0Bella's POV:
"Paul!" I shrieked wildly as I saw his wolf form disappear in the bushes surrounding Charlie's house. "Paul please come back! I need you!"
It was only seconds later that Jasper had me wrapped in his arms soothing me gently with his gift.
"Well, I think it's time we told Charlie!" came Emmett's less boisterous than usual joke. I gave him a weak smile- what else could I do my husband had disappeared; my daughter was stolen by my sadistic ex.
"Tell me what. What the hell was that!" My father shouted angrily. He was cycling emotions very quickly and I was sure this was hard on Jasper- despair, anger, hope, rage, confusion, despair, disappointment, self loathing. I didn't need to be an empath to feel all those emotions. I just had to look in my dad's eyes to know that was what was happening. "Did anyone else see the giant wolf in the bush? Sam maybe you should go get Paul out of there." He said warily.
"Daddy that was Paul." I said standing shakily. Emmett and Rose had made their way to help me stand as Jasper was still on the ground attempting to get his own emotions under control lest he start to project unconsciously.
"What do you mean that was Paul!" He looked at me incredulously and I knew he was beginning to wonder if maybe he should have me committed.
Everyone started talking at once much to my annoyance. I whipped my hands up and froze everyone in place. I inhaled and exhaled slowly getting myself under as much control as I could under the circumstances.
I waved one hand towards Sam and Billy who unfroze as I did and then repeated the motion towards Carlisle and then Jasper.
"Bella," Billy chastised rolling over to me. "You can't just freeze people."
I glared at him and he stopped talking quickly "Everyone just needed to shut up. I can't think with everyone talking." I screamed.
"Maybe this is the best way to do it. Sam and Billy can explain the wolves. Jasper can keep him calm and I can explain the vampires." Carlisle said thoughtfully. "Bella I know this doesn't sound ideal and that you think we should be looking for Paul and Molly but if your father knows everything about us then it will allow us to openly use our skills to locate her faster."
Jasper and Sam nodded in agreement and Sam said quietly "Paul will come back Bella."
I nodded and without a word unfroze my father who looked around as if maybe he should be the one committed.
"Bella what's going on?" He asked. I could see no fear only bewilderment on Charlie's features.
"Sam, Billy and Carlisle are going to explain some things to you and then I will tell you what is happening right now. I already know everything dad so please try to stay calm and open minded." I said gently moving to hold his hand and giving it a reassuring squeeze.
"I trust you Bella" He said after a moment's contemplation. I felt the air around me shift as my freeze started to wear off because of my lack of concentration and I focused again.
"Do you remember all the legends Harry and I told you about the tribe while fishing?" Billy asked.
"A little. I remember the one about that third person, third wife I think it was" I almost smiled at that. That was one of my favorite legends about the tribe.
"In that legend Taha Aki is a spirit warrior. He turns into a wolf to protect his family after his last son is killed by a cold one." Sam started "The third wife harms herself to distract the Cold One long enough that her husband can destroy her."
"Guys as much as I appreciate the history lesson what does this have to do with my granddaughter being missing?"
"It has everything to do with it daddy." I said softly "Please just listen to the guys."
"The legends are true," Billy said "The spirit warriors are real."
My dad got a skeptical look on his face and I silently urged Jasper to make my dad more open to the idea.
"Maybe Sam should just show you." Carlisle suggested.
"Maybe that's not a good idea." I said starting to panic that's all I needed- my father to collapse of a heart attack because of the shock.
"Bella it will be fine." Jasper reassured me and sent waves of calm to sooth my frayed nerves.
"Show me what!" Charlie said impatiently.
It took less than two seconds for Sam to phase into his wolf form. He was a gigantic black wolf and I gave him a small smile.
"Bella." My dad started nervously "Did you know about this? That there were werewolves?"
I nodded "Oh dad that's not all. The rest of the legend is true as well. The cold ones are vampires."
"Vampires don't exist Bella." Charlie said insistently.
I raised an eyebrow at him and said carefully "Yes they do. That's what the Cullen's are."
He looked between Jasper, Carlisle and I warily. He glanced at Billy and when Billy nodded slightly Charlie said "You've got to be kidding me. I have been allowing my daughter to associate with things that drink human blood."
"Well actually Charlie," Carlisle started "My family and I are considered to be the vegetarians of our world. We abstain from human blood unlike our counterparts and only drink the blood of animals. That is why our eyes are golden. Our human drinking relatives have ruby red eyes."
Charlie looked at me and I said softly continuing with our explanation "Jasper could you project something pleasant over dad? Maybe it will help him believe."
"You have powers too?" My dad asked incredulously looking at Jasper. Jasper smiled softly and nodded. I could feel the waves of giddiness as Jasper projected them onto Charlie and my dad almost broke into giggles before Jasper retracted his gift.
"Jasper is an empath. He feels the emotions people around him are feeling and he can project them onto those around him. Alice can see the future based on decisions people make." Carlisle explained.
"Bella, you knew all this and never told me?"
I nodded and he continued "And no one has explained why no one else is moving!"
"That would be my fault daddy." I said slowly. "See after a few odd occurrences I kind of became able to control the particles around me. I can freeze time like this or" I glanced at Billy and he nodded knowing what I was asking him to do and he threw his hat into the air where I blew it to smithereens "blow things up like that."
"So in other words I'm just surrounded by supernatural things." He said shaking his head "After we find Molly you guys will have to explain more."
I turned to face him and hugged him tightly "Thank you daddy for your acceptance."
Letting go I unfroze everyone else and we continued trying to figure out where Edward had taken Molly. Seth, Sam, Embry and Jarrod were all in the forest looking for Paul and the other wolves had taken off to search for Molly. We had explained to Charlie that Edward was a vampire and that he had taken Molly we were sure of it.
Alice and Esme finally appeared with the now awake twins and took me back to my home. Jarrod and Rose decided to stay with me and the other imprints while everyone else searched and we were standing in the front yard when Seth appeared with Paul.
He looked horrible. Blood was running down the side of his face from a gash I could see in his hair line. There were two gashes down the right side of his face. He was limping as he pushed away from Seth and I was terrified for him.
"What happened Paul?" We asked in unison.
Paul stormed past us and up the steps of the porch where Rose had been sitting with the boys. Micah pushed away from his Godmother and ran to Paul. "Daddy, where Molly?" He asked with his innocence filled voice.
Paul didn't respond and we all followed him inside, me scooping a now crying Micah into my arms. "Momma why daddy mad at me?"
"He's not mad at you sweetie," I promised my son as I heard my husband banging around upstairs. As Paul started down the stairs Sam stood and growled at him in frustration.
"Paul, where have you been?" He asked concerned about his friend.
"Finding my daughter" Paul answered brusquely and I held the twins against me to keep them from running forward to Paul when he was this angry. I was still hurt by what he'd said earlier and wasn't sure if he wanted me near him if he thought that this whole situation was my fault.
"What happened to your face?" Jarrod questioned and I looked up. I wanted to hear the answer to this as well.
"Fought with Edward and his-" Paul stopped briefly looking at our sons before choosing a nicer word "Carrie, another vampire."
"What you found him? Where's Molly?" I could hear the frantic nature of my voice as my heart raced.
"That's exactly what I'm going to find out." He stated ferociously as he exited the house. We followed again and Noah broke free from me.
"Daddy." Noah called racing towards Paul. Paul stopped and knelt down to Noah's level "Daddy I wied. I wike Mowwy. Bring hew home?" I could hear the sadness in my son's voice.
Paul hugged him tightly and I couldn't hear the exchange between the pair, as he spoke he looked at me. He looked broken and I couldn't help but feel like I was the one to blame for the look in his eyes. I glanced down at my shoes sadly.
I destroyed him. He's been through so much and now this and he's right it's my entire fault. Edward wouldn't have taken Molly if I hadn't been with him. It was all my fault that the love of my life was hurting again.
