Chapter 1

I walked aimlessly through the woods with my guitar case on my back. I hike when I get really mad or when I am under way to much stress. So, as I walked around-and tripped after every step- I managed to get back to my house, not willingly. I could hear my mom calling me in the distance. She hates it when I go off on my own. Since, my dad died, she has changed. I mean she won't even let me walk with Jeremiah or Ricky. Oh, forgive me. I am Skyla Baria, and I am 17. I just moved here with my mom Tally and my two older brothers Ricky and Jeremiah. They look 18, but they are originally 22. We moved because we are different, and not a good different. Some people think we are normal and wouldn't really know what we are from an outside look. Hell, we don't even know what we are. We know that it is a secret. And our most dominant trait, immortality and blood thirsty. We know because my mom is over two hundred and she looks only 29. She stopped aging after an accident with her work. She had some kind of chemicals spilled on her and her genes change. She started learning how to manage everything shortly after. We have to hunt every couple of weeks, if we don't we could die. My mom always goes the longest, though she does eat human food. My brothers and I never dare eat human food, so we are weaker. My mom always made us when my dad was alive. She loved him, so she didn't want him dragged into this horrible life. Though he was anyway. She mated with my dad, who was mortal. So when we were born we took after her and him. We get our looks from him, but our genes from her. She always says he made her life worth living. Now, it is gone. He died of a drunk driver two years ago. We love him still. We miss him terribly. My mom says we would have to leave him eventually so, it didn't come as a surprise when we got a call from an officer in Maine. My mom said we would have had to move anyway, so we packed and headed to Forks, WA. She said it was a small town and we would be left alone more. I am actually a little happy we moved here, it is nice and rainy. I love the rain. I love the dark. I love everything dark. I am a creature of the night, or at least I want to be. The only bad thing is school starts tomorrow for me and my brothers. I am going to be in 11th, since I am only 17.

"Mom, I'll be back later." I yelled as I ran back in the woods. I walked aimlessly until I saw a huge old willow and ran over. I jumped onto the lowest and took out my guitar. I always play my baby when I want to relax. I tied my long thick black her back, even though it made no difference since it goes to my but, and started to think. I let a melody float into my mind and my fingers started playing over the cords. I started singing:

I'm going away for a while
But I'll be back, don't try to follow me
'Cause I'll return as soon as possible
See I'm trying to find my place
But it might not be here where I feel safe
We all learn to make mistakes

And run
From them
With no direction
We'll run from them, from them
With no conviction

'Cause I'm just one of those ghosts
Traveling endlessly
Don't need no road
In fact they follow me
And we just go in circles
Now I'm told that this life
And pain is just a simple compromise
So we can get what we want out of it

Would someone care to classify,
A broken heart and twisted minds
So I can find someone to rely on

So run
To them, to them
Full speed ahead
Oh you are not
Useless
We are just

Misguided ghosts
Traveling endlessly
The ones we trusted the most
Pushed us far away
And there's no one role
We should not be the same
But I'm just a ghost
And still they echo me
They echo me in circles

-Misguided ghosts, Paramore-

I heard people coming in the distance, so I packed up my guitar and started running. I heard the muffled steps as the two people gained on me. I heard a male voice and a girl's voice. I could hear the girl ask if he heard a guitar and he replied, but I couldn't make out what he said. I heard footsteps come faster and it sounded closer, until I saw a black figure in the distance, I saw a male, about five ten. I couldn't make out his face, and I saw him hesitate before he started forward in my direction again. I took off as fast I could.

"Hey!! Wait!!" He yelled. It was deep and I felt a draw to it, but I kept going. I heard his footsteps increase and I finally made it out of the forest to my house. Yes, it is in the forest, but it is calmer there. I ran as fast as I could and slammed the door shut as I locked it and started taking deep breaths. I saw Jeremiah come out of the other room and stop in front of me. He looks the most like me, with his short black hair and dark tan. He has a muscular build, but not a complete pee brain. He looks normal. I looked right into his eyes and pleaded for him to leave. I saw the despair in his deep chocolate eyes. I sighed.

"What happened?" Jeremiah asked as he stopped in front of me and took in my appearance, no doubt I am covered in dirt and my cloths are torn.

"Nothing, just some people hiking in the woods and they saw me, so I ran." I said with a shrug as I stepped away hesitantly from the door.

"You didn't hurt one of them did you…you know we don't hurt humans." He said with caution in his voice.

"No, I did not hurt them. I know we are not hunting humans. Just because I slipped once doesn't mean I will again." I said with anger as I looked back outside. I saw the two people hesitate at the edge of the forest before running back in.

"Then what? You know you aren't afraid of any damn humans!" He demanded.

"Nothing, I just don't like them…but one seemed odd, like it wasn't human." I whispered to myself.

"Well, remember we start school tomorrow, you are gonna have to deal with humans." He said as went back into the living room. I just nodded to myself.

"Sweet, what is wrong? I don't like seeing my kids so sad." My mom asked as she came over and gave me a hug. I took in her appearance, she looked hungry and I saw the bags under her eyes. She is only a mere inch taller than me. She has deep chocolate brown eyes and the same color hair. I hugged her back and sighed.

"Nothing is wrong; I am just thirsty I guess." I sighed. "You should go sleep. What has it been like two weeks?"

"Then go hunt real quick, it might be a good idea if you hunted because of school tomorrow." She muttered as she walked back in the room. "Yes two weeks." She whispered to herself. I nodded and unlocked the door. I hesitantly took my keys from the hook and ran to my car. I quickly unlocked the car and jumped. I sat for a good five minutes before I started to car and slammed on the gas. I drove and drove and drove until I came to a nice forest. I shut off the engine, swiftly took the keys out and jumped out slamming the door in the process. I took off into the forest and became completely oblivious to my surroundings. I ran as fast as a speeding bullet. I let my instincts take over as I listened for a heart beat. I could smell a pack of dear. I felt a jolt of hunger and I took off after the deer and jumped right onto its back. It struggled a little but reluctantly stops as I snapped the neck and sucked the disgusting liquid flowing from its neck. I continued like this for about a half until I unwillingly felt full and started walking back to my car. I heard a loud growled but just ignored it as I continued on my walk. I heard the growl get louder and started running. I finally felt safe as I got to my car. I jumped in and locked the door. I as quickly as I could turn the car on and started back on the ride to my house. I felt safe as I saw the familiar woods. I kept driving, but I saw a red rusted truck sitting on the side of the road on the other side of the forest. I pulled over and opened the door slightly. I could hear those two voices. I slammed the door shut as I slammed on the brakes with a screeching sound. I took off on the road as I headed to the house.

I never felt as safe as I do now when I pulled up into the drive way to my house. I saw Ricky's head poke out of the door. He walked out just as I was pulling in. I quickly shut the car off and lunged myself into his arms, I don't know what that was in the forest, but I really shook me up. I just love being in my brothers familiar embrace. I felt him chuckle and step away.

"What? You missed me that much?" He asked with a chuckle. I just shrug. I saw him fidget. My brother isn't one to be the emotion showing person. That is the one thing we don't have in common, well that and our looks. He is about 6'3. He has dirty blonde hair that goes to his ears and piercing blue eyes. I just sighed,

"I just wanted to get home." I lied. I saw him nod and head over to the woods.

"Do you want to hunt with me?" He asked quickly.

"No, I just got back. Be careful." I said with a smile. He nodded and headed into the forest. I sighed and walked right into the house. I ran up to my bedroom. I sighed loudly as I plopped down onto the bed. I sighed. I snuggled into my black fluffy blanket and sighed again. My room completely reflected my personality. It is black with a big black bed and one side table. I jumped up and opened the closet. I pulled out all of my old posters. I had all Paramore, Flyleaf, Within Temptation, Thy Will Be Done, Pink, Green Day, Evanescence, Hana Pestle, and Seether posters. I put them all up quickly and then put all pf my book away. I had the simple stuff like Dracula and old war books. That didn't take long, so I took out my precious guitar and started playing

Here I stand
Empty hands
Wishing my wrists were bleeding
To stop the pain from the beatings

There you stood
Holding me
Waiting for me to notice you

But who are you
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Out-screaming these lies
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Saving my life

The warmth of your embrace
Melts my frostbitten spirit
You speak the truth and I hear it
The words are I love you
And I have to believe in you

But who are you
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Out-screaming these lies
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Saving my life

My hands are open
And you are filling them
Hands in the air
In the air, in the air, in the air

And I worship
And I worship
And I worship

You!

You are the truth (you are the truth)
Out-screaming these lies
You are the truth (you are the truth)
Saving my life

Red Sam Flyleaf

I sighed. I looked around my room. I quickly put everything away, I didn't even notice the sun come up, so I ran over to my jewelry case and took out my gold chain with the heart charm and my black roped necklace with a vile of 'vampire' venom on the end. I fastened the end and ran into my closet. I hastily pulled out a pair of blue skinny jeans and a Paramore tee shirt. I ran downstairs in record time.

"Time for Hell!!" I yelled as I ran to my car and waited for my brothers.
