After a while I could move, so I opened my eyes immediately. I was alone in a forest, but it was like another world. I could smell the birds in the trees. Suddenly I saw a notice lying half under a stone next to me. I unfolded the letter and read:

Hello,

Now I'll tell you something what you'd probably never imagined, but it is the truth and not a joke. So, first thing: now you're a vampire.  I have accidentally hit you by car, but I have transformed you into a vampire because otherwise you wouldn´t have survived. There are a lot of vampire covens, for example the Denali coven, the Olympic coven/ the Cullens, the Irish coven ..., but the most powerful and oldest coven is the Volturi (they are more than 3000 years old, because vampires are immortal) They are like the royal family of the vampire world and the "vampire police". That means, they ensure compliance with the law. Now I will try to explain their laws. You should follow the rules because if you break one of these rules you  will be punished with death ( vampires can only be killed by being torn apart and burned . ) :

Hunts must be inconspicuous, with victims unlikely to be missed; their remains must be disposed of and territory must be changed often.  (Vampires don´t need to sleep, breathe or eat any human food, but they feed on blood.)

Incapable of self-control, and therefore a threat of exposure, immortal children are not to be created. Such creation is the ultimate taboo and punishable by death to both child, the creator, those who defend the child and those who know of its existence.

Dealing with Children of the Moon, except for the purpose of extermination, is prohibited.

False witness, regardless of intent, is punishable by death.

Hunting is forbidden in Volterra, the town of residence of the Volturi; their food is brought from outside, sometimes from quite far away.

Attention should not be drawn and vampires should not be noticed in open sunlight. (Vampires glitter in the sunlight, so you shouldn´t show yourself in the sunlight, they are supernaturally fast and strong and some vampires have a power. (I have the power of finding out the powers of people, which they would have if they were vampires. Before I had transformed  you  into a vampire, I knew that you have a very strong power. When you're concentrated on a vampire, his power isn´t working in this time. This can be very useful to you in a fight, for example.)

The creator is responsible for his newborn's behavior and teaching of the laws before they can be released on their own. By letting a newborn hunt conspicuously, the penalty will be death both to the newborn and its creator. Even if the newborn is ignorant of the law, his rash acts are still punishable by death. (Newborns are persons who are a vampire only since one year or less.)

Vampires' interaction with humans must not draw wide attention. If a human becomes aware of them, the vampire at fault would be responsible for silencing that human. This mostly leads to two options: either make the human join the immortals or silence that human permanently.

WHEN YOU HAVE READ THIS NOTE, PLEASE BURN IT, so you don´t lose it and then maybe a normal person finds this note.
