Five Years Later

Just as I had suspected the Volturi declined me and now I am nothing. I don't talk to anyone, I don't go to school, or even play the piano anymore. I am nothing.

One early morning I'd traveled all the way up to northwest Canada. To my surprise, I saw Tanya hunting. She saw me too, then she started walking my direction.

"Haven't seen you around in awhile," she said casually. I decided that I needed to talk, stop feeling sorry for myself, and move on with life."You sure got that right," I said, trying to be friendly.

"Are you still upset with what happened with umm...well you know," she asked.

"Yes, I am still very much upset about what happened. But I am not angry with you anymore. Friends?"

"Friends! Thanks, I am so happy that you forgave me! I regret what I did, just so you know." she stated. "So, what are you doing up here all by yourself?" she asked, curiously.

"Well I'm not that sure. I just had to get away for awhile. You?"

"There weren't much carnivores in Alaska, so I came down here."

"Ahh, I see,"

"I'd better get going before the rest of my family starts to wonder where I am. I'll see you soon, Edward." she said. Then she came over to give me a goodbye-hug. The way she hugged me made me realize that she still has feelings for me.

"Goodbye, Tanya," I said as she dashed off into the Canadian wilderness.
