Pretense of an Angel

PROLOGUE
I was running as fast as I could with my
brothers by my side as we tried to make it
to the clearing in time. I could here the
cries of pain and the screeching of bodies
being torn apart. I picked up the pace as I
heard a cry of pain coming from the one
person I would be able to know anywhere.
My.....
PART 1
I was back in Forks, Washington for the
first time in 17 and ½ years. My 4
brothers, Nathaniel, Dwayne, William, and
Brennan, came with me this time. I
teleported my car to our mansion in the
middle of the woods, I had used another of
my powers to conceal our house so no one
knew it was there unless I say so. When I
pulled my car into the garage, I saw each
of my brothers sitting in their car. I
teleported myself out of the car and in
front of Nathaniel’s car door.
I knocked on the window then
teleported him outside the car in front of
me. He stumbled backwards at the shock
of being teleported. He never gets used to
it even after 2,000 years.
“Hey lil’ sis what’s up?” He asked
slinging his arm around my shoulder and
leading me into the house.
“Only by 2 minutes,” I complained
pulling his arm off of me and running into
the kitchen away from him. He chased
after me teasingly. He caught up to me in
the living room, wrapped his arms around
me and lifted me above his head.
 “Guys can you cut down on the happy,
I can’t stand it,” Brennan said walking in
with William and Dwayne by his side.
“Gosh I forgot how much of a bummer
it was to be around you,” Nathaniel said
setting me down on the black leather
couch. I slumped into the couch
overwhelmed by the amount of sorrow
radiating off of Brennan. I normally had
my shield up all the time so that the
emotions would bounce right off of it but I
forgot and didn’t have enough energy to
put it up. I was the only one in our family
besides Brennan that could feel emotions.
Brennan usually stayed by himself
because of that but I had a vision that all
of us would need to be here so he agreed
to come.
“Man rain in the sadness, she’s the
angel of peace and happiness, you’re
gonna make her collapse,” I heard one of
my brother’s say but I was too far gone to
tell which. Then all of a sudden all the
sadness was gone and I had all my energy
back. I knew Nathaniel had to bring me
back because he is the Angel of Health.
“Thanks for that Nathan,” I said
putting my shield back up before hugging
him, not wanting to suck anymore of his
energy.
“You’re welcome. You’re my twin
sister, I would do anything for you,” he
said making tears come to my eyes.
“Thank you for everything,” I said
hugging him again. “I enrolled us in La
Push High, we start tomorrow,” I said this
time addressing everyone.
“I’m sorry Arabella,” Brennan said
looking down ashamed. I felt tears come
to my eyes again looking at him.
“It’s okay Bren, I love you no matter
what, you’re my younger brother,” I said
hugging him to me.
“Okay enough with all the tears,”
Dwayne said. “Let’s get to unpacking.”
I got up and hugged Dwayne. I
wrapped my arms around his neck and
rubbed my fingers over the tattoo there. It
was a picture of a red heart with a knife
through it. Our family were the only ones
to know what it meant. About 100 years
ago, the first girl Dwayne ever loved,
Devin, was taken from him. One of our
enemies, the vampires, had stabbed her in
the heart with a knife. And Dwayne has
sworn to never love again.
He rubbed his fingers right in the
middle of my back over the tattoo I had
got. It was simply the letters J&E written in
calligraphy. He had no idea what it meant,
no one did.
He pulled my hands away from his
neck and I smiled a sad smile at him. He
returned it and shooed me towards the
stairs. I grinned and ran up the stairs
claiming the master bedroom as mine. I
imagined all my stuff in my room and my
room painted the exact way I wanted it
with all the accessories I wanted. I opened
my eyes and it worked. My room was
perfect. I am so glad I am the Angel of
Happiness.
I heard the guys walk up the stairs and
groan when they saw that the master
bedroom had been taken. Nathaniel
laughed as the others fought over the
second largest bedroom. He walked to the
end of the hall and took the smallest
bedroom, knowing that they would
continue fighting until it was him left with
the smallest bedroom.
The fighting continued for another 20
minutes and I couldn't take it an longer. I
slammed open my door and stomped my
way to the bedroom they were in.
“Stop the fighting,” I screamed in the
highest pitch voice I could manage. They
stopped fighting and covered their ears.
“I’m going to randomly put your stuff in
the rooms and where ever your stuff lands
is your room.”
They all grumbled in agreement so I
worked my magic. In the end Dwayne got
the second largest, William got the
medium sized one, and Brennan got the
second smallest one.
I walked back into my room and pulled
my ipod off my desk. I put the buds in my
ears and hit shuffle. The song that came
on was Face Down by The Red Jumpsuit
Apparatus, my favorite song. I blasted the
music so loud Dwayne could here it across
the hall.
 “Not that I don’t love that song but
could you turn it down,” he yelled from
across the hall even though he didn’t need
to. I turned the volume down some and I
heard his sigh of relief.
I played my ipod for another hour and
then decided to go to sleep. I shut off my
ipod and laid down under my covers. I
slowly drifted to sleep as I heard Nat
playing the piano in his room.
I woke up the next morning to the
song Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne blaring out
of my alarm clock. I jumped out of bed and
ran into the bathroom. I took a quick
shower and walked into my closet drying
myself off. I picked out a pair of ripped
black skinny jeans and a lavender v-neck
t-shirt with a pair of intricate wings drawn
in black on the front. I put on a pair of
lavender peep toe heels while brushing
out my black hair with red streaks. I dried
my hair in loose curls that hung down my
back. I swept my bangs up in a poof on
top of my head so they would stay out of
my violet eyes, a trait I shared with all my
siblings. William and Dwayne weren’t too
happy about having violet eyes but they
got over it. I lined my eyes with black
eyeliner, put on some lavender
eyeshadow, and some light pink lip stain. I
was finally ready to go so I grabbed my
black leather book bag and ran down the
stairs.
On my way down the stairs I rammed
right into Nat. Nat had his black hair
spiked up so the red tips showed and a
pair of old worn out jeans on. He had a
pink muscle shirt on that showed all of his
defined muscles. I grinned at him and
continued down the stairs. I saw William,
Brennan, and Dwayne sitting at the table
looking almost exactly like Nat. They all
had their black hair spiked and worn out
jeans on. Dwayne had on a black muscle
shirt on, Brennan had a blue muscle shirt
on with a black leather jacket, and William
had a red muscle shirt on with a white
leather jacket. They all looked great and
their violet eyes popped which they
probably didn’t like.
I smiled at everyone and they returned
it. I ran to the garage and hopped into my
purple Lamborghini. Nat came in next and
got into my car knowing none of the
others would ride with me. As I pulled out
of the garage, I saw Brennan, Will, and
Dwayne get into Will’s Jaguar and pull out
behind me.
I pulled into the school parking lott
followed by the Jaguar. Nat wrapped his
arm around my shoulder along with Will
who came up behind me. They led me to
the office with Dwayne and Brennan
trailing behind us.
“Hello, I’m miss Kato, how can I help
you,” the nice secretary asked.
“Hi we are the new kids, the
Blackwoods,” I said introducing us.
“Ah, here are your schedules and a
map of the school, have a nice day,” she
said handing me the stuff.
I sorted all of our schedules out and
gave them to the correct person.
We walked outside and sat down at a
picnic table so we could compare
schedules.

When we finished comparing our

schedules the bell rang. We hurried off
towards the Italian room and slipped in
just in time.
We walked up to the teacher and
introduced ourselves.
 “Ciao, mi chiamo signora Tayara. Hai
imparato qualche italiano ancora?” she
asked. (Hello, my name is Mrs. Tayara.
Have you learned any Italian yet?)
“Sì, noi tutti lo parlano fluentemente.”
At her shocked expression I elaborated.
“Abbiamo vissuto con la madre in Italia
per un anno.” I said not completely lying.
(Yes we all speak it fluently. We lived with
our mother in Italy for a year)
“Okay well take your seats in the back
next to Jacob Black, Jacob please raise
your hand,” I turned around and looked
right into the eyes of the person that
fought for my love against Edward 18
years ago.
