"That's it!" yelled my mother, "I've had enough! Just get out! All of you! Out!" With that command, my two brothers, my two sisters, and me got out of the car. We began walking, and none of us looked back. We didn't hear our mother begging us to come back either; of course, I knew she wouldn't, but I know my siblings hoped she would. My name is Isabella (Bella) Swan. I'm 16 years old. My two brothers are: Emmett, 17, and Jacob, 9. My two sisters are: Jordan, Jacob's twin so she's also 9, and Meggie, 6. That woman, who so unceremoniously kicked us out of the car, was my wonderful mother, Renee Swan.

You see, Renee was incredibly poor, and so she could not afford a house, therefore, we lived in the car. This was probably not a very wise decision, seeing as how this car is a big rusty red truck, the guzzles gas like you wouldn't believe. Anyways, I guess it wasn't really Renee's fault for everything that happened. Emmett and I have been sure for a while now that there's something wrong with her in the head, but we can't afford to take her to the doctor, besides if we did, and there was something wrong with her, then we could possibly be sent to an orphanage. I guess it's for the best that she kicked all of us out. The five of us kept walking, the car had been parked in the parking lot of a mall, and right now, according to the time on the radio of the truck, it was about 11:10 pm. As soon as we crossed the road, there was a forest, we decided we would spend the night there, and decide where to go from there the next morning.

I already had an idea; I just needed to run it by Emmett, because he was undoubtedly going to be the one in charge since he's the oldest. I know he can handle it, he's a really fun-loving guy, but he also calls himself 'the protector' because he thinks it's his job to keep all of us safe. We made our beds out of leaves, and used our backpacks for pillows. I waited till the kids were asleep before talking to Emmett. Once even Jacob was snoring, I turned to Emmett. "I have an idea," I whispered, for fear of awaking the others. "What is it?" he asked, "I hope it's good cuz I don't have any at all." I thought mine was pretty good, but you never know, "Well," I started, "I was thinking, that we could, um, you know…" Now I didn't know if I should say it. What if it really was a bad idea? I didn't even know how Emmett would take it. Besides, what if it didn't work because the person I thought we should go see didn't…. want us? That's what Renee had always told us, that Charlie kicked her out because he didn't want kids. I find that hard to believe though, if this were true, why would he wait until all five of us were born? No, I don't believe her; in fact, I know that she's lying. I still remember that night clearly.

Flashback:

We had all gone up to bed, Renee and Charlie were downstairs, and Renee was yelling, drunk, as usual. Charlie was doing his best to keep her calm, but it wasn't working. "I hate you and this town!" Renee yelled "I'm taking the kids and leaving!" she'd made this threat quite often, so I wasn't too worried. At least not until she came running up the stairs. "Bella, Emmett, Jacob, Jordan, and Meggie wake up now!!" She yelled, thundering up the stairs. "Renee, please don't!" Charlie pleaded. Renee ignored him. Charlie's house wasn't big, but there were enough rooms, Emmett, Jacob, and I all have our own rooms, Meggie and Jordan share a room, and of course Renee and Charlie shared a room. She stormed into my room, ran to my closet, and began throwing my clothes into a bag. "Mom, what are you doing?" "We're leaving!" she said, "No!" I said, tears streaming down my face, "We can't!" "We can and we will she answered, as she finished packing my bag. She ran out of the room and packed everyone else's bags, and ushered us out into the car. As we drove away, Charlie stood in the doorway, illuminated by the light behind him, tears streaming down his face.

End Flashback

At the time, I was 10 years old. "Bella!" Emmett said waving his hand in front of my face, I must have zoned out. "Sorry," I said, shaking my head. "Now what was your idea Bella? I don't have a plan, so whatever yours is, we're gonna have to go with it. I'm sure it's a good one!" I took a deep breath, "Ok, I think we should go to Forks, you know, to Charlie." I waited anxiously for his response. He looked at me, "I don't know Bells, I mean, what if Renee was right, what if he doesn't want us?" Great, I was hoping he would think exactly the opposite and comfort me. Now I would have to be the one to convince him. "Emmett, come on, don't you remember that night? He didn't want us to leave! Remember? He said "Renee please don't!"" "I don't know," he said. "Come on Em, it's the only plan we've got." "Fine, we'll leave tomorrow," he responded. I smiled, and rolled over, and fell asleep. I was content. That is, until I thought about my brilliant plan, and discovered a flaw. Charlie lives in Forks, Washington. Right now, we were in Phoenix, Arizona. Now, for most folks, it wouldn't be a problem to get some plane tickets and fly, but when you have five kids, and you add all of their money together, and your sum comes out as $15 dollars. Then, it becomes a problem.
