Chapter 13: The Truth Comes Out

Renesmee's POV

I watched for various reactions from all members of my family and my boyfriend. None of them moved or said anything for awhile.

Then all just suddenly burst out in laughter. Cleary they thought I must be joking. I remained silent as a way to let them know that I was serious.

"Half vampire? Nice one Vanessa" Tyler said.

"Yeah, really funny. You really had us going there for a minute" Ryan said.

Their laughing began to die down when they realized that I wasn't laughing with them.

"Why aren't you laughing?" mom asked.

"Because I wasn't joking. It's all true. I really am half vampire. My vampire traits are beginning to resurface after 12 years of being dormant" I said.

"Are you okay? Did you hit your head honey?" dad asked.

"I'm telling you the truth" I said.

The Cullens went back in after that.

"She's telling the truth" Carlisle said.

"How can we possibly believe something that is so absurd" mom said. "and how do are you so sure that she's telling the truth?"

"Think about it. The moment Tyler stepped on that glass and he started bleeding she attacked him. The smell of blood is just too tempting to resist sometimes. I know this because we are all vampires. Except Jacob who is a shape shifter" Carlisle explained.

My family just started laughing again. I didn't understand how this was so hard for them to accept. I did attack Tyler and drink his blood. They were afraid of me. Why didn't they see me for what I really am?

Suddenly Jacob phased into his wolf self. They all stumbled back in fear.

"Whhatt iss that?" stuttered Tyler.

"It's Jacob. Carlisle already told you that he is a shape shifter. I think Jacob just wanted to prove to you all once and for all that we are all telling the truth" I said.

"He did" Edward confirmed.

They all stared at Jacob's massive form in fear for few moments before turning towards me and the rest of my vampire family.

"Okay we'll listen to your story" mom said.

"as I said I'm half vampire. Edward and Bella are my biological parents. My mom was still human when she conceived me" I began to explain. "she nearly died when she gave birth to me. I grew extremely fast and for awhile it seemed like I would only have a few years of life. Everything was peaceful for awhile until aunt Alice got a vision of impending doom-" I was stopped by the confused looks of my family.

"Some of get extra powers. Alice can see the future and I can read minds" Edward explained.

"Oh, okay" Tyler said.

"anyways. She got a vision of the Volturi, our closest thing to royalty, coming to destroy us because they thought I was an immortal child which are illegal. We gathered witnesses to explain that I was not an immortal. When the day came a big battle broke out. The Volturi thought that they had succeeded in killing me. Everyone thought that I was dead but really I was just unconscious for a few hours. When I woke up I had every intention of going back home. I was almost there when a voice stopped me I-" I was interrupted again by growls that erupted from Edward and Bella.

My human family looked scared of them for a moment.

"Sorry, it's just this part of the story is really hard for us. It gets us angry that we lost our daughter over this" Bella said.

"I was about to go in when I heard a family friend, Tanya, saying that I was better off dead. She blamed me for her sister getting killed. She said that it was might fault for even existing. She said that as long as I was alive they would have all been in danger. I left after that because she was right. I brought danger to everyone-" I was interrupted by my vampire father this time.

"Renesmee how many times must we explain that none of this was your fault? You did not ask for any of this. All we were doing was protecting you. We would do anything for you!" his voice getting louder and louder towards the end of his lecture.

"He's right. How can you blame yourself for what happened? It's not your fault for what happened. This Tanya was stupid" mom said.

"Okay, well maybe you're all right. Well after that I left. I was walking through the forest when I met a witch named Brenna. I asked her to turn me human and she did. She guaranteed the spell could not be broken unless I ever met another vampire. If the spell ever broke my vampire side would be unleashed again, only containing a hybrid's side has consequences. If it ever broke I would change so much that I would be able to pass as a full vampire. So she put me up for adoption and I had my named changed to Vanessa. For 12 years I've kept this secret and I was able to live successfully among humans until now. When my family here moved in town they unknowingly broke the spell" I explained.

"That's why you are changing?" Tyler asked.

"Yes, only problem is that I have no idea just how fast I will change" I said.

I could tell that this was starting to become information overload for them. I knew they would all need time to process the information we had all just thrown at them. The best thing would be to let the subject go for now until we can figure out where to go from here. There was just one more thing that I had to tell them.

"There's just one more thing that you need to know. Don't ever tell anyone about the existence of our existence. The Volturi are obsessed with keeping our world a secret. Humans are not allowed to know about us. Knowing this secret puts you in danger" I said.

Now they all looked very alarmed by what I had said.

"What happens if they find out that we know?" dad asked.

"Only two options. You become a vampire or you're silenced permanently. That's why I never told you before" I said.

Silence, there was nothing but pure silence. Wow, talk about a real conversation stopper.

The following days seemed to drag by as I remained in the hospital. I was to remain in the hospital for two weeks. I was getting so sick of being in this hospital bed. It didn't make matters any better that I was paralyzed from the waist down. Being unable to move sucked big time.

"Why did you bring all these?!" I shouted to my brother. I had asked him to bring some of my favorite books, and my laptop to help me pass the time. He brought all seven of my Harry Potter books, all three of my Hunger Games books, all four of my Hush Hush books, and my Mortal Instruments book. I'm a massive book nerd and just about everyone knows it, but my brother's an idiot if he thinks I can read all of these in a week.

"You told me to bring you your favorite books. So here they are" he said.

"Tyler, I'm only going to be here for a week! A week!" I can't possibly read all of these books in a week!" I said.

"Okay, okay. Sheesh!" he said. He left after that because he had to go to school. I shuddered at the amount of work that I'm going to have to make up when I go back to school.

I picked up my Mortal Instruments book and started reading it. I was only a few chapters into this book and I already loved it.

After about an hour I put the book down and turned on my laptop. I was itching to write. I had several stories on fanfiction. net that really needed to be updated. I decided to start writing before my readers start blackmailing me. Seriously, some people can get pretty vicious on this site sometimes.
