The story I have chosen to be adapted into a made for TV film to be shown on cable network only is “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner”. With the media frenzy of vampires, having a movie about a specific character would give the audience a different view. It would be told through the eyes of how a vampire fits into the feature films. The story revolves around how a young girl who ran away from home and became a newborn vampire. She finds out the reason she was turned into a vampire is to be a part of the newborn army created to kill a human. The army of newborns is mostly made up of young children and teenagers.
Even though she didnt like being a vampire she was use to it. For a newborn vampire she was quite mature. She demonstrated a great amount of self control but still found it hard to resist the scent of blood. She kept a hobby that she did when she was human, which was reading.

He has the ability to repulse other vampires which makes everyone stay away from him. He slips away to avoid the battle field with hopes that she will follow. She doesnt. She still believes her friend is alive and is waiting for her. Unknown to her, he has been tortured to death by his creator.
When they get to the battlefield she realizes that they are quickly outnumbered and everyone has been destroyed. She is the only one left. She tries to hide hoping no one will notice where she is. This is when she realizes that her friend is dead. She is found and taken to the middle of the battlefield. The head of the vampire clan they were fighting asks to have her life spared. He sees that she is a young girl and hopes to bring her into his clan. The head of the
