"Yes, of course. I will be there shortly, Chief Swan." Carlisle released a long sigh when he hung up the phone.

Esme had been standing right beside him and wringing her hands with worry, like any good mother would for her wayward children.

"Did I hear right? Chief Swan has the children?" Carlisle only nodded. He pulled his wife into an embrace, the situation was getting out of hand and now the situation was becoming dire. From over his wife's shoulder Carlisle looked to the white couch where Jasper was still setting vigilant over a worried Alice. She was yet again trying to get a good vision of their future.

"Yes. I'm not completely sure of what happened but it seems that Chief Swan has the children in custody." He saw Jasper's jaw tighten with that implication, if they were in police custody then that would lead to a lot of uncomfortable and potentially damning questions, particularly if he had caught them in the act. But Carlisle didn't seem to think that was the case and was no doubt hoping for a peaceful solution.

The four sat in silence and were in deep thought. Carlisle wasn't seeing any good out come from the scenarios that were running through his mind.

"I GOT IT!" Carlisle, Esme and Jasper all jumped, startled by Alice's outburst.

Everyone looked to the psychic as she beamed with delight.

(;¬_¬)

As a rule, Edward never wanted to do anything non-human around humans. Doing otherwise was the fastest way to draw the wrath of the Volturi. So when they had been caught by Chief Swan, after he had hit Bella with his patrol car, he and his siblings quickly learned what a deer felt like when it was caught in headlights.

They could have ran, and if Bella was any indication, they would have outrun Chief Swan easily. Although Edward wasn't sure if he was like his daughter, he was obviously in the know about his daughter's unnatural behavior.

So it was there he found himself on the couch in the Swan home, to his left was the object of his budding affection, Bella, who was slowly rousing from her drug induced sleep. He wondered what that was that her father had used to knock her out; whatever it was, it was strong. It had an almost sickly sweetness to it.

'This was not how I…. ing to end.' Charlie's thoughts had always been difficult to hear. Before, Edward had only heard his muddled thoughts in passing so until this moment, he had never had a reason to care about what the Fork's Police Chief was thinking.

Carlisle would be on his way soon, no doubt under the assumption that Rose, Emmett, and now himself were in trouble for a tame crime. He was definitely not thinking along the lines of breaking and entering, or attempted murder.

'Now let's see what the hell was …. home to this.' Charlie sighed.

'So how are we going to explain this, Eddie?' Emmett thought to me. Rosalie was thankfully quiet other than the occasional low, annoying whine.

"Just play along for now."I said as quietly so as not to alert Chief Swan.

To my left, Bella was starting to rouse and grumble as she held a hand to her head.

"Chief Swan, I think there is a good explanation for what's happened tonight." Edward quickly found his words were not going to help, and throwing on the charm here would do him no good. The look on Charlie's told him all he needed to know.

'This should…ood let see… his lie is.' Came Charlie's thought as he pocketed his phone and looked Edward in the eyes.

"Your father will be here any minute now and he and I will be having a talk about y'all's behavior. Till then, the four of you are sitting right here." Rose, Emmett, and Edward wisely stayed put. Bella moaned as she started to wake.

Edward watched as Bella looked around the room, taking in each face in seriously but when she caught sight met Rosalie she froze. Bella had a very sobering moment as the night's events caught up to her.

"You!" She didn't get very far with that as Charlie steeped in holding the small pouch of Verbascum in front of Bella who cringed and instantly started to doze off again.

"Oh no, I'll not have any roughhousing tonight. That's all we need is a hole in a wall." Bella winced, and so did Rose.

Charlie's eyes narrowed. "What did you four do?" It was easy to see that Charlie was livid as he turned his piercing gaze on each of us.

"It was only me and Rosalie," Bella shook her hand. "I didn't even notice Edward and... umm Emmett right?" Bella said. "How is the car?"

Charlie shook his head. "I'll have to file a report, the radiator is cracked I think. Maybe I can pass it off as a deer ran out in front of me. Pretty sure that hitting your daughter at thirty-five mile per hour is going to throw up some red flags. "

Emmett spoke up for the first time. "Wait, you mean the two of you are more worried about the car than the fact that your daughter was hit by said car? This is getting Twilight Zone weird." He chuckled as Rose forcefully nudged him to make her displeasure known.

"Want me to be more curious about the… well, cracks on your sister's neck?" Charlie asked. Edward was sure that Bella got her curiosity from him now.

"Uhhhh…."

"That's what I thought."

Charlie seemed to think for a minute then taking a few steps toward the stairs but stopped and looked back at the teens. "The four of you keep your butts planted right where they are until I get back. Oh, and here," Charlie said from the third step, pitching a pouch of Verbascum to Edward. He fixed each of the three Cullens with a stern look, "if she acts up still mad just wave that in her face it'll calm her down." Then headed up the stairs.

(」゜ロ゜)」

I have never drank alcohol, but after getting hit in the face by powdered Verbascum, I think I know what a hangover feels like.

After blinking a few times, all six people in the room turned into three people. The OS that was my brain finally finish booting and I realized the three faces in front of me were the Cullens. Closest to me was Edward, followed by his larger brother Emmett, and…

"You!" I saw red again; there has to be something about this town.

I was up in an instant. Edward was up in an half an instant and a sickeningly sweet and musty smell assaulted my nose and Edward was holding something too my face. The room spinning for a moment and I had to sit back down in the chair or I was going to fall out in the floor. Edward stood over me with a small pouch held out as he sat down beside me.

I pushed his hand away as he held it toward me like it was it was an offering.

"Get that away from me I'm fine now." I hated that crap, made me feel like a week-old puppy.

"What kind of freak are you?" That was Rosalie, I would know that smug voice anywhere and I had mostly just heard her screaming and growling. I grinned and then chuckled at my own joke.

"What kind of freaks are all of you?" I said, suddenly nervous. "You're not human that's for sure. Figured that one out when Edward's hand didn't pop off like a Pringles top." I leveled my gaze at the trio.

None of them spoke.

Edward for his part looked like a puppy that had just gotten scolded. I glowered at the other two, mostly Rosalie. She leaned back on the couch to avoid me, but I caught the look on her face. She was a pro at being a bitch but the look I gave her caused her to flinch. Her only defence hiding behind her brick wall of a boyfriend.

That's right hide behind your boy toy.

"Plus, you break into my father's house and you're still acting stuck up." Emmett started whispering to his girlfriend and comforting her while he shot me a dirty look. I'm not vindictive usually. I have had to deal with other kids growing up, but breaking into my room is crossing the line. I decided to twist the knife a little more. I grinned. "I might suggest turtlenecks for a while, Blondie."

A growl came from the other side of the brick wall of a boyfriend and Rosalie was up in an instant. I reflected her stance immediately and was quickly followed by Edward who just about appeared out of nowhere. He was in turn staring down Emmett as Rosalie locked eyes with me.

"What part of keeping your asses planted on that couch did you not understand?" The fight in me was gone as my father walked in and I was slumped down in my chair; I think faster than Edward, Rosalie, and Emmett. Which I was finding out was pretty quick so that was an accomplishment on it's own. They were fast for people that seemed to be made of rock.

My dad was coming down the stairs when he spoke. I knew the look on his face: he was not happy. The memory of blondie and myself crashing through the side of the house came to mind. I gently bit my inner lip.

They knew I wasn't human, we knew they weren't human.

This whole ordeal was spinning out of control and my father knew it. He stood in front of us with that fatherly stare; it was accusing, and rightly so. I thought I felt a little more of his anger when it should have been directed at Rosalie.

"What the hell were you four thinking?" He walked circles in the living room as he addressed us. He ran a hand through his hair as he turned to me. "I know that you know better."

"They broke in our house, I was asleep then the blonde over there decided that she wanted to get a piece of me. I reacted." This was not my fault.

"You reacted all right, your bed is broke in half and there is a hole in the floor. But the hole in the floor is a small thing compared to the gaping hole in the side of the house." Edward winced as Charlie explained the destruction from the fight. "You three, hell, I guess your whole family for that matter, aren't really normal. I get that, I didn't care, still kind of don't but you know what I do care about?"

Charlie knew how to make a point. He was starting to make me feel like a little kid again; like the time I got upset and flipped the table in the kitchen.

"Peace and quiet. You just move here a few years ago but I have lived here for… a while." He took a moment to let his anger simmer so it was more manageable.

"I like Forks, and I would really like if it could stay the sleepy little town that I am used to. That means we all get along. If that means we have to have a sit down and talk then that's what we'll do. It's safe to say you don't want to be arrested for breaking and entering or assault, do you Miss Cullen?" I could see blonde hair on the other side of the brick wall, shaking back and forth.

"Good, so when you father gets here, he and I are going to have a little talk." To my laidback father it was over. No blame, everyone was alive so to him it was over.

"So now that we have an understanding, how much can she lift?" It was the first time Emmett had really spoke, well to anyone other than Rosalie that is. "What are you guys? I mean, it was pretty impressive that she could do that much damage to my Rose." This comment earned him a hand to the back of the head, a laugh from me, and a grin from my father.

"I think we'll save that for a later talk. I still need to talk with your father." Lights shined brightly through the street-view window and it sounded like a car just drove into the driveway. "Speaking of which…."

¯\_(⌣̯̀⌣́)_/¯

Esme was worried and understandably so. Three of her children were being held by the Chief of police. They had had close calls before in the past, that was just the folly of their species, they were denying the very bases of there being to be something they are not. To hold on to a small part of what they lost. To each of them it was worth it.

But sometimes, there were flaws in the production of their human life. Sometimes someone got too close, as not every human was blissfully ignorant of what was going on around them. Bella Swan however was not so ignorant, nor was she human so the usual outcome did not apply to her anyway.

Neither her husband nor Esme had spoken since they had left the house after Alice's confession that everything would be okay. Better than okay if things continued on the way that it was in her vision.

Her vision had gone a long way in easing their concerns and Esme relaxed a bit just thinking about it. The whole situation was still not sitting right with her. Esme felt as though she should have stopped the whole thing before it started, but the family had always been democratic and the vote had somewhat been in favor of solving the problem that is Isabella Swan.

The two nervous parents pulled into the driveway of the Swan home and both sighed; they were going into the unknown here. The two met in front of the black SUV and Esme looked over to her husband then passed him on the way to the front door, her face twisted as she took in the sight of the police cruiser. It looked to her like the cruiser has struck something as it was dented in but not as though it was a tree, that was would have been a more precise and vertical indentation. By now, her husband was looking along with her when the door opened and closed and both parents turned to see the police chief of Forks, Charlie Swan, had walked out.

She could tell Charlie was tired as he racked his hand through his hair and greeted them. He turned to walk around the house while beckoning them with his hand to follow him.

"Chief, where are the children? Are they okay?" Esme had to know. She could hear one loud heart beat in the house and one from Charlie, but no one was talking at the moment and she was getting worried.

Charlie shook his head. "Yeah, they'll be fine." The three parents came around the side of the house and were all looking upon the yard that was littered with pits of wood and glass. "That girl of yours sure can take a punch. Though I'm pretty sure Bella will have a black eye for a day or so."

The window Esme saw on the second floor had almost been blown out from the bottom to the top. The top of the window frame was still there but the bottom part was lying outside with them.

"Thank goodness." Esme was relieved that nobody had gotten seriously hurt.

"I think your daughter might need to wear a turtleneck for a while." That was vague and random statement. "Look, the fact of the matter is that I don't know what she is, and I'm guessing your family is all the same. That's fine, I really don't care. Up until now I have had no problem with your kids and that's not something I can say about a lot of kids their age."

"What happened here?" This was far more damage than she had thought Rosalie would have caused.

"Well as I was driving home, I was just about to pull into the driveway when out of nowhere a girl with mahogany hair came flying in front of my cruiser. I hit my daughter at about forty miles per hour." He said as he made a fist and gently tapped the side of the tree that faced away from the house.

Esme was stunned, he had hit his daughter with his car but he was just going on with his day like it was nothing. Like the poor girl had just stumped her toe on a coffee table. Her husband was spoke up, his doctor instinct kicking in fast.

"Charlie! Chief Swan," Carlisle corrected. "should I maybe take a look and make sure she is ok?" Emphasizing his doctor status but the police Chief just waved him off. "She's fine, your girl however had a kind spider web looking cracks on her neck though." The Chief replied back.

Esme's hands went to her mouth as she gasped, Rose was physically harmed, Bella was hit by a car, and here was a father that just seemed to be shrugging everything off. Not to mention he had to know that they were not human due the damage her lovely daughter had suffered. She realized that both they and Bella were on equal ground.

"I would still like to see the children, just to make sure." Carlisle said frustratedly.

"I have to agree with my husband." Esme said, echoing her husband's concern. Charlie just looked at the couple with a hard stare, and the carefree attitude was gone from the chief of police. To Esme, it was startling how cold the man had become so suddenly.

"The children are fine." He said fixing each of the two adults in turn. "The pressing issue we, as in the three of us, need to decide is if your family and mine can coexist here. You're not human," Esme felt a chill run up her spine. "I get that; it's fine, I don't really care. The question is, are we going to have a problem here? I know that Bella shares just as much of the blame for this all getting out of hand, but breaking into my house is where I draw the line."

"Chief Swan, I'm really sorry for everything." Esme said.

"Call me Charlie as I think we all know I'm not playing the part of the chief of police right now." Charlie said eyeing both parents.

"Yes, Charlie. I'm sure we can come to an understanding so that something doesn't happen again. Maybe we can all have a sit down talk and sort out an understanding. Now can we please tend to the children?" The last statement was at the forefront of her mind, particularly after Charlie had mentioned the spider web cracks on Rosalie's neck. Charlie nodded to the couple then he put both hands on the tree and pushed.

Esme watched as Charlie Swan stood about two feet from the tree and then leaned into it and pushed, forcing the large oak tree up and forward. The tree was slowly uprooted and pushed toward the house until the large branch that had been reaching for the window was inside the large hole to make it seem like it was the tree that made the hole.

She chanced a glance at her husband and he wore the same expression of surprise when Charlie stood back and dusted his hands off. It seemed that Bella was not such an anomaly and her father was at least as strong his daughter.

"Yeah, that is a good idea but I'm sure the kids are fine. Let me make one last thing clear before we head in though. Bella is young, inexperienced, and untrained but I am not and I know how to handle myself like an adult; so if anyone tries to hurt my little girl again, we won't be talking about our problems. At that point your little girl with have more than a few cracks on her neck." A chill had crawled up Esme's spine at the venom in his words and she could oddly sympathize with the man. He was a parent that wanted to protect his daughter, but that didn't mean that she was going to let him hurt her daughter. "Okay, now let's check on the kids." He said as if he hadn't just threatened anyone.

Charlie looked back up a the tree now forced through the hole. "Does that look like it could have been caused by straight line winds?" He asked.

"Close enough." Both Esme and Carlisle answer at the same time.

Author Notes:

Oh hi o/

Thanks to all my reviews, readers and everyone that supports me with this fun little project.

So the story will continue and we will see what happens to Bella and Charlie. Oh, and what did you think of the reveal of Charlie? I don't want him or Bella to come off as a Mary Sue but I want it clear there is something just as supernatural about them as there is with the Cullens.

I always felt there was a great disservice with not exploring other supernatural things in Twilight. I think someday Stephanie will return to the Twilight world, probably when she is pressured, and expand on the world. Much like J.K. Rowling returning to the HP universe after her other stories didn't pan out.

Especially the comment where Bella says that "If Angela turns out to be a witch she can join in too." That just seemed like a great setup and foreshadowing, such a wasted chance.

Chapter notes:

I really hope you all enjoyed this chapter. I had to re-write several parts of it as I'm trying to feel out the perspective of some other characters. It helps that you the reader already has a pre-constructed idea about the characters. That means there are some things that I can leave out and your mind fills it in on its own. :3

There were parts of this chapter I am not quite happy about and I'm not sure if I made them better or worse. I just wanted to move on from this chapter and failed a little bit.

Also not so sure that I'm varying up my words and writing structures enough. I think I'm okay when there is only two characters and then maybe a third that I don't really have to deal with much in a scene but add many more and I kind of feel like I lose some of them. They're just there in the background. Emmett would be a good example in this chapter. I tried to give him something but no matter what I did I felt like I failed him.

Oh well, perhaps later.

Just to let you all know I do not intend to go through every part of the Twilight series. I think I will deviate from some things: keep what I want and skip/discard what I don't.

Again the premise for this story was simple: Bella is really strong and not quite human. She is not as weak willed as the original, she has a bit of a backbone and is not emotionally dependent on Edward's every whim.

Thanks to all my reviews, readers and everyone that supports me with this fun little project.
