I walked along the road, this time keeping closer to the woods, since I had already fed. There was no point to sticking to the road tonight. I saw lights ahead and it looked like they were coming from a truck; maybe a jeep. I made sure to go behind the tree line to avoid being seen. Once the truck got closer I could sense them; smell them and I got this feeling that they were just like me. I tensed up at the thought of seeing others like myself. I feared them. If we could kill humans like nothing, then I could only imagine what our kind could do to each other. I quickly hid behind a tree waiting for them to pass by, but instead, the jeep come to a stop. I realized that hiding behind a tree did no good, so I climbed up to the top. I looked down to see that four figures had gathered at the bottom right underneath me. A big bulky guy caught my attention first like if my instincts told me 'watch out for that one'. He was well built and had the face of a model. The way he moved was almost like a gazelle, but not as close as the other, much shorter girl who had black and pixie like hair. She truly moved like a gazelle; even more so than a gazelle if that was possible. Then there was two more; a girl and a guy who looked to be twins with the same blonde hair, but the girl was beyond gorgeous. The boy seemed mellower, yet his scars told my instincts 'watch out for that one' as well.

They all seemed to be gathered around the pixie girl. The big one stepped forward and sniffed the air. At first I thought my cover was up, but he seemed to be at a loss. I fought back a sigh that wanted to escape my lips; another unnecessary gesture.

"She was around here" He stated and the blonde girl slapped the back of his head

"We can smell, too" She said rolling her eyes while crossing her arms over her chest. She sighed very dramatically before speaking again,"Why are we looking for her? Anyways, I have better things to do"

She looked at her hands like they were the most interesting thing ever and the pixie girl rolled her eyes and then glared at her. The pixie girl wasn't looking so innocent anymore.

"Do you want to move again and start a new life?" She screamed in frustration at the blonde

The blonde just looked at her and glared at her in return as she turned away.

"Fine" The blonde said as another car arrived

A very handsome guy got out of the car and ran a hand through his hair looking around. He leaned against his shiny gray car. He almost looked as frustrated as the blond one, but he made it look sexy as if he was posing for a photo-shoot. He looked around some more as if searching for something before walking over to the pixie girl.

"This is getting ridiculous" He said to her

"Tonight is the night" She stated as she tapped her forehead and giggled

"Trust me" She added as she glided to the blonde boy and took his hand in hers walking away

I looked around for the other two that were also there, but they were now gone as well. I looked back to the boy and he just stood there. He was looking out to the distance in deep thought, unaware of his surroundings. I waited for him to walk off too, but he simply stood there still in thought. I wondered what had him so worked up. He was as frustrated or even more so than the blonde one. I wondered who they were looking for. I moved back slightly trying to hide in the shadows when he looked up suddenly. I froze still as our eyes meet. We looked at each other and it seemed like forever when finally someone noticed me.

"There she is!"

I was startled by the sudden recognition and I fell off the tree onto the boy. I heard laughing and I quickly got off of him. I stoop up brushing the dirt off of me as I noticed he had fallen down. I reached out my hand to him and he took it. It should have been a nice gesture, but when he took my hand it was as if electricity ran through us. We quickly let go of each other as if it had stung us, though it hadn't. I looked at him waiting to see if it he was going to say something, but he remained silent, looking at me intently. I finished dusting myself off as I smiled at him shyly.

'This was embarrassing' I thought

"Sorry" I mumbled quickly and turned to leave, but the big guy blocked my way and I frowned confused, "What the hell" I said as I tried to go around but he wouldn't let me

I ran past him and the speed shocked me. I knew I was fast, but not this fast. I stopped right in my tracks and I felt the wind catch up to me. I was looking at my feet when some one grabbed me and flung me over their shoulder and ran. I screamed and punched and kicked, but nothing made him budge. I even tried to bite him, but it had no effect. Then I finally found myself thrown onto a couch and I closed my eyes waiting for what was to come.

I heard footsteps and people sitting down, but I still kept my eyes closed. I felt a hand on my shoulder and by instinct I straightened up and looked forward. I opened my eyes and looked around the room to see the five same faces with two new ones. I sat alone on the large futon while the rest sat across from me. The older male spoke first.

"Hello, my name is Carlisle Cullen" He extended his hand for a shake but I simply looked at his hand and back at him. He retreated his hand and continued.

"This is my wife, Esme" He gestured to the woman sitting next to him

She was beautiful like snow white in the flesh. She had a warm smile on her face and she also extended her hand to me, but she soon took it back once she noticed I wasn't going to touch her.

"They are Jasper and Alice" He said gesturing to the blonde boy and the pixie girl

She stepped forward, but I scooted to the other side of the couch in response. She stepped back and I relaxed a bit. The blonde boy kept staring at me and giving me confused looks, but I shrugged it off.

"This is Emmett and Rosalie" He gestured to the blonde girl and big guy. They nodded at me and I simply stared at them.

"And this is Edward" He finally said gesturing to the youngest looking one who stood at the door way and was looking at me as if he was concentrating on something hard.

He finally let out a growl and I jumped to my feet. They all looked at me confused.

"So, who are you?" Carlisle asked, but I was too tense as I stared at Edward.

I slowly started to hunch over. I was aware of him as he was aware of me. I hadn't liked his growl and so now I was feeling defensive. He simply backed away slowly and I eased up.

"My name is Isabella Swan" I said and I quickly closed my mouth again. I was still getting used to my voice.

"We have a lot to discuss" He stated

"Like what?" I asked

"About your eating habits. We would appreciate it if you didn't hunt in our area" He said

His voice was monotone, but I got the seriousness of the conversation.

I was more confused then ever as I stared at him. I knew I was some type of monster, but they were like me right? Then what was so wrong with what I ate? That was really hypocritical of them. Did they just want the area to themselves?

"She has no idea what you're talking about" Jasper stated, "Do you?" He asked me and I simply shook my head

"You don't know what you are?" Esme said with sympathy and I looked down at my hands ashamed

"I'm a monster" I said and she looked sad.

'Sad for me?' I thought confused

"Sound like anyone we know?" Alice said smirking

Edward rolled his eyes and continued looking at me intently. I wasn't sure why he was so interested in me, but I didn't dislike it. It did make me slightly uncomfortable, though.

"You're a vampire" Carlisle said calmly and I nearly fell over if I could

"No way! You've got to be shitting me!" I said

Emmett seemed to find my reaction funny and started laughing which earned him a slap to the head by Rosalie. All eyes were on me and I was trying hard not to fall apart. I couldn't believe it. I was a vampire.

I guess I wasn't crazy. My theory was correct all along.
