AN... I do not own Twilight, just playing with the characters.

AN 2... Bella is a 1st Lt. in the army making her a low ranking officer. A major is a superior officer to a Lt.

*A note to my readers, I do not reveal all so soon. It is best I torture you. :

I must look a mess and smell awful. I have had two showers this week but the last one was yesterday. My hair is tied back into a military bun but it all is sticking to my head with the sweat. I have my scrubs with me and that is it.

"Bella, I know you must feel gross. There is a bathroom up stairs two doors down from the left. There are towels."

I looked up at Carlisle "You wouldn't mind?"

He shook his head. I went to grab my toiletries and an old PT uniform but Esme stopped me. "Bella, let me. I am sure you have not had some clean clothes in a long time. We all will talk when you are cleaned up?"

I just headed to the shower which looked like it belonged out of a luxury hotel suite. I scrubbed my body as if I was preparing to go into surgery. I felt that gross. I wish I could be autoclaved because that would truly get the yuck off. I dried my hair and put it back into a bun. I just can not seem to be able to put my hair down anymore. Have not done it since I joined the army.

Emmett looked ready to rush me again into a bear hug but Rosalie stopped him.

"You did it once today though I would let her take you down a peg."

Emmett has a case of Peter Pan Syndrome (permanent overgrown kid).

That was when Rosalie said something that caught me off balance. "Samantha?"

I shook my head, "Rosalie, I am Bella. The only Samantha I even know is my grandmother."

Now everyone was confused except Rosalie and Emmett. Do they know something I do not.

"Bella, what was your grandmother's maiden name and did she have any siblings?"

I never would have pegged Rosalie as an interrogated but I indulged her.

"Her maiden name was Hale. She had two brothers Peter and James and an older sister named Rosalie who went missing right before her wedding. Right after she went missing, her wedding dress went missing."

Now everyone was staring at me including Rosalie. This is getting awkward.

"Bella, what do you know of your great aunt Rosalie?"

I never put it together. Rosalie the vampire looks a lot like aunt Rosalie.

"Aunt Rosalie was born the second out of four children. She was the most beautiful girl in Rochester and had all of the boys wanting to date her. She had a friend Vera who she was close to and was the last person who saw her before she went missing. Grandma felt like she was not dead. She said if I ever find her to give her a box that she had saved for her if she is ever to be found."

That was was when it all clicked "You are Aunt Rosalie? Grandma did say you were the ice queen."

I am not the same 18 year old that they left behind.

"Yes Bella, I am your aunt and I am not surprised Samantha said that. It was my ex fiance Royse who damn near killed me, he raped me.

The reason why I was mean to you was not because you are a human but more so of your involvement with Edward. I have known the vile acts he has been doing to women over the years and him being the golden boy, I was not sure I was going to be believed. I thought if I could make you fear and hate us, you would be safe from Edward.

It all went downhill after your birthday party and Edward framing Jasper. When Edward was kicked out with his whore, Emmett and I needed to get away for awhile.

That was when Emmett and I tracked down all of the family that was stolen from me. I know your great grandparents died of broken hearts and did not stop searching for me.

I know my brothers became police officers to get the monster off the street. I know I have a niece who is named after me.

I know my little sister rebelled and joined the army at 16 and became a hero which must have made your great grandparents furious.

I know my sister got to have a full life from what it sounds like with a surgeon with hand full children who all have military legacies. Did you know your great grandfather served in the army during world War 1?

I know my sister died a painful death and I could not be there to comfort her in the end. I know she was laid to rest in a veteran's cemetery that is beautiful. I went to visit her grave.

Then I found out about you Bella. I should have put it together that you are Samantha ' s granddaughter, you are her carbon copy. You went on to do so much in your short life. Can you please forgive me?"

I still do not trust the Cullen and will not let me get mentally too close to them. If they say I hold grudges, it is true. It takes me a very long time to move past one. I believe Rosalie, what she said is genuine. I do have a good bull shit meter and it is not going off.

"I forgive you Rosalie."

I think I melted the ice queen and had something better for her.

"Rose, is it possible you and Emmett can come with me to the base? I have the box grandma left for you Rosalie and it is quite large. You are my guests and it should not be an end problem getting you onto the base. I think I might need Emmett to left it, it is a time capsule in a box."

Rosalie was ready to jump but was brought back down by Jasper "Bella, let's get some food into you and maybe sleep. It is already late and I am sure the base has restrictions of what time you can bring civilians.."

"Jasper, I am fine. I can function on less sleep because now I am not going to be able to sleep because I already so excited."

"Bella, you have a direct order for 24 hours of r&r. You are taking it and it is my order too. You need rest. You look like someone has punched you in the face with your black circles,"

"What do you mean by orders? I know of your gift Jasper and please do not use it on me."

Everyone was snickering "Bella, I was a major in the civil war for the confederates."

Now I could yank his hot looking chain "Yes, but you are a civilian now."

Somehow my arguing with him is moot. Just have a meal and grab some shut eye. When I went into the guest bedroom which I was staying in which looked like a luxury hotel suite, I fell asleep. It might have been the waves of calm and drowsiness I was feeling with Jasper in the doorway.
