and AUNT'S only shows possession, it doesn't say AUNT IS.

Either, though it's usually possessive.

My aunt's car is in the garage. (possessive)
My aunt's in the kitchen. (contraction, "aunt is")

Addendum: "aunts'" would apply only to more than one aunt possessing something.

My aunts' husbands are Uncle Jimmy and Uncle Ray.
My aunts' mother is my grandmother. My grandmother had two daughters and a son, my father. I have two aunts on my father's side. I am my aunts' niece (or nephew).

The singular possessive for "Aunt is" is "Aunt's".
