Chapter 7: My Family

Alexia's POV

"You're lying" Rosalie said flatly.

"Am not" It took every ounce of my inner self control to stop myself from screaming at her.

"Of course you are!" she spat. "You expect us to believe that you a human are the offspring of a vampire hybrid and one of those mutts! If you were truly their daughter then you would have inherited some supernatural traits but you have none. So therefore you must be lying"

"I am not lying!" I shouted back. "I don't know what it is either. None of my family ever understood it either. I think I'm just a genetic defect. I don't know. But I am not lying"

"Alexia I believe you" Carlisle said.

"and so do I" Esme added.

"You do?" I asked them.

"Yes we do. First of all there is no possible way that you could know about Renesmee or Jacob unless you knew them personally. Second you look exactly like your grandmother. I had already begun to speculate that you might have somehow been related to Bella. Althouh I must admit that a grandmother-granddaughter relationship never crossed my mind" Carlisle said.

"So that makes you my great grandfather then?" I asked.

He smiled at me before pulling me into a hug. "It sure does little one"

"and you're my great grandmother?" I asked Esme.

All Esme did was yank me away from Carlisle and pull me into a hug.

Soon I was getting hugged by every member of the family. Except Rosalie. She still seemed a bit cold.

"You all really believe her?" Rosalie asked. She was seriously beginning to make my blood boil. If she said one more comment like that I was going to lose it.

"I have no reason to doubt her" Carlisle said. "and I have a way to prove if she is related to Nessie or not. I have a sample of her blood that I have kept to study over the years. All I need is a sample of Alexia's blood to compare Nessie's blood with. Maybe I can also figure out why she didn't inherit any supernatural abilities"

"Yeah I'd like to know that too" I said. "My brothers have very strong vampire and shape shifter abilities"

"Wait, you have brothers?" Carlisle asked.

"Jacob Jr., Mark, and Leo. We're all quadruplets"

"Wait, quadruplets? You were all born at the same time?" he asked me.

"Yes, we were" I told him.

"Alexia, why did you run away? They all must be worried sick about you"

"I don't think so. I was ignored and left out. Sometimes I think that they just forgot I even existed" I admitted.

"I don't think that's true" Carlisle said. "Nessie would never do something like that. Not on purpose anyway"

"I don't know" I said. "But I didn't like it. They didn't pay attention to me. My humanity just got in their way. That is the only time they paid attention to e. When my humanity annoyed them. So that's why I left"

"Alexia, can you come with me for minute?" Carlisle said. "I want to take a sample of your blood already and I a few more questions for you"

"Yeah, sure, okay"

I followed Carlisle to his office. I watched as he cleansed my arm and then brought a needle toward me. I closed my eyes when I saw what he was about to do. You see, unlike the rest of my family, blood made me queasy.

"So Alexia where do you live? Where is Nessie? We haven't seen her in almost 20 years, as you already know"

"Wyoming. We live really close to Yellowstone National Park. Something about there being an abundance of tasty wildlife" I said. He just smiled.

"Okay, then we are leaving. As soon as possible. You're coming with us"

"Wait, what?" I said.

"You're coming with us. I'm sure that your family is going out of their minds looking for you. If they are anything like we are then they are regretting what they did that made you leave. I'm sure that they love you and care about you more than you realize"

I was not 100 percent convinced that what Carlisle was saying was true. How could it be? But I'll just go along with it. Maybe he was right, though I still had serious doubts.

He finished drawing my blood and let me go. All I could do was wait around. Nobody moved or even said anything. Rosalie just looked annoyed with me. She really did think I was lying didn't she? As if I could just make up a whole story like that! Seriously, I am not that creative.

Carlisle came back a few hours later with the results of my blood work.

"I knew it" he said. "She is telling the truth. She is in fact Nessie's daughter"

"But how is that possible?" Rosalie asked. "She is a human!"

"Well yes and no. Like Nessie and Jacob she inherited a 24th pair of chromosomes. I studied the chromosomes and there is genetic material that could only come from a vampire and a shape shifter"

"But I don't understand" I said, confusedly. "Why am I human if inherited those genes?"

"Well for shape shifters they need an external trigger in order to phase into a wolf. There haven't been many cases of females phasing either so I think that might also have something to do with it. Right now it seems as if you're genes are supernatural genetics of both vampires and wolves have been deactivated. I believe they do have the potential to activate, but you just need a stronger then trigger then your brothers did"

Whoa this was a lot of information to take in. Carlisle really was smart wasn't he? He got all that out of just a few hours of studying my DNA?

"I think we should contact Bella and Edward as soon as possible. They need to know what is happening here. I just hope that it won't be to difficult to do" he said.

"Actually we don't have to do that" Alice said. "I just saw a vision of them. They made a decision to come back and visit us. They will be here tonight"
