I have spent all my life in an insane asylum. I have never seen the sun. My family put me here because I can see the future. I am Mary Alice Brandon and this is my story.

I was a little girl when I had my first vision. I do not see the solid future, but rather the possibility of what could happen and will most likely happen. I have been put in an insane asylum; my parents think I am crazy.

It was always dark, I never saw the sun. I was starting to go crazy. I hated myself for being crazy, for making my family hate me. I wish I could be normal, I don't need these visions. I need to get out of here and fit in with somebody. Little did I know that tonight would change everything.

I was doing what I always do every night. I sat in the corner of my cell and thought about life. That was when I heard a noise outside. My cell door opened. I ran for it as fast as I could. As soon as I got out of the building, it happened. I turned around and saw him. He was pale, and his eyes were red. I was scared for my life. He grabbed me, his hands were ice cold. He was getting awfully close to my neck. I didn't know what to do. All of the sudden, something hit him. I felt teeth sink into my neck. My body started to burn. I felt it all over. Then I blacked out, I saw black. I woke up days later, I didn't remember anything. If you haven't guessed it yet, I am now a vampire.

I saw a vision, it was amazing. It was of a gorgeous blonde boy, I was with him. We were in love and happy. He has had a hard past. I see us with others who are like us. They are not entirely like us, but they are who we want to be.

We travel and find them; I startled them by knowing their names already. We live with them and we never leave. My love still feels that he is a monster. He is the one who is trying the hardest to stick to our diet. I and he spend the rest of our days together, always in love.

I have found where I belong with people I love, and who love me back. They know who I truly am, and love me just the same. I am Alice Cullen, and thank you for reading my story.
