Edward walked away from Bella's home after helping her pack for college. He couldn't believe that they were finally going to be apart. He knew it was for the best. Bella belonged with her soul mate and he knew he wasn't it. He figured it out when he finally was able to read her mind. Bella took the break up surprisingly well then again she was heading off to college and it's hard to maintain a long distance relationship. She also had realized she wasn't as in love with Edward as she thought.
As Edward climbed into his car he heard sirens. As he pulled out onto the road and headed toward home he saw the lights. He was two blocks from the road that lead to home when he saw the accident. He started becoming overwhelmed by the thoughts of others. He caught a glimpse of Emmett and Rosalie off in the woods watching the scene. Death was evident at the scene and vampire scents were involved. He waited until he was allowed to pass. Charlie waved him on with a sad smile. He read Charlie's mind. He knew that Bella and Edward were breaking up. He also knew that Edward was keeping a secret.
Edward pulled onto the road leading him home and once he was far enough away he pulled over. Rosalie and Emmett came running at warp speed up to his car. They jumped in. "What the hell happened? I smelled vampire and death."
"Victoria came back with a couple friends. We killed her and burned her but while we were doing it humans saw us doing it. Thankfully they didn't recognize us." Rosalie said.
"Rosalie you know that doesn't matter. All that matters is they saw you. The only thing that will stop them from telling on you is death." Edward said then the pieces started falling in place. "There is more you two aren't telling me and you are keeping your thoughts to yourselves so want to tell me what I am missing?"
"Bro if you think about it you will know what happened exactly." Emmett said as they pull into the garage.
As they get out Esme comes out. "Bella called she wanted to know that Edward made it home ok. She apparently heard about the accident already."
Edward quickly ran into the house and called Bella. "Bella, I am fine but I can't tell you the full story right now. Can we meet at our special spot tonight around 10?" He asked her.
"Sure Edward," She replied. Even though they had broken up they remained great friends.
After hanging up the phone he finally pieced all the pieces together. "Ok so Victoria was harming the humans in the car and you killed and burned her because of it."
"Right," Rosalie answered.
"Ok that isn't bad but what about the comment about humans coming upon your killing and burning Victoria?"
"Bella's dad arrived at the accident scene and he caught her biting the accident victims after the accident. We bit and sucked the venom out. I don't know how we managed to stop but we did. He then watched as we chased after Victoria. I know he will have many questions." Emmett starts to explain.
Just then the doorbell rang. Esme headed down to answer it. "Guys you know that's bad that the chief caught you!" Edward said just as Esme walked in with Charlie.
"How can we help you chief?" Emmett asks in a friendly tone.
"I know you were involved in the accident but I am not sure how. I also don't know what exactly I saw. Can you explain this to me?"
"If we explain you will either not believe us or will try to lock us away." Rosalie answered.
"I will explain if you promise to listen with an open mind and not to want to lock us away. If you feel we are a threat to the community we will move far from here for a very long time." Edward speaks up.
"I am open minded and I don't want to lock you guys away I got a feeling you may have rescued one of the two girls." Charlie says. "The second one is being looked at by your father as we speak."
"Why wouldn't she make it sir?" Emmett asks.
"Well she was complaining about a lot of pain and that her head was hurting. She was saying that it was like it was on fire." Charlie says.
"But I thought we got all the venom out." Rosalie mutters.
"Venom," Charlie questions.
Edward realizes now is the time to explain. "We are vampires, sir." Edward says and waits just a moment. "We are what we like to call vegetarians because we don't use human blood to live we use animal blood. Bella knows all of this and was almost turned into a vampire that time after the baseball game when she 'broke up' with me. I will explain that in a moment but it does tie into this story. There were three vampires passing though the area at that time two men and a woman. They were the ones that killed all those people at that time. We killed the one male and the other turned out to not be of concern at the time. When he learned we lived here he was all for getting out of our 'territory' and when the other male began to hunt Bella he warned us of how dangerous the other was. He also warned us to watch out for the female. The only way to stop a vampire who is attacking like they did is to kill and burn them." Edward paused looking around. The thoughts were all supportive from his family. Alice and Jasper had joined the group in the kitchen at some point during his explanation. He concentrated a moment to read Charlie's thoughts.
Charlie was thinking about how his daughter had been in grave danger and this group must have protected her.
"Yes, we did protect Bella, sir. I will get to that in a moment but please stop thinking so much, sir." Edward said. "Well the female vampire escaped. We thought we wouldn't be seeing her again but unfortunately she has come back in town. She caused the accident of the two humans in order to suck their blood. If she was resorting to causing an accident instead of a more friendly approach she must have been a few days without blood. She had friends with her. She and one of the others had bitten the humans when Rosalie and Emmett found them sucking the blood." Edward paused again feeling new thoughts in the room. He turned to the doorway and found Carlisle standing there.
"Edward why are telling the chief all of this? Isn't it bad enough you let Bella in on our little secret?" Carlisle said but he sounded as though he really didn't mind.
"Carlisle let me finish." Edward answers.
"Are all children this disrespectful calling their parents by first names now days?" Charlie questioned quietly.
"Oh they are not my real children. I have been the cause of them being vampires but we can explain that all later chief." Carlisle said.
Edward continues on. "Emmett and Rosalie tried to stop the two human females from turning into vampires. However from what you told me and I am sure Carlisle can confirm this for us the one is now a vampire."
"Yes we will be adding another sister to the family." Carlisle responds in an odd tone.
"Was it the blond girl or the dark haired one?" Rosalie asked suddenly.
"Does that matter?" Edward questions.
"I want to know which of us stopped sucking too soon." Rosalie said.
"It was the dark haired one named Joy." Carlisle answers.
"I was so sure I had cleaned her blood." Rosalie said with a hint of sadness in her voice.
"It happens to the best of us Rosalie." Carlisle says before nodding for Edward to continue.
"As I was saying they were trying to stop them from turning into the monsters that we are. We know that we are monsters and in the past each of us has killed but we try not to. When they thought they had all the venom out of the two girls they disappeared into the woods as you saw because they were hunting down the woman, Victoria to tear her to pieces and burn her so that she couldn't do this again." Edward finished explaining the first part of the situation.
"So what happens to the girl named Joy?" Charlie asks.
"She will join us and we will teach her how to live off of animal blood instead of human blood." Jasper stated. "It is not easy to do this but it does become easier with time."
"How does all of this tie to Bella?" Charlie asks starting to relax.
"Remember how Bella was in a rush to get out of town after breaking up with me right after that night she played baseball with my family?" Edward said and when Charlie nodded Edward went on to tell him the real story of that night.
"I can see why Bella was so close to you from that point on then." Charlie replied.
"I am sorry we have hid this from you so long." Carlisle responds.
"No," Charlie responds. "Don't be. I fully get why you did. Don't worry I will not tell anyone nor will I charge you in this case. I will however be turning to you for more answers when cases arise in the future."
"We fully understand," Carlisle says. "I promise you we will help in anyway we can. However I must ask you to leave because we are bringing Joy home in a few moments and you being human will be a dangerous risk we can't take with a new vampire. I hope you can understand."
"I understand and if there is anything that I can do to help make your family out in the future minus giving you a meal let me know." Charlie responds and the group laughs feeling much better now that the chief of police knew their secret. Charlie leaves and the Cullen family prepare for the newest member.
