§Izzy§
I was really enjoying my first day of school. And that surprised me a lot. I had expected it to be awkward and boring, but Jamie was using all his energy into making the day fun for me.
And I had met so many new Ghosts too. Most of them were nice, and some didn't really understand that they were dead yet. It seamed that Forks High had a fire back in 1873, and some of the students still haunted the place. What got me a little worried though, was the poltergeist. She was a woman with fire red hair and pale skin. And it looked like she had been ripped apart in many places, because she had so many scars.
I was just about to tell Jamie about her, when someone walked up behind me. Jamie was the one to warn me to stop talking. I looked up and saw a guy with bronze hair and deadly pale skin. I think he was the guy with the silver Volvo, but I could be wrong.
"Hello, my name is Edward Cullen. Do you need help finding your next class?" He asked me in a silky smooth voice.
"No thank you, I'm fine." I said politely, and then I walked away. He was handsome, I couldn't deny that, but that didn't give me a reason to be friends with him. Especially if I had a poltergeist on my hands. I would be to busy. Besides, he was probably one of the cool kids who had a lot of friends and a girlfriend. People were always excepted if they were beautiful.
"What were you about to say?" Jamie asked me. I glanced around and saw that most of the kids had gone inside. There was this guy leaning against the wall on the other side of the school grounds, but he couldn't hear anything. He was huge, I noticed, like some body builder, with dark brown curls. I couldn't see his face, because we were to far apart.
"There is a woman here, Jamie, a poltergeist. She has red hair and a lot of scars on her body. I didn't really get a good look at her, because she went through the classroom to fast for me to really see her. We can talk more about her when we get home, I'm not comfortable discussing this with you were anyone can hear me." I told him as I started to walk towards building six.
The big guy gave me a funny look when I walked past him and he grabbed my upper arm so that I had to stop. I looked up at him expectantly.
"Who were you talking to, over there?" I was surprised at his voice. It was deep, but still beautiful somehow, just like Edward's voice was.
"I was talking in my cell phone." I said, looking down at my arm. He let go of me and pushed himself of the wall.
"I'm Emmett Cullen, by the way. It looked like you were talking to yourself." He said with a sheepish smile. I smiled back up at him. Damn he was big.
"Isabella Swan, but you can call me Izzy. Are you Edward's brother?" I asked him curiously. He nodded his head and held the door open for me. I stopped dead in my tracks. There, at the end of the hallway, was the poltergeist woman. She was glaring at the students, as if it were there fault that she was trapped on earth.
"Something wrong?" Emmett asked me when I didn't move. I shook my head and smiled up at him. I pretended to look through my bag for a moment and turned so my hair fell in front of my face.
"Jamie, do you see her?!" I hissed at him, panicking slightly. The first time I had to deal with a poltergeist was four years ago, and he wanted to cut my head off. He almost did too. I ended up with a cracked skull and 3 broken ribs.
"Yeah, I do. And she is a poltergeist alright. Don't worry, just go to class. We can talk to her in lunch." He said reassuringly. I nodded my head and turned back to Emmett.
"It was nice meeting you, but I really need to go now. Bye!" I said as I dashed into my classroom. Everyone looked up as I entered and every pare of eyes followed me as I walked up to the teacher so she could sign my slip. She didn't make me introduce myself, and I got the seat in the back of the class.
"I'll go and talk to her, see if we can meet in an empty classroom or something." Jamie said and he walked out of the classroom. Jessica was glaring at me from across the room. This had started as a really good day, but now it turned for the worse. I could just picture myself in a hospital bed when this was over.
The class ended and I walked out of the classroom. Jamie appeared right in front of me and I almost walked straight through him.
"Sorry about that. I couldn't find her, so you can go to lunch and I'll search some more. I'll come and get you when I find her, okay?" He told me as we walked towards the cafeteria. I nodded and silently prayed that he didn't find her.
But I knew Jamie to good to know that he would find her, and fast. So I didn't even bother to get some food. I sat down at an empty table and laid my head in my hands. What the hell was I suppose to do with a poltergeist in my school? I had to perform some sort of exorcist, that much was clear. I knew all to well that poltergeist's were pure evil and did not hesitate when it came to killing.
"Can we sit with you?" Someone asked me, I glanced up and noticed that it was Edward and his family. I nodded and lifted my head.
"Hi, I'm Alice Cullen and this is Jasper and Rosalie Hale. I know you've met both of my brothers." Alice said, gesturing to the table. I gave a nod to everyone and smiled a little.
"So, how do you like Fork's so far?" Alice asked casually. I noticed that all there trays were full but non of them were eating.
"I don't know yet, I came here yesterday." I told them truthfully. In reality, I didn't like Forks all that much. Well, not after I found out that there is a Poltergeist in my school.
"Who do you live with?" Emmett asked curiously.
"I live alone." I told them some what reluctantly. I was to nervous to talk to them about every day stuff like this. I just wanted to be left alone.
"Oh…" He obviously didn't know what to say to that, even though I could see that he was curious about why I lived alone. I almost jumped out of my seat when Jamie appeared right in front of me.
"Don't do that!" I hissed at him. I noticed that the others were staring at me curiously, and I smacked a hand over my mouth. Jamie smiled slightly.
"Come on, she's waiting in an empty classroom, I'll show you the way." He told me. I removed my hand from my mouth and looked around the table. They were all looking at me like I was something really funny.
"Um…sorry about that, I have to go." I mumbled as I got up and left the table. What I didn't know was that I was being followed.
I walked with Jamie out of the cafeteria and down the hall. I opened the door and looked in. She was sitting at the teachers desk, glaring at me expectantly. I walked in and stood in front of her. No way in hell was I about to sit down in a room with a Poltergeist that could kill me if she wanted.
"So you can see the dead? Interesting. Your friend here told me that you wanted to meet me." The poltergeist said with a sneer.
"Yes, I was wondering about a lot of things actually. What's your name, for starters?" I asked politely. It was best not to get on there bad side at first.
"Victoria, now what do you want?" She asked me annoyed.
"Well, I know that every poltergeist and ghost has a purpose to be stuck on earth, and I want to help you so that you can go over to the other side."
"Why would I want to go over to the other side, and why do you think I would need your help?" She spat, furious that I was trying to make her leave.
"You can't stay here forever. Your dead, your not suppose to be here." I told her calmly. So much for trying to be nice. What she did next was not shocking, but she did catch me off guard. She ran at me full force and slammed me up against the wall. My feet must have been dangling one feet up in the air, and she was holding me up with her hand around my throat.
"You listen to me little girl, and you listen good. Its non of your business why I'm here and you'll keep your nose out of it if you want to live!" She screamed in my face. My hands closed around the one she had around my throat and I tried to tug it away from me. I was starting to see black spots and I was gasping for breath.
I opened my eyes and saw that the Cullen's were staring at me in alarm. I couldn't let them see this, I couldn't let them get involved.
I kicked Victoria in the stomach and she flew a few feet back, and I fell to my knees, breathing hard.
"You just mead a huge mistake, little girl." She kicked me one time in the stomach and I toppled over in pain. She was really strong, which meant that she had been dead for a long time.
The Cullen's rushed to my side and helped me sit up against the wall. Victoria was still standing there, smirking down at me.
"This isn't over, Victoria, I will make you disappear." I told her, glaring. Jamie was looking at me helplessly, and I knew that he wanted to interfere. He couldn't do anything to help me and I knew that it was eating him up. He was guilty, I could tell.
"We'll see." Was all she said before she ran through the wall.
"Don't feel bad, Jamie. You know you couldn't do anything." I told him breathlessly. I had completely forgot about the Cullen's being there.
"Izzy, we're not alone." He whispered to me sadly. I nodded and looked up at the Cullen's.
"Hey guys. Shouldn't you be eating lunch?" I asked them, rubbing my neck slightly. They rolled there eyes at me.
"I think you have to explain to us what the hell just happened." Emmett said, glancing from me up to the wall. As if something was going to grab me around the neck again and hold me up against the wall. Again.
"I think it would be best if you just forgot what you saw and didn't tell anyone." I told them quietly. They looked at me in disbelief.
"Your not expecting us to just drop it when we saw you hanging by your throat one feet up in the air, and you talking to yourself about ghosts and poltergeists. Would you just forget about that?" Emmett asked and the others gave murmurs of agreement.
"They do have a point you know." Jamie said, smirking because he knew that I would never let anything like that 'Just drop'.
"No, I wouldn't. But this is my problem, I know how to deal with it, so just go back to lunch if you know what's best for you." I snapped. I got up and supported myself against the wall, panting slightly. The Cullen's stood up with me, looking at me with concern.
"Izzy be nice." Jamie said lightly trying to lighten the mood.
"You, shut up. Go and find that girl and take her home. I'll come in a few minuets." I told him. I knew that the Cullen's wouldn't give up, they new something strange was going on.
"Fine, you don't have to be so mean." Jamie teased. I glared at him and pointed to the window. He grinned and disappeared.
"We can take you to our father, he's a doctor." Edward said gently. He laid a calming hand on my shoulder and it felt like electricity shot through my whole body.
"Thank you, but I already have a Doctor that checks my head. And according to him, I'm crazy. So go and run with all your other friends and leave me alone." I said calmly, even though I was furious on the inside. How dare he recommend that I see a Dr? he had some nerve.
"I meant for your throat and stomach, you should have it checked up. And we don't have friends, we have each other. We just want to help you." Edward elaborated. I smiled slightly at his concern, it was sweet of them, wanting to help me.
"That's okay, I promised Jam--someone that I had to get home soon…as you heard me say. Besides, my mom wouldn't pay for a hospital check up." I grabbed my bag and slung it over my shoulder.
"I have to go, I'll see you later." I was about to go out the door but Edward grabbed my arm to stop me.
"I'll come with you. Alice, you can drive me car home." Edward said as he tossed a par of car keys to Alice.
"No, you can't. I know that you guys know something is wrong with me, but that doesn't mean you can come home with me. I have to do this myself." I said stubbornly. He cocked an eyebrow at me.
"And why do you have to do it all alone?" He asked me curiously, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Because…you wouldn't understand it, okay? And I'm not about to take a complete stranger home with me. And I'm certainly not about to share my deepest and darkest secrets ether. I just met you! " He glanced up at the wall and back to me.
"What if that happens again?" He asked me, and I could see that he was worried.
"Trust me, it won't. that can only happen in school. I really need to go now, Jamie is waiting for me." I told him. He blocked my path and said; "Not without me." God this guy was annoying.
"Fine." I grumbled. He smiled and held the door open for me. Like I said, this would be a long day.
