The One
I hear it. Screaming. My eyes are instantly open. I grab an axe and I run downstairs to find my sister and my dad, dead in a pool of their own blood on the floor. Then in the corner of the room a pale man with blood red eyes step out of the shadows. He was smiling, blood dripping from his fangs. He was about to lunge at me when out of nowhere a huge wolf attacked the leech and ripped it's head off. Then it turned to me and growled, it had a look of pain and love in its eyes, then it lunged at me.
I woke up screaming, covered in sweat. It was just another nightmare, I was used to it. In the distance I hear a wolf howl, but instead of scaring me it made me feel safe. I look to see the time, 3:30. I got out of bed and put in my earbuds, singing along to Chop Suey by System of a Down. Then I started getting ready for work. I put on my black skinny jeans, then I pulled on my black knee high steel toed lace up combat boots, then I throw on a black sports bra, and lastly I put on a leather belly shirt I use for combat. The back goes from the middle of my back to the very back of my neck, the straps are as wide as my shoulders, and the neck is a V. All of my clothes have to be black for stealth and loosely close fitting for mobility or else I would be slow. Then I put on my weapons. Two short swords crossed and strapped upside down on my back, two large knives strapped to both of my thighs, two hunting knives, one stuffed in each of my boots, and finally I put cuffs on my wrists that held six small throwing knives each. My outfit exposes most of my tattoos and scars. On my back I have a large tattoo of pixie wings like Angel has from X-men first class, on my neck I have on one side the chinese symbol for life and on the other side the chinese symbol for death. I also have one on my stomach and some on my wrists and hands. Then there are my scars. I have scars everywhere from all kinds of weapons and falls, then on my wrists, thighs, and hips are my self inflicted scars, and lastly I have a bite on my right wrist and on my shoulder from those stupid bloodsuckers.
After getting dressed, I head to the bathroom. I brush my black, thigh length, curly hair and put it into a tight high ponytail braid that hung down to my butt. Then I went back to my room and grabbed my wireless earbuds that I use for work, put my phone in my shirt, went downstairs.
About 5 minutes after going downstairs, there is a knock at the door. I opened to see Blake leaning against the door frame wearing combat boots, black jeans, a long sleeved black shirt, and a puffy armless vest.
"Mornin' sunshine," he says, "Ready for your first run in Forks."
I smiled at him with a real smile, my job always made me extremely happy.
"As ready as I'll ever be," I said.
His truck was waiting out front with Keith and Tyler inside.
"Mind if I take the bed?" I asked.
"Go ahead," he said smiling back at me.
I climb into the back of the truck and hold onto the railings on top of the car, while he pulls out and starts driving to our base point (basically where they meet for work every day). Once we get there Blake introduced me to the rest of the group. Then we all set out running through the woods, tracking down and killing vampires. We had come across a big group and two leeches tried to escape, but Blake was a quick thinker. He told the others to follow the stronger one and he and I went after the other. We were running for a while and a fallen log was ahead of us. I jumped on it and launched myself off of it, but in midair I collided with something rock hard and furry. The impact of the collision threw me into a tree. I let out a painful cry and when I hit the ground everything went black.
The ground kept bouncing beneath me and there was a sharp stabbing pain on my ribs and my hip both on the left side. Then I open my eyes to realize I wasn't on the ground, someone was carrying me across their shoulders.
"Can you put me down, I am perfectly capable of walking," I said groggily.
"Oh, look who decided to wake up," Blake said as he set me on my feet, "Ya know I had to carry you for 2 miles, and we still haven't made it out of La Push yet."
"What time is it?" I say cracking my back.
"Almost 7:00, why?" he answered.
"Shit, we better get going or else my sister will have my ass. She wants me to meet her boyfriend's family, the Cullens." I say then I turn around and come face to face with a bear sized wolf. For a minute we stare into each other's eyes, but I look away and turn to Blake.
"He was not there, before. That's kinda creepy." Blake said.
"C'mon, help out of these god forsaken woods," I said and we both start walking past the wolf and when we do I run my hand along its warm, furry side.
~Time skip~
Finally arriving home I run upstairs and hop in the shower. When I get out I go to my room to get dressed. I put on a black T-shirt that says 'Fight Me Bitch' and some booty shorts. Then I throw on my black high tops, fake gauges, and run down stairs.
"Hey, Bells," I say.
"Hey, you ready to go?" she asks.
"Yeah let's go." I reply.
We drive down to the Cullen's house and when we got out of the car I could smell it. Vampires. We walk up to the house, but instead of knocking we just walk right in.
"They left the door unlocked for us they're waiting in the living room," Bella told me.
We walk into the living room and I just froze in place. The Cullens were vampires. My sister is dating a vampire.
"Alvira, this is Edward my boyfriend, and this is his family. Carlisle, Esme, Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, and Emmett. Guys, this is my sister Alvira." Bella said.
"Umm, hi," I said, it was taking every fiber within my being not to attack.
The girl named Alice stepped forward.
"I like your contacts, it's kinda cool how they changed color," she said.
"Changed color?" I said, confused.
"Yeah, your eyes were gold and now they're turning red," she told me.
'Shit', I thought. Any minute now one of these people would become my food. All of the sudden my head started hurting. Someone was trying to read my mind. I used my power to block them out and strike back. Then Edward was kneeling on the ground, clutching his head in pain and all attention focused on him. Some of these leeches had powers and I needed to get out of this house before I let my rage loose. I turn to everyone and say,
"Thank you for having me over, but I have to go."
And with that I left. I walked right out of the house and ran into the nearby woods. I took out my phone and called Blake.
"Hey,what's up?" he said.
"I need you to meet me at the base point with a leech, and make sure it's alive." I said and then I hung up. Once I get to the base point I see Blake and a restrained vampire sitting next to him.
"You oka.... Whoah what's up with your eyes?" he said shocked.
"Whenever I need to feed my eyes turn red." I replied. Then I knelt down, took the vampires wrist, and drank until there was no more blood in his body. I was safe again, at least for one more month.
Back at the Cullen house
"What's her problem?" Rosalie asked.
"I don't know she's been kind of off since she's been home." Bella answered.
"She has powers," Edward said, "When I tried to read her mind, she intentionally blocked me out and then forced her way into my mind, not to read it, but to weaken me." He said.
"What?" Bella said.
"Bella, I don't think your sister is human," Carlisle spoke up.
