The Danger Within Me by Marina A. Chadd (ereader for android TXT) 📖

My name is Willow Kucriarro and I am a vampire high breed and my life literally sucks. I have once again found myself running from the Volturi.
Ever since I was born they have been chasing me all over the world. They don't want me alive unless I'm on their side... there's two problems to that. I'm a vegetarian, and I'm not that cruel.
I've been searching the world for vampires like me and no luck, but I have heard of these.... Cullens that live in Forks, Washington that are almost like me. So I enrolled in Forks High School and decided to give them a little fright.
So my adventure begins.....

Staring.... always staring at me, you would think they would like a new face every now and then. I had to ignore it, I was on a mission to find these Cullens and their secrets.
When I felt someone tap on my shoulder I quickly turned around and almost knocked the guy over. I caught him with lightning speed (oh crap) and pulled him up. He looked a little bewildered for a moment.
“Wow! You move freaking fast!” The kid said.
“When I want to I can. Now I'm trying not to be rude but who the hell are you?” I sounded harsh even in my vocabulary. “I'm sorry people are getting on my nerves today.”
“ I- it's fine. I'm Nathan and I probably shouldn't have snuck up on you anyway.”
Man, this guy is nice but I'm just not sure about him. “It's fine I shouldn't have snapped on you like that. People just keep staring at me like Imm'a freak.”
“Don't worry about it, I understand. I just wanted to see if you needed help finding the lunch room...”
I knew exactly where it was but I decided to be nice to him. “I guess I could use the extra help.” I smiled at him with my perfect teeth.
When he started talking to me about his life and his friends I felt a pang in my head.... like there was a presence in it. I automatically pushed it back and looked behind me, but I didn't see anyone who could have done it. Maybe I was still too use to having Aro trying to get into my head.
I smoothly slid back into the conversation with Nathan again trying to ignore the fear I had for who ever tried to get into my head.
When I sat down at lunch (away from Nathan I may add) and these teenagers caught my eye. They were beautiful, and quite.... and not eating. Crap,I thought. I picked up my tray and walked to dump it (I wasn't going to eat it anyway) but one of the teenagers started walking up to me. I knew he was coming so I walked the other direction on purpose... this guy had a strong build and looked like he could easily snap me in half.
“Hey, new girl.” He whispered under his breath, but I could easily hear it and he knew it.
“Not here please” I said just as quietly back to him.
“Really? In the hallway then, since you said please.” He said right back.
I nodded my head and looked into his head, his name was Emmet and he was part of the Cullens. “Okay... Emmet.”
That stopped him, and before I knew it I was surrounded by his two brothers in the Hallway. That's when I noticed who had tried to get into my head, Edward. Time for a little pay back then....
I slammed his head and his brothers with a mental line of electricity. They all crumbled in pain from the impact. I let go right away because just doing it once made pain go up my through. I could almost feel my irises go darker. The pain didn't only go to my through this time, it hit me right through my body as well. I staggered and then I was being picked up and out the doors in a flash.
Emmet threw me on the ground and I was hit by a wave of pain... again. This has never happened before! I started panicking from the pain and Jasper felt it in my mind and immediately stopped all of their attempts to get me back to their world.
I felt myself collapse on the forest floor in a wreathing ball of agony. This time when I felt the pang in my head I let it come, I had no strength to stop it anyway. I felt myself drifting into a bright world that would bring even more pain, I knew it. My sixth scenes told me.
I was done, I knew it, I felt it. I was so out of it that I didn't realize that I had been picked up and was rushing through the forest at amazing speed. I was still in pain when I felt us enter a house, then all went bright white and I was in the sweet bliss of nothingness.

hen I started to wake I felt something cool and wet against my forehead. It felt wonderful against my hard skin. I opened my eyes and they were met with sunlight and I had to blink to get the dots outta my eyes. I finally got the strength to get into a sitting position and see who it was taking care of me.
Unknowingly I went into their head and got their name. Carlisle. “Thank you very much Carlsile.” I whispered almost silently. I saw his eyes open wider.
“She's gifted we just aren't sure with what yet.” I heard a voice say.
I twisted with lightning speed to see that it was Edward that had spoken.
“I wouldn't have needed too if you guys would have just left me alone. We were in the middle of school for crying out loud!” I knew I had rambled on but I didn't care. I was nervous. “Well, I was looking for your clan anyway.”
Carlisle finally spoke, “Why were you looking for us child. We have done nothing to you.”
I quickly spoke, “NO! No, I just wanted to find you guys to see if you were vegetarians like me. I have never met any other vampires that are and I had only heard of you.”
“Your not a vampire.” Edward spoke softly.
“I'm not only a vampire is what you should be saying.” I whispered.
“What are you?” Carlisle asked.
“I don't even know you guys! Why in the hell should I tell you!” I nearly screeched.
Everyone jumped a little, surprised at my outburst. They all noticed I was shaking and trying to calm down. That's when I noticed Carlsile studying me very closely. I stared into his eyes and I knew that he knew what I was, a high breed.
“May I take an educated guess then?” Carlsile said quietly.
“I-I don't know. I don't like people that are smart to take any guesses about me.”
Just then Jasper walked in and I had a strange feeling he was about toblurt it out so I compelled him not to say anything. I knew who he was, what he had done, and how smart he was at telling the truth about people.
“She's- Sh-. I'm sorry I forgot. Hold on.” He sat there bewildered for a minute. Studying me with an intense stare.
“You shouldn't do that” Edward snapped out.
“Get the HELL outta my head mind reader!” I yelled at him.
He just kept staring at me. “You can block me, why yell at me over it?”
Damn, he was right. Somehow I knew that he always was. So insteed of answering I stared at him until I felt a calm wave come over us. Then I felt the snap, my control over Jasper broke so suddenly I gasped.
“She's a high breed between a shape shifter and a vampire.,” He spoke smoothly. “and she's a lot stronger than what we are giving her credit for. I feel it.” He started to slowly go around me, like a hunter and it's pray. “She controls the elements.”
I lunged at him so fast even he couldn't comprehend what had happened till it was too late. He went flying through the open doorway that a women had walked through milliseconds before. I stared in shock at what I had just done. I never lose my temper, NEVER.
“Oh my god! I am so sorry, I lost it..” I kept blubbering on until the women came over and comforted me. Why? I have no living clue.
“Shhh. It's okay, it's okay. We know it was an accident, I'm amazed that you can even move that fast anyway. We all are.” She took my face into her hand and looked at me. “What is your name child?” She spoke softly.
“I'm Willow Kucriarro” I whispered still staring into her beautiful gold eyes, and that means I saw it when her eyes went wide.
“Your her, aren't you?” She questioned me.
“What do you mean?” I asked very puzzled.
I heard a flutter and a small women with pixie-like hair was sitting on the floor not too far from me.
“Your the one from my vision. You are running from the voluri because you are powerful and not normal. You protect us from the worst after they find out your here, though with the wolves that's a different story.” Her angel like voicesaid.
“I know I'm powerful, and I've only just began practicing my powers. I am running from the Volturi because they either want me on their side or dead. I don't give up and that's why I ran.” I whispered almost to myself. “I have never gave up, and I never will.”
“Can you turn into a wolf?” Esme asked politely. When I didn't answer she lifted my face and stared me right in the eyes. “Are you the impossible high breed?”
I trembled, “Yes.”
