They came out of the trees, there strides long, and gracefully. Two females, and a male, from what I could see. The first female was tall, elegant and had long red hair that flowed down her back like a river. She had deep blue eyes that were alert, and ready. She was a haft and haft like me. The second female was short, but not as short as Alice or I. She had blond hair was long, and put into many corn-rolls on the top and sides of her head. She had deep brown eyes, that looked like puddles of mud. The male had vivid gold eyes, and his dark brown hair was wisped around his face, though it was really quite short.

I could also hear two really strange heartbeats. The type of heartbeat the only haft and hafts have.

And I also knew the male. I quivered in excitement, and I smiled. Hopefully he remembered me like I remembered him.

"Anna." the male said as he stared at me.

I squinted. There was no Anna in our group.

The short blond-headed girl smiled. "Daddy, do you think it is her?"

"I though the girl who we were looking for was called Reese." the red-headed one seconded.

"Anna." the male repeated, shaking his head. "My daughter's name was Anna."

"Do you remember being called Anna?" Alice whispered in my ear.

"No," I whispered back.

"Please, strangers, we do not wish to fight." Carlisle said, walking forward with his hands at his sides.

"Neither do we." the male said. "My name is Alan. These are my daughters, Lisa and Melody."

The little blond-haired girl shot her hand up. "Ooh! Ooh!"

Alan smiled. "Yes, Lisa?"

"I know the blond one!" she cried as she frantically pointed at Carlisle. "Oh . . . what was his name . . . oh yeah! Carlisle!"

Carlisle grinned. "Yes. That is my name."

Edward laughed, but then he fell silent as Bella's gaze stopped his laughter in its tracks.

Alan stopped smiling. "Lisa." he said her name. "How do you know him?"

"Well, the one time that I kinda went out with Mel . . . It was her fault too!" Lisa squealed pointing a finger at her sister.

"Was not!" Melody screamed back. "It was your idea! You said 'Oh! Look at him! He's a doctor and he's a vampire! Let's get hurt!'"

"But you said, 'Okay!' and we both jumped out of the tree!" Lisa argued.

"Girls!" Alan yelled.

The girls fell silent automatically.

"I'm sorry for the actions of my daughters. They meant no harm." Alan quickly apologized.

"Of coarse." It was like Carlisle expected that.

Esme quickly stepped forward, taking a spot beside Carlisle. "My name is Esme." she introduced herself. "And this is our family," she said as she motioned to the rest of us.

"I'm Bella, and this is my husband, Edward, and my daughter, Renesmee." Bella sang as Nessie giggled and Edward put his arm around her waist, keeping her close to him.

"I'm Rosalie, and this is my husband, Emmett." Rosalie lilted as Emmett's hand grasped her's.

"I'm Alice!" Alice warbled. "And this is my husband, Jasper!"

Jasper nodded politely.

"I'm–I'm . . ." I choked on my own name. "Reese. My name is Reese." I stepped forward so that I was on Carlisle's left side. "I believe you may know me as Anna."

Alan then looked like he had just swallowed a bug. "Anna," he murmured.

"Reese," Lisa whispered.

"Anna." Melody stated.

Alan stepped forward, his arms outstretched. "Please, if you are my child, tell me the name of your mother."

My knees were ready to give out. Maybe this guy was my father, but maybe he wasn't. I began walking forward, every step I took, I could hear Seth whimper. I was in front of him now, and my eyes began filling with tears.

"Karen." I whispered.

Alan embraced me, and he screamed into my shoulder. "Oh god, Anna!"

The tears spilled over as I hugged him back, and I began to sob. "O-O-Oh . . ."

I could feel everyone's stares boring into my shoulder, but I didn't care. This man was my father, and no one could separate us now.

But then, as I though that, and as I felt two other people hugging me still as my father hugged me, I remember one very important thing.

Something I had promised to someone dear and special to me.

My promise to Esme.

I couldn't break it.

Not now.

Not ever.
