DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING STEPHENIE MEYER DOES!

Elyza's Point Of View

They stand perfectly still, like permanent fixtures in the ground. I laugh at the look of complete terror and utter confusion on their faces.

I step into the sun so that they can see the way that my skin sparkles. We are even more the same now. She says my name and steps forward. I snarl, and she jumps back.

"I know you are not alone," I say. I stood by the small female and the large male without them even noticing. They may as well come out." Five figures slowly step out of the dark shadows.

"My dear brother," I say warmly to Jasper, not bothering to hide my smile. "Why did you always like that little brat best?"

Confusion settles over his countenance, and then the knowledge of who I am speaking of dawns on him. He begins to say something but I cut him off.

"Let me tell you my side of the story. When our dearest little sister left that day, a man came to the door. He was gorgeous, absolutely beautiful, and he said that he needed a drink. I let him in, and suddenly he attacked me. I almost escaped, when suddenly he bit my ankle. I screamed, and he jumped up and was gone. I was in so much pain that I didn't notice anything until three days later, and by that time I was completely changed. I was terrified and I couldn't find anyone, including Anna. So I followed her scent, now glaringly apparent to me. I always knew she was just waiting for something to happen so that she could leave. She took everything from me, including you. But now, I am strong. Stronger than her. I will have you back!"

I lunge.

"No!" he says, putting himself between her and me.

"Yes," I say. "And you will watch, and one day you will appreciate this." I glared at her.

"Did you write the notes?" one of the other females asked. I glanced at her.

"Yes. I enjoyed keeping you on edge," I admit. They look shaken. Anna looks at me.

"Elyza, I apologize for all of this. I didn't know…" Now we look straight into the other's eyes and I want her to feel my hate, my jealousy that she took my brother away from me, these feelings that have been building ever since she was born.

Her eyes widen, I realize that she does feel it. I smile, and try to make it stronger. She turns paler than she already is, she clutches his shoulder, she collapses. I laugh, and then it hits me.

I feel all of her regret and guilt from leaving me. I feel the sadness she felt at losing the only family she had left…no, no! I mustn't be overcome by this, I mustn't…
