"So," I started.
"Tell us about yourself." Carlisle said.
"Where do I start?" I asked.
"From when you were changed," he answered.
The Stories
Bella's POV
"I remember the day Emmett was changed. For three days, I had spend in our tree house. I went there at five a.m. and left at one a.m. those three days. Then a guy came and changed me. I woke up alone. I was thirsty so I ran out and got a deer. After that I couldn't believe what I did. I left home with the money I was saving. I went to Alaska overnight. I met these people, Denali? They took me in and help me keep the diet. They kept asking if I had a brother, it hurt me so I stayed quiet."
"I stayed with them for a year. Then I decided to leave. I thanked them and left. I met a few more vampires but couldn't be happy."
"I traveled the world, hoping to find a way to end my torture. I couldn't live without this guy," I said pointing at my brother, "then I met the Royalty. Aro couldn't read my mind. At the time, they were getting ready to feed. They made me feed with them. The blood was like nothing I had tasted before."
"Bella did you have a mate?" My brother asked me.
"Oh that," I said, "yeah but..." I stopped.
"What is it?" Emmy asked.
"Well he was the guy who changed me. Before I went with the Volturi I was dating him."
"What happened?" Rosalie asked.
I got up and started to pace.
"We traveled together. He was friendly and sweet. After years of being together, he asked me to marry him. I said yes. He was happy and we started planning everything. I would see him less than I did before. One day, I decided to follow him. He was at a place with his human friends. At first I was okay with it. I didn't care. Then she came in. She went up to him and kissed him. It took everything I had not to attack. I went home and waited for him to return."
"When he did, he brought the girl and a friend. I asked him about her. He just laughed at my face. They attacked me and his friend was able to take away someone's vampire powers. They took mine away and locked me in the basement." I took a deep breath. "I was in the basement for three months. THREE FUCKEN MONTHS! I didn't feed or move. I was too weak to even blink. They did visit me only to make fun of me. THEY TORTURED ME! And I couldn't even fight back."
"Then one day, on our anniversary, two other vampires came. They said they killed one of them. The other two ran away. You know who left. Him and his bitch. So they took me to Volterra. There I killed half the people that they were going to kill. I regret ever meeting him, but then again, I wouldn't have met my new sister and made two best friends."
"How was it? Being unable to feed?" Edward asked.
"Horrible. It's like a human without food and water. Superman and Kryptonite. It makes you so weak," I explained.
"You got your powers back?" Emmett asked.
"No," I said, sarcastically, "when the guy died my powers came back to me, but I was still very weak. I still am. It took a lot out of me. Emotionally and physically."
"Oh," he said.
"So who changed you guys?" I asked
"Oh I was changed first. I changed Edward, Esme, Rosalie, then Emmett. Jasper and Alice came to us," Carlisle told me.
"Who is with who?" I asked.
"Esme is my wife," Carlisle said.
"Alice is mine," Jasper said.
"And you know my wife," Emmett said smiling.
"I'm single," Edward said.
"So what are your stories?" I asked. "Let's start with the first person who was changed."
"Oh I was changed years ago. Before you all were thought of. In my time people burned whoever they thought were witches and vampires. So one day I was out and a vampire bit me. I changed and went into hiding. I travel just like you. And I even ended up with the Volturi. I later came to Chicago," Carlisle said.
"My turn. So I was dying of Spanish Influenza. My mother begged Carlisle to save me. So he bit me. I decided to travel alone for a while. Then I met back up with Carlisle who was with Esme," Edward said.
"I was married. My son had just died and I was devastated. So I went to a cliff and jumped off. At the hospital they said I had died but my heart beated slowly so it was undetectable. Carlisle found me and changed me. After that day I was his mate. Then we met Rosalie," Esme told me.
"Okay, I was the daughter of a banker. This guy wanted to marry me. I said yes and he was nice and sweet. Then one day I was walking home and he was there with his friends drunk. They raped me and beat me on the side of the street. Carlisle saved me and changed me and then I went to kill them. Then I was at the forest hunting when I met a guy," Rosalie said.
"You know the beginning of my story but they don't," Emmett told me, "I'm going to say it. Okay me and my little sister-" I interrupted him.
"Just five minutes!" I told him.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. So as I was saying, we were the best of friends. We did almost everything together so one day we decided to go to our tree house. We spend hours there every day. So it was dark while we were going home. Then a bear got in our way. I told her to leave. When she finally did the bear attacked and I woke with Rosalie staring at me. Then I woke up as one of you. We later met two other people," he said.
"I was a war guy. I went to war and a vampire bit me. She made me train Newborns and then I decide to leave. I stayed with this couple. They were in love and I could feel it. I didn't want to be a third wheel so I left again. I traveled alone until I met my wife," Jasper said.
"I don't know my human past. All I know is that I was in an asylum. The guy who changed me, told me that I was being hunted. I saw me meeting Jasper and the Cullens. So I went looking for him. I found him and we went looking for the Cullens." Alice told me.
"Emmy, how did you feel about the split?" I asked.
"Well, I was devastated," he told me.
"Yeah he went all crazy," Carlisle told.
"He was over thinking everything. So I didn't know why he was acting like that," Edward told me.
"Then he just froze. He didn't talk," Rosalie said.
"No matter what I sent him, he was always sad," Jasper added.
"If Rosalie ever got mad at him he would get ready for the Volturi," Alice said.
"And he never was as happy as he is now," Esme told me.
"So," I started.
"Yeah, how did mom and dad react to my disappearance? Emmett asked.
"That," I said looking down, "they died that same day."
"What? So you had no family left?" He asked.
"No," I whispered.
"How did they die?" Edward asked.
"They were murdered," I said.
"By who?" Emmett asked angry.
"Hmm, oh I don't know," I said sarcastically.
"Him," Emmett said.
I nodded.
"What's his name?" All of them asked me.
"J-James," I whispered really low.
"What?" Alice asked.
"James," I said a bit louder.
All of them froze.
"What?" I asked.
Emmett's POV
"What?" She asked.
"N-nothing," Rosalie stuttered.
"No, tell me," she told us.
'Oh how am I supposed to tell my sister that her ex, the guy who tortured her and killed my parents is our families' friend. That guy is going to get it,' I thought, or I thought I did.
"You're friends with him?" She asked.
We nodded.
"Oh," was all she said.
I felt so bad. I couldn't believe he did that.
"And her name?" Jasper asked.
"Victoria," she said.
"I knew something was up with that bitch," Rosalie told me.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
Everyone looked at Rose.
"She kept looking at Emmett. Like she knew him. She seemed to want to kill him. Like what she did to you," she told her and us.
Bella looked like she was going to kill them.
"Bella, revenge doesn't do any good," I told her.
She smiled at me. "Don't you want them to die too? After what they did?" She asks angrily.
"Yes, but that's not the way," I told her.
"BULLSHIT! YOU DON'T FUCKIN KNOW WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH! MY TWIN BROTHER DISAPPEARED, THEN MY PARENTS DIED! I HAD NO ONE!" She shouted at me.
"I lost my sister and my parents too," I told her.
"IT'S FUCKIN DIFFERENT! YOU HAD THESE PEOPLE! FOR YEARS I'VE HAD NO ONE! I'm not surprised you aren't waiting for me to leave," she whispered the end.
"No, I would never be happy if you left," I told her. I tried to hug her, but she pulled away.
"Yeah, right," she whispered.
"Belly Bear, I love you. You are my whole world. No one and I mean no one can ever replace you," I told her. I tried hugging her again, this time she let me.
"I love you too Emmy Bear," she told me.
"So what do you want to do?" I asked.
"I'm not in the mood to do anything," she said, plainly.
I looked around and noticed my family weren't around.
"How about a game with the family?" I asked.
"Okay," she said.
Bella's POV
We went to the table and only the "kids" were there.
"Where are your parents?" I asked Emmett.
"Carlisle works at the hospital. Esme went shopping," he told me.
"Let's play," Alice told everyone.
"Play what?" I asked.
"We don't know either," Rosalie told me.
"Okay, so we are playing the Cullen Olympics," Alice told us.
"Oh it's that time of the month already?" Emmett asked.
"Yeah, so who is with who?" Jasper asked.
"Me and my two best girls," Emmett told everyone.
"Okay, so the rules are?" Edward asked.
"No extra powers," Emmett told everyone. I took down my shield.
"There," I told him.
"There what?" He asked.
"I took down my shield," I said.
"Okay," he said.
We all went to the forest. It was night. Edward, Jasper, and Alice huddled up.
"What are we doing?" I asked.
"Easy, you see we have a series of competitions and the team with the most points wins. Usually it's two on two, but now we all get to play." Emmett explained.
"Okay, so what are the things we are doing?" I asked.
"Oh that," Emmett said trying to think.
"We race, swim, and fight. One person per game," she said.
"So who's doing what?" I asked.
"I'm fighting," Emmett told us.
"I'm swimming," Rosalie said.
"And I'm running?" I asked.
They nodded.
"You guys ready?" Alice asked.
We nodded.
"Okay so the order is?" I asked.
"Swimming, fighting, and the run," Edward told me.
"Okay. So the swimming? Where do you swim?" I asked.
"There is a lake near here and you have to swim around three times," Jasper told me.
"And fighting?" I asked again.
"We go to this clearing. There two people have to fight. The thing is to knock the person down for ten seconds or get them into the forest," Alice explained.
"And the running?" I asked.
"You have to run from where the forest begins to where it ends four times," Edward told me.
I nodded.
"Let's go," Jasper told us.
We went to the lake. It was so beautiful. The water was clean and clear. I could see the stars in the water.
Rosalie and Alice got to the edge.
"Ready," Edward said.
"Set," Emmett said.
"Go!" Jasper and I said.
They jumped in the pool and started swimming.
Next On Chapter 3: I Promise
"I promise to never leave again," he told me.
"How am I supposed to believe you? You said the same thing last time," I told him.
"Because after what I've been through, I don't want to go through it again," he said.
I nodded.
"Aren't you going to promise?" He asked.
"I, uh...um," I stuttered.
I couldn't promise him. Some things were keeping me from staying.
Find out what she is keeping from them in the next chapter.
