Born from Fire Chapter 1

I've never understood any of my life, i never knew why my parents left me. i'm in foster care, and move from family to family and school to school. Right now, i was with a couple, Aaron and hailey. They lived here in Chicago and sent me to a military boarding school. You know, they type that wears combat boots, layered gray skirts up our knees, white blouse with grey vests and red ties.

my name is Bella, I have wavy black hair, red streaks, and black eyes. I leaned agaisnt my locker  and sighed. Tomorrow i'd leave back to Aaron and haileys penthouse for 2 weeks. i was with my 3 friends, honey, kaitlyn, and kyra. Us 3 were all different, everyone here was Athletic or smart. Well i'm dyslexic, ADHD, and i was only good at gymnastics. But me and them we're alll Goth/Emo. Honey had blonde hair cut in a wedge, that went with her jawline. She had green eyes, but were hidden under thick eyelashes coated with mascara. her eyes were always outlined in kohl or liquid eyeliner, and lots of black eyeshadow. She always wore fishnet arm warmers, and fishnet leggings.

kaitlyn and kyra were twins, although nobody knew. Kaitlyn has dark black hair down to her shoulders. She always wore a hat backwards. She had electric green eyes (contacts). She always wore thick false eyelashes, liquid eyeliner, and a little black eyeshadow. She wore black and grey striped arm warmers, right from her fingers to her middle upper arm. Kyra looked nothing like Kaitlyn, She had bright red hair, emo style, she died her hair. Blue eyes, usualy with some black eyeliner, and lots of black eyeshadow. She wore a dog collar around her neck.

We are all chilling around my locker, waiting for the bell to ring, signaling classes were over. " So me and Kyra are going back to new york" kaitlyn said shifting nervously. " oh thats cool" i responded. "Not really, we just live in a apartment not one of those nice houses" Kyra said rolling her eyes slightly. Honey chuckled, "Going back to vancouver, is way worse. Not like Bella, living the highlife in a penthouse" Honey added. i shrunk back. Kaitlyn and Kyra eyed me. I garbbed my backpack and slung it over one shoulder, and shrugged. "its not like I'll be there for long, so so what?" I replied.

Claire, trotted up to us. Claire was a high honor student, who loved to waste time with us Riff raffs. She had dirty blonde hair to her elbows, gray eyes, and usualy wore a barrete pulling her bangs back, and glasses. "Bella, heard your leaving" She said with a crazy grin. I shrugged, "yeah and?" I asked. She smiled again. " Oh just wondering". Honey raised an eyebrow. " What are you hiding Claire?" She asked. Claire leaned over and whispered something in honeys ear. her face brightened. "Oh just go to the art room" Claire said. I nodded suspiciouly and walked away.

When i got to the art room, i noticed a tall blonde haired guy looking out the big windows. he turned and his sea green eyes shimmered. it was Zack Caston, the school jock. "hey Bella" he said nervously. i turned to leave but he sprinted up to me and pushed the door closed. "What do you want Zack, to pour your fruit smoothie all over me again" I spat. He shook his head and chuckled. i took a few steps back and crossed my arms. " Bella, i was wondering if we could hang out over the 2 weeks" He said quietly. "if your asking me out, then i'm not interested" i growled and walked out. he called me, but i just kept walking.

The bell rang, and i skirted around the hoards of people and into the bathroom. I changed into an outfit i had in my bag. A black baggy top over a black cami. the top had blood red marks, like a tiger shredded it. Fishnet arm warmers. black shorts with a silver chain, Fishnet leggings, and the combat boots. i redid my eyeliner, and went to meet outside with Honey. Honey looked fresher, with a red tank top, black leather jacket, black jeggings and high leather heel boots. her her had a little top hat headband. "Digging the new outfit bell, what did Zack want?" She asked. "He was trying to ask me out" i grumbled. her mouth opened. "oh so the Jock and the goth" She laughing. I shook my head, "turned him down" i replied sullenly.

Kyra walked up to us, she wore a short black dress, black leggings, brown combat boots, and a white fur shrug. Kaitlyn followed her wearing a red halter top, diamond choker, black shorts and flip flops. We all climbed on the bus. Since i lived in Chicago i was the first to go. I waved good bye to my freinds, before heading down the dusty street. i finaly came to the apartment, and took the elevator to the 24th floor. once i got there, i dropped my bag on the ground. "i'm back!" i said. Aaron was chilling on the couch, strumming a guitar as if it was no big deal. hailey was in the kitchen probably making cookies. hailey came out, her chocolate brown hair pulled in a bun, and a white dress, with a black apron. aaron had shaggy blonde hair and green eyes.

Hailey held a tray with choclate chip cookies, and coke. i helped myself before plopping on the couch.  "hey kid" aaron said grufly. he put away his guitar and pulled out a greek textbook. he scoffed and huffed a few times while he read. hailey was busy dusting and stuff. The hailey whipped out of her pocket a necklace. it had a brown stone pendat on it. " We got you a gift!" She delcared. Aaron looked up at her and signaled her not to give it. i eyed it. She dropped it in my lap. and then walked away as if to say welcome back heres a present, like it was checked off a to do list. Strage words were etched on both sides, one said Βελλα ροσε ωολφ, and the other said Δαυγητερ οφ τηε Δεαδ, Σπιριτ οφ τηε ωολφ. Δαυγητερ οφ φιρε, δαυγητερ οφ δαρκνεσσ. i realized the first side, said bella rose wolf, the other said Daughter of the dead, spirit of the wolf, daughter of fire, daughter of darkness. it was in greek, but if i concentrated it turned into english. I heard a sizzling sound and weird writings that were etched on the door burned. it said ηψδρα. Hydra.

i heard of greek legends. the hydra was a three headed serpant thing. if you cut off one head, two grow back. And it materilized right in front of me. Aaron grabbed his guitar and a burst of light and heat shot out from it. After that he was dressed in a greek tunic, his skin was illuminated. haileys hair feel down, and she also wore a tunic amnd her hair was plated with gold. She eyed me, "put it on". the hydra roared, and began to walk towards me. Quickly i put on the necklace.προτεξτ burned above my head. protect. i felt stronger but them something shot me out of the window, as the building exploded. and i fell 24 storys down.

  1. How did Bella know that Kaitlyn and Kyra were twins if nobody knew? It's great that you're blogging again. It's interesting to finally read some of your writing.

    1. oh becuase they have the same last name, but no one really borthered to notice, and plus Kyra has red hair, and she died it, because people used to think they were the same. i'll explain some more on it in later chapters
