Mysteries Unravelling

Once outside, Alex gave himself a look over and nodded in satisfaction.

'I don't look like a homeless guy anymore' Alex thought pleased with himself.

"Time to get back home and lounge around for the rest of the day" Alex mumbled and turned to look back at the place once more.

'I'll come back another day, this should have made it look like he was killed by a rival gang hopefully, and that way they should start fighting each other. And then slowly but surely I'll get rid of them all' Alex thought as he walked towards the front road.

'I thought about it a lot, what should I do with my powers in the end the best way to help people is to do this.' Alex thought and nodded, as he moved along the road however he did accept one fact inside of his head.

'While I'm doing this for the good of society, I'm also selfish if I couldn't profit or gain anything from this then I would have most likely never done it' 

Alex continued backtracking his steps until he was outside of Port Angels, back to the place where he had stood and stared at the city a few hours ago.

"All right, let's not ruin my shoes this time" Alex mumbled annoyed at how his pair of shoes had become scrap.

Taking his shoes off, Alex held them with his hands and started running as he transformed mid-run.

His speed increased and quickly he was back to the maximum of what he could go at on the grass bed of the forest.

Just like last time, it only took about twelve minutes and he was back at where he had parked his orange truck.

'I wanted it to appear as if I was going somewhere farther by taking the truck and hoping it would cause less suspicion but it can clearly be seen from the road, it was just a dumb idea. At least I won't do it again.' Alex thought as he de-transformed and wore his shoes once more.

Hopping into the truck, Alex reversed back into the road and started driving towards the Swan household.

He arrived quickly, parked the truck in front of the garage, and locked it as he headed inside the house.

"I'm back!" Alex said once he heard that the TV was on.

"Welcome back son" Charlie answered from the living room couch as he turned to stare at Alex who was at the doorstep, taking his shoes off.

"Hey Dad, what's up," Alex said as he came into the living room and sat next to Charlie.

"Nothing much, just watching the news. Did you have fun out? And thanks for the post-it note, it eases my mind a lot when you at least tell me you're going out" Charlie said as he nodded towards Alex with a soft smile.

"No problem Dad, I just went out because I didn't have anything to do and was bored," Alex said as he watched the news together with Charlie.

"Why didn't you go with Bella to La Push then?" Charlie asked as he turned his head to face Alex, his expression questioning.

Alex shook his head and told Charlie.

"Didn't really want to talk with others today, sometimes you just want some alone time you know?" 

"Oh, do you want me to uh?" Charlie started immediately but was stopped by Alex holding his hand up.

"The people I want a break from aren't you Charlie, you're my dad, I could never get enough of talking with you," Alex said as he gave a grin to Charlie.

Charlie's expression seemed to almost light up as he nodded though the corners of his mouth were clearly raised.

'Charlie for dad of the year, he should get an Oscar honestly.' Alex thought as he stared at the man for a moment and then turned to watch the news.

The two watched the news together, sometimes commenting to each other about them and giving their own takes.

Later they ate a pizza that Charlie ordered and watched a movie on the couch.

'This day was awesome' Alex thought to himself as he watched the sunset from the window of his room.

'It's nice just hanging out with Charlie once in a while and with how things are going to be in the future, I'll have even less of a chance.' Alex thought as his smile turned flat.

'What will I do about Charlie later on, I can't tell him I and Bella are or will be vampires in her case. And we will have to leave him in a few years, watching your kids never grow up really isn't really normal. Bella's case could even be considered worse than mine. I'll have to use daze on him somehow to make it so that he doesn't grieve over our disappearances and I also have to give him money at least so he wouldn't have to work another day in his life' Alex thought as he nodded his head.

'I'll have to funnel all the money I gather from the gangs into investments, there's a lot of business that will blow up in the future so the ways I could earn money are basically limitless' 

Hearing a car sound, Alex focused on his hearing.

'It's Bella huh, I wonder how she will feel when she learns about the cold ones tonight,' Alex thought as he heard the footsteps heading for the front door.

Heading downstairs, Alex saw Bella who had already gotten inside while he came down the stairs.

"Hey, how did the beach trip go?" Alex asked as he gave her a small wave.

"It was nice, we also met Jacob and some of the boys of the reservation," Bella said as she headed towards the kitchen.

"Me and Charlie left you some pizza in case you wanted to eat something after you came back," Alex said as he pointed to the box on the dinner table.

Bella nodded as she gave a small mumbled thanks.

"Well, you seem deep in thought, I can listen if you want?" Alex said as he dragged a chair and sat.

"No, it's fine I'm just thinking about some dumb stuff" Bella replied as she ate a slice of pizza.

"Well alright then, I'll be going to sleep if you need anything just come and tell me"

Alex said as he stood up and turned to go up the stairs only to be stopped by Bella's voice.

"Wait Alex, there's something I actually want to ask," Bella said as she faced Alex's back.

Turning around Alex faced Bella and nodded, telling her to continue on.

"I heard about this legend from Jacob, do you know anything about the legends of their people?" Bella asked as she faced Alex.

Nodding his head, Alex decided to simply tell her how to learn more about them.

"Yeah, there's this website they have that Sam told me about, it's about the Quileute legends, you can check it out on your pc. Just search Quileute Legends and you should be able to find it. That's about all I know about them." Alex replied.

"Thanks, Alex," Bella said as she nodded her head.

"No problem, I'll be going now then if nothing else. Goodnight" Alex said and turned around once more.

"Goodnight"
