AN: So I'm posting with a little trepidation… I am not sure if this story is rated correctly and stories are being pulled left and right, right now. I know where I am going with this story will be walking a very fine line. Ultimately, I decided to continue to post and just take my chances.
I also need to apologize for taking so long to post I seem to have gotten lost in the world of reading fanfiction. I had not realized how long it had been. So for fans of my other stories also I will have posts up on those this week.
Chapter 7
"How did you find me?" Jasper asked from his place in the tree line.
"Charlotte. Although, to be fair they are still probably fighting over who should come. Esme thinks it should be her she wants to know your okay. Carlisle thinks Bella may need a doctor." Emmett said with a soft chuckle before adding "Rose thinks it should be her since she isn't going to want to approach Bella she just wants to see you. Honestly, I want to get a glimpse of our girl and I knew you didn't want to wait for this." Emmett said holding up a thick folder. "No one has seen it yet; it was delivered as I was getting in the jeep."
Jasper leaned down grabbing the folder before rearranging on his perch at the top of the tree, knowing Emmett would be joining him on his branch. Jasper looked up and listened when he heard Bella's phone ring, chuckling when he heard a thump then a loud. "Mother fucker! Yeah Mia I'm fine. I just stubbed my toe. Yeah head on over I'm getting in the shower now, coffees on. Just let yourself in. If I'm still in the shower, when you get here send Juan on back to soap my back." She said laughing. Emmett laughed at her noticing Jasper had narrowed his eyes before opening the file in his hand causing Emmett to laugh harder, "Sure act like that wasn't funny."
Jasper looked at the first picture for a minute before reading the page attached; it didn't take long to realize most of the information he already knew. Charlie Swan was divorced with one daughter. Had lived in Forks most of his life except for the four years he was away at college. He trained in profiling which was surprising to Jasper, and at the time of his death he was in the lead of a run for mayor of Forks. He was found dead in the woods after failing to return from a camping trip with his 4 year old grandson, also found dead. Both deaths were ruled animal attacks. His Daughter Isabella Swan was his soul beneficiary on his life policy and his estate.
Jasper studied the picture of the same little boy Bella had pictures of. Charles Ephraim Black, son of Isabella Swan and Jacob Black with whom he resided on the Quileute Reservation. Died just one week after his 4th birthday, his body found mutilated in the woods with that of his deceased grandfather. Jaspers mind was spinning "What type of hell had she been thru? Losing a child and her father." Jasper never had the pleasure of really knowing Chief Swan but he knew his reputation and how people felt about him. His death would have been a hard blow not just to his daughter but to Forks as well.
The next picture seemed to be an older version of Bella she was different around the eyes but there was no denying she was Bella's mother, making the man her step-father. The information on them was a bit different than Jasper expected to find. Both Renee and Phil Dryer's deaths were still open cases. Their bodies were found in what appeared to be a car crash but during the autopsy the coroner found both bodies were void of all blood. Yet, no blood was found in the car either. It was being ruled a homicide.
The woman in the last picture was of someone he knew, Angela Webber. Jasper closed his eyes thinking back to his time at Forks High. Angela had been a sweet girl, unlike the other girls at Forks High. She had impressed him with her genuine caring and kindness. Unlike Bella's other friends she didn't feel an ounce of jealousy or maliciousness'. There had even been a few times when Jasper had been overwhelmed with emotions in class and her concern as she asked if he was okay had endeared her to him. His soft spot for her had been a source of amusement for Emmitt and Rose while it angered Alice. It was with great trepidation he flipped the picture over to find out what had happened to her. Jasper was relieved, the coroner ruled her death an animal attack but based on the findings it appeared she was knocked unconscious before she bleed out. Jasper took comfort in the fact she didn't suffer and probably wasn't in pain. He handed the Emmitt all the previous pages before looking at the next thing Jinks had compiled. Jasper was on the third page when something stopped him in his tracks "Holy Shit!"…..
