Vampire Werewolves Mermaids Oh My
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Chapter 3: Carlisle Explanation
"Vampires," the three mermaids said at the same time the three vampires yelled, "Bella." Bella looked at the three vampires.
"What?" Bella asked sensing they were mad at her. It wasn't like she had a choice in telling her new friends about them. How else could she possible explain why they sparkle?
"You're not supposed to tell anyone," Jasper hissed at Bella clearly upset. Right then the rest of the Cullen came down to the beach.
"Told you so," Alice said. Everyone seemed to be quite for a while.
Carlisle was looking at us. "I think…." He stopped talking for a while "Yes, that could be possible. Everyone get to this moon pool."
"Why?" Rikki said upset. The moon pool is the girls' special place and they wanted to keep it that way.
"I think I know how the werewolves came to be." Carlisle said shocking the three mermaids. "You didn't tell them about the werewolves Bella?" Bella shook her head no. "Well we came here because we heard there were wolves here and we had to make sure."
"Vampires, werewolves, mermaids oh my," Rikki said as a joke making everyone look at her. "Well I thought it was funny."
"Just let's go to this moon pool," Rosalie said in a hissed.
"We'll go the underwater way," Emma said and went underwater followed by her two friends and then Bella. Edward showed the rest of the Cullens to the pool. They were surprised to see the four girls waiting inside the water.
"So, Carlisle. What's up?" Bella said pulling herself out of the moon pool. "What does this have to so with the werewolves?"
Carlisle didn't answer for a while but looked. "The full moon goes right over the volcano?" The four girls answered together with a yes. "Well then I know what happened. Bella, do you remembered Edward telling you about the Volturi?"
"A little. They're some kind of vampire royal family or something."
"Vampire royal family?" Cleo asked shocked.
"They're the closest thing we have a royalty. They're the most powerful group of vampires in the world." Carlisle stopped for a minute looking at the water. "Anyway years ago…."
"How long are we talking?" Emma asked.
"Long before you were born." The girls just nodded. "One of the members of the family almost lost his life to a werewolf. He became so mad that him and members of the guard hunted down every werewolf in the world and killed them until the species was no more."
"What about the wolves back in Forks?" Bella asked.
"Those wolves called themselves werewolves, but they are really shape sifters. It's a long story I don't really feel like talking about." Carlisle said and then continued. "They got them all, but there must have been someone with a werewolf gene, someone who didn't know they had the gene."
"Are you saying someone had a dormant werewolf gene?" Esme asked Carlisle who nodded. "But if it was dormant it wouldn't be a problem. The person would never know and the gene probably wouldn't even have been passed on to the offspring."
"I think Carlisle has a reason why we're having a werewolf problem," Edward said. Edward had complete faith in Carlisle and waited for him to continue.
"Thank you Edward." Carlisle took an unneeded breath and continued. "This pool has great power. A normal human comes into it during the full moon and as these four will show they become a mermaid. That's most likely the main reason this pool exist, but not everyone is human in the world. Who knows what will happen if a vampire ends up here, but I think I know what will happen to someone with a dormant werewolf gene."
"The gene awakens," Alice whispered.
"Yes, so someone who knows about this pool was here on a full moon and ended up as a werewolf. Now he's killing and biting people making the people he bites a werewolf."
"Lewis," Cleo whispered.
"What about Lewis?" Emma asked.
"Last month, remember. He got bitten by a wild dog and now he's acting weird." Cleo once again started to cry.
"Sounds like we know who one wolf is," Rosalie said.
"Come on, let's go beat him up and kill him." Emmett said with asmile.
"NO," The three girls screamed together causing the vampire to freeze.
"No one is going to hurt this Lewis. It wouldn't help much anyway." Carlisle explained. "Besides we can probably save everyone who was bitten." Everyone looked at him. "It hasn't been too long since this started. If we can find out who the father of this pack is and kill him then all his little kiddies can be free of the wolf, but if it takes too long then the kiddies will grow up and we will have to kill them too."
"Why don't you just call this royal family in?" Emma asked.
"We can't," Rosalie said. "The one rule is don't tell a human and we've broken that rule. If we call the Volturi in then they will kill the wolves, but they will also kill all of us."
"But you haven't broken the rule," Rikki said making everyone look at her. "You said humans can't be told, but we're not humans. We're mermaids. No rule broken."
"That actually makes sense," Emma said.
"If we call the Volturi in they will kill all the wolves, not just look for the father." That got the girls to stop talking. They didn't want their friend to die. "This is going to be difficult. It's almost impossible to tell whose a wolf without a full moon and the next full moon is a month away. Looks like we'll be hanging around for a while."
"Doesn't matter, Bella can't go home," Edward mumbled loud enough for everyone to hear. Alice hit him over the head, which of course sounded like two rocks hitting each other. Emma, Rikki, and Cleo looked at the two shocked.
Edward and Alice were talking to each other too fast for the four mermaids to hear. Edward ran out of the cave and the little pixie of a vampire ran after him. "He's not taking this well is he?" Bella asked, but the answer was so obvious. Edward was having a hard time with this.
"Okay, you girls are going to have to help us." Carlisle said. "We need to know about everyone who's a wolf and everyone who knows the location of this pool."
"Well there's us and Lewis," Cleo said.
"Don't forget Zane," Rikki added.
"That boy you were fighting with?" Bella asked and Rikki nodded.
"He's back?" Emma asked and Rikki once again nodded. "Stay away from him. We can't have him thinking we're still mermaids." Emma thought for a minute. "That brings up another point. Dr. Denman and all of her men we tricked into thinking we gave up being mermaids."
"We thought we gave up being mermaids," Cleo added to that.
"Besides the point," Emma said.
"Also anyone could have just come across the cave like I did." Bella threw in and the three girls had to agree. The father of this pack could be anyone.
"Well that goes back to finding out who werewolves are and if they were bitten."
"That could be hard. Not everyone who was bitten went to the hospital. Lewis didn't." Cleo told Carlisle.
"Well find out who has been acting strange lately and find out if they've been bitten. We're not going to be much help. My family can't go out in the sun and it's almost impossible for even a vampire to tell when there isn't a full moon out."
"That comes to a problem for us. We can't go out in a full moon," Emma said causing everyone to look. "We'll tell you later Bella. Right now let's go start to work."
"Stay away from anyone who might be a wolf. Even as a human they're dangerous." Carlisle warned.
Emma nodded as she went under and swam away. Cleo followed. "You coming Bells?" Rikki asked. "We could find out what your power is on the way." Bella looked at the Cullens for a minute before nodding and swimming away with Rikki.
"She's going to break Edward's heart," Rosalie hissed.
"You can't blame her," Esme said. "Those girls can give Bella something right now that we can't. She needs to know everything about what she is and we can't help her." Rosalie hissed again and left the moon pool.
Slowly everyone left besides Carlisle and Esme. "Bella has been the best thing to happen to this family for a while,' Carlisle stated and Esme agreed. "It's over though."
"What do you mean? Bella loves Edward and Edward loves Bella."
"Bella different now. I don't think she can become one of us." Carlisle told Esme. "She can't be anywhere it's too wet. I don't know how we'll overcome this one." Carlisle kissed Esme and he too left the moon pool. Esme looked at the water for another minute before leaving.
AN: okay, that's it for now. I'm sorry it's been a while, but I've been busy lately. Review.
