Set after the events of the first book in the Twilight series Bella Swan and Edward Cullen are finally together without any worry… or so they think. Since arriving back in Forks being nearly killed by a bloodthirsty Vampire, Bella has not been the same. ..
...............................................................................
A young girl lies bleeding and distressed on the edge of a cliff that looks out over the meandering ocean, the sky is grey, a man clad in what looks like a mink jacket stands over her. I can see this clearly but am too far away to help, my heart starts to beat faster than it would when I touch Edwards ice cold face, I am afraid. I close my eyes, only for a second, and when I open them she has gone. But the mysterious coat wearing figure stands tall in the same position looking out across the water.
That's when I wake up.
The same dream has been happening again and again since I returned to Forks two short weeks ago. But it’s different from other dreams. It’s so clear and vivid. So clear I can touch the sharp rocks I’m rested on high up on a rocky coastline. So vivid I can feel the bone chilling wind covering my body.
Who are the figures on the cliff face? What happened to the girl? How can a dream be so clear? And what has it got to do with me? My mind is full of questions. But until I have anwsers I will not tell a soul. Not even Edward...
nice, hooning the new moon skeez, i really like how you have written this man. you sort of step deeper into bella than the original did,i look forward to seeing where you take this.
ReplyDeleteI want more!! i liked the dream sequence, and especially how Bella wants answers, but she will not tell anyone what she dreamt. I would like to know how she accomplishes that task. Interesting indeed.
ReplyDeleteI like the way you shift the narrative style here from personal introspection, description to a collection of questions (which could double up as those of the reader's)- I wonder if some of the writing in the first paragraph could be more coherently phrased tho. Seems a lot of people are interested in Twilight - I really need to check it out . .
ReplyDeleteThis is really good -- the writing is strong and quite intense, all in keeping with the Twilight style. And it’s introduced in a way that the reader can't help but wonder what comes next and want more -- well done!
ReplyDeletei like it, i like the questions at the end its what i would ask when i read it. i agree with Conor, how you delve deeper into Bella it works with the way you have written this piece- its deep and intense. Look forward to reading the next installment.
