I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT!

"Mama! Papa!" I screamed out to them, calling them as I let my little legs run as fast they can. I was panting hard as I looked around frantically for them and a way to escape. I heard shouts and loud footsteps behind me. I ran faster. I was scared.

"Mama!! Papa!!" I screamed one more time but it was useless.

They're dead. My heart started breaking when she said those obvious words but I couldn't believe it. She was my voice, my mind, my conscience, and I knew she was always right but…she needs to be wrong, she needs to be wrong, now!

I'm never wrong. She told me with a stern voice but regretful when she said the next words. They're gone, dead.

No. They can't be!

They're dead! She screamed to me but I still can't…

NO! NO! NO! SHUT UP!

THEY'RE DEAD! She screamed at me and I fell silent. The tears that were building up fell from my eyes as I kept running. What am I going to do? I'm all alone…

Door. To the left. She told me as I see it coming up. Quickly, I changed direction and ran to the door, opened it and went in, only to be in the worst possible room that I could find.

Why… why this room?

At the other side was the leader, the boss, sitting on his desk as he had a surprised look that slowly turned to a smug. Next to him was a tall and young beautiful lady, she looked younger than 20. She looked at me shock and her eyes mixed with sorrow, worry, and guilt. But why? I didn't worry much about her but I was frightened of the man as he stood up from his chair and headed over to me.

He cackled as he spoke with such a grunt voice. "You picked the wrong room, little girl…" I let out a whimper as I backed up a bit from him.

Stand your ground. The voice ordered me and I did so. Lie to him. Tell him you won't run away anymore.

"I-I…I won't run away anymore…" I said hesitantly as I let my head down while the tears kept streaming down from my red stingy eyes. "I won't… it's pointless…"

The hallowed man laughed darkly at my words and said, "It's finally good for you to learn your place… you can never escape…"

Yes we can. And I believe her.

My eyes shot open, awakened from the dreadful childhood memory into reality. I was on my bed, my new bed actually in my new room, and in a new house. I sat up thinking about that dream. Why did I have to dream it now at all times? It just seemed random.

Get up from your bed. My voice said to me as I did as I was always told ever since she first talked to me when I was just 4 years old. I didn't have to be told of what to do next as I start fixing the bed. After that, I went to go and take a shower, going through the usual morning routine.

I should start my introduction now. I'm Eleonora Dawson, and I'm 17 years old. I just moved here from many different places all over the western side of the country. Right now, we had just arrived here in La Push, an Indian reservation, and we just finished unpacking just yesterday. By what I mean 'we' I mean my adoptive mother and I. Janine Dawson, she's about to be 30 years old in another month. She has been with me for 11 years now ever since we escaped from him. But we never actually did, we're still on the run but we make the best of our lives.

Go downstairs and eat breakfast.

I looked at the clock to see it was 7:54. Janine's about to leave for work in Forks; she works as a pharmacist. I head downstairs and entered the kitchen, just when Janine turned around about to call me but was surprised to see me already.

"Ele! Great timing," she said as she paused for a bit before letting out a chuckle. "What am I saying? You're timing is always great. Anyway breakfast is ready and I'll be leaving for work soon"

"I know, Janine," I said, my voice accented with British; I never loose the accent, even if I tried it'll stay with me forever. I sat down with her in the table as we eat the pancakes she cooked.

I looked up to her and even though she was close to her 30s, yet she still looked so young, maybe around my age. Her face still holds its fair beauty, her skin was slightly tanned, her eyes were dark deep green, her hair was silky black, off-shoulders, and she was tall for her age. Unlike me, I can never surpass her beauty but I do have one quality that she doesn't have, which she said what makes me so beautiful than her, I doubt. I have a long wavy dirty blond hair that passed my shoulders, my skin tone is slightly pale, my figure was average but well-fit and slender due to always running, and the quality of what I was talking about earlier were my light violet eyes. A rarity.

"Something the matter?" she asked me and I looked down at my food and continued eating.

"No, nothing at all," I answered.

"Are you nervous about school tomorrow?" she asked me but I stayed silent. She let out a sigh. "Don't worry about it, you're smarter than any girl, I mean you skipped a grade! I'm sure this Quileute Tribal High School won't be a problem"

"I guess…"

Tell her you're going to First Beach today. I blinked in confusion.

First beach? Why?

Just do as I say. I resist the urge to roll my eyes at my conscience. Sometimes, she just doesn't make any sense.

"Hey Janine… I'm going to First Beach later on…"

"Alright then but be careful," she said. "If there is no one around in the beach, leave immediately…"

"Don't worry," I assured her. "You know I can take care of myself"

"Yes…I know," she said but I can still hear her worried tone. After a while, the time was now 8:05. Time for her to leave

"Well, I got to go to work," Janine said as she stood up, grabbed her plate and placed it on the sink. She went over to me and placed a kiss on my forehead before grabbing her keys. "Bye, Ele! I'll see you right after 6!"

She forgot her wallet.

"Janine!" I called out to her before she walked out of the door. "Your wallet!"

"Oh right!" There was a bit of shuffling from the living room before I heard a triumphant 'ah-ha!' from her. "Got it! Thanks, Ele! I'll see ya!"

"See ya!" I shouted back and the door closed. I stood up from my seat and gather my plate then I began to wash the dishes as always.

We leave after you're done with the dishes, your chores, put your hair up in a ponytail, and bring a jacket with you. My eyes narrowed at her demands. Usually, she doesn't order me around this much, and she never did this much.

Any reason why I should?

Because you listen to me and I know what's best for you. I've always had. I was about to argue but decided not to, seeing that she is right.

I know I'm right.

You're full of it.

Just hurry with the dishes.

I rolled my eyes and my conscience left me alone…for now.

After I was done with the dishes and the chores, I went upstairs to brush my hair before putting it on a ponytail and after that I went to grab a jacket before heading out of the house. It didn't take long for me to reach the beach; I was known as a fast walker and I don't even have to break a sweat, well, at least not that much especially in this fairly cold weather.

Walk along the shores of the beach and stopped over by that rock. My conscience came back to tell me what to do again. I am so annoyed but I have to admit, I was curious as to where this was going so I followed her instructions. I walked along the shores as the waves came in gently. The wind was blowing lightly but it brought a shiver to me as I wrapped my arms around me, trying to keep warm. Thankfully, it didn't take long for me to reach the big rock that my conscience pointed me at to.

Can't you just call me, Nora? I was caught off guard by what she just said. I never actually thought of naming the voice in my head since I knew I was only going crazy.

You're not going crazy. She tried to assure me. I assure you that I am just another mind within your mind that knows all…okay that is a bit crazy.

Thank you, Ms. Obvious. You should marry Senior Loco.

Ha, ha, but seriously.

How come you never talked this much before?

Because when you moved here in La Push, a new role has been played out to you. I'll guarantee that your life will be much better after getting through the conflicts.

How would you know that?

I'm your omniscient mind, psychic mostly. Now sit on that bloody rock!

I let out a soft sigh as I sat on the rock, watching the ocean's waves ebb and flow. Now what? I asked in my mind but 'Nora' was silent. What am I supposed to do here, damn it.

Look up. She told me and I did. A scarf was hovering in the air as the gentle wind danced with it as flew close to me. I held my hand out and easily caught the soft thin pink scarf with my hand. Who did this belong to?

"Hey!" some shouted from behind as I stood up to turn to whom it is. My eyes went wide when I see it was some very big and shirtless tall guy, who looked dangerous but he didn't though, not when he's holding a little 4 year old on his shoulders, and running frantically up to me. But still is he crazy? Shirtless in this weather? The little girl was wearing the appropriate clothes but he's not.

"Umm, hi?" I spoke out as he stopped right in front of me.

"Thank you for catching her scarf," the shirtless man said and the little girl on his smiled at me and asked, "May I pwease have my scawf back?"

I smiled at her. Awe, she's so cute. "Why, of course you may," I said as I tiptoed up to hand it to her and she grasped it with her little hands. She smiled at me widely and said, "Thank you"

"Hey, are you that Dawson's kid?" he asked me. I was bit surprised that he knows me but I shouldn't be, after all, this was a very small town. Almost everyone should know if not then this would have been such an antisocial town.

"Why yes…friends call me Ele,"

"Well, I'm Quil and this is Claire"

Ask them if they are friends with them. The voice told me and I have no idea what she was talking about but then I saw a couple of more huge guys like him, shirtless but one short woman with appropriate clothes close to one of the big guys. I'm going to guess that they're a couple.

Ask him! Oh right!

"Are those your friends?" I asked and pointed as he turned around to see them coming to us. He smiled and turned back to me. "Yup"

"Hey, is she the new girl?" one of them asked as I nodded. "Hey, I'm Jared and this is my girlfriend, Kim"

"Hi, you must be Eleonora?" Kim said as she held her hand out and I gladly shook it. "Yes, but friends call me Ele. It's much easier"

"Hey, I'm Brady and I was wondering… are you from Britain? You're talking funny-ow!" he was cut off when another of them hit his arm.

"Sorry about him, I'm Embry"

I smiled at them. They seem to be nice folks besides the whole thing about being tall. "It's very nice to have met you all…and yes, I was born in Britain but I moved into this country when I was just a little girl, although I've never loose this accent of mine…"

"I'm starting to love your accent," Kim said. "It' s really unique, something we never heard in this reservation"

I laughed a bit. I was glad that Nora made me go out today, I'm starting to feel comfortable around here.

This is not why I sent you here. I felt confused of what she just said. What did she mean by that?

"Hey guys!" I looked up to hear a new voice. Two more big guys were coming. Oh my god, how many are they?

"Hey Jacob! Paul" Embry called out to him and he waved back but the second person, Paul, was looking another direction as if bored by all this.

"So who's she?" Jacob asked him but actually he was looking at me, giving me a welcome smile, I smiled back.

"This is the Dawson's kid," said Quil.

"Oh, Elena, was it? Elenore?" I laughed a bit when he tried to guess my name.

"It's Eleonora but I prefer Ele…" I said.

Jacob gave me a grin as he held out his hand to me. "Nice to meet you"

"And it's very nice to meet you as well," I said and shook his hand. Once we pulled our hands away, he started laughing a bit, which left me confused.

"Sorry," he said to me. "Your accent is cool"

"And funny!" Brady shouted and I rolled my eyes. That was when we heard a growl, a low but kind of angry. Everyone froze as I turned my attention to the second person called Paul. I see his eyes were full of anger and rage at Brady, who in turn just backed up and hold his hands up as a mean for surrender. What confused me was that why was Paul growling at Brady? All he did was making fun of my accent, which I'm used to.

Quickly! Make fun of your accent a little bit then flaunt it! Don't ask why, do it now!

I felt the urgency of Nora as it transferred to me. She was serious and she's usually the calm and collective one.

I said now!

Sorry!

I let out a laugh that sounded almost real and I followed Nora's order. "Yes, I must admit the accent is kind of funny but do you know what I think?"

Silence.

"I think you're just jealous that I can talk eloquently with a higher diction that you could never reach," I said with a smug as I added. "And the reason for that is… obviously, I'm smarter than you, or else you wouldn't have to stoop down to a level where an idiot would dare try to make fun of some one with a higher level of an IQ because of the way they talk so fluently…"

There were some 'ooohs' around as Brady was gaping at me for the words I said. I may seem like a nice person but I can be very mean at the same time. Thank you, Nora.

Don't mention it.

I giggled at Brady before smiling apologetically to him, "I'm sorry, Brady but next time… don't make fun of me… it brings out my bitchy violent side"

Everyone started laughing, including Paul. This was going nicely. Brady grinned at me widely. "I'll try to remember that"

"Don't try too hard," I said and everyone laughed again. While they did, I turned my gaze at Paul, who was right now, staring at me oddly. His eyes were concentrating on me as if memorizing every little detail that I have. He continued to stare at me as if I was some magnificent piece of artwork. That would be very exaggerating to put it that way but that is exactly how is looking at me. I stared back at him as well, not knowing what to say.

Smile at him. She ordered me, but why though? And why did she sound so giddy?

SMILE! Tch, bossy.

I smiled at him warmly and I see his cheeks redden a bit. Is he blushing?

"So why are you two here?" Jared asked.

"Well, Sam wanted to talk to us about something," Jacob said. Who's Sam?

A man that we can trust, actually we can trust them all, especially Paul.

Are you in love with Paul?

I like him but not love him…yet and you are in the same position as me.

What are you talking about?

"Hey Ele!" I blinked as I snapped out of my thoughts to see everyone's worried looks. Great. Now they think I'm crazy.

"Sorry, I sometimes space out…" I said, truthfully. I do space out sometimes and this was one of those times. I don't know why but I had the urge to look at Paul and so I did. He was looking at me, again but this time he looked so…worried. Weird. First he's bored, then he got mad, he laughed, he stared at me, he blushed, and now his worried? Extreme mood swings.

"Well if you were listening, we're going to Sam's house," Jacob said and he smiled at me. "Would you like to come? Sam and Emily would sure be glad to meet you"

"Umm well… I don't know…" I said, not sure about it. Would it be completely okay?

"Will you come? Please?" I looked at Paul a bit surprised when he said that word. Awe, so he is a softy, he just has a nasty temper. I was going to say no but those eyes of his were mesmerizing as they filled themselves with hope and they begged me to go. I'm not supposed to get acquainted so soon and especially not this close, since there's always a high possibility...

Not anymore.

What do you mean?

I mean you don't have to move away anymore

What?

"Ele?" Paul called out my name, bringing back to reality. I was still staring at him, still deciding. Should I? "Please?" I heard his tone, giving an off feeling of being so desperate about it. Oh god, I can't resist this.

"Alright then, I'll go if they won't mind"

They won't mind.

"They won't mind"

Hahah, of course they won't mind. When Nora and Paul said it, I believe them.

Wait what?

Wow. You trust him already.

Shut up.

You like him!

I do not!

You hate him then?

No! Stop making this so damn frustrating! I don't hate him!

So you do like him?

I like him but not like-like him!

How can you not? I'm falling for him right now…actually you're just starting to like-like him.

Shut up!

You know I'm always right.

Ah. Damn it.

"Damn it what?" Oh god. 100 percent sure that everyone thinks I'm insane.

"Huh what?" I said trying to act all innocent.

"Um, nothing," Jacob drops the topic off and gets back to the main one. "Well, you coming with us?"

"I just said yes, didn't I?"

Brady laughed. "Yeah, but you say a lot of things"

"Watch your mouth boy, or I'll bite your neck off," I joked and everyone started laughing so hard. I blinked. Was it that funny or was there an inside joke?

Inside joke…

Oh…will you tell me what it is?

No…

Why?

Because I said so

Ugh, whatever.

Haha, you'll find out later on by the end of the month.

A month? But that means none of those thugs for a month, which is fortunate. Really?

Yes, really.

"Hey," Paul called to me and I looked up to him. I blushed a bit when I noticed they all started leaving except Paul and I.

"Oh… did I space out again?" I asked and he gave me a smile. "Yeah you did…so you coming?"

I paused for a while before giving him a smile, "Of course" and we quickly catch up to the others.

I knew right then and there that this was going to be a long month, and I was looking forward to it.

Please review!!
