MoonlessNightXx owns no part, characters or plot, of the 'Twilight' saga. All material belongs the author Stephanie Meyer.

Hey loves, I can't believe the response I got from you all yesterday and today! I had 19 new e-mails from all of you and I just posted that chapter up yesterday! I can't tell you how thrilled I am that I have so many supporters when my chapters are so short and I bore you with the A/Ns. lol But it's you guys that all keep me going, even when I have horrible cases of writers block, or with my Internet going down, or being really busy with school work and studies, or even with an infected cut that hurts really bad, especialy when I type. It's all you guys.

Now interupting this gushey-lovey author's note to bring you the real entertainment you actually came here for.

The Meeting

I reached my hand down to splash the water.

When the ripples died away she was still there, looking up at me. I waved my hand in the air. She did the same.
Creepy.

I raised my hand once more, she did the same, but this time I stopped in front of my face. I examined it, and somehow it didn't seem quite the same. It was full of color and life. I turned my hand over and back again, but couldn't decide what could have made such a change. A thought occured to me, a frightening thought. I raised my hand up to my neck.

I had a pulse.

I needed a mirror, a mirror to confirm my beliefs. To the nearest village I ran, ran as fast as my legs would carry me, stopping and the outskirts of town. I walked, human speed, down a long row of houses each one seemed to have lights on or sounds of someone turning over in sleep, rustling the covers, breathing.

I finally came to an empty house near the end of the road and scaled the closest wall with an open window. I jumped silently in, as to not wake the neighboring houses. I walked down a large, wide hallway, with doors on either side, opening each one and then closing it quietly. Finally, at the end of the hall, I reached a door that seemed to enter a little girl's room.

'Somewhere,' I thought, 'somewhere, there should be a mirror.'I looked around the shelves, cupboards, and finally on the nightstand where I found my prize; a silver mirror with little stones on the handle. I thought of the girl again long blond hair flowing, pale blue eyes shining, I looked again in the mirror and it was her. No, I was her.

I couldn't believe it. Couldn't understand how this could be. I took the mirror with me, hoping it wouldn't be missed. I ran into the trees again and slept, not the kind of sleep you would think of, no, not human sleep. Think sleep, my only refuge.

I thought of my mother and father, and Dr. Kayson. How I wished he was here, with me now, he would know. He would know what was happening to me, he would know how to explain it to me, he would know.

That man, what had Dr. Kayson called him? James. I would kill him, if there was a way to kill a vampire. I would kill James and his mate too, the one who had killed my parents. I would find them and kill them, but, of course, first I would have to find them. And that would be near impossible.

Daylight came once again for me. As the first bit of light shown through the trees over head, I smiled. Celebrated internally, dawn was my favorite time of the day, aside from twilight. There was something I had read somewhere, it was... inspirational, saying that dawn is a time of renual, I clean slate. I grinned, that was a truly pleasant idea for me. A clean slate, a new start, things that once seemed very possible, now seemed a million miles away.

Through the night I thought, and I believed something may have happened to me during my change. Other than obvioulsy changing from innocent prey, to not so innocent predator; I obtained an ability to take the shape of another, to look like them, sound like them if I wished, and take on traits. A theory, only, but I couldn't think of any other way to explain it. And if I am now a creature that I once believed to be myth, I don't think having a special...ability be too far off.

I would need to learn to control myself, train myself to act more human, and look like one too, maybe I could do some research, go to a library...maybe.

Was it good, loves.

And how did you like the super fast update speed. I think it's a new record for me.

I think it might deserve some...reviews?

Thanks everyone for your suppory my lovely reviewers and people who add me to favorite author and story lists.
