Chapter 8: Makes No Sense at All

Nessie's POV

If it was possible to die of shock I was certain that I would have died right then and there. Nothing could have prepared me for coming face to face with this man who looked exactly like my brothers and nothing like me.

Unlike Edward this guy only gave me one look before looking away. Instead focusing mainly on my brothers. I mean I didn't blame him. If I found two kids that looked exactly like me I'd be staring as well.

"Are these them?"

"Yes son. These are your kids. Are you Renesmee?"

I looked up when I realized the last question was for me. "Yes I am," I simply answered.

"I'm Billy Black. I'm your grandfather,"

No. I wanted to say. This couldn't be true. Not when Carlisle confirmed that I was indeed related to them. I remembered clearly what he said. Word for word.

I was laying there in bed when the door opened. A very shocked looking Carlisle was standing in the doorway.

"Well what are the results?" I asked although I already knew what the answer was.

"You are part of this family. I don't know how but-"

"Carlisle you know that's impossible," Edward interrupted.

"Son it's true. I've analyzed her blood. She has both human DNA and-"he stopped for a brief second before continuing. "Edward we need to talk privately,"

It was a very odd conversation. Why mention that my DNA was human? Wasn't that obvious? The only thing that I was certain of was that I had found my family. Or I was certain until just now.

I shook my head. There was something wrong here. It was biologically impossible to have two fathers. Genetically you had one mother and one father. That was that. So what exactly was going on here?

My head started to hurt so I went to go lay down. It took awhile before I was able to drown out the thoughts that were bouncing around my head but eventually sleep overcame me. I didn't wake up until sometime the next morning.

I shuddered when I thought about the Cullens. Carlisle had told me in no uncertain terms that I was to stay put while they went out to discuss something. Of course being me I did exactly the opposite. My brothers and I were used to being on our own. Doing whatever we wanted whenever we wanted without adults telling us what to do. Even the foster family that had taken us in barely had time to keep up with all of us.

So it was extremely rare for an adult to give us a direct instruction. It was even mkre rare that we suffered consequences for failing to follow instructions. That certainly was nkt going to change now.

After eating the breakfast that Billy made. I refused to acknowledge that he was my grandfather because it just didn't feel right. I left. I told everyone I was goinh to the beach and that was true.

I needed to get away from everything for awhile to clear my mind. There was one activity that would gurantee to clear my mind. I just hoped that there was a rental shop. I almost screamed in delight when I saw that there was one right on the beach. I paid the surfboard rental fee and went to the restroom to change.

It felt good to be out here in the water again. It was a lot lonelier here than the beaches on Oahu. There was no shortage of waves though and soon I was riding one. Then another. Then another.

I heard screaming and when I looked I saw someone jump from the cliff into the water. I didn't even think as I jumped off the board and swam as fast as I could toward the jumper. As I got closer I saw that it was a boy about my age. A really cute boy at that. He appeared to be smiling. Laughing even.

"Hey are you crazy?!"

The boy looked startled when he saw me.

"Who are you?"

"Does it matter? Are you crazy? Or suicidal? You could've-"

"Oh come on. First of all I'm not crazy or suicidal. Second of all I was cliff jumping. You know for recreation? Sure my parents would freak out if they knew what I was doing but I don't want to die,"

"Oh," I said feeling stupid.

"But for the record I wouldn't mind being saved by someone as beautiful as you,"

I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks.

"So are you new here?"

"Yes how'd you know?"

"Because you're not Quileute. All of our families know each other here. We have a long history here. Strangers like you are spotted immediately. I also would've recognized your face at school if I'd seen you. My name is Luke by the way. Luke Uley,"

"Oh I'm Renesmee. Renesmee Carlie Swan-Cullen,"

"Geeze that's a mouthful,"

"That's why most people call me Nessie,"

"Wait did you say your last name was Cullen?" Luke asked.

"Yes why?"

"Then what are you doing here?"

"I don't understand," I was getting confused all over again.

"Ah well," he just shrugged his shoulders. "It's all just stupid superstitious legends. Doesn't really matter I guess,"

"Can you tell me?"

"Technically I'm not supposed to say anything," he lamented.

"But if it's all just superstitious legends why not? I want to know,"

"Yeah well that's true. The Cullen family are supposedly vampires. I'm supposedly descended from werewolves. Our kind are natural enemies. But when my ancestors caught them hunting on our land they claimed to be different from other vampires. So we made a treaty with them. As long as they stayed off Quileute lands we wouldn't expose them for what they really were to the pale faces,"

"Wow that's something,"

"Yeah it's weird," he laughed. "What's even more crazy is that my parents actually believe it. My dad says that he was the alpha of the last pack. So I'd say he's the crazy one not me,"

"Alpha?"

"Means he lead the last wolf pack," Luke rolled his eyes.

I laughed. I liked this boy. He was cute and funny.

"So where are you from?:

"I am from Hawaii,"

"You're a little far from home, aren't you?"

"Yeah you cam say that," "But I really don't want to talk about it,"

We played together in the water for awhile longer. As the sun started risinv higher in the sky I decided that I should try to find my way back to the Cullens. It had beem over a day since I'd left.

"I better go,"

"Why?"

"My family is probably looking for me,"

"Well I hope that I'll see you again soon,"

"Yeah I hope so to," I smiled.

It didn't take me long to find the path I had taken to the reservation yesterday. I wasn't looking where I was going when I suddenly walked into an ice cold person. When I looked up I saw Edward and Carlisle. Both looking angry with their arms folded across their chests.
