I walked slowly up the stairs.

Now that I had fully awakened, the hurt was starting to catch up with me. I clutched at my sides, the hole ripping through my chest.

I walked into the bathroom, and quickly took a shower, got in my holey old sweats, and brushed my teeth. Then I walked back to my room, turned out the light and crawled into bed.

I was just starting to drift off to sleep, when a scratching noise came from my window. I opened my eyes wide in alarm.
Maybe it was a burgular.

Or a kidnapper.

Or mass murderer.

Or maybe I’m just overreacting and it’s just the branch’s of a tree scraping against my window. I didn’t take any chances though; I reached under my bed and got my pepper spray.

Making sure to hold the spray tightly in my right hand so that I could spray quickly if necessary, I got up and tiptoed across the cold floor. When I got to the window, I hesitated. But then I heard scratching again, so I gathered up all my courage, and swiftly opened the curtains.

What I saw made my heart stop, and my breath go out with a whooshing sound.

A/N: Sorry it's so short. I'll post more when I have the points! I wrote this a couple years back (has it really been that long...?). I never did get finished, only up to chapter 8 or so. I disappointed some people, I'm sorry! Anyway, I might decide to continue writing this again if people like it... so give me your honest opinion! Thanks :)

Hello! I love Twilight! So, nice plot going, even though it was far too short. I hope the next chapter's longer!

A few nitpicks:

Now that I had fully awakened, the hurt was starting to catch up with me. I clutched at my sides, the hole ripping through my chest. Why is she in pain? Give some more insight or background.

I walked into the bathroom, and quickly took a shower, got in my holey old sweats, and brushed my teeth. Then I walked back to my room, turned out the light and crawled into bed. I don't like this. It's too list- written. Be more descriptive and don't write this in a list.

There's the list again.

What is this? This isn't right. Try '...'

Over-all, I liked it. Hope I helped.

Keep writing.

Well, quite good.
As someone who've read many books i can honestly say that this was just like reading a novel of an experienced author.

Try to write chapter 2 a bit longer. Well, actually I think you can call this first article "prelog" instead
of "chapter 1"- it is too short.

Overall it looks good, I'm actually waiting to read the next chapter. You've got my eye on you =).



You're wrong about humanity. They are your greatest creation because they're better than you are. Sure, they're weak, and they cheat and steal and destroy and disappoint, but they also give and create, and they sing and dance and love. Above all, they never give up.
