Chapter 1

I am only 8 years old. I live in Forks, Washington. My name is Isabella Marie Swan. But I prefer Bella. The daughter of Renee and Charlie Swan. Renee is a substitute teacher and Charlie is a police officer. I have lived here ever since I can remember. I usually hate the rain. Because that's all it does here, rain.

Renee and Charlie have been having problems lately. Meaning they are fighting a lot and are on the verge of divorce. But they try to keep it together for me. I don't know why. I am worth nothing. I am also a plain jane. I am very pale. I have boring brown hair and plain brown eyes. My mother is prettier than me. I have too much Charlie in me. I don't like people worrying about me and I hate surprises. And I am so klutzy I am almost disabled.

Today we were going to get a new car because we need a bigger one. Our small Honda wont cut it anymore. I was sitting in the backseat reading Junie B. Jones First Grader. The book is very small but hey its good. I love reading by the way. My parents left me in the car while they went inside to talk to a person about some nice car. For once it was sunny so I had all the car windows down. Renee has the keys so the car wasn't on. As I was reading I heard the car unlock assuming it was my parents I didn't look up. But then I heard this weird clicking noise. I looked up and was horrified to not see my parents. But some guy trying to hotwire the car.

Then the car started, he hotwired it. He gave me a evil smile. I looked towards the store where I saw Renee and Charlie staring horrified they started running out of the building. The guy jumped in and closed the door. He started driving away. I had tears streaming down my cheeks as I looked out the back window. My father was staring at the car with pain and sadness, my mother crying on my father's shoulder. I cried and cried. I had no idea where this man was taking me and I didn't know why he did. All I know is I was kidnapped.

I cried myself to sleep in the car with a complete stranger.

What did you think? I hope you liked it. See I made this story because I was just at a car dealership recently because my brother is 16 and wants a car. So my parents and I went looking. We stopped at a place and my parents got out and left me alone in the car. And that is when I came up with the idea of this story. Because the thought of this happening to me came into my head. I will update as soon as possible. Thank you for all of your support.

PLEASE REVIEW!

Love you all!

Peace, Vanessa
