Another Twilight fanfic

Chapter 5: Chapter 5



AN: luckily, I'm still kind of free-ish at the moment, so I can write. So yeah.

Also, just to be completely transparent. I do not have drafts/chapters saved. I publish this as soon as I finish one. I do have an idea as to how I want this to be such as a gxg pairing for our MC and some other things that I thought were ridiculous in the movie. But overall, I don't know what will happen, or how things will work out... 😅

I'm almost as clueless as you, I just let the MC live her life in my head, and I just share it. The best explanation I can give.

So let's all see what she'll end up doing ok?

~~

Unknown POV

Esme sat her on a dining chair near the kitchen and reluctantly tried to go and make her food, but she subconsciously was still holding onto the lady vampire.

"I'm going to finish soon ok? Just sit right there for now, you can see me from here... I promise I won't be long." She said reassuringly.

Realizing what I was doing, I immediately let go and nodded at the kind woman.

'She does give off that motherly warm aura' she thought while following Esme with her gaze.

Remembering that there were still other people in the house, she got curious and looked around for them.

And there they were, seated across from her, both looking at her curiously with an amused smile lingering on their lips and a hint of something she was not familiar with r receiving, but felt warm.

'They do look similar to the actors from the movie, but like... With several filters put on them, it's similar but different at the same time. They're so handsome, that I want to either be them or punch them, I bet women swoon when they get a look at them, must be so nice to get easy mode on the dating pool. Hmph' she tried so hard not to roll her eyes at them. So she ended up just looking like she was studying both of them.

Seeing this, Carlisle, the older male vampire cleared his throat to get their attention.

"I think it's time for an introduction now yeah? I'll start. My name is Carlisle Cullen the head of this coven and Esme's mate, the woman who brought you here." gesturing to his mate after mentioning her name.

'you do realize I'm a child right? What would a child know about covens and mates bruh... I guess I have to make use of Eddie here for a while, but I need to make it seem like I don't know if he can read my thoughts... Then I can let them realize that I have some sort of defense from Eddie's mind reading that I have sort of control over' She mentally fist-bumped herself.

She turned off the skill to let Edweirdo hear her thoughts.

'leader? Coven? Mate? How do I respond... They'll turn bad too... No, I don't want that...' she asked mentally, knowing that the resident mind reader could hear her thoughts. She looked down and fiddled with the of her shirt, which she just did not realize was an oversized white female blouse. Esme's no doubt.

She suddenly felt like she was forgetting something important but she could not concentrate on that right now as she was still having a conversation. Her skill was turned off, so she can't have stray thoughts.

"Carlisle, she was confused and scared. She doesn't know and understand what a coven, leader, and mate are. She doesn't know how to answer without speaking" Edward said with a look of understanding and what she could see as genuine concern.

That was her cue for the next line, she has to be careful about how to proceed from this, it's hard filtering her thoughts to seem childlike.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Coven is like a family. And Uh. A leader is like the Father of that family... and mate... Is... Is a partner for life?" Carlisle, the poor patriarch, realizing his mistake tried to explain it in a way that a child would understand, but failing miserably. He didn't have any experience in talking to children about this sort of topic. Not in his wildest imagination would he have guessed that there would be a time that he'd have to explain this thing to a child.

She gave him a confused look, and they heard a chuckle from behind her. Then came Esme with her food and a glass of water, the woman placed it gently in front of her.

Esme made scrambled eggs and toast with butter. It smelled amazing, after living off of drugs and tasteless porridge in the lab, this simple meal was simply mouth-watering for her... She ignored the utensils and went straight to grab the eggs with her bare hands and ate them, same as the bread, in no time she was done and drank the water. But a feeling didn't go away, her hunger did get a bit better, and her stomach was no longer protesting, but the burning feeling from her throat would not go away even when she drank the water.

They looked at her amused, she looked so cute like a little squirrel, but the couple then realized that the girl didn't know how to use utensils, with how big she already was, she should have already been taught this.

Hearing their thoughts and knowing some things about the young girl, he gave the couple a look that conveyed that they'd talk about it later.

'my stomach doesn't hurt anymore, but I'm still thirsty... The hurt in my throat is still there' she thought with a frown on her face while massaging her neck. She tried so hard to only use words that would have been used in front of her by her captors since their scent they would use while experimenting on her.

"She's saying her stomach is full, but the burning feeling from her throat isn't going away. I think she needs 'that' Carlisle" Edward relayed for her.

She decided to go forward while there was an opening.

'huh? How did he know? The little man keeps knowing what I think... Am I speaking!' she thought first with a look of confusion then horror and panic, then she quickly covered her mouth the looked around, looking she was checking if they were still normal. With how suddenly she moved and with her new strength that she wasn't aware or in control of yet, she scooted back too much and the chair fell with her, then the glass of water fell and broke when she tried to sit up and get the chair away from her, she didn't see that there was glass on the floor when she used her right hand for support, a small piece stabbed her palm.

This all happened so fast the vampires were already distracted with their thoughts about her, that they weren't able to react quickly to prevent all of it.

"No! Are you ok?!" Esme screamed and went over to lift her, away from the shards of glass on the floor. She held her hand to check the injury, not in the least bit tempted by the scent of her blood.

Both Carlisle and Edward came over to check on her and saw that there was blood, but the wound was already gone.

The scent of the blood did not appeal to them like the humans would. But Just to make sure, Carlisle sped to get his medical kit and quickly cleaned her hand.

"This answers some of my questions, such as... Does she bleed? can she still heal? And would her blood affect us?" Carlisle said while still looking and observing her hand.

She knew it was rude and it might seem ungrateful, but she knew he was a good guy... But the feeling of a man touching her made her feel uncomfortable. She knew why, the combination of both past and present memories gave her trauma with grown men, and women too, but not as much as the males.

Memories of men trying and taking advantage of her at a young age, including some memories she vaguely remembers witnessing that happened to her mother who was also a siren. Everything is seen by the young male vampire, conjuring a frown to appear on his face.

She took her hand away from the doctor and buried her face in the crook of Esme's neck.

Seeing this, Carlisle was a bit hurt by her actions. But Edward shook his head at him and gave him a look that says he'll tell him later so he let it go for now.

Esme, what just happened felt sad for her mate, but was worried for the little angel in her arms. She hugged the girl gently while patting her back.

"It's okay baby. It is all better now. No one's going to hurt you." she reassured her.

She nodded while still hiding her face. It lasted a few more seconds and the 3 patiently waited for her to calm down.

She finally lifted her head to look at them and wanted to apologize, she looked like a kid who did something wrong and was scared of being scolded.

"It's ok my child, nobody's angry with you," the older female vampire said while giving her hand a light squeeze to calm her down.

After calming down, she noticed that the burning sensation from before hurt more, like she was more thirsty, not by much but still noticeable for her who was experiencing it firsthand.

'more thirsty...' she thought while looking at them, putting a hand on her throat to make them realize without speaking to them directly. They still didn't know that she was aware of Edwards's ability.

"She's thirsty" The younger vampire gave Carlisle a pointed look.

Realizing what it could be, Carlisle sped up to get a bag of animal blood that he kept for emergencies, poured it into a glass, and gave it to the girl.

Knowing that she shouldn't know about vampires and their need to drink blood, she gave him a confused look.

Understanding that the girl does not have any idea as to why he gave her blood to drink. Carlisle was at a loss as to how he should explain it.

Seeing her mate's dilemma, she decided to help him out, Esme held the hand of the girl holding the glass.

"it's for the burning in your throat honey, Don't worry, it's not anything bad. Just try a bit of it first, it might help" she says while smiling.

She looked at the glass with the blood, the smell wasn't unexpectedly not making her want to vomit, it even smelled nice and enticing. She brought the glass closer to her lips and took a little sip at first, and it surprised her that it tasted sweet, it wasn't metallic like how she remembered how it should taste, but sweet. Like juice, but she can't pinpoint which juice exactly. She finished the whole glass. And the burning sensation went away.

'ok now, not thirsty' she thought. God, she was so mentally tired of filtering her thoughts. Her eyelids felt heavy, and she tried to stay awake, she kept blinking slowly.

"The thirst went away, but now I think she's sleepy..." Edward shared, but seeing the girl looking like she'd fallen asleep any minute now, he was shocked again. The girl could sleep!

Carlisle processing everything he has seen and still am witnessing, was also shocked and curious. The girl could eat and drink normal human food, but still needed blood... It seems that she could also fall asleep. In all his years of existence as a vampire, he has never encountered such a scene.

Esme, seeing that the girl was about to fall asleep, was also curious, but her motherly instinct prevailed.

"I think someone needs a nap first. Let's continue this later" she says looking at her family.

"yes, indeed. You can take her back to be first my love. We'll talk after you come back" Carlisle agreed.

Third persons POV

"Have you seen anything here before?" Edward asks the older vampire.

"No, none on records too. We know she wasn't human even before she was bitten, but now... She doesn't smell human, her scent is similar to vampires, but but different... She still has a heartbeat and still bleeds, but can also heal... I'm not sure about anything else, but I know the girl is special" Carlisle responded, fascination for the unknown can be read from his facial expression.

Edward just realized something.

"she doesn't have a name... She doesn't remember much about her parents. When you introduced yourself, she tried to think what her name was, but she couldn't remember... And the one she did... Was given to her by the bastards who held her in the lab... They called her SPECIMEN, she thinks that's her name." Edward said with a frown, thinking that he should torture the bastards before killing them.

A hiss was heard coming from the room where the girl slept. Then came Esme with an angry look.

"We will change it. We can't let her have that misunderstanding, the poor child deserves a good name!" she whispers, trying not to wake up the sleeping girl.

Putting a hand over his mate's arm and giving it a light squeeze. All three looked at each other and seemed to come to an understanding.

Hence, for a few hours, an intense battle... Ehem... discussion for the girl's name commenced.

AN: MC forgot about the system. 🙈😂
