Chapter One

As the flames ripped their way through my body and screams escaped my lips I could hear Victoria laughing evilly at my pain. But I wasn't concerned with her. I was just trying to find some way to kill myself to make the pain stop.

I didn't even waist my breath begging Victoria to kill me. I knew if she was going to kill me she would have done it by now. Then I noticed something. The pain was leaving my arms and legs and slowly moving to my chest. And then just as quickly as the pain had begun, it was over. All that was left was a dry, parched burning in my throat.

I opened my eyes and gasped at how clearly I was seeing things. I could make out every fibre of the trees in front of me. I could make out every water particle in the air from to moist weather. I could hear birds chirping miles away. I could hear a sharp, quick gasp coming from beside me.

A growl escaped my lips as I came to face Victoria. Her expression was extremely easy to read. And it was clear she was terrified.

"How are you awake? It's only been two day?" she growled. How dare she growl at me! With that, I lunged for her throat.

200 Years Later

I sat by a tree in the middle of the woods, reading a book I got from one of my meals. It was about a girl who gets struck by lightning and develops psychic powers.

The forest was quiet today. I had no idea exactly where I was. I knew I was either somewhere between British Columbia and Victoria. I stood and and took a long stretch. I was bored as usual. I had no idea what I was going to do. I couldn't hunt anymore in this area without drawing attention to myself.

Well, that must mean it's time for me to move on. I usually run into nomads on my journeys and they entertain me for a while. I have travelled with a few of them for a few months at a time but for some reason I feel wrong about staying with anyone for long periods.

I started running. I didn't know where I was running to. I was running just to get somewhere.

After a few minutes of running I found a cabin. I could tell the scents lingering that no one had been inside for at least six months. I went inside and grinned at the beautiful design inside. I smiled when I noticed an I-pod Nano touch. I grinned and picked up. This just came out last year which would mean it would have some recent music in it. It was fully charged with unlimited life batteries. I turned the I-pod on and continued to run.

The last time I changed my clothes was three weeks ago. I don`t sweat, so I don`t stink. My clothes are actually still quite presentable. My clothes were hardly ripped. There was no blood on my anywhere. I am a lot neater with my meals then when I was a newborn.

I was pretty messy back then. Infact the Volturi had to come and personally remind me of the rules. And when that didn`t work, they made me stay with them in Italy until my newborn faze was over. The only reason they were so generous was because my power. I am a mental shield. Which is why he couldn`t read my mind.

After I stopped running, I found myself facing a sign. Forks, Washington welcomes you. I felt my chest tighten but I went in. I want to see when Charlie had passed.

I found the graveyard in no time. Charlie passed in 2055. Renee passed in 2069. And then there was the one that sent chills down my spine.

Isabella Marie Swan- 1989-2008. According to everyone I used to know, I was dead. Which is good because if anyone ever found me I`d probably kill them

I held my breath to ignore the strong, sweet smell of human blood. I decided it would be best for me to leave and go find a quick snack and then I`d continue on with my life.

APOV

I hate you, Edward! I thought mentally to me stupid brother.

I could hear him groan downstairs and murmer his usual `whatever`.

I could here him get up and leave the house to hunt. He did that whenever he didn't want to hear or thoughts.

I was about to go into my car and go shopping when I had a vision.

A brown haired, red eyed vampire was walking down a dessested street in Seattle in look of something.

That was when I realzed three things!

First that vampire was about to feed.

Secondly she was about to break the treaty!

And third! She was Bella!
