AN: Okay… so I know that I haven't updated in a while, but I had school ending with all of the finals and major writers block among other things. And on top of it all I have 3 siblings so computer time has gone down… anyways I should hurry up and type before someone comes to take the computer from me.

Disclaimer: I own Stephanie and the idea. All else I do not own.

Chapter 6: Tell Your Part

School passed slowly. Though it didn't seem possible, gym (the class that I had with Alice) was slower than the rest. As the final bell rand, Alice and I changed quickly into our regular clothes and walked out to the parking lot.

Stephanie was already waiting by my car. Though my blue Mercedes was no flashier than the Cullen's silver Volvo, a crowd was slowly beginning to form around my car. I wove my way through the star struck boys easily, Alice following behind me. Io was shocked when Alice climbed into the backseat.

"You need directions," Alice stated simply. Damn, I had really wanted to talk to Steph… guess that would have to wait. It was surprisingly difficult to keep myself focused while my clueless twin was chatting happily from the backseat.

I was grateful when we pulled up to the Cullen's large white house. After all, I could only be with my sister for so long when she didn't even know me.

Alice dragged both Stephanie and I into the house since her siblings had beat us here. The whole family was seated quietly in the living room for our arrival.

"Bella, Stephanie, this is Carlisle and this is Esme," Alice said, quickly introducing us to the last 2 members. After some quick greetings, Steph and I sat in the last empty sofa while Alice went to sit in Jasper's lap.

At least she was happy in this life I thought idly. "So what are your stories?" Alice asked.

I looked to Stephanie, silently telling her to go first. Hers was shorter and a lot less complicated than my own. Stephanie told of her abusive father and of the abuse she suffered. She also to them about how I had found her bleeding to death after had attacked her with a knife. With her story finished, the Cullens all turned to me.

I shifted uncomfortably. I doubted that the Cullens would accept my story of the twin sister that I had lost and then found right here in the room. "Nobody here would believe me," I said finally. "It involves Alice."

Alice perked up immediately. "You know my past?" She asked excitedly.

I nodded. "You aren't going to believe it though. None of you would."

Alice shook her head. "I trust you Bella. Please tell us." I looked towards Stephanie, but she just shrugged. Sighing, I turned back towards my twin.

"I was born in Mississippi near Biloxi in 1907. In 1924 my mother decided that my twin and I were crazy because of our visions. A vampire from the asylum came and took my twin and me away from our younger sister, Cynthia. I begged my mother to think of what she was doing, but she said that we no longer existed.

"My sister and I spent over a year in that wretched asylum. Then the old vampire came back, saying that he had to save us. He changed us to save us from a tracker that was after both my sister and I.

"After 2 days of the change, the tracker found where we were hidden and killed the vampire that had 'saved' us. I passed out and they took me away, leaving my sister alone in the cabin."

I stopped for a moment to take a deep breath. "When I regained consciousness, the tracker and his mate were staring at me. I ran…" I continued on with my story, stopping only when I got to the part of seeing them all at lunch. Alice was still confused.

"What does that have to do with me?" She asked, curious.

I looked up and met her gaze. "My twin's name was Mary Alice Brandon, know as Alice." Everybody's jaws dropped except for Stephanie's. It was time to have the moment of truth. Would they accept me?
