Solstice Shadow
Hi! Thank you for reading my Story!

I hope you enjoy!
Synopsis- Renesmee is five. Well, Physically and mentally the age of twelve. She's at a point in her life where she doesn't feel understood by anyone. When her family decide to uproot and move to Alaska, because they can't pull of the same show and dance in Forks anymore, Renesmee has to become comfortable in her own skin as a half-breed-hybrid vamp. This story mostly revolves around Renesmee
Too many people grow up. That's the trouble with the world, too many people grow up. They forget. They don't remember what it's like to be 12 years old. They patronize, they treat children as inferior. Well I wont do that.
–Walt Disney
Chapter 1
Whispers. They're always whispering. As if I can't hear them. I always wake up to the sounds of their whispers. It's inevitable. Ever since I could remember... which is forever. I can even remember my mother's womb. It being so warm there, even then hearing their whispers. As I lay here in bed, I can hear it. My name. Renesmee. My name being said over, and over again. I squeezed my eyes closed, tightly, muting out all other senses just to hear what they were saying. Being half vampire did come in handing at times like this, "Who's going to break the news to her? Who's going to tell her that we have to leave? I don't want to be the one to do it. Not me, not this time!" I heard my mother, say. What were they talking about leave? My eyes shot open. Someone was coming towards my room. I don't want to leave. I love my life here in Forks. My things were here, my friends, my best friend, Jacob Black, I couldn't leave without Jacob.
Just as I finished that thought my bedroom door creaked open. The light from the hall way lit up my whole room. I closed my eyes. It was my Father, Edward. He tip toed to the side of my bed and knelt down. I felt the back of his cool hand brush my bangs behind my ear, then down my cheek and then finally rest under my chin. "Peanut?" My dads voice hummed in my ear. I opened my eyes to meet his. My dad had the most beautiful golden eyes I've ever seen. I wish my eyes were the glowery yellow his were. In fact, my whole family had beautiful Golden eyes. I was the odd ball. I had brown ugly eyes. When I was younger, I would squeeze my eyes shut so hard, thinking that, that would make them yellow. But, it didn't work. My eyes were always. Brown.
"Hi." My dad smiled at me. He always seemed to be so happy when he saw me. Especially after I wake up. I'm the only one in my family who also sleeps. I sleep, not a lot but enough, and eat normal food. I mean, what do you expect from a family of vampires.
"What time is it dad?" I yawned, pretending that I had been asleep the whole entire time.
"It's about 4 a.m. I'm sorry it's so early Pea, but we have to talk." My dad said to me.
I sat up. This is serious. I lifted my right hand and touched my dads marble face. I showed him, through my thoughts and touch, what I had heard my mom whisper.
"Ahh. So you heard that did you?" My dad said. I nodded. My dad sat down on the bed next to me and looked around my bedroom. We lived in a cozy little cottage on my Grandpa Carlisle and Grammy Esme's land. My room was my escape from everything. I loved my room. He scanned my room then looked back at me. "Nessie, we all knew this day had to come. People are starting to talk, or at least think, something is up.." my father started to explain. Think, my father of course had been listening to people in towns thoughts for months, about me. I've been on this earth for about five years, and I'm never really allowed to go into town, but when I do, I'm always introduced to people as someone new. My fathers long lost niece, a cousin on my moms side.. The only people who knew who I really was were the Quileute wolf pack, who my best friend, Jacob was the leader ofthat pack, my gramp poppa Charlie, and family. I honestly don't think my Gramp poppa knows what I am, but he just simply says he doesn't want to know. I look and feel 12. Or at least what I think a 12 year old should feel like.
"So.. the time has come Nessie Darling. It's time for us to leave, just for a while, we will come back here, but right now we must leave before something happens." My dad was still talking, but all I could do was think. I'm a freak, I thought. I'm a freak, and everyone knows it. I ruin everything. My father broke my train of thought and held me close. "Renesmee, you are no freak. Don't blame yourself for any of this. You are perfect. You are my beautiful daughter. This isn't your fault. We have to leave, we always knew we had to. It's not just because of you, but it's all of us, we all look young." My father tried to reassure me. Jacob. What about my Jacob. I started to sob uncontrollably. I touched my fathers face and showed him an image of me and Jacob laughing in the forest.
My father sighed. "Jacob needs to stay here. He needs to protect his people. You know this Renesmee. He can't go where we're going..."
When my father said this, I wanted to scream, yell at him, but I couldn't. I'm so bad with words, even when I was angry. I didn't want him to hear how angry I was at him so I started to recite the pledge of allegiance in my head. He let out a chuckle. "Oh Pea, I don't know what to do with you." He kissed my forehead and walked out of the room.
How could they say Jake couldn't go where we're going? He has to! Was it because he wasn't a vampire, like us? Or was it because he was a warewolf? All I could think about at that moment was finding Jacob and telling him what was going on. He wouldn't let them take me away. I threw on pair of dirty jeans laying on my floor and put my curly bronze hair up in a ponytail and pulled my hoodie over my nightgown and closed my bedroom door. I had to go see Jacob. I opened my window and jumped out of it. I ran as fast as I could, which was pretty fast, through the falling rain, knowing it was soaking me, but hardly feeling it, to the Quileute reservation and up to Jacobs window. I saw him sleeping. He slept so peacefully. He had no idea what was instore for us. Not a thought in the world. I tapped lightly. He didn't budge. He sure can sleep. I tapped again. This time he shifted in his bed. His muscular body looked as though it was going to crush the sheets right under him. I didn't want to waste anymore time. I opened his bedroom window and climbed in. They would realize any second that I'm missing. I watched him sleep for a second. People probably think it's weird seeing this tall beautiful man hanging out with a freak like me. This is probably another reason why we're leaving. I jerked Jacobs arm, which made my hand feel ten times smaller than it really was. "Jake! Wake up! This is no time to sleep!!" Jacob popped up jerking my body halfway across the room. He's lucky that didn't hurt me, very much.
"Nessie! You scared the hell out of me!!! What's wrong?! What's going on? Are you okay??" He asked me lifting me up off the floor.
"Jake I'm fine.. it's just.." I start to sob again. I couldn't speak. I press the palm of my hand against his warm face and show him what my father said.
"Where I can't go? What does that mean?!! No. Where ever you go I go. You are my responsibility. I'm not going to let them leave without me!" He pushes my hand off his face and walks over to his dresser and then looks at me. "Give me a minute okay Nessie, I will take care of this. Go ahead and head home. I will be there soon after. Thank you for coming to me. We will fix this." Jacob told me then kissed the top of my head.
I went back to my house and climbed back into the bedroom window. As I tried to close the window quietly my mom was there waiting for me.
"Renesmee Carlie Cullen. So glad you could join me." She said in a stern voice. Awh man. In trouble again. I walked over to my bed and sat on it. We sat in silence for what felt like an hour, but I'm sure was only a few seconds. I reached over to touch my moms face and show her where I went, but she stopped my hand mid way "Oh Renesmee, I don't want to hear it! I know exactly where you went." She replied. She then stood up and started walking towards the door. Without turning to face me she starts to speak,"I know what you're feeling. We're not doing this to make you upset. This is something that has to happen. I'm sorry love. Start packing. We leave in the morning. No questions."
