"Papa! Mama! Look how pretty she is!" cried 6 year old Haylii. Her parents looked at the doll in the window.

Her parents were disgusted with her blank white face that contained a lot of makeup and artificial beauty. 

"Haylii. Do you really want this doll?" asked her mother. "Its filled with fake beauty. What if you take influence and you hurt yourself?" continued her mom. Hailii payed no attention. 

She nodded. She looked at the doll. It was like the doll stared right back at her. Hailii fell in love with it as soon as her parents bought the doll. She named it Bella Marie. A beautiful name for a beautiful doll, right?

Wrong. Haylii put Bella Marie onto a dresser, sitting down. It was a still might that night. 

Bella blinked. She carefully got up, not knowing physics, she fell off the dresser. she stayed there all night.

In the morning, Bella Marie was on the floor, but still sitting down. Haylii woke up. 

"Bella! Oh Bella Marie! What happened to you?" asked Haylii. She picked up the doll. 

"Huh...thats weird." she noted. She turned the doll over.

Bella Marie was a wind up doll.

"Mama! Im ready!" Shouted Haylii. She ran down the stairs. "Oh. good." noted her mother. Her mother saw the doll in Haylii's hands. "Oh dear. Youre gonna leave that...'doll' right?" her mother rubbed the bridge of her nose. 

"Oh mama! Why not?" asked Haylii. Her father took over the conversation. "Do you want her to be lost or..or...ruined!?" he asked. Haylii shook her head. 

"Very well. Now go out your doll back and we can go." her mother ordered. 

Haylii nodded and left to put the doll back. She set the doll down and left.

The door slammed closed. 

The Key for Bella Marie twisted and turned, making a creaking noise as music came from the doll.

Bella Marie blinked. She looked up. 

"Huh! This is odd!" stated Bella. She stood up. She realised she was on the floor. So the coast was clear to walk. Bella moved very gracefully amd lady like. She left the room and climbed down the stairs to the living room.

She fell. She went toppling down the stairs. when she got up, the realized that her left eye had broken. She found the eye on the floor. She sighed. 

She went down to the living room and explored. After a good hour of exploring, she tried to climb back to the room.

She finally made it. she went back to the position she was in.
