Irene's POV

I blinked open my eyes, sitting up. I was in a large room, I saw my two brothers next to me; they were screaming and writhing in agony. The events of the other day flooded back into my mind, of us coming to these vampires and asking for immortality.

I remembered my sister and mother inside our house, trapped. I would have saved them if I could. I hadn't wanted immortality because I had nowhere to go, I wanted immortality to get revenge on the person that I saw set fire to our home.

The memory of my sister and mother were stronger then I had expected. My mother had been screaming as the fire burned her I watched as my baby sister, Shayla cried out and ran into the fire trying to save mother. We had tried to stop the yellow-green eyed child but she was already burning and I remembered crying as I saw the gorgeous girl with the yellow-green eyes and red curls die before me.

We had never known where the girl got her eyes and my mother knew that it had to come from my dad's side. My father was 34 and had got our mom pregnant with Carlos at age 13, he had gotten her pregnant again with Shakir at age 15 and at again at age 17 with me. They had gotten married a year later and had Shayla on his 28th birthday.

I ran through a few of my memories of discovering that my brother had gotten a girl pregnant with twins. He was in his twenties when he did so but he refused to marry her and broke her heart while doing so. Then a memory swamped over me of my three best friends, Madisyn, Ella and Alyssa.

Madisyn's bright ideas had gotten us into trouble and I remembered the night that she and I had snuck out to go on a joy ride. She had just got her license and we wrecked her new car. We had laughed it off and she was grounded for 2 weeks, one for sneaking out and the other for crashing the car.

Ella and I had one wild adventure in our short 2 year friendship. We had made a bet that she and I could not spend one night in an old house that everyone said was haunted. We spent all night in that house until Madisyn came to tell us that we won the bet, we lost it then and attacked her, punching her and screaming 'Die she-devil Die!' I giggled and then thought of Alyssa, she was the calm one and never got in trouble. They were a bit fuzzy memories and were hard to remember how they looked.

"I see you have woken." The voice scared me, and then I looked up and saw a bleach blonde girl with ruby red eyes, a fellow vampire?

"Come with me." She said and I got up quickly, at vampire speed. We hurried to a large room where I saw a gorgeous girl in front of me and I remembered her barely, Steffa! She was different now though, was she pregnant?

"Eleazar has read her powers during transformation?" Her voice drifted from her lips.

"Yes, he has."

"Well?" She said tapping her foot.

"Well, he said that she has the power to read and speak any language."

"Excellent, Corin! Take her to her room and I will send a few people up there to meet her or you can send her there by herself."

"I think I'll send her by herself." Corin said with a grin.

"Suite yourself, Corin." Steffa said with a grin.

"I always do, Steffa." Corin said, with a cocky air to her.

She led me out the door and I looked at her as she sent me off to find my own room. I knew it wasn't on this floor because I could tell they were all full, I took an elevator up to the next floor and smelled dust in one of the rooms, I drifted down the hallway. I finally walked into a room; it had my name plate on it and had a bed with a couch, TV, a lot of music and a sterio.

I gasped at the room, it was beautiful. I walked over to the sterio pulled some of the CDs out of their package and found my favorite band, Wildfire.

I skimmed through the listing of songs and found my favorite, changing the number until it was on #3.

"Hell yea! Life is gonna fly by. Hell yea. My world is gonna change. Hell yea. I am gonna sing. Hell yea. Our world is gonna fly by." I sang along until a knock at the door interrupted me. I jumped over, opening the door.

"Hi." A handsome brown-haired Romeo stood in front of me.

"Hi." I said back, breathless.

"Is that Wildfire?" He asked.

"Yea, it's my favorite band." I responded back, still in shock at his beauty.

"I thought me and Jane were the only ones that liked Wildfire." He said walking in.

"Who are you?"

"Oh, sorry for not introducing myself, I am Alec."

"I'm Irene and who is Jane?" I asked, curiously.

"Jane is my sister. She isn't here right now; she is on a special mission."

"Oh" I said, thankful that it wasn't his mate.

"What album is this? I haven't heard it before." Alec said, looking at me.

"I think it might be Album number 2, just released." I said.

"Oh, cool. Maybe I should get it." He said, grinning.

"Maybe you should." I said, smiling. It was silence after that as we both absorbed the music. It ended after a while.

"That last song, it wasn't a normal Wildfire song." Alec said.

"It wasn't." I said with a smile.

"Who was that person singing with Darth?" He asked.

"Well how can I tell you this without you freaking out? It was my mother." I remembered her voice perfectly and how thrilled she had been when she got a phone call from Darth.

"No way, your mom sung with THE Darth!" Alec screeched.

"Yup, it is pretty awesome that everyone got to hear my mom's gorgeous voice before she died." I said, venom tears forming in my eyes.

"I'm sorry, Irene." Alec said, walking over.

"It's ok, it gets to me at times, and I miss her so much. I am pretty sure my father has probably remarried; he never really loved my mother. He just stayed with her since he had 4 kids with her." I said, letting the venom run down my face.

"I'm so sorry to hear that, Irene." He said, giving me a hug.

"It's ok; life will get easier as it goes on. I will never age and one day I might be able to adopt a kid or something." I said with a sad grin on my face.

"It's true, life goes on." He said and hugged me again.

"Alec, can you just leave? I need time to think." I said.

"Of course, Irene." He said and left.

I sat there, venom tears spilling down my face when I saw Steffa walk in the room. "Irene, I just had a vision."

"What do you mean a vision?" I asked, curiously.

"I had a vision that your sister didn't die." She said, sending me into almost complete shock.

"What do you mean? I watched her burn!" I gasped.

"I think that she has a secret that we didn't know." Steffa said, slowly.

"What kind of secret?" I asked.

"Well I think that she may have known what was about to happen. She knew that your mom was gonna die and I think she may have run into flames because they couldn't hurt her."

"What? How could flames not hurt her?" I screeched at the top of my lungs.

"Irene, there is a reason that I came to this conclusion when I had my vision I saw her eyes and how she reacted to the fire, she walked right in. She wasn't scared, she seemed almost confident."

"I don't know but how?"

"That I do not know but I do know that your sister is either alive or about to be reborn again." Steffa said.

"What do mean?"

"Well I have heard of a creature that can die and be reborn. The only person that will know is a vampire close to someone of her former life; this person has to have visions. This person is me and the close one to her is you." I gasped at her words, it didn't explain this though! My sister meant the world to me, how could she be reborn and if she was where would I find her?

"Irene, are you ok?" Steffa's soft voice broke through my thoughts.

"Just overwhelmed, my sister might be born to someone I don't even know!" I said, almost losing it.

"Irene, do you want to search for your sister?"

"Yes but I know that she might just die again." I said, tears already welling in the corner of my eyes.

"She won't if we find her fast enough we can bring her here and you can raise her until she is old enough to be a vampire."

"She would be eaten." I said, simply.

"Irene, you are her protector, you know what you want." Steffa said.

"Will you guys switch to animals?" I asked.

"If that is what it takes." She said.

"Thank you, Steffa." I said and hugged her, venom tears spilling down my face.

"Is there something your brothers would want? I want them to be happy in this coven."

"Well I remember that Carlos was with a girl named Danielle for a while, they were in love but then she got pregnant with his children. It shocked him so bad and they broke up, I know he still loves her. Shakir is another story, he was in love with a girl named Lizzy, and she would be 21 now, 3 years older than him. They broke up for this reason and she got married at 17 and has 5 kids and is a model in New York. He still loves her with all his heart and I can't stand to see him in pain." I said, almost breaking into tears.

"I understand. Is there something you want more than your sister? More than revenge on who condemned them to death? Maybe someone you miss." She asked, gently.

"Well I miss my best friends, Madisyn, Alyssa and Ella. They were the three people that knew everything about me." I said, grinning at the memory of them.

"Do you want to find them?" She asked.

"More than anything but they can't be changed unless they want to be." I said, calmly.

"Of course, Irene" She said, blinking at me.

"Thank you, Steffa. My world and my brother's need help."

"I know, Irene. Looks like I will have to call my ex-boyfriend and get him to track down Lizzy. You guys are from Wisconsin right?"

"Yea"

"Ok, I'll track down Danielle, Ella, Madisyn and Alyssa. You guys will go and see them, separately." She said with a large smile.

"Thank you, Steffa. You have no idea how much this means to me." I said, venom tears falling down my face.

"I do, I do know." She said and walked out of the room.

I sat there, deep in thought when a guy walked through my door, not even knocking.

"Hi, I'm Jay." He said grinning, leaning on the couch. He had raven black hair and was very thin, like abnormal thin for a guy. He had a goofy grin and his pale skin looked even better with his red natural lips.

"I'm Irene." I said, grinning.

"Yeah, I know who you are. I awoke yesterday. I am the other newborn in this crazy coven. I know you have met Alec, he is pretty cool but you and I are probably the only ones that think that." He said laughing. It was a gorgeous sound.

"Why are we the only ones that probably think it?" I asked, curiously.

"You don't know of his power?" Jay said, in pretty much shock. I shook my head no.

"Well him and his sister were often referred to the Witch Twins because of their past, being accused of being witches and all that. Their powers just made it worse, he has the power to make anybody's senses numb and they are completely gone. Jane was the opposite however and you probably would call her the more sadistic of the two. She has the power to inflict a feeling of burning on anyone, she hated everyone while she was with the Volturi but she became quite likeable after a while and now Alec is still hated while Jane is loved. Alec has refused to change for anyone, it is quite amazing really, and how stubborn he is."

"Wow! Alec power sounds kind of cool; I wish I had a power like that! All I can do is read and speak any language, how much fun is that?" I said, pouting.

He laughed at my expression then said "How would you feel if you were Alec? I mean I like my power but it originates from my desire to make my parents feel guilty about hitting me. That is not something I like to remember."

"Wow, your past sounds bad." I said, gasping.

"It is quite bad but at least I found the Missourian Coven! If it hadn't been for their diet of humans then I would never have escaped a life full of not fogged memories of pain."

"Well that diet is going to change soon, but not a 100% I asked her to not feed on humans for a little bit of time but she probably won't do it." I sighed.

"Well you know that Steffa was a vegetarian, right?"

"I did not know that." I said, honestly.

"It isn't a normal thing. You know I had no one my entire childhood until I escaped. When I was offered immortality it was hard not to pass up. Tyson wasn't as lucky, he was given away as a pet. He is Heidi's pet and she literally makes him pleasure her day in and day out. Nikki has one pet as well his name is Coal; she is much kinder to him because he reminds her of her first crush."

"Wow, I'm glad that I don't have a pet, I mean I couldn't do anything with them! I am too shy! I mean, seriously I haven't even had my first kiss yet." I exclaimed louder then I probably should have.

"You haven't had your first kiss? Wow, even I have and it was with one of the guard members before my change, she came down to the dungeon to guard me and Tyson then she said I was the prettiest guy she had ever saw and she kissed me, a long kiss. I had pulled away in disgust, she was ugly and honestly I didn't like her but I have at least had my first kiss. Her name was Alisha, she can copy any power but she can't copy any more so she is literally the most useless member of this coven. I honestly hate her but her lips did taste like a cherry, which was the only good thing about kissing her." He said. He likes cherry lip gloss; I'll keep that in mind. What am I talking about; I don't even like the guy! He's just a friend!

"Well, I want my first kiss to be with the guy I always will love." I said, picturing what I wanted my guy to look like.

"You ok, Irene?" He asked after I realized I was spaced out.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I said.

"Ok, good. You might want to get changed into your feeding clothes on the bed; they will be stained with blood." He said, sighing. I shivered at the thought of draining a human but the thought of blood got rid of the thought.

"Do I only drain their blood?" I asked quietly.

"Basically, that is what most does."

"Cool" I said, running to the clothes, hurrying to the door, I guess was the bathroom and ran inside quickly changing clothing. These clothes were old and looked worn but that might be why I was feeding in them.

I walked out and he looked at me and said "Well it's time for us to go and feed." He said and we took off running to the place I guessed was the feeding chambers. The humans were already here. I looked at them and I felt their heartbeats then I lunged, but was restrained by Steffa. She looked at me and said "8 of them will be spared. These are all for you to feed on, choose the eight that smell less potent to you." I gasped, these were all for me?

I grinned and lunged at a tall, lanky black haired boy and quickly bit his neck and my instincts took over and I stopped when a hand rested on my shoulder, Steffa. I stepped back and gasped at the 8 left, they were beautiful. Three of them were boys and five of them were girls. They were cowering back, away from me. I looked down at my clothes and discovered I was covered in blood. Steffa looked at me and then looked at Jay; Jay nodded and picked me up, walking away with me.

When we got back to my room I asked him something that I knew I didn't want to know but yet I did ask it.

"What will happen to those that I didn't eat?"

"They will probably be given as pets all I know is we won't receive one and neither will Mariah, since we are all three newborns."

"Mariah, is she another vampire?"

"Yeah, she has three powers, to heal humans, to create complete darkness and mind control."

"Wow, mind control? That is one freaking awesome power!" I exclaimed, shocked.

"You know something weird? Mariah's powers don't work on newborns. They only work on those older than a year."

"That is awesome, so it won't affect me?" I asked.

"Nope."

"Cool."

"Irene?" Steffa's voice spoke in the doorway.

"Yes?"

"Your brothers, their awake and they want to talk to you." She said.

"Ok, hold on." Before I knew what was happening, my body stiffened and a loud scream came from down the hall and I heard a word that made my mind stop, Shakir! He was coming and I knew that I would not be able to stop him if he went crazy….

Did you guys like Irene's POV? Should I do it again? Anyway, Irene is literally just like me. She can't stand people lying to her, she also fits in better with guys and she has a problem with understanding herself but she knows what she wants and how to obtain it. Hope you enjoyed Irene's POV! I know that I loved it, u?
