TO THE STORY!

BPOV

We all waited patiently in the lounge room as Edward, Carlisle and Emmett were upstairs with Caterina.

"See anything?" I asked Alice nervously as she scanned the future.

"Nothing's clear, no one has made any decisions about anything," Alice said another blank stare appearing on her face.

"It's ok mum, I am sure every thing's going to be fine," Nessie smiled at me.

Carlisle had mentioned there was some thing wrong with Caterina, the way she didn't recognize we were vampires, surely she should have been able to tell by our scent. I was starting to really worry, this was Edward's sister.

"I got some thing," Alice said and every one turned anxiously awaiting her explanation.

"Caterina is going to be fine, I can even see her with golden eyes," Alice smiled and I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

I hugged Nessie in relief. Just as I was smiling I saw Alice have another vision. I pretended not to notice and she brushed it off and joined in the happy chatter in the room.

I would defiantly be sure to ask her about that later.

A few moments later Emmett came down the stairs and we all started throwing him questions about Caterina. After Jasper sent some calming waves through the room every one quieted down.

"As Alice has probably told you, she is going to be okay," Emmett said reassuring me.

"But as Carlisle suspected, she has a gift, and he has a theory on the talents that we get when we become a vampire, involving how people that are related have similar talents and your gifts are based around some thing from your past life. We all know Edward can read minds, and it seems Caterina being his sister has a very similar skill. Caterina can enter your mind and put thoughts in your head, very dangerous if not used for good," Emmett explained as I nodded taking it all in.

"So has she been using it for good then?" Alice asked frustrated that she couldn't see into the past like Claude, who was currently sitting at the back of the room.

"We don't know, because Caterina's gift has a side affect, well that's what Carlisle says. Sure she can enter your mind, but Caterina can't remember things for long unless she is constantly around it. Carlisle has been running some tests to prove this, but it seems she will be forgetting a lot of stuff," Emmett giggled towards the end as Rose shot him a 'don't you dare this is serious' look.

"Can I go see her?" I asked Emmett who shrugged.

"Why not? I guess we can all see her," he smiled and we followed him up the stairs into Edward's bedroom.

Caterina was sitting on his couch looking very confused. Carlisle was running all sorts of tests with various medical equipments that looked really scary.

"Is that a diamond drill?" I asked as I got a closer look.

"Do not fret my dear, now come over here and meet Caterina officially," Carlisle smiled.

"So you're my sister in law then! Edward has just gave me a little catch up talk about all you guys, but I think I will have to sit with you all later so you can fill me in properly. Oh, and you must be Alice, the pixie like one who loves to shop! And you're Rose, the… uh, well nice to meet you," Caterina smiled.

"Has she forgotten what you told her about Rose already?" I asked Edward.

Emmet cut in and answered for him, "No I think she was just being polite, she may have been warned about Rose."

Rose let out a low hiss and then took Emmett's hand and dragged him outside where I was almost certain he would be told off and probably would be punished with no sex for a month!

"Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend her, and you must be Jasper, can you do some thing to my feelings, I want to know what it feels like" Caterina giggled.

Jasper then sent some waves of excitement and surprise through the room and before we knew it we were all on a major high.

"Did you just say that?" Alice turned to Caterina halfway through our sudden burst of emotions.

"Yes, and you are very pretty!" Caterina squealed starting to clap, the excitement not quite wearing off yet.

"What do you mean did you say that?" I asked and Caterina started beaming at me.

"Take off your shield honey," Edward spoke to me and I did.

I am so glad I got to meet you, I finally have a family, you don't understand how long I have been searching for you guys, I think…., but that doesn't matter now, I have finally found you and Carlisle says I can stay with you for as long as I like! We're going to be like sisters, you can be the older sister I never had!

The thoughts ran through my head as if they were my own, but I knew it was Caterina. I quickly put my shield back on as an automatic response but then moved it again.

Anyways, I'm starving, I was coming to Seattle to hunt you know!

Caterina thought making me instantly form a crouch position and as I looked around the room Alice, Jasper and Esme were as well, it seems she sent that thought through every ones head. If there was one thing we were truly opposed to, it was hunting humans.

Don't worry! I am not going to hunt humans any more; I want to try your animal diet! I have been trying to find a way not to be a monster and you guys have thrown me a solution! I can't believe I have survived over two hundred years with out you; you have already helped me so much!

One by one we all got out of our crouch position. I looked at Caterina and realized how young she was, she was still a teenager. Her intentions seemed good, and she only used her putting thoughts in head thing for communication so far, maybe I could be the older sister she never had.

"Ok Carlisle, are we done here then? I think I want to show my new sister our way of hunting," I smiled at her.

Edward looked so proud at that moment, seeing Caterina and I deciding to bond together at last.

"Family hunting trip!" Emmett exclaimed and a burst of cheers erupted through the room, letting off the last of our excitement.

"Last one past the river's a rotten egg," Alice laughed as she jumped out the window.

"Let's go," I said taking Caterina's hand and we both jumped out together.

***

Later that night we were all in the lounge room again, well except for Alice, Rosalie and Caterina, who were in Alice's bedroom. When Caterina turned up she hadn't really had a sense of style so Alice and Rose saw it as an opportunity for their biggest make over yet.

I was lying on Edward's chest not really listening to what was on the television, but thinking about earlier that day. The hunting trip had gone well and it seems Caterina couldn't get enough of the elk.

Caterina was fitting right in. Although she was young, she was still about the same size as Alice, she had the same maturity level as Emmett, had small hands that really helped Rose to fix the cars, loved it when Jasper changed her emotions around, looked at Esme and Carlisle like parents, loved me like a sister already and of course had the same qualities as her brother. For being apart for so long they were so alike it was crazy! And the best part was she was even cool about Nessie and Jake and squealed in delight when she found out she had a niece.

I let off my shield and let Edward read all my thoughts. I looked up at him to find him smiling that half crooked smile of his. He lifted me closer to his face so he could kiss me on the lips.

"You're perfect you know," he whispered kissing me some more.

"How did I get so lucky to get you," I whispered kissing him back.

Instead of arguing about who was luckier like we usually did, we just enjoyed the moment kissing happily until some 'coughs' from Emmett clearly informed us to stop.

"Do you think Caterina will stay forever?" I asked and Edward nodded.

"She has no idea where she came from and basically has been roaming around for over two hundred years. I think she once came in contact with the Volturi, she remembers being scared but her thoughts are really foggy. Carlisle believes that with repeating things and having a permanent familiar surrounding, Caterina should remember us as long as we don't leave her for a long period of time," Edward explained.

"Well that's great to hear," I said relieved every thing was going to be okay.

Not long after our small conversation, Alice whizzed to the bottom of the stairs.

"Attention every one, I would like to present to you one beautiful bombshell from the windy city, that's right, I'm talking about Caterina Masen!" Alice squealed before turning to look towards to top of the stairs.

Caterina appeared at the top next to Rose, looking absolutely stunning. She was wearing a silky green halter neck dress which gathered at the front and came down to the floor. With her bronze hair the dress looked amazing. She wore some bronze colored hoop earrings with matching colored heels. Her hair hung in loose curls, the longest layers down to her waist and Alice had applied her make up in natural tones with a hint of green eye shadow above her eyes.

She was stunning.

"Caterina, you look beautiful," Esme gushed running up to give her a hug.

Soon every one followed with equally great compliments about how good she looked.

Caterina was beaming with excitement and Jasper burst out into a fit of laughter, unable to control the feelings Caterina was letting off.

"Guys, I already love you and I have known you for a little over a day, and if you let me I would be honored to be considered a Cullen," Caterina smiled.

"YES! INITIATION PARTY!" Emmett yelled.

"Initiation party?" I asked Edward who shrugged.

"Oh my gosh, yes! We can theme it and we can invite the Denali clan and the wolves…" Alice started already making plans.

Every one was laughing and jumping up and down, exhilarated.

She was having a good effect on us already.

NO CLIFFY!!! ARE YOU SHOCKED? I BET YOU ARE!!

So any one got any ideas for the themes for this "initiation party"
