hey thanks to those who favrotied,reviewed or followed I love you guys! this is my first fanfiction so im glad I don't totally suck. for those who had to deal with the bad formating situation i'm so sorry i promise that will never going to happen.
*I dont Own anything in this story except the plot. I think... who knows now in days.*
I could smell them there was more than three in the area. What stunned me was I could not tell what they were. They weren't shape shifters or of the fae but seemed close enough. But it was defiantly an immortal smell. It almost seemed like a vampiric smell but not quite. Was it a news species?
Highly doubtful in all my years I have only seen two new species one in the days of the Roman empire and around 1300 years ago a lad named Safaru who had major health problems bitten by what he described as a god. Personally I suspect was a rakshasa. Since then I have heard that his heir one Aro had taken over the role of one of the three kings in volttera. I walked into the school adjusting to the scent.
I went to all my classes till in one I got pared with a well dressed boy that obviously not human. He looked much like a vampire except his eyes which did not hold the red of tradition but a golden milky brown. How odd...
He tensed as I neared and faced the other way as I sat down. It took me a bit to realize, my blood would sing to any vampire and he must be an offshoot of them. He was tempted by my blood and I was sitting there like a chocolate bar or something. I felt kinda sorry for him.
I erased some of my scent to make it easier on him in an act of sympathy. When the bell rang he bolted out of the room before anyone else had a chance to move. Maybe a little to fast to seem normal.
I went to lunch taking my time. I soon found a group of kids that welcomed me. We talked and I acted like I was one of them, one of the highschoolers that had no idea how lucky they were and how easy their life was.
I looked up as the smell of the immortals hit me. There was five of them, three boys, two girls. They were defiantly vampires but why the strange eye color?
"Who are they?"
"They are the cullens. The big muscular one is Emmet the girl next to him is Rosalie and they are together." I didn't exactly need that last bit of info it was obvious to me. The barely visible red string of fate tied to their pinky fingers was a pretty good clue.
"The one that looks like he is always in pain is Jasper. The girl next to him is his girlfriend Alice."
Alice...she was beautiful... I mean Yah she was a vampire but it was a different kind of beautiful. Like she beammed happiness making you almost feel it just looking at her.
The guy sitting next to her did in fact look in pain but it was no wonder why. He seemed to be under 200 and hungry, not killing someone would cause anyone like that hunger pains. Besides my common judgment I felt jealous he got to hold that goddess of a girl. Only when I noticed their pinkys did I relax, there was no red string that attached them. They were not true mates. In fact the boys led to the other male on the end and Alice's had none around it. Either her mate had not been born yet or she was mated to a immortal that could not be traced.
"The one on the end is Edward."
"The one that does not realize what a comb is?" Every one laughed at my joke. when i looked back Edward glared harder at me. But both Emmet and Alice were laughing outright. Rosalie and Jasper tried to hide theirs but it was obvious. He stood up and stormed out.
"10 bucks says that tomorrow he'll try brushing it down." i heard the one called Emmet say to the little goddess.
"your on."
For the next couple of days none of them showed up to class. Maybe they went to feed they did seem hungry. On the second day the reason for their absence became obvious... it was sunny of course they weren't at school
They returned soon enough obviously well Fed. . In class Edward tried to flirt with me. I didn't think he could be that stupid. He mistook me for his mate because my blood sang to him? How did he become such a fool? At least that is my biggest problem, now I don't have to worry for a bit about school. kids missing would be unfortunate. But I have been looking for disappearances in the newspaper abs such but none have been reported. When I asked Charlie if their had been any bodies found he answered: "no should there be?" It was kinda frustrating. How talented were they to hide their feeding this well.
At lunch I took another look at them their eyes were brighter so they had fed but who and where?
When I walked out to get my bike I was called over by a 'friends' to talk. While walking over there I heard the squeal of tires I looked up to find a van skidding towards me. The boy driving it looked scared and worried as he found my eyes. I vaguely wondered how many bones I should break when it hit me because even in my weakened state that hunk of metal would only create bruises and I need to seem normal.
I was snapped out of my thoughts when I felt, then saw 3 figures almost flitting towards me. Edward got there first. He pushed me behind him and stopped the van with his hand. The fool! How did he expect to hide that? Soon Alice and Emmet pretended to have troubles moving the van away but moved it eventually. I stood up pretending to be shocked.
"Thank you"
I looked up to find Jasper looking confused. Could he sense that I was acting? I looked at him and played around with my thoughts in a viable form. He didn't react but Edward did. So Edward has a gift, I then altered my emotions which finally got a reaction from him. Interesting he is some kind of emote. I looked at him challenging him to say soon turned to away.
I looked back forward to see Emmet leading Edward away. where had Alice gone? I looked back to Rosalie and Jasper. she had not gone back over there..where was sh... I jumped at the hand brushing my arm.
"Bella are you okay?"
she was directly in front of me looking up at me.
" uhhh..fine um..."
I couldn't focus at all. my vision zoomed out and blurred for a minute and then refocused. But I saw more in that couple seconds than I had seen all week. A simple red strong tied to each of or pinkys.
"We should get you to a doctor. Come on."
Usually I would refuse, doctors and I don't mix well. Super healing and trying to control my powers plus anesthesia and observant people, not the best idea for laying low. but when she said it... it seemed like the best idea in the world. I hopped on my bike and motioned for her to get on. she looked at me like I was crazy. I heard a growl from Edward and she seemed phased by it.
" I'll take her!" was this guy that stupid?
"I can drive fine and I believe I motioned to the lady not you."
He looked taken aback at that in fact they all did. Jasper was the first to recover maybe he had pieced it together but I didn't really care of he had. He grabbed Edwards arm and pulled him away motioning Alice to go towards me and smiled. Maybe he had realized... i didn't have that much time to think because soon Alice's arms were around my waist and that effectively shut the majority of my brain down. i took off not even minding my speed. Making Alice wrap her arms around me tighter.
"Which way?"
"A right then straight down and then a left on the road with the shoes over the power line!"
I nodded and it was very little time before we got there. She bounded off and turned to look at me with more worry in her eyes. I got off my bike and followed her into the building.
" dad!" she shouted at a man in a doctors coat passing by.
Dad? He turned towards her and i could see that honey brown color in his eyes. He walked with the authority of a royal and once upon a time he may have been.
" Alice what are you doing here?" As he got closer i heard him whisper: " it's not safe"
so quietly i almost missed it. Not safe? Oh! Hospital,vampire, bad. I looked over at her and saw she could smell it. the smell of blood is always present in hospitals.
"My friend she is hurt. She got hit by a van." His eye brow raised as he looked over at me and back to his 'daughter'
" Edward stopped it." She said as if it was the most normal thing ever. He nodded his head in understanding.
" come with me."
I followed him through hallways till he motioned me into a room and told Alice to go home. It wasn't till she left that the true danger of the situation hit me. I was in a doctors office... crap.
"what are you?"
I let it slip out of my mouth to distract him while I focused on making bruises by reversing my healing ability.
"what do you mean."
" humans can't stop vans and leave hand prints in metal, they also can't run that fast"
" We are no danger to anyone that's all you need to know."
I was fixed up in minutes and told to have a nice day. I left quickly trying to remain at a normal speed as I went home to think about everything. This is weird and that's saying something when you have lived for as long as I have.
