"Well from what I can remember when I was human me, Aro and Caius worked together and had become friends almost immediately."
"One day we were leaving the palace to do some shopping and all three of us got pulled forcefully into an alleyway. We didn't know what the hell was going on because there was no one around us. All of a sudden we heard a laugh coming from down the alleyway and turned to watch a man with bright red eyes and pale skin walking towards up."
"I don't remember much of what happened after that until the fire took over my body. I wasn't sure how long I was burning for but it felt like years. I could hear my friends screaming beside me but there was nothing I could do, my body was incapable of moving. So I just laid there and screamed alongside my friends."
"Finally the fire started to leave my legs and arms, but unfortunately all the fire that was in my arms and legs settled in my heart. It was the worst pain imaginable. Then all of a sudden the pain just stopped along with the beating of my heart."
"I was so confused when the pain was gone. I could hear everything and taste everything. It felt like my brain had grown to triple its mass, I was able to think about dozens of things at once without getting confused. Then I opened my eyes. Nothing looked the way it used to, everything was so much clearer and I could even see the little speckles of dust that where floating around me." Marcus stopped talking and looked at me.
"Why don't we move over by the water and get a little more comfortable." Marcus said. He picked up all the leftover food and my plate and put it all away. He grabbed the blanket that we were sitting on and walked over to a tree that was next to the edge of the water. He spread the blanket out by the tree and sat down with his back to the tree so he was looking out at the water. I walked over to Marcus and sat between his legs with my back to his chest and leaned back on him. He wrapped his arms around my waist and started to play with the hem of my shirt.
Marcus returned to telling me his story.
"I started to sit up when I had the strangest feeling that I wasn't alone. I shot up like a bullet into the corner of the room as far away from the "threat" as possible. Once I settled down and actually looked at who was there I saw Aro and Caius in opposite corners of the room doing the same thing as me. I couldn't help but notice that their eyes where the most brilliant red and their skin was alabaster white. After a few moments of feeling each other out we walked back into the center of the room and started shooting questions at one another until we heard a voice in the background say 'I can explain everything if you three shut up for a minute.' All three of us turn to the man that walked into the room and started growling at him as we got into a defensive crouch."
"He explained what happened to us. We were so angry, we couldn't figure out why he would do this to us. So we asked him why. He said 'I am building an army so I can rule over all vampires'. We were furious to find out we were created to be soldiers. Within a split second after he said that we had him tore apart and burned him."
"One day we were passing through a little village, which just so happens to be this one, and came across three nomads that where terrorizing the people of this village. We went to the head of the town and asked him if we fixed his problem with the nomads, if he would allow us to take up permanent residency in his village, and we would promises never to hunt anywhere near here. He was a little hesitant at first but eventually accepted."
"That night we took care of the nomads and the head of the town was so happy he gave us the castle that we live in now. The villagers even helped us fix it up."
"From that day on we decided we needed to put a stop to vampires like the ones we came across when we moved here. Vampires needed boundaries just like humans to keep the world running as smoothly as possible. We started recruiting gifted vampires to help us out. long story short this is pretty much what we ended up with." Marcus leaned his head down and kissed my cheek.
I didn't even know what to say. These three men have been through so much to get to where they are today. All that came out of my mouth was "wow."
"Well Isabella since I told you a little about my life why don't you tell me a little about yours." Marcus said.
"Well let's see, I was born on September 13th, I am 18 years old. My parents are Renee Dwyer and Charlie Swan. When I was 6 months old my mom decided she didn't want to be with my dad anymore and took me with her to California. We ended up staying there for a while, but finally moved to Arizona."
"Renee was always kind of scatterbrained and impulsive. She would often forget to pay the bills because something more important caught her eye so I took over the mother roll while she became the child. I think I was about 15 when my mom met Phil he was trying to get into major leagues baseball when they started seeing each other. Phil's a good guy, he takes real good care of my mom but I could tell my mom wasn't happy having to stay home with me while Phil was on the road. So I decided to go and live with my dad so my mom could be with Phil."
"It had been a few years since the last time I had seen my dad, but he was more than happy for me to come home to him. I started school a couple days after I got to Forks, and let's just say, that's when my life got interesting, that's when I met the Cullen's."
"I first saw them in the cafeteria at lunch. They were the most beautiful people I had ever seen. It's kind of funny because I think the first time I saw them I know something was different about them they were just too beautiful. Lunch ended and I went off to biology that's when I had my first one on one encounter with Edward, the teacher sat me right next to him. It didn't go over well, he stayed as far away from me as possible while covering his nose and mouth. I was kind of getting pissed off because It looked like he was insinuating that I stunk and I knew for a fact I didn't. Once class ended he bolted out of the room so fast my head spun."
"I didn't see him for almost a week after that. Then one day he just shows back up and tries to be my friend."
"One day I was standing next to my truck and one of the guys I go to school with lost control of his van when he hit a patch of black ice. The van came sliding towards me, as it was about to hit I closed my eyes. All of a sudden I was pushed out of the way and landed on the ground and all I heard was the sound of bending metal. I opened my eyes to see Edward kind of lying but crouched over me with his hand in the center of a big dent in the side of the minivan. I asked him a few times how he did it but he would always beat around the bush."
"Finally one day I went to the beach on the Indian reservation a few miles away and met up with one of my friends that lives there. His buddies had said something along the lines of the Cullen's weren't allowed on their land and I asked him about it. He told me a story about the Cullen's making a treaty with them stating if they promised not to hunt on their land they could take up residence in Forks. He called the Cullen's 'the cold ones.'
"I did a little research and put two and two together and I figured out what they were. I confronted Edward about it and he told me the truth about him being a vampire and how they lived the veggie diet. I was intrigued and also falling in love with Edward. We were inseparable from that day on."
"Well we were inseparable at least until my 18th birthday."
I stopped talking for a minute.
"Marcus do you mind if I leave the rest of the story to tell when all four of us are together? I really only want to have to say it once. It was a really bad time in my life and the fewer times I have to repeat it the better." I asked him
"That's no problem at all Isabella. Thank you for sharing your story with me." Marcus said.
