Okay, don't own Bella, or Alice. Wish I did, but thus is my life.

Escape

I watched Bella as she watched the flame on her finger. She tilted her head, moving the small flame to her index. "Hey, it worked…" She whispered, barely loud enough for me to hear. She then began moving it onto her other fingers. I listened for the guards, but heard nothing, and I was starting to get tired. "Bella," I uttered, knowing anyone further then she would not hear me.

She looked up, raising an eyebrow. The flame was the only light, so I could only see her eyes and most of her nose. I guess she didn't want to risk the guards hearing. "When are we—"

"I'll tell you," I nodded and lay down on the floor, fascinated with her control of the flame. I shivered a little. Despite this, I drifted off quickly.

"-Leech. Hey, Leech! Wake up," A warm hand was shaking me, but I opened my eyes to see nothing. Just darkness.

"My name is Alice, Dog," I groaned.

"Well, get up. They're gone and we go now or never,"

It hit me what she was talking about and I jumped up. "Well, lets go!" I whispered. She took my hand, leading me through the darkness, then stopped.

"Cover your ears," She whispered. I did and still heard the loud "Bam!" the door made when she kicked it out.

"Damn!" I decided that being loud was no biggy now that she had done that. She nodded and we ran toward the exit. I now noticed that she wore a long, hooded cloak that covered her whole body, but bellowed out as she ran.

"Duck," She calmly said as a Vampire jumped at her head. She and I both ducked and kept running. She snapped her finger and a ball of fire came alight in her right hand. Her eyes narrowed and she threw it ahead of us. It hit one of the Vampires running in our direction, causing him and the ones next to him to burst into purple flames.

"Come on," She grabbed my hand, pulling me to the right, down another hallway.

"Do you know where you're going?" She released my hand.

"Sorta," She jumped forward, kicking an upcoming Vampire in the face, sending him flying into others. Unfortunately, we hit a four way intersection. Did I mention we were surrounded?

"What now, Dog?" I growled. She looked around, thinking hard. She then sighed, unfastened her cloak, and put it on me.

"Here," She whispered. "When I tell you, jump on my back. I've always wanted to try this," She snapped and fire appeared in both her hands. She breathed in, and the vampires in the front looked fearful, but held their position. Bella lifted her hands over her head, then began so bring then toward the ground. "Now!" She yelled.

A few things happened after I was in the air. I landed on her back as her hands hit the floor. Fire came up and spread, like she had thrown a stone in water, but this was fire, and deadly to all the vampires. Including me. I clamped my eyes closed.

I felt the heat, but it was Bella's skin, not the fire. I opened my eyes and saw that we were soaring over the Vampires, each now catching fire. "Hold on, Leech," Bella had a smile in her voice and I gripped onto her shoulders.

Bella burst into a big cat in midair. I almost let go of her in surprise. i wasn't even sure what she was. Her fur was red-ish white, she had a thin mane, like a lion, but she also had tiger strips.

She landed behind the vampires and ran toward a window. "Are you insane?" I screamed, but she jumped, crashing through the glass and landing on the next building's roof. The sun was out and blazing, but none of it hit my skin thanks to the cloak.

She ran to the end of the roof and jumped, reaching the next, lower building, and kept going. Soon we were about to hit the forest, running pretty fast.

We had been going for hours, finally in the middle of the forest. Bella slowed to a stop, and I slid off. maybe thirty feet in length. Her tail was swinging lazily from side to side before she walked into the trees. It was silent for a moment (oh, crap, did she leave me?), before she called out.

"Hey. Can you hand me a pair of clothes? They're in the cloak," I looked at the thing still around me, and then opened it. There were many pockets and some of them had clothes. I pulled out a pair and tossed them in the direction on her voice. "Thanks, Leech,"

She walked out shortly after, straightening out her shirt. I had tossed her loose, dark wash jeans and a black tank top that revealed a tattoo of a tiger on her right bicep. It kind of looked like a black fire with a tiger head in it (). On her other bicep was a lion head, but the mane looked like it was fire… kind of (.). Her hair was wind whipped and looked kind of… good.

"Alright, I think we're in Italy. You live in the US, right? Cause I could swim us both back. It might take a while, but—" She stopped when she looked up at me. Her eyes widened and she stumbled back. I pulled the hood back and tilted my head.

"What?"

She blinked and shook her head. "N-nothing. You still tired? We could stay here for a bit, rest, then head toward an airport or something," She looked at me again. "Can I have my cloak back? I need to see if something is in there,"

I took it off and handed it to her. "Here,"

"Thanks," She set it on the ground, laying it out completely. "Let's see… uh… there you are. Stupid wallet," She pulled out a Pon and Zi wallet. It was one with the "I don't even like snails," comic. I smiled. So, hard core Bella liked Pon and Zi. Heh.

"I have enough for two coach tickets. Hope that's cool with you," She muttered.

"Yeah, that's fine,"

She stood, swinging the cloak around her and fastening it around her neck. She then sat at the base of a tree, leaning back against it. "Bella, why did I have to wear the cloak when you did the… big fire thingy? And how did I live through that?"

She peered at me, then nodded her head to the tree next to her. I sat and she sighed. "The cloak is fireproof. My master gave it to me while I was training. That way, if I lost control of the fire, I wouldn't get injured. That is how you lived. The fire could touch you, but didn't have any effect,"

"… Thanks,"

"No problem," She leaned back against the tree and closed her eyes. "We should sleep. Once the sun is down, the Leeches will be after us,"

"Right," I started to lean against the tree, but she opened her eyes.

"You can use my lap as a pillow. Might be more comfortable," She raised an eyebrow and I felt a smile tug at the corner of my lips.

"Okay," I laid down and closed my eyes. Soon enough, I fell asleep, but not before I heard her say, "Night, Alice,"

Well well well. Looky here. They are out, but not free… and what was up with Bella? What do you think? Tell me, please! =)
