Unconditionally and Irrevocably
Preface
I'd be lying if I said that I have given little thought to how I'd die- it is not as if America is a safe place after all. School shootings, drive-bys, murder, rape, people who follow Voldemort's philosophy- but I never thought my end would be like this.
I stared, with my breath caught in my throat and my wand clenched tightly in my sweaty hand, into the dark eyes of my captor as he smiled sadistically down at me. Everything I had learned about Vampires flew out of my head, my wand merely a useless stick at this point. Did Protego work against Vampires? Doubtful, it didn't work well against Werewolves after all.
I guess, if I must die, this was as good of a way as any. Ignoring the excruciating pain of a Vampire bite, dying in the place of someone you love is as good a way to go as any. It's just if I had to die, I wish it were without regrets, and there is one thing that I do regret. Just a small thing, really. I regret dragging Edward and his family into the world of magic; I regret putting their lives in danger. MACUSA sorry, Magical Congress of the United States of America, has stricter rules than the British Ministry of Magic about revealing yourself, your magic, to others. Even if that other happens to be a dark creature. It always upset me, but after everything that occurred over the past few weeks, I now understand their reasoning much better.
I could say that if I never came back to Forks, if I had stayed with my mother, or if I had gone back to my old wizarding school, I would not be facing death now. Perhaps, but I can't bring myself to regret coming back. In Forks, I could practice magic safely in the comfort of my home. In Forks, I could go to a non-magical school and make friends. In Forks, I could fall in love with Edward. When you are given a shot at happiness, no matter how brief it might be, it is not reasonable to regret the actions that brought you there.
My captor smiled and sauntered forward to kill me. My hand tightened around my wand and my eyes screwed shut.
Hello, Everyone!
This fanfiction will follow the original story very closely. Yes, there will be chapters and scenes where things happen that aren't in the books, but the major events/talks/etc will remain the same (changes will occur in the outcome but the talks will still happen). This is more a study on how Bella, as a witch, would react to the situations as they occur in the book, rather than a completely different story.
Keep it classy, make good choices, and I hope to see you soon.
Happy New Year,
Chandlure
