"GET away from me!" a young woman screamed as she struggled against the grip of an older man.

Her nails scraped against the floor as she tried to stop the man from getting what he wanted. The scent of alcohol came from the man as he gripped and began to tear her clothes with a knife gripped tightly in his hand. The young woman felt the cold breeze against her now bare back and shoulders. "Shut up, slut. You enjoy this," he snarled at her as he ran the tip of the knife along the skin of her back.

Blood drew from her wound which his slimy tongue licked up and one of his hands reached down to unbuckle his belt while the other one held her down. The young woman whimpered loudly as she continued to struggle but wasn't able to break away from him as he was much stronger than her. She felt pain radiate from her back but the pain from her back was nothing compared to what happened next.

Her screams echoed through the silent night as she felt blood stain her inner things and a burning pain emanates from between them. Her hand reached out for something to grab and when her fingers find a broken chair leg, she gripped it tightly and twisted her body around to knock it against his head.

Her force knocked the man off her and onto the ground where he laid there unconscious. Tears streamed down the young woman's face as she held up the broken chair leg towards the knocked-out man as if he would get back up again and attack her. Her body shook from the force of her sobs and tears blinded her vision as she didn't notice a black hooded figure walked towards her. "I can help you," the figure informed the shaking girl.

Their voice caused the young woman to jump and point the chair leg towards them. Her bluish-green eyes locked with red ones but they didn't make her feel scared or frightened. "kak?" she asked him in her mother-tongue which he seemed to understand as he smiled in an almost creepily but yet almost sweet way towards her.

He knelt down beside her and held out a hand towards her for her to take. "I can make you stronger and powerful," he promised her and her hand hesitantly reached up to grab his.

She didn't reply as he helped to pull her onto her feet and her eyes closed. Suddenly, a burning pain rushed through her whole body but she didn't scream in pain. She accepted it with open arms as this was what she wanted...even though she didn't know what that was.

Her eyes snapped open to reveal that her eyes were no longer green but instead bright red which stood out her paler skin. She was now something different...something inhuman. A vampire. The undead.

She felt a hand ran over her cheek which made her eyes snap over to them. It was the figure that turned her into this. "You are perfect, Kalina," he spoke to her with a giant smile on his face.

Her skin wasn't translucent white like his nor the other vampires in his coven but still paler than a human's. Her features were enhanced making her extremely beautiful and her hair full and perfectly styled. She was, as what the man said, perfect.

♣♣♣

Over the next two centuries, Kalina lived with the Volturi as the man who turned her was Aro, one of the leaders of the most powerful coven in the world of vampires. Although human blood was the only food source that vampires had, Kalina was still repelled at the thought of drinking it but she had no choice if she wanted to live.

She looked more human than the other vampires Aro had created except for her unusual bright red eyes. At the start of her life, Kalina was used by the Volturi to lure humans because of her extreme beauty until she discovered at her abilities.

At first, she could read the minds of others before that formed into being able to manipulate them into seeing what she wanted them to see then into being able to use visions elicit fear or emotional pain in a person. Slowly, she was able to show Telekinesis which further impressed Aro until a range of psionic abilities manifested in psionic energy which is a form of reddish glowing energy currents and mist-like shapes. Due to this energy, her iris glowed a dark red when she concentrated and Aro named her his most powerful guard. That was until Kalina met Carlisle Cullen, a vampire who was turned 173 years after her and met the Volturi while studying Italy.

It turned out that Carlisle was able to feed on animals instead of humans which gave him golden eyes instead of red. After living with the Volturi after two more decades, Carlisle left for the New World with Kalina as she now followed in his animal blood drinking practice.

Together, they formed the Olympic Coven and travelled together until 1918 where Carlisle created Edward, who was dying of Spanish influenza when Kalina decided to leave to travel around the world.

So, for another fifty years, she spent travelling around the world to places like Australia, Spain and Canada. Until she received a phone call from Rosalie.
