Please review!!

Thank you readers and commenters!

Edward's POV

Everyone was surprised to hear that we would have a new addition to the family, well, Alice squealed with joy, "I'll finally have a shopping buddy!!!" Phoebe rolled her eyes and leaned in my ear to whisper, "More like a doll," I snickered and squeezed her hand. Our new sister was due here any minute, we all waited in the living room, but then 10 minutes past from eight, then 15, even 30 minutes...

"Maybe something came up?" Sophia's eye brows raised.

"Mayb--" Alice started, then her eyes glazed over, all of us exchanged glance, Alice was having another vision:

We're in the meadow, there is another vampire sitting in the center and...

She was beautiful.

Her long brunette hair fluffed in the wind, her face features perfect in every way, her eyes was gold like all of ours, but something was different, something about her was different, some thing inside, not visible from the outside. Her face, despite her looks, looked sad, like remembering something about her past that was depressing.

Yet, she was beautiful, even for a vampire, I could barely feel Phoebe tugging on my sleeve, asking if I was okay.

"Edward!" Alice said urgently, "Let's go!!" I turned to see my family getting up to go to her, Phoebe gives me an impatiently look and grabs my hand forcefully an tugs me to my feet.

Bella's POV

I couldn't make it.

I just couldn't, I didn't know why, I had managed to cross the border without breaking down and sobbing, but after I saw the "Welcome to Fork's" sign, I lost it. I managed to find an isolated area where I could cry my tearless sob. I had just finished, when I caught new scent, no, 10 new scents, it was the Cullens. Wait, didn't Tanya and the others say that there were 9 Cullens?

Before I could harvest any more thoughts they all emerged in the clearing, as a reflex, I crouched, ready to attack if necessary.

"Hello," said a blonde vampire, he was tall and despite my reaction,his expression was calm, from Irina's description, he must have been Carlisle, "You must Isabella."

"Bella," I said, then flinched as I looked away, surely my sudden correction wouldn't get me hit in the face, I took my chances and turned to look at him, his face wasn't anger, but understanding, I relaxed my crouch and straightened my clothes. "Welcome to Forks, I'm Carlisle," one point for me, I smiled timidly, not liking the attention and managed to produce a very soft, "Thank you."

A women with dark curly hair stepped up next to him, she had a silent movie era about her and had a warm smile, I blinked, this must have been Esme, "Welcome dear, please make yourself at home here," I nodded, her eyes became slightly worried, although her smile did not falter, "I'm Esme, Carlisle's mate."

I was right again, in my mind I breathed a sigh of relief that I had gotten through two introductions without being hit, unconsciously I spoke aloud, "The Denali clan spoke so highly of you, I feel as though I already know you already." That got quite a few surprised expressions, they exchanged glances then finally one spoke up, "Oh yeah? What did they say about me?" one called out, he was rather big and had arms like steel bands, I could automatically tell that this one was Emmett.

"That you would embarrass me within the five seconds I've been here," I mumbled looking at the ground, the next thing I knew I was being lifted up into a big bear hug, "That's right!! And you're my next victim." he growled playfully, I smiled and involuntarily let out a laugh, I could see everyone relax as they heard that I actually made a response.

He set me down and a beautiful blonde vampire stepped out, she was without a doubt the most gorgeous than all the vampires I had ever seen, remembering Kate's advice I smiled and said, "Ah, the most beautiful vampire I had ever seen, Kate wasn't kidding, hello Rosalie," she looked at me surprised for a split second then gave me a smile, and stepped up next to her husband, "Tell Kate thank you," she said.

I turned to might to find a pixie like vampire grinning at me, she had short cropped hair and had knowing eyes, "Hi Bella!! I'm Alice and we're going to have loads of fun together! Do you like shopping? Let's go together on Saturday, okay?" Before I could respond, I saw a hand rest on her shoulder and behind Alice was a tall lean, honey blond hair like Carlisle, he must have been Jasper, the empath, "Alice, let's start with 'Hi' first okay?" he looked at me sheepishly, I smiled back, but I liked Alice's mood-- it seemed natural, for her anyway.

"Thanks Alice," I said even though shopping didn't mean much to me, "I'd loved to go."

"Oh no," called a voice behind the couple, "Now she'll never leave you alone."

"Shut up Derek!! Don't scare her away now!!" Alice said still smiling, as she and Jasper stepped aside for me to see a tall, but not as tall as Jasper or Emmett, dirty blonde vampire who was smirking, in a way, he looked like a singer or an actor, well, at least more than the rest of them.

"Hey squirt, you're our new sis huh?" he said looking down at me, no doubt sizing me up.

"Derek be nice," said the vampire next to him, she had a sweet smile, long brown curly hair that framed her heart shape face beautifully, she must have been his mate, Sophia, "Hi Bella, I'm Sophia and this bully, is Derek, my mate."

They all became silent as I stepped back to meet the last Cullen and the new vampire, when I saw his face, my whole world stopped. Only one thought remained in my mind:

Wow Kate's wrong, Rosalie's not the most gorgeous vampire I had ever seen.

"Hello, I'm Edward," was all he said, he had a face that screamed mischief, yet easily more beautiful than Rosalie. His bronze hair moved in the wind, his golden god-like eyes bore into my face, he seem to be concentrating on something, he then said something that made me snap out of my spell, "I can't hear your thoughts." Despite the velvety voice, I froze, I had completely forgotten about Edward's powers, I suddenly was glad that he couldn't hear them.

"Y-your powers won't work with me," I stuttered, finally finding my ability to speak.

"May I ask why?" I heard Carlisle say, I reluctantly pried my eyes away from Edward to look at Carlisle, "It's my power, it neutralizes other vampire's powers," I explained I was about to add something, but I decided that I would tell them later, they weren't ready for that part yet.

"I'm Phoebe," said a voice, I suddenly remembered their was a tenth member, I turned to her, she was blonde, her hair was cut in layers, her lips full (see profile), but to me, somehow she wasn't as beautiful as the others, they had all striked me as breathtaking, however, Phoebe, just struck me as, well, inhumainly beautiful like other vampires, but was kind of plain.

"Hi Phoebe," I said smiling.

She returned the smile, but her smile didn't look real, like she was only putting on an act for the others, "I'm Edward's girlfriend." I hid my surprise as I said, "Oh, that's nice."

"Hmm," she said curtly, just as I thought, she didn't like me very much.

At that moment I remembered Tanya and the others, they had meant so much to me, and I had already got the feeling that I wasn't wanted here, so I finally had a reason to go back, I suddenly choked, that alarmed everyone, Esme especially "Are you alright?" she said as she took a step toward me, concerned.

"I'm fine," I cleared my throat, "I'm just going to hunt around a bit," I continued, even though I had hunted earlier, "You know, get to know the grounds a bit, okay?" I said taking a step back.

"Edward will come with you!" interjected Alice, still worried about me.

"No!" I shouted, they all looked at me, "I-I mean, I can find my way around, seriously, I already know the hunting ranges..."

They looked at me for second, then turned to Carlisle, who looked at me then sighed and said, "Alright, just make sure that you know what the hunting ranges are, be safe Bella," he made a signal, they all gave me a good-bye or a look and turned to run back to their home.

I also turned and ran the opposite direction.

I made sure I had a distance, so that they couldn't hear me, then flipped out the cell-phone and dialed the one number I needed...

Home.

Yay! Three day weekend, I'll take that time to get out another chapter AND start the sequel of Blood Angels, its working title is Arrivederci, but that could change so I'll type out the link in one of my future chapters.

Thanx readers!
