Static was coming through my radio. It was Kyle.

"Hey, Alvira. Let's wrap this up. You have an early flight in the morning."

"As if, I want to drag this out as long as possible. I am not looking forward to going out there. Plus, my stuff is already there. All I have to do is show up at the airport," I reply.

Suddenly something rustles nearby and my gold eyes flicker toward the source. Then Kyle responds,

"You need the sleep. And by the way a leech is coming your way."

"Already here," said a voice.

I turned to see the bloodsucker before me. In the blink of an eye he lunged at me and with a flick of my wrist I rip his head off his shoulders. Using my pyrokinesis I make him burst into flames.

"That was a bore, he didn't even try," I whined into the radio.

Kyle comes up from behind me.

"Come on Swan. Let's go home for drinks, it's your last night here," he says.

"Fine," I reply simply.

You're probably wondering 'What is she' or 'What is her job. Let me explain I moved away from my friends and family to live with my grandma because I was depressed. I thought it would do me some good to get away from everyone I knew. And after a while things changed. The calls stopped coming and so did the e-mails. It was as if everyone forgot me. One night I couldn't sleep, so I decided to take a walk in the woods while it was raining. Even though I hate the cold with a passion, I love the rain and the forest. Out of nowhere a beautiful man with blood red eyes stepped out of the brush.

"You might be wondering who I am, but I will explain in a minute. I've been watching you for a while and I honestly think you would be much happier like me," he said. I stood there expressionless, feeling no fear at all or anything for that matter. All I thought was 'This is where it ends. This is where I end' and I was ok with that. The man started walking towards me, then out of nowhere came Kyle who decapitated him and set him on fire. Then he turned to me and said,

"So have we and so do we."

I finally spoke up, but kept my voice calm.

"What was that and who are you?" I asked.

"That was a vampire, but we call them bloodsuckers or leeches and I am a hunter. My group and I are all humans who have lost something, mostly by a leech, so we hunt and kill them and we would like you to join us. By the way i'm Kyle." he said extending his hand.

I shook it.

"What's in it for me?" I say without thinking.

"Well there's the 500 dollars a week and the 1000 dollars every time you save a team member from death, you get really awesome friends that you can tell anything to, wherever you move you get assigned a new team meaning you'll never be out of a job, and you also get to kill bloodsuckers with an unlimited supply of gear and weapons," he responded.

That's all it took for me. For a couple of years it went smooth, no big injuries, grandma wasn't suspecting anything, and I worked almost every night. My job helped my depression a lot, also my ADHD got to run wil. The downside was that I now had severe insomnia and graphic, realistic nightmares that make me scream in my sleep. All of this was from seeing my team members die violently, but I never stopped. Then one mission went horribly wrong. Everything seemed right at the moment. I was killing one leech when another bit me. I had been bitten once before and had scars all over my body, but never had I ever had venom injected into me.

The pain was excruciating, it was like someone had set me on fire. One of my team members, Tasha, had powers ( I don't feel like explaining, but she's not a vampire or a hybrid) and she was able to slow down the process of the venom, but she couldn't remove or stop it without killing me. I knew in my mind that I wouldn't be the same after that, so I begged and begged for them to kill me, but they refused. It took my team hours to find a trusted vampire to suck out the venom. By the time they did, it was too late. I wasn't a full vampire, but I was a quarter vampire, which made me a hybrid. I was much stronger, much faster, my skin was clearer, I sparkled only a little in the sun yet I still tanned, my eyes turned from green to gold, and I also had fangs, but they aren't that noticeable. I still had a beating heart and blood ran through my veins, but I was still different and my skin was colder, I HATE the cold. All of my senses were heightened. I even gained powers, but instead of just getting one they just keep on coming. I know have abilities like pyrokinesis, telekinesis, and I can control people's minds, but I can't read them, thank god. I also drink blood, occasionally. Not human blood or animal blood because they taste disgusting, I would know because after I turned I was starving and craving blood so I accidentally bit him and almost threw up so I ran out of the house and bit the nearest animal then I threw up, but vampire blood. I'm the only one that can make a vampire bleed and when I'm hungry I become kind of insane, happy, and at peace.

Now tonight is the last night with my old team before I fly out to Forks, Washington for the rest of my highschool life and to have a barbecue first thing when I get there is not what I want to do, but I love my dad and I will do anything for him. Time for a change.
