"Now Garrett I'll tell you my version of events that went on while the family disappeared." Bella started. "My 18th birthday party was where it all started to go wrong for me. But to understand everything I have to start at the beginning.

My mother Renee had just gotten married to a minor league baseball player trying to make the pros. Phil that's my stepfather travelled around the country while Renee stayed at home with me. She thought that she should stay with me while he was travelling but she was really sad everytime he left so one day I had the idea to go to my father Charlie's house and finish my school education.

I moved to Forks not long after that and started school shortly after I moved there. I remember that first day very well it was there I met Edward, Jasper and the rest of the family. Yeah that rumour was true he did go to school but you'll never find his school records. That's his story to tell.

The first day of school was pretty boring actually meeting new people and have three guys after all before lunch. (Garrett snickers hearing this.) Laugh it up while you can buddy. Lunchtime rolls around and that was when I meet the Cullens'. Emmett and Rosalie came in first, he looks just like a bear but he's like a teddy when you get to know him, Rosalie or Rose as she likes to be called is like a real live Barbie doll without the fake boobs. Next came Alice and Jasper, it was so funny watching them come in he looked as if he was in pain which he probably was and she was dancing her way across the room. Last but not least came Edward I thought he was a god at that stage. He was the only 'single' one in the family according to the gossip queen Jessica. He had turned her down more times than he could count and she wouldn't take no for an answer.

We had Biology together straight after lunch. He was trying not to kill me that whole period. I later found out that he had thought about not only killing me but everyone else in the classroom.

He took off for 'Alaska' for two weeks after that. At least that is what the story was going around at the time. What he was really doing was getting rid of people that had harmed me before I come to Forks. That I'm not going to go into on the plane. They all died at Edward's teeth anyway let me put it that way.

Not long after that he saved me from getting squished by a van one of my admirer's was driving. I'll get to that later. Jasper and Rose weren't happy that he saved me from dying but he told them it was either save me from getting hit by the van or he would kill me when my blood was spilled so he took the lesser of two evils. This I learn at a later time.

I knew that there was something not quite right with him and his family at that time and I was determined to find out what it was at any cost. So I had a friend down at the LaPush reservation tells me in not so many words. He was one of my many admirers. He was killed in the newborn fight. I miss him so much he was good for me at a stage when I had no one. But as I said that comes later.

One night after Edward had missed a few days of school because of the sun I went to Port Angeles with Angela and Jessica. Angela you will meet once we get back with the others. I was almost gang raped after going to find a bookstore and ended up getting lost on my way back to meet the girls. Edward found me after they had horded me into a tight spot. He then took me back to the restaurant where my friends were and when he was driving me home he confirmed that he was a vampire. Not long after that we started dating. Not long after that he showed me what he looked like in the sunlight. He showed off a bit as well.

He took me to his house the weekend after that and I met his family properly. Well they were his family then they aren't now but that another story. The only one I had never seen around town was his mother Esme. She cooked me dinner so that they had something to do in the kitchen because before that day they had never used it.

Edward took me home later that day and my friend from the Res and his father were waiting for us when we got back there. They had come to warn my dad that I was hanging around vampires. Billy that was my friend's fathers name he was also my dad's best friend tried to warn me against going out with Edward but I didn't listen why should I when I later learnt I'm meant to be part of the supernatural world.

Later that afternoon Edward came back around to my house because we were going to be playing baseball well I was just going to watch while they played. It was during that game that James' coven turned up. Words were exchanged I can't remember what was said now but I remember that James caught my scent and he wanted me for himself. So I concocted a plan to get me out of Forks without putting my father or friends in danger.

Jasper and Alice took me down to Phoenix at this time they were still acting like a couple. The time I found out they were was straight after the newborn fight but that's later. So Jasper drives us down to Phoenix and we stay in a hotel close to the airport in case we have to take off at a moment's notice. James called me pretending to be my mother so that Alice would get off my back. He told me he was going to kill her if I didn't come alone to where he was hiding. He was at my old ballet studio.

You already know what happened there so I'm not going to repeat it. All I know from that day is that Emmett, Alice and Jasper killed James. I woke up three days later and the cover story was that I fell out of a window going to the hotel that Edward, Alice and their father Carlisle were staying at. It was totally believable that I fell out of the window. Jasper and Emmett set that up using my blood and Alice played me falling out the window.

Weeks went by and Prom happened. Now I had no idea that Edward was taking me to Prom at the time and I just thought that he was taking me somewhere nice. I didn't find out that he was taking me to Prom until we got a phone call from my dad that Tyler the kid that almost hit me with his van showed up at my door wanting to take me to the Prom. I remember when he asked me to the girl's choice dance he said that he was going to take me to Prom. I later learned from Edward that Tyler thought that taking me to Prom would have made up for almost killing me with his van even though it was clear as day that I was with Edward.

We had no trouble from anything over the summer break from school. The only two people that I really didn't know too well were still Rose and Jasper. Rose because she was jealous of me because I was human and Jasper because he thought that he was going to kill me. If he had just gotten use to my blood over the summer then he wouldn't have tried to take a bite out of me on my birthday.

Once school started back up again Edward and I had the same classes but that didn't last long. My 18th birthday Alice decided that I was going to have a party even if I was dead set against it but you could never bet against Alice it was like the family motto.

Everyone was having a good time except Jasper and I. I could tell he was having a hard time with my emotions and I tried my best to shield him but I couldn't do it then as I can now. Anyway I was opening a present and I got a paper cut. One tiny bit of blood made Edward over react when Jasper was coming over to restrain Edward but everyone thought that he was coming to get me so Edward over reacts and throws me against the wall into a table of glass plates I have no idea why they were out at all.

To make a long story short for this next part because I don't like reliving it all the time. I will tell you the basics. Three days after my birthday Edward took me into the woods and broke up with me. The things he said to me were cruel and it took me a while to get over it but I never really did.

I was in darkness for a week I completely shut down. After a week my Charlie tried to send me to Renee's at the time she lived in Florida I didn't want to move to where vampires couldn't go so I threw a massive fit and shouted at my parents and they left me alone after that.

Four months after he left me I came out of it a little at that time I had no one at school who would talk to me only Angela. Who I later found out knew all about vampires.

I found some bikes one day when I was out driving around not long after I 'woke up' so to speak. My friend Jacob helped to fix them up. Well he fixed them while I just hung around him even his two friends pitched in for a while.

I was a bit of a daredevil while the family disappeared, they had spread the rumour that they were moving to LA. I knew that was a lie when I heard it. Back to the daredevil stuff I would do anything dangerous just to hear Edward's voice in my head. Hanging around the shape shifters he didn't like. Mike Newtown he didn't like that, gave me a headache half the time because he was really growly when he was around me. It didn't help that I worked in his parent's store so I was around him nearly every day.

I started to get really hurt while riding so Jacob suggested that we slow down on the bike riding. Did I mention they were dirt bikes, Charlie always told me that they were dangerous and reckless just the things that I was looking forward to doing.

Valentine's weekend comes round and Mike invited a group of us to go to the movies. I told him that I would go if I invited some of my LaPush friends. By the time it come round to use actually going to the movies it was only three of us Mike, Jacob and me. The voice didn't like that at all. Everyone who said they were going couldn't because they were all sick with a twenty four hour bug that was going around at the time.

Halfway through the movie Mike ended up getting sick. So Jacob and I took him home. Once we got Mike home I noticed that Jacob was starting to get really hot so I told him to get home before he got really bad and he had to call me when he got home so I could make sure he got home alright. He never called me. During the night I got sick as well. I thought that Jacob had caught whatever it was as well but after a week of not returning my calls and Billy not answering my questions. What I didn't know at the time was that he was a shape shifter. After I got into a fight with Jacob one day when I went down to see him he saw me later that night and tried to get me to guess what he was but I couldn't think it was really late at night and I was really tired I was barely sleeping as it was because any sleep I did have was interrupted by nightmares all of the same thing Edward's words as he left me in the woods the day he left me. That night I had a dream and I figured out that he was a shape shifter.

This was after they had already saved me from Laurent who was trying to kill me in the meadow. He said that he would kill me quicker than Victoria would anyway she wanted to kill me because she thought that Edward killed James. The shape shifters stopped him from killing me.

A week later was when Jacob came to my room and made me guess. I went to his house the next day and told him that I didn't care that he was a shape shifter just as long as he was always my friend. We had a misunderstanding when I believed that he was killing people around Forks and LaPush but it was actually Victoria doing it. The wolves were having a hard time figuring out what she wanted but when I told them that she was after me they starting patrolling around my house.

One day I was waiting at First Beach for Jacob to get up for the day so that we could do something but of course I caught sight of the cliffs that I had seen the boys jump off one day when Jacob and I were riding our bikes. So I wanted to try out cliff diving little did I know that would have caused some very bad coincidences leading me to meet the Volturi and living to tell the tale.

Alice had seen me jump off the cliff and hadn't seen me come back up so she informed Rose who then told Edward that I had killed myself. Long story short Alice come to Forks to help Charlie cope with my 'death' and Edward went to the Volturi when he thought I was dead and after a misunderstanding on the phone with Jacob. Alice and I went to Italy and saved him.

Everything was back to normal after that the Cullens' came back to Forks and Edward and Jacob never got on. Whenever I wanted to go see Jacob, Edward stopped me.

Once we found a vampire in my room Edward and Jacob thought it be best if they work together to get rid out it. What we didn't know at the time was that Riley the vampire that broke into my house to get my scent was working for Victoria. They have both been killed.

They worked together to get rid of the problem of Victoria and her newborn army. Edward, Jacob and Seth were killed during the fight. Victoria killed Edward. Jacob was killed by a newborn. Seth was killed by Alice. Victoria was killed by Jasper. The only reason I knew about Riley was because Edward told me when they got to the place we were hiding far from the battle that was going on.

After Edward was killed I was so out of it that I didn't even know that Alice and Jasper were trying to help me. I made it very hard for him to control me but then again who wouldn't have just seen someone get killed in front of them. Some of the Volturi came down to the battlefield not long after we got back down there. It was Jane, Alec, Felix and Demetri before you ask. They were going to take Edward back to Volterra if I wasn't changed but since he was dead they couldn't take him. Jasper took me away from them then. We've been on the run for a long time. The Major came out a few times as well I really don't like him.

Any questions so far?"

"Wow all that in just that short amount of time." Garrett said awed.

"Yes just that short amount of time all that happened. Now as for when we found Peter and Charlotte well we had a few newborn attacks a few newborns stupid enough to go after the Major. Alice sent her mate after me at one stage but Maria got to him before he got to me. We also met Randall, Mary and Alistair. A day before we moved out of where we were Angela and Ben caught up to us, they are friends from school. Angela is a witch; Ben is human as far as I know. Just before we made it to our new home we had three nomads catch up to us. Rachael was taken care of while Richard and Andrew stayed with us." Bella said.

"Ladies and Gentleman we will soon be landing…" The stewardess said. I really wasn't paying attention.

"I'll tell you some more next flight. Come on Jasper wake up." Bella said.

I felt my body waking up so to speak. It felt really weird. I started stretching because that's what I've seen other people do when they wake up.

"Our next flight leaves soon will you two be okay for another few hours?" Bella asked us.

"Bella you don't have to worry as long as you keep me under like that I don't feel anything." I said.

"Good I didn't think it would work." Bella said.

"I'm fine for a few more days Bella." Garrett said.

"Bella what I meant is I didn't even feel the couple joining the mile high club." I said.

"Good it definitely worked then." Bella said. "That's good we might need to use my shield more often than if you can't feel anything."

"I want to be able to use it every now and then I mean I have had my ability for near two hundred years." I said trying very hard not to pout.

"Jasper are you going to pout on me?" Bella said giggling.

"No I'm not going to pout girly." I said.

"Come on then we have to go over the other side to get our next plane. Hey Jasper I've been meaning to ask did you hear everything that I told Garrett on the plane before?" Bella said.

"Yeah I did. I was just remembering how Edward told you that you can't ride on your bike with Jacob anymore then he goes out and buys you one but he gave it to me when I asked who it was for." I said.

"I always wondered who's bike that was in the garage." Bella said. "What happened to it?"

"It's now in a storage place in Texas where I sent all my stuff about three days before the fight." I answered.

"You two stay here I'm going to get us some coffee's for us." Bella said.

"How will she know what kind of coffee to get for us Jasper?" Garrett asked.

"She's sort of a mind reader." I answered. "She has a lot of abilities that even I don't know about so I'm as in the dark as you are about them. All I know is she has every single Volturi power from when she went there. She has my power, Alice's sight and Edward's mind reading. She also has Peter's power. She is also a shield. From Victoria she got the power of evasion. Double sided bathrooms are my downfall." I said the last bit shaking my head.

"Double sided bathrooms?" Garrett asked intrigued.

"How do you think she was able to get away from me in Phoenix? She didn't want Alice to get something to eat so she took me instead. She found the one bathroom in the place that had two doors on either side of the bathroom and went out the other side. She then found the quickest way to get out of the airport and got to where James was holding her mother but her mother was actually in Florida with her step dad. She didn't bother checking with Alice to see where her mum was." I answered.

"So let me get this straight a human seventeen year old girl gets away from the badest vampire Major that has ever been and he didn't even feel her doing it?" Garrett said.

"There were a lot of people in the airport at the time and she thought that James had her mother at the time. Edward was only a few minutes from landing so she thought it was her only chance to get away." I said.

"So what did Edward do when he realised that Bella had gotten away?" Garrett asked.

"Nothing at the time but once we had all gotten home he laid into me. Almost meet the Major doing it but he reminded me that I was the one that let her get away and I should just take what I was being dealt with. That was the worst three weeks of my life after that. Edward made me be Bella's personal morphine. I was not to let Bella feel the full extent of her pain. She was in pain for three full weeks after she came home. Edward had to come home a few days after she woke up. The only ones to stay with her down in Phoenix were Carlisle and Alice. Carlisle because he was going to be her primary care doctor once she got back to Forks and Alice because she helped Bella to shower and change every day. Carlisle kept her on pain meds until she was back in my range because that is what Edward had told him. During that time Alice found out more about her past. She never found out she is actually older then she actually is but that is the way that Ryan and I made it. If the Volturi ever found out that I did that then I would get in a lot of trouble not that anyone that I ever tell remembers it anyway." I answered.

"Your coffee's guys. Now what were you talking about?" Bella said handing both of us a coffee each.

"Jasper being your personal morphine at one stage." Garrett answered.

"When was that?" Bella asked. She looked at me when she asked that.

"After Phoenix." I answered. "It was my punishment from Edward for letting you get away from me. This was after he beat me up of course."

"What do you mean he beat you up?" Bella asked.

"Exactly that he beat me up. He fought with me hard the whole time that he was home after your accident in Phoenix." I said. "Then to add more to it I was your own personal morphine when you got home. Don't you remember not feeling any pain what so ever after you got home?"

"Yeah Alice kept telling me to take my meds but I kept telling her that I never felt any pain so I don't see why I had to take them. But she knew the whole time that you were actually taking the pain from me." Bella said.

Just then we heard the announcement for the plane to Port Angeles.
