Sunset Well, the Volturi did come for the vampires who so embarrassed them so much in the clearing that day. But, due to Alice, Bella, and Siobhan, they were defeated every time - and eventually wiped out. Unfortunately, this presented the vampires with a huge problem: who was to take over? As they talked among themselves, Stefan and Vladimir eagerly volunteered, but everyone else pointed out their coven was too small. In an act of vengeance, they attacked - and were likewise eliminated. Now the situation grows desperate. The Cullens have just received word that the other covens have all declared war on each other, and on the Cullens, who aren’t currently in the fight. Though most of them - Emmett and Jasper especially - want to go and do battle, Esme is unsure about what to do and Carlisle is extremely reluctant, as he very well knows they’ll be fighting those he once considered friends. And to top it off, Renesmee has reached full maturity, and they can’t bear to lose any of their members in the current situation. But in the end, Carlisle and Esme give in, knowing they’ve got no other choice. And despite Carlisle hoping they can be mature about it, the rule book’s been thrown out the window and the other covens are struggling to conceal their existence. The din of war hasn’t escaped La Push, either. Jacob and Quil have overcome the obsessed feelings they experienced when they first imprinted, and now they utterly regret it. Embry wants to join the war, and is nagging them so much Jacob’s threatening to kick him out. Seth’s efforts at diplomacy are failing. And it doesn’t exactly help the situation when Leah imprints on the last person she, and anyone else, expected. So, all in all, a big mess for Jacob’s pack. But things change for the shape-shifters when a stranger arrives at La Push. Luckily for Jacob and Quil, he’s a chronologist and knows a lot about time travel. He agrees to help the desperate Jacob and Quil get out of their sticky situations as near paedophiles in exchange for shelter. For the two pack-mates, it’s a brilliant solution. At least they think so. Because when the stranger’s identity begins to unravel, Jacob’s and Sam’s packs are caught in a catch-22. This man could turn the tide of the war, but he could also blow the secrets of the mythological world out into the open. Too valuable to lose, but too dangerous to keep - and what of those who seem so similar to him that keep arriving? And when he reveals himself for what he really is, Jacob and Sam realise they’re caught in the war, whether they like it or not. And then Emmett Cullen complicates things further when he arrives at La Push, begging to join their side… ---- Tell me this is a horrible, too long summary! Argh, I can't believe I'm doing this!

Cool. Tell your sister I say thanks! Wish I could up-rep myself. I'm going to a lot of trouble to provide you with a parody that will FAIL, and quite honestly, I'm surprised you haven't up-repped me for Aftermath or the Sunset summary yet. Speaking of which - what did you think of the summary? |

No, you're not creeping me out. Ah... Sweetdang? I've got a prologue for you... ----------- Prologue Jacob had not come. There were days when he didn’t come, when he was far too busy protecting La Push and the Quileutes with Sam, or simply leading his pack. On these occasions there was a three day interval between visits, but this time round, a week had passed, and there had been no word from him. Nessie was worried, I was worried, and Edward was confused. Almost nothing on Earth would have prevented Jacob from seeing Nessie. I stood, with Nessie, watching the forest for any sign of movement. She paced backwards and forwards, glancing at the trees every time she turned around for another lap. Edward was walking around the whole forest, trying to see if he could find Jacob. I was considering going up to the Cullen house to talk to Emmett - out of all of the Cullens apart from me and Renesmee, he was the one most friendly with Jacob. Perhaps he could talk with him and find out what was going on. Six and a half years had passed much too quickly. Now Nessie was fully matured, and the time was ripe for Jacob to claim her. I wasn’t sure how they both felt about this, and neither was Edward - he said the both of them were keeping their thoughts securely locked up. But at least Nessie would be happy with him; she did speak very well of Jacob and found him amusing. All Edward and I were asking of him was to not hurt Nessie with his awesome strength and speed. I picked up a sudden movement in the forest, and I immediately tensed. After barely seconds, however, the mover appeared. Though it was Edward, I knew I couldn’t be too careful. It could have been anyone… and in these once again dark times, nobody could be trusted. Until the coven destined to rule the vampire world took the reigns, this war would not end. The Volturi, now gone, would become a scarcely distant memory. “None of the members of the pack are out there,” he said quietly as he walked towards us. “Something might be happening at La Push, Jake might be sick - I don’t know. He’s too far away for me to be able to read his mind. Actually, now that I think about it - nobody was out there… I could hear my own breath, it was that quiet. Spooky… and I got the horrible feeling I was about to be attacked at any moment…” My mind turned this new information over, and then Nessie and I slowly nodded. “Delaying his visit by another day won’t do any harm, I’m sure. And besides, it’s getting late and it’s very stormy - I’m not surprised he’s not coming now. I’m sure we can both wait. This war might be taking up a lot of his time, you never know, and anyway -” I was interrupted by a growl of thunder and a flash of blinding white light. Nessie screeched. “AARGH!” Edward roared as he dived out of the way. I sprinted into the safety of the shade, my head cowering under my raised arms, a terrified Nessie following along. Once I had lifted my head up again, I looked curiously at Edward. He pointed, his arm trembling, in a north-easterly direction. I looked, and I took a step back in horror. Nessie had grown rather fond of a particular tree, an evergreen with a branch that was high enough for a swing to be attached. But after tonight, she would swing on it no more. The bolt of lightning had been such that it had caused a spark, which lit the tree, and now it was a raging inferno. For once I felt lucky that it was a stand alone tree, otherwise the flames would have spread. We watched it burn until it was no more than a blackened, dead trunk with protruding, spookily stiff branches. Edward took a quietly sobbing Nessie in his arms and carried her back inside to put her to bed and soothe her. But I remained outside, looking at the dead tree, in particular looking at the white strip where the lightning had struck the tree. I looked at the blackened remains of Nessie’s swing, which lay in an odd circle around the base of the tree. Little did any of us know it, but the events of that fateful night were a taster of things to come. |

HMM HMM CLIFFHANGER YAY! Also, why didnt they try, try to do something? A tree is burning up -wouldn't you just try to save it? Instead of standing there to watch it. Ok? One more thing. Screaming "ARGHHH", and having trembling arms is not very... edward like. Whats more, its cause he saw fire. He's an all-mighty vampire. Fire worries him? Anyway. Cliffhanger = good = great = got me there wanting more. Good job.

Thanks. Stormy night - no water - was there anything to do? He's ice cold and heat + ice = melt. OK, he wouldn't have melted, but the fire would have caused him serious pain at the very least. And so what if it's not Edward like? Wouldn't any person run from a fire - apart from the firemen, but they don't count - and would he want to be seriously hurt by the fire? (See above.) Thanks again. |

Then it turns out even better! But you don't sound very happy about the fact you get to - unintentionally, of course - mock him.
