Since Shadow 2446 was gracious enough to be the first one to review my story, I dedicate this to them. :D If you review more I'll update more, and maybe even make them longer chapters. Oh btw, none of this is mine, including all the chapters in this story. They belong to Stephanie Meyer, all except Rihan and Ryan, and the rest of the OC you don't know.

Oh btw, I think this is going to be a slow romance, because Alec doesn't seem like the type to fall in love right away. Or, that's how I'm going to make him. Please tell me if I'm making them all seem very realistic.

My eyes peaked open eventually, to find everything a lot different than before. And I mean every single thing. How I feel, look, see, smell and all that jazz. My senses seemed a bit strong, and when I took a breath of air, I tasted things. That's how weird it was. I mean how can you taste things when you breathe in? Is it just me?

Demetri walked in and his jaw slackened, then he regained him self and smirked at me. "You're officially a vampire." Everything screeched to a jarring halt, vampire? Me?

"Um, no sé?" I spoke, then giggled. I'm truly a retard. Or at lest that's what he thought, the guy reads like a book. Do all vampires not know how to control their emotions, or does keeping them in check get annoying after a decade or so? Ugh, don't overstrain you're brain Rihan, I told myself. He looked at me funny, and then started laughing. Delayed reaction much?

"Look at yourself." He held up a mirror in front of me, and I gasped. That is not normally what I look like. My long, split-ended, and static hair was no more. It seemed as if I just got out of a beauty salon. Not only my hair, but my eyes and my skin are totally different from before. Almost bleach white skin and teal green eyes. Aren't all vampires supposed to have red eyes? What the fuck? Speaking of eyes, Why are Demetri's black? This demands an explanation.

"Why are your eyes black and mine teal?"

"Well…," he started off like he knew it, "I don't know." I sighed, asking him questions isn't helping me at all.

"So I thought you guys were trying to kill me, not turn me. And why did you gawk at me like I have two heads when you saw me?" My eyes narrowed at him, did they change their minds on purpose? A thought came to my mind, what if they didn't mean for me to turn… It was probably because a gift of mine I've had for a very long time as to why I survived. That might mean that they would want me now, I'm not sure if I really want to stay in a place where they were going to kill me, and almost did.

"We didn't expect you to have any power," Demetri frowned a bit, "but something went odd, your blood didn't run out,d I drank until I was full. So you didn't die, not technically anyway, and the venom started changing you already. Then Aro said it was alright to let you change now, even though if he'd know beforehand you'd have a few years until being changed. After you had passed out my eyes turned black. And I wasn't gawking at you. I was just…surprised. That's all." The years were obviously not good on his lying skills either. But I admit they were better than mine, it's only cause he had more time to practice. I sighed internally, I really am bad at convincing myself.

"Surprised, eh? By my beauty no doubt." I grinned, but he just snorted at me. "AHHHH! Your so blushing! I knew it! You have a crush on muah!" Pausing, I thought about that for a minute. "Wait, wouldn't that make you a pedophile? Cause I'm fourteen and you're like 24?"

"I am definitely not 24, a solid 23 if you ask me." Demetri sniffed at me. Jeez, this guy doesn't take things well does he? He chuckled at the face I made.

"Well, that just reminded me how I'm going to be stuck in a fourteen year old body for the rest of my blood life. Marvelous. Isn't it?"

"It can't be that bad. I'm sure you can have more fun that way." Since he seriously thought that I didn't laugh at him. There's never been anything I could do at fourteen, can't drive, drink, nothing! "Whatever, I'll just have to deal." It went quiet for a while. Finally he said something. The uncomfortable silence was like someone dragging their nails against a chalkboard.

"At least vampires are gorgeous, you don't ever have to worry about being pretty. Girls your age are into that kind of stuff, right?"

Growling at him, "do I really look like one of those prissy, stick up the ass, bitches that you see? Way to make my self-esteem drop a few notches." Men these days knew nothing about women. Maybe if they cared to hear, then they would be able to listen. Which then they would comprehend the information we say a lot better. Nope, they just complain when they say they never know what we want but then say they do listen. What a bunch of bull.

"Uh, well… I don't know." Demetri started hesitantly. This was definitely not his area of expertise. I guess even vampires don't learn everything that quick. The air became thick with a tense vibe. Neither one of us could think of what to say, what to make the formalness disappear. A guy like him from decades ago doesn't just get used to all the new things out there in the world as quickly as we think. I believe that even vampires can't do everything right, and if every human tried to be their full potential we would all be extraordinary. Vampires are just an embodiment of full human potential. That's why they drink human blood, so they can take the potential from the human and use it as their own, but more resourceful than a mortal ever could.

Maybe I should test out this new form, so I got up and zoomed across the room faster than my brain could handle. My mind lagged behind trying to catch up. Demetri laughed when I tried to stop breathing, but thought I was going to die so I took a huge breath. Once again I tasted the air, it was bitter but I could taste something metallic…almost like blood. "Aro had Heidi go out to find another tour group so you don't have to be hungry for long."

"Welll, I'm not really hungry. Should I be?" The door creaked open, Felix popped his head in then smiled when he saw us.

"It's good to see that you're awake. Heidi just got back with our latest meal." He turned to me, "Aro sent me to fetch you. If I understood him correctly then you are to be there immediately." My eyebrow raised. If he understood him correctly, what's up with that? Demetri had a knowing smile on.

"He's not that fast on the uptake, unless it has to do with new fighting styles." Felix pulled his lip back in a fake growl.

"I would have another bout with you, but alas I have to bring Rihan to Aro." He put his hand on my shoulder grinning a toothy smile, "Let's go." The man really was a giant, or at least was related to one. "Just follow me little lady. And try to keep up." With that he was off, me growling after him. I particularly hate when people call me short, little, anything along those lines. That's why I pushed myself, and laughed at Felix's face when I passed him with a whoosh of air.

I stuck my tongue out at him when we went through the doors, and jumped around doing a victory dance, "yeahhhh, I totally won. New Vamp kicked your but! Haha!" We chuckled together, and when somebody cleared their throat I turned to face a bunch of amused faces. Was it always this depressing, or did they just not have lives? Oh, yeah, they don't have any lives anyways. So I guess that explains that…

Aro cleared his throat again doing it more noisily than before, "did you hear anything I just said?" My blank stare told him everything, because he giggled and started again. "We saved you one of the best smelling human for you since you are-," he leaned closer to me. Obviously looking at my weird colored eyes. "Let me see your hand again madam." His hand was very cold, but so was mine so I guess I shouldn't complain. Aro laughed at my thoughts, the devious and thoughtful ones. It irked me that someone could just do this, or would even want to invade someone's privacy. Once he was satisfied he opened his eyes and giggled like a little school girl. "My my, this is a surprise, I believe I know what your gift is. But it is odd that you're not hungry." He paused for a dramatic affect and I rolled my eyes.

"Ugh, just guess already." I rubbed my temples, aggravated. There's nothing more that I hate than someone stalling. Although I do that, I know I'm a hypocrite. Everyone really is, so don't get all pissy. Even if you don't mean to be one, you still are. Like how guys like getting hand jobs but they don't want to give one (unless their gay… I really don't have anything to say to that). And for girls it's the same.

"That's no way to talk to your masters!" Snapped the blonde guy, one of the ones seated on those thrones behind Aro. What an asshole. He thinks he's my master? Oh I'll teach him a thing or two.

"My MASTERS?" I shrieked, there was no point in denying that I'm mad. "What the fuck? Who do you think you are telling me who owns me! I don't even want to be here you fuckhead! Do you think I want to be a freaking blood sucking monster? All I ever wanted in life was to be there for my twin and maybe, just maybe, make all my mistakes disappear! But no you mother fucking bitches wouldn't let me go, and now I'm supposed to be one of you? Screw you, you PIECE OF SHIT! I don't care how tough you think you are sitting in that damn throne of yours, you look like a damn sissy with that long, princess hair! Argh!" I charged at him, and he even flinched back before Felix dragged me back a bit. Fuck that guy, he has no respect at all for anything other than himself.

"I should-," I cut him off before he started anything else and to piss him off. My emotions switched from angry, to calm in under half a minute, I smiled at Aro.

"So Aro, you were saying?" The blond was muttering profanities but I ignored him, even though he was in the throne he was definitely whipped by Aro. I could tell that he wants to kill me, but if he did Aro would get upset that he killed a new member of the guard. That's if I even wanted to be one.

Apparently Aro liked what I did, almost as if he was grateful, because he smiled at me. "Yes, I believe you can things in your and others bodies." Hm, not a bad guess actually. I bet if he could read all of my mind, then he would be able to understand my actual gift.

"Ah, that would be a cool gift. Although it's not mine." He frowned, his eyebrows scrunched together. The guy sure is having a brainstorm up there, bet he can't guess right, "Care to take another try?" My smirk was hard to hide, even if I resent my power I still think it's awesome. Now that's gotten me thinking about the past yet again. Lovely, I really hate memories sometimes. They really catch me at bad times.

My thoughts were forgotten when he said, "I do not know of anything else that would work. Please do tell," Aro definitely was an eager beaver. That's for damn sure. I knew a guy like him once, his name was Charlie. If I remember correctly that was what got Charlie killed; being energetic, full of life, and a little bit too eager to do things to better himself. I needed to stop thinking about that, the streets are a lot different than here.

"Oh, um right my gift…," how am I supposed to make this easy to understand? I've never had to before, the only person that knows is probably worrying their ass off about me. And that would be my brother, Ryan got the worrying from our mom's side of the family. Most of my traits are from my dad, that's why Ryan and I don't share any characteristics with each other. "Hm. The easiest way to explain this would be to say that I can increase and decrease things. Any questions?" Aro grinned, then chuckled.

"Of course! That's a very interesting power. Is that why I cannot see all of your thoughts?" Huh, I didn't think the guy had it in him to figure that out by himself. But he's had plenty enough time to smarten up.

"Yes indeed, sir," might as well get on his good side and smile back. "But I can't decrease your power all the way, that's the downside of my gift. Also if I increase say… my sight, then one of my other senses decreases. That's why I only use it sparingly and in shorts bursts."

"That makes it understandable. Does it not Marcus?" he turned to the man with brown wavy hair. Marcus nodded then turned to look back at me, a little more interested. There is something about him that makes me feel like he knows my pain. Maybe that's weird, but I can't get it out of my head.

"Okay, so what's with my eyes?" that question had been bothering me every since I realized it. And hey, I might not get another chance to ask. They seem like they're a group that get busy quite a lot.

"I believe that it may have to do with your power when you were turned. Though I'm not completely sure, but I'm sure we'll figure it out!" Aro couldn't have been more happy at this point, outgoing people usually give me headaches. That's why I'm not really outgoing as much, I like being quiet once and a while. This guy has to be on permanent crack or coke, even meth to have such a giddy personality. "Jane bring in the human please." A girl my age (surprisingly) about my weight, with long blond hair walked out. She also had a heart-shaped face, I really thought that I was the only young vampire. Apparently I have to expand my thinking box, or be more observant. Yet we all can't do what we want to just by thinking about it.

Jane came back into the room with a man tied up with a rope and duct tape on his mouth, he struggled against her as much as he could, but to no avail. He must have to feel pathetic next to her, a girl keeping him in line with one hand and like 3% of her actual strength. "To test my hypothesis, feed on this human even though you aren't hungry. And we will see what happens." Once the human heard the word 'feed' he tried wiggling and screaming, trying to break away.

It hurt me to kill him, but it's a hard world out there. Only the fittest survive when shit hit's the fan. And one of those people are going to be me. That's why I took hold of the man and my teeth smashed into his throat. His neck cracked because of the pressure, after I lessened his bone strength. I didn't want to torture the poor man, and I was never one to play with my food. The blood tasted pretty damn good, but it wasn't amazing, it severely disappointed me when it didn't taste as good as I thought.

He dropped to the floor with a thump, his eyes were glassy, and he wasn't moving. "Rihan." Aro held out his hand for what feels like the fifth time today. So again, his hand took my hand and my thoughts. Finally it was done, I almost snarled at him. It was absolutely horrid when he reads almost everything. "Interesting, so you didn't like the taste that much, my dear?"

I shook my head and I heard that Jane girl murmur something to the man standing next to her. When I looked at him my other opinions and thoughts went away. It was like my sight went tunnel vision and I can only see him. The guy, who was obviously her twin, had dark chocolate brown hair that went into his eyes that he twitched his head to push it back. I didn't know why he did not cut it, although I think he looks gorgeous with it. Jane's twin was the most handsome man I'd ever seen in my life. Rihan! Okay, I really need to hear what Aro's saying. So I forced myself to look back at Aro. He wasn't even as half good looking as that boy.

"Your eyes are black so maybe that's the effect other peoples blood have on you, or vice versa. But I wonder why it affected Demetri in such a way that he couldn't stop until he was completely filled. And nothing explains why you don't have red eyes." Ugh, doesn't he ever stop scratching his chin? My right eye tweaked with annoyance, little things like that tend to bug me to no end. Hm, what if me having normal eyes signals something? Like how him scratching his chin signals that he's thinking?

"Wait, what if I'm like a hybrid, or I'm this way because my power increased during the change and decreased the red in my eyes as an after affect? Wow, that actually makes sense…" I smiled to myself, at this moment I feel very accomplished. Unlike what my brother usually called me, but that's because he's jealous of my brain skills. Hah, I can't even fool myself. I know that I'm not smart because smart people are never happy. They just always think technical, that's why my brother is so responsible and never has any fun. Well, at least around me he is. I guess that's because somebody needs to be, and I'm definitely not qualified for that.

Sighing, I thought more about my brother. I wish I could be like him, and care about how I do things, or how it affects others. But ever since…don't think about it, I closed my eyes in emotional pain. I really missed Ryan, he would know what to do. Oh, dear! What is he doing? All he remembers is that I went to the bathroom and never came back. Shit! "Um, sir?"

"Yes Rihan?" Aro responded curiously. He never really stopped smiling ever, did he?

"Well, I was wondering about what I'm supposed to do about my brother. He'll eventually figure it out that I'm here." Aro laughed at what I said, what's so funny?

"No one will be able to find you here." I sighed, he didn't know my brother like I do. Ryan will be able to find out for sure. Especially since where I was taken is so close.

"He will. Ryan, my brother…he can see things that happen or the truth of it… it's all very hard to explain you see." This perked his intrigue, so he nodded for me to go on. "Well, since my brother's known me for a long time whenever he goes to a new place he can see what goes on where ever we're at. Like for example, if he goes into the alley where I saw you guys, he'd just relive that image in his mind and know where you took me. Or if someone else saw and lived, but got away unlike me. Then he would find them and make them tell him the truth. And since he can see the truth in them, they only have to say one thing, lie or not, and he'll know. So I expect he'll be here shortly, because my change probably took a while-," I was cut off when a woman came into the doors. She had brown hair with a formal dress on, and she was definitely human. I could smell the shampoo she used, which I liked, since it was green apple. Plus her heartbeat practically thumped in my ear because it was so loud.

"Master Aro," she started off. Wait, was she like a human secretary or something working for them? What the hell? Hm, I guess they have to get someone to do their dirty work. "There's someone here demanding that he sees his sister."

I turned to face Aro with a smug expression. "I told you so." The whole room went quiet, with shock most definitely.

"Very well, see him in Fabien."
