Chapter 1: The Hunter of the Queen

I have been searching since that bastard Aro turned me into a vampire. That has been my only mission in life. I was to hunt the one that would be called the Queen of the Stars. He picked me because he knew I could do it. I was a champion hunter in my time, my prey wasn't people, but I loved the feel of the kill. The sight of blood made me giddy because I knew I was the one that inflicted the pain.

She was a beauty that was for sure. I should have known when I saw her the first time in the yard of that strange coven of vampires. She was different. She smelt different too. Unlike anything I had ever encountered since my change. The actions of that vampire too, confused me. Never had I seen a vampire actually protect a human. Not just a human, but the Queen. He is a fool. Why would you protect the one thing that will end up being our undoing?

"James…"

The seductive voice of Victoria. She is nothing more to me than a sex kitten. I need no one. She came from behind me and wrapped her arms around me. I shifted some to keep watching my prey. Her hands began to travel up and down my body, and she was doing a great job at distracting me from my mission.

"Victoria, stop it."

"James?"

"I have work to do."

She released me and she come to stand in front of me. Her fiery hair and eyes burned into me.

"James, I know you hate to lose but this is crazy. That coven almost killed you in St. Louis. Do you want to get yourself killed?"

Death didn't bother me. The thought of death and a slumber would be a welcome thing. I would be in some peace. I may be a monster when it comes to killing, but after a time, a monster such as me would like to be at peace for myself.

I am still hunted by the Volturi. I will always be running from them, at least until my mission is complete and Aro has the head of the Queen. Then I will be free of them or maybe not. Maybe they will just pick another prey for me and send me out again. They will never be rid of me, they will need me to keep doing whatever they want me to do forever.

I felt the growl escape my chest and Victoria looked back at me with concern. The woman loved me that much I know, but I could never love her. I lost the only thing I could have loved. The Volturi killed her. They wanted me to be a cold-hearted bastard. They turned me into a killing machine and what better way than to destroy all the love in their heart. Now I will never find love again.

Then the prey moved from her house. Her chocolate hair and heart-shaped face reminds me much of the woman that loved me. Melody. Her movements, everything. She was the most evil form of torture to me and the sight of her with that vampire didn't help me. He always was so close to her, showing her so much love and affection. He was unworthy of her grace and beauty. I knew she was to die, but the thought of someone as low and vile touching the skin of that graceful woman was unthinkable.

I watched her crawl up in the porch swing with the vampire. Edward Cullen. He didn't even flinch when she lays her head upon his shoulder. There must be something wrong with him. The fragrance of her is unlike anything ever, and I knew it had to have the same affects on him as it does on me.

"What is the plan?"

I turned to stare back into the eyes of the fiery vixen behind me. She could sense my thoughts. She didn't have the gift like some of my kind, but she had been with me long enough to start to feel how I was feeling. Her eyes burned like hot embers, wanting the kill as much as I wanted it.

"We have to get that vampire coven away from her. Take them away, and she will be defenseless. Then she will be mine."

Her vicious and malicious laughter rang around me. I knew it was the perfect plan, but how was I going to get that vampire away from her. That was going to be the challenging part of the plan. The Cullen family would have to be gone for me to succeed. Then I would send word to the one called Edward and tell him his beautiful girlfriend is dead. The thought of killing her made me smile too. I would do unthinkable things to her. I might even have a chance to see how delicate her touch is before I rip her apart and drain her of all her blood. The woman was as innocent as snow that much I was sure of and I would love to take that innocence before I kill her. I will be the only one to touch her. I would have to tell that boyfriend of hers that she was as soft and tender as anything.

The plan is perfect. I will get to kill the Queen, and then I will get my rematch with Cullen. I will get to kill them all. I will have my revenge for Laurent as well. He might have just been my minion but he was a damn good minion.

I then thought back to the moment in St. Louis.

Cullen threw me out of the side window and that left the Laurent, the vampire woman, and the Queen in the room. The fight continued on the side lawn. I was getting the better of Cullen too. I threw him farther away from the house, I lunged at him again and that was when the house exploded. I heard the scream of the girl, thinking that Laurent had succeeded in killing her, but he didn't. The house exploded and burst into flames.

I knew that fire would do a vampire in so I knew it was a lost cause. When Cullen started to scream for the woman, I knew it would be better to leave and fight another day. So I went back to Forks. Victoria was there waiting for me. "I will come up with a better plan," I thought. I have done it too. My plan would bring the end of the Queen and the Cullens as well. They might be of my kind, but it was just as fun killing vampires as it was draining the life out of humans.

Turning my attention back to the house that contained the Queen, I saw the vampire place a kiss on her tender lips. I felt a growl in my chest, but I kept it quiet. That bastard.

I could watch no more. Turning around I headed back deeper into the woods.

"James? What are you doing? I thought we were going to watch the woman."

"Not now. I will have to keep close watch over her for a while though. I have to find her weakness so that I can get the Cullens out of our way before we proceed. After we kill the girl, we will go after the Cullens. They will pay for getting in my way."

I set off into a run then. I wanted to get away from her fragrance, the sight of him kissing her. It was too much for me. I needed time to think. I had to get a plan together to eliminate them all.

Hearing Victoria behind me I sped up trying to get some distance between us, for my fantasies were not of her anymore. They were filled with a chocolate haired girl of pure innocence. I was going to have my fantasies fulfilled too. For a moment, before I extinguish her life, she was going to be mine.
