Twilight FF Chap 2

Life continued for the Cullens, though only one family member showed the passing of time. Renesmee was now mature physically. She stood taller than Bella, beautiful and graceful, just like any other vampire. Jacob had finally stopped growing, his growth stopping at 6'11, but hadn't aged, he was going to stay immortal to spend his time with Renesmee. In the human world, time had taken its usual harsh course. Charlie had grown old, though he hadn't been alone. He married Sue Clearwater and they were happy, passing each day together. The Cullen family was holding out on moving though it was long past due, their most recent high school graduating class was now celebrating its 30 year reunion. The family wanted to stay for Bella's sake, they were afraid that the Volturi were going to try and use Charlie to get to Bella and the rest of the family. They weren't too worried about Renee, for they hadn't spent much time away from the cloud cover of Forks, so the chance for her to be found were slim to none. Carlisle had said, " The Volturi have relied on their abilities for so long, without our scents leading them to Renee, they should not be able to find her. And I bet the idea of using human methods of finding her would be a blow to the image they have created." This held true, but change its on its way for the immortal family, final farewells will be said, and tears will be shed, immortal life will go on.

Renesmee in Forks. Year: 2036

Renesmee walked through the renovated house. After her parents had gained some control over their more, intimate instincts, they had moved in with the rest of the family. To accommodate for more people, Esme had decided to change the house around, and adding more space to it. Walking into the kitchen she found the fridge door open and someone shifting around in it, she already knew who it was. There was only one person that would need something to eat that had to be kept cool. Jake stood up reaching his full height, his head almost brushing the ceiling. In his hands was a platter full of assorted meats and a jug of milk. When he looked up he smiled a great big smile. "Oh hey Ness, just getting a snack." Ness, the name that everyone calls her now, except for her parents and Charlie. Nessie seemed to childish to the rest of the family, even to Jake, now that she had finished growing. She walked up and wrapped her arms around him, her head barely reaching his bare chest.

"I thought that you were going to hunt with me today?"

"Like I said, this is a snack. I'll be hungry in a couple of hours."

"Good, you can even have desert." Renesmee shot him the "look," and his already high body heat rose a few more degrees.

"Ness," Jake looked around even though he knew looking wasn't going to do much good, vampire hearing was way to good, " are you serious! What if Bella heard you?"

"Seriously Jake you need to lighten up about this, I know you've thought about it." She traced her fingers along his abdomen. " You just need to quit being such a wuss around my mom. Its natural, we are meant for each other just like her and dad. The only thing that made them wait was because mom was still human," both of there heads turned at the same time, listening to a rapid approach, "shit, speak of the devil." Renesmee jumped up on the counter and picked some meat from Jake's platter.

"Oh shit! Do you think she heard us?" Jake was trying to bend down low enough to peer out the windows, but with his height he looked like he was doing a strange dance instead. Renesmee punched him in his shoulder and glared at him.

"Do you think she heard what?" Bella was now in the kitchen too, looking at them appraisingly.

"Haha hey Bells! Nothing, we were just talking about uh..."

"We were talking about having sex." Jake stared at Ness, open mouthed at her nonchalance about the subject in front of her mom. He turned and flashed an unsure smile at Bella, tensing ready to run for his life.

"Oh okay." Renesmee took in Jakes stupefied look, laughing to herself. Jake was too easy to read, he had seriously been expecting to have to phase in the kitchen and run at full speed away from a vampire. Looking over Renesmee saw her mom came to the same conclusion she had. " Seriously Jake , this whole imprinting thing turned you into a wuss. Nessie is 30 years old, she can make her own damn decisions. Sometimes I really do feel like your mother now instead of your best friend." Ness looked over at Jake and stuck her tongue out.

"Am I..... really that much of a wuss?" Renesmee could tell that his pride was obviously shaken, he was called a wuss two times in less than five minutes. Bella looked between them, confused at his depression. Renesmee leaned over and touched her mother's arm, showing her the conversation that had just taken place, and understanding dawned on her mother's face.

"Yes Jake, are you sure you don't turn into a cat now? Cuz' you act like a pussy."

"Good one mom!" Nessie reached over and gave her mom a high five. Emmett had been approaching and got within earshot just in time for the punchline. His boisterous laugh got louder as he came inside with Rosalie.

"Damn Bella, I have taught you well." He walked over and gave Bella a high five. Jake pulled up a stool and sat at the counter slumped over.

Now it was Rosalie's turn, " I was thinking about getting a cat, but now it looks like I don't have to." Rose never missed a chance to poke fun at their canine friend, they were locked in a never ending battle. Emmett's laughter came again, and with each guffaw, Jake shoveled more food into his mouth.

"Ya ya laugh it up, every vampire thinks they are a comedian." Everyone was laughing at Jake's expense now. Renesmee leaned over on to him, consoling him.

"Seriously Jake, I've had long enough to accept the fact that you two will have that kind of relationship. I know that you won't hurt her. One: you love her more than anything, and two: you know I can kick your ass now and that I would." This seemed to do the trick, and Jake was instantly better.

"Thanks Bells, but you know you couldn't handle me in a fight." Jake started to flex, going through Mr. Universe poses, looking better than all of the contestants did on their best days. Renesmee looked him over, every muscle was defined, he had striations everywhere. He didn't look grotesque like the body builders did though, veins big enough to let half dollars flow through. Too much muscle to even be able to scratch their own back. Then Emmett joined in. He ripped his shirt in two and started posing alongside Jake. The competition continued then a third contestant showed up, Seth. Seth had also continued to transform, keeping him from aging. Though it didn't keep him from growing. He was no longer in the lanky, awkward phase of development. He now stood just an inch or two shorter than Jake, and was almost equally muscular as Jake.

"Oh ho ho! Lets get this party started!" Seth jumped right in and kept pace. Everyone was enjoying themselves. Esme showed up with Alice, the extra attention fueling the posing war. It kept going until Edward, Carlisle and Jasper showed up. There expressions all differed, Carlisle shocked, Edward at a loss for words, and Jasper confused. The room burst into laughs at the faces of the newly arrived trio. "So I think its clear who won this," Seth said stretching and finding seat.

The night wore on and everyone was laughing and talking, except for Alice. No one noticed her far off glare, not until the thoughts ran through her head of the future she just saw.

"Bella, Charlie is having a heart attack!" Before Edward had finished she had darted out the window, running as fast as she could for her old house. Everyone else was right behind her, Edward quickly catching up. Renesmee was keeping right with them, tears running down her face.

"Alice, please tell me grandpa is going to be alright. Please!" Nessie couldn't stop the tears, she didn't know how, this was the first time she had cried. The fear of losing someone she loved never really occurred to her since most couldn't really die.

"I don't know Ness, I'm sorry I just can't tell yet." The sorrow set in Alice's face, and Renesmee couldn't look at her anymore. Jake was running along side her, and nudged her with his muzzle whining in between pants. Seth was further ahead with the rest of the group, racing to get to his mother.

They quickly got the old house and barged in. There on the living room floor lay Charlie, clutching his chest. Bella was already on the floor next to him by the time Renesmee got in the house.

"Dad! Look at me dad, please wake up. Common Charlie you can't leave me!"

Seth came down the stairs carrying his mother. She starting sobbing. "Charlie, no no no no no NO! Charlie wake up baby. Please not yet!" Carlisle came barreling in, knocking Emmett and Jake out of the way, putting holes in the wall. He had a large bag and immediately started taking things out. He took out a case and unrolled it across the floor. Syringes were safely tucked in loops, Carlisle pulled out what looked like random needles but everyone there knew differently. All of the mythically blessed in the room could hear the erratic heart beat start to change, to speed up.

"I have to perform surgery now. Don't breathe, the scent will be too strong for some who haven't hunted. A scalpel flashed and then the blood ran from Charlie's exposed chest. Jasper hadn't hunted for weeks as well as Alice. She escorted him out of the room, whether she saw him attacking or just for his own sake. Renesmee stood back hand over her mouth.

"This can't be happening," she whispered. Edward came over and held her tightly to him.

"Go talk to him he can hear you."

Renesmee was trembling, walking over staying out of Carlisle's way, kneeling next her mom. "We have to talk to him mom, bring him back to us."

"Ya, ya you're right. Common dad you have to come back to us, we would all be lost without you," as Bella was talking Sam Uley came in carrying Billy Black, the rest of the large pack waited outside, " who would watch the games with Billy? Nessie needs you pops." Billy was weeping silently, his face shining in the light. Sue, crying into Seth's waist.

Renesmee put her hands on Charlie's face, she was going to talk to him the way only she could. She showed him every image she had of him, dating back to the first time she saw him. All of the happy memories, how much she needed him and loved him. That was when her mom said the words that turned the room silent.

"We have to turn him."

Jacob

Jake clutched his ribs, Carlisle had broken a couple knocking him out of the way. He looked at the pain on his loved one's faces. The pain on Renesmee's face hurt more than anything else. Jake would give anything to keep her safe, to keep her happy. Jake hurt, he was absolutely helpless. The pain multiplied when his best friend suggested opening Pandora's Box once again.

"We have to turn him! He can't die!" Outside, snarls erupted from the wolves. Sam shuddered, trying to keep himself from phasing.

"No! We will not allow this! It was one thing when Bella chose to be turned but its another when the person has no say!" The wolves outside were pacing, snarling, waiting for the command to come inside to tear the vampires to pieces. All the while Carlisle kept working, his nimble fingers expertly working his craft. Sam started forward as if to attack, instantly Emmett, Edward, Rosalie and Seth barred his path. Seth shaking so hard, his teeth were rattling, Esme guarding Sue and Billy.

Jake had never been so angry in his entire life. His anger manifesting itself, heat radiated off of his body. Parts of his body was actually phasing and turning back. His ribs no longer hurting him, the pain only amplified his anger. A rumble started deep in his chest, rolling up his body until it escaped his mouth. Seth and Sam were the only ones that comprehended the true danger behind the frightening sound. "You want to take him from here. From the only person that has a chance of saving his life now ."

"I will not let him stay with these leeches!"

"Jake no!" Billy was too late however. Jake moved faster than anyone in the room expected. Sam managed to bring his arms in front of the kick, but could not hold his ground. He flew back taking out a chunk of the wall next to the front door. A renewed volley of barks came, harsher this time, enraged at their alpha being struck.

"Seth do not come outside. Emmett, Edward, leave this to me. This fight is mine." Jake didn't notice the looks he was getting, nor did he notice the change in his own voice. It had become bestial, barely recognizable as a voice. With one leap he was outside, standing in the yard facing over a dozen phased Quileutes. He could hear more, shifting around in the woods. Jake was relieved to see that neither Quil or Embry had come. Sam phased as he was getting up, snarling at Jake. A form darted from the side of the woods hitting Jake hard with its shoulder. The charge pushed Jake a few feet before he found his footing and stopped his slide. The wolf strained harder but Jake didn't move, he had made a promise. Grabbing the mongrels neck, he pivoted and threw the attacker back into the woods. "So thats how its going to be." Jake released his control, and felt his body change. The pacing around the woods and house stopped, Sam's collective pack mind registering just how big Jake was. None of them had seen Jake in his phased form for 20 years, and the newcomers to the pack had only seen old images of what the others knew. Jake could feel the fear in them now, the fear of facing the true Alpha.

"We will do whatever we can to stop them Jake." Sam imbued every ounce of Alpha command in his voice that he could, trying to shake Jake's resolve. "Just let us by and we will get Charlie out of there. Billy crawled over to the doorway peering around Seth's legs, trying to get a view of what was happening. Jake turned and look back at the house, seeing Billy, seeing the fear in his eyes.

"You won't get the chance." Jake's fur bristled and he charged.

Bella

She couldn't lose her dad. Not when she had the power to stop him from dying. Charlie had always been there for her. She knew that the day would come when Charlie would pass, but she didn't expect it this soon. She thought she had at least another 10 years. "Carlisle, we have to turn him." Only these thoughts ruled her powerful brain, the fight raging outside didn't even register. Bella heard Edwards steps coming to her side.

"We....can ask him, hes coming around."

Carlisle shook his head, "I don't know how long he will be conscious, there is little else I can do at this point. It is all up to him."

Bella looked down at her fathers face, his eyes fluttered until they finally opened. His expression confused at first, but then happiness took over. "Bells," he turned and saw Renesmee, "Nessie, my girls." His smile weakened and his eyes closed for a second.

"Hey grandpa."

"Nessie, I saw it. I saw it all." He reached up and patted her on the face.

"Hey dad. You gave everyone a scare. We all came to check on you." Bella propped his head up with a pillow from the couch so he could look around. She watched as her father saw everyone who was there. Bella moved a little to give Sue some room to kneel and hold his hand. She heard his heart falter for a second, and then continue beating.

"Oh Charlie," Sue managed to get out. His heart started to act erratically again, and Carlisle checked the machines he had Charlie hooked up too. Bella watched in horror as Carlisle looked up and shook his head at Edward.

"Dad I need you to pay close attention now okay?" Charlie nodded his head weakly in acknowledgement. " We can save you dad, but...you have to become one of us, a vampire. Charlie give us your permission to change you."

"Ahhh ha ha, so thats what you are now."

"Dad please we need your permission, just say yes and we can save you."

"Oh Bells," Charlie had started to cry himself, " I can't do that. That life just isn't for me. It is my time Bella. I'm old Bells, this is..." Bella didn't let him finish.

"No dad, you can't do this! I need you Charlie, Nessie needs you, Sue needs you!"

"Bella, thats just the way it is." Bella heard his heart getting weaker with every word, but his voice carried strength. "Sue, you filled a whole in my heart that I didn't know was there. You made these last 30 years some of the best I had." He pulled her down to him and gave her a kiss. Then he looked around the room. "Billy? Whats your old ass doing without your chair?"

"Forgot it at home Charlie."

"Can't leave you alone for a second. Wheres your boy?"

"I'm right here Chief Swan." Jake walked in covered in gashes. Blood streaming down his skin, but every second that passed, the cuts got visibly smaller.

"You let Billy out of the house without his chair? What the hell is your problem."

"Sorry Chief Swan, I was irresponsible."

"Yeah yeah, Jake you listen to me really carefully. You take care of Nessie or you are going to get my boot up your ass." Charlie's heart was beating just a few times a minuted now, and each word came slower than the last.

"Sure thing Charlie." He looked around the room again his eyes resting on everyone, his mouth barely moving. That was all it took though, everyone with super hearing could hear what he was saying clearly.

"Nessie?"

"Ya grandpa?"

"Could you show that to me one more time, just go a little bit slower."

"No problem grandpa." Bella watched as Renesmee placed her hands on Charlie's face one more time. She could tell by the sound of his heart that this was it. As the seconds ticked by, Charlie's smile grew wider with each image he was seeing. They all sat there for a while after his heart stopped, not wanting to move. Everyone that could, was crying, shaking with racks of sorrow. Seth held his mom. Renesmee curled up in Jake's arms, and Bella buried her face in Edwards chest. Bella hadn't felt pain like this in a long time, a pain that you can do nothing to get rid of it except give it time.

"Goodbye dad. I love you."

I'm not too sure about this chapter. In the end i went with the time skip, I think its better but....ya. Let me know what you think, do I need to put some more chaps before the time skip? Just continue with the story from here? I have already started on chapter 3 and its set in the future timeline, but it is easy enough to set it aside for now and work on present timeline chaps
