I've decided that I'm writing a guide first to my fanfiction. Because if people read the guide and like the storyline, then I'll write it. If they think it isn't good and nobody would read it, then I won't. I don't want to waste energy writing this if nobody wants to read it.
First, a little insight on the ''idea'' for this: Honestly, I don't know how it happened. I was just sitting down, reading, and it hit me. Like a ذائقہ, مارنا in the face. What if, somebody came ہوم one day, all bruised? Bruises on their arms, legs, face, everywhere. And the family shows concern, and wants to know who did it-
But here's the catch: The 'victim' doesn't want to tell. They know who did it, they just won't say who. I know there are probably millions of stories like this- but I just really want to write this. I'll make it unique, my own story. So, here's the plot, characters, and everything آپ need to know for 'Broken and Bruised'.

Arizona Browning: Arizona is the 'victim'. She's one of two siblings, isn't really 'popular' around school, but well-liked. She didn't have any enemies, until now. She's smart, and funny, with a good personality. However, she can be quick tempered, so if somebody insulted Arizona, you'd know right away. She's 14, and a freshman in High School. She's a red-head, tall, and thin. She's also athletic, her biggest dream is to become an Olympic runner.

William Browning: William is Arizona's older brother. He's 16, and a sophomore in High School. Unlike Arizona, he's not totally skinny. He's chubby. He isn't a geek, and he isn't a nerd, but he cares about his grades. Most of the time, he just comes ہوم and tries to help his parents around the house- since his mother's one of those people that needs everything neat. It has affected him and Arizona- most of their binders and school things are neat too. The difference is that it's impacted مزید on William, Arizona is مزید loose.

Morgan Hatchet: مورگن is Arizona's best friend. They've known each other for a long time, ever since they were in 2nd Grade and مورگن moved to their town. They keep no secrets from each other, and is always there for each other. They're the perfect definition of friendship.

Mia Browning: Mia is Arizona and William's mom. She works as a nurse at a hospital, and loves her job because she feels that nurses have a big job, along with doctors: they help save lives. She feels that the hospital workers are like her سیکنڈ family, and they all care about her family too. She always thinks things through, and rarely loses her temper. She will, however, give severe groundings. She knows how much Arizona hates them- she always wants to be with her friends.

Mark Browning: Mark is Arizona and William's father. He's a ''protective dad'', so to speak, and he has always told his kids to aim for the best, never lower. He's a firm believer in سیکنڈ chances, and miracles, and most importantly, fate. He thinks that everything happens for a reason, so he isn't bothered سے طرف کی much. He works as a mechanic, he runs the 'shop', and feels that he has to provide for his family.

David Buck: The policeman/detective that will handle Arizona's ''case''. He'll be investigating about who did this to Arizona, and trying to get her to tell him who did it. He will play an important role in the story, and will become a close family friend سے طرف کی the end of the fanfic.

Mrs.Evergreen: She is going to be Arizona's math teacher, and will also play an important role in the story. She's Arizona's پسندیدہ teacher, and will try to aid David Buck in the ''case'' because her daughter works with him. Although, because she's a teacher, there a lot of things that only David can do and she can't.

Ashley Evergreen: Ashley is Mrs.Evergreen's daughter. She's David Buck's assistant, and helps him on most of his cases. She is also assigned to this case, so she will probably be in most of the parts of the story. She's smart as a whip, and can be a very good interrogator. She can see through any lie.

Now, they're will probably be مزید characters, but they're going to be the main characters, the ones that in the story for the majority of the ''scenes''. I promise I'll try to always use correct grammar, and be as correct as possible with the police matters, because believe me, I'm not an expert on that. It's going to take place in the present, in the United States of America, in a small town where everybody knows each other. (I know it's corny, but برداشت, ریچھ with me.) I also don't know who's POV it's going to be in either so I didn't say it. And I promise that I'm not trying to copy anyone with this. If somebody wrote a fanfic similar to this one, I promise I don't mean to ''steal'' their idea. I just got the idea for this reading a magazine. (I was reading an Emma Watson interview..) And it just came to me. I feel like I can really make this work. So, please, give me a chance. I think that I could be a good author.
