Chapter 7

Decision

I peeked through the clothes rack that I was hiding behind. I quickly moved into one of the changing rooms after grabbing a few things off the rack.

I waited a few minutes and Esme came to the changing rooms, obviously following my scent. "Chloe," she said. I opened my door a bit and she came in. "Why are you in here?"

"I wish I could say that I was trying on clothes, but I can't."

"Then why?"

"Did you see that guy out there that was really tall and the woman next to him?"

"Yeah, I even talked to them. They're new in town and I heard they were talking about finding a doctor, so I recommend Carlisle."

"That's my sister and brother-in-law."

"Okay," said Esme. Then it dawned on her, "Oh."

"I need to get out of here."

"What do you suggest?"

"Do you have your cell phone?"

"Of course."

"Tail them. Give me a call when they are at the other end of the mall." The store was not far from the entrance we came in. "I'll call you back once I'm in the car. I'm really sorry about your shopping trip."

"I'll come back tomorrow." Esme left and I waited for her to call. About twenty minutes later she called. "They're in the food court. They just sat down."

"Okay." I left the dressing room, gave my clothes back to the attendant and made my way out of the store. I walked at a fast pace out of the mall and to our car and then called Esme. She soon joined me and we returned home.

"Did you have a good trip?" Kate asked when we were back in the house. Then she saw my expression. "What happened?"

"My sister just moved into town," I said.

"Oh," they all said. I ran out the front door after grabbing my backpack and ran to my house. I grabbed some extra clothes, a few books and put them in my backpack. I was back at the house.

"Looks like I'm going with you guys," I said to Tanya.

"Okay," said Tanya. It was almost time for the Cullens to be back. Alice would probably warn them, having seen a vision of me leaving. They all came in at the same time.

"Why are you leaving?" asked Alice. Of course she would have only seen me leaving, not my reason why.

"My sister was at the mall today," I said. "Esme talked to them and she and her husband had just moved here."

"Oh," said Bella.

"I am leaving as to not cause trouble. It is too risky for my sister and I to be in the same place. I doubt she has forgotten what I looked like before I disappeared."

"We will miss you," said Esme, giving me a hug. I received a hug from each of the Cullens before following the Denalis out. I sat in the back of their van next to Tanya. Kate and Garrett occupied the front, Kate driving, while Elezear and Carmen occupied the middle seats.

The trip to Alaska, brought back the memories of my last trip, where I had met the Cullens. I did not know it at the time, but it was the turning point of my life as a vampire.

We arrived at their house early the next day. It was a beautiful place. I was the last one in the house, just taking in the surroundings. Inside was just as beautiful as the outside. "Did you guys hire Alice?" I asked with a smile.

"No," said Tanya, almost as if she was offended. "We did this."

"I'll show you to your room," said Carmen. I followed her upstairs to the guest room. it was rather small and there was a bed. I dropped my backpack on my bed and just sat on the end. I began thinking how much my life had changed these last five years. I had no clue on who had created me, I was now living with my third coven, and now a vegetarian vampire. I eventually headed back downstairs, evidently in the middle of a conversation.

"So no power?" asked Kate.

"No," said Elezear.

"Who are you talking about?" I asked.

"You," said Tanya. "I was just asking Elezear whether or not you possessed any powers.

"I could have answered that. The answer is no." I knew Elezear could sense what a vampire's power was. "So what do you do around here for fun?"

"This and that," said Tanya. "We have some games, but they're older ones." She pointed over to a chest. I opened it up and she was right. "We really never got around to updating them."

"Anyone in the mood to go hunting?" I asked.

"Sure," said Tanya. Elezear had declined because he had hunted with Carmen before we left the Cullens. "I'll go ask Kate and Garrett." Tanya went upstairs and returned with them. We headed outside.

"So what is there to eat around here?"

"Elk, moose, bears, some wolves." Her last comment made me laugh, thinking about how Jake would react if I fed on a wolf. We did not go far, as we ran into a herd of moose. While I took my own down, I watched the other three as they hunted. We were all done after four, and we returned to our house. Kate and Garrett went back upstairs, while I sat down on one of the couches with Tanya. "So how long do you think you'll stay?"

"No clue," I replied. "I doubt this will be permanent. I might go out and buy my own house somewhere and stay. I might go back to wandering like I did before I met the Cullens or join another coven. Only time will tell."

"Or Alice."

"She can't because I don't know what I will do."

"True."

"Plus, I asked her. I just wanted to know if any curve balls were coming my way."

"You know you are probably the only vampire I know who never thinks about what he or she will do next."

"It was how I was raised. We never had much money, so we made do with what we had. Thinking back on it now, if it weren't for the fact that we inherited a house, we probably would have been stuck in some apartment, with one bathroom for 7 people." That made Tanya laughed. "It would have been interesting." We talked for several hours before I finally retreated to my room. I had officially dropped all of my classes at the university so I really had nothing to do. For the first time since I became a vampire, I wished I could sleep so I could put off thinking about it until morning.

A/N. Please R&R. Hope you are enjoying. So Chloe left the Cullens and now is with the Denalis. I had always planned on her leaving for a reason like this, but I just did not know what she would do. I'm going to skip ahead a year or two in the story next chapter.
