The day was passing by quickly; all that was left was lunch and two more classes then it was all over. When I walked in to the lunch room I didn't even bother going through the lunch line, I just walked strait to the table my family always sat and took my seat. I looked around at them and couldn't help but smile.
Across from me there was Rayne and Sunny wedged in-between their mates Rath and Kathrin. Looking over some papers with wickedly long equations on them. Rayne and Sunny were an oddity in the vampire world, along with being blood related, and twins, they also had the same power to manipulate the weather. The only reason we were able to live in New York was because they tried to keep the weather somewhat cloudy.
Rayne's mate Rath, was 115 going on 18, his hair was a silvery white and fell to the middle of his back, he often wears it in a braid or in a ponytail, and on his lower lip he has snake bite piercings from when he was human. He detests the taste of animal blood and it actually makes him physically and mentally ill when he drinks it. So he hunts the perverts and killers in or near the city where we live. When he hunts one of us goes with him to keep him from losing control, and going on a killing spree. He's an illusionist and knows a persons worst fear the moment he sets his eyes on them. Because of his power to slightly bend the look of reality, he often makes his eyes look gold instead of red because he feels bad that he can't share the same diet as the rest of our family. We never had to worry about registering for school and stuff like that, even thou none of us looked old enough to be a parent, because Rath would just make two of us look like we're in our mid 30s, so we could do it our selves.
On the other side of Sunny was his mate Kathrin (a.k.a. Kitten) she has shoulder length curly strawberry blond hair, and freckles dotted them selves across her cheeks and nose. She's the youngest in our family at the age of 64, and looked only 16. Her ability is to shape shift in to animals and people. What most vampires don't seem to realize is that when she changes shape into something or someone she still has all of her vampire powers and also gains that person or thing's powers as well.
Next to me there was Magnus and on the other side of him his mate Vladimir. Vladimir is 83, looks 20 and acts like a 10 year old. He has reddish brown hair, that's somewhat cropped, he's tall and a little lanky, but has buff arms that makes you think he spends some time at the gym but at the same time he's simply tone, not bulky. He has complete control over fire but hardly ever uses his power unless the situation calls for it. He reminds me a lot like Emmett with how it looks like he would kill you for looking at him the wrong way, but in actuality he's a giant teddy bear.
Magnus (a.k.a. Maggy) was the oldest out of all of us in age and in appearance, he's 736 but looks only 22. He has light brown hair and eyes so big that he constantly reminded me of a baby deer, His power is the ability to control water. Magnus was born in a time when it was unheard of for a man to like much less love another man, so for over a century he had to conceal his true self and just hope that in time things would change. And apparently they changed enough by the time he met our coven and in turn met Magnus. The two are complete opposites but are undoubtedly eternally inseparable.
And finally looking to the other side of me there was Agana leaning back in her seat, feet propped up on the table with a book in hand as always. She was the person I had the most in common with in our coven. I think one of the reasons for that was because we both didn't have mates. Agana looked 19 but was actually 91. She was the color of a cappuccino, but still had an odd silvery undertone to her skin. Her hair was a deep inky black that had a reddish glow to it, and fell in thick glossy waves to just below her shoulder blades. With the combination of her gorgeous caramel skin and golden eyes it gave her a wonderfully exotic look,. Her power was the ability to heal any physical wound, and it fit her caring personality perfectly.
Lastly there was me. I had the power to make force-fields that could block any attack. I usually kept a small one around myself that blocks all vampire abilities, but wont physically block anyone from me. I had become our coven leader after our old one went stark raving mad and killed almost the entire human population in the city we were living in at the time. Unlike Rath he enjoyed the kill more so than the blood. He enjoyed the fear in a persons eyes when he was about to rip their throat out, and said that it made the kill all the sweeter and more appetizing. He sickened us and try as we might we were unable to destroy him. We felt no remorse for him when the Volturi came and killed his wretched ass, we were only sorry we were unable to do it our selves. That had happened the year Agana was changed, we never found out what had caused that change in him, and frankly we didn't really give a damn.
So yeah we weren't perfect. And far from ever being the typical all American family. But we were happy and we cared for one another, and that's all that really mattered. I let out an exhausted sigh, and my entire family looked up at me, some faces looking concerned others confused, all loving. I took in a shaky breath, "Guys," I said, "I think its time-"but Agana quickly interrupted me. "Bella, I think its time for a change in scenery, don't you?"
I took a side ways glance at her; she was looking back at her book indifferently. A small smile graced my lips, she could always guess what I was thinking, "Yeah, I think so too."
"So where to this time?" Rayne asked her eyes never leaving her papers.
"I don't know, its Agana's turn to pick," I looked over to her, "so… where to?"
"Forks," She said simply looking over her book at me.
"F-forks?" I whimpered staring at her in disbelief; she couldn't honestly think we would go there.
"Forks." She said with a nod.
"But, but we can't!"
"Oh yes we can, it was my turn to choose and I pick Forks"
"But we don't have a house there!"
"Yeah, we do. I bought it last decade online. We're going. Deal with it."
I stared at her mouth agape. "Close your mouth or you'll end up catching flies." She said flatly. Did I say she was caring? Make that she's the devil incarnate. I glared at her whispering out a venomous "I hate you."
"No you don't." and that was that. Tonight we would pack up our things and we would go to Forks.
Okay yeah I know really short chapter considering it was basically character bio's. sorry about that. this past week's been hectic. I found out my older sisters pregnant on Thursday. And the first thing I say to her is 'why the hell didn't you use protection.' I know, I know, who the hell does that but apparently I do. I just thank god that I was talking to her over the phone otherwise I would have gotten smacked a good one. So yeah I'm going to be an aunt in about 8 ½ months, and I'm scared shitless by it. oh and I think my best and oldest guy friend (I mean seriously I've known this guy since like 2nd grade.)is going to ask me out. Been there with one other dude and it sooooo didn't work out. So I'm freaking out about that too.
