Author Note/Disclaimer: We own nothing from Arrow or Twilight. Actually, we really don’t want to own anything of Twilight to be honest, but wouldn’t mind having Oliver tied up in one of our beds…alas, but a fantasy, so all we can do is pretend, with words. The plot is ours alone.
Some readers tend to think of Bella as Kristen Stewart from the movies. However, we (Meeko & Buggy) as well as many of our fellow Twilight-crossover friends tend to have different views of how we picture our preferred Bella. For the purposes of this story, our Bella is a bit more - sexy. Her character image is portrayed by that of Sarah Shahi as she is older and with a lot more attitude and brass. You can see her character image as it is linked on our profile page. While she will exhibit some traditional traits of what we know of Bella, face it. The book/movie version sucks. And for those of you that can't stand Edward - fear not. He's virtually non-existent here, as are most of the Cullens. This story is kinda all-human. Bella is a gifted individual, from the Arrow-fandom side, meta-human, with her shield. We are throwing out a lot of the normal rules and creating our own. We can assure it will be an interesting ride and we hope you enjoy it!
The story is almost entirely canon for Arrow for Season 1 & 2 with some minor tweaking to backgrounds to write in Bella's relationship to the Lance family and goes AU from there as we divert from the story (No Olicity Zone) and is entirely AU for Twilight.
