Author's Note: And here's chapter 2, as I know chapter 1 didn't get very far. Maybe this will make it feel like the story is actually interesting.

Chapter 2

Maggie felt as exhausted as a vampire could ever feel when she got off that plane. And when she felt the woman watching her, as if about to escort Maggie out of the airport herself, Maggie rushed at a quick human speed as soon as possible, thankfully losing the annoying human in only a few minutes, plenty of time to change directions and make her connecting flight that would bring her a lot closer to Forks.

Unlike her last flight, this one was trouble free, and Maggie got to enjoy relative quiet as she stared out of the window. She was only spoken to once, and that was to ask if she wanted anything to eat or drink, and all Maggie did was have to decline, and that was it.

Why couldn't all planes be like this?

The second the plane landed and Maggie was released, she bounced out of the gate in excitement, to the point a few people were giving her strange looks. She didn't care, of course, and Maggie kept on grinning.

She was only a bit of a run from Forks, and then Maggie would start her mission. Her mission to...hm...she needed a cool name for this, didn't she? It was boring to just say she needed to find why the Cullens left. Operation: Uncover the Cullens' Secret. Eh, it wasn't her best mission name...she would probably have to come up with something better later.

Too eager to get started, Maggie didn't even bother with trying to rent or steal a car. Instead, she just headed out of the airport and walked at a normal human pace until she could find a secluded place with no humans or cameras, then took off running at full vampire speed to where she knew Forks was. As she ran, she hummed the Mission Impossible theme song to herself, which only served in getting her more hyped up.

It wasn't long until she passed the sign that said "Welcome to Forks" and Maggie did an excited little jump and fist pump as she ran. Then she realized it had been a long time since she had last contacted Siobhan and Liam. She paused deep in a forest as she checked her phone, only to get a surprise that she didn't have any missed calls or texts.

Could it be? Could Siobhan and Liam have finally realized that they should stop treating her like a baby?

Nah, that was impossible. They must have figured that she was still on the plane and that all texts and calls wouldn't reach her.

Maggie sent both of them a quick text to tell them she had landed and all was good.

Immediately, she got two replies, both asking the exact thing; Have you fed? This was quickly followed by another text, both also saying basically the same thing. Liam's said Are you absolutely sure you're safe? While Siobhan's said You're sure you're safe? Are you staying aware of your surroundings?

Geez, it was like they hadn't even spoken a word to each other before answering the text. Maggie knew they were together too, so they had to have heard that they had both gotten a text from her, but Maggie's guess was that they had been too worried about her to wait.

Yeah, I fed, stop your worrying. And of course I'm keeping a sharp eye out for anything weird, you two trained me, remember? Maggie texted to both of them, then added another text, which she also sent to both saying And how about you consult each other before you reply? You two asked me the exact same thing both times.

We worry about you was the reply she got from both of them. Then Siobhan added, I don't like you being by yourself more than necessary. If you're attacked, we're too far away to help you.

Maggie rolled her eyes, but also couldn't help but smile at the thought of her overprotective covenmates. I'm fine. And I'm about to start the investigation so I'm not gonna answer texts for awhile. Don't freak out. After sending that text to Siobhan alone, Maggie let out a noise that was a mix of sigh and giggle as her phone buzzed with a response immediately.

"Nope, sorry," Maggie said out loud. "But you two are the ones who gave me the mission, and I won't be gettin' anything done if I'm too busy texting you for the next few years tellin' you I'm still fine." With that, she pocketed her phone and started to run again, deciding to head to the Cullen mansion first. It was as good of a place to start as any, right?

She arrived there quickly enough, having been to the mansion once a long time ago. She checked the perimeter first, surprised not by the fact that it had clearly been abandoned for awhile, but by the fact that it was still untouched. She had figured that at least a vandal or two would have broken in and maybe taken something, or at least spray painted the place. Either nobody knew the mansion was here, or this town was filled with those goody two shoe youths who didn't want to risk stepping out of line.

Speaking of goody two shoes and vandals…

"Oops," Maggie said for nobody's benefit in particular as she grabbed the door handle and turned with enough force to snap the lock. She didn't have time, not to mention the patience, to check to see if they had left a spare key anywhere.

The door swung open and Maggie stepped inside, looking around the house with raised eyebrows. If it weren't for the layer of dust coating everything, anyone looking would have thought the Cullens had simply gone on a family outing and would be back any minute. Really, they must have left in one hell of a hurry, as it appeared they had left everything behind, and the electricity was even still working, something Maggie took note of as she turned on a nearby light before turning it off again. Even Emmett's playstation had been left behind. Well, Maggie's playstation now...at least for the duration of her stay. Because while Maggie was as honest as anyone could come to the point she was considered to have no brain to mouth filter, Maggie was still one to take advantage of any situation she found herself in. And an abandoned playstation was definitely a moment of opportunity Maggie couldn't pass up.

For a moment, Maggie considered pausing in her investigation to play on it for awhile, but thought better of it. She'd have plenty of time for that later, but for now, she had better search the house.

As it turns out, searching someone's house wasn't as nearly as exciting as cop TV shows made it look. Maggie had to scour each room, taking in every detail, making sure she didn't miss anything that could be evidence to whatever the Cullens could have been hiding or running from. It was extremely boring, with the best part being looking in each of the Cullens' closets and checking out their lingerie. Rosalie's was all sexy, of course, Edward's all boring and plain white, Emmett had some variety of boxers, Jasper was also an underwear type of guy, but a lot more adventurous than Edward, Alice had a mix of cute and sexy, Carlisle's underwear was nearly as boring as Edward's, and...ooh, Mrs. Cullen, aren't you a surprise? Maggie would never have thought that Esme could be any more exciting than Carlisle, but it seemed like she liked to take some risks with some of her underwear choices...and was that a whip?

Taking the whip out, Maggie practiced cracking it a few times, then returned it to the drawer with a giggle. Who would've thought the angelic mother could have such an interesting sex life? At least, that better be what that whip was used for.

With that done, Maggie fell back into boredom, and soon was finished scouring every inch of the house, and had come up empty handed, without a single clue as to why they had left. Also, the only thing the Cullens had taken with them were their computers, which made Maggie grumpy. The shows always made it clear that the computers were where you were most likely to find something incriminating.

"Now what?" Maggie grumbled out loud as she finally took out her phone to text a quick update to Siobhan and Liam, telling them that she was still fine and hadn't found anything about why the Cullens had left yet. She then checked the reply, rolled her eyes as she found Siobhan and Liam both told her to keep looking but to be careful and keep them updated, then pocketed her phone once more. As she tried to figure out how to continue her search, her gaze wandered to the playstation. Perhaps she should play a few rounds, loosen up her brain…

No! If Maggie gave in now, who knows how many days she'd end up playing for? She needed to at least find some lead, or else Siobhan and Liam might decide that one of them should do the job instead of her.

Reluctantly turning her back on the playstation, Maggie once again fell into deep thought. What was she supposed to do next?

Wait, in the cop shows, what did they do when they needed to find more information about something that had happened? They talked to witnesses, that's it! It was time for Maggie to go into Forks itself and start talking to people. But she'd have to be sneaky about it, sly. And since she was crap at lying, Maggie would just have to tell the truth in the most twisted way she could.

And Maggie would need to buy some kind of clothes along the way. Maybe she should have thought to pack a few outfits before running out of her house. Or…

This time, her gaze moved back upstairs instead of towards the playstation.

Alice and Maggie were about the same size, after all, and Alice's closet was absolutely huge, pretty much the size of Alice's room. Why go shopping when Maggie had so many outfits at her fingertips? It wasn't like Alice would mind, with how much she tried to dress up everyone around her.

Grinning to herself and bouncing in excitement, Maggie ran back upstairs to pull out a bunch of different clothes and set up a few outfits. She changed once, happy to get out of her clothes that stank of human sweat, and then happily posed in front of the mirror in a white shirt, black jacket, and black slacks. Damn, did Maggie look good! Not to mention, she definitely looked like a plain clothes detective, although she knew nobody would actually think she was one. Looking the part was definitely a necessary part of the mission, no matter how much Siobhan would roll her eyes if she had been told what Maggie knew to be true.

After a few more poses, Maggie once again headed back downstairs and out the front door. Maybe she should have gotten a car after all; it would make her look a lot less suspicious at least. But since she hadn't, she would just have to borrow one of the Cullen cars instead. While they did stand out, Maggie would just say that she's a family friend of the Cullens and staying at their house. No lie there, and she knew upon hearing that, most people would just assume that they had let her use the cars.

Of course Rosalie's car was gone, as there was no way she'd part with her baby, and Carlisle's car was gone too. Maggie was too tiny for Emmett's jeep, so seeing no choice, Maggie had to take Edward's silver volvo.

Running into the garage, Maggie got the proper tools that would allow her to pick the lock of the Volvo, then she got inside and got to work on hotwiring it. And no, Siobhan and Liam had no idea that she knew how to do either of those things, and Maggie would prefer it be kept that way.

Once everything was all nice and dandy, Maggie put the car into drive and started heading towards Forks. Only to realize how small the town was and how many people were looking at the car, so she parked in a secluded area, got out, and decided to start trying to find people to talk to on foot.

While everywhere she went people stared, and seemed dazed by her accent, not one person looked at her in suspicion. To top it off, they were all incredibly friendly, open, and honest to the point even Maggie found it ridiculous. Really, her gift didn't go off even once, which meant not a single person even told a single white lie about anything. Shouldn't they be a little more guarded?

At first, Maggie focused on stores, knowing there would be more people inside. A lot of people seemed confused as to why she was asking about the Cullens, until she explained she knew them and was now living at their house, but that they never told her why they left. And apparently every person she asked didn't know why they had left either. Not a single person knew a thing, and it was making Maggie incredibly frustrated. That is, until Maggie thought to change up her question while in the middle of a conversation with a high school aged blonde boy who looked like a puppy. He had been grumbling about how stupid Edward was, seeming to hate the guy personally, and it was enough to give Maggie an idea. Instead of just asking if he knew why the Cullens had left, Maggie also asked if any of the Cullens might have left something behind.

She got an answer immediately. It appeared that the Cullens had left behind a girl named Bella Swan.
