Disclaim. All things Twilight related are not mine. I only own my ideas, and the name Alexandra Rose Brandon, which I might use for things later, so be warned.
There are two sides to every coin. For twins though, they seem to be each other's other side. Mary was younger than Bella at one point, but now she was older.
Back then Bella's name was Alexandra, but no one knew about her outside of their household. Cynthia and Mary would play together, despite the age difference, but Allie was something else altogether. She only got along with Mary most of the time and was considered evil and sadistic by other members of their family. She had this glint in her eye eighty percent of the time that caused Mary to shudder, but the other twenty percent she would be the poster child for the early twentieth century with Mary and Cynthia.
Mary, on the other hand, was always the sweet one. She hardly did anything wrong, and helped her mother care for her younger sister. As the years went by, things shifted. She was thought to be a witch because she would have visions of the future.
She saw her mother being murdered, but not when.
And not with Allie.
After both of them died, and her father remarried, she didn't know what to do with herself, other than try to care for Cynthia. Her step-mother loved her sister though in a way she would never be loved again. At seventeen, that's how it seemed, and all she wanted to do was leave.
Her father had other plans for her though. She ran away, knowing that her vision would come true, but she ended up in an asylum instead. She was back to being a sweet girl instead of one like her twin.
Just after her nineteenth birthday though, she was turned into a vampire to avoid being drained of her blood. When she fled from the area she grew up in, she started going by her middle name. Alice.
Bella always felt close to Alice, but what she didn't realize was that this was the first time in over eighty-five years that she would live passed seventeen years of age. She came close to living to eighteen once. Alice was near, but not near enough. Now though? Now what she didn't realize was that, although she would be marrying Edward, the real reason she was around was because she had been looking for Alice since she died in 1918.
What she didn't realize is that she had Alexandra Rose Brandon's soul and had been looking for her sister ever since she had been taken from her all those years ago.
