Alice in the beginning
HUNTING.
I'd been walking through woods for months on end, at one stage I'd come by a village but I held my breath and ran and there was no harm done. Jasper was the same as ever but Rose was now in a steady relationship with Royce King. I had seen nothing of the other two men so me and Jaspers fate must have changed direction. Not that that mattered much so long as we were together. Jaspers eyes had been black for about two weeks now and I was getting worried about him . His strong musculer frame looked weak and he had dark circles under his eyes. I loved him so much and wanted to be there for him but how could I, I'd go out to the shops and get a job somewhere cloudy after a year or so, possibly Ireland, I'd also have to save up for a ticket back to the US if I did that though so maybe I shouldn't. I'd find a cold wet place in America yet.
I hadn't seen my reflection in ages. I probably just looked the same but even more ragged but I wanted to see my reflection anyway. I'd check it in a lake or something. I could smell water around but it smelled completely unapetising to me. I had hunted yesterday so I was not thirsty. I ran in the direction of the water. When I reached the lake side I looked into the water and was taken aback by what I saw. My eyes, which were a bright red last time I saw myself, were now a beautiful golden brown colour. I was delighted. Now I could go out without people questioning my red eyes. My throat no longer burned often so maybe I was nearly ready to go out into the world now. It was nearly always raining here and maybe I could find a town around here, not yet but maybe after a few more weeks. I could find a town and stay around it until I was ready to live there.
Two days had past since I had noticed the difference in my eye colour. I didn't want to hunt in case my eyes changed colour again. They seemed to be getting darker they were a fairly deep brown colour now and turning the same colour Jaspers black eyes rapidly. I didn't want black eyes but I'd prefer them to the creepy red ones I used to have. There was a dry itching in the back of my throat and I knew I had to hunt, I just didn't want to.
I was standing in the middle of the woods letting all the different scents fill my nose. I smelt a small group of deer about half a mile north of where I was standing. They were standing at the lake that I'd seen my reflection in, drinking. There scent wasn't special, it was tangy and it was fresh blood but it wasn't great. I smelt a different scent further to the west, it wasn't human but it smelt alot more appetising than elk or deer. I followed the sharp, tangy, rich scent. About a mile west I saw it. It was a large mountain lion. It's golden fur shone under the fading light of the sun. He was searching for his prey too. I knew I'd win the fight despite not having hunted a mountain lion before but I decided to have a bit of fun with this one. I jumped out of the tree I was watching from and landed neatly in front of the mountain lion. He diverted his concentration away from his prey and onto me. He growled and I growled back. He pounced, I saw it coming and took a quick step back. I was now looking into his dark cat like eyes. He crouched, about to pounce. I saw it coming and jumped over him. He spun around and went to scratch me. I moved quickly out of his reach and scratched him back. I realised the mistake I'd made as soon as I had made it. Blood was pumping out of the wound so I broke his neck quickly and rushed over to where the blood rushed out of him. I sucked every last drop out of him then feeling full, sat down on the ground beside the empty animal, disappointment that my game was over. My clothes didn't even have a spot of blood on them, I was a neat eater.
I went to the lake to check my reflection in the water. I was delighted to find my eyes an even lighter gold than the first time I checked. They were now a pretty, liquid gold colour. I laughed. I thought huntingwould turn them back to red but they looked even nicer than before. I laughed again and sat down on the bank of the lake and tried to have a vision of Jasper but instead it was Rosalie. I was having alot of visions about her lately but I could usually have a vision of Jasper whenever I wanted without being interrupted by Rosalie, not this time I guess. I suppose Jasper will have to wait. Royce had now started bringing lilies to Rosalie because her middle name was Lillian. They were courting now as well and had been for about two months. They were walking around Royces large grounds holding hands. They sat down on a bench and Royce pulled out a large bouquet of lilies and Roses. He got down on one knee and pulled out an extravagant wedding ring and said "Rosalie Lillian Hale, I have asked your fathers permision and he has given his consent. I love you and I shall cherish you for as long as we both shall live, will you marry me?". "Yes, yes of course I will" Rosalie squealed and Royce pulled her close and kissed her sweetly.
I lay back on the damp grass annoyed. Rosalie had everything I wanted. She had someone shel loved and was soon going to marry him! I was going to have a vision of Jasper now and if this one ends up about Rosalie I'm going to purposely wake myself up and try again. I closed my eyes and this time managed to have a vision of Jasper. He was hunting. He was in a small village and he was standing outside a small hut. He knocked on the door and a girl who looked about fifteen answered. "Hello miss" he said in a smoth southern accent. "What do you want sir" asked the girl sounding flirty. "I don't know yet, would you like to come for a walk with me?" Jasper asked in a sweet, gentle yet not quite flirty voice. "Sure" she said, she yelled "Mom I'm going out" took Jaspers hand and walked out the door. Jasper looked town at their entwined hands and coughed. The girl took no notice so he said "Excuse me but may I have my hand back". "I have to warm up your hand, it's freezing" she replied. Jasper pulled his hand out of her grasp and shoved it in his pocket. She looked hurt but hid it. "Where are we going?" she asked. "To the woods, by the lake, it's really beautiful there" he answered. She smiled at him and he smiled back with dark black eyes. When they reached the lake he sat down and the girl coppied. He took her hands and bent in closer to her. She giggled and in one quick movement he had bitten her. When he had sucked her dry he disposed of her in the lake and ran into the woods.
I sat up shocked. He had made her feel special. He had made her feel wanted and then he just killed her like she was something worthless. I was shocked but I still loved him. I'd always love him. I started thinking about my living with humans. I'd try and get a job. I loved the idea of new clothes so perhaps I could do something involving fasion. I loved thinking about what I'd where if I could where anything. I decided on a yellow dress with white spots a little white belt, a white bag and white stilletos like the ones I'd once saw in a magazine on the ground on the edge of a wood I was in a few weeks ago. It was a really pretty outfit and I had kept that magazine even after reading it about fifty times just so I could look at the clothes in it. I loved another outfit as well, it was a pair of jeans and a cute sparkly silver top with silver stilletos. Stilletos would give me height and I needed height and plenty of it. I was tiny. But I didn't care that much. I could live like that and Jasper will love me like this, I hope. I could find Jasper someday and he might not want me. He might reject me and if that happened I would deal with it. And I would deal with it because I would be able to say that I'd tried everything I could to find him. Sure my reason for living would be over but I'd find another reason to live. I smiled to myself because I knew he would love me, for me and I knew that I would love him for him, whether he wanted to kill innocent people, or not.
