NOTE- Since Within The Shadows is done, I have more time to work on this and maybe a sequel to the other. So here you go. Enjoy your midweek treat.

Last Time:

A chill ran down my spine, and I decided to turn the light on. I turned around as a hand covered my mouth, and a scream got caught in my throat.

This Time:

My attacker had a firm grip over my mouth. I screamed my muffled screams, although, they were barely audible. The attacker said something in a language I did not understand. I didn't think about that too much, as my "survival instincts" took over. I tried to bite his hand hoping he would let go in instinct. He simply just flinched and muttered again in some language. I tried kicking and he simply took the pain and yelled.

"Gina!" My attacker yelled with a slight European accent.

"What??" Gina replied she didn't seem to have an accent.

"The girl. She won't stop fussing." Why would I stop? I'm being attacked. I started to struggle again. In response he just tightened his grip. My struggles ceased when I realized I wasn't getting anywhere and the female walked into the room.

"Let her go Marcus. She isn't a criminal." She demanded in firm tone.

"But what if she screams?"

"She won't scream." She replied before meeting my gaze. "You won't scream will you? You know if you do, then we will just have to kill you." My eyes widened in fear. She just laughed at my expression. Marcus let me out of his death grip, but help onto my arm.

"Wh… Who are you?" I managed to stumble out, thought I was trying not to show it I was frightened.

"Well, I'm Gina." She said pointing to herself, before motioning to Marcus. "This is m darling brother, Marcus. So, that is Gina and Marcus Caponelli. We've come here on strict orders from our father."

I remained silent. Did they come here because of Bella? If they found out I told then maybe they got Bella. No. Bella is dead. The harsh reality made me sigh.

"So, why are you here?" I asked out of curiosity. If Bella was dead then my faults were no faults at all, correct?

"Well, sweetie we have reason to believe you broke the rules. Do you know what happens to people who break the rules?" Marcus said smiling sickly.

Yes. I knew. Powers taken away, but mostly it ended in… death. I gulped at the thought― a little too loud for my liking.

He leaned in on my right side. His breath hit my neck making my hairs rose. I could feel the smirk on his face as he spoke. "They don't live to break them again."

Gina laughed loudly in the background. Marcus soon joined her and they laughed briefly. Even after their laughter died, it still rang in my ears. I was sure at that moment, that their laughter would haunt me for a long time to come.

"But I didn't break any rules." I said hoping they wouldn't discover my lie.

"But you did." Gina replied sweetly.

"No, I didn't." I replied angry that my lie wasn't working.

She grabbed my arm, yanking me to her side. "Don't lie to me you stupid girl." She demanded. Her face grew angry. "You told Bella. Now tell me where she is. NOW!" She roared. I shuddered at her voice.

"I tell you I didn't. An… And Bella is… dead." I said quietly.

Her grip loosened and she relaxed. She took out tiny midnight blue cell phone. She flipped it open and dialed.

"La ragazza è morta." She said.

There was a brief pause before she hung up and instructed Marcus quickly and again in that weird language. He nodded and they fled out of my window. They left so quickly that if I would have blinked I would have missed it all.

Exhausted and terrified I shut my window and locked it. I glanced out one last time to check to make they were gone. Satisfied with what I saw― or didn't see. I went and lay on my bed. Feeling alone and empty I fell asleep.

NOTE- Okay so I have gotten endless PM's about Bella. You guys just have to wait and see if she is really dead. Thank you for your support. Please review. PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE!
