I don't own Twilight, but i own Maya.
Ch 1
I knew I had to think I was going to Canada. That was the only way I could have the tiniest bit of surprise. Canada. Not Forks. Canada. I thought hard. I could already hear them all. My hearing was ten times better than any other vampires. They were playing baseball. With each new voice I heard, there thoughts, memories, and feelings flooded my mind.
From what there minds told me, there were six vampires and a hybrid in the field. I matched each name with a face from the vampire's minds, and searched there thoughts to try to figure out what they might think of me. Carlisle and Esme. From there thoughts and personalities, I knew they would be afraid of me, but curious. Rosalie would hate me, and my stunning beauty. Emmett would be mad I could wrestle him to the ground in a second. Jasper would want to attack, and Alice would be overjoyed that there was someone shorter than her. Edward and Bella would be afraid I would hurt there "Nessie". I picked up speed, running at a speed no vampire could ever dream of running, until I reached the edge of the clearing. I knew they would here me now, and that Alice could see me.
I heard Alice gasp and whisper, "No, no! How could I not see her!". Edward immediately turned towards where I was and told Bella to go and scoop up Nessie. Alice told them all I was coming, and they lined up, waiting for me to enter. I grabbed a comb from my dress pocket, and ran them through my glistening black curls. My eyes were soft caramel, and my dress was new. I looked harmless enough. I stepped out into the clearing.
"Hello Carlisle, Esme, Rose, Emmett, Jasper, Alice, Bella, Edward, and Nessie!" I called in a high, happy voice that sounded like bells. I watched there faces all turn to shock, and all there thought read the same thing. Mind reader.
"Yes, I can read your thoughts. All except Bella's, of course, but that's typical. I'm not evil though. It's quite hard to be evil and four feet five inches." I giggled, while all the men crouched lower into an automatic defense pose. "No need to be afraid. I'd love to explain everything! If Edward can't already hear, my name is Maya. Yes, I'm a vampire. No, you're not delusional Jasper. My eyes are caramel. I took down a grizzly near Seattle." I smiled again.
Carlisle was the first to regain composure. "Hello Maya. I see you already know our names. We are the Cullen's. May I ask is your power mind reading?" he asked curiously.
"It's one of my powers." I said with a smile. All the faces were shocked again.
"You have more than one?" he asked, stunned.
"Yes, actually. Lemme count…" I said, using my fingers. "One, two, three… around six, if you actually count some as powers." I giggled.
"SIX!" Edward said, breaking his stone face.
"Isn't that what I said, dearest Eddie?" I said innocently. Bella snarled, and I decided to use one of my powers. I was over at her side before anyone could even notice I was gone from my original place near Carlisle. "I wouldn't snarl at me if I were you, Isabella Marie Swan Cullen." I hissed.
Edward, still stunned at my speed but angered, lunged at me. Time for power numero tres. I stuck my hands out in front for me, and when they touched Edwards's body, I launched him back with such force he flew into a tree almost 50 yards away. Everyone was too stunned to fight me off.
"So do you want to hear my story or not?" I asked annoyed. Everyone was tense and hissing, but now had the common sense not to attack me. They all knew I was strong.
"Yes, we do Maya; let's go back to our house." Carlise said, quickly ushering me toward there home.
"Actually, if you aren't offended, I'd rather explain here. Enclosed spaces make me nervous. Too many bad memories." I said with a small smile. "Oh, yes, Rosalie." I said turning to face her. "I am 12 and 1/2. Well, at least physically. I am a "little kid" if you want to get technical." I laughed.
"Twelve!" Rosalie gasped. "You were bitten when you were 12!"
"Actually, twelve and a half thank you very much." I said, annoyed.
"What sick vampire would bite a 12 year old?" Emmett said, breaking his silence.
"The one I killed like a hundred years ago." I said obviously. "Can I tell my story please? We can have question time after." I heard all there thoughts again. She's 100!
"Sure, sweetheart." Said Esme.
"Thank you Emse. Well, I was born May Annemarie Jeffers in Alvarado, Texas, in 1889. I had an older sister named Elizabeth Hester and an older brother named James Laurent." I said, while Edward hissed. "Silly Edward, not the same one you fought. I lived a good life, and my father was a wealthy banker. My sister was beautiful, even more so than I, and Laurent had girls swooning over him every day. I had everything I could ever want. One day in 1901 I went over to my best friend Agatha's house. We were walking down to the General Store, when Agatha's father came bursting out of the bank. He had a received a letter that told him of his mother's death, and the whole family had to leave at once for the funeral in Hope's Crest, around 50 miles away. Mr. Harper said he was sorry that they had to leave, and he would walk me home if he could, but they must leave now to make it to Hope's Crest in two days. I decided I would wait at the park across the street for my father to come home from the bank, and walk back with him, since it was such a far walk. I went back to a wooden bench almost hidden by bushes and trees, because it was the only shaded bench. I didn't realize it, but the second I laid my head on the bench to rest, I fell asleep, and no one could see me. When I woke, it was dark outside. I was afraid, since my family didn't know I was gone, because they thought I was at Agatha's. I looked around, and saw a pair of neon red eyes staring at me in the dark. I tried to scream, but the vampire covered my mouth. He sunk his teeth into my neck…" I stopped for a gulp of air. Everyone had horrified looks on their faces. "and took a gulp of my blood. I couldn't scream. It was horrible. I felt the venom hit my stream, and was in pain. Then, of all wonders, he pulled away and shrieked. I remember his exact words. 'You taste horrible!' as he retched over and gagged on my blood. He ran away, gagging, and I felt the venom spreading. I wanted to end my pain, so I slammed my head down on the metal on the bench. I felt myself pass out as I rolled under the bushes. I woke up days later. I felt my new skin, and saw my reflection in a dropped pocket mirror. I was beautiful. And thirsty. I immediately knew what I was. I took off running, it was still night, and went out near my home. There was a human boy working the fields near my house. I pounced on him, my thirst uncontainable. Then, my fourth power kicked in. I…" said, taking another deep breath, looking at everyone's shocked faces.
