Chapter 21: Hiding
Nessie's POV
I was hyperventilating as I had absolutely no idea what what was happening. Or what to do. Everything seemed like it was happening in slow motion. The crowd gathered closer and closer. Almost everybody had their phones out. Mom looked at me in stunned worry. Officer Mike called for an ambulance while officer Dan writhed and screamed on the floor in pain. I quickly realized the half moon shaped mark on his arm was from me. Where I had bitten him.
Suddenly I could see my brothers running toward us. They looked every bit as confused, scared, and shocked as I felt. Suddenly I decided to make a run for it. Then I tripped and fell because I wasn't looking where I was going. Officer Mike caught up to me quickly and put the handcuffs on without saying a word.
"Let her go!" Jr. screamed. His whole body shook with anger. Of course Mike didn't listen to him. Instead he yanked me up with so much force that I was sure I would have bruises. Only the crowd of people recording the whole altercation paid them attention.
"I said let her go!"
When officer Mike ignored him yet again he exploded. Everybody screamed. My brother disappeared and his place stood a large dark grey wolf. The shock caused Anthony to explode and disappear as well. A large white wolf had taken his place. Everyone screamed and started running. Officer Mike released me in shock. I took full advantage to break free. I slammed the handcuffs against the wall. The handcuffs shattered and there was a huge dent in the wall.
Without hesitation I ran over to my mother and we escaped the chaos together. The ambulance got there just as we were running away. This time I did not stop running until I found an old abandoned building. Hopefully nobody would think to look for us here. It took me a full two minutes to catch my breath. Then I collapsed from exhaustion.
"Honey are you alright?" mom asked.
"I think so. I don't understand what just happened mom. I'm scared,"
"Renesmee you are half vampire,"
"I know," I said. "But what does that have to do with what happened?"
"Apparently you are venomous now,"
"Venomous? What does that mean? I'm venomous like a snake?"
"It's vampire venom. Instead of secreting saliva you're secreting vampire venom. That's not-"
"So what does that mean?!" mom flinched when I shouted at her. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to shout. I'm just scared. That's all,"
"It's okay Nessie. Let me explain. Vampire venom is how vampires create more vampires. When a vampire bites a human he or she injects their venom into that human. That starts the human to vampire transformation. It takee about three days for the transformation to be complete. So when you bit that police officer you turned him,"
"I what?!" Now I was seriously freaking out. I created another vampire?!
"Renesmee listen to me. It is extremely important that you never bite any humans if not this will happen every single time. No matter what happens you can never bite a human. Do you understand?"
I shook my head. "Yes mom,"
"Mom?"
"Yes sweetie?"
"What happened to my brothers out there? Are they werewolves? Because at this point I will believe in pretty much anything,"
Mom looked at me without saying anything.
"They're not half vampire like me are they?"
"No," she simply said. "I didn't know this was possible but they have a different father than you do. Their father is a werewolf. Your brothers are descended from werewolves on their father's side. Just like you're descended from vampires on your father's side. It was only a matter of time before your brothers phased as they call it,"
"How is that possible?" I asked.
"I guess if vampires, werewolves, and hybrids are possible anything is possible," she answered.
"Mom those people had their phones out. What does that mean?" I felt fear grip my heart. I didn't know what was going to happen and that scared me.
"Nothing good," she answered after several minutes of silence. "It'll probably be only a matter of hours before their videos are all over the internet,"
"and what what will happen then?" I alsked although I was afraid to know the answer.
"Renesmee you bit and started a vampire transformation and your brothers phased in front of a crowd of people. If that video ends up online, and I have no doubt it will, then-" she couldn't finish. She looked at me in scared silence.
"Then what?" I had to know.
"Remember what I was telling you earlier about the Volturi and vampire laws?"
I nodded my head yes.
"If that video comes to attention of the Volturi we will all be in grave danger," she explained. I felt the blood drain from my face and heart triple in speed.
"Maybe it won't,"
"Renesmee you don't understand. If other vampires see that video online it will be brought to the Volturi's attention,"
"So what are we going to do?!"
"I don't know," she said. "I really don't know. This is out of our hands now,"
I had nevertheless had a panic attack before but I was sure I was about to have one now. The panic was rising and there was nothing I could do about it. The worst part was that I couldn't even talk to my family since they were all in jail. Maybe they would have known what to do.
Then I heard something in the distance. There was a strange scent in the air. I sniffed trying to figure out what it was.
"What's wrong Nessie?" mom asked.
"I don't know. I hear and smell something. Don't you?"
"No. My ears and nose aren't as strong as yours,"
"I'm going to take a peek," I told her.
"Be careful,"
I went outside and looked around for anything abnormal. Then I saw him. "Dad!" I yelled as I ran into his arms.
His cold embrace comforted me. "Oh thank God Nessie. I was so worried when I couldn't find you,"
"Dad I'm so glad you're here," I said. "We're hiding in here right now,"
Dad followed me inside the building to where mom was.
"Bella," dad whispered in shock upon seeing my mother.
"Edward?" mom cried out.
In one swift movement my father had my mother tightly in his arms. Both of them cried as them cried as they held onto each other. A husband and wife reunited for the first time in twelve years.
