"Chapter 1-
"Mom!" I called down the stairs.
"Yes?"
"Have you seen it anywhere?" I asked. She knew what I was talking about.
Darn it. Always. I always lose my crap.
"Didn't you put it in your bag, already?" she called up to me.
Oh, right.
"Oh, yeah, sorry, I forgot." I said, laughing at myself. Messy and forgetful.
"Well, then. Come on dear, the car waits for no one!" she said. I laughed, yes it were moving there in a few weeks and it was my idea to check out the legendary Forks : home of rabid Twilighters. Personally, I knew this was cheesy , but hell, I wasn't going to let a movie enterprise ruin a good series, that admittedly, had a few flaws.
"Coming, Miss Impatient-Pants." I ran down the stairs, not daring to take them two at time, yet still stumbling on the second to last step. Feeling my body falling forward in slow motion and my heart dropping like it always does when I lean too far back in a chair, my body became suspended halfway through the fall. My special, as in "I should be tested for mutation" special ability. It was like gravity worked for me.
"I'm good, thanks" I whispered to nothing like a crazy person and my Gravity Helper kept me up as I got my footing again. I'd been able to do this since I was a little kid falling off of playground swings and jumping off of walls. Back then, I named it Kyala, thinking it was a person. I wasn't a creative child. Still, I never changed the lame nickname for this power.
"Nyala!" my mom called to me from the car. I kept going out the door, slamming it behind me.
"Ready?" she asked as I slid into the passenger seat.
"Yep." I said. She pulled out of the drive way in the Dorango and began down the street. I pulled out my blackberry and clicked on Daniel's number,then started typing.
we r leaving r8 now
Then I clicked send.
"Daniel?" my mom presumed.
I nodded, rolling my eyes at her. Daniel was my boyfriend of six weren't attached at the hip like most couples, well, I wasnt attached to were like friends that held hands and kissed. That was about it. Nothing more really. Nothing serious.
"How long?" I asked my mom, referring to the driving time.
"Five hours or so."
"Ugh." I moaned.
"Oh, cool, the school." I said, taking a picture of it for my insanely obsessive friend Neela. She was more of "Twilighter" than me and when I'd told her where my mom had decided to move us, she'd went nuts. As I turn my head to look through the side window something white in the woods catches my eye.
I turn back to the woods and look closer. Something white was running in the woods, going about the same speed as our car. It followed us for a brief few seconds then vanishes deeper into the too green forest. I looked over the clock. It was 7:30, almost time for the school day to begin.
