As requested by a certain impatient friend (just kidding you know who you are) here is Chapter six of New Dawn. Nothing has changed, I still don't own Twilight and I never will. Enjoy!
Chapter Six
I nodded. "Thank you." I walked up the stairs and entered the first door I found. This bedroom had a sense of emptiness. It had to be one of the spares. I collapsed on the bed and wished for the hundredth time that I could sleep. A strange pricking sensation bothered my eyes and I wished that I could cry. I wished I was human.
I pretty much kept to myself in the bedroom. Alice popped in every morning to bring me a new set of clothes. Somehow even after two weeks of the routine, I never worse the same clothes twice. Now I understood why she wanted to have another girl to go shopping with. I doubted Blondie would want to go shopping with Tinkerbell. I rarely saw Edward, or Lover boy, as I had come to call him in my head. Tinkerbell told me he was spending more time with Bella. At least he wasn't here with her.
It was two weeks before anyone remembered that I was younger than them and I needed to hunt more often. My eyes were already black with thirst, but I refused to complain, even though the burning in my throat frequently interrupted my usual thoughts.
A loud knock echoed through my room and interrupted my unusually dark thoughts. I sighed, pulling myself to my feet and answered the door. It was Lover Boy.
"What do you want?" I asked in a voice harsh from my thirst. I didn't care if I was rude, I couldn't think about anything but my thirst.
He ignored my rudeness. "I came to see if you wanted to go hunting."
"Why aren't you with your little girlfriend?"
"Carlisle asked me to take you hunting since I have the most experience in resisting human blood, he thought it would be good for me to have a talk with you."
"Fine," I growled, too thirsty to protest. Even the tiny traces of human scent on his coat made my throat burn with flames.
Edward turned without answer and led me out of the house. I didn't see any of the others around, but I could smell that they were nearby. It took everything I had to follow Edward when we walked outside and the human scent covering his car drifted towards me. The allure of human blood was so strong.
No. I will not touch another human for as long as I exist. If Lover Boy can do it then so can I.
He burst into a run as soon as we reached the woods. He seemed to know exactly where he was going though I was moving too fast to recognize any parts of the forest flashing by.
He slammed to a stop in a little clearing. This was where my new life had begun and where so many lives had ended.
I dropped into a hunting crouch and left him alone. If he wasn't going to pay attention to me, I wasn't going to pay any attention to him. I knew that he followed at a safe distance, but I put the matter out of my mind and concentrated on the scent of the lone buck pulling me forward. I leapt onto his back easily and his weight collapsed underneath me as his back broke.
Once I finished, I stood up again and smelled the air. I couldn't catch the scent of any more animals in range, but my throat continued to burn.
"I'm still thirsty!" I yelled to Edward as if it was all his fault.
"There's another herd of deer a couple miles away." He ran through the woods, leading me again. I hated my dependency on Lover Boy, but my thirst was overriding my usual feelings towards the Cullens.
As soon as I caught the scent, I dropped back into a crouch and brought down the largest doe. I didn't notice that Lover Boy had disappeared until I had finished with the deer.
Good riddance. I decided to leave him here in the woods. Serve him right if he lost me. I followed our scent as I ran through the woods, enjoying the way my feet barely touched the ground before lifting off again. It almost felt like I was flying.
I jerked to a stop as a scent filled my nostrils. A human scent.
Uh oh! What's Bree going to do? Drop me a review, it makes me write faster! I plan to start chapter seven tonight, but I probably won't finish it.
