The conjoined vampire twins, Lana and Chelsea, entered my chambers.

"Morning, Bella," they joyfully said, in unison which I find creepy at times. "Your father requests your presence in the Great Hall."

By the way, my 'REAL' father is King Arthur Pendragon of Camelot, and thankfully he is the father in my family that I give my uttermost respect for.

I carried on sobbing my sorrows away only slightly peering over my knees to see if two of my sisters weren't playing tricks on me again

"Bella," Chelsea said. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah," I replied with sorrow filled in my voice. "I'm fine."

"You don't sound like it." Lana picked up.

I slowly raised my head to reveal my red, new-born eyes, as well as the fact that they were also bloodshot, along with my sharp, new fangs.

"Or look ok." Chelsea continued.

"What happened?" they said together, again in unison.

"Ok," I eventually replied with grief still holding onto my voice. "Do you want the long version or the short version?"

"Short version."

"Basically, Miss Hunkin is a vampire and turned me."

"Wow!" Lana said in shock. "Explains the freaky eyes."

"Lana!" Chelsea said, slightly annoyed.

"It's alright." I said. "I have to accept it sometime."

Suddenly, Holly burst through the doors shouting, "You guys! The king needs his daughter now or he'll kill us!"

"Hey Holly," I replied, slowly rising from my bed. "Tell him I'm coming."

"Hi Bella. Wow, what happened?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

"Alright. No need to be moody."

"Damn! That's my breakfast snack gone. I'll have to find someone else." Holly whispered to herself.

"Oi!" I said, very annoyed and slightly amazed at this new ability, which was shortly followed by another crack of lightning striking the palace. "I heard that! So you were the vampire who was draining the people in the village!"

"Might have been."

"Bella! Get your vampire abilities under control! Please!" Arthur shouted from a distance.

"Sorry father!" I shouted back. "Coming!"

"You're a little late." My father said as I entered the room.

"Sorry," I replied feeling very and upset. "I had a tough morning so far, ok?"

"Yeah, it's alright. Come here." Arthur said, whilst pulling back the only empty chair, which happened to be right next to him, around the round table with his knights. It was clearly another one of my father's 'boring' council meetings. This was going to take forever.

When it finally finished, I stayed behind, so I could feed my curiosity about Leah, even though he knows so little about vampires.

"Father?" I said, cautiously. "You know about my English teacher?"

"Yeah," Arthur replied. "What about her?"

"She's a vampire."

"Oh! Wow! Who bit her?"

"I don't know, but I don't think it was the Count. That leads me to next point…"

"Which is?"
"If you don't interrupt me then I'll tell you!"

"That is no way to talk to me Bella Pendragon!"

"Sorry, father."

"Thank you. Now you can carry on."

"So, I know I was injected with vampire blood, but who was it from?"

"I don't know. Ask your mother. Anyway, I'm a little busy right now, as I still need to teach your sisters to sword fight and not rely on their magic all the time to defend themselves."

So, I swiftly walked to my mother's chambers, which probably took me less than a second now I was a new-born vampire. Naturally, my middle sister, Pheobe, was braiding my mother's black hair. As soon as, my mother realised I was here, she got up and hugged me; like any loving mother would. Phoebe looked up with a smile and rushed over to join the hug, which lasted 2 minutes.

"Yo, sis. Our father requests your presence in either the training grounds or the Great Hall." I said, turning to Phoebe.

"What does he want? Because if he wants me to go to one of his boring council meetings then I'm not going." Phoebe replied, slightly irritated.

"No, he wants you to do some sword fighting. Besides been done that."

"Boring, huh? Anyway best be going don't want to miss another 'exciting' lesson on how to use a sword?"

"Don't be sarcastic, sword sighting is fun."

"Oh yeah. In what way?"

"Okay, so I don't have a reason, but don't think of it as sword fighting, think of it as a father-daughter bonding session."

"I'll try."

"Okay. Now get lost, before I make you." I said, with a twinkle in my eye and raising my fingers ready to click and magic my sister to my father.

"I'll go. But you owe me some your sword fighting skills."

With that she gracefully walked out of the room. Then, after I was assured she was gone, I turned my attention back to my mother, who looked at me as if I had done something wrong.

"What?" I remarked.

"Why did you threaten to use magic on your sister?" she replied, with a hint of anger in her voice.

"I wasn't going to use it on her."

"You know never to threaten your sister with magic!" She exploded with anger.

"Calm down, mum. I don't want you burning your room again." I said soothingly.

"Ok." She replied, calmer but still angry.

"I promise. I won't threaten my sister with magic again."

"Alright." My mother said, who if I haven't said already is Morgana Pendragon.

"But…" I started.

"No, buts." Morgana said, firmly. "Now come here."

Then, she embraced me in a hug, stroking my long brunette hair. I looked up at her with my new-born eyes. She took a step away and gave a worried look.

"What?" I asked, although on small part of me know why she was afraid.

"Your… Your eyes… They're… red." Morgana stuttered in fear.

"Yeah." I said, in regret. "I know."

"But... But, how?"

"Long story short, but my English teacher is a vampire. Don't know who bit her, but she bit me to complete her conversion."

"But that's not possible. As far as I'm aware or what you told me." My mother said, confused and calmer than she was a few seconds ago.

"I think she said that it was the only way to turn her humanity switch on."

"How do you know that it is not the Count?"

"No. It's not his style. Plus he doesn't have the power to prevent vampires from switching their humanity switch on. Anyway she said something about me becoming a part of a family."

"Well I don't know any more about this than you do, so go the Cullens and tell them. They might know something."

"Alright." I said and walked gracefully off to find my one true love, Edward Cullen.

In the middle of the woods, not too far from Camelot, is a house where the love of my life and his family live, to protect suspicions and create room for the occasional person that decides to move into my father's kingdom. I walked through the front door and into the kitchen in a flash. I think I was starting to get the hang of my new vampire powers, which is surprisingly fast for a newly bitten vampire in her first few hours. Maybe it is just the fact I lived with vampires most of my life, I picked up how to control my powers. Or maybe from years of being a witch, either way it was probably nothing to worry about.

As I walked into the kitchen, where Rosalie, Emmett and Esme were discussing about something that I could only make out in pieces, but not enough to work out what they were saying.

"The Volturi are on the move." Esme said with worry and panic in her voice.

"Who are the Volturi?" I replied, curious to who they are and why they got Esme so scared

Startled, everyone turned round to see me, but when they saw my red, new-born eyes, that was when they freaked out.

"Why are you all so scared?" I said, surprised at their reaction, even though a chill shot through my spine. "You are acting like I'm an assassin sent to kill you or the Devil himself or something else terrifying."

No response, only the three terrified looks on my vampire clan's faces.

"Can you at least talk to me?"

Still no response. Then the kitchen door broke the silence. I turned my head and smiled to see Edward and Carlisle enter the room.

"Hello, Bella." Carlisle said, with a smile on this face. "What matter should happen to please us with your presence?"

"Hey, Bells." Edward said, with his beautiful golden eyes gazing upon mine.

"At least, someone's talking to me." I replied, relieved that these two weren't scared of me being a newbie vamp.

"What's with the creepy eyes, Bells? You get contacts or what?" Edward said with curiosity, with a hint of fear. Scarily this sent a pleasing glow of power through me. I have them only when I am near Edward and making sweet love to him. But never like this.

I shyly replied, "I'd rather not talk about it."

Edward pushed, "Bells, it might be relevant to the recent information that Carlisle and I just discovered."

"So you've heard the news about them, then?" Esme popped up with.

Edward, surprised to hear this, said "Yeah. But there more. It explains why in a way."

"Can someone please explain this to me? I am really sacred right now. I got attacked and turned by my own English teacher. Now there is this Volturi, which has all of you scared." I burst out in pure sacredness, which got everyone staring at me.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Bells." Edward said, before I started to burst into tears. He held me in a huge hug, which soothed me. "It's just that the Volturi are the most evil and most powerful vampire clan in existence. They hardly ever move from their territory, but when they do it is always bad."

"Thanks. I understand now, but why are they so evil?" I replied, still curious.

"Cus they create the rules and enforce them. Break it and you die." Esme stepped in. Finally she was starting to treat me normally.

"Ok." I said clearly beginning to get scared now. "So why are they on the move now?"

"Aro, their leader, is looking for his daughter." Carlisle said, with compassion, making a shiver rush down my spine. "I knew he would do it at some point. But who?"

Silence fell over the room, as everyone went into deep thought. But the only thing going through though my head was Leah saying those six words 'So we can be a family' constantly looping, making feel like I was sinking into an inescapable hole, which was starting to show in my face, despite my effort to hide it. Was the Volturi after me? Was it Aro's blood that I had in my system? If so, what will happen if he found me?

"Hey Bella," Emmett said, pulling out a hand to comfort me. "You alright?"

"I'm fine, Emmett" I replied with fear written all over my face, body and voice. "But thanks for your concern."

"Your clearly not." Esme told me. "I can see it on your face. What's up?"

"I think I know who Aro's after." I croaked.

"Who?" Everyone asked at once.

"Me."
