It was the middle of the night and the Monroe family was pulling up the windy driveway that led to their new home. It was the third one this year. Witch hunters were hot on their trail and didn't look like they were giving up anytime soon. The two story house was beautiful in Venus' eyes and she was going to enjoy the views from the floor to ceiling windows while it lasted.
"No fighting over rooms, you two." the patriarch Enzo called to his two teens running up the steps.
Enzo started unloading bags from the cars when the hairs on his neck stood up. He could feel eyes on him, watching from the woods. Not wanting to scare his wife and kids, he didn't acknowledge it. He needed a good night's sleep before he took on anything else. Looking up towards the sky Enzo was faced with a Blood Moon. Blood Moons bring chaos, disruption and change. If he was honest his family has had enough of that to last a few lifetimes over.
"Somethings coming. I can feel it." Venus calls from behind him.
"I hope you're wrong kiddo." Enzo whispers.
"Hate to burst your bubble, but when I'm I ever wrong." Venus replies.
"Let's just get some sleep Beauty." Enzo says, kissing her forehead.
Father and daughter enter the home, but what they didn't realize was that a family of vampires was checking out their new neighbors. Alice saw the family coming, but not much more was shown to her. Alice was able to see the future and it was oddly strange when she wasn't able to see the whole picture. Something was definitely up with their new neighbors.
"I can't hear whole thoughts. It's just bits and pieces." Edward tells his family.
Like Alice, Edward had a gift and he was able to read people's minds. He too was having trouble with his gifts when it came to the new family. The patriarch of the family Carlisle was puzzled how a human family could evade both of his "children's" gifts.
"They could be trouble." Rosalie, a beautiful blonde says.
"We can't jump to conclusions. Just be on your guard and keep away from their property" Carlisle calls out before disappearing from sight.
Taking one more look at the house the rest of the Cullen's follow their creator to the home 3 miles down the road.

The morning came all too quickly for Venus' liking. She stayed up until 3 am putting her room together. Not that it was needed or like she wouldn't be packing it back up anyday. In the minute she adjusted to her surroundings Venus' familiar Binx jumped onto the bed. Binx was a black cat that she summoned on her sixteenth birthday last year. She named him Binx after the cat in the movie Hocus Pocus. River thought it was a fitting name, so it stuck.
