Twilight Revolution

Introduction:

When her mother Renee got sick, Bella wasn't devastated or even sad. Her mother had never been a good one. Bella had basically had to raise herself, hoping that someday, the truth about her father would be revealed to her. She had always had the same dream, that her father would come out of nowhere and rescue her, take her with him far away from her mother where she'd be happy forever but how could he when he didn't even know she existed.

Until then, she had been helped by her mother's neighbors, the Cullen's, in raising herself the right way.

Carlisle Cullen was the father of the family that lived right next door from Bella and Renee and the local doctor. He had been, in his youth, some sort of prodigy and used to work in one of the best hospital of the country but after the black-out, he moved his family in their vacation house, far away from the chaos of the big cities and had opened a practice there. He had taught Bella everything he knew and when his sons trained to defend themselves and to hunt, she was with them, learning everything that could be useful eventually either for her self-defense or to feed herself.

Their mother, Esmee, had taught Bella everything she knew about plants, which was a lot. Which one healed, which one hurt, which one could be consumed and how… She had learned everything from that family, along with her friend Alice who preferred to pretend she wanted to learn while she tried to win one of the Cullen boy's heart.

For a while, Bella even dated one of their sons, Edward Cullen, the youngest, the one who was just a couple of years older than her. It could have become serious between them, she really loved him but he had broken her heart, choosing to join the Monroe Militia when he knew how she felt about these men. She hadn't seen or talked to him since he had left and every time he came home to visit his parents, she would stay away, ignoring his presence completely. From what she had overheard from his brothers and his parents, he had had several girlfriends. Tanya, Jessica, Lorene, Kate, Irina… None of them serious. Bella even wondered why she cared to remember their names. Edward might have been her first boyfriend and her first love but he didn't mean anything to her anymore.

When her mother got sick a few weeks ago, along with a few town's people, Bella, who was very good at healing people and knew of a way to ease her mother's pain, had traded her science against the truth of her father's identity and it had taken her mother a couple of weeks of unbearable pain and fever before she finally agreed to her daughter's deal and told her that her father was Miles Matheson, the man who used to rule by Monroe's side and was hiding somewhere, on the run from Monroe himself with a price over his head.

She had given her daughter this news with a wide smile, hoping to torture her daughter with the fact that her father was friends with a man she hated. She knew how Bella hated Monroe, his republic and his militia. She figured that she would also hate who her father was and be sad about it.

Renée had been sure that the news of her daughter's father's identity wouldn't change anything in their dynamic and that Bella would keep on taking care of her, cooking for her and everything she had done since she was old enough to walk but she had been wrong. Bella had left soon after, leaving to her mother only a couple of doses of medicine before she packed most of her things in a large backpack and went on the road, looking for her father in hope that he'd be happy to see her and that he'd want to know more about her.

So, this is only an introduction to the story. I don't know how long it's going to be.
