Chapter 4

It took three days.

Three days of watching this woman suffer because of me. Every time she screamed and begged for me to make it end. I couldn't bring myself to do it.

If I did her eyes would haunt me just like his. I couldn't even bring myself to say his name in my head much less out loud. The only good thing I could find out of this is that this woman pulled me out of my trance. If she had not I would have killed her and many more. But the thirst died and hasn't come back.

I heard a gasp and saw the woman shoot up in bed looking around frantically.

When her gaze landed on me, her eyes narrowed to slits. Then they widened in disbelief.

"You didn't kill me."

I could tell she was wondering why? I mean why not? I was unimaginably thirsty. She could have sated my thirst but instead I saved her.

"I couldn't. It was wrong."

I gave her a once over then a twice. She looked different but I couldn't pin point what. She had extremely pale skin, long curled chestnut hair, and perfect body. But I saw all that change during the transformation. Then it hit me. It was her eyes instead of the emerald green they were crimson. It wasn't right. I had watched over her, cared for her through the change. Just so I could get a glance at those eyes again but they were gone.

"W-what am I?"

I smiled as best I could but it came out as more of a grimace.

"A vampire or at least that's what I was told by…Ugh someone."

Sovay.

At least before she left me. She told me that this woman was changing into a vampire and for the first couple of years she would be a newborn. Like me she would be incredibly fast, strong, and would not age or die. She might also have an ability.

Sovay had offered this cabin to me to contain her. She told me that all these books have yet to be written, or at least the ones I didn't know.

"Who are you?" This woman was getting more confident as she stared at her appearance in the vanity mirror.

I wondered how she would take it if she knew I was her queen.

"Isabella Swan but you can call me Bella."

She looked up at me and grinned. It was one of those grins that stretches from one ear to the other and even reaches the eyes.

"Well Bella, I'm Victoria but you can call me Tori." Tori glanced back at her reflection then hopped over the bed to the closet. I could tell we would be good friends. She was one of those people you couldn't help but love.

Tori came out spinning making her new violet dress fan out. She smiled brightly, "Watch this!" She got a concentrated look in her eyes then her eyes turned to the bright green I loved.

My eyes stung with tears that were going to be forever unshed. I think she saw the pain that I was in and I'm sure it was written all over my face. Because she crossed the room and pulled me into her arms. "Shh honey it will be okay shh. No matter what I'll make it okay. I'm sorry." I just nodded and dry sobbed into her granite shoulder.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" I didn't know if I wanted to talk about. One way I get emotional release the other I bottle it up until I explode. Pulling away I looked back into her eyes to see that they had turned crimson again.

"I-I ugh…sure."

So I told her about the first time I met Edward and how he made me feel. I told her how good it felt to be cared for, to be held together by someone you trust completely. I told her about his crooked smile and his tendency to catch me whenever I fell. He was my hero my love. And most of all I told her how he was torn from me. Ripped from my very arms. How I stood there and let him die. I didn't stop it. Then I told her the promise I had made him. I told him that we would be together soon one-way or another. But I had lied. I had lied to his face while he was on his deathbed.

During all of this Tori had sat there rubbing small circles into my back and listening intently.

When I finished her eyes flashed with pure hatred. "Do you want me to kill that sick bastard because I swear to god that I will?" She wanted to kill Roscoe.

"He's already dead. Sovay killed him."

She just growled and whispered angrily what sounded like, "then I will bring him back from hell and kill him again. And I will repeatedly kill him until I feel you and Edward were thoroughly justified."

I just laughed and shook my head. It felt amazing to tell someone all about this pain I was keeping inside.

"Oh, I'm so sorry Tori. I had broke down before you got to explain to me all that your power can do."

"Aww it's okay. I think I can change things at will like my appearance or other peoples appearances. I'm also a-" she seemed to be trying to think of a word that fit. "A jumper. I can go from here to any place in the world in a blink of a eye. I don't know if I can bring people though." She said eyeing me. "I guess we'll find out right? Wait I am staying with you right?" For the first time she looked uncertain in herself and me.

I giggled, "of course. There's no were else I could be anyways."

Smiling she crashed into me giving me the biggest hug… EVER.

"We'll be like sisters. Sisters forever and ever. Nothing and no one can drive a wedge between us." She looked up at me sweetly then, "Oh lets go to Paris doesn't that just sound phenomenal. And think of the French men…yummy!"

Tori dragged me to my feet then holding my hand firmly she got that concentrated look back in her eyes. And for a split second there was no ground beneath me. Tori and I were just swirling. But the ground came rushing back and as we looked up there was a busy road in front of us with. With horse carriages and people bustling around. Elbowing and shoving their way through the crowds.

This was Paris!

Tori's and my new life started here.

Right... NOW!?
