The Shadows

by Danielle Pitter

Drabble form. Mass attacks are made around Seattle by these dark creatures called Shadows. They feed off of light, happiness, and joy and suck them out of their victims, leaving them emotionless. And now they're after Bella. But she doesn't know why or how. Because she doesn't know how powerful she is. Can the Cullens help her discover her true power while protecting their city?

"So, how did you do that with those Shadows you faced?"

~oOo~

I shrugged, still trying to shake off the fear from the last hour.

"I don't know how I did it. I didn't even know I had powers until that happened," I said.

"You must have had them from your parents. Or your grandparents, maybe?" Carlisle asked.

"I don't remember my grandparents. They died when I was a baby….in a storm. They were in a storm like this one, full of Shadows. My parents told me." I whispered. It all was starting to make sense, but that still didn't understand why it was me who had these abilities.

But why me? Why now? I was nothing special. I didn't know how to control any of this.
