Chapter 2 – Unexpected arrival

Caggie's POV

The night passed very peacefully with only the sounds of a few birds passing high above our heads in the sky. There had been no signs of any wolves, be it werewolves or normal wolves, and we were finally able to fully relax when the sun came up and made the forest around us come to life.

I left Kimm to do whatever she was doing in her compact room which would only fit a small desk in, which was enough as the only thing she ever wanted to do was write and draw. Usually her images were of happy scenes, such as the forest with its beautiful vibrant greens of the dense tree foliage and the oval shaped leaves. The seaside's that we had visited over the years, but now, all of a sudden, her drawings have become darker and more depressing. She has drawn blurry, dark figures striding towards you. When you look directly at them you can notice the golden eyes, the pale skin and, most importantly, their ferocious stares. These characters appeared to be of vampire kind but the golden eyes are strange and neither of us knows what they are trying to convey.

I have always believed that Kimm had a special ability. Ever since that very first time that we met another of our kind with a special ability I knew that she also had one because she'd been producing drawings of our future for several months at that point. I thought it was just some newborn phase she was going through but the other vampires that we met were so much older that I knew it couldn't just happen whilst you are a newborn.

Kimm has been protecting us with her ability for years now and I greatly appreciate it but these newer images are beginning to unnerve me as there is a strong chance that what she is drawing could occur in the future. What we don't know is when it will occur and so, for now, I'm going to be extra cautious.

We left to go hunting after an hour or so of just sitting their staring at the newly-drawn images before us, trying our best to figure them out.

The forest was just as it usually was: very green and soaked from the mornings shower with the dripping of dew from each individual leaf occurring every second or so. I couldn't smell any humans nearby, probably just staying indoors as it was raining so we weren't going to get an easy meal today. I began running for the nearest house when, suddenly, out of the lush green woods came this massive boulder crashing into me, knocking me to the ground several meters away due to the momentum that we had been travelling at. I got up and immediately crouched into a defensive position when Kimm caught up with me and flanked my left side, which was nearest my attacker. I looked back at the boulder-sized creature crouched before me, mirroring my stance, before turning my head to see the attackers two companions running up to defend him.

I took a submissive step backwards. We were outnumbered, and sure to lose our lives if we didn't escape now.

I was about to turn and run when one of the companions spoke.

"What are you doing here?" he asks in a subdued tone.

"We're just passing through the area" I lie smoothly, hoping they don't notice. Apparently they noticed and the other companion, the one with blond curly hair, looked at the person questioning me and calmly stated "lying".

I hissed furiously at them. How could they know what was truth and what was lies? There is no way I can trust them at all to tell them the truth. Before I could reply I heard the soft voice of Kimm behind me talking calmly to them.

Kimm's POV

I felt like we could trust these strange vampires with eyes ranging in colour from butterscotch to caramel. My thoughts may be due to the strange drawings that I've been doing or just the fact that I felt lonely. I have spent a few years in this existence and my only friend has been Caggie. All we've done is roam around the world, meeting the odd nomad who we pass on the way but then we move on because there is nothing left to do. All this existence is about is feeding. That is the only thing that we need to do. We don't need to eat, drink… well, not to keep ourselves hydrated but because of the thirst and we don't need to breathe. After a few years, it gets… boring, tedious and repetitive.

Now these newcomers have provided me with the perfect opportunity to jump ship, to go and live with another set of nomads and find out about them before moving on again. The only thing that I crave more than blood right now is companionship. I long to be with many friends and have a, sort of, family I suppose.

That's why I decided to tell these strange vampires, crouched on the ground in defensive positions, the truth. I told them everything, about our change, what we'd done so far in our existence, about the wars in the south, to which the vampire with blond, curly hair raised both his eyebrows in surprise and curiosity but before he could ask any questions I cut him off by asking them what they were doing here.

"My name is Carlisle, this is my son, Jasper" he said, gesturing to the vampire with the curly, blond hair and the scarred face. I lingered on his face for a few seconds before nodding and making my mind remember a face to every name he mentioned. "And this is Edward" he continued gesturing at the creature crouched in front of my best friend. He had wild, tousled, bronze hair and a very handsome face. He shouldn't have noticed my appraisal but somehow he looked at me before taking a couple of steps backwards, and standing up. Everyone noticed the tension and Carlisle cleared his throat before continuing his explanation.

"We live here permanently and this is our territory you are on" he said politely with a slight smile tugging at his lips.

Before I could speak, Caggie cut in and gave me a sharp look.

"That's OK, we'll just be leaving" she sneered and I grimaced. Great. Chance lost; off we go travelling the world. The vampire named Edward smiled at me before asking Carlisle whether we could stay for a night or two. I grinned back at them as Caggie twitched next to me. She met my eyes and hers were furious. It was obvious that she didn't want to stay with them but I simply looked back at Edward. "We'd love to!" I exclaimed, getting a 'what do you think you're doing' look from Caggie who simply shook her head at me. I just smiled back. Looks like my chance to jump ship might just be back into play… and that's just what I was hoping for.
