I called Jake all day and no one picked up. I couldn't believe it. I was also worried. Is something wrong with Jake? I decided to call one more time before I got in my truck and went over there to see for myself.

I picked up the phone and it rang once. Twice. Three times. Four times. Five times. I went for my keys and was about to hang up when someone answered.

"Hello" It was Billy.

"Hey Billy its Bella. Is Jacob home?"

"No." He answered quickly.

I frowned. "When will he be back?"

"I don't know." He said but on his last word I heard Jake in the background. It sounded like he was growling but I still knew it was him.

"I hear him Billy." I said getting angry.

"He doesn't want to talk to you." Billy countered nastily.

"Plea—"

"I sorry Bella I have to go." He said cutting me off.

I heard the line go dead. What is happening? Why doesn't he want to talk to me? I stood there in silence for a couple of minutes. I felt warm streaks on my cheeks and realized that I have been crying.

This hurt. Not as bad as when He left me but Jake was my sun now. What am I supposed to do without him?

Without thinking I grabbed my keys and headed for the door. I didn't even grab my coat. When I got in the truck I turned it on and hit the gas not bothering to turn the heat on. How could Jake do this to me?

I knew I was going to fast for my truck and hope that I wouldn't permanently damage it, but what else could I do? I had to see Jacob.

When I got to his house I jumped out of the still running truck and jogged to his door.

"Jacob." I called knocking. Now one answered.

"Jake." I called again this time banging on his door.

Still no one answered. I looked in the window and didn't see any movement. I stated to cry.

"Jake" I yelled over and over while pounding on his door. I am not sure how long I did this but after a while I through myself at the door and slid down it, crying. I curled up on his porch and cried like I haven't for a long time.

Eventually my tears turned to sobs and gasps. It was raining hard now. I stood up and started back for my still running truck. Halfway there a thought came to me. Maybe Jake was in his gauge and just didn't hear me calling.

I turned and ran for it, slipping a couple of times on the way. When I got there I ripped the door open and surged in. He wasn't there. I looked around the gauge and all the memories of Jake hit me at once. I felt like I had gotten punched in the stomach.

I started to cry again. I had lost two of the most important people in my life. I started to get woozy so I grabbed a hole of the first thing I could, determined not to fall again. I looked down as saw I had a hold of my bike.

Instantly I grabbed the handles and pushed up the kickstand up. Bella, put the bike back, He ordered. I ignored him. I rolled it out of the gauge and onto the road, ignoring my sputtering truck.

I got on and started it the way Jacob had showed me. I didn't care that I didn't even any protective gear on, not even a helmet. I just needed to get away. I let go of the clutch and flew down the road, throwing up dirt and gravel. HE was yelling at me in my head the whole time.

The rain felt like needles poking my face and arms but I ignored that pain. Other parts of me hurt more. It was twilight now. The day was giving way to night. My world was flying by. I have no idea were I am or how long I have been drive. I suddenly saw two bright lights ahead.

I was still crying and everything was blurred. I didn't register what the lights were until I heard the honking of a horn. It woke me from my trance and I panicked. Bella! His beautiful voice screamed worriedly. I lost control of the bike and started to skid on the road. The truck smashed into me and I went flying in front on it.

I landed on the ground a few feet from the truck but it didn't stop. I left the tiers of the truck crushing my legs and chest. I lay there dying. The truck didn't come back. I blacked out.

"We can just leave her here." I head heard a girl say. "Is not right."

"Yes it is Kayla." A man said. "People die like this all the time."

"But she hurt and more than just her body." Kayla said defensively.

"That doesn't change anything." The man said trying to stay in control.

"You should feel what I do right now." Kayla said suddenly very sad.

The man sighed loudly. "I don't think Robert will be happy with this."

"I don't care. I can't let her die. She's special. I can feel it."

Then I felt myself getting scooped up by something cold and hard. The movement hurt so bad I let out a wail of pain before blacking out again.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Out of nowhere I felt a rush of heat coming from the inside of my elbow. The heat soon turned scolding and I let out a whimper though my soar throat. The heat intensified and soon I felt like I was being burned alive.

"Shhh." I heard a soothing voice and a cool touch on my face. "It will end." The stranger promised.

As the fire became worse I screamed loader than I thought possible. I am in hell. I am burning in hell. I kept thinking to myself. Every time I yelled in pain the noise started to get closer to a growling hiss.

Suddenly the fire amplified to where I thought my whole body was going to burst. "Edward!" I screamed. He name broke through all the fire and I felt an even worse pain in my chest.

"Hush." A voice instantly said. "Everything will be ok."

I felt like I had been there for years, burning alive. Abruptly the flames started to recede little by little until it was gone completely. All that was left was the pain in my chest. I squeezed my eyes shut.

"Its ok." A familiar voice said breaking through the silence. "You're ok now."

I moaned. My throat hurt so badly. It was dry and cracked.

I opened my eyes to see a girl about my age, looking down at me. She smiled when I finally focused on her.

I instantly knew she was a campire. Her pale skin was flawless and she had long beautiful, red wavy hair. I also noticed that her eyes were the topaz color I was used to, not crimson red.

"How do you feel?" She asked frowning a little.

I cleared my throat. "Thirsty." I answered.

She laughed bells and came to sit beside me on the couch. She wrapped her arms around me and squeezed.

"I am so happy." She said smiling again. "You're special. I know it."

I wiggled out of her embrace and looked at her inhuman face, confused. Images of riding my bike and seeing head lights suddenly filled my head.

"W-What happened?" I asked shakily. I realized my voice sounded different. Even though my throat was sore my voice was like... like velvet. Like Edward's. I started shaking my head, I couldn't understand it.

"You were hit by a truck." A male voice chimed in.

I looked up at the most beautiful vampire. He had blonde curly hair and was a little bit more muscular than Edward but not as much as Emmet. He was taller than Edward, too. He raised an eyebrow and I realized I had been staring. I turned away quickly and waited for the blushing to come. It didn't. I heard a low chuckle.

"You were going to die." The girl said slowly. "I couldn't just leave you there."

I gasped. "You turned me into a vampire?!"

I stared at her in disbelief and shock. That was what I had wanted so badly. But would it be the same without Edward. Both the girls's and the guy's eyes widen.

"You know about vampires?" The guy asked regaining his composure.

"Yes." I said sadly looking down at my hands. "I am... I WAS in love with ine." I paused for a second. "But he left."

Both of them looked at me questionably. I sighed and told them most of the story of my beloved Edward's and my strong but short relationship.

"And then he left." I finished. "And he didnt come back."

"I am so sorry." The girl said. She looked uncomfortable for a second then asked, "What's your name?"

I laughed. The sound of my laughter surprised me and I jumped a bit. Then the other two started to started to laugh and I joined in again.

"Bella." I answered finally calm enough to get it out.

"Nice to meet ya Bella." The girl said. "I'm Kayla and that is Brandon." She indicated to the vampire god.

He gave a little crooked smile. I gasped a little. It was almost identical to Edwards. I was really starting to like not blushing.

"Hi." I said shyly.

"You have to meet Richard, Cyrus, and Robert." Kayla said standing up while grabbing my hand and forcing me up as well. "They are going to love you."

I followed her outside on the porch, my own movement startling me at first. Wrestling in the yard were three more vampires. They were smashing each other and it all looked very painful but they were laughing. They stopped when they realized we were watching. They looked at me cautiously.

I gave them a reticent smile.

"Guys this is Bella." Kayla said smiling.

"Hi" They all said at once.

Brandon, who had silently came up behind us, started shaking his head. I hid a laugh.

"I'm Cyrus." They vampire had very short red hair and was tall but scrawny. He looked a lot like Kayla and I wondered it they were related by blood.

Next to him was a large vampire. He was just a big as Emmet. His hair was dark brown and he had the aura of being in charge. "Robert" he said raising a hand slightly. He didn't seem sure of me.

On the other side of Cyrus was a smaller vampire. He was the smallest one there and looked to be about sixteen. He had light brown shaggy hair that he had to keep swishing out of his eyes. "Richard." He said smiling.

I smiled at them all.

"You don't seem upset about what happened to you." Robert stated walking towards us. "Or even surprised that vampires are real or anything."

"She was in love with a vampire." Cyrus said out of nowhere. Robert turned to him questionably. "He left her though and she hasn't seen him since."

"He can go to the past." Kayla explained giving him a 'show off' look.

"Oh." Was all I could say.

Again I told the story of me and Edward. I longed for him even more as I was and Kayla seemed to notice and put an arm around me.

"And that's about it." I finished again. "He doesn't love me and never has. And he never came back."

"It's o–" Kayla was saying but all of the sudden everything slipped way.

"But why." Kayla asked.

She was grabbing a hold of an mans arm. Tears running down her face. Her cloths were tattered and worn. She looked like someone right out of and Old England movie.

"Because that's just the way it is." The man said forcing her to let go and then walking away.

Then those images were fading just as suddenly as they came.

Everyone else started to come back in focus. They were all looking at me shocked.

"What just happened?" I asked shakily.

"You saw a vison." Cyrus said frowning. "I saw the same thing and you were right there with me."

Everyone looked very confused.

"Um... that's not normal, is it?" I asked crinkling my nose.

"No it isn't." Cyrus said exaggerating his shocked expression.

I moaned. "Why can't I ever be normal?"

I heard Brandon chuckle a little and I ignored him. I was a vampire now and I still wasn't normal. What is wrong with me?

"I told you she was special." Kayla said smugly.

Everyone else smiled and coma over to me. The rest of that day and night I learned what everyone else's power was, from experience. Cyrus could go into the past, not just see it but he could feel what the people were. Kayla could feel the power of everyone around her. Richard could move things with his mind. Brandon could create illusion. The only vampire that didn't have a power was Robert. Even thought he was the only powerless vampire there he was without a doubt the leader.

As it turned out I am special, just as Kayla said. I could absorb the powers of those around me. I had a limitation though; I could only use the power if the vampire was close to me.

20 years later

I was rummaging through my clutter room look for my backpack. I couldn't find it anywhere. Final I noticed it was sitting right by my door. I narrowed my eyes instantly suspicious. I would have noticed it there before.

"Brandon!" I yelled. He didn't answer. "Oh don't even try to act like you can't hear me!"

I heard a low chuckle and knew he was laughing at me outside on the porch.

"Yes, dear?" He asked causally.

"Where is my bag?" I snarled.

We had just moved to the little town of New Florence, Washington. It was the closed to Forks I had been since I was changed. I felt the need to go check on Charlie but knew it was not a good idea.

Richard laughed. "Come on down, Bells. I have it."

I smiled suppressing a laugh of my own. I should have known.
"Shot gun." I said while running to the car.

I was there in less than a second, opening the passenger said door, cutting Brandon off. He gave me the crooked smile I love and now thought of as his and not Edwards. In fact I haven't thought of Edward in a long time.

"Just wait till next time." He whispered in my ear. Then he got in behind me.

I smiled and slide in the front seat. I loved my family. We were very close and protective of each other. I learned to control my power and theirs, with a lot of help. I also managed to get through my whole vampire life without tasting human blood. It doesn't even bother me anymore.

"Another year, another school." Robert said hitting the gas.

Everyone laughed. That was our motto.

"God, I hope this school is better than the last one." Richard said whipping his hair back.

"Yeah." Cyrus butted in." "I couldn't stand all those humans talking at once like that."

"Well this is a small school." Kayla said optimistically playing with a strand of her red hair.

I laughed. "Yeah it will be quieter but you'll have the same girls to deal with everyday."

"Yeah." Richard said frowning a little. "That is going to get boring."

We all laughed again.

"You'll have the same problem." Brandon said kicking the back of my seat.

"Hey!" I shouted turning to hit him, laughing.

"Ok guys." Robert said stopping our arguing. "Calm down we're here now."

Brandon gave my seat one more little kick. I smiled. I loved them all.

We got out in a swift movement and instantly smelled it. We all looked at each other.

"Vampires." Robert said.

We sniffed the air and turned in the direction it was coming from. I froze in place. Across the parking lot was another group of vampires. Five of them. All very familiar to me. I zoned in on Edward. He looked annoyed at first but when our eyes met surprised took all of his features. I couldn't believe it. I was so shocked I forgot my control and jumped back intime.

"Be very still," he whispered.

Slowly, never moving his eyes from mine, he leaned towards me. He rested his cheek softly against my throat.

His hands slide down the sides of my neck. I shivered. He stopped his hands on my shoulders.

His face drifted side to side, his nose skimming across my collarbone. He came to rest with the side of his face pressed tenderly against my chest. He stayed there listening to my heart.

I came back to the present, focusing again on Edward. His eyes were so hard, emotionless. Like the last time I saw him.

"You don't want me?" I asked in disbelief.

Edwards eyes were cold and dark. "No."

I came back again. This time his eyes were full of sorrow.

"Bella." Brandon said coming beside me and putting an arm around me. "Bella, honey, focus."

I closed my eyes and took at deep breath. I haven't lost control in a long while and I was irritated that just the site of Edward could do this to me.

I realized I had been holding my breath and breathed in deeply. That was all in the past. None of that matter anymore. I have moved on. He moved on. I have a new life, a new family. I felt my control gradually come back.

"Good job, Bella." Brandon said squeezing a little.

I opened my eyes. Edward was still staring right at me, his face distorted in an undefined expression.

My world was crashing down.
