A/N: Don't worry guys, there will be more Nikkole interacting with the Cullen's soon enough.


I quickly stopped my learning when Mason sent me a teasing look. Rolling my eyes, I trailed after Samira, shoes in hand, with Oliver by my side.

We all sat around a bonfire, which was only another thing to boost my mood. The extra warmth on my skin was soothing and having my element so close was calming.

"We need to know more about your kind. We've never heard of Elemental's before." I assume this was the leader of the pack speaking. He seemed to be the biggest of them all.

Samira nodded. "I am not an Elemental. The rest of my family is. But, I can tell you about them. None of us are blood related. They have control over a certain Element. The Elementals are now very rare. After a war between them and vampires, many of them were killed. We move around a lot to stay hidden and make sure that the elemental's continue to live on."

The pack leader stiffly nodded, eyeing us. He didn't trust us, I knew that for sure. I couldn't blame him. He didn't know what we were or what threat we held.

Samira just continued to speak. "Nikkole," I raised my hand up with a slight wave. "can control fire. The boy beside her, Oliver, can control earth. Mason is a water elemental and Elaine is air."

They all studied us for a moment before a boy decided to talk.

"It sounds like the red head is the most dangerous." One of the pack mates blurted out.

I didn't hold back my glare. "I know how to control my powers, you dumb as-"

"Nikkole, stop." Samira ordered sharply.

I, again, rolled my eyes and just decided to keep my mouth shut now. Last thing I wanted is to have Samira on my case all night.

Oliver threw his arm around me with a smile and I leaned into his side. "Nikki would never hurt anyone that was innocent. None of us would."

"Thanks, Ollie." I muttered softly feeling calmer.

"How did they become Elementals?" Asked another of the members.

"Its much like how you all became shifters. They had the gene. Although, their parents had no idea that it could happen. There were no legends to be told." A sad sigh escaped Samira's lips. "Once they find out that they are indeed Elemental's, they are taken away from their parents and sent to a home with others of their kind. Most of the time, they rarely ever hear from their blood family again."

I haven't heard from my family since that night I was taken. It was always rough around my dad. Since he did everything he could to prove that I wasn't his child. My red hair made no sense so, in his mind, my mother cheated. She didn't.

He would always come home drunk and slap her around, making me watch.

One night, I don't even remember what was going through my head, just something in me told me to stop him. So, I ran over to where he just shoved my mother into the class china cabinet and grabbed his arm. (Remind you, I was only five at this time.) That's when my power finally kicked in and I burned him, severely.

That earned me the three scars that I'll forever have. One starts from my elbow and ends on my wrist, the second one is much smaller on my collarbone, and the last one is located on my lower back, from a pieces of glass from the shattered China cabinet.

My childhood wasn't easy. Maybe becoming an elemental was the best thing for me. Even though that was my very last day of being a normal human girl. It gave me the family I needed and so very much wanted.

Once my father found out what I was, he was quick to kick me out. Even my mother was afraid of me. I was dangerous and forever will be.
