Chapter 9

I had just finished unpacking my stuff in my new apartment, I got in my car and headed toward school, I knew exactly how this was going to be, I was going to be on everyone's mind, I was going to be the outcast, I was going to be one of the only people who were not born and raised in this small town, I was going to have to work for friendships and I was going to love the challenge. As I was driving I suddenly got the scent of vampire, which was weird but a few moments later I realized the scent was not one vampire it was six! Six vampires and as I sensed further they were at my school, they were waiting for me, I suddenly felt fair, I knew I could take on one vampire and depending on their strength I could take on two but there was no way I could take on six.

I drove further thinking about what I could do, well we were going to be in public, so they might not attack, but just incase they did I was preparing myself to scream, not that that would help me. I drove up to the school and there they were all six of them waiting for me, it was as if they knew I was coming. I drove to the furthest side of the parking lot from them and parked my BMW, I waited a few seconds then I got out, I slowly walked toward them.

"Its ok, we are not here to hurt you." The one standing in front with the blond hair said to me.

"Then why are you here?" I asked with a low and steady voice.

"Because we have been residing in this town for two years now, and we have managed to keep our secret, we are vegetarians, we do not kill humans. We do not expect you to live that way because you are here but we would like you to keep your hunting moderate and discreet. We would also like a truce, we know that our type is very territorial but we have no problems living in the same town as you so we would like to have peace, and since you and my children are going to be in the same school we need to keep up pretenses." He had a very gentle voice and it sounded like he meant what he said.

"If that is the reason you are confronting me then rest assured, I do not kill humans, because of circumstances in my past I was trained to live off of animals and I still do, I have never drank the blood of a human and I don't plan to. And as for territorial, I do not care if you live in the same town as I do and I do not care if we will be going to the same school, as long as my safety is not threatened by you I will have no reason to bother you." As I walked I looked at him he seemed to be in a young body and he was good looking more than the usual vampire, I looked away and that is when I saw him. Someone I never thought I would ever see, someone I thought was dead, the person that I had loved all those years ago and still loved. I saw Edward, my Edward. I came to a dead stop and stared at him with disbelief, I was speechless, and they all stared at me all except him he stared at the ground.

"So what's your name?" The one with the black long hair asked me.

"Amilia Harlow and yours?" I answered still in shock; Edward still didn't look at me, I thought that mentioning my name would get his attention but it didn't.

"Well my name is Alice, this is my 'father' Carlisle" she did quotations with her hands and pointed at the blond who spoke to me earlier.

"It is nice to meet you Amilia." He said giving me a warm smile

"Likewise Carlisle."

"This is my older sister Emily-Rose, but just call her Rose." Alice pointed at the blond female who stood there observing her nails.

"Hi," was all she said to me.

"She is always quiet so don't worry; this is her mate and my older brother Emmet." She pointed at the large one with curly brown hair.

"Hi, how good are you at wrestling? Do you want to give it a try sometime?" he asked me, I wasn't sure if he meant that literally or if he made a pass at me

"Umm, I don't think so but it's nice to meet you Emmet." That was the best thing I could think to say.

"This is my mate Jasper." She pointed at the other guy with blond hair.

"Hi, it's nice to meet you Amilia, and please there is no need to feel so anxious." He said and suddenly a wave of calm came over me.

"Uhh what just happened?"

"Jasper has the ability to feel and alter people emotions, so technically he feels exactly what you feel and he just sent a wave of calm over everyone." Alice explained, while holding on to Jasper's hand.

"Apparently it didn't work for some people." He said looking back at Edward.

"Oh of coarse, this is my other brother Edward." She pointed at Edward and finally he looked up at me.

"Hi Edward" I said expecting him to go into shock from seeing me.

"How do you do that? Why can't I hear what you're thinking?" he looked at me frustrated. That wasn't the response I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting to see him alive and well considering a hundred and six years ago I heard he had died. He probably eventually went back to Ipswich and heard that I disappeared.

"Huh?" I asked dumbfounded, I didn't know what to say, I didn't know if I should bring up the past or let him bring it up.

"My power is to read minds but I can't read yours."

"Oh, well one of my powers is psychic immunity, technically, no one can alter or reach my mind in anyway, its like a locked vault that only I can access, my other power is telekinesis. So yeah…" he gave me the same look Jane gave me when I told her that her power couldn't work on me, it was a mixture of anger, disgust and confusion.

"I can't read your mind because your immune to me?" he sounded really annoyed.

"Well yea…" Now he was just annoying me, why the hell was he stalling? Suddenly a human with long straight brown hair started walking toward us; I had barely noticed when she pulled up in her Chevrolet Pickup Truck.

"Hey guys!" she said smiling at them. "Ooh you must be the new student!!! Hi my name is Isabella, but please call me Bella; it's very nice to meet you." (Yes Its Bella!!!! All of you out there obviously thought it would be better if I added Bella so I reconsidered and added her in there, Surprise!!!!)

"Hello my name is Amilia; it is nice to meet you Bella." I said smiling politely.

"So you're the new vampire, it's always nice to know that some vampires don't want to kill me, you don't want to kill me right?" Oh My GOD!!!! How did she know? How did this insignificant human know, now I had to kill her!

"How can you tell, wait scratch that, how do you know, no scratch that too, who else knows, never mind, you know what, I think I have to kill you!" I babbled; I had never faced a human that knew my secret except for Phillip and that didn't work very well. That's when I heard a growl.

"You will not touch her" Edward was by Bella's side within seconds shielding her from me. In fact all the vampires looked at me with threatened expressions.

"Wait your protecting the human? But she knows about us! We have to kill her! She knows far too much, and what if the Volturi finds out?!" I was confused, how were they so calm about our secret being known, weren't they the ones that just told me they wanted to stay discreet?

"She is not a threat to us; we are the ones that told her. She is my mate, and I am planning to change her, as soon as we are married." Edward hissed at me, Bella just stood there silent.

"Ooh, she is your mate…" I whispered, no wonder he didn't want to know why I was alive, I was about to brake up his relationship. He didn't want me here.

"I am sorry, will you please excuse me for being so rude." I asked the pathetic human.

"Of coarse it's ok, as long as you don't try to kill me." She smiled. "So how do you live among humans and still hunt them?"

"I don't, I'm a vegetarian." I answered, looking down.

"Really I thought vegetarian vampires were rare." She said walking over to me and shaking my hand.

"Which reminds me," Carlisle said walking toward me, "How did you become a vegetarian?"

"Well it sort of a long story, but the clip note version is: The vampire who changed me wanted me to become his eternal mate, while the transformation was taking place some priest saw him carrying me, and I'm not sure how but he chased away the vampire and kept me, his intentions were to kill me but he never did, you see he was a corrupt priest and he wanted to keep me for my beauty and for whatever fraud I could help him commit. He kept me locked up for a few years only feeding me animal blood, so I had no chance to fed off humans, I've never actually tasted human blood. I don't really see the necessity, animal blood is easier to get, and more humane to drink. So after the thirty years I spend with him I just kept the no human diet."

"Wow!" Rose suddenly said. Everyone abruptly looked at her, including me. "So he used you to commit Fraud?"

"Yes, and he umm well he also raped me, on several occasions." I said remembering all those hurtful memories that I tried so hard to forget.

"Well I know how you feel, when I was human, on my way home one night my fiancé and his friends raped me and left me In the street to die, that is actually when Carlisle found me and changed me." Rose said. Everyone was shocked at her sudden honesty.

"Wow, well that must have been really hard for you." I said sympathizing with her.

"It was but I got my revenge, I hunted them down and killed them one by one, but of course I left my fiancé for last and made his death the most painful."

"Nice!" I said smiling at her

"Yea I quite enjoyed it." She smiled back at me. Everyone was looking from her to me with shocked expressions.

"Well I would love to stay here but it is getting late and I need to find the main office so that I could check in by the secretary."

"Oh well let me show you the way." Rose said, walking over to me and intertwining our hands as if we were best friends. I wondered why Alice said she was always quiet, she seemed like a fun outgoing person to me. And I had a feeling we were going to be best friends. We walked into the main office and the secretary looked at us, her eyes widened as she saw me with Rose.

"Ms. Hale I see you are escorting our new student umm…" she said obviously not knowing what my name was

"Amilia" she corrected the young woman

"Right Amilia Harley is that correct?"

"Actually its Harlow" I corrected, never in my 123 years had anyone ever mixed my name up with a type of motorcycle. What was this world coming to?

"Yes, well here is your schedule and here is a map of the school. Take this form and let all your teachers sign it." She said handing me some papers. "Your first class is Advanced Algebra with Mr. Ferguson. Would you like me to escort you?" she asked

"No I will escort her." Rose said smiling politely at the woman.

"Ok well I hope you like it here in forks!"

"Thank you, and I'm beginning to." I and Rose walked out of the main office holding hands and smiling at each other. Luckily we had the same first class. The bell rang and we rushed to class running and giggling for no reason, I don't know why but me and Rose had some sort of connection, it was obvious we both felt it.

We walked into class as everyone was taking their seat; everyone stared at us including the teacher.

"Everyone this is Amilia Harlow, Mr. Ferguson will you please sign her attendance slip? Thank you." Rose said to the whole class, everyone was in shock, apparently hearing her speaking could put anyone in shock.

"Umm Ok." The teacher said he took the paper from me and signed it. "Amilia I hope you feel welcomed here in Forks, I know this is Advanced Algebra so if you can't keep up just tell me and I will put you back to the juniors level of Algebra." He said, handing me back the slip.

"Ok, if I can't keep up, I will let you know." I had to smile at that one, me not keep up in high school algebra, Ha that was funny, I could teach this class probably better than he could, but I didn't say anything else.

Me and Rose took seats next to each other and started a little round of twenty questions. Of course no one could hear us so we chatted throughout the whole class.

Sooo what did you think? I bet I surprised all of you, I did didn't I, ooh you know I did, there was absolutely no hints leading up to this, in fact I only decided to put Bella when I was typing the sentence before she came in, of coarse this means I will have to change my plot again, but I don't mind, I never really planned what was going to happen after Amilia and Edward met back up. So I even surprised myself. Lol

Anyway I hope you enjoyed this chapter. And I will try to update soon.
