Summary:

Banner by the awesome Frozen Soldier!  She is amazing!

 

 

We had survived the Volturi and were finally able to enjoy life without fear...until new threats arose.  These were more sinister than any before...because the most terrifying one came from within me...

The lead figure took a few long steps toward us, and I felt Bella stiffen beside me and heard her gasp of pain.  Hands moved toward the cowl of the robe, pushing it backwards.  The moonlight made a valiant attempt to shine through the clouds highlighting him as the angel he’d always seemed.  Bright red eyes scanned the group as a sneer claimed his face, twisting it.  He looked toward the assassins beside him, after one last cold look toward us, he gave his order.   “Destroy them.”

The family tensed at the callousness in his voice.

“Edward…” Bella breathed out from beside me.  Pain laced through her voice.

The figure hesitated only slightly as the weak light framed his bronze hair and the scar along his cheek.  Then as he turned away, the robed figures dashed past him toward us.

 “Henry!” my family screamed around me as we braced for impact.   “Remember our training,” I shouted.  “And if possible bring Edward back alive…”

 

Sequel to Harvest Moon, my Shimmer Award, Vampie, and Twilighted OC Character award winning story.

Banner by the extremely talented forthelongestday

Some would do anything for their heart’s desire. Bend the laws of physics, live a lie, defy their family, even sacrifice their mate. In their minds, the end justifies the means. But, in the aftermath, more than one life could be shattered. AU Edward/Bella; Marcus/Elena.

The hybrid continued to advance on her, forcing her higher up the mountain. He was taunting her. She knew he could kill her whenever he pleased, but he just smiled, his perfect white teeth gleaming against his smooth, tanned skin.

She felt movement beneath her. It was subtle at first; then there was another. Her body shook as the earth moved.

Then she heard it.

It was a loud roar, like the sound of a 747 jumbo jet. The mountain trembled with such force she could barely keep herself upright. She turned and her jaw dropped as a huge dark cloud plumed from the mountain. She arched her neck, taking in the massive height of the ominous cloud. She stood transfixed, feeling both fear and awe as she watched light and smoke dancing in the sky.

Hot air slammed against her face, causing her to inhale sharply, the blinding heat scorching her lungs. She willed herself to move, to run far away from the danger that loomed in front of her. Before she could, there was a loud whistle and she saw it coming –fiery rock hurtling toward her. She ducked just in time.

Behind her, the hybrid shrieked, and she spun around. She crouched, ready to defend herself when she saw him combust, on fire, and his body quickly turning to ash.

Summary:

 

 

 

"His agony defines him. His memories destroy him.

But his hope is what sustains him, feeds him, encourages him. It's his purpose. And he doesn't deny it.

Offered the chance to leave all pain and misery behind, Edward knew that it was better to suffer his loss than to forget it. For in having it, Bella remains his and only his.

To forget would be the ultimate betrayal, abandoning her once again to a world of lonliness and despair. He had already done that once upon a time, and he did so spectacularly.

He'll find her. He has to. 

HE HAS TO."

- icrodriguez (the most beautiful review I have ever received.  THANK YOU for allowing me the honour of displaying it here.  It sums up the tone of this story beautifully, hearts, Erin)

 

Left in the woods, an unfortunate run-in with Laurant and 45 years later - Bella finds herself facing everything she has ever wanted.  Does it want her back?  What will she discover about how Edward has been spending his time...

 

Rated for later chapters.

Summary:

When Bella Swan moves to Seattle to live with her father, she keeps her head down and her mouth closed about what brought her here. Edward Cullen dismisses her, thinking that no secret could be as horrific as his own.

But the dark shadows in Bella's life rival his, and put her in far more danger than he ever could. He could save her if he let her in.

Are either of them strong enough for that?

Summary:

AU Post-New Moon. NOTE- AU Hybrid Vamps:

Banner by Mehek18

Set in 2010, the supernatural world is in a crisis unprecedented, its' very structure challenged by a force yet to be seen. As this new threat sends ripples of discord and panic throughout the ranks, a young vampire and her two children, twin beings as different as light and dark, struggle to remain hidden in the shadows; away from the world they belong to.

But not for long: Embittered by the desperate state his father left him, his mother, and his sister in five years prior, Tony Swan yearns for purpose; an opportunity to let out who he truly is. No more lies. No more veils. He won't have to wait long-as his sister grows normally, he inches closer and closer to adulthood, mind and body rapidly maturing despite the few years he has walked this Earth. And yet, throughout all this, one key fact remains forgotten by the young hybrid: fate's plan is never simple.

And in a world where monsters of human and marble flesh exist, how can it be?

-------------------------------

Pulling to re-write:

Well, technically not pulling, but definitely re-writing.

I’ve given it a lot of thought. I was actually going to do this once I got the 13th chapter of my main WIP out (So it wouldn’t that bad of a shock, after all I already warned of a hiatus on its way), but so far I haven’t been able to churn out anything that could pass as a chapter that’s “in- character” in regards to the present version of my fic. It’s just…not working. No matter how hard I try to write ch.13, I keep going back to my old copies of chapters one, two, and three and re-writing them. Hell, I’m already on ch.4.

I’ve looked at my early chapters, compared them to the most recent ones, and realized that the flow, the tone of the writing itself, doesn’t match. I had a completely different mindset when I began, still figuring things out, still not setting things in stone, and throughout the experience I learned a lot. More so if I hadn’t posted in the first place. A huge learning experience, I guess you could say.

It made me remember why I wanted to write this story in the first place, and that because I was under the impression I had to conform to a framework because it was fan fiction, I put what I really wanted on the back burner in order to write/focus on what I thought was supposed to be written/focused on.

And then I finally had an epiphany: I don’t have to follow any sort of guideline. I can write what I want to write. I don’t have to have the story closely tailored around Edward and Bella, or any of the other canon characters, I don’t have to write from certain POV’s in the first place because the truth is, my story, as someone commented after looking over a past chapter I’d written, is “not really about Twilight.”
And that’ s the truth. Resent isn’t about Twilight, at least, not completely.

To the person who commented, thank you, by the way. You know who you are.

Now, you may ask, “why post a wip in the first place?” well, the truth was, I didn’t think the fandom would still be around once I completed Resent. It was 2010, the twi-craze was already dying down somewhat, and I thought it would be risky to take my time and finish the story first before posting. I thought I was working on borrowed time. Plus, I wasn’t sure if the twist I had going with my main oc’s. would be received well.

The reviews and the fact that a good number of us are still here kind of blows those pre-conceived notions out of the ballpark, to my sweet relief.

What I said in past thread posts still stands: as long as the story is posted, it is not abandoned. Hiatus maybe, but not abandoned. The fact that it is still there means that I’m still a part of the fandom. If I ever decide to flounce, there is no way in hell that I would ever leave any of my writing’s unmonitored on the internet. If I ever decide to discontinue, you readers will be the first to know.

I’m leaving the current copy of Resent on ff.net, twilighted, and twcs for these reasons, and also because I know there are some who still enjoy re-reading the posted chapters. I’m sorry if this is upsetting. I know the update schedule for this fic has been somewhat tumultuous and nail-biting, especially with how things were left the last chapter, but I feel like if I don’t say something now, I’m going to end up posting something bland and soulless. Once I’ve written enough of the new version (or completed it) I’ll pull the old version and start re-posting.

I won’t hold it against you if you flounce, just don’t tell me that you are.

Again, I’m sorry about this guy’s, but my gut is telling me this is something I have to do.
