Katherine's POV

20 years ago today was when it happened. I was seventeen and in Switzerland visiting my grandparents. My home was in France, but I often traveled to see my grandparents in Switzerland. This time I was there without my parents and brother. My brother and parents were at home, occupied with my brother's twins. I was 19, and they didn't need my help, so I left.

I was taking a walk and I saw the most beautiful woman ever. She had a couple other people with her and they were following her. I saw stupid and I followed. We went all the way to a small, deserted farm. There in the barn were four others just like her. Suddenly we were attacked.

The strangest thing was that they didn't kill me. They tied me up though. It was probably the only time I was grateful to be deaf… I couldn't hear the screams. What happened next is blurry, I barely remember anything. I do remember being taken to a strange place somewhere in Italy though; but then I was in pain and forgot mostly everything.

When I woke up they told me what I was and that they wanted me to serve them. I did serve them, for five years. It was mainly because I was scared and because they used the excuse that they gave me hearing. That made me stay. I even acted like them.

However, one day they told me about a small group that was coming for a visit. They told me how 'weird' they were. They told me that they drank the blood of animals, not humans. That lifestyle appealed to me. Before the group even came, I left. And so, I have wandered alone for 15 years, and now I believe I have found someone I can be with. But even if I can't be with him, at least I'm away from the Volturi.

Ethan's POV

Katherine is my life. I've only known her for 6 days and yet I feel I have a connection with her. We're at my house and she is sitting on the couch; I think she is concentrating really hard about something. Looking at her I can see my first impression of how she looked was wrong. I had thought her eyes were brown, but they aren't. In fact, they are golden.

Her hair is blond, but it is also bronze. The light makes it look differently. However, she is still just as beautiful as I at first believed. She is odd; she doesn't go in the sun. That day in art class, only her hair was in the sun. It wasn't even being shone on a lot because the sun was setting.

I don't care how odd she is though… because I think I am in love with her. I tilt my head and think about that. Could I really be in love with a girl I haven't known for even a week? Yes, you could, I tell myself.

"Ethan?" Katherine asks, "Can you tell me what you're thinking?" I look at her. She has sat up straight, as if she has decided something.

"It's embarrassing," I say.

"Just tell me, please."

"Well, I was thinking that I love you… but I don't know if loving you makes sense because I've only known you for six days. However, I don't think whether it makes sense or not actually matters because I do love you."

"You do?"

"I think so."

"Well… would you spend forever with me?" she asks and I wonder if she's talking about marriage. I think I would marry her one day, I really do.

"Yes," I say. She looks at me. And then she slides over. Usually she isn't touchy feely. It's another odd thing about her that I happen to really like. However she touches my face and tilts her head to the side. Then she smiles and kisses me.

"Please don't hate me," she says. She straddles me and puts her head near my neck.

"Katherine, what are you doing?" I ask.

"I'm making us able to live forever with each other," she says. Then she bites me. It surprises me at first. I feel her sucking at my neck but then she stops and says, "Don't kill him, Katherine."

Then she bites other parts of me. As she does, I feel pain all over myself. I feel like I'm being torn open and like I'm going to die. I wonder if I'll even live another day with her.

Edward's POV

Ella looks like her mother. She has been handling this well. Noah told her everything while they hunted and she accepted it. Carlisle has been working with her to figure out what her power is.

What we have figured is that she can turn off all powers; usually, only one person's power at a time. But a few times she has turned off all of our power. Carlisle thinks it is amazing; yet he also thinks that if the Volturi hears about her it won't be long before they show upA.

Alice's POV

"Ella, stop it!" I yelled. She had turned off my power again. It annoyed me, yet I was proud of her.

"Sorry, Alice!" she yelled and suddenly I could see again.

"Give her a break Alice she's still learning!" Noah yelled.

"Oh shut up!" I yell back.

"All of you shut up and stop yelling!" Esme shouts. It's funny and we all laugh; but then I have a vision…

A tall man with hair the same color as Ella's and a short woman, who actually looks a bit like Carly are coming up the drive way. The man is a newborn, the woman is not. They walk onto the porch and ring the bell. Ella answers the door; and her eyes widen…

"Ella!" I yell; she has turned off my power again.

"Sorry, I got distracted…" she says, "Noah… stop it!" I hear laughter and I roll my eyes. Those two lovebirds are ridiculous.

I have my power back but the vision is gone. I don't know what to do. I don't know who those people were.

"Carlisle!" I yell.

"Stop yelling, Alice!" Esme shouts.

"Hypocrite!" I shout back; I hear her laugh and know I'm not in trouble. Then Carlisle is next to me on the couch.

"I think the Volturi might be coming," I tell him.

"Are you sure?" he asks me.

"No, but I saw a vision of two people I have never seen. So, they could've been sent by the Volturi… we should be prepared."

"When do you think they'll get here?"

"Tomorrow; at night probably… what do we do Carlisle?"

"How many?"

"Two, a man and woman."

"Than we stay here," he says and then he gets up and goes to talk to Esme. Everyone is quiet; I know they heard our conversation.


So, how many actually thought Katherine was a vampire? I wasn't going to have her be a vampire at first but then I figured I would. Anyways… how do you all think the two people are? It's kind of obvious who they are going to be, but try and guess. Please review… a lot of reviews = faster update.
