"Kenz, get up!" I felt a warm hand on my shoulder, attempting to wake me up and I immediately knew who it was.

"Go away, Sam." I tried to shrug his hand off of my shoulder and turn the other way but he wouldn't leave me alone.

"Kenzi, get up, Emily made breakfast and unless you don't want to eat, I suggest that you get up before the guys get here." Sam made another attempt to get me to get up but I was too lazy.

"I don't want to get up." I stayed in bed and tried to fall back asleep, only to feel myself get picked up and thrown over my brother's shoulder. "Saaam! I didn't want to get up!"

"You have to, you're on patrol today." He put me down in a chair and Emily soon brought out the food to the table.

"Wow, the princess is going on patrol? That's a surprise." Jared's voice was heard as he entered the house with the rest of the guys following.

"Shut up and don't call me princess, asshole." I was grabbing as much food as I could before the guys ate it all. There were several 'ooohs' heard from the guys as Jared's smirk quickly turned into a frown as he sat down at the opposite end of the table.

"Hey! Language!" Sam called from the kitchen.

"Whatever." I rolled my eyes and started to eat my food only to see a piece of bacon get stolen off of my plate.

"What's up, Little Red?" I look up to see Jake with a smirk on his face...eating my bacon.

"You-" I stopped talking as I stared at my plate to see nothing left. They took it all! "I hate all of you guys."

"Awe, you don't hate me, do ya Kenz?" Embry asked as he came up behind me and sat me in his lap.

"Nope." I replied before taking the muffin that was in his hand and eating it.

"She's worse than you all." Embry mumbled before grabbing another muffin from the plate on the table.

"How'd you get Sam to agree to let you dye your hair, anyway?" Quil asked before stuffing his face with food.

"I didn't. Seth and I were hanging out in town and I went to get it done."

"Sam must've been pissed. Hah, his little sister dyed her hair dark red behind his back." The guys all chuckled because almost no one got away with doing stuff behind Sam's back. You were pretty much dead if you did.

"Enough about her hair, Jake, go with Kenzi on patrol." Sam ordered.

"I don't need a babysitter." I turned around and faced Sam.

"With all of the leeches that have been around here, yes you do."

"Fine." I got off of Embry's lap and went to go get dressed before heading out with Jake.

"She's only going to be on patrol for a few hours so have her back early!" Sam's voice called out to us as we walked out of my house.

"Got it!" Jake yelled back before running into the woods and shifting, me following.

"Why didn't you want to be alpha?" I asked through the telepathic connection that we had.

"It seemed like too much responsibility at the time. I was just a teenager."

"You are just a teenager Jake, you're 16. You've been 16 for a while."

"I should be 18."

"Don't you think it'll be weird when you and Ness start dating once she's older?" I jumped over a fallen tree and continued to follow Jake around the woods.

"Eh, I don't think it will. She's going to be so beautiful, even more than she is now." I could picture the smirk that he would have on his face if he were in his human form.

"Okay, instead of your thoughts about Nessie invading my mind, why don't we go see her?" I suggested, hoping he'd say yes. Who am I kidding? He can't say no, its his imprint, he wouldn't say no even if he wanted to.

"Fine, but Sam better not kill me for this." He replied before changing directions and starting to run in the direction of the Cullens'.

"He won't, don't worry." I followed him and eventually we reached the Cullen house.

Jake and I shifted back and Edward let us in. Nessie immediately ran over to Jake and hugged him. Jake picked her up and spun her around before setting her down and following her to the piano.

"Kenzi, nice to see you." Carlisle said as he entered the room.

"Nice to see you too, Carlisle." I replied before walking further inside. I could feel Edward's eyes burning into the back of my head. He's trying to get in my head, and I know why. But he can't know, nobody can.

"Kenzi!" I heard Emmett say before he hugged me and picked me up. "Wait, you're not Kenzi, she has brown hair." He joked as he put me down and examined my face.

"I dyed it, isn't it awesome?" I asked, pulling my deep red hair to the side.

"It's fucking awesome, Kenz. How'd you convince your brother to let you dye it?"

"I didn't. I just came home with red hair and told him to deal with it."

"That's my girl." Emmett high-fived me and then I walked over to where Nessie was playing piano with Edward.

As I was listening to them play, the sound of glass shattering made the room go silent. I looked around to see Alice frozen in fear, the broken glass right in front of her. Vampires aren't clumsy, they never lose their balance, what's up with Alice?

Jasper immediately rushed to her side, along with Edward, who most likely knew what she was thinking based on the look on his face.

"It's the Volturi. They're coming for us." And with that, everyone froze. But, what are the Volturi?
