"Bella, C'mon you need to help!" Lora Cazu, Bella's mother yelled from the ground

Bella sat on the roof of their latest house, drawing a picture of the far off buildings in the distance. Hearing her mother yell for her she sighed and looked down. "I did help I carried the stuff for my room inside!" she called from the roof.

Lora crossed her arms "You carried in some stuff now help with the rest." she said Bella tossed down her notebook and watched as Lora caught it. Climbing down one of the beams of the two-story house she slid to the ground and landed with a small 'thud'. Once she was down she walked past Lora climbed up into the moving van and picked up another box, jumped down, landing once again with a small thud and walking pastLora once again. "At least help with the-" Bella slammed the door as she went inside "heavy lifting part." Lora finished sighed. Ever since Duncan Cozu, Lora's husband and Bella's adoptive father went missing Bella was never the same. She suddenly became distant and her personality changed drastically. The once happy girl was now slightly depressed because of it.

Sighing as she walked into the kitchen she set the box she had carried in on the counter. Bella looked around for the millionth time. The house they had moved into was supposedly owned within the family meaning it had been in the family for years. The two-story house was slightly run down. Shingles on the roof were coming off, even a small hole was in the roof and with Bella's luck, it was over her room meaning the next rain shower would cause water to seep into her room. The inside of the house looked as if it hadn't been updated in a few years, the paint was chipping off the walls, old wall paper was peeling back, what furniture was in the house looked as if it was from the nineteen hundred's. Old and run down like the house.

"Bella i promise you this will be the last time we move." Lora said


Bella turned and looked at her mother. "You've said that for the past nine times we've moved in five years." she said.

Lora sighed sadly before hugging Bella and letting go "Eighth time" she corrected as she let go.

"Still just as bad" Bella said, taking the box Lora had labeled 'Bella's Room' in bold lettering. Walking up the stairs, headed to her new room. Walking through the doorway she looked around (for the third time) her room was like the rest of the house. Old and rundown. Bella knew that if they stayed here all the rooms and house itself would be updated soon. Setting the box down on her bed she headed back out, as she walked past one of the bathrooms she noticed a faint glow coming from behind the door. The glow was a bright black color which surprised Bella considering black was a hard color to spot when the house was dark. Opening the door she was slightly blinded but as she walked in the glow seemed to die down as if it was waiting for her to enter. Looking around she noticed nothing unusual. Stepping on an old floor board she looked down and was surprised to find that the floor seemed to almost... vibrate. Bending down she felt the floor. Still vibrating. As she went to lift up the board she felt a small wind and heard a few faint whispers as if they wore whispering to her.

"Bella! Be sure to get your hamster!" Lora yelled, scaring Bella half to death.

"Yeah mom I will!" she called back, forgetting about the glow and vibrations coming from the floor boards

Angor Rot stood in the shadows of the hallway. He watched as the young soon-to-be TrollHunter look around the upstairs for a few seconds before quickly going down the stairs to get what Angor Rot could only assume as a 'hamster' as he had heard a few people around Arcadia. Not liking the fact that he had yet not gotten the 'Amulet of Night', the 'alter ego' of 'the amulet of Daylight'. He had basically stalked the fourteen year old for a few week's waiting for the child to reveal the amulet and for him to strike but of course he hadn't seen even a glimpse of the amulet. Angor Rot knew she had to have it as her father had been a troll hunter before. It was only natural for the child of the troll hunter to inherit the amulet but of course as he has witnessed from James lake Jr. That was not the case, but he still had hope for that to be the very reason. He's smirked as he glanced into the human's bathroom and saw the still glowing aurora in the room. He knew it was only a matter of time. And in that time he would strike, weather be killing the child or handing her over to Strickler as a sort of 'surprise'
