Letter From Edward..And Other Ramblings

 

November, 1938

I forgot to tell you (vampires really never forget, but I didn't write about if, as we move from place to place),
that we went to a place called Forks, Washington to check out the land and the opportunities that are there for us.  It is almost a constant rain, beautiful forests, and allot of game for us to drink from perfect for us to fit in. 

Esme and Carlisle checked out the land and just before purchasing the property we went hunting and ran into an Indian tribe called the Quileutes. We were just getting ready to feed and they came up and surrounded us.  The never would have been a match for us at that moment and they were lucky that Carlisle was a peaceful man and they were in no danger.  Suddenly a small pack of wolves circled us growling and we then knew we were in a little trouble.

Carlisle diffused the situation explaining who we were and how we fed.  The tribe existed to protect the tribe and the small town.  Carlisle sat down with the chief Epharaim Black and they were able to set up a treaty stating  that we will not hunt on their land and they will leave us be, as well as a few more points of what we can and cannot do that will keep peace between us.  Carlisle explained to us about the wolves and that they are the spirit warriors of the tribe whom are awakened whenever vampires are near or on their land.  He also explained how a vampire and his mate decimated his tribe years ago.  Carlisle being Carlisle took this to heart as the story went on.  He was taking on the responsibility of what happened oh so long ago.  Epharaim Black was so interested in us vampires and how we lived and mingled with the humans.  It was not natural he said, and was really taken aback when he found out that Carlisle was a doctor and worked in hospitals.  We also agreed to try to keep the town area of vampires as the tribe did.

Esme and Carlisle purchased acreage in forks with the intention of building a home there.  The area was beautiful.our land bordered the tribe land all the way to the Canadian border, which was on their side.  It had beautiful waterfalls, streams, ponds, a lake, and mountains to climb and keep me busy and happy.  Esme couldn't wait to start planning the home and gardens.  This brought real joy to her, you could see it in her eyes and smile.

Rosalie didn't care where we moved just as long as there were shopping areas within a reasonable running distance for her.

We returned to Fall River just in case Edward was trying to reach us, and I swear he could read minds from a thousand miles away.

There was a letter waiting for us from Edward.  It read:

Dear Carlisle and family,

I am in London right now and have followed what is happening here.  It seems that war is imminent for us, and it will be interesting to see what it will take to get us into it.  This leader that everyone is worried about is sly and devious.  He shakes your hand to form an alliance with you today, just to break it tomorrow.  He gives out a false sense of security before he invades and acquires your country to be part of the Axis movement.  It seems he wants to take everything over.  Let us hope that history repeats itself as the Roman Empire went to far to fast actually weakening themselves rather than becoming stronger.  I don't know right now how this is going to play out.

I plan on trying to infiltrate their army and see what is actually happening going in.  There are many stories going around, and I want to know if they are true or not.  If they are I will feel inclined to help out the allied countries.

You may not hear from me for awhile.  I am sorry for the pain I am causing you and the family.  Please, I need to do what I need to do.  I having a feeling that this man whose name is Adolf Hitler maybe something more than what he is pretending to be. 

You can write me at this address (address written).

 I am so sorry Carlisle.  I never wanted to hurt you and Esme, but I feel compelled to see this through.   I know you don't agree with this basic life Carlisle, but I need to do what I need to do.

Tell Emmett and Rosalie I said hi, and I will be getting a hold of all of you as I find out more and more answers to all my questions. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday, and I hope to be home soon.  I am really starting to miss home.

Edward

Carlisle and Esme were a little deflated when they read this.  All Carlisle had to say was "He has to do, what he has to do".  Esme stood silent, and Edward wasn't there to hear her thoughts.  Rosalie just answered, "How could he be so selfish to separate our family like this".  Luckily Edward wasn't around to hear me think I know eventually I will have to join him.

Edward Points The Way

July, 1938,

It has been over a year since I have written as nothing interesting has happened, but that changed today.  We had heard from Edward intermittently the past few months.  He has been working in Chicago for some time now, and now has an address we can contact him at.  Carlisle asked Edward to get a phone so we can be in contact easier but he is hesitant to do so, but Carlisle gave him our number anyway.  It is very difficult to use a phone now as usually they are located on the wall at the local food store.  Very rarely do you find them at work or in a home.  Luckily for us we can afford one, as this way we are less to be overheard.  We still have be careful as most calls need to go through a live operator. To call across the country you need several different operators in distant cities to connect you to your party.  Many of them love to listen to other peoples conversations and either they would think we were crazy or they will learn of our existence which is a crime within the vampire laws.  (There are laws for us, but I will explain about those at a later date.)  Anyway that's why  it came as a big surprise when i answered the phone today that it was Edward.

I was here alone due to Carlisle being at the hospital,(did I ever mention he is a doctor), and my Rosalie was with Esme out shopping for new clothes.  When the phone rang it actually startled me, as it was so quiet here and it never rings.  I was so surprised and happy it was Edward as it gave me the opportunity to ask him to come home.  Edward, journal, made it under no uncertain terms was he going to come home with so much good he must do to help the human population.  He also told me that he resented Carlisle's and his way of life and how he must embrace the killer side of him, needing to feel it then learn how to control it.  He made me see for the first time what my true nature might be.

I asked him what he was going to do next and he told me of a man over in Germany that has manipulated his way into having almost ultimate power, and the citizens have no clue as to the damage this man is doing not only to them but to the rest of the world.  Word has it that he has started to make rules about who should live, who should be eliminated and who should be sterilized.  He also heard about the forced labor that they must do to survive.   Finally he heard that concentration camps have been built and are starting to be filled with the Jewish race, as well as other people he considers undesirable; as people of certain religious affiliations, both mental patients, and disabled either physically or mentally.  He has also made laws regarding interracial actions between  citizens.  He has been given so much power that those living over in or near Germany foresee a major war beginning to stew.  He said he doesn't exactly know what is going on there, but he is determined to find out.  Edward is going to go to Europe to see for himself what is going on.  He feels that maybe these people are feeling very restricted now, just as he feels with Carlisle expecting him not to be his true nature.

We discussed this for awhile, and I can see Edwards' point on this, as sometimes I feel the reins holding me back from something that my nature demands of me.  Mainly I work through these urges for Carlisle, Esme, and especially for my Rosalie.  Sometimes I feel like I am going to explode and eat the whole town.  I know I have had slip ups, and have always been forgiven, but I am starting to become jealous with Edward.

I told Edward to be careful and to send me a telegram personally to tell me exactly what is going on, and to send Carlisle his that he will know what is going on, but not enough to want him to come to you.  I told him I will look forward to the telegram.

We hung up just as everyone arrived home.  I told them exactly what Edward said to me, and it seems he will be headed towards Germany at anytime now.  I told them he will be telegraphing us after he is there for awhile.  I did not tell Carlisle about his resentment toward him and his true nature.  I think it is hard enough for Carlisle to deal with what is happening now, let alone that he is the cause of it.

I didn't tell them about the special telegram he will send me.  I don't know why I did that let alone try to understand what was going on inside of me some inner turmoil has started and I feel like a rat hiding anything from any of my family. I didn't know then about the conflict that was beginning to rage inside of me.  I am so glad the mind reader is not here, as I don't understand my thoughts myself yet, let alone someone is privy to them would drive me insane.

Well my Rose would like to model her new clothes and I need to seem normal to her.  As it is now, my internal self is starting to rethink who I am and what I am.
