Isabella, or Bella as she is lovingly called by her family and friends, was born into a life many of this world would only dream of. If princesses were still a thing she would have qualified for the title for sure. She was spoiled greatly by her doting father who was a high-ranking military official, needless to say, she was a daddies girl through and through. She was always a kind girl who was desperate to make friends with those around her regardless of class, it was something she was constantly scolded for growing up. She never knew a stranger and that would eventually land her in some trouble that she would never truly recover from.
She was nineteen and still living with her parents who refused to let her go off on her own when she caught a bit of a rebellious streak. She began sneaking out of her home at night and when her parents weren't around to go and explore the city. She had done this a few times successfully before she began exploring other parts of the stronghold realizing that the deeper in she got the worse the conditions around her began to get. She eventually found a way to get into the slums, her curiosity peaking wanting to see what it was like outside of the safety she had always know. In her naïvety she was sure that she would be safe, nothing could happen to her! It just wasn't possible. Unfortunately, she was very wrong. She wandered a bit too far and lost her way, people were already watching her like a hawk because she obviously didn't fit in with them, her jewelry was enough to give that away.
It was starting to get later and later before she found herself so hopelessly lost that she asked for help from a group of people who looked halfway decent. They stared her down for the longest before talking among themselves and then telling her to come with them, she trusted them and followed like a lost puppy and that was how her nightmare started. They refused to let her leave, telling her they could get something out of her be it a ransom or otherwise, she begged and pleaded for them to just let her go home but with no luck. The next few weeks were a total hell for Bella as she was kept locked away and drugged out of her mind with god only knows what. She found herself going in and out of consciousness hardly able to stay focused enough to eat what crap they fed her. She hardly remembers them cutting her and biting on her, confused as to why but she did remember the initial pain before once again slipping into unconsciousness.
Her father was eventually able to track her down and bring her home but not before he and a group of soldiers killed most of her captors, the rest fortunate enough to escape. Upon noticing the bites on her she was sent off immediately to be tested and have her wounds taken care of, things had already blown up in the inner citadel about her going missing he didn't need any more negative press. Her wounds would heal but leave scars but her mind would never be the same, she couldn't get over what had happened to her and the helplessness she felt but she swore she would never feel that way ever again. She would put on a brave face for her family but when it came down to it she just wanted things to change...for the better or the worse but things were going to change. Her father would gift her a Doberman puppy that would be trained to protect her, this would be one of the first steps to her future bloody legacy.
It took a long time but she would eventually go back out in the world, her experience didn't keep her from the slums, no instead she found herself there nearly weekly to help out in the orphanages. She began actively seeking out one of the classier gangs, the Diamonds, joining their ranks and quickly rising up. It took years to gain the trust of the Ace to get close enough to them to shove them off a building, but she did it and with a smile on her face. He may have been her friend but how was she going to have it all if he was still in the picture? She took over as Ace and is fairly new to the position, new enough that no one even realizes that she has taken over just yet. She still puts on a smile and acts the part of a good girl for her family but little do they know she is running a business of her own now, she already has so much but she isn't going to stop taking until this city is beneath her, after all who deserved everything more than her?
