The Start Of It All

So... I don't know where to begin really... It's complicated.

So I was born about 18 years ago, to a human mother and a vampire father. My mother died and my father raised my, along with my five older siblings. Although we share the same father, our mother's are all different. See, my father, he wants to create a new race. Whilst vampires are good a pretty much everything, he thinks that by combining human and vampire genes to create... us, that we're a superior being from others, and that humans were just... food.

But when I was about three, I decided that I wasn't going to do that. I put my foot down and finally stood up to him. That went well... He banished me from his family, and I didn't dare go back, what with him being so much stronger than me. For two years I just wandered, living in forests and on the outskirts of towns, forraging for food, mainly human food. But not meat. I've been put off that for life.

In those two years, I kept in contact with my sister, Calliana. She kept me informed of what was happening, and it was through her that I found out that my father had been killed by a group of other vampires. The Volturi. Turns out that his bid to create a new race had caught their attention, and they did NOT approve. They came and hunted him down. According to Calliana, my brothers and sisters were almost killed too, but the leader, Aro, spared them, and offered them a home with him. Two of my brothers, Grayson and Eliah , accepted, but Calliana, Michah and Uri declined, prefering to stay together and try and create a life for themselves in the human world.

And then there's me. Aro saw of my existance in the other's thoughts, and soon they found me too, and offered me the same proposition. I too declined, prefering to wander alone.

I guess it's the freedom I enjoy, of having no boundries and nobody to answer too.

So that's me. Megena. I hope you enjoy my story.
