Chapter three
Previously:
The fire constricted, concentrating inside that one remaining human organ with a final, unbearable surge. The surge was answered by a deep, hollow-sounding thud. My heart stuttered twice, and then thudded quietly again just once more.
There was no sound. No breathing. Not even mine.
For a moment, the absence of pain was all I could comprehend.
And then I opened my eyes and gazed above me in wonder.
Everything was so clear. Sharp. Defined.
I could see the glowing strands of filaments inside the light bulb. I could see each colour of the rainbow in the white light, and, at the very edge of the spectrum, an eighth colour I had no name for. Behind the light, I could see the individual grains in the dark wood ceiling above. In front of it, I could see the dust motes in the air, the sides the light touched, and the dark sides, distinct and separate. They spun like little planets, moving around each other in a celestial dance. The dust was so beautiful that I inhaled in shock; the air whistled down my throat, swirling the motes in to a vortex. The action felt wrong. I considered, and realized the problem was that there was no relief tied to the action. I reacted indifferently to the influx. I did not need the air but I liked it. I could taste the room around me; taste the lovely dust motes and…something horrible, but sweet at the same time. Fear.
I turned toward where it was coming from, wrinkling my nose in disgust. I saw Sally standing in the corner trembling.
I sat up on the purple bed. "Sally, why are you scared?"
She gasped and her eyes widened. The smell got stronger. I cocked my head to the side confused. I stood up on the bed and jumped off gracefully.
I walked over to sally. I was about halfway there when she said, "don't come near me bloodsucker!"
"Huh?" I asked
"Sally!" scolded Avis
"No. Its true! She is a vampire! She can't live amongst us!"
"And why not?" I let a feral snarl out as my tail and ears came out and I burst into flames
Sally burst into a grey and white wolf with piercing blue eyes. She growled at me.
Aubrey changed her form to a girl with murky blue eyes and was wearing a black dress.
Avis changed into a young teenage girl with green-blue hair and a flowy green dress
I ran my tongue across my teeth and froze. "I have f-fangs?"
"WHAT! Ohmiigod! Let me see!" Aubrey squealed as she ran over to me and pulled my top lip up.
"But what are you going to eat?" asked Avis
"I don't know yet" I answered.
Everyone changed back but me. My hair had turned charcoal black and my eyes had too. Even my ears!
"Damn. We'll talk after I have a shower" I said as I walked out of the room
"Bella! You owe me a new carpet!" cried Avis
I turned around and stalked back to the bedroom. I opened the door slightly and looked at the carpet. There was a circle of scorched carpet that had been burned by me.
"woops." I giggled
"hmph. Woops" she grumbled.
Sally and Aubrey laughed.
I walked to the bathroom and took my shower. It was so hot that if I were human I would have burned myself. When I got out I noticed that there was a silk, black robe with hot pink flowers on it. I smiled. There was a green note on top.
It said:
Bella we have gone shopping for you. DO NOT leave the house at all. Wear the robe until we return with your clothing. We repeat do not leave the house!
Lots of love,
Avis, Sally and Aubrey.
Ok well it looks like I am home alone for the next few hours. I headed downstairs and went into the kitchen. I took out a frying pan and tried, note that I said tried. I was trying to remember the recipe for chocolate chip pancakes. When I couldn't remember it I got frustrated and suddenly the frying pan was lit on fire. I groaned. Just at that moment Avis, Aubrey and Sally came through the front door.
They walked into the kitchen and dropped their bags.
"Oh dear lord" Sally said slapping a hand to her forehead. "You know what? I'll pretend I didn't see that" and with that she picked up her bags and walked out of the room.
"Charcoaled pancakes anyone?" I asked holding out the alight pan smiling
"Dear god Bella!" said Avis as she put out the fire. I laughed.
"Sorry Avis, I got frustrated and it kind of just went up in flames"
"YOU DON'T SAY!" came from upstairs.
Avis laughed
"Alright everyone in the lounge room and Aubrey please don't watch that annoying yellow sponge"
Aubrey rolled her eyes "Mom, his name is spongebob"
"Yes yes okay, turn the TV down though. Sally! Downstairs now!" Avis called
"I could go get her if you want Avis" I said as I fired up my hand in a flame, grinning, showing my fangs
"Oh don't you dare" Sally growled playfully from the doorway as she walked over to sit down on the couch.
"Well it's time for us to move and we cant stay in this place because Bella has gone 'missing' also I think we've spent enough time here. Lets have a vote where we should go"
"Europe!" cried Aubrey
"Alaska!" cried Sally
"Forks, Washington" I mumbled
They turned to look at me. "I think that Forks is a great idea. We could probably meet other creatures while we stay there too."
"but how would we be related?" Sally asked
"I have adopted you three and you all call me mom. Is that clear?"
"Yes mom" we droned
"So when do we move" Aubrey asked
"Within the next week would be great." Mom said
"OK girls! Lets get packing!" I grinned flashing a fang.
They nodded and we raced up he stairs.
"do not destroy any of my furniture, or you'll be sorry!" mom called
"No problemo mom!" I called
22 HOURS LATER
"oh my god. I cannot believe it took five of those hours to pack. And now we're sitting at a freakin airport!" cried Sally
"At least you don't have to smell everyone's feelings!" I retorted
"Wait what?" said mom
"yea I can smell people's emotions, like an empath kind of thing" I said
"When did you find this out?" asked Aubrey
"when we were packing" I replied filing my nails
"Flight phoenix, Arizona to Forks, Washington is about to board. Please go to gate 5A" the intercom said
we stood up and grabbed our handbags.
'YES! Im on the same flight as those hotties!'
"Woah. Stop right there sisters. And mother. Did one of you's just say something?" I asked
"No. why?" mom asked
"Holy Sh*t! I just heard someone's thoughts!" I whispered to my family
"Do. Not Curse Bella." Mom scolded
"sorry mom" I said
we got up the flight attendant and she gave us envious looks. I just had to snoop inside her head.
'grr I wonder what cream they use. Their skin looks so smooth! Im so jealous!'
I snickered at her silly thoughts. When she looked at my new passport and handed it back to me I gave her a huge grin showing her my fangs.
'jesus crist they have nice teeth!'
Sally walked up next to me. "you know, you shouldn't be showing people your fangs, they'll get suspicious"
"Meh, I read her thoughts, she was an all clear."
"wassat mean?" she asked
"her exact thoughts were 'Jesus crist they have nice teeth!'" I said placing my hands on top of my head smiling smugly
she laughed. "I'm off to find Aubrey, see you in a few hours" she said as we entered the plane.
I looked at my ticket. 36b was my seat number. Oh no! just my luck, I had to sit next to the over flirty boy from the airport.
'don't you dare create turbulance Sally, or I swear to god I will not hesitate to burn every single item of your clothing' I thought to her. I wanted to see if it worked. It did. Her eyes widened and she looked at my serious face. Then she saw who I was sitting next to and she laughed at me.
I showed me grabbing her favourite, one of a kind dress from her closet and holding it in front of her taunting her with it. I cut strips of it up with scissors. I put my finger alight and got closer and closer…
'okay okay! I wont create turbulance, just don't touch my dress!' she begged
'do not touch Sally's one of a kind dress unless creates turbulance, has been inserted in my head. You gave a wise choice sister'
"Hi I'm mike you are?" he asked
oh here we go.
"Isabella Starlotal" I said and put my earphones in my ears and put it on full blast. This was gonna be a long six hours.
