VICTORIA POV

I couldn't believe the way James was carrying on about a stupid human. Yet here we were, sitting in some ridiculous bar, as he made eyes at her across the room. Why he didn't just wait till she walked out, bite her, and bring her back with us was beyond me. The girl finally noticed him when one of her friends nudged her and she smiled shyly at him. He stood and walked over to her, I chose to tune out whatever asinine conversation they had, focusing my attentions on the bottle of beer in front of me. "I can't believe I'm drinking this piss water." I said bitterly to Laurent.

"Yes well, we may not be able to stomach human food, but at least we can still get drunk with them." Laurent laughed, raising his glass. He was so positive all the time it was slightly sickening.

"This girl is going to bug the shit out of me, Laurent. First of all, that whole shy act is going to get old fast, and secondly, she's drinking wine. In a bar. Wine Laurent. You drink liquor or beer at a bar, not wine. I just know I'm going to end up beating the crap out of her within a few weeks, and then James will be so upset that I hurt his new toy." I bitched and moaned, mostly just to hear myself.

Laurent chuckled at me. "We shall see, Victoria. Perhaps she will provide enough distraction that James will stop playing with his food so much." James would feed much more often than necessary, sleeping with the filthy humans before draining them. I preferred the arrangement Laurent and I had. We treated the humans as food, and whenever we had a sexual need, we would help each other out. It was cleaner. I rolled my eyes as the girl laughed softly at something James said. He kissed her hand lightly, gag me, then headed back over to us.

"Let's go. We'll be seeing her later tonight." He said with a smile.

"About damn time." I said, finishing my beer. We walked out and headed to the apartment building this human lived in to wait for her.

JAMES POV

IT was too easy to get my darling to set up a date for tomorrow, and give me her address. I made a mental note to teach her to not be so trusting as we crawled into the window. We heard a key in the lock and hid ourselves in the shadows. My beautiful prize walked in alone, tossing her keys on the counter. She went to the kitchen, making herself a glass of water, I made sure her front door was locked, and waited for her to come back. She stopped as she saw me, dropping the glass on the wood floor, shattering it.

"How did you get in here?" She demanded, narrowing her eyes at me. I didn't smell any fear coming from her... yet.

I smiled at her. "I just wanted to see you." I said staring her deep in the eyes. My vampire charm began to work it's magic and by the time she took a breath, I was inches from her. "You are enchanting." I said touching her cheek. She snapped back to reality, backing up, right into Victoria and Laurent.

"What do you want?" She asked, a slight quiver in her voice as the delicious smell of fear mixed with the scent of her blood.

"I just want you." I said with another smile. Her eyes widened, and she tried to side step out from between us. I grabbed her wrist, hearing the bone shatter. She started to scream, but Victoria threw her palm over her mouth.

"Shut up." Victoria hissed at her. "Hurry up James, get it over with."

I pulled my lovely to me pressing my body against hers. "If you scream, you will be dead in seconds." I lied. Of course I wouldn't kill her, but I would have to punish her somehow if she didn't listen. I kissed her neck lightly, licking and nibbling down to her collar bone.

She whimpered softly, "please don't do this," as I pressed my hardness against her leg. Laurent and Victoria both whipped their heads up, spreading out through the apartment as we heard a soft noise. I knew it was the nosy vegetarians, and that I needed to take care of them. I would have to wait to pleasure her until after she was changed. I bit into her, savoring her delicious nectar that filled my mouth. I forced myself to pull away as she started to scream in pain, my venom slowly working it's way through her body. I let go of her, and she fell to the floor, clutching the wound I inflicted with her good hand, breathing heavily, tears streaming down her face.

I turned to see Emmett coming for me, and rushed to meet him. We collided, trying to wrestle each other to the ground. The damn Bambi eater refused to let up, and was soon joined by Rosalie, my ex and a real bitch. She clawed at me, giving Emmett an opening to sucker punch me. I glanced up to see Alice pick up MY mate, and leave with her. I tried to follow, but Rosalie and Emmett would not let me pass. We fought viciously, and paused for a split second when we heard sirens. I took the opportunity to escape through the window with Victoria and Laurent. We ran through the back alleys, and I grabbed the first human I saw, draining him and breaking his neck, before we made it back home. I was angrier than I could ever remember being. How dare they take her!

ROSALIE POV

The smell of the meat bag's blood was almost too much to handle. Alice and Edward ran to the car, putting her in it and driving away. The rest of us chose to run back home, hoping her blood was mostly changed by the time we got back. When we walked in, she was being tended to by Carlisle. She had fallen unconscious from the pain of the venom, which was a good thing, as her screams would have driven me crazy. We had at least 6 hours before she would be through the change, and I took the opportunity to hunt. I was joined by Esme and Jasper, and we stalked various prey through the Vermont wood, until our eyes were back to the bright amber color. Esme made sure to get some blood to take with us for our newest charity case when she woke. We got back, looking at the girl who whimpered every so often as she would toss and turn. She was almost through, and she was already beautiful. Damnit, I was the pretty one. Alice was the cute one, I was the pretty one! This girl would throw everything off balance. Jasper knelt down beside her, taking her hand in his as he tried to soothe her. I rolled my eyes, he knew that his power only worked on emotion, not physical pain. I started to walk away from this disgusting display, when I heard the former human sit up. Everyone in the coven gathered around as she blinked several time, presumably getting used to her much clearer and sharper vision. She looked at us and quickly stood, backing away.

"Who are you?" She said with a very slight southern accent. Great, another damn southerner, Jasper will be thrilled.

"My name is Alice, and this is Esme, Carlisle..." Alice began but was cut off by our rude house guest.

"What's wrong with me? I'm so... I can hear everything, I can see everything, I can smell... I'm so thirsty." She started rambling as she crossed the room quickly.

"Well when James bit you, you were changed to a vampire." Emmett said bluntly.

The girl laughed unbelieving, raising her eyebrows. "I have to get out of here." She said grabbing the door handle, and pulling the front door off its hinges. She looked at it in shock, before dropping it and running out.

? POV

The speed I was running at should have been impossible. Then again, it should have been impossible for me to rip a door off the wall. The words of the strangers I woke up to ran through my head. I was so damn thirsty, hungry, I wasn't sure what to call it. I slowed as I smelled something delicious. I followed it to see a man, not much older than myself, jogging down the road. I knew I was smelling the blood in his veins, and I wanted it. But, I couldn't kill someone. I felt bad about killing the occasional spider. The need coming over my body however, told me I could and would kill him. As I made the choice to attack him, I was tackled to the ground by the most beautiful man I'd ever seen. It was similar to feeling run over by a truck. He had been in the group I had woken up to, but hadn't spoken to me.

"Don't." He said, his eyes pleading with me, I felt a sense of calm come over me, but I still needed that blood. I felt that I would die without it. While the beautiful man above me continued holding me down, another one handed him a large glass bottle filled with a dark liquid. I could smell that it was blood, but it wasn't running through a body, and it didn't smell nearly as wonderful as the jogger. He held it up to my lips, and I drank, the feeling of thirst started to dissipate. He let go of me as I took the bottle, finishing it in a matter of seconds. I sat looking up at them, and he held his hand out, pulling me up easily. "Come with us, please." He said to me, motioning back to the direction the house I had ran from was. I looked back in the direction the jogger was heading, I could still faintly smell him, and barely hear his feet hitting the pavement, then back to the group of strangers. I started walking, and they joined me, no matter how quickly I went, they kept up, confirming my suspicions that whatever I was, they were too.

"What's your name?" the gorgeous man that saved me from killing a person asked.

"Virginia." I answered, smiling slightly at his accent. Another southerner in Vermont.
