Chapter one:
Twilight.My parents named me Twilight.And I hate that that name.I mean,who calls his daughter
Twilight? Seriously?! We have this thing in our family that when each kid gets to age 16 he gets his
name for life.Until then were just whatever other people want to call us...And of course my twin sister
gets the good name.I sighed.We had just ended the "announcing names" ceremony of Danielle and
i.We bowed politely and exited the stage.My big brother Tray, who's 17and muscular, ran toward us
and gave us a double bear crushing hug."You guys finally have names!" he exclaimed.I punched his arm playfully. "Yeah,now you can finally stop calling me Sunny Moon"I said.He laughed and
Danielle rolled her eyes.Well,of course, Tray called her Vermillion ,which just happens to be her all-time favorite color.The three of us were walking outside to get a limo (yeah,were rich) when it happened.All
of a sudden, in the middle of. France,New York, or where ever we were,a pack of wolves came rushing from our right
side and another group of blurry things from the other side.Danielle started screaming and yelling for
help a few seconds before they even reached us.Tray looked dumbfounded as he eyed one of the werewolfs.He slowly shook his head .A few people on the street looked at us weirdly
: "Hey kids ,whats your problem?"an old man croaked. In the meantime the wolves and
blurry things met and suddenly stopped.I could now see that the blurry 'things' were... vampires (?)
with blood red eyes.I looked around in surprise.Except for us ,no one looked shocked or
surprised.Weird...They just stared at us for a few seconds and then went back to their business muttering about teenagers these days.
A tear rolled down my cheek as a werewolf gave me an angry look.. I couldn't believe it.We were 3 kids who lived a regular life at home.
Well,my parents were kind of weird .I mean ,they go on a date everytime there is a full moon.
Who does that? Besides ,if I died ,I would have to leave Ali and Melissa ,my best friends and
Danielle would have to leave Jade.Suddenly,one vampire turned his head and stared right at me.
"Can you see me ?"He asked stupidly.After standing traumatized for a few moments ,I found
my voice again and began to speak."Um...uhhhhh...yeah,I-I do"I stammered.All the others
suddenly turned to look at us,after hearing me speak.What was their problem?I mean , I knew I
was pretty and everything ,with my blond hair and blue -green eyes but still...
One vampire with black hair suddenly ran toward me ,but before he could reach me,five
others tackled him to the ground.And then suddenly, in the blink of an eye they were gone.
. . .
I woke up the next morning with a start and looked around myself.Phew! It was all a dream.Well,
the part with the vampires and werewolves.Duh.My name really is Twilight and I do have a twin
sister named Danielle, and an older brother named Tray,but like normal people I was named
when I was born.So were my siblings.
"Girls!" called dad. "Tray went over to Michael, so its me,mom and you guys.Come on down and
we'll eat breakfast together."
"Sure thing dad!"I called
As I was walking downstairs, I heard the phone ring.I heard dad talking in a muffled voice and as
I walked into the kitchen he whispered a few gruff words and hung up.Dad had a worried look
on his face.Danielle and mom walked in behind me and we sat down at the table.Dad hastily
rubbed his temples and joined us.
"I'm afraid we have a bit of a problem."Dad started, looking at mom.She sighed and nodded
for dad to continue.An intruder has called our house for the third time today.Your mother and I
were going to go out but were a bit afraid to leave you guys alone."he said.
Danielle looked bored."I'm going out with Jade and Liam tonight anyway"she said .
They all looked at me."Ummm...uuuhhhh.........I guess I could stay home alone " I said."I'll just
watch T.V." I suddenly saw the purple curtains move and a face laughing outside the windows.I held in a scream and tried to convince myself otherwise.Oh well, probably the wind.Mom and dad
held a silent conversation with their eyes, and momentairly agreed.Looked like I wasa quite the actress.
. . .
Later on that night I was alone, watching T.V. halfheartedly.My family had left as they said they
would.I closed my eyes and suddenly had a vision of me being scared and hearing footsteps,
but when I opened my eyes they disappeared.I shook myself and prepeared myself a bowl of ice
cream.As I settled down on the couch with the ice cream, I heard the doorbell ring and a few
knocks on the door.My heart started pounding .I put down the ice cream and went to the door
cautiously."Who...wh-who-who's there?"I called out.I looked through the peep hole.No one was
there.I looked again.Nothing.
No one.
I opened the door and heard footsteps crunching on leaves,
running away as I walked out farther.
I ran back and slammed the door behind me,breathing
hard.There must be someone out there.I ran upstairs to call Ali and Melissa, my best friends.
Three way call."Guys!"I said breathlessly. "I think thatandIknowthatthere'ssomeoneoutsidemy-
houseandI'mterrified"I whimpered.There was silence for a few seconds."What?"they asked
I repeated it again slower and explained everything to them."Are you sure?"Melissa asked.
"Yes" I sighed.They calmed me down,after quite a while.I said goodnight and went to sleep.O.m.g. I can see the
future,was the last thought before I tried to fall into a deep dreamless sleep.
