Charlie had gotten reports of suspicious animal carcasses found in the woods by hunters. His immediate thought was Jacob...after all he was a wolf. Before going down to La Push he decided to search the area with a few patrol officers to see if it was just a larger animal. Armed with his shot gun as he made his way through the forest area.

Bella was relieved that two days ago, Renee came back to visit their cottage and they were able to discuss everything. It went as well as could be expected. Renee still in the dark of their secret, but close to discovering more holes in the cover stories she told. Today her mother was leaving to head back to Florida and urged Bella to come for a visit soon. She agreed.
Smiling up at Edward as she sat against his chest, watching Renesmee do cartwheels in the meadow. The flowers were beginning to bloom. Spring was right around the corner. She could smell the pollen, the soft lavender smell of the flowers, the bark from the trees, the soil of the earth. "How about a hunt?" She suggested. Renesmee had become quite a skilled hunter, just like Bella had. She enjoyed the thrill of it.

It seemed that the fates had been smiling down at them, the moment Bella had walked into his life they were glorious enough to grant him something that he had long ago lost forgotten. A family that he could call his own. He could hear Renesmee's laughter from the meadow as he watched her do cartwheels, something that she had perfected quite well.
Spring was in the air as it circulated them all with pollen, he could smell his favorite scent, apart from Bella's and their daughter's, it was lavender. It was a scent that had reminded him vividly of his human mother, a flower that she always had in their home as he grew up as a child.
As Bella leaned into his chest, he leaned back into his still frame as she suggested a hunt. It had been a few weeks now since he had fed and now was the right time for him too hunt, he always liked too be prepared for any surprise that always seemed to sneak up on them. If it wasn't for Alice and her visions they would not have known about Renee's visit and they would have been unprepared to have Bella ready.
"Yes....I think that is a good idea....I fancy a mountain lion" he chuckled.
He stood from where he sat, pulling Bella into his arms and his lips gently touched hers savoring her intoxicating scent, drinking in all that she had too offer his lips. He be-grudgingly pulled his lips from hers and watched as she no longer became breathless that she once had.
"Let's go get Renesmee"
He took her hand into his own and began leading the way to find Renesmee, calling out after her as they dawned closer to her echoing laughter.
"Renesmee....Renesmee....*she chuckled as she came running towards him and wrapped her small arms around his own waist*
"Yes daddy?" she gleamed up at him, he had never felt such proudness at that moment.
"Would you like to hunt?"
She nodded wildly as she began looking at Bella with her bright shining eyes as she turned around and began skipping further in the meadow, he chuckled as they began to follow.

Charlie slowly walked through the forest as leaves and small twigs snapped and cracked under his weight. With his rifle in hand as he held it in position to shoot at the drop of a hat, he and the others continued on. "Chief? How about we split up, cover more ground?" He nodded and split the groups into two, going off alone by himself. He had his radio and lots of ammo if needed.
Now it was just to wait to see what he'd find.

Alice's face blanks as she begins to see spotty pieces of a decision. Watching Bella and Edward as they hunt, she turns to see Charlie hunting in the forest for what they suspect to be either a bear or large Mountain Lion, several hikers have found animal carcasses from a large animal. She pulls out of the vision long enough to try and call Edward on his cell phone. Wavering back and forth between the vision and trying to concentrate on speaking with Edward, he stops to answer, as she watches Bella take down the large cat. "Edward, Charlie knows. I'll explain, just get Bella back to the house, now!" Dropping the phone she watches Charlie looking through the scope of his rifle, finally spotting the mountain lion, he then sees what to his mind is a blur of dark fur. Shaking his head he looks again and watches a beautiful young woman with dark shining hair bent over the great cat that no longer is moving. Bella finishes, turns and stands in a fluid moment of grace, as Charlie steps back in horror. Bella stands proudly before Edward, her lips coated with blood and just a few drops that escaped down the side of her lip, he watches as Edward gently removes it with his thumb tasting it, before tasting Bella's lips. With the way it came in and out, she assumed Renesmee was with them. After seeing the entire scene unfold before his eyes, he recalls Jacob's 'phasing' before him and the story he told, it clicks as Charlie whispers "Vampire? Impossible!"

Bella grinned as she took his hand, following Renesmee into the forest area, hearing her giggle with delight. She was thrilled when they let her go off on her own, feeling independent. She kissed Edwards lips as she took off due east. Stopping in her tracks at a sense of someone watching. Staring into the thick vegetation, she saw no one there...but felt eyes on her. She shook her head, "Paranoid much?" mumbling to herself.
A large feral growl escaped a lions mouth and she knew Edward had found his meal. The large cats in the area were highly populated, and she was thankful since they were tasty. She preferred meat eaters. They tasted more...human, even though she'd never had human blood except for while she was pregnant. The taste was a blur. Slowly she watched as the lion bit into its prey. It was mealtime, for the meal. A smile crossed her lips.
She sprung and gracefully attacked it's neck, rendering it immobile. As she fed from the animal, draining it of its blood she began to feel full. Lately it didn't take as much to satisfy the burn in her throat. Standing proud next to the dead animal as Renesmee fluttered by her side, a smile on her face. She could hear Edward approaching as she smiled.

Renesmee's laughter echoed among the trees as the humble wildlife sprung into action as they began to speed through the thickness of the large trees and bushes. They stopped abruptly as they heard than Renesmee had gone of a little more to the east as she had tracked an elk as it fed on the vegetation. To his left by a small pool of water than formed from the trickling river than dipped into a small rock gathering that created a small pond, he could hear a mountain lion lap up the water.
He turned towards Bella and smiled as he took off to hunt the hunter. He began approaching the mountain lion slowly as he crouched down to his knees, his feet moving slowly along the soft dirt, his feet sinking into the dry patches of grass that were slowly coming to life once again from the deeming winter that had taken their sunlight, spring now approaching meant more lions would be in the area.
The lion continued to lap and quench his thirst from the pooling pond as Edward stood meters from his prey, the balls heels of the ground onto his toes, his fists clenched together in attack mode. As he was about to pounce, the loud ringing from his cell phone began to reach its pitch volume.
The lion lifted his head from the water and let out a fierce some growl as its four legs began speeding off to the west, he let out a groan of displeasure as he pulled his cell from his back pocket, looking at the screen it flashed Alice. He flipped the cell phone open and raised it to his ear.
"What is it Alice? I just lost a lion so this better be good!"
With anger and frustration in his voice soon turned to disbelief and angst as he listen intensively to what she had to say.
"Are you sure?.........When?"
He instantly flipped his cell phone closed and forced it back into his pocket and began to speed of further east to where he could hear Bella feeding on another large mountain lion. He also heard Renesmee giggle as she ran towards Bella as clean as a whistle as she had hunted.
He began approaching faster towards them both, knowing that Bella nor their family could not be discovered. He saw Bella turn to face him as Renesmee gripped tightly onto her hand, a smile crept across Bella's face as she saw him emerge from the thick trees and stop instantly in front of them.
"We need to go now!"
Just beyond them he could hear the sound of rustling leaves and a gasp of breath and his head turned and there among the hidden bushes was a face that they knew had discovered them all.

He stood there looking through the scope of his rifle as he heard a large rustle in the trees. Scanning the area as he continued to walk. Something moved fast as he frantically scanned. He saw brown hair flowing in the breeze, a female hunched over what looked to be an animal. Just as he was about to shout for her to move away quickly, her face looked up and he knew her. Trickles of blood on her mouth as the large cat lay dead at her feet.
A familiar giggle...his....daughter....and Renesmee....what....
His brows furrowed as he watched the scene from a distance. Edward came up to where they were but it was like a blur. Charlie had seen enough...he began to back away nervously as he stumbled and his eyes met Edwards. Fear froze him in place as he watched Edward take Bella's hand and leave the area. Renesmee in tow.
"Vampire? Impossible!"

She stood there proudly as Edward approached. His face hardened and serious as he said, "We need to go now!" His eyes looked into the forest and then grabbed her hand. Bella held Renesmee's hand as she sped off with Edward. "Edward, what's going on?" They began to run faster. Bella picked Renesmee up and hoisted her on her back as she ran. Within minutes they were at the main house.
"Edward! What is it! What's happened?! Talk to me!" He opened the door and called for Alice. She fluttered down, and they seemed to have a silent conversation. "Renesmee, love...go find grandma Esme." She nodded and went off. "What is it?! Will SOME one tell me what's happening?!"

"Jasper, please keep them calm love." She smiled at him before facing them, explaining "Charlie's a sharp man, he understands and is excepting to a point. He knows the difference between evil and good. He knows in his heart that there is nothing but good in this house, in his daughter and granddaughter. He saw the truth in that when Bella took down the cat. He knows without a doubt that we could NOT have been the ones to hurt the hikers, there are not enough deaths to account. The large animal populations has been kept in check. Charlie has an analytical mind." Turning to Bella "He is curious, he will have questions, he deserves the answers, but we'll have to be careful." Seeing worried faces about the room she continues "Yes, we could leave, but it wouldn't change the fact that they both know, and leaving now would only hurt them, Jacob and Renesmee." More questions about the Volturi were muttered in the room. She shook her head. "I've been watching Aro's decisions...everything is safe."
After Renesmee left the room, her clear vision allowed her to see Charlie decided to come today, to confront them. "He's coming...you just need to take it slow. Trust me. Jasper will calm him." She looked at Jasper and nodded.

As he continued to watch through the clustered bushes his eyes met Charlies, his own eyes paralyzed with fear as he could see him slowly back off further into the bushes. He grabbed Bella's hand as she took hold of Renesmee's and began speeding through the trees as she continued to protest what was wrong.
He could hear the worrying whimper come from Nessie's lips as he encouraged them to run faster until they broke through the trees and the main house as they ascended the stair and open the door as he called for Alice.
"Renesmee, love...go find grandma Esme." She nodded and went off. "What is it?! Will SOME one tell me what's happening?!"
~Between Alice and Edward - Silent Conversation~
"Edward.....what's wrong?" she questioned.
"Charlie....He knows....I wasn't able to stop him"
He had kept his back turned to Bella as he heard her asking what was wrong, but he needed a second to think.
"Everything will be alright Edward. Trust me....He is coming today. He wants to see you and Bella"
"Can you take care of Renesmee. I need to talk with Bella"
"Of course *she nodded and began to make her way up the large staircase*
He turned towards Bella with his face as still as stone as she displayed worry and wonder across her beautiful face.
"For the last time Edward...."What is it?! Will SOME one tell me what's happening?!"
He took a step towards Bella, trying to find the right words to use to not worry her, and not to show his worry.
"Its Charlie.....He saw you....He saw us.....Hunting"
Bella tried to let this new knowledge sink in as she began to pace back and forth.
"What do you mean he saw us...me?......Edward!"
"Alice had a vision....I didn't make it in time.....Charlie knows.......He knows what we are Bella" his voice becoming soft.
"Oh my god....What are we going too do Edward?"
He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead.
"We will figure it out....Trust me Bella"

Her stomach felt as if it had fell out of her body. She felt nauseous, seeing the black cloaks as they killed Charlie for knowing. Her worst fear coming true. She held onto him with her head on his chest as a million thoughts raced in her mind. They had to leave right now...but Alice said it would hurt Renesmee and Jacob...Jacob would have to come too. But she couldn't make him leave his pack.
Suddenly she heard the banging on the door and heard her father's voice. "Bella...we need to talk!" Fear crossed her face as she looked at Edward, unsure of what to do. She wasn't wearing the contacts and her eyes were a light reddish color.

As he jumped out his cruiser, he stopped to look into the wooded area. He felt like someone was watching him. Only no one was there.....As he got to the door, he knocked. "Bella...just...open the door. I have to talk to you." He continued to speak. He knew that they were there. Charlie was still scared of what he'd seen, but he had to know the truth...he had to know why his daughter was.....he couldn't even say the words.
The door opened as Edward stood there. "You gonna tell me what you did to my daughter?! The truth this time!"

He heard as Charlie's cruiser pulled up in the drive way and his foot steps stomp on the steps towards the front door.
"Bella...just...open the door. I have to talk to you."
He could see the shocked look on her face as she remained still with fear as her eyes searched his own. He nodded towards Bella and he walked towards the door and opened it. Charlie stormed his way into the main house.
"You gonna tell me what you did to my daughter?! The truth this time!"
As he closed the door behind Charlie, he felt an arm turn him around and force him up against the wooden door as it pressed against his chest and Charlie used what force that a human had to hold him there, knowing that he could escape very easily from his grasp. He heard Bella's pleas as she tried to stop her father.
"Charlie....why don't we take this upstairs?"

"NO!! You're gonna tell me what the hell is going on?! What are you?!" Charlie demanded as he pushed Edward up against the wall. Bella pleading with him to stop. Edward's body was rock hard, cold and he could tell he was more than human up close. "Bella, stay out of this! I want him to tell me the truth."
He could deal with a special child like Nessie...he could deal with Jacob being a werewolf...he could deal with his daughter looking different...but a VAMPIRE?! That meant she was....dead. Charlie was at a loss for anything as he searched Edward's eyes.
