I like Twilight. I used to love Twilight. But then, I began to feel disappointed. I wanted Bella to have DONE something that actually could affect the entire WORLD. Suddenly, I created my own versions of Edward and Bella and the Volturi. I like Twilight as it is....but it would be much better like this.

Bella سوان, ہنس tugged on her muddy brown ponytail to keep in in place as thundered roared and rain came down in buckets on the deserted island. The forest, slick with slime and muck, was dangerous enough without HIM lurking in the shadows. Her ears picked up a soft sound beneath the gale. He was here. He had arrived.
Bella dived behind a small boulder, pulled out her silver cross, and wondered what this one would be like. As a vampire slayer, she had encountered devilish vampires with all different ways of attack. She moved her foot slightly out of the muck to keep them from becoming stuck. She couldn't lose any advantage she had.
Flipping the پار, صلیب in her scarred hand, she saw something zoom past the trees, just a few yards from her. He had seen her. It was time to go.
BOOOM! CRACK! A huge flash of light, and not so far away, a درخت was struck سے طرف کی lightning and fell. Bella pulled out a clove of garlic. She was taking no chances.
She was thin, with brown hair in a neat ponytail. She might've looked beautiful, but آپ couldn't tell, as she was covered in scars, bruises, and mud. Her eyes spoke of a person who had overcome many challenges and faced death innumerable times.
Bella سوان, ہنس was athletic, brave, over-confident, and the best vampire slayer around.
Another boom, and another flash of light. In that flash, she was able to peer through the darkness and see the vampire, running away. She leapt nimbly over a fallen tree, her muddy shoes nearly touching the slippery bark, which was wearing away.
Now, she was on the edge of a grassy cliff, covered in slick mud, which overlooked the rocky ساحل of the island. There was her boat, docked a few yards away, being tossed about سے طرف کی the wind. Another boom revealed a small pit, big enough for someone to crawl in, carved into the side of the cliff. So, the ماؤس had gone back to his hole, huh? Well, he was no match for her.
She crawled down through the rocky tunnel, past the gray bones and skulls of various animals. He was here alright.
As soon as she leapt out of the tunnel, the vampire sprang from the shadows. Bella held the clove in front of her. The vampire speedily retreated deeper into the muddy cave.
A bat swooped down and چرا لیا, چوری کی the garlic. But she still had the پار, صلیب and her trusty stake.
She ran deeper and deeper into the cave, and another bat swooped down, this time stealing her cross. It nearly strangled her as it did.
Bella began to worry as she grabbed her stake. He was coming for her now.....
She paused. He was going to come for her. All she had to do was wait.....then she heard the small slop of footsteps. The vampire had approached her from behind. She dived out of his way as he lunged, landing in the mud, nearly spearing herself on a stalagmite. An instant later, she was up on her feet, kicking the vampire in the shin, and the vampire fell over. She raised the stake....
"Bella, stop." The vampire said. His pale face, which was rather handsome for a vampire, spoke of fear.
"So آپ know who I am then?" She asked cooly.
"Yes! And Bella-" the vampire paused. "Bella, I can help you. Don't آپ want to have YOUR own novel? Don't آپ want to be as famous as Buffy? I can tell آپ where to find the Volturi."
Bella pondered her descisions, not glancing away from the vampire یا loosening her grip on the stake. That was what she wanted most-to catch the Volturi. Then SHE would be the most known vampire slayer. Then SHE would get credit for vanquishing the mighty Gregor XI, the most notorious vampire in North America. She heard a muffled boom of the raging storm overhead.
"It's my duty to slay vampires." Bella told him. "They eat humans and are a danger to us."
"No, no, I do not eat people!" The vampire cried desperately. "I eat bears, and wolves, and birds, but never people."
Bella stared cruelly down at the vampire. "We'll meet in the middle then. آپ help me find the Volturi. Once they are destroyed, however-" she moved the stake closer to his chest-"I'm coming after you."
"Thank you." The vampire sighed as the stake was lifted. "My name is Edward Cullen."

Bella kept a watch on Edward as they walked back to the boat. Through the forest full of strange sounds and dead trees. It was pouring and they were soaked, but Bella didn't mind. She was used to bad weather.
They got on the boat, which was a steam ship. "Get your crosses on." She screeched to the captain. "I've got a captive coming." Then, Bella rowed the dory to the boat, always watching Edward, keeping her stake at hand.
"So..." Edward said, unable to keep himself from glancing at the stake. "Do آپ do anything besides hunting vampires?"
"I go to Forks High School and play volleyball." She کہا flatly. Not like he cared. She thought of her school. Ever since Tyler had told everyone she was a vampire slayer, people started loving her. She wished she could just blend in. After all, why wasn't SHE allowed to live a normal life? Why did the Volturi have to kidnap HER mom, sending her in this endless pursuit of them?
Thunder boomed, and the wave carried the little کشتی to the steamship. They arrived at the metal rungs that allowed them to get to the boat.
"You first." Bella told Edward, nodding her head toward the boat. He clambered up, and Bella, not releasing her grip on the stake, followed suit.
When she got up, her crewmates, سے طرف کی the use of garlic, stakes, and crosses, were forcing Edward into their Vampire Containment Chamberm یا VCC.
"You look like آپ need some freshening up." Her dad, remarked. Bella could see the lines of worry on his face. Bella knew he hated her stunts. But he wanted her mom back, too, but couldn't defeat the Volturi himself because he had a rare disease that gave him severe pains if he moved too fast.
"It's okay dad." She said,hugging him. "I just need a پار, صلیب necklace. I'm going to speak to him."
"Are آپ sure? We-"
"Dad, he knows where the Volturi is."
That kept him quiet. Lightning flashed, and once again, Bella could see his face clearly: worried, hair graying, looking older than he was. "Use mine. I'll get another." And her dad walked around the deck and back to his cabin, leaving his silver پار, صلیب in Bella's hand.

"Where are they?" Bella demanded.
Edward shook his head.
"You don't know?!"
"Carlisle does."
"Who's Carlisle?"
"He lives in the forest سے طرف کی your hometown, Bella."
Bella sneered at him. Was he trying to mock her? To suggest she was foolish not to slay the vampires that were so near her?
"What are آپ thinking?" Asked Edward.
"What do آپ mean?" Bella asked, gripping her stake.
"I can read everyone's thoughts.....except yours."
Bella stared at him. Was he being serious? Vampire powers always worked. Always.
"Well that's too bad for you, now isn't it?"
She left Edward there, wondering why his powers weren't working.

The steamship arrived on the Californian coast two days later, then they traveled سے طرف کی nightfall in an RV to Forks. Their ہوم had a basement which functioned as a VCC, and it was there they kept Edward. A دن after they arrived, Bella was interrogating him yet again.
"Where is Carlisle?" She asked him, he پار, صلیب ہار jangling on her neck.
"Even if I told آپ he wouldn't let آپ in." Edward sneered. "You would be ripped into pieces."
"Are آپ saying I can't defeat your vampire friend?"
"No!" Edward cried, "Don't hurt him!"
Bella saw that Edward was in her control.
"Why not?"
Edward paused. "You're beautiful." He told her quietly. Bella jumped back.
"You are going to take me to Carlisle tomorrow. Got it?" Bella didn't wait for him to reply. She left the room quickly.

They ran deeper and deeper into the forest. Edward ran at a superhuman speed, but Bella could run almost that, and would stop him if he tried to leap ahead. His liquidy topaz eyes would stare at her in hurt and worry. What was up with him?
They stepped into the house, and Bella pulled out a clove of garlic. She wasn't taking any chances.
"Carlisle!" Edward called. A man dressed like a doctor zoomed toward him.
"You're a doctor?" Bella asked, holding out the clove of garlic.
"I only operate on vampires. That's how I made Edward able to survive in sunlight! The only side effect is purple skin, but that's fixed سے طرف کی a little body gliiter..."
"Do آپ know where the Volturi headquarters is?" Bella asked sharply.
"It's in Italy, but they've come to America." Carlisle replied."They're now in a small قلعہ deep in the forest....."
"Come on, Edward." Bella yanked his arm. "Let's go."
Edward stayed in the VCC for two مزید weeks, یا so Bella thought. One night, when she woke up with a nightmare about the Volturi, she saw him in the window, watching her sleep.
She wanted to scream, but nothing came out. "What are آپ doing here?" She tossed a lamp at him. He ducked quickly.
She grapped the stake.
"Let's not do anything rash now......"
"Why are آپ here?"
"You're beautiful Bella." Edward replied. "I can't read your thoughts."
"SO WHAT?" She hurtled the stake at him. Edward dived out of the way. She grabbed a stake hidden under her bed. آپ could never have too many.
"Bella, don't." Edward pleaded, and Bella stopped, mostly out of pity.
She led him down the steps to the VCC, where she realized she had left the door unlocked. She all three locks after. That vampire would never stalk her again.

Bella ducked and dived through the forest. All of her vampire training had prepared her for this. There it was, the Volturi castle...
Suddenly, she saw the vampire dash toward her. She pulled out her stake. It was only held back for a moment before it lunged, but it was repelled سے طرف کی her clove of garlic and پار, صلیب necklace. Bella began to dash away, and then fell to the ground after tripping over a large stone. The clove of garlic and wooden stake rolled across the dark green grass, towards the brink of a cliff....she reached for them, but they both fell, and now her ہار was slipping away...
The vampire lunged, and she was sent dashing closer to the edge of the cliff.....now she was on the very edge. She was trying to recall anything Edward had کہا about the Volturi. He hadn't really کہا anything. He might look fine, but he was useless. Completely useless.
She had no choice. She'd have to jump.
After she was soaring to the mass of pointy rocks below, she heard a snarl, a crack, and suddenly someone was grabbing her hand.
"Who are you?" She asked him.
"Jacob Black. I'm a shapeshifter."
He pulled her up. "What are آپ doing, challenging the Volturi?"
"I can defeat them, I know it." Bella narrowed her eyes. Jacob Black, the shapeshifter, might be good looking, smart and brave. She tried to analyze his character. He could help her.
"Why do آپ think that?"
"Because I have defeated hundreds of vampires like them. Why should they be any different?"
