Chapter 1: Nomads
SPRINTING THROUGH THE FOREST,ALICE SUDDENLY GRABBED MY FOREARM-halting any movements I was to make. Worried,i spun around to face Alice, her eyes were the same familiar blank and glazed when she had visions. I quickly enveloped her on a hug,careful to carry her once the vision was to strong. Not far throughout the vision, Victoria hissed clearly annoyed at the sudden interruption of our traveling. I was to far distracted at Shutting Victoria up I didn't notice Alice crawling out of my grasp. " Another coven-not far ahead;; just a few miles, they're playing baseball-should we join? " Excitement bubbled over me,and Alice's calm facade quickly merged into anxiety. We hadn't played for quite a while, this is one opportunity I could not pass. All of our faces broke into grins, James quickly whispered something in Laurent's ear. Even with our enhanced hearing,he's voice was too quiet. Alice's grin quickly turned into a grim, Laurent quickly instructed her to explain the precise destination. Once it was discussed we quickly turned into a quick sprint, going 300 mph. While running I allowed myself to actually reminiscence to the last century, Alice my best friend, had always been their for me-this coven was useless to ours-and seeing as I had an verge to human blood, I shared my power with Alice. No one in our coven knew about this,nobody else knew. Alice standing at a 5'1-was a true beauty, Her features were petite,built to perfection,a grace no other dancer possessed, a charisma that would reel you in, and the big ball of positivity and joy that once she walked in a room, it would possibly glow. Though, Alice's past was a mystery-her perks refused to be affected by it. As for me, Isabella Marie Swan, born in 1901-i was a runaway. My mother had been one of the victims to the famous decease-The Spanish Influenza. My father though fought in the war,one night-he never came back. I was arranged to marry Mr. Black the son of a close family friend-once Mr. Black had been informed of my parents loss,he's father was determined for me to marry he's son as soon as possible. So I ran, I did not love him, nor did I ever desire to. I did not love him, and I doubt I ever will. Once I got out of town I ran, and due to my bad luck since I was mortal, I slipped-fell face plat on the alley ways. My head was sure gashed out into two, the sudden smell of blood made my legs weak, and buckle once I tried to stand up-though at that one point I managed to hang onto the wall, a blunt face came into view, then pain that no hell could ever top-then black. Now, here I am, standing on a 5'10. Long lean legs, that showed through my supposed to be jeans, clattered dragged with mud, a tank top that was sure to be white, now covered in red blood drops, and as for my hair-don't get me started the straight mahogany shoulder length was sure to be fulled with leafs. I had the perfect body, hour glassed shaped-flat toned stomach,curves in all the right place-a full bust, heart shaped face and a narrow nose,and smoldering yellow eyes. My eyes though differ from Alice's. Alice's eyes were a topaz color, but mine were sand tinted. Lighter and more noticeable,with a rim of hazel around them, they were piercing according to Alice. Though once I felt hostile my whole perfectly almond shaped rims turned pitch-black. Cold, and dangerous. I had the heart breaking beauty any foolish mortal would die for;; and I wasn't happy,i was a predator- a good one at that. In one flutter of my lids, once seductive smile and my feline grace...i could lure you in. Like a natural predator would do. My power though made it impossibly hard to travel without The Volturi on your back trying to get you into they're own little "station". Many,many times had I denied Aro's request, I wasn't to leave Alice's side,not even in a second. She was like my sister, we were nothing without each other. A sudden flash of thunder interrupted my thoughts, and caused my thoughts to form into a bizarre jumble. We were still sprinting, and Alice's eyes turned wary, suddenly nervous. "I'm hungry." Victoria's malice voice wafted to the spine chilled air;; "Let's hunt, that campers were not enough, Seattle's should be good place,many people. James?" James quickly obliged, a vicious smile plastered into his handsome face. He's eyes quickly darted to mine. James had always wanted to be my mate. But I always refused. James had always terrified me-he changed me,in the hopes of me being he's companion. But soon found Victoria, which was a good enough replacement for me. Alice and I Quickly nodded careful to take in blank expressions, and for sure- Laurent joined Victoria and James. "We meet back here in 40 minutes tops. Once any of you try and stray"-James eyes were still on me-"i will hunt you down, and you know I love a challenge." They quickly left, leaving only a dash of trail behind them. I was still staring at the exact same space where they had left."Bella." -Alice's voice bought me out of my thoughts,once again. "Yes Alice?" "Bella, did you remember about our talk? About finding our so called 'soul mates'?" I contemplated that for a moment, confusion flashed in my eyes,what could she possibly mean by that? "Alice,where are you you going with this?" Alice though, quickly diverted that question, "well,Bella look at it this way. Why would I just have a vision of some random vampires,out of nowhere? We might just have some kind of connection to them-in the future I mean, they appeared quite strong into my vision. It seems that...one or maybe even the two of us would get involve...think about that! And for god's sakes, that one guy, he had been in my visions for quite some time now, he would appear in my head and...i fell in love with him at first glance." Alice finished with a sad sigh. I couldn't stop my excitement. Alice would finally find the perfect mate to accompany her throughout the eternity we were damned to,though I secretly wished I could have that. Those heart-melting eyes that seems to connect with yours, that no need for words, the person that would hold on tight to you, save you from yourself, someone who cared, that certain someone that could give you goosebumps in one simple look...Love. I've seen it, lots of times, and even read about it, even watched it. They were all-over,but once that idea came across me, I was sure I would never find it. I was damned, or maybe my soul mate was already dead, that my soul mate was finally released and gone to heaven, and I was left in the world, to ponder through everything, wait- what am I thinking? No one would love me. Lust was possible, but love? I was unsure. I always told myself that, "Bella,you don't need anyone else to stand by you! Your strong. You can carry on without that certain someone in your life! Your better off alone!" And until now, that golden plague was planted in my head. "i..d-don't know Alice. Mayb-bbe." I stuttered it out, afraid of the dry sobbing that would sure break free. Alice though knew me all too well and enveloped me in a hug. Alice's voice came out strangled full with sorrow-"Bella, you'll find him-I'm sure of it." she winked at me,her personality back intact. Our conversation's were quickly sidetracked as James, Victoria and Laurent were back. "Let's go." We quickly stood up and broke out into a run once again, just then the sound of thunder and boulder's crashing was heard, and I was sure we were close to our destination. James quickly retracted back allowing Laurent to lead then swiftly took place next to me,in a stance only protecting there mates- I resisted the urge to push him away, and yet the temptation was still strong. I quickly forced my concentration back-once the clearing came into my view, a sudden flash of bronze hair came free, and stopped abruptly. From my view he's shoulder's quickly stiffened, he then turned around, seeming to be alert on our presence, I was also examining the rest of the field, and in one blinding reflex, as if it was a reflex, I quickly averted my eyes from the others and focused on the bronze haired vampire. I stifled a gasp, and from our distance he did too. And in that exact same moment, the worries of ever going through eternity was gone, the anxiety, the fear of losing my true love, or anything else that managed to cross my paths were out the window. All that remained was him. In that exact same moment of our first sight, time seemed to stop.
