My paws hit the soft ground as I ran through the woods. How could they lie to me for so long. My parents were the King and Queen of all vampires and no one thought of telling me. I have been living like a fool.My whole entire life they made me believe that they were just leaders of my clan but when in turn they ruled over all the vampires of the world. I didn't know what to do with myself. It was all too much to bare.

I finally slowed down and sat at the edge of a cliff. The water hit violently against the sharp rocks at the bottom. It looked like an easy way out of my troubles even if it was just temporary.
I shifted back into my human form and stood. Slowly bringing out my hands beside me.
"I'm gonna jump" I whispered. The air carried my voice taking it far away from me.
"This is not the life I want to live"

I took at step forward my leg hovering in the empty space. I was going to jump. I didn't want to think about it. All I wanted was the rush. The only thing that had never let me down. The danger. The thrill. The cold air slapped my naked body as I gave myself the final push. My foot left the ground and I felt my body dip over the side of the cliff.

All the sounds around me were muted as fell. I felt the blood rushing through my veins at a fast rate. It was after all a sixty foot high cliff.
My eyes closed and a wide smile spread across my face. This is my escape. I know I have to go back to reality but this is my escape.

Gravity kept me in increasing speed as I neared the sharp rocks that would impale my thin skin. Expectantly, heat seared through my body and I opened my eyes feeling the change within me. My new hair blinded my eyes when I began changing into Alice.

"Stupid bitch" I screamed.

All I remember is changing before I collided with my end.

I was walking down the hallway with my stuffed doll Mr Fluffy in my hand, looking for my mother because I wanted us to play.
The house was very quiet but I was used to it. It was very big like a castle and it always seemed to scream loneliness. I didn't have much friends because I was kept in doors all the time. Mom and dad thought it was safer that way because I am the princess and they are the king and queen. Everyone would be after me.

I got closer to my father's office when I heard he and my mother yelling.
"I will not send her away Diablo she is our child" my mother hissed "I will not allow her to grow up without a family"

"This is the only way she's going to be safe" he replied "the Evil Ones will stop at nothing to get their hands on her if they find out she is a wolf child born to vampire parents"

"No one will know this if we keep her inside" my mother pleaded "Please my King"

I peeped inside the voice. My dad frowned deeply.
"I'm sorry my love but this is the only way we can make sure she's safe if we make them believe that she's dead"

"Where will she go" she cried "She will come looking for us"

"You will take her to live with your sister in the kingdom of the werewolf king. She will live in her pack" he said "when you get there erase all her memories and have her remember that we are her parents but make her believe that we are cold clan leaders and not royalty"

"Will she ever know who we are" my mother asked.

"After her twenty first birthday she will remember everything" he replied.

"Mama what's going on" I whispered finally having had mustered enough courage to ask.

Both my parents spun on their heels and turned to look at me.
"Nothing my darling Minala" my mother said smiling at me nervously.
