Sorry if this chapter kinda sucks. I'm not that good in writing fight scenes, and I haven't writen a story in sooo long. I've been having writer's block, till I got an idea for this. Sorry that its also short compared to the rest. Well, I still hope you like it :D And SORRY SORRY SORRY Again! :D Please review, criticism, Comments, and suggestions are encouraged. I would love to hear what you think. oh, and thank you for all the people who still read my stories even though it takes me soo long to update. Again, writer's block, so if you have ideas for the stories, just leave it in the review box and I'll try my best to fit it in. Who knows, it could open my imagination to new directions for the story. :D

Scarlet's POV

It was morning, about 5am, and I walked downstairs knowing that just below these stairs, a bunch of vampires are waiting down there. The moment I reached the bottom of the staircase, all the vampires were just going about their regular business. Emmet was watching sports, which I'm betting, is pre-recorded since basketball games don't start this early. Alice is chatting with a girl -which I'm guessing is a vamp too- on the coach, and next to it, on the rug, is a boy, who's pretty muscular and very much asleep on that rug as if it were a bed. Edward, on the other hand, was in his studies, reading in that quiet room. I saw him there as I was walking through the hallway. On the other side, where the door was, I could smell food being cooked and I could hear the noise of the plates being set on the table. Alice, then looked up and smile at me, stood up, and walked towards me, and so did her friend.

"Good Morning, Scarlet! How was your sleep?" Alice said. I noticed how she was always so perky, and cheerful practically twenty-four seven, "This is Renesmee, but people call her Nessie"

"It's nice to finally meet you Scarlet. I'm in middle school, so you probably don't see me around campus. Oh, and the person sleeping on the rug is Jake." Nessie said

"The warewolf…yeah, I remember him from last time." Just then, Esme came in the room, wearing an apron.

"Scarlet, good, you're up. We made breakfast, come in and eat." She said with that warm motherly smile.

"I didn't know vampires eat food. Don't you like, drink blood?" I asked, as we walked to the dining room.

"Yeah, but we eat animal blood. We're quote end quote 'vegetarians'. The food's for you, and Jake."

"Yeah, speaking of Jake, I better wake him up." Nessie said, and walked to Jake to wake him up, while Alice and I headed to the dining room.

The table was filled with tons of food, food that I haven't even seen before, let alone tasted. For a family of vampires who don't eat human food, they sure can cook them. I sat on the nearest empty chair, and started taking some food. I didn't bother waiting for Jake, that's how hungry I was. Well, who could blame me, when I almost died yesterday? A near death experience can really make a girl hungry. I noticed Jake enter the room with Nessie. Jake headed straight to a chair to eat, and boy can HE eat, he was chomping everything in sight. And I thought I was hungry.

"Jake really eats a lot. Since he's a warewolf, when he uses up his energy, he eats a lot. Don't worry, you'll get used to it." I heard Bella's voice say from behind me. I looked at where the voice was coming from, and I saw Bella smiling at me. Her smile was so contagious, I couldn't help but smile back.

After I finished eating, I walked outside and saw Dr. Carlisle there. He told me to follow him into his office, and of course, I did. His office was pretty neat except for the piles of papers on his table. The entire room looked so business-y but gives off a peaceful atmosphere. He motioned me to sit on a chair in front of the table, while he sat on the one behind the desk.

"So, how are you feeling Scarlet?" Dr. Carlisle asked in a friendly manner. It's hard to believe that a guy with such an innocent face could be a blood-thirsty vampire.

"Feeling better. I think I can even go to school tomorrow." I replied.

"That's good to hear." He smiled, then his faced turned serious, "Now, what happened to you yesterday was very dangerous, and my family and I would like to help you. Edward and the rest will be keeping a close eye on you. We are going to find out who did this to you and put a stop to it."

"Not that I'm not grateful and all, but why are you helping me?"

"That's because we don't want anyone to get hurt again." Edward said, appearing out of nowhere. Whoa! I guess I'm still not used to their 'walking-at-the-speed-of-light" power.

SCHOOL. THE NEXT DAY

I was walking around the campus, and I could see people staring at me. Well, who wouldn't when you're being followed by six gorgeous vampires….err, humans.

"Why do we have to do this again?" I could her Rosalie say behind me. I just chose to ignore her. She may be a deadly vampire, but I have the power to burn her to crisps, not that I would…unless of course she was gonna kill me or something. Speaking of people killing me, when I get my hands on Dylan, I will seriously make him regret he ever met me. Anyway, I just kept on walking, ignoring the multiple stares, until I saw Miguel.

"Can you guys give us a moment?" I told the Cullens, and they obliged, but still sat two tables away from Miguel. I jogged up to him and sat down.

"Hey" I said coolly

"Hey, didn't see you at the dance. Where were you?"

"How are you sure I wasn't there?" I said, raising an eyebrow, "I mean, we were wearing masks"

"Yes, but at the last hour of the dance, everyone's masks were off, and you weren't there."

"Well, I had a headache, so I decided to go home early." I lied.

"I see…. Hey, you wanna meet me later at the _, say about…6 o'clock?"

"Sure." I answered, "Hey, I gotta go, I'll meet you later." And I grabbed by bag and stood up.

"So it's a date?" He called out, as I was walking.

"It's a date." I couldn't help but smile. I don't know how I feel about him, but I do know that the moment he said "date", I just had to smile. Okay, eww, I don't wanna turn into those hopeless romantics, especially over a date.

The rest of the day just passed by, until it was time to say goodbye to the Cullens, and time to say hello to magic lessons.

"Now, you have to focus and slowly mold the water into a bigger ball." The teacher said, "Good. Just keep focusing." I did as he said, as I saw the ball of water grow bigger and bigger. "Well done!" He praised.

"thanks" I said, "Uhm, I have a question. Can we study doing force fields today?" It would come in handy when I see that Dylan again. Ugh!

"Well, that's a little too advance for you're-"

"Look, I really need it okay? And I've been reading up on it."

"Why is it that you wanna learn this so badly." He asked. I guess the jig is up. I told him everything that happened, except for the vampire part.

"…And that's why I need it, in case that Dylan, or whoever his real name is, comes back to get me"

The teacher was still having second thoughts on this, but finally gave in and taught me. It was pretty hard. Like, have you ever tried focusing on something so much until your eyes start to hurt? Yeah, that's how it feels. Not to mention the power you have to exert to it. I feel so exhausted.

"Don't worry, if you keep practicing, you'll get used to using so much of your power." And with that, classes were done.

It was already five-thirty, so I took a quick shower and changed into my clothes (with a little magic). Hey, I didn't have time to change clothing again and again, so I just poofed from clothe to clothe, not that I was obsessed with this date or anything. I mean, it is just a guy. I better stop myself before I start blabbering on here. I chose to wear a long green t-shirt, a brown leather jacket, skinny jeans and chucks, just in case my friend Dylan comes dropping by. I drove to the restaurant, and saw him waiting for me at the entrance.

"Hey. Sorry I made you wait." I said, as I walked over to him.

"Don't worry about it. Actually, our table's not yet ready. They said they'll beep us when it's done."

"Oh, okay."

"So….you wanna walk around first?" He said with a smile.

"Sure" I shrugged and we both started walking.

We talked about a bunch of stuff from school to bands as we kept walking. I was actually having a good time, and even laughed here and there. Our conversation was cut when someone called my phone.

"Sorry, this'll be quick"

"Sure, no problem."

I walked a little further from him, just in case this was a "magical" call. I didn't want him to hear anything that could blow my magical cover. I flipped my phone open and saw that my dad was calling me.

"Hello?"

"Scarlet? Is that you?" He asked, in a worried tone.

"Noooo.. It's not me." I said sarcastically, trying to lighten the mood

"Scarlet, this is not the time." Whoa, who stole his jar of cookies? "Remember when you told your teacher that a guy named Dylan was trying to kill you?"

"Yeah."

"Well, Dylan is one of our men, and he was at your dance to protect you."

"So this means-"

"Yes, the real person trying to kill you is somewhere out there. Where are you right now? I'm getting Dylan to get you."

"I'm at the _"

"Okay, he's on his way" *beep*

Gosh, so it wasn't Dylan who tried to kill me at the dance, so who was it? Well, I guess I have to end this little 'date' before Miguel gets caught up in it.

"Hey, I'm sorry but I need to go." I said apologetically, and turned to face him.

"Aw… and I thought I'd let you eat the finest food before killing you." Wait a minute, what did he say?

"W-what?"

"Well, since you wanna skip the dinner, I guess I'll go straight to the killing part" He said smiling, but not the friendly smile he wore every day. No, this was an evil smile.

Then suddenly, he jumped to attack me. I managed to get out of the way, but barely and hit a tree. I made a fire ball and threw it at him. He dodged it right away, and decided to return the favor by throwing an energy ball at me. It hit me right in the gut. Ouch. Now, I was having a hard time standing. He threw another one, but I was able to block it with a force field around me. He kept throwing energy and fire balls, but nothing was penetrating it. Although, it wouldn't be too long till I completely run out of energy to maintain this force field, and when this force field is gone, along with my energy. I'm doomed.


So...what do you think? Okay? Bad? Good? well, hopefully not bad. PLease review! Thanks a bunch! :D
