I went shopping next, buying clothes, a new laptop, a new car and an up to date cellphone. The current style seemed to have changed quite a bit, that or i was just used to being around people more like myself. We didn't do a whole lot of shopping, we had other things to do.

It didn't take long to find out where Charlie lived. Some crap town in the middle of nowhere. Rain seemed to be a daily thing too. How morbid, i thought, scanning the pictures of a tourism website. Charlie was cheif of police, he stood in front of the precint, his deputy and everyone else surrounding him. He looked average, normal. I already didn't like thim.

I then looked up any birth records i could related to him, find out how much truth came from that phone call. Kade and i were twins, everyone who knew me, knew Kade, and vice versa. Though i got the feeling Kade didn't exactly advertise that, he must've been happy to see me go considering he put a bullet in my chest.

Charlie was our biological father. My mother had never written a name for my father on the birth certificate for either of us, mainly because we were born out of her infidelity. Only i had known about this, and it was true Kade had died several years before i had, so i never had the opportunity to tell him. At least i'd thought he had been dead, why is that whenever someone dies, they dont seem to stay dead?

I paused, thinking back to seeing my brother stroll into our warehouse. Though he had the same sinister demonic eyes, he inhabited his own body. That in itself raised a few questions. Was my brother possessed or had he somehow managed to become a demon? And why the hell did he have pale blue eyes. Like any other demon, the taint was the entirety of his eyes, but where did the blue come from.

Which made me wonder if he had ever learnt about our sister. You could a learn quite a bit in hell. They taunt you and torture you with it. Every secret you've ever had is turned against you. When Kade had appeared at a place only my friends and i had known about, he threw everything he had at me to hurt me. Or at least piss me off, killing my family did that in itself.

You'd learn things, dark things, things only demons knew. Every year you spend there, the more you learn, the more you stop being good. You become skilled in the art of deception and torture. You become cruel, so twisted that even hurting your loved ones is enjoyable. Which is exactly how my brother had come back. That thought brought up another question, how had he gotten out of hell? How in the hell had i?

Charlie lived in Washington, which would only be a few hours by plane. I wasn't sure if i wanted to take a plane, but i figrued it was safest that way rather then on the road. I would have to stop multiple times and i couldn't risk anyone knowing where i was going until i got there first.

Once i wrote down Charlie's address i looked up the school records and cross refrenced that with his name and anyone born after me. Isabella Swan, daughter of Renee and Charlie Swan. Renee lived in phoenix and has since she and Isabella moved there after being born. Charlie remained in Forks. Isabella had moved in with Charlie a few years ago, when Renee and Phil got remarried. He was a minor league baseball player. Charlie never remarried, which didn't surprise me, he probably kept focus on his career once Renee had left with the baby.

I had to charm the car, seeing as it went through customs security and everything was searched. I got a first class ticket and continued looking up the recent news. I felt so behind, i had been dead four years and six months. I should've been twenty two by now. Yet i was stuck in the body of a sixteen year old, not exactly an upside if im about to go to war with the big bad.

Hell's time flows differently. A month is ten years down there. Your tortured and even if you die, your brought back instantly. Like magic. It was called hell for a reason, after all. The flight was painfully boring and i spent most of it drinking and listening to music.

When we landed it was going on two in the afternoon. I hadn't been entirely sure what my plan was. I didn't really have one, i hadn't thought it through. Surely she would know i had died as well. What would i tell her? Did i even want to deal with Charlie right now? They would both have questions i wasn't sure i could answer. Then again no one had found my body, well somebody had. I wonder who buried me. Wow, i really hadn't thought this through very well.

I decided to go anyways. At least to check out the house and the town. See what kind of life she had. I wondered how badly she'd take it if i came crashing down into it, she'd lose everything. You can't afford trivial and unprotectable things like human relationships when your part of a war. It never ends well.

They had a relatively small house, my guess was three bedrooms. It was quite old too, so i figured Charlie either never bought a new one, or he had to have gotten it around the time Renee left. It was white and judging by the looks of it, Charlie was home. I didn't stick around too long, someone would point out my car right away. It an expensive car, and it had just come out as well. I drove towards the high school, and got out of the car. Checking the time, i figured school would be out soon. I crossed the parking lot, and up the steps. It wasn't much of a school. Kind of confusing too.

Some students were leaving buildings, early dismissal i suppose. It wasn't one building so much as a bunch clustered together. I debated whether or not to enroll. I could also use a glamour to cover up who i really was. At least that would give me time to determine whether or not i wanted to get to know her, involve her, if she'd have any potential. At least enough, enough potential to aid me, and survive the whole ordeal.

When i made the decision i left quickly. i didn't want anyone to see me, it might effect me later. If Isabella saw me show up with this car, and then the same car again with someone else, she might get suspicious. In hindsight, the car itself was suspicious.

I booked a motel room, and then got to work making my glamour. It wasn't my usual glamour, i mostly just spelled a necklace i wore. Spells without something to attach itself too gets shaky and eventually falls aparts. At least this way as long as i had it on i would always look this way. I wasn't sure what to do after that so i went for a run.

The next morning i went to the school. I was late for the first class but i dont really intend to be in school since i am supposed to be twenty two afterall. "Can i help you?" a lady asked the moment i entered the administrative office. She had such an open curiosity i knew i was about to become the town gossip. Fantastic.

"Yeah, i called yesterday to enroll?" she nearly leapt out of her seat.

"I believe i have your schedule somewhere around here. Where are you from dear?"

I didn't want to tell her. The truth could get me busted, a lie would just as well. "Here and there," i said evenly.

"Must be difficult always moving around," she said faking sympathy. I didn't like her very much. In fact, i didn't like small town people at all.

"Not really," i said and she just gave me a bright smile. She was kind of scaring me.

She handed me two slips of paper, "have all your teachers sign the blank one and hand it in at the end of the day."

"Why?" i asked frowning.

"It's policy, to make sure you find all your classes alright," she said smiling again. She was definitely creepy.

"Sure," i said and left, note to self, avoid the office.

I found my way to the last period before lunch and knocked on the door. Everyone stared. "Can i help you?" the teacher asked, clearly not pleased with the interruption.

"Yeah, you can talk to me without being snide," i said irritated.

"Take your seat or get out," he said harshly. I rolled my eyes and took a seat. Everyone was staring at me, and to be honest i wasnt enjoying the attention. I suppose i should've been used to it, even in hell i was never over looked or underestimated.

"I'm Mike," some kid said, catching up with me.

"Cool," i said unimpressed.

"Your Hailey right?"

"No," i said smirking a little. Why not screw with him a little.

"Why does everyone think your name is Hailey then?" he seemed perplexed and had the weirdest look on his face.

"Who knows," i said evenly.

"Would you like to sit with us at lunch?" he asked giving me a smile that would probably win over any other human.

"Sure, what the hell," i said and his eyes lit up as if it were christmas. Was it just me or did these Normal's seem strange? I hoped everyone wasn't like this.

I didn't bother with food, though i did get a bottle of water. Mike kept asking me questions and i flat out kept changing the subject. Turns out he took me to the table Isabella was seated at, along with two Other's. It made me a little hesitant. I couldn't tell what they were, i guess i was a little rusty after being in hell or over four years. They had golden eyes, which kind of struck me as odd. I'd never seen an Other with eyes like that. They might be a new breed, or rather an old breed just now being discovered.

"So Hailey, where are you from?" one of the Others asked, they'd all introduced themselves, but i hadn't really paid attention. I think her name was Alice.

"All over the place," i said vaguely. Her and the Other across from her shared a look.

"Who do you live with?" Isabella asked, staring at me. She'd been giving me the same look since i'd sat down. At first i thought she'd figured me out. I was impressed with her already, she practically radiated Other. She really was part of the family.

"No one, i just moved into the area, i haven't even picked out a house," i said carefully.

"Where's your family?" Mike asked.

"Dead," i said shrugging. Everyone stared at me. "What?"

"Dead, how?" Isabella asked and i raised my eyebrows.

"They died in a fire, i was away at the time," i left out the part about my brother.

"I'm sorry to hear that, you must've been young at the time," Isabella said honestly.

"No, i was," i bit down on my tongue, i had almost said i was dead at the time. That would've raised a few questions. "It was a few years ago."

"That must've been awful," Edward i think his name was, said with fake feeling. This people were giving me a headache. I suddenly wondered if they had psychic abilities. That would explain the poking feeling i kept getting

"I guess," i said shrugging. "My family was never close."

"Did you have brothers and sisters?" Bella asked suddenly. She'd mentioned earlier that she didn't like being called Isabella. I'd decided before i even sat down, just looking at her, just feeling her energy, she was ready for my world. I decided to give her what she wanted. Confirmation.

"I had a twin brother, he'd died when we were twelve, his name was Kade. we have a younger half sister, but we'd never met her before," i said shrugging. I was waiting for her to catch on and it didn't take long either. Bella just stared at me.

"I have to go," she said suddenly. Everyone watched as the two others followed her and they all disappeared out the door. I had a feeling she wouldn't tell them about me, but i couldn't be totally sure. I finished off the day without too much questions. When i got home i decided to go for a run. The run was like any other, until i got home and someone was sitting on the bench outside my door.
