Chapter 28

(Renesmee)

The girl that is like me stalks forward until she is ten feet from me. "That's close enough." I snarl. She seemed to be fully grown so she was much stronger than me.

"Hello Renesmee Carlie Cullen. My name is Natalia and Nahuel is my half brother. I mean you no harm and I am simply here to talk to you. If you'd like, I can just stay over here whilst we speak."

Her voice was deeper than mine, but it still had that bell tone to it. I nod at her offer and relax my defensive position a hint. She settles herself onto the ground and motions for me to do the same.

"I am twelve years old, and I stopped aging five years ago. The Volturi killed my father, Joham, shortly after my brother returned from helping your family. My brother is the only sibling of mine that I ever really connected with. I hated my father for what he did to my mother. I hated the thought of killing people. Nahuel told me that my mother was very compassionate to others and would never harm a fly. He told me of your animal diet and I only recently started it. The blood still tempts me sometimes, but I am in control, I promise I will not harm anyone. After my father was killed and the Volturi left me alive, I wandered for months. I finally ran into a vampire with golden eyes who had a half-breed mate. They both fed on animals and despised the thought of killing. They took me in and became a father to all of my siblings. I have six sisters and four brothers. We all are on the animal diet now. I sort of just wanted to come find you so I knew if all of our kind killed our mothers. I know you didn't, but I wanted to know if you knew how not to hurt your mother."

I sit for a moment soaking in her huge speech. I open my mouth, only to close it immediately after, not knowing where to start.

She shoots me an apologetic look. "I'm so sorry. I tend to talk a lot." A giggle bursts from my lips and we laugh together. I moved a little closer until only five foot of grass separated us.

"I remember being in my mom's womb, but the memories are fuzzy. I remember trying not to stretch so I wouldn't hurt her. Sometimes I just couldn't help it and I hurt her, but I think even normal babies hurt their moms. And it helped at birth because I'm guessing that Joham didn't care about your mom's health. My mom had people who cared about her surrounding her." I say in answer to her question. She nods slowly, deep in thought. We talk about things for about an hour. Just things that she's experienced in life. I tell her about my parents leaving and my conflicted emotions about that.

"Nahuel told me about how your father and family wanted to kill you. I'm glad they didn't." She says with a shy smile. I cringe slightly, but smile back.

"I have a question about that. How can you be so close with that Indian man, Jacob? He wanted to kill you too, right?" She says. I look at her in confusion.

"You must have the wrong information. My Jacob would never want to hurt me." I argue.

She shakes her head sadly and says, "But he did, Renesmee. Nahuel was on the phone with me when your parents and him were discussing that they weren't going to tell you that Edward and Jacob wanted to kill you. I have it on saved phone calls if you want proof." She takes it out and shows me.

I shake my head feverously. "No, he wouldn't. Everyone else hated me! Why him? He was my everything; the only person I was sure I could trust. WHY!" I shout.

Even Jacob didn't want me. Everyone I loved had betrayed me in unforgivable ways. And they had a good reason. I was a monster. Monsters don't deserve love. They aren't capable of being loved. That's why Daddy and Mommy left. No one would ever love me. Except my own kind. They would understand me; they would love me.

I look at Natalia with tears in my eyes and my voice shaking. "Can I come live with you? I don't care where it is, only that it's far away."

She nods in sympathy and walks over to me. She pulls me up and wraps me in a hug. She isn't very tall; a bit under average. She was my kind; she would at least accept me.

(A/N so that went fast. And, I haven't been getting reviews, so if you want the next chapter then I need at least two reviews. Please, please review! I will be starting another fan fiction on twilight soon. It will not be part of this series, or have anything to do with it. And, I am not a Bella Edward hater. They are my favourite couple besides Alice and Jasper.)
