Chapter 13: Home Again

Nessie's POV

My father was on a rampage. I chased after him. Hoping that I could stop him from murdering Jacob. Even if Jacob did purposely put those peanuts in my ice cream to kill me I didn't want my father to become a murderer because of him. Even though I coulf not stop him luckily the rest of my family was able to.

Once my father calmed down enough he was able to explain exactly what had happened. Before I knew it the rest of my family was just as furious as he was. I overheard pieces of their conversation.

"We have to get Nessie as far away from Jacob as possible," Carlisle said.

"What about her brothers? We can't just leave them behind with Jacob even if he really is their father," Esme said.

"You're right. Those kids aren't safe either,"

I don't know how they did it but when I woke up the next morning Anthony and Jacob Jr were there. I was shocked beyond all belief. So shocked that I couldn't find words at first so I stayed silent.

"What are you doing here?!"

"We came looking for you here last night," Jr. said. "Then we decided to stay since the Cullens told us we were going back to see mom today,"

Phew. I was relieved that it had been so easy to get my brothers away from their so-called 'father'.

"Does Jacob know?"

"Yes he knows. Anthony went back this morning to let him know what was going on and that we were going back to Hawaii today. He's totally cool with it,"

Things were going way smoother than I had imagined. I was honestly surprised. I was expecting there to be a big fight between my family and Jacob. I was glad there was not. I got dressed and ate breakfast quickly. When we got to the airport I was surprised to discover that my family had their own private jet. Seriously how rich were these people?!

My dad just laughed when he saw the expression on my face. "Come on Nessie," he said. "After you,"

"Are you nervous about seeing mom again?" I asked him a little while later.

"No," he replied. "Knowing that I'm going to see your mother again after 12 years...no words can come close to accurately describing the feeling,"

"Then what's wrong?" he looked sad so I had to ask.

"I'm not looking forward to seeing your mother in a coma. When I envisioned our reunion I imagined it much differently,"

"I wasn't part of that imagination was I?"

He ruffled my hair. "No kid you weren't. You are a complete and very happy surprise. I was told that I could never have kids so you're presence here never fails to astound me. I'm not sure I will ever get used to the idea,"

"Oh dad,'

"and I'm definitely not sure I'll get used to someone calling me dad," he said. "But I like it. I only wish that I was there from the very beginning,"

"I'm sorry," I wasn't sure why I was apologizing. I knew it was not my fault but I still felt the need to say something.

"It's not your fault Nessie. You're not to blame for any of this mess,"

I took a deep breath. This certainly was a mess. One that I'm not certain would ever be cleaned up. I grabbed a pair of earbuds and spent the next few hours watching movies. My father suddenly tapped my shoulder to get my attention. "We're about to land,"

I took out my earbuds and looked out the window. I watched as the plain started it's descent into Honolulu. A smile crept across my face as the island I called home got closer and close. It was even more beautiful when the sun was setting.

At last I was home again. I thought to myself when the airplane finally touched down. It took every ounce of strength that I had to resist the urge to run out of the airplane into the airport.

"Easy their tiger," dad smiled as he placed a hand on my shoulder. The plan was to get our stuff, rent two different cars to fit everyone, and immediately head to the hospital where my mother was. We still had a few hours left of visiting hours. My brothers and I got something to eat while we were waiting for tbe rental car.

Once we got the rentals I gave Carlisle the address to the hospital where my mother was. The hospital was a good twenty minute drive from the airport.

The hospital staff were surprised to see me and my brothers again. "We're here to see my mother Isabella Swan,"

"Nessie who are these people?"

"We're with her," Carlisle answered. "I'm Carlisle Cullen and this is my family,"

"Okay," the lady took a deep breath. "Just give me a few minutes,"

My dad looked worried all of a sudden. The lady left for a few minutes like she had said. She looked worried when she came back.

"Can my brothers and I see our mother now? That's all we want,"

"Actually can you kids come with me for just a second? There is something that I need to tell you,"

Fear flooded through my body from head to toe. Was my mother dead? Is that what this is all about?

"What's going-"

"Are you kids okay? Did they hurt you in anway?"

"What are you talking about-"

"It's okay you don't have to lie. The police are already on their way and so are your social workers-"

"What are you talking about?!"

"Don't worry kids you have a guardian angel back in Washington that reported-"

Just then we heard a loud noise upfront followed by a man shouting "Are you Mr. and Mrs. Cullen?"

"Yes,"

"You're both under arrest on three counts of federal kidnapping. You have the right to remain silent-"

I couldn't hear another word as I slowly went into shock at the realization of what was happening.
