Intro/Timeline
June 20th, 1983.
Nineteen year old Charlie Swan walked up the path leading to his parents home, having just come back from spending time with Billy Black and Harry Clearwater up at the Quileute Reservation. Stepping onto the porch he stopped almost stepping on a basket that had been placed right in front of the door. He kneeled down before it and was shocked when he saw a baby barely two weeks old swaddled in a knitted blanket.
The teenager immediately lifted the baby into his arms and despite how cold it was outside the baby seemed to be content in only the knitted blanket. He stepped forward and a letter fell from the bottom of the blanket. Charlie picked up the letter and his brows furrowed as he saw it was addressed to him.
Shifting the baby to one arm he opened the letter and began to read.
Charles Swan,
Charles as you read this you must be wondering why a child was left on your doorstep. The baby is yours, she is a product from the night of passion we had nearly ten months ago. Her name is Cornelia, give her your families name and add another if you wish. I would have kept her with me, but because of reasons you may never know she has been given to you to raise.
Please take care of her, despite her being with you as she grows, I will always love the little angel that we made together.
Cordially Yours,
Hama.
His chocolate colored eyes moved from the written letter to the sleeping baby in his arms, his daughter. "I do remember that night," he whispered to himself, his eyes still locked onto Cornelia. "My little Elia, Cornelia Kay Swan." As Charlie took the baby inside, there was a tree sprouting in a greenhouse of home at the edge of town.

Author's Note: Thank you guys for reading this, I know I kind of spoiled what she was for you guys but it was pertinent to the story and I thought you should know now. So please let me know what you think of a Naiad being in this, I mean if Vampires and Shapeshifters are in this why not add one more supernatural being.
I also have changed a couple things as to who I have in mind to portray some of the characters, well mainly just two Carlisle Cullen and Bella Swan.
For Carlisle Cullen instead of Peter Facinelli (I'm sorry to those of you who believe that Peter is the only one that should ever portray Carlisle) I've decided on David Beckham because I think he also fits the description for Carlisle in the book and I'd like to imagine the head of the Cullen clan with a little bit of scruff. And though David Beckham's hair isn't white blond like the movie he is a shade of blonde.
For Bella Swan instead of Kristen Stewart I have decided to go with Emmy Rossum.
