Disclaimer: I only own what isn't in the book
e.g. most of Bella's awesome new powers.


Vampires. Most are cruelly taken away from life as to join the living dead by other vampires. My daughter was different; she was always different. No one really knew how much so for the first 10 years of her life. No one knew until she died.


Bella POV

Forks, Washington. The rainiest place in America. Why me? I questioned myself for the 100th time today. Renee said it would do me good to stop having to use my powers to just be able to relax, not to have to worry, she also had other obligations.; Phil. Obviously she didn't talk much about how much she missed Phil while he was on baseball tour, only that it would do me good to see Charlie.

How I hated Charlie, amazing I know, I hate my own father. Well who wouldn't, you turned into a monster at the age of 10, he knows what you are and forces your own mother to swear not to tell you then I'm sure you would hate him too.

It has been 10 years since that birthday. That horrible day that changed my life for ever. I reach the age of 20 in 2 days but know I will never look like I have even lived on this earth that long. After that day all those years ago I was never the same I started an exhilarated growth period where in just 3 years I went from looking like an innocent 10 year old to a breathtaking 17 year old. Basically I have also looked 17 for the passed 7 years. Moving house again and again so that people don't realise that I'm not ageing. I know what your thinking stuck in the prime of life, never getting old; every girls dream right. Maybe that's true but if anyone was stuck in this life then they would be living their worst nightmare.

Don't think I haven't tried research on the subject of what I am I have lists of everything that changed that night:

My eyes vary from plum purple to black. It depends on how dominant the burn in my throat is - unless of coarse I have my shield down, but then I feel venerable.

My skin. Luminous, magical, moonlit coloured porcelain, the smoothest thing I have ever felt.

How even things like twigs and stones under my bear feet can possibly feel like the softest of velvet.

My teeth, the scariest thing that I have ever seen or could possibly imagine in my wildest nightmares, they are sharp and menacing, a curse, through my eyes, they are a magnificent, bleached white and are filled with a deadly poison.

Super speed, I can move incredible distances in seconds, consequently I now have a need for speed.

Super strength, I can lift trucks with ease, once when we were loading up a moving truck to move house I tried to see if I could pick it up with my bear hands after it had been loaded. I crept under and picked it up with out breaking a sweat.

I no longer sweat.

I'm pretty indestructible.

I am graceful and not once have tripped in the past 10 years. A miracle to last an hour without being awarded at least 10 scratches or bruises in my old body.

How as I grew in those 3 years the colour in photos stopped showing. Now that I've stopped growing when my picture is taken, the whole picture comes out in black and white, it doesn't matter what kind of camera it is.

I can't sleep.

I don't need to breath it's just a habit.

Normal food, even my old favourites taste terrible and they end up coming back up just hours later.

Instead of eating normal food like everyone else I end up hunting animals, my only weapons, my teeth and bear hands. You would think that would be dangerous, and deadly stupid, but my weapons are much more than enough. I leave the carcase and raw meat in holes I dig. All I need is the blood. You would think it obvious; you drink blood, your immortal, you're a vampire. I researched that, but nothing fit, I don't burn in the sunlight, garlic smells just as bad as any other food, I cant turn in to a bat, (believe me I did try,) there's no way a steak could even pierce my skin, I don't sleep in a coffin, (as I said before I don't even sleep,) my eyes are purple not red, my hair is not black it is brown with reddish hi-lights, I hate the colour black. Therefore I am not a vampire.

I get distracted easily, as you can see.

And now the worst thing is happening. I am being sent to most wet, green, parasite infested place in America. Just because I hate seeing Phil play baseball. It's not my fault any one would be fed up if you had to watch your step dad hit baseballs and be praised when you knew how much better you could do with your super strength.

I climbed off the plane to see Charlie waving a sign with my name on it. Didn't he know what his own daughter looked like, I guess not. I walked over and hugged him; he hugged back, and then led me over to collect my suitcases.

When we finally got out of the airport and into his police cruiser he started talking. He asked how I had been, how phoenix was, how mum was, all I wanted was for him to shut-up. I'm not a very expressive person, as you can see. I am uncomfortable with expressing my feelings, particularly around Charlie.

Ability:

Empathy: upon looking into ones eyes can see there deepest emotions and thoughts.

Precognition: Falls in to a trance sleeping like state where her powerful subconscious sends her "visions" on things she may need to know.

Able to admit powerful shields that may never have no certain number of manipulative uses.

Example

She can put them onto people so said person is immobilised, she can do this to any creature, and as many as she wants, she could also – if need be - only immobilise certain parts of the body.

She can have it block out certain things, e.g. she put a shield around herself that only blocks out the sun and therefore can be seen in sunlight without those around her seeing her "sparkle."

She can put herself and others into shields and manipulate the shields so that they can't be seen, heard, smelt or touched.

She can use the shields to move things.

Illusion - She can change how she looks.

(Side affect): If a picture is taken and she is featured then none of the colour in said picture develops.

Contact with other magical creatures: None. She also doesn't know what she is.

Species: Half vampire, creature of the "Hebrew prophecy of Atiennus."

"They only want us to keep an eye on her." Carlisle said obviously seeing my expression.

"I don't see why she needs a babysitter. How are we supposed to know who she is anyway, she can change her appearance." Rosalie said spitefully.

"We use a camera, silly; if we quickly take pictures of everyone at school then we just need to see whose picture doesn't show colour." Alice said joyfully.

I realised she hadn't been acting this hyper since her last shopping trip in Paris. Something must be up, she must have seen something, I looked but all I got was "oops I did it again" being sung backwards in FRENCH. She is so annoying when she blocks me.

"Couldn't we just see who smells like vampire, who has no heart beat, the only other new girl, or the person named Isabella Swan," I said mockingly.

"We could but that's no fun." She said like we were all stupid, "remember, we have school tomorrow. We'll be starting Forks High school, so we need to get ready."

I trudged upstairs to get prepared, camera phone and all.
