The turmoil in the land was becoming alarming, the change of weather and the dying of livestock. Each day a child is recorded missing after which it is found dead. The villagers lived in fear every passing day, they didn't know the monster out there.

Those working in the field went along with several guards just to bring the food at the cost of their life and most of them died out there while the rest ran home. They just couldn't explain what they saw.

Bella, enclosed in her room, wasn't allowed to go outside right from when she was a baby, she watched through the window watching other children play around. She wished to be part of them but she couldn't.

Her father was both her mother and father and has tutored her each passing day how dangerous it was to go outside. She wished to breathe in fresh air, socialize with others and do what other random kids do.

As she came of age, she could feel this pull drawing her to the field, all her dreams ended up that way but then she thought it was all a dream. Her powers were manifesting and she was terrified of the development, sparks of white light emitted from her hands and most times it damaged things at home.

Her father knew it was time, the awaited time. The turmoil in the village was getting worse and only Bella could save them.

The spell of the dark shadows has been cast in the village taking the life of children. Bella was born as the light to save them from the dark shadows. She went to the field and raised her hands to the sky as white light emitted just like a thunderstorm. She brought back light to the village. No more death, no more fears.

It's a good thing her father kept her safe to safe the village (world?) from worse..
