It had been a few weeks since Mikaela arrived in Forks, even though she had ventured across the world during that time because of her little game with Jackson, but the little town was beginning to sort of grow on her in a way. It had a charm to it that nowhere else in the world she had ever been to did...like it drew her in for some odd reason she couldn't quite nail down. But, whatever it was, she was certain that this was a place she might stay for a while. After all, she had done nothing but wander for the last forty years, so settling somewhere for a while might be a nice change. Mikaela was definitely one for change...change of scenery, change in lifestyle, and just change in general. Her life had been all about change since she was created and for once, she wanted something to stay the same.
Sitting on a huge boulder in the center of the forest, she listened to the sounds all around her. There was a rabbit burrowing about fifty yards off and a small herd of deer about a mile away, but not another soul capable of inherent thought for at least five miles. Their thoughts were a dim whispering in her head as she blocked them out to concentrate and meditate. It was something she had perfected in her time as a vampire, after learning she had this...blessing, as some call it, of hearing others' thoughts and projecting her own thoughts into their minds when she pleased. But now she was able to tune them out and focus on only her thoughts, which were all focused on Jackson at the present. He had taken over her every thought and she could not even help it. Growling at the interruption of her meditation, she jumped from the boulder to the ground, landing in a crouched position as she began to prepare herself for the hunt.
