Chapter 1: rose

I could hear voices in the back of my head, telling me I was dead. It was over. I could feel a sharp burning pain shooting threw my chest.

Hearing the conversation in my head over and over again, like a broken record. Feeling every second of pain they gave me. The memory stained my brain.

There was no escape, dead or alive my past would haunt me for the rest of my life...

Flashback.

"hay rose! Come on over here, we have been waiting for you." Royce called me over from the other side of the block.

I smiled sweetly and joined him. He wasn't alone. Several of his other friends circled around me holding up beer bottles in their hands.

"See I told you John my Rosie was a looker."

"It's hard to tell with all those clothes on!" all the men stared down at me laughing. Their breath smelt of nothing but alcohol. They had clearly had way too much to drink.

Royce's grip became stronger and tighter around me.

"Royce your drunk." I stated trying to escape the grip he had on my waist and neck. Pulling away with as much effort as I could, it was helpless. He wouldn't hurt me though. He was only drunk.

"Hay where do you think your going? I am not finished with you rose, none of us are!" pulling me back harder. All the boys closed up the gap between us.

"What do you say rose, let's take off a few layers of yours." his ice cold hand shot down my coat ripping it off.

"get off of me! It's over. We're over, I will see you tomorrow, sober" yet again I struggled against his embrace.

Before I knew it several of his friends were helping him tare all of my clothes.

"Stop your all hurting me! Stop!" I yelled whilst trying to fight them all of at once. Kicking and hitting them at random, but they didn't budge.

"Calm down Rosie, it will be fun."

I heard the sound of zippers being undone. One at a time the men launched themselves at me. My strength to defend was nothing like their attack.

I fell to the floor with a load thump. Looking around, all I could see was darkness. No escape, no nothing.

"Help somebody! Help me! Get off!" I tried fighting them off again but I was too weak. There were just too many men to fight back.

Cold hands ripped my hair. Feet smashed into my sides. Elbows dug into me like daggers. Every single man became to pile himself onto me.

Plunging harder and deeper causing me to wimp and cry in pain.

"Help me!" I struggled to find my own voice above all the laughs and cheers.

"Will someone shut the bitch up! She is ruining it for me!"

A thick leather belt was wrapped around my mouth and head.

No matter how loud I tried to scream, no noise came from my mouth.

Harder and harder. Deeper and deeper. Rougher and rougher.

It just never stopped. It wouldn't stop.

A feeling a cold liquid drip down my thighs and legs. Blood. Sobbing, feeling nothing but pain.

Leaving me on the street thinking I was dead. Believe me, I wanted to be. Praying to myself that no one would see me like this. I closed my eyes slowly, praying for death to come quickly.

End flashback.

I was on fire! Fires of hell. Every inch of my body burned. My suffering wasn't over? I arched my back screaming.

My throat was dry and saw. I began to heat up to incredible temperatures. Almost as if being put into an oven and experiencing every possible temperature the oven could reach, gradually being hotter and hotter. Becoming a burnt meal.

It was over. The heat turned to ice. Everything went cold. I breathed in deeply. Senses were so clear.

"Rosalie can you hear us?" voices filled my head. I wasn't dead at all. In fact very much alive.

"Carlisle she can hear." Carlisle? What? Where was I? In hospital or something? Did someone find me?

I fluttered my opens. At first my vision was blurry and fuzzed. But as I my eyes opened wider, adjusting to my surroundings I could see everything so clearly.

I sat up slowly observing all around me.

"Hello, your name is Rosalie hale. I am Carlisle Cullen and this is my family."

He pointed around the room. To all these different faces I had never seen before.

I scanned the room slowly. Everyone smiled up at me. They seemed like nice people. But I didn't have time to get to know them. I had to get back to my own family, showing them I was okay.

"You can't go back. They all think your dead. If you go you will only expose what you are." the young man standing by the window turned around to face me.

"Let me introduce myself, I am Edward. Carlisle's oldest son. I can read your mind."

This was not happening! I was being held prisoner with a complete load of strangers claiming to be able read my mind.

"What am I? I don't understand. What are you?"

I was extremely confused on the situation.

"Vampires" the blonde man spoke, Carlisle was his name again?

"No. Just no. They don't exist. It's a myth, it's not true. I can't be a vampire! I'm not. Okay I'm not. No... There not real."

"We're very much real Rosalie. Look at yourself in the mirror. Look." Carlisle handed me a small mirror.

Scared of my own reflection. I stared down to see bright red eyes. What had happened to my beautiful violet eyes? Replaced with eyes of a beast.

My skin was pale white and ice cold. Not to mention it was hard as stone. My dirty blonde hair had been replaced with a lighter shade of blonde.

"Vampire" I whispered. I Rosalie hale was a vampire.

"You saved me? But how?" I had to many questions I had to ask with so many answers I was awaiting to hear.

"Approximately 56 hours ago do you remember what happened to you?" Carlisle asked me.

"yes very much so..." I drifted off not wanting to remember that night of Royce and his friends.

"me and my other son Emmett were hunting when we smelt your blood and heard your cry's. We raced over to help you. You had already lost 85% of your blood. The only way to save you was to turn you into a vampire like us."

"well erm thank you. Thank you for saving me and giving me a second chance."

"It is our pleasure, we would love for you to join our family and stick around for a while. You have got forever to live now."

"Forever? What are the consequences of that?" I asked.

"Unfortunately many. Rosalie you are a vegetarian. You will not become a monster and kill people. We will help you over come your thirst for blood. Instead you will hunt and eat animal blood." I nodded. I didn't want to be a monster, and these people really seemed to care about me.

"As vampires, males do not produce sperm and women do not produce eggs. This meaning no vampire is able to have children of their own." my heart sunk.

No children. One of my only dreams I had taken away from me, just like that. I wouldn't be able to hold a beautiful little baby in my arms. Rock back and forth soothing the baby to sleep. Have a family of my own, have the family I always wanted to have. I wasn't being selfish was I?

"You won't ever be able to eat human food again. If you do so, you will make yourself extremely sick."

No chocolate, no pizza, no crisps, no more food.

"Like humans, us vampires have government, ours is the volutri. They have rules that must be obeyed or you will be killed. The main rule of a vampire is no human must know we exist. To them we are humans as well. You will never age. Rosalie you will look like this forever. Apart from your red eyes. They will turn golden over a period of time. I will explain more as you start to come across situations.

Emmett please take Rosalie hunting."

An extremely large man jumped down from the sofa. He had short curly brown hair. His body was built like a wall, nothing but muscle strength and power.

"Let's get going. Carlisle we shouldn't be too long." I followed behind him and out of the front door.

"Hay Rosalie. Take a really deep breath, what can you smell?" I did as he told me.

So many wonderful smells raced into my nose.

"Everything." I replied.

He laughed at me. "Come on, we're going up mountain. It's got bears, deer, lions, you name it!"

"But look, it's so far. We won't get there before dark."

"Are you kidding? You're a vampire Rosalie! You can run faster than lightening." he laughed.

I could?

He started running and I followed. I was so fast! It took less than 10 seconds before we reached the top of the mountain.

"Wow. It's so beautiful up here." I gasped. "Wait this isn't Rochester!"

"No it's not. You're in forks. This is where it's best for you to live. See in sunlight vampire's sparkle. If you sparkled in public, people would know you were different, you would than be all over the news and the volutri would come and kill you."

I was speechless. So far, everything seemed just so rubbish about being a vampire.

"Look deer." Emmett pointed behind me. I turned around to see many deers casually strolling by.

"That's your meal. Go get it!"

"I can't kill a deer! No, I won't. They're just so cute."

"Come on rose don't be stupid. You need to get one before it gets away. If you don't, your eyes will become black because your hungry."

"Fine." I ran at the deer catching one. I sunk my teeth into the deers neck. I can't lie, it tasted pretty good.

"High five! Caught your first meal! That's what I am talking about!" emmett came over. Putting his hand up.

"can we go back now? Or do you need something else to eat?"

"Oh, nah I am fine. Really."

I followed him back to house. The rest of the family was sat watching TV in the living room.

I followed in.

"Police have stopped investigating the death of the young girl Rosalie Lillian hale as a former witness came forward.

What was thought to be her boyfriend Royce king, explained to the police that she was kidnapped and sadly stabbed to death on the street of calp.

Her funeral won't be held for another few weeks and her parents are refusing to talk to press about their situation and loss of their beloved daughter."

Carlisle turned the TV off.

"Hay, I can show you your room!" emmett said to me.

"Okay sure." I smiled. I followed him up the stairs at walking pace.

"This is huge!" I stated. Never before had I been in such a big house. "It's so open and light. Not forgetting how modern it is designed to be". I couldn't help but stare and gawk at my new surroundings. The house was just beautiful.

"So this is my room, and yours is right opposite." Emmett pointed toward my bedroom door.

"Alice and Esme decorated it for you. Go take a look" I slowly walked towards the door. Turning the golden handle very slowly. The door creaked opened and I gasped.

"Oh it's so beautiful in here." I strolled in. I had my own bathroom. Make up stand. A huge walk in wardrobe. A massive TV on my wall, and a giant sofa.

"No bed?" I asked Emmett as he came up behind me.

"Carlisle didn't tell you? We don't sleep."

"Like ever?"

"No not at all." he smiled. I smiled I wanted to get to know.
