When I got home I went to go take a shower and when my watch struck seven I grabbed my keys and I put on my favourite sneakers. Grabbing my helmet I hopped i to my bike and went the complete opposite direction of the Cullen house because I had to go somewhere first. I grabbed a shovel and I put something in the ground before I left. When I reached the house I walked to the door and knocked on it. I ran my fingers through my hair and I was finally let in by the doctor that had treated me for my 'concussion' and I smiled at him. He gave me a light hug before offering to take my jacket. In the house I saw the Cullen siblings and then another woman that I didn't know.

She gave me a hug and then introduced herself as Esme. "Nice to meet you," I said and the rest gave me a hug.

The whole night my phone rang but I didn't answer it. "Are you sure it's nothing important?" Alice asked and I shook my head.

"It's probably nothing." I said.

"Come with me for a moment I want to show you something," she said and took me outside. I looked at the sky and then at a painting. It was beautiful, abstract. Afterwards she led me back inside and I walked into the kitchen where there was a table and I saw a table with food and candles. The room alone was lit with candles there were no lights on.

"While you were outside we thought you two would talk because he has some important to ask you," Rose said and I smiled. I was unaware that this had been the plan, this was... a date. I pushed the almost dry hair behind my ear and he helped me sit.

"This is quite nice," I told him and I took a bite of the pasta.

"Thank you," he said and furrowed his brows.

"What question do you have for me?" I asked him.

"Have we met before because I swear today is not the first time I've seen your face," he said and I smiled.

"I don't think so," I smiled again.

"Sorry, you just seem extremely familiar," he said.

"I can assure you today is the first time I have seen you. But let's say in theory we've met before, where would it had been?" I asked him.

"Alright we would have met in Chicago, Illinois," he said and I was now intrigued. "But clearly we haven't so do you have any special abilities?" he asked.

"I would say that I have a rather special talent of reading people," I told him.

"Would you care to enlighten me?" he asked.

"Well first of all, I can see in your eyes that something is missing. You need someone in your life to fill that empty space that you long to fill but you haven't found anyone that you're drawn to. You have a hard time controlling a certain aspect of your life," I told him and stopped myself because he was frowning again.

"You're good," he said and I started warming up to him.

"Tell me what I'm thinking," I requested and I took a sip of my water. He pursed his lips and I smiled because his mood was lighter.

"I can't," he said.

"Well, let me fill you in. I'm thinking about how there is something very special about your family in particular and this town as well. It has a supernatural vibe," I told him and I took his hand in mine. "Don't be afraid to let the world and the emotion in. It's not a crime, Cullen." I told him and asked him where the rest room was. In the hallway I made sure I was quiet when I was done because they were speaking about something.

"So what did you pick up?" Carlisle asked.

"I met her in 1920," he said and I frowned.

"That's impossible. She's human," Jasper argued.

"I remember her. People look at us and they think we're human," he argued.

"How is she so tan? That's not the point. How does she has a beating heart," Rose asked.

"I don't know," he said.

I walked out finally and they stopped talking and smiled.

"So as a welcoming present to Forks we got you this," Rose said and she handed me an envelope. I was distracted by all the laughter and in a disastrous attempt at trying to open it, the envelope opener cut my finger and everyone looked, gasped and I heard a growl. Jasper pounced at me and slammed his body into the floor with my hand impaled in his chest about to pull his heart out. I looked at the family and they were rather mortified at the turn of events.

"Your eyes," Alice said and I calmed down, removed my hand from his chest and I stood up looking at my bloody hand.

"I think I should leave now," I said and Edward stood in front of me.

"What are you?" he asked.

I was sceptical to answer first so they answered before I did.

"Long story short we're vampires and he blew a short fuse," Emmett said and I wanted to laugh. Not because I found it funny but because I was in shock. Vampires? Were they serious? I knew they existed but I didn't think they would be here. I mean it wasn't as hard to believe as I thought. But another species of vampires. That was unbelievable.

"Show me your hands all of you," I said and I saw no daylight rings.

"How do you walk in the sun without daylight rings?" I asked them.

"We can walk when there is no sun but as soon as the rays come out we sparkle like disco balls," Rose explained.

"Now your turn. What are you?" Jasper asked and I took a deep breath.

"I'm the first immortal being to ever live, well second after my father. I am an original Tribrid from 1st century B.C.E Greece. I am part witch, werewolf and vampire. I am the daughter of the most powerful witches alive and my real name is Aria," I told them.

"How are you so strong?" Jasper asked.

"Because I've lived for over 2000 years. I could kill all of you right now and leave your bodies to burn to ash with a blink of an eye but I won't because then that would mean me becoming a wolf again and I don't want that to happen," I explained them and I looked down at my watch.

"I have no desire to ruin your lives. Alright, it's been lovely meeting you guys but I have to leave," I told them.

"Where you going?" Alice asked.

"I'm working on a very time sensitive project right now and if I don't do what I have to do before midnight someone could die," I explained and I left it at that before I walked out of the house.
