Prologue:

Here she was ten years after, walking through the steps of her enemies. The massive trees covered with green mouse were passing through her eyes so slowing that she felt like she had time to observe every details about them. Charlie surely took the traffic laws way too seriously even for a cop. Ever since he came to pick her at the airport she tried to look as sad as her situation demanded it forgetting that she actually was sad. She had been pretending for so long that sometimes the truth just escaped her. An I mage of her mom in her death bed came back to her and she squeezed her hands to calm herself. Sometimes she questioned herself but always found that no other solution could be acceptable than the one she choose. The feelings of tiredness she felt suddenly disappeared. She was ready for this.

-"How is Bella? ", she asked with a light tone

Charlie look at her and forward.

-"she is okay", he answered uncomfortably

-"I can't wait to see her again", she said

-"oh…I think it's not possible

-"why"

-"…yes she went…mmh to Tahiti with her family"

Tahiti really? She retained a chuckle. Charlie was a terrible liar

-"Tahiti…that's too bad", she said ,"I hope she comes back soon"

-"mmh", he agreed

It was almost night when they arrived and it was getting cold. But it wasn't the cold that made her shiver. In front of the house was standing a silhouette, svelte, tall, flawless. Long hair was cascading around the silhouette face and even if it was getting darker her trained eyes could see the silhouette pale skin. So it was true…her own blood had traded life to be doomed eternally. She could not believe it. With terror Lea got out of the car to greet her cousin.

-Bella, you father told me you were in Tahiti, Lea said while moving toward her

Bella gave a look to her father and looked at Lea again.

-I just came, I couldn't stay there after I heard the news, I am so sorry, said Bella

She pulled her cousin and hugged her. Now Lea knew no doubt could be entertained anymore. So Bella wanted darkness, darkness she shall receive

-I am happy you are here, she responded with a bitter sweet smile.
