Hide and seek
Bella is a little six year old girl living with Charlie after her mother died giving birth to her. She and he get along great and he is the best dad he can be to her. She loves playing hide and seek and reading with him in the living room. This is where the story starts off.
"Hey squirt do you want to play hide and seek out in the back year?" Charlie asks.
Bella looks up from her book she was reading and smiles a smile that fills up her entire face.
"Yeah poppa"
She jumps up and runs at top speed towards the door. Almost falling but Charlie is right behind her to catch her which he always does cuz of her clumsy problem.
"Hey watch out you almost fell flat on your face sweetie" he smiles down at her and she beams up at him.
They go to the back yard and Bella yells NOT IT. Spinning around in the small amount of sun that is shining in their back yard. Charlie smiles again and nods his head in agreement/

"So what should I count to kiddo?"
I tap my finger on my chin trying to think of a number good enough and long enough for me to find a good hiding place and figure on fifty. That should take a hundred years to count to and that will give me perfect amount of time to hide.
"Fifty!"I yell and he turns around towards the house and rests his head on his arms starting to count.
I run to the freesia tree on the edge of our yard and look up. This should be perfect. I turn around and glance at my dad and see him peeking at me.
"No peeking poppa" I say and he turns back to the house.
I climb up the tree quickly and find a branch up at the very tippy top that I can sit on and look through the flowers and see my dad still counting. I know he wouldn't be able to see me at all cuz I can't even see the ground it is covered by branched and flowers that are in full bloom. They encase me in such a wonderful scent. He is only on twenty so I decide to watch and wait for him to finish trying not to giggle while doing so.
Suddenly two figures come silently walking out of the forest right under where I am seated. I can see the tops of their heads as the watch my father count. I want to tell him but I don't want him to know where I am hiding or them for that matter. Maybe they are friends of his and want to play too. I can barely make out what they are saying but I lean down further and in the sun which is really warm to listen. There is a woman with fiery red hair wearing nothing but a torn up dress and a man with long straight grey hair but
his features are young. He is wearing old fashioned clothes it looks like. Like on the movies I watch on TV of the old time world.
"I don't think I can do this Victoria" the man says.
"It is the only way we can settle this agreement Christopher." She says in a bored tone of voice.
I don't think I like the lady very much but the man has such a soothing voice I could listen to that for hours.
"But this poor man, why is he counting for one thing and he could have a life a family we can't just take that away from him." He is pleading with her now
"no we have to do this Christopher and you are going to help I know you are." she smirks at him."I know you too well for this and if I have to start something then you can finish it for me."
We can't have people fighting us because we love each other and come from different places. And I won't have them thinking anything other."
With that she crouches to the ground and starts to shake. The dress comes off silently and she burst in to a fiery red ball of fluff. Then it settles to show a sleek looking wolf. Almost like a fox but I know it is a wolf just much bigger. Stronger, scarier. Now I am too afraid to say anything to I just sit there on my perch and watch them and my father.
She swiftly moves to where y father is standing still counting. The man walks into the sunlight and bursts in to beautiful sparkles it looks like diamonds are in his skin. He hisses to the woman telling her to stop but she stands on her hind moving towards my father. He hears a crunch of grass and chuckles.
"Silly Bella you are supposed to hide while I count." He slowly turns with a smile on his face and then sees the woman, wolf thing. His eyes turn to horror and he is speechless. She swiftly takes one paw and slashes his entire torso. Blood gushes out and e looks so in pain. When he is on the ground he says franticly"Bella where ever you are I love you and always will please stay safe I love you."
The man looking all around for me I am guessing runs over."I can't find that girl anywhere" he says and the woman just laughs and says in her husky wolf voice, "we'll get her later don't worry she will be dead by the time we are finished" he smiles evilly and continues on his way to the woman. I see that his eyes are pitch black as he looks at my bleeding father. I have my hand over my mouth to smother my sobs I want to yell to him to get help but I know he won't. He bends down and says "now look what you have done Victoria. He dips his fingers in to my father's blood and lips them clean. He then proceeds to bite my fathers' neck and drink his blood. I thought vampires were fake. And werewolves too I am guess is what the lady is but oh my god they aren't and these two are evil.
When the man is finished drinking from my dead dad he glares at the woman.
"You didn't have to do that you know"
"I know but it was oh so much fun "she growls in her wolf voice
Then he does something I didn't think he would do. He pounced on her. Tackling her to the ground. She gets up swiftly and out of his way.
"What are you doing?" she hisses and moves to strike back
"Taking away the evidence sweetie" he says sinisterly. Then they clash together making the ground shake. These people things were strong. I watch for at least a half an hour as these two beings fight together. Then suddenly the woman runs to her dress and pulls out a lighter. She has changes back for a moment and a moment is all he needed to come fast as lightning to her and strike her. But as he did she lit the lighter and threw it at his slashing his body open in the process. They both fell to the ground at the foot of the tree where I stayed silently. I watched as the man became engulfed in flames. Then the woman. They were both dead and I didn't care. Blackish purple smoke rose from the where they were and smothered me in the tree. I coughed but stayed were I was. It was until the smoke had burnt out that I decided to move from my position. I was scared for my life both figuratively and literally when I moved in that freesia tree.
