A NEW DAWN

Introduction

I felt a need to add this introduction page before anyone actually started to read the story. I had previously posted this story a year ago, and while most readers loved the story and read it multiple times, there were a few who didn't enjoy the story for a couple of reasons. However, I am reposting the story because I believe it is an incredible love story.

Due to the few who didn't enjoy the story, I have created this introduction as a way of allowing those who might not enjoy such a story to opt out of reading before they even start.

My story involves the addition of a completely new character and the story is told from his point of view. While many of the original characters have a part in the story, it does not specifically revolve around any of the 'main' characters. My story starts during the last part of "Breaking Dawn"- but involves a completely new ending and continuation beyond the book.

I do not believe that an author should have to forewarn people about the various storylines or plot twists in ahead of time- that is what makes a story fun to read. Stating such would be the same as posting a spoiler, which takes all of the fun out of actually reading the story.

Therefore, here are some vague disclaimers-

If Bella is your favorite character, you probably will not like this story.

If you are a diehard Twilight purist, you will probably not like this story.

If you are a social conservative or are a prejudice person in any way, you will not like this story.

However-

If you love romance and emotional angst, you will like this story.

If you enjoy action sequences and true kick-butt heroes, you will like this story.

If you are the type of reader who likes surprises, you will like this story.

If you are an anime fan, especially yaoi anime, you will really love this story!

So with all of that being said, I request that you please do not use the 'Review' feature to ask questions- if you want to know something, send me a message directly. I also ask that if you post a review, please do not post any storyline spoilers (without stating such)- that is just plain rude and disrespectful for future readers. Just because you might not like the content, does not mean others won't- so don't spoil their enjoyment because of your own personal views of certain subject matters.

If you enter with an open mind, I do not believe you will be disappointed.

Thank you.

Prologue

It came as no surprise to any of us, that he wasn't included in Bella's memoirs; after all, it wouldn't make for good reading if the heroine of the story found herself playing second fiddle to someone else at the end.

As expected, most people believed that the Twilight series was simply a work of fiction, but for those involved, we know the truth. However, leaving him out of the story completely was a tad bit harsh in any case, although, this opened the door for him to share the true account of what happened during the climactic standoff between the Cullens and the Volturi, and the terrible tragedy that followed.

His name is Brady, and this is his story.
