3. NEW HOME
I was moving to a small town name Forks population I don't really care, it's small. It has been two days since I was abducted and changed into an immortal being. God I hated it still I was so looking forward to dying guess that won't come now.
I sighed and walked out of the small airport and into a crowd of people and rain. Great another new home, another new parent, another new school just what I always wanted. Ugh and to think I will have to through this cycle my whole life… well not my whole life now what do I say my whole existence yeah that sounds about right seeing as how I cant die. Stupid idiotic scientists did they ever think to ask me whether I wanted it or not, no of course not no one asks you whether you want something they just give it to you. Did I ask for horrible visions that feel like your being ripped apart, no did I ask to be as strong as a vampire, no did I ask to be immortal and live in hell for the rest of I don't know the rest of the world, no I sure as hell didn't ask for any of those but it's what I got.
"Isabella." A man with brown hair and a police uniform on called. Looks like there's my new 'dad' wonderful.
"Yes hello." I said simply and put my one duffle bag in the trunk and walked around to the side of the passenger side door. His name was Charlie ugh that reminds me of the man who cursed me to this hell whole. Anyway his name was Charlie Swan-kind of ironic huh…no it's not- and he is the chef of police here in this small town which translated means a lot more attention than Bella wants. Maybe here I wont have to much death visions…pft who am I kidding I get them where ever I go it doesn't matter how small the town I get them every day about two times a day kind of like eating only much more painful.

The house wasn't that big, two story looks like I hadn't changed since he bought it. Oh well I liked it, it looked homey and there was an old beat up truck in front of the house. Umm… why did he buy me a truck I mean no one else did except for Sindy and Jace but they were the ones who helped that doctor change me. Ugh disgusting.
"I umm… didn't really think you would want to ride in a police cruiser to school, so I bought you a car." He sounded nervous despite myself I actually found myself liking this Charlie guy, he kind of reminds me of my dad.
"Thank you." I said simply I wasn't about to open up to anyone but I felt bad so I added "its great Charlie really it is, I'm… Umm… I don't talk a lot-
Thankfully I was saved from my word stumblings by Charlie "No I understand really, I am so sorry that happen to you really they had no right they are monsters." Wow he actually sounded mad.
"Yeah umm… well thanks I guess." I said unsure what to say to that I smiled though it was nice I felt normal with Charlie I haven't felt like this with any foster parents except Sindy and Jace, but they betrayed me.
We got out of the car and walked up to the porch Charlie insisted that he carried my bag upstairs another one of my dad qualities I haven't seen in a while. My dad never let me carry anything too heavy even though with my weird strength he said I was a princess and princesses should never carry heavy things. I blinked back tears and said to Charlie "Thanks that… was…uh…really nice." I stumbled again.
"No problem Bells." He said and I froze 'Bells' my dad use to call me that all the time it was my nickname, I hated it I smiled slightly and turned around so Charlie wouldn't see the tear that was about to run down my face. "Alright I will… uh leave you to it then." And he shut the door.
Once he was gone I sunk to my knees and started crying about everything, my life, my parents, me being immortal, the tattoo on my back that stood for strength in some ancient language. Everything.
About ten minutes later I got up wiped my tears and started unpacking, I was done in about an hour or two then I washed my face and went downstairs. "Hey Charlie." I said hesitant.
"Yeah Bells." He said watching T.V I flinched at the name it was like taking a bullet.
"Umm… Do you have anything to eat?" I said looking in the refrigerator, I felt normal here, for the first time in many years I felt like I was home.
"Uh… no I'm not really a good cook, I ordered pizza though." He said not taking his eyes of the screen.
"Pepperoni?" I said before I realized why I said it.
"Yeah why?" He said still not taking his eyes of the screen. The I realized why I said pepperoni, because my dad was a horrible cook too whenever my mom was away he would order pepperoni pizza and we would watch a baseball game.
"No reason, I just… Uh…" I stuttered when I realized he was watching a baseball game too. Then the worst thing happened I got a vision. The ripping and beating on my head was worse than before great probably because I'm immortal.
Then I was pulled violently into a vision I was shaking already this one was bad I bit my lip to keep in the screams and then tasted blood.
It was dark I couldn't see anything but I felt something, pain unbearable pain and fear. Then I saw a girl a young girl run across the street to get a ball, her parents were talking on the porch while she was playing they weren't paying attention, in all my vision someone is never paying attention. Anyway then a car came down the road fast he was speeding and he smashed into the little girl half way through the street she screamed and then it was like I was being hit the impact was incredible the girl was thrown back like a rag doll and the jackass didn't stop just kept on going I could see shock on his face but he didn't stop. Asshole. The girl parents came rushing down crying and calling her name I was suffocating dying to be exact the girl couched of blood and the her heart stopped beating.
The rest was flashes like the beginnings and ends of my visions are the ends are more painful I saw EMT'S arriving and then a body bag, then the parent crying and saying no. then it was black again.
"Bella!" Charlie sounded frantic I was on the floor shaking and crying clutching my shirt from the pain, my lip was bleeding.
I breathed deeply three or four times, then stood up and said "I'm fine just a vision, hold on okay." I said it quickly and than ran outside.
"NO!" I screamed and ran toward the girl who was about to get run over by that car, I ran full speed and grabbed the girl and jumped out of the road to the other side just before the car could hit her. I breathed a sigh of relief and let the girl go.
"Are you okay?" I asked softly looking at the girl; she was in shock which was normal.
Then her parents came running down screaming and crying hysterically "Serena!"
"Oh thank god." The mother said and picked up the girl, then turned to me and said "Thank you so much you saved her life."
"It's fine really no big deal." I said simply to the parents and then turned to Serena and said "Good night Serena." Then nodded to the parents and walked quickly to my house. Great I thought now I will have even more attention tomorrow at school.
"H-how?" Charlie said shocked.
"I have visions of horrible things Charlie, you just witnessed it." I said simply and then added "Don't worry I am fine afterwards and I can control them more when I am in public I…Umm…I just feel at home here." I said a little shyly.
He smiled and hugged me tightly and said "I thought you were going to die Bella, I know that you're not my real daughter but I already love you like one."
I smiled and hugged him back, it felt really nice to hear that, I started crying I did think of him like my dad I mean I normally don't get attached to foster parents, but Charlie reminded me so much like my dad and I guess I love Charlie "Thank you I already love you too dad."
He kissed my forehead and said "It nice to hear you say that." The released me and went back to the game.
I smiled and said "Night dad." It felt so nice to call someone dad again, to actually say it to someone and mean it.
"Night Bells." He said and turned on the T.V I smiled again at the familiar sight and walked up stairs. Maybe forks won't be that bad after all.
I pulled out Jane Eyre and started reading, I loved to read at night actually I loved to read period. I wasn't really worried about tomorrow until I actually thought about what I would have to endure. School.
