I stared at my family, hoping I didn't scare them, but they all looked terrified.
"Bella," Edward said, walking towards me slowly, "Are you okay?"
I nodded my head, afraid to hear the beautiful voice that would just scare me. I walked over to the wall mirror slowly, and Jasper inched to my side, slowly, like he was defending everybody from a predator.
I noticed that, and stopped walking, backing into the corner slowly. He watched me like I was about to spring at him or Alice, but I could never do that.
Edward was glaring at Jasper, signaling him to back up, and stop. Jasper obeyed, and I slowly inched to the mirror once more, keeping an eye on the rest of the family.
I looked into the mirror at the beautiful vampire watching me, and I lightly stuck my hand out to the beautiful one that was me, but no matter how beautiful I thought I was, comparing me to Edward was still unbalanced.
"What happened?" A voice of bells that was also mine asked.
"The venom spread before I could get to you, and I'm sorry, Love," he said with sorrow in his voice.
I smiled to myself because I was finally a vampire; I could live forever with Edward.
I suddenly felt the burning in my throat that I had once prepared for, and moved my hand to my throat slowly. The family backed away, but Edward walked closer.
"You're thirsty, love," he said with a smile, "you need to hunt."
He grabbed my hand, and led me over to the window, pulling me out lightly. I landed lightly on my feet, and Edward smiled at me. He started to run, jumping over a river, and I followed him.
We ran through the trees as fast as lightning, surprising me by how easy it was not to run into a tree, or fall over a root.
I followed Edward till we were far away from civilization, and he went his own way and I went mine.
I followed the scent of a bear that was north about two miles, and Edward followed after he finished, watching me.
I was amazed by how easy it was to follow the scent, and how easy it was to find it.
The wind changed direction the next second, and I found a sweet scent blown into my face. Edward froze realizing the scent of the blood was human.
I took off, running, and Edward followed me. I ran, but I found control when I saw the person was Charlie, and Edward watched me look at Charlie, and not feel the pain of thirst, but the pain of missing him.
I sat there, and watch Charlie as he got in the police cruiser, and drove off. I sat there, and stared at my house, hoping Charlie would reappear.
Edward placed his hand on my shoulder, and lifted my from my crouch, hugging me.
I hugged back, and placed my head on his shoulder while he rubbed my back.
Moments later we headed back to the hunting spot we had been at, and I took down a deer, bear, and wolf, training my thirst.
We headed back to the house only to find the rest of the family gone, and no scent left behind of theirs.
I didn't recognize the only scent that was in the air, but Edward did, and he walked at vampire speed around the house catching to see when they left, and why, but he found nothing more than the only scent that was outside.
He grabbed my hand, and lead me through the forest, and before I knew it we were in the middle of the forest where we saw smoke coming up in the sky east by three miles.
Edward practically dragged me through the woods, and I was gladly not tripping over anything, but when we came to the clearing that we had to fight the newborns in we found one fire.
We looked up through the sky, and saw five other fires around the place, and we walked over to the fire we had found first.
I walked close to the fire, but I started feeling ill so I walked back a bit, and watched Edward.
After a moment of looking into the fire, shock registered on his face, shocking me by what I saw in the fire as well.
What I saw was a black robe, a foot, and a hand, burning in the fire. Fear tensed in all my muscles, and I couldn't move. I was locked in place by fear.
I was thinking of fleeing the scene, but I stayed because Edward was here, but the only problem was we didn't know if that was a Cullen in the fire or one of the Volturi.
It could have belonged to Alice or Jane, the girl in the Volturi. I hoped that it would be Jane because I didn't ever want to see her hurt Edward again. I had already seen it once, and suffered from it. It had been in my nightmares ever since, but I don't have to see it anymore because I don't sleep.
Suffering through nights filled with torment, and loss haunted me for a long time, but now they had become fuzzy. A lot of my memories had become fuzzy after my change, and some of those I was glad to forget.
I watched Edward as he stared into the sickening fire that made us both feel ill, and I was ready to leave, but before we could make a run for the rest of the fires, somebody stepped out from the forest, looking at me with deadly eyes. I stared back, and the deadly eyes ran my way, hands out, ready to kill me with a single touch, but I had to remember I was a newborn, and that I could easily take down one vampire. I just had to think that because more vampires stepped out from the forest behind the others, coming to kill me. I wouldn't make it. I would die beside my true love.
