I just arrived in the small town of Forks, Washington, and so far nothing real special about the place except the fact I will never need to shower indoors again and people have no sense of shame or subtlety. I got out of my jeep to fill it at the the gas pump and had five people just stare at me before turing to the person next to them and gossiping like no tomorrow. I almost just stared back to see what they would do but I had things to accomplish and terrorizing the townsfolk wasn't till after dinner so I carried on and left.

I stopped by the local supermarket to grab some snacks before I had to meet my parents later. I knew they would 'eat' before they got to town and I was hungry. I got Hersheys, Good and Plenty, twizzlers, and to top it off a bottle of Jack for me and Dad. All the treasures of the universe right here.

I was walking back up the aisle when someone else walked right into me, spilling my stuff and hers onto the crack linoleum floor. As I bent down to retrieve my stuff, gladly Jacky had survived, a pair of pale hands joined me.

"I am so sorry! I wasn't paying attention where I was going and I am so sorry." Said the girl in a horrified voice. She had long dark brown hair with bits of red mixed in, I wouldn't have seen it with out my enhanced sight. Her face was heart shaped with a small nose, pink lips, and large doe brown eyes. I would have though her a vampire from how pale she was but that was ruined by the deep blush that was staining her face bright red a moment later. I could feel my throat burn at the sight and smell of strawberries, freesia, and lavender that surrounded the human child.

To cover up my momentary pause I stuck out my hand before introductions." No harm done. My name is Scarlet, yours?" As I leaned in a bit I realised there were several others scents mixed in with hers. Vampire's, six maybe seven of them all on her. What do they all want with this human girl I wonder? Vampires have been to keep human pets at times but never this many at once. Most, especially males, tend to be to possive to share meals unless with their mate. I didn't see any scars on her so that idea was out.

She reached out and shook my hand as my mind whirled with questions. "My name is Isabella Swan, but I prefer Bella."

"Well Bella, since you ran into me you can do me the curtasy of walking with me to the checkout." I needed to find out more information and Bella's head was best place to start.

"So is there a reason that you were off in Neverland instead of here?" I decided to start off small and work up.

"Sorry, I was just thinking about my boyfriend, Edward. He has been away camping and he and his family are coming back today. I just missed him."

"Isn't it a schoolweek though?"

"When ever the weather is nice their parents take all the Cullen kids out camping, you know family bonding"

"Why didn't you go with them then? Y'all sound really close and it would be great to get out of purgatory for a week."

"I love them like my own family, but I'm not much of a hiker so I stayed here."

Liar, or at least not telling the whole truth. Though I had only known Isabella for a few minutes I could already tell coronation was not her strongest talent so the not hiking part was true.

I could hear the edge to her voice and knew that something was up but I had got my next clue, the Cullens, so I let her be. I could tell she was getting nervous and I wanted her trust me. I switched the subject to Forks High which I would be attending starting Monday, musing on my findings as I left the store.


I really hate being stood up. It is just a pet peace like how I hate dolls and plain stupidity. One is insanely creepy and the other makes me want to rip the offender's arm off and slap them with it. Just something that gets to me, no big deal.

I went at a small clearing north of Forks to meet my parents over two hours ago. Just as I was starting to get worried my phone started playing Fastest Girl In Town by Miranda Lambert, who is by the way a horse shapshifter. You would be surprised by the number of famous people who are supernatural in someway or another.

Ain't no use in trying to slow me down

'Cause your running with the fastest girl in town.

Ain't you baby?

I like 'em crazy.

I listened to my mother's ring tone for a moment before picking up. I planned on having words with them unless they had a good reason for leaving me in the dust, not an emergency matting crisis like last time this happened.

"Hey honey, how are you?" I heard her voice come over the phone all sweet and loving. I was not falling for it.

"Mom" I let my tone speak for me.

"Sigh, I guess we deserve that but there is a good reason this time. And no, your father didn't have the sudden need to scent me. We did that after our hunt."

"Ew, I really didn't need that picture thanks." In the background I can hear Dad laughing before a loud BAM and him cusing reveals that Mom hit him over the head.

"We have a new coven member named Laurent with us. Until we know we can trust him we won't be coming to see you."

That's strange, we hadn't had a coven member besides ourselves for over a century. I wonder what is so special about this one that he convinced my parents to let him join.

"If you and Dad don't trust him, why let him join our coven? I know you both prefer your space from others for your ' activities.'"

" We originally we were not but then we got a text from your uncle Peter. Apparently his knower is telling him that Laurent has to be with us at least for awhile. Sorry about having to cancel like that but we'll hopefully see you in a couple weeks. Bye, sweetheart."

"Bye Mom. Bye Dad."

I hung up before turning to head back home. I will miss my folks but at least this gives time to start working on figuring out who and what the Cullens are and where Miss. Swan fits in

First chapter under belt, yahoo. I'm wondering if anyone can guess just who Scarlet's parent are. Also do you guys think that Edward should be good or evil, maybe both? Review and say what you think.

I don't own twilight but certain redhead is mine.
