Ki was looking around school for Bella and couldn't find her. Ki turned to find Kalia at her locker grabbing her books. Ki walked up to her and tapped her shoulder, Kalia turns and smiles.

"Hey, Ki, what's up?"

"Have you -" He began taking a deep breath. "Have you seen Bella?"

Kalia began to think and shook her head. "No, I haven't sorry. Has she gone missing or something?"

Ki sighs. "I'm not really sure, thank you though." And with that he quickly walks off. Kalia watches him round the corner, and raises a brow. She shook her head with a smile and shut her locker and walked to class.

Said vampire walks around trying to hear her, but couldn't. He checked the roof, he checked the bathrooms, he checked everywhere around the school. Ki quickly left and checked the flower shop and didn't see her. He pulled his phone out and called Lea.

"Yo, Ki, what's up?"

"Is Bella home with you guys? I can't find her anywhere."

"No, I haven't seen her at all since she left for school this morning. I'll keep an eye out for her and we'll tell Ven if we can't find her."

Ki nods and hangs up the phone and then calls Bella, but it went straight to voicemail. Ki became worried, and then hung up the phone and quickly rushed off.

Bella stayed near the beach in Sunset Terrace, the tears in her eyes were evident and the stains on her cheek were visible. Letting out a quiet sigh, she looked out into the ocean seeing the sun beam down on it. Looking back hearing someone coming towards her, she saw Sora walking towards her.

"Hey..." She began and looks back at the ocean. "What are you doing over here?"

"I saw someone over here and I wanted to know who it was." Sora smiles sitting down next to her. "You okay?"

Bella snorts with a giggle. "I guess so, just been... dealing with a lot of feelings." She answered with a sigh. "I don't know how to begin to explain..."

Sora laughs a looks at the ocean with her. "Well, why don't you try."

Bella sighs a little bit once more looking away from him. She began telling him about her brother and how he died from a car accident almost six months ago. Sora was listening intently to everything she was saying, but he was wondering if she knew everything she was saying was a lie and her brother didn't die from an accident? After she was done, she looks at him and he was thinking about things.

"That's tragic, I'm so sorry about everything that happened." Sora began to speak. "What are you doing over here away from home?"

"The ocean, weirdly enough, calms me down and gets me to think. Either this or being at the clock tower." Bella explained. "I just couldn't deal with the whole thing back home. And the fact that the bully at my school keeps emotionally attacking me..."

Sora frowns and touches her shoulder. Making Bella look at him once more. And she smiled at him a little bit standing up. "I'm sorry to cut this short, but I'm pretty sure my boyfriend and my friends are wondering where I'm at."

She quickly waves and ran off quickly. Sora watches her and continues to frown. "Do you believe her brother died from that, Riku?"

"Not a chance, Sora." Riku responded walking from the corner watching her get on the train to go back to Twilight Town. "Her brother was definitely..."

Sora nods and stands up looking at him. "What are we going to do?"

Riku scoffs and shrugs. "Keep an eye on her, something about her is really uneasy."

Sora nods and sighs quietly.

When Bella got back to Twilight Town, she rode the Tram to her house and when the Tram stopped, she got off and walked to the house. She heard her name being called from inside the house. Bella stopped walking seeing Lea and Ki rushing towards her. Bella smiles their way with a curt wave.

"Where have you been?" questioned Ki touching her shoulders after stopping in front of her. "We've been so worried."

Bella begins to frown. "I'm sorry I worried you, I had a rough morning and I needed to get away from everyone. I had to gather my thoughts and the ocean was the best place I could go." Bella frowns more looking away. "I would've gone to the tower but I knew you would automatically look there."

Lea sighs and touches her head, petting it gently knowing why she did it. Ki sighs once more too and hugs her close like almost losing a sister. Bella hugs him back and closes her eyes. When Ki let her go they walked into the house but the two vampires stop and look back and their faces vamp out. Bella looks back and her eyes went completely wide.

"Naminé..."

"Hello, Isabella, I see you're doing well." Naminé stated to her with her normal soft voice. "But we must cut the formalities short, I have to bring you to my master."

"Why does he want me so bad?!" yells Bella almost crying. "I don't get it anymore..."

"Because of your powers, he wants to use them to control all of the supernatural beings. Once he does that he'll be rid of you."

Bella purses her lips tightly and looks at her friends. "But he wants you to become a vampire first and then rip out your pathetic little heart and kill you and I'll leave you the way you left me." Naminé continues and Bella's eyes widen and she stays with Lea and Ki.

What could she do? "Oh, and about your friend, Adela I think her name was, she was compelled by me. See, while she was at the dance when she walked to go to the bathroom I compelled her to remember everything from that night and before you know it, she's gonna blab to all your friends so they won't trust you anymore."

"No..."

A/N: Well, I hope I get to the part where she becomes a vampire but who knows, their could be a third book! Well, I guess we'll find out soon.
