Forthright: An Alternate Announcement


Here [to the left] is a little peek at the crib that Bella, Alice, Rose and Esme set up for the baby! I know the chapter seems to have a tragic turn... but the story will have a happy ending!! That is a guarantee!

Here is how it was going to go at one point, before I switched a few things around:

Originally, while the guys were off with the Wolves making battle preparations, Bella was going to call Edward and ask him to come home so that she could tell him everything.

While she was upstairs, she heard screams and crashing sounds from downstairs, so she rushed down to see what was the matter. All of this was happening while the phone was ringing, before Edward picked up. Bella dropped the phone at the bottom of the stairs from shock when she saw that the women were captured by the Guard. Edward was able to hear what was going on from what members of the Guard were saying to the women. He is on the phone, screaming for Bella to run and get out of there. Pahandus "has a really good ear," as we will find out later... he knew there was more to Bella's pulse than her own heartbeat alone... which is why he returned (but that's a story to come).... so anyway, he has a really good ear and can hear Edward on the other end of the phone. He kicks the phone into a corner and stomps on it, destroying it. He doesn't wait for Bella to come with him willingly... instead, he just takes her. However, I decided that her going willingly was necessary for something later in the plot, so I rewrote it. Plus, I wanted Edward and the other guys to find out about the scene in a different way...

This is just one example of how I think I have a plot completely written out, and last minute adjustments are made that go and alter so many things!

To those of you who read "Forthright," or any other fanfic of mine, as ever, have fun reading!
