CHAPTER TWELVE

FINDING THE HUMAN RESPONSIBLE

"Changing Dimensions" Back to the Earth Dimension.


The next morning dad and I were sitting at the table in the kitchen drinking coffee and I remembered what I needed to talk to him about.

"Dad…I need to ask you something," I told him.

"What's that son?" he asked.

"While I was with the Swan's last night, I glanced into Bella's eyes and I felt a pull, could that be only because she looks just like Lizzy or is it something else?" I asked. Dad looked at me surprised.

"Son…your soul mate has died, the only way for you too imprint again is if Bella is your soul mates twin and only then it's because their d.n.a. is the same. Billy told him. "And you felt the pull with Bella?" he asked.

"Well it was nothing like Lizzy, I mean when I imprinted on her the whole world moved for me, but when I looked at Bella I felt something I don't know what it was but there was a slight pull towards her, I couldn't take my eyes off of her, I even watched her as she roamed around the house while checking it out, I just assumed it was because she looks so much like Lizzy," I told him, looking down into my cup.

"And Charlie says he doesn't know Lizzy?" he asked.

"That's what he claims," I told him. Shrugging my shoulders.

"Did Lizzy ever say what her mother's name was? It just seems that we have two women who look the same with the same last name but they say they don't know her," he said. I tried to think if Lizzy mentioned her mother to me, then remembered she had, her name was Rain or Rene or Renee…

"That's it Renee, she said her mom's name was Renee Swan," I told him.

"I suggest you asked Charlie or Bella what Bella's mom's name was, you might find out they have more in common than just looks, and who knows maybe this Renee, hid one of the twins from Charlie, maybe he didn't know anything about her from the start," he said. "And Jake, if Lizzy is Bella's twin, you could very well have imprinted on her, you must remember you're the Alpha now, when you imprinted on Lizzy you weren't, there is a lot of difference in imprinting when you're an Alpha," he told me.

I looked at Billy hoping he was wrong about the hiding of one of the twins, that would be horrible to find out that you had another daughter only to find out she was dead for both Charlie and Bella, she had a sister that she didn't know she had, and as far as the imprinting goes, I'll just have to wait and see how it goes, I sighed, picked up my cup and placed it in the sink and headed out of the house to go check on the Swan's.

I walked out of the house and down to the little blue house, I stood in front of it trying to figure out how to break the news to them if it turned out that Lizzy was Bella's twin, but Bella is a seer…Wouldn't Lizzy have some sort of visions as a seer as well, she never showed any signs of having that sort of power… as I stood there thinking the front door opened and Bella stuck her head out.

"Good morning Jacob," she said with a beautiful smile.

"Good morning Bella," I said as I walked up to the door.

"Were you coming in or did you just want to stand out here and stare at the house," she said with a chuckle.

"Oh…yeah, I was coming in," I told her smiling and feeling a little embarrassed.

"Can I get you some coffee or tea maybe?" she asked.

"No, no, I'm fine, how was your first night in your new home?" I asked.

"Great actually, already feel right at home," she said, as I took a seat on the sofa and Bella joined me.

"Where's Charlie?" I asked, looking around to see if I seen him anywhere.

"He's in his room getting dressed we have a meeting with Tatika this morning," she told me.

"I see, maybe I'll take you over there, I know the way it will be better than you hunting for his house it's a little out of the way and besides I want to find out what's going on," I told her. She smiled and lowered her head as her cheeks blushed a pale pink. "Would you mind if I sit in on the meeting? I mean, I'm not trying to butt into your business, it's just I'm chief and I need to know what's going on here on the reservation, even if I don't go with you I will learn what went on anyway," I told her with a chuckle.

"No…I don't mind," she said as Charlie walked out into the living room.

"Good morning chief," Charlie said.

"Good morning Charlie, how did you sleep?" I asked as he sat down in the chair across from me and Bella got up and brought him a cup of coffee.

"Thank you sweetheart," Charlie told Bella as she took her seat once again.

"Charlie…would you mind if I asked you a question?" I asked, as Charlie looked up at me after blowing into his cup of coffee cooling it off.

"No…not at all, what can I do for you Jacob?" he asked.

"Well…it's not what you can do for me…but I need to ask you a somewhat personal question," I told him.

"Shoot," he said.

"Bella's mom…What was her name?" I asked as Charlie raised his eye brows and looked over at Bella who shrugged her shoulders.

"It was Renee, Renee Dwyer Swan," he said, I looked at him with my mouth hanging open, I don't know how long I sat there staring at him, before I said anything.

"Jake…are you alright?" Bella asked. I turned to her with the sound of her voice, then back to Charlie.

C... Charlie…umm…I don't know how to tell you this without j... just telling you o…out right I... I guess," I told him.

"Jacob, what are you talking about…just tell me son," he said.

"Okay…um…Bella had a twin, and Bella's twin was Lizzy, her mother's name was Renee, her mother died when she was born, and her maternal grandparents raised her until their deaths almost two years ago, their names were John and Velma Dwyer," I told him. Charlie sat there with his mouth hanging open and his eyebrows wrinkle. I turned to look at Bella who sat there with tears in her eyes and my heart melted, I reached over to her and put my hand on hers as she still sat there staring at me as one lone tear streaked down her cheek.

"I'm sorry," is all I could think of to say to her.


"Changing Dimensions" Back to Ertha

Lizzy and I drove up at the Fork police station and went in and walked up to the front desk where a woman in a uniform greeted us.

"Can I help you?" she asked. looking me and Lizzy over.

"Yeah… we're here to see Harry Clearwater," I told her, she looked at us for a minute and told us to take a seat as she pointed behind us at 6 plastic blue chairs. I nodded my head and grabbed Lizzy's hand and led her with me to sit in the hard chairs.

A few minutes later Harry came out and looked around before seeing us, he smiled and waved for us to come with him, we got up and followed him to his office.

"Jacob…Elizabeth…" Harry said greeting us and then looked at Lizzy, "well Lizzy, how are you feeling? The last time I seen you, you were at the hospital after you passed out at the festival," he said.

"Fine Harry, thank you," she said.

"Harry that's what we're here to talk to you about," I told him.

"Okay…what about it?" Harry asked.

"Well, after everything was over we found out that someone slipped a certain kind of herb into Lizzy's drink," I told him, he looked at us concerned.

Harry, knew a little bit about herbs, he was from the reservation, and grew up with Billy, he knew that Billy was an herbalist and trusted him with the knowledge of any herb and what it was used for.

"Okay, I'm listening," he said, he sat back and listened to everything we had to say, Lizzy told him about the dimension that was just like ours and the same people that was in that dimension, but what Lizzy didn't know is what Billy told me this morning about what would have happened to Lizzy if the other Billy hadn't caught on and helped her to get home, as I was telling Harry, Lizzy listened with her mouth hanging open.

Billy told me this morning that if the other Billy hadn't caught on to what had happened to her and didn't help her, that the body couldn't hang on for more than two weeks, if things weren't fixed within that time, her body would have broken down and sooner than later would have died, both bodies would have died.

Harry looked over at Lizzy and shook his head, "So do you have any ideas who would have done this, or who had the knowledge to do this?" he asked me. I shook my head as I lowered my head and thought for a minute. Then it dawned on me, I looked up at Harry.

"During the festival, did you by any chance have cameras up to survey the area?" I asked. Harry looked at me and smiled.

"Yes, yes, we did, that was too big of an area for us to cover so we put up cameras to watch for pick-pockets and such," he said. "Wait here he said as he left and Lizzy and I sat there waiting.

"Jake?"

"Yeah."

"When did you find out that I couldn't stay there very long without it killing me?" she asked.

"This morning, Billy told me," I told her.

"Why didn't you tell me?" she asked.

"I did just a few minutes ago."

"Jake, you know what I'm talking about," she said.

"I really didn't have time to tell you Lizzy, I mean we left right after I talked to Billy…I would have told you, it's just that we came here right after. Look… if I didn't want you to know I would have left your sexy ass out in the waiting room and met with Harry alone.

"Huhu," she said, as I chuckled at her.

"I would have I swear," I told her as the door opened once more and Harry came in carrying a box full of video tapes and sat down at the table across from us.

"Okay…these are the tapes from that day," he said as he weeded through them and pulled out the ones for the camera at the concession stands.

"Now what time were you at the concession stand?" he asked.

"Um…probably around 1 o'clock," I told him as I looked at Lizzy for conformation and she nodded her head.

Harry found the tape that was labeled with the time written on it, it read 12p.m.-4p.m. and slid it in the player and fast forwarded it until Lizzy and I came into the area and slowed it down to play in real time. We watched as we walked to the stand and ordered out drinks, and then we see ourselves walk over and sat at the picnic table all the way up until Lizzy passed out, and I squeezed my eyes together in remembering that day.

"Wait, Harry, can you rewind that tape to when we ordered the drinks?" I asked.

"Sure," he said doing as I asked.

"Stop there," Harry froze the tape.

"Can you zoom into that stand?" I asked.

"Sure," he zoomed into the stand and froze it. We both looked at the booth.

"What are we looking for?" Harry asked.

"Can you run it in slow motion up close?" I asked.

"Sure," he said doing as I asked.

"Right there! Stop!" I yelled. "What's that in his hand?" I asked, Harry zoomed in more and it was a leaf form that the man dropped into one of our cups, his body blocked it for a moment and then he leaned to the other side and fished out the leaf, as he looked around to make sure no one was looking and pitched it in the trash.

"Who is that?" Harry asked, "Wait isn't that the Newton boy?" he continued. I looked closer at the video.

"Yeah, that's exactly who it is…Why would he?" I stopped and started to think.

"Wait…I know that guy," Lizzy said, I looked at her, wondering how she would know him when she hadn't been in town long enough to get to know anyone except those she met on the reservation. She looked over at me.

"I met him at the store one day, he was hitting on me, I told him I had a boyfriend, he asked who I was seeing that maybe he knew him, and I told him your name, but I think he got really mad, because he huffed and walked off, I didn't think anything of it so I left and went home," she told me. I looked over to Harry.

"Let's find out," Harry said as he pushed a button and the tape pushed its way out of the machine and Harry grabbed it. We left the room and Harry stopped and asked one of the other officers to follow us, as we left the station and climbed into his cruiser. We headed for the Newton's hardware store with the other officer following close behind us. We pulled up in front of the hardware store and got out, Harry told the other officer to wait out in the parking lot and he would call him if he needed him. We walked into the store and seen Mike standing behind the desk at the other side of the large room, when he seen us walking towards him you could tell he was starting to get nervous.
