Searching
Chapter 1: legends
There's a legend, whether it's true or not, it's hard to say, you know how these things go, stories being past down from generation to generation always changing. There's a house set back far in the woods where people rarely venture, It can't really be classed as a house it's more of a castle, with huge towers that have gargoyles looking down at the huge garden, the brick walls and the huge iron gates that surround it almost protectively. If you wonder into the woods and are lucky enough not to get lost and stumble upon manor Hayden, it was made after the man who made it, he was a snobby man who grew crippled with old age, he used to have grand balls and invite the whole village, but then as he grew older he started to distance himself, the legends say that he was some sort of scientist, that he was doing an experiment that went horribly wrong, , he grew terrifyingly ugly and his attitude grew monstrous, he had a wife and a daughter, when his daughter died at 17 his wife couldn't bare the sorrow and the constant reminders of René, so soon after her death she attached a noose to one of the great willow trees and hung herself, the legend goes that on a full moon if you listen hard enough you can hear her cry's hallowing in the wind, But she's still alive and the legends are true, they just have a bit of a twist to them, my name is Bella, René was my mother, how you ask when she died at such a young age, well she didn't die not really, in a sense she is dead, she's part of the undead, she's a vampire, and I'm a vampire, I know what you're thinking vampire's can't have children, well normal ones can't, we are what are called ageless inheritors, what are they you ask, inheritors are people who have the vampirism past down from generation to generation living up to 400, they can eat food but also require blood, there are some very rare cases where the inheritor comes from a family where neither parents were inheritors, that's what happened to my mother, and ageless vampire's are vampire's that were created or bitten if you like by other vampires, they never grow old from the moment they are bitten, they live for all eternity or till they are killed but the only things that are strong enough to do this are other vampire's and I've also heard rumours of werewolves that are not children of the moon being able to destroy them as well, anyway ageless vampire's require blood human or animal, and they cannot eat human food, the females of this race can't have children, so this all started when a inheritor and an ageless fell in love, and a new race was created called the ageless inheritors, we can live for all eternity, we can eat human food although it makes us sick because our digestive systems can't handle it as well as it can the blood, and we have the same abilities the agelessness have only were stronger and faster.
So now as I make my way to a small town called forks in search of my mother, hoping that the rumours that my father had heard were true, there were rumours floating around the vampire community, that a young women around the age of 17 has been spotted around the area, they say she lives in a small cottage alone far in the woods, attending the only high school within miles of the place, it has about 400 students, racing down the oh so quiet streets of forks to the house that me and my father owned, letting my ,mind wonder over the distant memories of when my father used to sit on my bed as I was drifting off into a light sleep telling my about my other, you could hear the adoration in his voice as he talked about her, her name was René Hayden, my father was Charlie swan, mine Bella swan, he often calls me bells saying my voice sounds like the chimes of church bells when I open my mouth and sing, I was now singing the song that I wrote which reminded me that I didn't have a mother
I'll
sing it one last time for you,
and we really have to go,
and

in your life time
and I can
barely look at you,
