10. Truth

I had screamed softly and opened my eyes. The ending of that horrible nightmare seemed so real. It took me at least 10 minutes to get back into reality and calm down.

The only problem is that my nightmare could be a reality, I could have either lived or died, but the situation was still so real to me. I started pacing back and forth in my room, searching for an answer, going back into my dream and rehearing every thought that my father had never mentioned to me.

I looked in the mirror at my reflection, the sun was coming in through the far window, and as usual, my skin had glowed in the sunlight. I went to my small balcony and stepped outside and starred into the forest, it was a beautiful day. I thought about Matt, and what he had said to me…

Right then my mind hit a rollercoaster. Sam had said that Matt murmured, "I'll tell them everything, you won't survive," I thought of my dream, my nightmare, how all the pieces suddenly were put together, Jacob, and me...and how I had changed more humanly, and how the Volturi may think….

"NESSIE!!" it was Alice, of course she saw this coming. "Nessie! I just saw Matt, and the Volturi, and how they want to come and check on you, but not just Aro and Caius, but with Felix, Marcus, Demetri, Jane and Alec!! What did he do?!?" he asked, panic was obviously in her voice,

I ran with her downstairs where everyone had apparently already heard some news, Dad read my thoughts and his eyes went wide immediately.

I immediately explained my dream and the nightmare and how Matt had supposedly gone to the Volturi and told them I was with Jake and how I am developing weird genes that not even Nahul knew about, and how he convinced them to come here.

It was almost Spring break, and Alice said the Volturi would arrive in about 2 weeks considering…that really didn't give me much time.

Alice had said that Mat made his final decision of going to tell the Volturi, but still planning out how to get to Volterra and speak with them and all that stuff, which gave us a little while to calm down and breathe.

As soon as I told my family the news, I rushed over to Billy's place as told everyone else the story and they were ready as ever. It was like déjà vu for most of us, considering this same thing happened almost 15 years ago, but there'd be much less vampires involved.

I walked home by myself since Jake was planning with the pack for awhile. I reached the huge white house when I was stopped by my father.

"Nessie, I need to ask you something." He said

"Anything," I answered back, looking around, not really staying focused.

"Please stay with me here, your dream right? Did you feel like you changed anything in it?" he asked with anxious eyes, what was he getting at?

"Uhh…no" I answered. I hadn't even finished it, but I could easily tell the outcome.

"Nessie I've been rethinking everything you've seen and done in your dream and I'm having a few thoughts..." he started.

"Ok...what do you mean by that?" I asked.

He sighed, and led me into the house where Carlisle was sting in his office turning through an old book.

"Nessie- I think you've gained another...skill" Carlisle began.

"Ok...so there's another weird thing about me, it won't take long to figure that out, and then we'll just add that one on to the list of thing to tell the Volturi." I explained.

Edward and Carlisle exchanged glances "This is different honey" Carlisle said.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Remember in you dream, how you thought everything looked so real, how you think you could have survived the outcome if you had the chance instead of waking up? And how Jacob just happened to be in there with you, and he answered because he was supposed to be?" Edward asked.

"Yeah…"

"Carlisle and I...have a theory-"he started. "We've been reading through some old legends and books written by vampires and well…."

"We think you can travel through the spirit world." Carlisle stated.

My jaw seemed to drop so low that I felt some kind of bug fly right into my mouth.
