A/N: Okaaaaaaaay! Sooo, here's the official chapter one! Still wanna know who this mysterious person is? Well you're about to find out!
Meeting
It was time to hunt. I had spent all week non stop trying to track these people down with almost no luck. It would have been a good idea to ask the source of my information how or where to locate them but I was too eager to think of it. Eager to leave that wretched place that is. I was amazed at how long I was able to go without hunting but by now my throat felt like it was going to burn to ashes if I didn't find something to feed on.
I leaned my white backpack against a tree trunk and decided to wait for my prey. I didn't want them to be put through a terrifying misery when death came to them. It was cruel. I waited for five minutes and suddenly, I saw her. A ferocuious looking mountain lion danced slowly and gracefully through the bushes. My eyes lit up. Carnivores were always best. And then, I pounced. When I landed on her back she growled fiercely. I'd dragged her down with the impact of my body and it sent us tumbling through the bushes.
'I'm sorry' I said in my mind before my teeth cut through the jugular. A loud shriek of a growl was cut off with a gurgle and it was all over.
I got up and dusted myself off and began picking the twigs out of my black locks that now hung to my waist. When I looked up I could not believe my eyes.
Three people or rather vampires, stood before me. A beautiful, bronze-haired boy who looked to be in his late teens at most stood beside a girl with thick brown hair of approximately the same age. They both stood protectively in front of what had to be the most beautiful little girl in the world. Her long ringlets were the same color as the boy's and, like mine, hung to her waist. They all looked like they saw a cow fall out of the clear blue sky. It had to be the funniest thing I ever saw.
'Oh my gosh! Quick! Someone call the Volturi!' I mocked in my mind.
The boy with the bronze hair smirked and looked quite amused. I looked at him and smiled.
'You can here me can't you?' I thought.
He straightened out of his crouch and nodded. And with that I blocked all of the unpleasant thoughts about a certain people from my mind.
"Edward," the woman said, still crouched protectively in front of the child. Hmmm...where had I heard of the name Edward before?
"It's okay, Bella," he reassured her. As the sound of the little girl's fluttering heartbeat reached my ears - and set my throught dimly aflame - I realized who they were. These strange vampires were two of the Cullens. Edward and Bella - the names rung a definite bell. And the baby - Renesmee. These were the people who I have been looking for. I had been wanting them to help me with my crazy ability. I sighed.
Edward raised and eyebrow questioningly, but I just shook my head and stared at the ground.
"Who are you?" he finally spoke.
"I am Kendra," I answered formally "And you must be Edward, and Bella and Renesmee."
"Yes. Why were you searching for us?" he asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"Ever since I was turned about a month ago, I've noticed something...different about me. And so, I set off to find someone that can tell me how to control my 'gift' properly. During my travels I was told about your talented family. So I sought you out."
"You cannot control it?" the woman named Bella spoke this time.
"Uh...yes and no," I said hesitantly. I allowed flickers of what I was capable of flicker in my head, bringing up a picture of the most recent person who had fallen to my knees. I recoiled from the image as soon as I knew he's seen.
"And you believe Carlisle can help you," Edward said. It wasn't a question. I nodded. He sighed. "He would be put out with me if he knew I'd turned you away. I'm sure he would be interested in meeting you."
"Really?" I was so excited I could burst. I noticed that I was bouncing up and down and stopped to calm myself. Edward was chuckling and Bella looked amused. The beautiful little girl, Renesmee, was giggling softly, now beside her mother instead of behind. I wonder what my excited outburst did to calm the tension. Edward studied me for another long moment and I squirmed under his abruptly intense stare.
"Yes, you may come home and speak to Carlisle and the rest. Come now, it's not far," he said half turned, ready to run.
This day had finally come. The day I would solve the mystery within me. I was going to meet Carlisle nd the rest of the Cullens and they would help me do just that. I was so excited to meet them but...
"Wait," I whispered.
"What is it?" Bella said now, concerned, her eyes immediately darting around.
"What if they don't like me? What if they don't trust me?" I said, terrified at the thought that could not help me.
"Of course they're not going to trust you right away, but I'm sure once you show them that you are not danerous and that you mean no harm, they'll treat you as if you were a Cullen yourself." When she said the last part, it made me feel even better than when I first saw them! I ran back to go get my backpack I had left against the trunk of the tree. When I came back we all sprinted towards the east, towards the Cullen house.
A/N: sO! What did you think? Will Kendra ever be able to unlock the mistery within her? How will the Cullens react to her presence and her gift? Chapters will get longer as the story goes on. And also, you see that cool little blue button down there? I promise it does not bite! So just go on and press it and tell me what you think about Confessions!
