A/N: Hey guys! More chapters on the way! Here you go

Bella P.O.V

Everyone was sitting in our house, chatting and laughing. The Denali's were upstairs packing; they had decided to leave early with all the drama and stuff. Rose and I were in my kitchen, me sitting on the counter, her sitting on top of the fridge. She was telling me a joke, which was really funny. I studied her as she spoke.

Rose was the kind of girl who didn't put up with shit people gave her. She turned around and chucked it in their faces. Her long blonde hair was up in a pony tail and her golden eyes swan and sparkled as she laughed. It made me feel really fucking self conscious. She was model type; exquisite and full of beauty. She radiated power, confidence, and hostility. I knew why Em loved her; she was perfect.

". . . . And then he jumped over the bridge yelling, "Peace hoes!"" She finished, bending over, clutching her stomach as she laughed. I felt my eyes fill with venom as I doubled over, not being able to control my giggles.

"Bella," she gasped.

". . . .y-ya?" I choked out.

"Your real chill, you know that?"

I looked at her curiously. Chill? Is that a good thing? I mean, ya, I'm a vampire but does she need to point out how cold I. . . . . . . Oh!

"Thanks Rose." I smiled.

Then, all chaos broke loose.

I heard the sounds of a loud boom from the forest. Rose and I jumped up simultaneously, and then we sprinted outside.

A figure stood in the middle of the yard. A fallen oak tree lay next to them. I realized it was a man. He had bleach white hair, as in WHITE. It was like pure, fallen snow. His eyes were blood red; not a burgundy, but like his hair, a bright color. He had on ripped jeans, black worn-in converse, and a tight, form fitting black long sleeved shirt. His hair, which was shoulder length, sat in a low ponytail on his neck. He had pearly white, pointed teeth. I knew this because he was smiling; his bushy but groomed, eyebrows made the smile look evil, like he had a dark secret.

Edward was in front of me instantly, as were the rest of the Cullen males to their females. The man before us just smirked, his eyebrow hitching up. Carlisle spoke first.

"Hello."

The man smiled and cocked his head to the side. He opened his mouth and his teeth glinted with the motion.

"Hey, Bella-Berry."

I froze.

No one . . . but one person . . . every had called me that. . except. . .

"Austin?"

His smile deepened and he held out his arms. I instantly jumped into them, melting.

"AUSTIN!"

He laughed as I pulled away and did a very good impression of Alice, hopped up on unicorns and butterflies. I squealed and we both started talking at once. We were interrupted by a obnoxious throat clearing.

I turned around and saw my family and friends looking very confused. Edward, on the other hand, looked pissed.

"Everyone, this is Austin. He was my best friend when I was human." I smiled. Edward relaxed a little but didn't change his stiff posture.

Austin smiled at everyone.

"Hey, what's up?" He asked calmly.

"Austin, this is Carlisle, Esme, Alice, Jasper, Emmett, and Rosalie Cullen. Those freaks over? They're my parents, for all intentions and purposes. Memo and Amy, by the way. The last clan on the left is Eleazar, Carmen, Tanya, Ariana, and Kate Denali. They are just visiting. And this," I grabbed Edward's hand and guided him up to Austin, "is my Edward." I pecked Edward on the cheek. Austin studied everyone, smiled, and then sized Edward up.

"You," he said after a minute, "will do. Just don't fuck up. I don't want to have to kill you." He sniffed indifferently. Edward let out a loud laugh and just shook his head.

"Little Belly wouldn't like that now would she?" A sickly sweet voice said. I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever, Tanya." I muttered, turning back to Austin.

Austin, however, glared over my shoulder at Tanya with the most death ridden hate.

"You….yes, you there…..I don't like you. So, stay away from me and my Bella-Berry, you two cent whore."

Tanya's mouth dropped open. Emmett, Jasper, and Emmett let out huge, deep laughs. Rose and Alice giggled. I just fist pounded my main man.

"So, Austin, any powers?" Carlisle asked politely.

"Yeah, I got this one thing….well; you'll just have to see."

Austin walked a few feet away, turned to face us, then winked at me. I smiled, not sure where this was going. He held his hands up, palms facing the sky, closed his eyes and bowed his head. He seemed to glow for a second, and then white-hot flames started shooting out of his hands. Everyone hissed; fire was a vampire's enemy. But he smirked and kept producing the flames. I gazed on in awe. He stopped and stared at us, obviously awaiting for our applause. I clapped loudly, and everyone else followed.

"You can control fire, you lucky bastard!" I yelled. He grinned.

" Yup. What about you?"

I explained everyone's powers, going into detail of course. He whistled when I showed him my power.

"Damn girl! You on fire! Well, hypothetically of course." He laughed.

After a couple of hours of catching up, I decided to ask him the one thing that kept bouncing around in the back of my mind.

"Austin? How did you become like this? Like a vampire?"
