Here is the story structure for the Twilight plot: Exposition Ultimately, Edward saves Bella from James’s attack.STORY BREAKDOWN STRUCTURE OF TWILIGHT SCREENPLAY In an attempt to protect Edward, the Cullens, and her parents, Bella evades her protectors and is willing to let James kill her if it means keeping everyone she loves safe. Bella again demonstrates her loyalty to both her blood family and the Cullens, her new chosen family, when the vampire James sets his sights on her.

And as their relationship develops, Bella’s devotion to Edward is so strong that she decides she’d like to become a vampire so they can be together forever. It doesn’t bother her that being around Edward is dangerous and could be deadly for her-she cares so much for Edward that the thought of living without him is more painful than the possibility that he’ll kill her. But she has no issue getting close to Edward, and she even finds his scent “intoxicating.” She’s also the only person whose thoughts Edward can’t hear. Bella is a bit of an anomaly, as most people can’t stand to be in close contact with vampires. As Edward switches between ignoring Bella, being mean to her, and rescuing her from near-death situations, Bella throws herself into figuring out Edward’s story-and she discovers that he’s a vampire. However, Bella isn’t interested in any of them-a boy named Edward Cullen captures her attention because he’s gorgeous and, for no apparent reason, seems to hate Bella. Much to her surprise, she’s something of a curiosity to her classmates and quickly has three boys vying for her attention. Bella believes she doesn’t relate well to other people, so she doesn’t expect to fit in in Forks at all.

Bella cares deeply for those around her and wants them to be happy above all else-this is why the novel opens with Bella moving to Forks, Washington, a town she loathes, to live with Charlie so that her Mom can travel with her new husband. She’s very intelligent and observant, though she’s physically rather uncoordinated.

The protagonist of the novel, Bella is a 17-year-old high school junior.
