Bella and Edward still hadn't come back from their little tour but I didn't mind. We sat in the living room and talked about our lives, mostly mine as they all wanted to know.

"You said you had siblings." Jasper started and I nodded, "what was their name? If you don't mind me asking" He said, I smiled sadly.

"My sisters name was Victoria and my brothers name was Robert, such lovely kids. My sister supposedly died when she was young while my brother died of old age so I'm told." I said, they all looked at me with sympathy.

"What did they look like?" Rose asked with a smile.

"My brother looked more like my father, short dark brown hair and soft brown eyes. While my sister looked like my mother, fiery red hair and but she had my father's brown eyes, she was quite beautiful." I said, they all looked at each other questionably before looking like they just shook the thought off. I frowned, this family was odd.

"So, who do you look like?" Alice asked, they had a lot of questions that's for sure.

"Well, I've never seen a picture of her but I've been told I look like my great grandmother on my mother's side." I shrugged, "but I can't be sure."

They nodded and asked me a lot more questions until Bella and Edward came back. Once they did we went home.

The next day after school we drove down to the diner for dinner where dad was waiting for us. Once we got there we saw Mike and his friends hanging out near the front.

"Arizona's! Yo, what's happening? So you and Cullen, huh? That's...I don't like it, I mean...he just looks at you like your something to eat." Mike said making us laugh. I like that Mike was looking out for Bella even if he just wanted to go out with her but I didn't really like the guy, no offence that's just my opinion.

We walked inside and saw dad waiting, "hey sorry we're late, I had biology projects and Violet had to wait for me." Bella explained.

"I ordered you to the spinach salad. Hope that's ok." Dad said as the waitress set down our food, I mentally groaned as got ready to force my food down.

"You should order one for yourself next time. Cut back back on the steak." I told dad, Bella chuckled.

"Hey, I'm healthy as a horse." Dad jokes as he puts down the newspaper.

"So, chief...boys wanna know. Did you find anything down by Crests River today?" The waitress asked. I saw the table in front of us turn around and listen.

"Yeah, we found a bare human footprint. But it looks like whoever that is, it's headed east. So, Ketsap's County Sheriff is gonna take over from here." Dad explained. My eyes widened, a human footprint? I looked at Bella and she wore the same expression.

"I just hope they catch them fast." The waitress then walked away with sadness in her eyes.

It was silent for a few moment before dad decided to speak up, "Bella, Violet, Friday night...go out. Looks like the Newton boys got a big smile for ya." He said, I looked out the window and saw him dancing like an idiot.

"Yeah, he's a good buddy." Bella said, I snorted as I forced down the food on my plate.

"What about any of the other yahoos in town? Anybody interest you?" Bella scoffs and looks at dad.

"Dad, we're gonna talk about boys?" She asked awkwardly.

"I guess not." Dad laughs, "I just feel like I leave you two alone to much...you two should be around people."

"I like being alone. I guess I'm kinds like my dad in that way. And besides, I have Violet and she's alright company." Bella says, I glare at her playfully and she returns it.

It was night and I was getting ready to go out and hunt. I heard Bella talking to mum on the phone in her room, I hadn't talked to her since two days ago, I should email her later. I silently opened the window and stood on the roof, sliding down I landed on my feet perfectly, like a cat.

I took running far into the woods. I came to a river, it was quite deep and wide but I jumpe it effortlessly. Landing on my feet I took off again deeper into the woods. The moon shone down on me making my pale skin glow but not sparkle like in the sun, moon light was different.

I stopped and looked around, it seemed quieter over the river as if everything was more peaceful. I frowned, something seemed off but I couldn't figure out what.

I suddenly heard a growl which was soon followed by another and another. That's definitely something that's bad for me. Crap, I'm in trouble now.
