Chapter one:

i was running late. really late this time. the sixth form had given me my final warning.
"Elizabeth Drake"- i really hated it when they used my full name- "If your late one more
time this month, you will be expelled from this college permanately" it wasn't my fault.
i couldn't help it,but L.A.C (London Academic College)had their rules and i couldn't fault
that.i was in a hurry though.a bit too much of a hurry to realise that i
had just knocked a glass on the floor.great going Libby.so i ran to the broom cupboard to
grab the hoover.it was then when i felt a cold breeze.impossible. but true. there was a
cold breeze coming from the cupboard.my curiousness took over and i opened the door.

it was dark. that was unusual. so i took a step forward.it was then when i tripped.i landed
on something weird, something green, grass. it was the when i saw the sign…….
" WELCOME TO FORKS" forks? as in forks,WASHINGTON!no way. im dreaming. i must be dreaming.
there's no way i could be at my flat in London one minute and then end up in Forks the next.
confused and possibly going mad at the same time, i sat down on the nearest park bench.
there was a newspaper laying next to me. i had a look and then i saw the date.october 2005.
2005! but i was in 2009! this is too weird.luckily i still had hold of my bags.my college
one and my overnight bag that i was planning to take round my best mate's house that
practically had most of my grasps of my reality.so im stuck here.i need to find a place.
and a job.And since im still 17 that means-gulp- going back to school.i walked around for
a while when i noticed one of the things that made me feel crazy. The olymipic wolf. mike
newton's hardware store.- even bigger gulp- i then realised that i was having a 'lost in
austen'moment here. i was in the world of twilight. i walked towards the shop, took a
deep breath and opened the door. a tall blonde boy came up to me with a cheeky grin on his
face. i bet i can guess what he's imagining right now."can i help you?" he asked politely.
i then found my voice and spoke politely back"hi, i'm new in town and i was wondering if
there was any jobs available? oh and also if you know where i can find an apartment?"
he looked shocked "wow your english. that's cool. actually there are a few jobs available.
Do you have any experience?" i nodded "then you've got the job. as for the apartments my
mom has one for available for renting, i'l just go get her. im mike by the way.
Mike Newton". ah so that's mike newton. wow the book has him described about right.
"Elizabeth Drake. but i prefer Libby."
