Thank you to everyone that reviewed- you made my day!

Previously – Cautiously, I walked towards the forest.

I had seen something, hadn't I? I wasn't going on a wild goose chase, was I?

In the distance behind me, the bell rung once again, signalling that it was time for afternoon lessons.

I turned to go back; there was no point in missing lessons on my first day. That wouldn't get me a very good reputation.

But then I heard a sound, coming from the depths of the forest. It sounded like someone had stepped on a branch with a lot of force, enough force to make the branch crack with their weight.

What lesson did I have next? Biology. Was it worth skipping? I had been in an advanced placement class back in Phoenix. The class here was probably well behind me, so I wouldn't be missing anything of consequence.

Then I heard that sound again.

That settled it. I was going to find what the cause of that sound is, and what the streak of light is.

The trees above my head were getting thicker and thicker as I moved deeper into the forest, blocking out the sun (but this was Forks, and the sun doesn't shine much, so it barely made any difference).

I slowed down my pace, not wanting to trip on this dangerously uneven ground. I had never been the most co-ordinated person. Back in Phoenix I got called clumsy all the time, since I had this great ability to fall flat on my face when walking along a completely flat surface.

Up ahead I could see that blur of light, speeding back and forth between two trees.

"Hello?" I called out, wondering if someone was playing a prank on the new girl.

At the sound of my voice however, the blur of light changed direction and started running further away from me.

"Wait," I cried, "what are you?" I started to sprint after it, determined to not let it get away.

I was really curious now. Who knew the town of Forks could hold such an exciting secret?

Suddenly my face made contact with the hard earthen floor. I had tripped over a rock in my haste.

I could feel a warm substance trickling down my leg. No-one needed to tell me that I had cut myself. I could smell the blood, that smell of rust that only blood has.

Out of the corner of my eye I could see that blur of light come charging towards me.

Maybe it was here to help…

It stopped when it got to me and I was amazed to see that it was one from the Cullen table, Jasper.

He sniffed the air around him, bent his head low over my injured leg, and bit it.

I cried out in pain, but I had walked so deep into the forest that there was no-one to hear me scream.

Suddenly, two more blurs of light burst out from the trees and attacked Jasper.

They pulled him off me and held him to the ground. I could see who they were, Alice and Emmett. How did they know I was being attacked?

Just then, a pain like no other started attacking my leg. It felt like my whole leg was in a fiery furnace. What was happening to me?

The last thing I remember before I blacked out was Alice standing over me and saying

"I'm so sorry, Bella. I truly am sorry."

Well?

Was this as good as the first chapter? Please Review!
