Value In Beliefs
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Twilight characters or anything Twilight related.
This takes place four years after Full Of Surprises and Forever Together. A new adventure begins for the Cullens, Jacob and their new family members Lucas, Krystal, Tiffany and Lucina. They will see new gifts to be discovered, new vampires to meet and a lesson to be learned over a belief.
When you have to start compromising yourself or your morals for the people around you, it's probably time to change the people around you.
Preface
How did we end up in this situation… again? Just when we thought we've seen the last of them, they show up just when we were about to turn back to find one of our family members who took off. We honestly don't have time for this but apparently, they don't give a care about our time as they are after our two half-vampire/half-human family members.
Now here I am being tied up with my adoptive sisters and parents, literally, by her threadlike strands that is able to extend at will coming from her head as we struggle to break free. I saw my husband with one of my adoptive brothers being surrounded by three of the same person going super fast that he couldn't even read his mind on what to expect next, while my other brother tries to fight the other guy but not even his muscles and the assistance of the wolf couldn't lay a finger on the person as he disappears in the smog. I saw my other brother being pinned down by their leader, after knocking away his blue-white sphere he shot and then I saw the big one cornering my daughter and my adoptive niece.
His teeth were ready, mouth-watering for his thirst from the scent they give as all of us remained helpless and occupied unable to do a thing to save them. My daughter and niece hugged each other for dear life and looked away in fear as he was ready to strike.
Chapter 1 – Needs To Know Now
Bella's POV
"What the hell is going on?" Jenko asked in confusion.
"This is what the hell is going on!" Capt. Dickson said showing a portrait of his daughter. Jenko looked at Schmidt and then at the photo in confusion until a bell went on.
"Oh shit! Oh Schmidt!" Jenko started laughing at his partner. "No! That is not happening!"
Nessie couldn't stop laughing.
"That is so funny!" She said in between laughs from watching the film.
"I told you that movie is hilarious than the first." Lucas said sitting from behind her. "Just imagine if Schmidt did get her pregnant."
"Her father would probably kill Schmidt." Edward said with a chuckle and then went serious. "I would to Jacob if he did so." I punched my husband in the shoulder.
"Geez Edward, it's nice to know that you love me too." Jacob said sarcastically as he chuckled and then kissed Nessie's cheek.
"Alice, how much longer until we get to New York so that I don't have to see more of that?" Emmett asked irritably.
"We'll be there in ten minutes." Alice answered casually while reading a fashion magazine as Jasper wrapped his arm around her.
"So Emmett, you think it's annoying when Nessie and Jacob, Bella and Edward or me and Lucas kiss each other but you don't think it's annoying when you and Rosalie do it?" Krystal asked with a laugh.
"That's different when Rose and I –"
"Rosalie!" Lucas said and Rosalie took the hint when she smacked Emmett in the head.
"OW!" Emmett cried and rubbed his head.
"Dude, no matter what you say it's always the same thing." Jasper said to Emmett.
"Yeah Emmett, what makes you and Rosalie different from us?" I asked with a laugh and Rosalie then smacked him in the head again.
"OW! I didn't get to say it yet!" Emmett turned to Rosalie.
"It doesn't matter because you always speak before you think." Rosalie said rolling her eyes even though she was amused.
"Why does that sound like someone I know?" Tiffany teased as she and her daughter Lucina giggled. Lucina has grown to be in a body of a fourteen year old despite that she's five years old. She would be considered to be Kylie Jenner in her teens.
"Would you all like keep it down?" Carlisle asked calmly. "We may have this class flight to ourselves but we can still cause a racket to other people if you keep this up."
"Can't we all just enjoy some peace and quiet for the next eight minutes please?" Esme asked.
"We could," Lucas said and then I saw him smirk. "But I don't think Emmett would."
"HEY!" Emmett said. Esme sighed as Emmett and Lucas started arguing and soon it led to one person or another into the conversation.
My family and I are on the plane to New York to visit Renee and Phil. They've been living in the state for a few years since Phil became the head coach of the New York Mets after retiring from playing. We are visiting there so that Nessie could 'explore college' since she's 'graduating' while Carlisle 'finds a job there' and the rest of us 'find a place to live' just in case. Notice all the quotations since Nessie has graduated high school multiple times and that it's no big news to us but it is to some people like Renee since she has no idea about us the way Charlie does. Charlie probably assumed about it but he just goes with it.
Anyway, our real reason for visiting Renee is so that Nessie can finally meet her grandmother since she is the only family member she hasn't met now that my daughter is the age she looks now at age eighteen. Nessie couldn't be more excited to meet Renee that I don't think Jasper can calm her down now matter what. I hope Renee doesn't ask too many questions about our appearance and such when we arrive. That is if we can survive the next five minute flight with every one of us minus Carlisle and Esme getting in on the constant and pointless bickering. Yep, we are one unique kind of family unlike any other.
"Attention all passengers, we are now arriving at New York. Please fasten your seatbelts as we make our decent."
"Finally!" Emmett said as we all put on our seatbelts. We can hear the plane rumbling even louder as it slowly descends to the ground. Once the plane landed and aligned itself to the gate, we grabbed our belongings and followed everyone out of the plane. We were at the baggage claim area where I saw her familiar face that was like looking in a mirror in a way.
"Mom!" I called her over and Renee looked over us and did a double take when she saw me but quickly recovered with a smile.
"My gosh Bella!" She cried as she ran over to hug me. "You look so beautiful! I didn't even recognize you. Marriage life really suits you!"
"It's great to see you too mom." I chuckled as I hugged her back.
"Edward!" Renee said lunging herself for a hug at my husband after she pulled back from me.
"It's nice to see you again Renee." Edward smiled. Soon, she was hugged by Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie, Emmett, Alice and Jasper. She then got to meet Jacob for the first time knowing who he is from Charlie years ago and then turned Nessie with a big smile on her face.
"Now, I'm gonna take a wild guess here that this girl who looks a lot like Edward is my granddaughter Renesmee?" Renee smile with her arms open causing my daughter to smile bigger than Renee.
"Grandma!" Nessie squealed as she ran over to hug her, a bit too hard. I'm surprised Renee didn't mind one bit or even noticed as she hugged Nessie back happily. When Renee and Nessie let go of each other after five minutes of hugging, Renee then noticed the other four members.
"Renee, we like to introduce you our newest family members." Carlisle said indicating them. "We adopted them around after Bella and Edward's wedding. This is my goddaughter Tiffany Stewart and her sister Lucina, Krystal Diamond, Esme's niece and her husband Lucas Stone."
Renee gave her hellos to them as they did the same and then looked at Lucas strangely.
"I'm sorry but you look strangely familiar." She said to Lucas as he smiled.
"Would the name Kendall Stone ring a bell to you?" He asked causing Renee to gasp.
"You're Charlie's best friend's son?" She asked in shocked and Lucas nodded his head. Of course Renee would remember Lucas's father at that time she married Charlie. "Wow, I didn't know Kendall had a child."
"Two kids actually." Lucas corrected Renee causing Renee to be even more surprise. "And if you have stayed a little longer at Forks you would've known." He shrugged.
"Wow," Renee said. "So, um, how is your father?"
Lucas's face fell a bit as he answered. "He's… gone, with my mom and younger sister. They died in a fire when I was eighteen." Krystal took his hand and gave it a firm squeeze. I hate seeing how he has to retell the story about his tragic loss caused by the Volturi and neither did anyone else.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Renee said sadly.
"It's okay." Lucas said giving a small smile. "Look, we're not here to talk about my loss. We're here to explore while visiting you."
"Oh yes, you guys will love this city." Renee said excited. "It would be better if the sun was shining though."
"We can manage without it." Emmett teased. "It's not like we're scare of it to hurt ourselves. OW!" He cried Jasper smacked him in the head. Clearly he will never stop with the jokes or things before he speaks… ever.
"Well let's grab your stuff and head out of here." Renee said. "Phil should be at our place now after practice and is dying to see you all. I even have something for Renesmee when we get there."
"This is all I needed." Nessie said hugging her grandmother again causing Renee to burst into tears. We soon grabbed our luggage, most of them are Alice's (it's only for the weekend Alice, not for a month) and soon Renee joined us in the passenger vans where they drove us out of the airport and headed towards Renee's place. This will be a nice and exciting trip I'm sure.
