to flirt with a mirror or Emmett teaching me how to completely destroy a whole forest. It had been a lot of fun though, all things considered.

But I couldn't imagine how behind I would be at school and I really didn't want to be embarrassed in front of my parents, or by my parents for that matter. I couldn't wait till I got to make friends and be a human for once and don't think I wasn't going to take full advantage of that fact.

I shot back to the present quickly, when I heard a loud cough erupting from my side. It felt strange having everyone back at home now, crowded… but whole. Like I finally had every piece of my heart put back together again. Well, almost every piece. Maybe half. But I could never be whole without Jake.

Jacob was my… well; I wasn't sure what he was at the moment. All I knew is that I couldn't live without him. Every second he wasn't there, seemed to take forever and I couldn't help but notice how my heart sped when he entered the room. But I wouldn't consider him my boyfriend. No, not at all. Although, the chances were he would be someday. From the first day I was born, we had been connected. He called it imprinting. It meant that nothing else in the world mattered apart from each other. It made it hard for me to be away from him. So he hated it when I had been in New Hampshire and we had to arrange to meet at least five times a week.

He liked me being back in Forks. Having me around permanently, so he could mother me again. It had been hard for him at first, when he found out he loved me. Being a werewolf didn't help much either. He actually planned to kill me when I was a newborn. He was angry at me for hurting Bella, who he was in love with. But then he imprinted and got us stuck in this whole mess. It was a forbidden love for many reasons and not even I wanted it. Can you imagine loving your mum's ex? It's just weird and embarrassing.

But it's not really like that; were just friends, friends who can't live without each other, but really, just friends. It must be harder for Jake anyway. He had to face his wolf pack and hope that they didn't abandon him for imprinting on a vampire. But they all forgave us, well most of them at least. Leah never really got over it; she still sulks around our house some days. It had to be even more annoying when she could hear this thoughts—some strange thing that wolves can do.

Jake was an Alpha though, the leader of the pack and his first rule was that no one could harm me. There were about seven in Jake's pack and another eight in Sam's. Embry, Quill, Seth, Paul, Collin, Leah and Rachael were all part of Jake's pack. They chose to follow him for their different reasons, but Jake preferred them to be in Sam's pack, who were stricter and formal. Thankfully we had a treaty with both packs that vowed that as long as we did not bite a human, or step foot on their land, than we would not be hunted by the were-wolves.

I stared back out the window, searching for a familiar figure in the dark, one that wouldn't appear.

"Achem…. Ness?" I turned to Alice, who was clearing her throat loudly and smiling at me oddly.

"What?" I asked, my body still turned to the window and peeking past the traditional drapes.

"…Why don't you go fix your hair?" I dragged my eyes from the window to go look at her suspiciously. What was wrong with my hair? I never bothered to do anything special with it. But Alice continued to gaze at me and jerked her head at Charlie, in a motion so fluid that only we vampires could have seen it.

Charlie sat gaping at me, his lined face in open shock and Sue sat cautiously beside him, just as fidgety. I allowed myself a quick look in the reflection of the window and bit my lip in guilt. My hair sat finely on top of my head, twirling down my back in bouncy curls. I focused my eyes further down and stared at the tight tank top Alice had dressed me in this morning. Its white material was stained considerably in a deep red liquid. The smell stirred under my nose and I flew out of the room in an instant.
