Twilight Remixed

AN: This is Twilight remixed with some of the best teen, HS dramas of the 80's and 90's. It's complete so you don't have to worry about me giving up on it before it is complete. I don't care how many fans read and review. The entire story is written, and I'll post two to three chapters a week till I'm done. It's fun and my vain attempt at keeping Twilight alive while shamelessly promoting my own books on Kindle. Twilight should never die.

While John Hughes is the greatest, I chose to intermix this fanfiction of Twilight with 10 Things I Hate About You, and Can't Buy Me Love. (I love John Hughes, but those are my absolute favorite Teen movies.) I also couldn't resist a few nods to Ridgemont High. There are a few moments of John Hughes greatness in this. I can only hope you enjoy...

I did ponder having Rosie fall in love with Emmett (as Bender from the Breakfast Club), but it distracted from the main plot of Edward/Bella from Twilight, Jacob and Kat (from Ten Things I Hate About You) and Ronald and Claire (she's from the Breakfast Club but fills in so nicely for Cindi from Can't Buy Me Love.)

I also pondered having Rosie follow the plot of "Just One of the Guys," but it was too hard to pull off. Emmett is in no way a geek. Bella and Edward might have been able to pull it off. But I did include one character from it.

The plot:The Cullen kids have enrolled in Ridgemont High in California after Carlisle has discovered a vaccine that eliminates the dreaded sparkly skin problem. 17 yr old Bella has moved to California with her mother and new husband. Of course, she enrolls at Ridgemont High. Jakob has isn't from the Quillet tribe, he's standing in for Heath Ledger in the '10 Things I Hate about You' plot.

While the 'Pretty in Pink' plot was too much too include, don't you think Steff would make a great villainous vampire?

Like I said, this is a bit of an attempt to shamelessly plug my other books and if I get some enthusiastic love for this, I might start giving away free stuff (copies of my books.) I am launching in a week and will add the link.

But really, I'm only hoping the love for all things Twilight are not lost and love that Stephanie Meyer lets us play in her sandbox. I don't own any of these characters but thought it would be so much fun to mix Twilight up with the classic Teenage Drama's. This is my salute to Stephanie Meyer, John Hughes, Ridgemont High, Better off Dead, 10 Things I Hate About You, and Money Can't Buy Me Love.

And If you're like me and feeling the need to read FanFiction to remember the the awesomeness that is the Twilight Universe, here are some of the best I have found:

Nolebucgrl: https: u/1901714/Nolebucgrl

All of her stuff is good, but Sideline Collision is great. Her Jasper is freaking hilarious and I could not stop laughing when Edward asked Carlisle about his 'stomach problems'.

Her stuff is AH, but she captures that special bond between Edward and Bella perfectly.

Choices by Twilover76: s/7220545/42/Choices

Alice has a vision and sees the whole Twilight saga. Of course she warns Edward and Bella, before Bella even moves to Forks. Unsurprisingly, Bella comes anyway and it's just a great reimagining of Twilight. One chapter to go...if she doesn't finish it, I swear I'll help her.

I have spent quite a bit of time searching out and reading stories that start in NM just after Edward leaves and Bella is turned into vampire. There are some really good ones out there but here are two of the best. I have always just felt that was the natural place for Bella to become a vampire and that in doing so, it takes away Edward's misplaced worry about leaving her human. I still can't find a good one where Alice comes back and changes her.

Sacrifices by Enthralled: s/3940174/1/Sacrifices

This one will make you cry, it's so heartbreaking but well worth the time to read

.

Give Her Some Credit by kmwhyte: s/5322340/1/Give-Her-Some-Credit

Edward leaves Bella pregnant (He doesn't know) and she has to deliver Rennesme with the help of Angela and then turn herself into a vampire without the Cullens. Best written Bella I have seen. An awesome must read.

But what if Edward bit Bella on the first day he met her? There are some really good stories out there but here are my favorites. The best of the best if you will.

Once Bitten By: Elise de Sallier: s/7046967/1/Once-Bitten

Probably the best fanfiction I have ever read. Just freaking awesome. Maybe she gave Bella a little too much firepower, but I thought it was awesome. Jasper and Bella develop a nice relationship in this as brother and sister, and I love what she did with Charlie.

Edward's MistakeBy: LittleLlamaGirl: s/5680797/1/Edward-s-Mistake

Another great Edward bites Bella on the first day story.

Other nice twists.

Bella Hale by JulesSC: s/4668040/1/Bella-Hale

The Cullens adopt Bella when she is 5 yrs old after her parents die in a car crash. Jules 5yr old Bella is adorable and she does a great job of transitioning Bella and Edward's relationship from friend to romantic without it being creepy.

Faking It By: spanglemaker9: s/5153711/1/Faking-It

Half of Hollywood's most famous couples are faking it. That's how Bella Swan's publicist convinces her to pretend to date troubled Hollywood bad boy Edward Cullen. And she'll do anything for her band and her music.

AH but a great read since she captures the Bella—Edward bond so well.

Honorable mention:

Heavenly Scent By: Infinitypoet: s/5354611/1/Heavenly-Scent

Edward isn't attracted to Bella's blood, but he is drawn to her scent. He doesn't want to kill her, just introduce himself and get to know her. Unfortunately once they touch, they can't stand to be apart. Great read, though the ending and two chapters of the sequel are a bit bizarre.

If you want to recommend you're own fav's, just let me know.

Without further ado, I give your the prologue:

Prologue

Edward and Carlisle in his office.

"Carlisle, I don't think this is such a good idea," Edward sighed.

"Now, Edward, we have all talked about this. I think is good thing for all us and especially you. Controlling our inhuman desires and powers can't be extreme—either one pole or the opposite—type of thing. It makes it more likely to come to a quick breaking point where we snap into an uncontrollable state."

Edward shook his head and scowled. "Do you really think Emmett is going to be able to control his strength on a football field, during a game with all that excitement?"

Carlise gave him a reassuring smile. "Yes, I believe he can. He understands the challenge is not about showing off his strength but learning to control the right amount precisely as left tackle to be great on a human scale."

"But what about when somebody gets hurt and starts to bleed?" Edward shook his head. "I see him losing it and causing a spectacle the Volturi won't be pleased with. It's just too dangerous."

"That's why you'll be out there with him as the starting QB."

"What makes you think I won't join him?"

Carlisle chuckled at that. "You have too much control, we both know that. That's why I'm asking you to go along with this plan. The other kids are getting bored with the same routine and need new challenges. This is what we all came up with. Emmett is the one in the riskiest situation. It'll be good for him."

"Really, Carlisle?" What if Rosie thinks one of the other girls on the cheerleader squad is prettier than her? What if all the guys pay attention to this other girl and not her?"

"I didn't say there weren't risks. That's why I'm counting on you and Alice. I took a position as the school doctor, and I'll be at every football game."

Edward grimaced. "What about Alice and Jasper?"

"Edward, Alice is the most controlled besides you and me. We won't have any problems with her and she can't wait to compete on the Gymnastic team." Carlisle gave Edward a knowing grin. "Jasper has been doing all right and he's not really trying anything hard. He's just going out for the Chess Club."

Edward had to smirk at that. "So he's going to be nerd instead of just aloof. This, I have to see."

"Edward, keep a hold of that positive thought. If there is an incident, we'll be gone by that night and then reevaluate. But Edward, we're doing this, so accept it."

"Fine," Edward waved his hands. "I'm just very worried this is going to end with a bunch of dead humans."
