Prologue
"Bella Swan, seventeen years old, accused of murdering Katelyn Maple, supposed best friend."
What? No! This never happened! This can't be true, I have no memory of this!
"The accused will now receive a Shadow to watch her, for as long as needed." The jury droned on, his eyes not looking up from his paper.
A black figure glided into the courtroom, its face covered by a black hood. It headed towards Bella, who was backing away as a stench of rotten, burning flesh hit her senses. The Shadow reached out and touched its charred hand to Bella's shoulder, and Bella felt a tremor go through her, as if another presence invaded her mind.
The prologue is really short, this is my first fanfic, please read on!
