As we approach the house, the notice our presence.

"Race ya," I challenge.

"You're on," Nicolai says.

He kicks off a tree and beats me. To slow me down, Nicolai grabs my hands and spins me in a circle. I giggle.

I compose myself and look up to see Carlisle's coven.

"Hello, my name is An and this is my brother, Nicolai," I say.

Carlisle steps forward.

Nicolai and I smile. We jump on Carlisle ad wrap out arms around his neck, hugging him. He chuckles and hugs us back.

"I missed you two," he says.

"I missed you, too," Nicolai and I say.

Carlisle turn around and says, "I'd like you to meet Anastasia and Nicolai, my first children."

"It's still just An," I say.

"It's a pleasure to meet you. Stay as long as you like," black haired woman says.

Esme, my mind says.

"We're just stopping by," I say.

"Come on, An. I'm tired of moving around," Nicolai whines.

"And I don't want to settle down," I say.

"At last stay through summer," Esme says.

Summer stated yesterday.

"We'd love to," Nicolai says before I can say anything.

"Alright, then I'll show you to the spare room," Carlisle says.

As Carlisle walks to the house, we pass anther blonde male.

Jasper, my mind says.

I dwell deeper.

Major, southern, empathy, excellent fighter.

I jump on his back and say, "I like you. I've never met a major."

"Well thank you, ma'am," he says laying the southern charm on thick.

"So what have you two been up to?" Carlisle asks.

"Nothing worthy of sharing," Nicolai says.

"We stopped in to visit Aro," I say.

"Only to discover that there I no Aro," Nicolai finishes.

"Who was that marvelous blonde wolf?" I ask.

I could have used one of my powers, but I'm too hungry.

"That was me," a blonde female, only a few human years older than I, with red eyes, says.

"You are an amazing fighter," Nicolai says.

"Thank you," she says.

"Carlisle, this dear child has red eyes. Does she not follow your diet?" I ask.

"Emma has allergies. She cannot stomach animal blood," Carlisle answers.

"A vampire with allergies?" I ask

"That is most interesting," Nicolai says.

We enter their beautiful home and Carlisle and jasper show us to our room.

Nicolai and I jump off our holders and look around the room. There's a massive king bed, dresser, closet, desk, and other human necessities.

As we investigate, the smell of blood catches me off guard.

"You have a supply of blood. Why?" I ask.

"I don't hunt," Emma says.

"May we have some?" Nicolai asks.

"Of course," Carlisle says.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Carlisle goes to his office and comes back with to water bottles filled with blood. Nicolai and I look at each other, then at the bottles, then back at each other.
"This is seriously how you feed?" I scoff.
Emma nods.
"Thanks, but no thanks," Nicolai says.
"We'll go hunting later," I say.
"Nowhere near here," a brown haired female says.
Bella, shield, mother of the female with golden curls.
Renesmee, can give you her thoughts through touch, imprinted on by a werewolf, child of Bella and the _ haired male.
Edward, mind reader, _.
"How did she work?" I ask, pointing at Renesmee.
"I carried her while I was human," Bella says.
Way to explain, I think.
Nicolai smiles beside me.
I go through the other members of the coven.
Esme, Carlisle's mate, motherly.
Watch out for her, I think to Nicolai.
He reads her and nods.
Alice, can see the future, Jasper's mate, asylum girl Nicolai changed.
Nanu, mind control, mate to a brown haired man, but someone else, too.
She can control what we read, break her. I want to know her other mate, I think to Nicolai.
Benjamin, controls the elements, mated to Nanu, but there's a slight connection to someone, too. Alice, I find.
Find anything? I ask Nicolai.
She's strong and determined to keep it hidden, Nic says.
We'll break her, I say.
What does it matter?
I just want to know.
Nicolai shrugs.
Emmett, strong, mated to the blonde female.
Rosalie, motherly, mated to Emmett.
Watch out for her, too,
I think.
Emma, shape shifter, allergic to animal blood, mated to a _ haired male.
Jeremy, can undo vampire change, mated to Emma, stranger I changed.
"Your eyes are red, too. Why?" Nicolai asks Jeremy.
"It's not strong enough. I'd have to clear a whole forest just to be able to function," he says.
He was a nomad. I can tell by his odd combination of accents.
I look at Nicolai.
Should we tell him and Alice? I ask.
Nicolai nods.
"Alice, Jeremy," I start, getting their attention.
"You know how you don't know your creators?" Nic asks.
They nod.
"We're your creators," I say.
"I'm yours, Alice," Nicolai says.
"And I'm yours, Jeremy."
"No, no, no you're not. My creator was a grown man," Alice says, with big eyes, nervously rubbing her neck.
Nic changes into the grown man.
Alice gasps.
"See," Nicolai says, changing back to a ten year old.
"Do you believe us now?" I ask.
"Why don't we remember anything?" Jeremy asks.
"We made you forget," I say.
"Could you make us remember?" Alice asks.
"If you really want to," Nicolai says.
I give Jeremy his memories back; his mother and sister in France, how protective he was of them, his father dying, the girl he was arranged to marry, his childhood, everything I give back.
Nicolai gives Alice back her memories; her human visions, her mother and sister, living with her father and step mother, the asylum, James.
"I'm French?" Jeremy asks.
"Yep," I answer.
Alice seems to be in shock.
"Are you ok, Alice?" Nic asks.
"Yeah, I'm fine," she says.
"Vasilii!" Edward says.
"What?"
"You look like Vasilii."
"He was our brother," I say.
"Technically, we created him," Nicolai corrects.
"What do you mean?" Carlisle asks.
"We took human Vasilii, who was actually a brunette, and looked absolutely nothing like us, changed his features, and made him a vampire," I explain.
"We hadn't heard that Immortal Children were illegal, so when we found out the Volturi were coming, we put the Denali girl in charge of him, made her think she created him, and let it be her problem," Nicolai continues.
"So he was more your child than your brother?" Carlisle asks.
"Yes, but we're twins and vampires, and that doesn't make much sense," I say.
"I miss little Vasilii," Nicolai says.
"We should go find him," I say.
"He's long dead. You won't even be able to find the ashes," Edward says.
"We'll see about that," I say.
I imagine Vasilii, here, in the room with us. Suddenly, he's here.
"Anie! Nicy!" he squeals.
He jumps in my arms.
"Told you," I say.
"How did you do that?" Carlisle gawks.
"Easy. Like mind control, but Original style."
Vasilii smells the bottles Carlisle's holding and lunges. I grab his ankles and hold him upside down.
"That might be a problem," Nic mutters.
Vasilii squirms and bites at my wrists. He makes eye contact with Rosalie and uses his charms to get the bottles. He chugs them down and I set him on his feet, holding his hand.
I look him in the eye and tell him never to use his charms again, using mind control to make sure he never does.
"Is he an Original like you?" Carlisle asks.
"Of course, he basically is us," Nicolai says.
"Anie, I'm hungry," Vasilii says.
"I know, buddy," I say.
There's a hybrid, he thinks. His black eyes start to glow.
Edward growls.
Shield your thoughts, I think.
Vasilii's mental wall goes up.
"Do you have any more bottles?" Nic asks.
"Don't let midget terror eat all my food," Emma says.
Vasilii looks up at her with big eyes.
"Stop that," I scold.
He looks up at me and holds up his arms. I pick him up and hold him on my hip.
Carlisle leaves and comes back with two bottles. Vasilii drinks them down and cries, "More, more!"
"Four is plenty," Carlisle says.
"He hasn't fed in centuries," I say.
Carlisle gets two more bottles and Vasilii's eyes glow red.
"So hybrid,-" I start.
"It's Renesmee," she says.
"I know. Where's your wolf?"
"La Push."
"Why isn't he here?"
"He phases every few years, but he's still getting old. It's starting to get to him."
A solemn mood falls over the Cullens.
This is why I turned myself off, I think.
I turned off my emotions, keeping me from getting attached, or caring. My brothers are an exception and it made feeding easier; not caring that I killed people.
Go through her memories with him. She was so happy, Nicolai thinks.
Key word 'was', I think back.
"Nic and I need to feed. We'll be back later," I say.
Vasilii jumps on my back and I take Nicolai's hand.
We run to northern Canada (so northern that if we kept going north, we'd be swimming) and find a tribal pack.
Nicolai takes off from my side. I compel Vasilii to control himself and let him go.
I go into the nearest hut. There's a couple and two children. I tear out their throats, then sink my teeth into the man's neck. The warm blood runs down my throat and puts out the fire. When he's dry, I move over to his wife, then his children. I leave their hut and run to the next one. I take out a total of three huts.
When we're all full, there's no one left. We run back to the Cullen's.
