Edward calmly stood up when the bell sounded. He watched as Bella ran out the door. He waited until the halls were cleared and moved too fast for the cameras to catch him. Bella's scent zigzagged around, no doubt maneuvering around other students. When he finally got to the end of her trail, she wasn't there. Her scent didn't go anywhere it's like she just...disappeared.

With Bella...

Everything around her was like rippling water. Her stomach lurched. When it stopped, she landed roughly on a dusty wood floor.

"Ouch." she mumbled.

"What was that?" a feminine voice asked.

Bella's eyes went wide as she looked at her new surroundings. "What is happening to me?" She stood up on uneasy feet, stumbling a bit. Her eyes fell on a big book on a pedestal. Bella walked over to it and the book glowed red, but didn't move. Bella took a step back and she jumped when she heard the door open.

A girl, that looked a lot like Bella, walked through the room. She had long dark, straight hair with big brown eyes. The woman glared and flicked her hands. Bella froze in fear as she saw the nearby couch get blown to bits. Her hands started to shake when the woman attempted again. Bella rolled out of the way just in time. The woman scowled and did the hand motion one more time, right on target, but Bella felt her stomach lurch once again and everything around her shimmer.

"Paige! Phoebe!" the woman called. Bright lights filled the attic and women Bella could only assume were Paige and Phoebe appeared once the orbs dissolved. "Demon."

"No, no!" Bella shouted. "I'm not a d-demon!"

She narrowed her eyes. "Then why did you shimmer? I don't have time for this!" she flicked her hands again and Bella felt her body resist against being frozen in place.

"Piper, stop," the woman with the pixie cut ordered. "She's scared. Seriously fearful. I don't think she's a demon."

The redhead cocked an eyebrow before turning to look at Bella. "What's your name, kid?"

"Bella." she answered. She took a hesitant step backwards. "I don't know what's happening to me. I was in school and this kid sitting next to me was glaring at me. I got really angry and then t-this ball of fire just appeared in my hand. When the bell rang he started to chase me but then I felt this pull and I was...here."

"Leo!" Piper called. "Leo you get your Elder ass down here right now!" Orbs formed in the middle of the attic, but not the man she wanted because Piper growled under her breath. "Chris, where the hell is Leo?"

"Busy." Chris answered. "I'm your Whitelighter now, I answer your calls, not Leo." He practically sneered the name.

"Leo has a family and responsibilities. His family is more important than his life as an Elder."

The short haired girl walked up to Bella as Piper and Chris argued. "I'm Phoebe." she greeted. "Where do you live, Bella?"

"Forks."

"Forks?" Paige asked with a bemused smile. "You live in an eating utensil?"

Bella chuckled. "No, Forks, Washington. Small, rainy town."

"Who are your parents?" Phoebe asked.

Bella narrowed her eyes in suspicion. "Why do you ask?"

"Small talk, kid, look it up." Paige said, rolling her eyes.

"I don't know my parents." Bella finally answered. "I was adopted."

Paige's look softened. "Oh. Have you tried looking for them?"

Bella snorted. "No. I don't think my mom even knows how she adopted me. She claims that she found me on her door step, that I was an angel sent from heaven because she couldn't have kids. Something about how I appeared in blue and white lights."

Paige and Phoebe shared a look.

"Piper, stop fighting with Chris, you might want to listen to this." Phoebe spoke up.

Chris and Piper looked over and Chris's eyes widened when he noticed Bella.

"What?" Piper snapped.

Paige walked over to Piper and Chris and started to talk in hushed tones. Bella picked out a word that Chris said earlier, "Whitelighter".

Piper scowled at the floor. "Dammit. Leo!" she shouted in such rage that it made all four of them visibly flinch. "You get your ass down here right now or I swear to God–"

That was enough for Leo. He Orbed in the attic. "What, Piper? I was in the middle of something imp–" Piper pointed to Bella and Leo paled.
