Hey everyone! This is my first ever Twilight story! I don't know what the Twilight fans are like compared to the Maximum Ride ones so I'm kinda scared (in a FUN way, though). I don't even know if there's such thing as a Twilight Own Character story… Well, there is now.
Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight or any of its characters. I also don't own anything remotely famous-sounding in this Fan Fic.
Claimer: I own the plot and my own characters.
Summer. It's meant to be fun right? Fun and warm.
Uh, try no.
'Why does it have to be so cold?' Annie moaned stuffing her hands deeper into her pockets.
'Annie, you're overreacting.' I said, 'Two degrees isn't that cold.'
Beside me, Joey snorted.
The three of us had spent the summer walking the streets of Vancouver, trying to escape from our families before the summer ended. Before we all started our freshmen year in High school.
'Emma,' Annie said. 'Two degrees isn't that cold for say, Alaska. Or Russia. Or Antarctica. But this is Washington in the middle of August. Two degrees is cold.'
And then, to prove her point, it started pouring with rain.
I scowled at Annie's satisfied little smirk as we ran to the nearest shop.
As we hid in the sports shop out of the rain, Joey said, 'Great. How do we get home now? Because I am not going out there again.'
Annie pulled her elbow length, strawberry-blonde hair out of its ponytail and shook her head, which basically means we all got wet.
'Ugh, Annie!' Joey snapped. 'Do you mind?' Her light blue eyes narrowed as she scowled at Annie. Annie shrugged.
Joey tucked a strand of her light brown, chin length hair behind her ear. 'I don't think this is letting up.' She looked at me.
'Ring your dad.' She ordered.
'Aw c'mon Joey, it's not that bad…' I started, but Joey scowled at me. I sighed.
'Fine.'

'I thought I told you three to stop doing this.' Dad said as he pulled up outside the sports shop ten minutes later. I rolled my eyes at Annie. Joey sniggered.
'Well, I have to take you two home now anyway.' Dad said as Annie and Joey climbed into the back seat and me into the front of the Volvo. 'Joey, you mum's been looking for you for ages. She's rang everyone she knows.'
'Oh.' Joey mumbled, rolling her eyes. From the front, I distinctly heard her mutter 'Idiot.' under her breath.
'I did tell her I was going out.' She said out loud, sounding completely unconcerned.
'Apparently you didn't tell her what time you'd be back at. She kept going on about all the weird disappearances at the minute.'
'Oh. Them.' Joey muttered, looking at her feet.
Annie lent forward and whispered to me 'If anyone tried to kidnap Joey she'd knock their shit in.' I grinned.
We were outside Joey's house by now, and she sighed.
'See you on Monday.' She said to Annie and I. 'Thanks, Mr. Bell.' She got out of the car and walked up the driveway, pulling her hood lower over her face to keep the rain away. As we drove away, I dimly heard Joey's mom yell 'JOESPHINE!' and smiled.

When dad and I walked into the house forty minutes later, it was cold, and I was wet. Shivering, I hung my jacket on the radiator. Dad had switched on the TV and was sitting in his armchair.
'Five more tourists went missing today…' The news reporter said, and dad sighed.
'I'm going to my room.' I muttered, turning around and practically running out of the room so I wouldn't have to hear about the missing people. I walked into the hall and upstairs, but stopped on the landing, looking at the picture hanging on the wall.
It was the only picture in the house of me, mom and dad together. It was taken when I was about five years old, and it was the most recent we had of mom.
My mom went missing ten years ago, after going hiking with some friends. She just vanished, without a trace. There were police searches but finally they just gave up and concluded that she was gone. Vanished.
Without a trace.
Okay, I'm going to be honest here, and any reviewers can feel free to agree with me.
That chapter was crap.
But, it's the start of the story, and I promise you it will get better,
