Chapter 1

Bella's POV

I woke up to the sound of the telephone in my bedroom. Uh. That will probably be my boss I thought.

"Bella!" I heard as I picked up the phone.

Yep I was right.

"Bella, I want you to come here right now! Get out of bed. We are going to have a talk, please." He disconnected. I lay there in shock, never had he ever once said please to me. I got up slowly and groaned. It was 6:00am in the morning. Stupid boss! Why did he have to ring me now? He knew I had a late night last night. For some reason I couldn't remember last night, but I brushed it off. I ran downstairs and tipped some rice pops into a bowl, then shoveled it down. I ran up the stairs and into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth hurriedly then jumped into my bedroom. I looked into my wardrobe and scratched my head.

"What should I wear?" I thought.

The phone started ringing. I grabbed the closest thing to me and shoved it on. I raced out into my bright red Audi A4 holding my cell phone. I yanked the door open and hopped inside. I turned on the engine and scooted out my driveway and onto the main road. I stuck my phone into its wireless plug-in and answered my call.

"Have you left yet Bella?" my boss asked.

"Yes I'm coming right now," I said and disconnected.

I drove about 8 blocks away then turned down a side street. I continued down the road and then turned left down a road is barely used. I kept going until I came up to a 10 meter high fence with barbed wire all over it. I grabbed my card and wound down my window. I placed it against the sensor and waited impatiently for the door to open. When it did I drove in and down the road. I drove for about a mile before I was up close to the building and then I drove into one of the parks. I ran up the steps then into the main door. I nearly crashed into Mr Cashmore, the care taker. I apologized then ran into my Boss, Mr Lloyd Welsby's study.

"Hello Mr Welsby. What did you want from me?"

"First. For you to answer your phone when it rings. I rang you five times before you answered it."

"Sorry. I was sleeping."

"I guessed that. Anyway. Where on earth did you go last night? Your monitor telling us where you are… well your dot just vanished. And well we have no idea where because your dot was getting slowly dimmer and dimmer. And then just… went. It was weird. And then three hours later your dot comes back on… you see we had been watching for it ever since it vanished. Well it came back on in your bedroom and there was a va… um well… well what have you to say for yourself?"

I bet he was going to say vampire but there is something strange. Why didn't he want to say it? Something is not right.

"Well something was coming after me and I tripped over and blacked out. I woke up in my bedroom."

I decided not to tell him much. Actually barely anything. I had a feeling I shouldn't be saying anything.

"Are you sure that is all."

"Yes."

"We are sending you to a place in England called Whitby. It's on the right coast. There are some vampires there, as yet they have not caused us any problems but they might be a potential danger. The 'children' go to school so you are to. I think it would be good for you to do your last year at school outside London. If need be, you will have to exterminate them from this planet. We advise you not to get close to them, in a friendly way. It would be harder to put an end to their existence. Anything else you need to know?"

"No Mr Welsby."

"Ok then. You can leave."

"What about my files?"

"Oh Mrs Douchester, the receptionist has them for you."

I took that to be a dismissal and fled after saying goodbye. I am very shy apart from when I am doing my work. Not the characteristic to have but there you have it. I walked very slowly down to the reception, Mr Welsby usually has my files and I wasn't looking forward to this.

"Um… I'm Bella, um… could I please have my files?"

"Of course dear." The receptionist took them off the side of her desk and handed them to me. "Have a nice time dear."

"Thank you," I replied.

I walked slowly out to my Audi and got in. I drove the long way thinking about my conversation with Mr Welsby. I wondered why Mr Welsby is making me go to Whitby if the vampires there are not a problem. He only usually does that with beginners. Something is very suspicious. Oh well I will have to go. I'd be too shy to say anything.
