Cody finds out what he believes Nessie is.
Chapter 11 – Now We Know
Renesmee's POV
"I'm a what?!" I asked.
"A vampire; you know, Count Dracula, have fangs, turns into a bat, –"
"I-I-I know what a vampire is." I said like I don't need to hear more. "But that's ridiculous."
"But Nessie, think about it," Dad said looking through his notes. "You're incredibly fast and strong, you have super senses, you're incredibly beautiful, you have a super power to show people your thoughts and memories and you were drinking blood."
"B-Bu-But that's crazy!" I said. There's no way vampires are real. They just can't be.
"You think that's crazy, some of these facts doesn't make sense." Dad said flipping through his notes. "I mean you eat and drink human food, your skin's not pale and cold, you don't burn in the sunlight but instead you glow, you sleep in bed, you can see your own reflection, you don't have a problem with crosses, steaks or garlic and you don't need permission to come inside someone's house. I thought of every possibility to all of this and somehow I keep coming back to vampires. It's so weird."
It is weird. I'm a vampire? That just can't be. I mean, let's say for a second that I am a… vampire. People don't just become vampires. You have to get bitten to turn into one and last time I checked, no vampire has ever taken a bite out of me. I mean a few weeks ago, I was completely normal. Well, minus the fact how I'm only six in a teenager's body but my life was just fine then. That's when I thought of something.
"Dad," He looked up when I spoke. "Do you think that my… my birth parents… and my family… are vampires… as well?"
"I think so." Dad said. "And I think that's why those men are after you and your family." He said as he sat down next to me. "Somehow, they must have discovered your family's kind, and I'm taking a wild guess your family wanted to keep their existence a secret. But those men were persistent to show everyone what you and your family are, it what led them to being on their list. And you, … they sound interested in you just as they are determined to expose your family's secret. From what I'm recalling, there's something about you that sets you apart from your family, something different. Not in a bad way I'm sure, maybe you're so unique in the family which is why those men what to experiment you."
"Whatever it is about you, those men will stop at nothing until they have you in their hands. And if they already have your family, then they got everything they need to make a fortune out of you guys." He finished causing me to feel very scared thinking of the fact that these people might have my family already and I'm all they need for their phase of their plan.
"Renesmee, I promised that I won't let anything happen to you and there's no way I'm letting those men have their way with you. Now that we know what you are and what it is they want with you and your family, we'll know what we're up against and what to do."
"What are you gonna do?" I asked.
"I don't know yet," Dad said like he didn't have it planned. "Once Jack and the others get back, we're figure this out but we got this. Okay?" I nodded my head as dad pulled me close for a hug while Scooter came over and rested his head on my lap.
This is so much to take in more than finding out that I was adopted. What else is there? What are dad and his friends gonna do now that we know that I'm actually a vampire? If that really is the case. I just hope dad knows what he's doing.
Cody's POV
I have no idea what I'm doing. I don't even know how to raise a vampire but I'll worry about that another time. I just can't believe that I found out that my daughter is possibly a vampire. I'm still having a hard time believing that even though some of things that has happened to Nessie make sense. Not to mention that it makes sense why those guys are after her and the Cullens. The question is, what are their motives for it when they expose their secret to the world?
There are other questions about the Cullens and Nessie being vampires. Like why from all those visions I've seen from Nessie do the Cullens look like they dress human and aren't worried being active during the day? Where are the fangs? How is it that Nessie is different than her family? How is it possible that vampires exist? So many questions are riding in my head and it's giving me a headache worst than the college years from my professors' insane lectures. Anyway,
At least we got somewhat of a lead about Nessie and knowing what we're up against. Now we just need to know what to do at the moment.
The next day since we found out about what Nessie could be, Jack, Felisha, Gavin and Stella returned from their respective trips and came over to visit me and Nessie.
"Hey, check out my new phone Felisha got me for our anniversary." Jack said showing his new iPhone while Felisha and Stella were putting the kids to sleep in the spare room. "It's got this feature where you talk to Siri without pressing any buttons."
"Really? How does it do that?" Gavin asked.
"You just say uh, hey Siri, what time is it?" Jack said holding up the phone speaking to it without a push of a button.
"The time is 12:42 pm." It said causing Gavin to be impressed while I had a thought.
"So now anyone can control your phone?" I asked then grabbed Jack's hand so that his phone is close enough for me to speak. "Hey Siri, show me pictures of naked grandma butts." I chuckled when I said that.
"Nice try Codester," Jack said pulling his hand away from me. "But it only recognizes my voice." He said with a smirk.
"Oh okay. Cool." I said as Stella and Felisha came out of the room and joined us and then, "Hey Siri, show me pictures of naked grandma butts." I said to the phone in a impression of Jack causing everyone minus Jack to laugh at how I nailed it.
"I sound nothing like that." Jack said.
"Here are some images of naked grandma butts." The phones causing us to burst out laughing while Jack had surprised look on his face until he frowns.
"I hate you guys." He said putting his away.
"So how's Nessie doing?" Stella asked me as I led her and the others outside to the backyard with Scooter right behind us.
"She's fine at moment." I said with Nessie being in her room right now.
"Have you found out anything about her?" Felisha asked.
"Oh I found something alright, but you wouldn't believe it." I said.
"Dude, we still have a hard time believing Nessie is actually six." Jack said.
"Yeah, you can't make it more unbelievable than it already is." Gavin said. "Just tell us."
I looked at Scooter and nodded and my dog walked around the yard until he came back to me with a bark indicating that it's clear as I turned to my friends.
"Okay, here's what I what you guys to do; I want you to call Nessie, but do it as quietly as you can." I told them causing the four of them to give me weird looks.
"Why?" Gavin asked.
"Just do it." I asked in a "Would you just do what I say?" look. The four of them looked at each other and sighed as they did what I told them to do.
"Nessie." I heard them say. At that moment, Nessie came out of the house and joined me and my friends in a split second with her speed.
"You called me?" She asked looking innocent causing my friends to scream at her sudden appearance.
"Holy shit!" Jack cried jumping into Gavin's arms.
"What the hell?!" Gavin cried holding onto Jack.
"Oh my gosh!" Felisha cried hugging Stella who gave a squeak as she fainted into Felisha's arms every time she gets scared or overwhelmed of something totally unexpected.
"Would you guys keep it down?" I asked them casually. "Mr. Wrinkle doesn't like it when he gets woken up from his six hour nap." I said as my friends were gawking at Nessie.
"Nessie, weren't you just – you were – and then – but – how – " Gavin said trying to get the words.
"Weren't you – when did you – where did you – how did you –" Jack said still in Gavin's arms.
"Will you be completing any of those questions?" Nessie teased.
"Alright Ness, that's enough teasing." I said, even though I was enjoying this. "Now go back inside." Nessie did so in high speed with Scooter running after her. After that was done and getting Stella to wake up while Jack got off of Gavin, my friends took a moment until Jack finally spoke.
"Uh, Cody, I'm gonna ask that question again. Just a… simple question. Yeah. Uh," Jack took a breath and had a quick second look like he was about to meditate until he let it out. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!" He asked in a freaked out tone.
"That was Nessie using her vampire speed." I said causing them to have double take looks.
"Uh, I'm sorry, but for a second there, you said that Nessie used her vampire speed, as in… she's a vampire." Gavin said.
"That's exactly it." I said.
"But that's impossible, vampires don't exist!" Felisha said.
"That's what I thought too, but the facts I gathered added up; she's super fast and strong, the thought projection, her beauty and senses, and she was drinking blood. Relax!" I said in a "No need to freak out" tone when everyone had panic looks on their faces. "She didn't kill anyone, just a couple of animals. It seems to have made it better for Nessie according to her."
"But how is she a vampire when she goes out in the day, eats, not have pale and cold skin and all the other things that have qualities of a vampire?!" Felisha asked.
"I don't know, I'm still trying to figure that out, but you know what this means, right?" I asked and that's when Jack had a realization look on his face.
"The Cullens, that's why those men are after them." He said.
"They're vampires too." Gavin said following along as did the girls.
"Exactly." I said. "They know what the Cullens are and want to expose their secret to the public."
"And with Nessie, they wanna see what makes her so special apart from her family." Felisha said earning a nod from me.
"What are we gonna do?" Stella asked.
"We have to do things on our own here." I said. "The Cullens must have a reason for keeping their existence a secret. If we ask for more help such as Jack's police force, things will ride up with questions which would attract attention which will lead those men to us to Nessie."
"That's a lot to do for us since we're, oh, I don't know, human!" Gavin said.
"But this is Nessie we're talking about." Felisha said.
"Plus, I don't think we have to worry about the numbers." Jack said. "There's like what, four of them against the five of us, right Cody?"
"I hope so, but who knows how their numbers have increased." I said.
"Well even if there's now more of them, I can take them down." Jack bragged causing me to roll my eyes at how overconfident Jack can be.
"Either way, it's up to us now to protect Nessie from those guys and keep her safe. You guys with me?" I asked.
"You know it!" Gavin said.
"Let's do it!" Stella said.
"Hell yeah!" Jack said.
"For Nessie." Felisha said.
Good. I hope we can do this. Those men don't know who they're dealing with. Plus they should know that you shouldn't mess with a man who cares about his daughter. If the Cullens are out there, they should know that I care about Nessie just as much as they do.
So there it is. Give me some time for the next chapters as they can be a challenge on how they go. Plus, I know you guys are wondering when will the Cullens or Jacob ever appear. They will. Just bare with me. Anyways, please review and go to my poll in my bio for the next story I will write in the future.
