New Moon Unofficial Film Script — Shattered Pieces (Part 2)
SEQ . EXT. Swan house’s street. Children are running about in Halloween costumes.
SEQ . INT. Swan house hallway. Doorbell chimes. Charlie is in the living room watching TV.
CHARLIE
(from the living room) Where’s the candy bowl?
Bella goes down the stairs towards the front door.
BELLA
I’ll do it, Dad.
Bella steels herself and opens the door and sees the three children dressed as a vampire, princess and werewolf.
KIDS (VAMPIRE, PRINCESS & WEREWOLF)
Trick or treat!
Bella is visibly shaken at the sight of the child vampire. She hurriedly gives them candy.
BELLA
Here you go.KIDS
Thank you!
SEQ b. INT. Swan House Living Room. Charlie hears the sound of breaking glass.
CHARLIE
Bells?
SEQ c. INT. Swan House Hallway. Charlie sees the broken glass bowl with candies strewn all over the floor. Running feet going up the stairs and then a slammed door are heard.
SEQ . EXT. Forest. Shot of wolf legs phasing into “human” ones. Agitated whispers are heard from everyone as they get dressed.
PAUL
We lost the damned bloodsucker!
The pack becomes silent as soon as the Alpha speaks.
SAM
Jake, where did you smell this new vampire trail?JACOB
He’s from the north. It’s not the same female we chased into the sea a couple of months ago.SETH
Do you think this new one is the female’s mate?LEAH
If we kill either one of them, the remaining leech will come back for revenge for sure.JACOB
If those bloodsuckers think that they can just go into our territory, they’re dead wrong. We’ll teach them not to mess with us or they’ll end up in pieces in a blazing bonfire!PAUL
Let them come! More fun for us!SAM
Brothers and sister, remember to follow our rules. Make sure it’s not one of the Cullens. We must uphold the treaty.
A chorus of protesting growls are emitted by the pack members.
SAM
I am the Alpha! You will obey!
The pack acquiesce reluctantly.
SEQ . INT. Cullens dining room.
CARLISLE
Alice has seen the possibility of Edward going to the Volturi…ESME
No!
Esme starts to moan incessantly. Alice tries to comfort her.
ALICE
Esme, it’s not certain yet. It’s just one of the many possibilities of the future. But, I do know what will cause it. Whether it’s going to happen when she’s 18 or 85, it doesn’t matter. There can only be one reason behind it — Bella’s death.ROSALIE
(suspiciously) Why isn’t Emmett here?CARLISLE
He’s out hunting at my request. I’m sorry, Rosalie, but I’ve asked Emmett to help Edward track Victoria down. I’m hoping that the search will go faster with Emmett assisting Edward. When that is accomplished, I’m also hoping that Edward will come home with Emmett so that we can watch over him.ESME
Yes! Carlisle, please bring him home.ROSALIE
That isn’t all, is it?CARLISLE
Please understand, Rosalie. Emmett is the only one who might be strong enough to stop Edward if he suddenly decides to act foolishly, such as provoking the Volturi. I told him to follow Edward to South America. (warningly) And nothing else.
Rosalie goes into an attack crouching position in front of Carlisle. Jasper goes into an offensive position as well. Carlisle holds up a hand to restrain Jasper. Esme watches, horrified at the scene, while Alice is in the middle of a vision to view the possible outcomes of the confrontation.
ROSALIE
You don’t want Edward to know that you intend to stop him if he decides to commit suicide by breaking the rules of the Volturi? Don’t you care about Emmett? He’ll be executed by the Volturi as an accomplice, even if he doesn’t help Edward with this idiocy.CARLISLE
It will not come to that. We can prevent it. Let me be very clear — I will NOT lose any of my sons! Even if it means biting Bella myself and turning her into a vampire despite Edward’s wishes!
Emmett arrives from his hunt and is oblivious to what has just transpired.
EMMETT
I’m now swimming in blood, ready to be around thirst quenching senoritas y senoritos. (laughs) That bear was no match for me.
Rosalie rushes to Emmett, crashes him against the wall, which breaks apart, all the while kissing him fiercely.
EMMETT
Wow! What brought that on? I’m not complaining, baby.
Emmett sees everyone’s strained expressions and mistakenly thinks it’s about his trip.
EMMETT
I didn’t realize you guys would miss me so much. Maybe I should go away more often.
SEQ . INT. School Canteen. Bella gets a soda and sees a group in the Cullens’ usual table. She gasps, having a flashback of the Cullens, until a movement of the group reveals it’s not them. Angela breaks away from the group and sits with her on a vacant table.
ANGELA
Bella, the guys are thinking of caroling during Christmas for extra pocket money. Would you like to join us?BELLA
I don’t sing.ANGELA
Well, actually, none of the guys can really sing. That’s why we pulled in Tori. (refers to a girl with the group) That’s the blonde girl with the short hair. She’s the only one who can really carry a tune and she’s teaching the rest of us. She used to be part of their church choir or something. She just transferred here.
The rest of the group comes nearer.
ERIC
C’mon, Bells, we haven’t seen you in ages.MARK
We miss you.JESSICA
(peevishly) Yeah, we miss you. And, Tyler here sorta feels left out with… You know. Because I’m with Mark, and Angela’s with Eric, and Tyler is…TYLER
Hey Bells, it’s cool. Just hang out with us. We’ll have a great time. We’ll sing jingle bells.
Tyler sings with gusto and gains the canteen school crowd’s attention. Bella just shakes her head and moves to an isolated spot in the canteen.
ERIC
(to Jessica) Don’t you think that was a bit insensitive?JESSICA
What did I say?MIKE
You know she’s trying to get over Edward.JESSICA
Well, I’m sorry for trying to set her up with Tyler.TYLER
Thanks. I think.ANGELA
Guys, it’s alright. At least we invited her.
SEQ . EXT Forks snow capped mountains to indicate the change from autumn to winter season.
SEQ . EXT Resort near Forks. A honeymoon couple is alone on a well-trodden path. The wife slips on the snow and her husband hurriedly catches her.
HUSBAND
Ooops! Careful!WIFE
(teases) That was just an excuse for a hug.
The husband smiles then kisses her.
HUSBAND
Maybe we should go back to our room..
They kiss again. The husband is suddenly pulled away. The wife screams as she sees her husband being attacked.
SEQ . EXT. Swan yard.
CHARLIE
There’s been another attack. Whatever it is, it’s getting bolder. The attack was near a resort. A couple on their honeymoon.BELLA
(thinking of Victoria) Is it the same vamp– person as before? They never caught whoever it was, right?CHARLIE
The earlier murders are still open cases. The problem now is we can’t identify the prints. There’s human footprints, but there are animal imprints too that are way bigger than a bear. I’ve never seen anything like it before. It doesn’t match anything we have on file. I’m not sure if it’s a person or animals that attacked the campers and this couple.Bells, when you go to town today for your errands, please stay on the highway and don’t stop or go near the woods for any reason. You still have that pepper spray?
BELLA
Yeah, dad.
This is page 2 of 3. Please proceed to the next page.

Awesome stuff Right here, I’m looking forward to seeing more, keep up the great work!

with all the hype and complaints from readers about what is going to happen with the sequel…i think that this script is perfect and i can see why the changes need to be made. i love this script and i think it should be used
January 21st, 2009 at 10:00 pm
if you don’t mind me asking,where are you getting these script pieces from???
January 21st, 2009 at 10:22 pm
Liz and Dom, thanks a lot!
Hi Hilda. I wrote all the scripts that you will find on this site. My name is Lorna Lopez. This is UNOFFICIAL, meaning it’s NOT the Melissa Rosenberg script. At the end of each part of the script, I’ve stated:
Lorna Lopez aka ATwilightKiss Notes This script version is my attempt to reconcile the literary world with the more visual medium of film. Just like in the Lord of the Rings, changes will be made to accommodate a driven story line, time constraints, and attention to character development.
Thank you.

i thought leah wasn’t suppose to be in new moon? http://www.twilightlexiconblog.com/index.php/2009/01/13/vanessa-hudgensone-more-time-with-feeling/
January 29th, 2009 at 8:22 am
Hi Sheryll. Thanks for reading. However, please note that this is NOT the Melissa Rosenberg script. It’s my unofficial version. My name is Lorna Lopez.
Regarding Leah, I’ve explained in the Notes at the end of this part:
The choice of wolves to be featured was largely dependent on Breaking Dawn. Since Seth and Leah Clearwater will become the pack members of Jacob, I thought it best to introduce their characters in New Moon so that they can already be familiar to the audience. Of course, Alpha Sam Uley is a must and Paul as well. Jared, Quil, Embry and any other members of the pack may be added, of course, but, the viewers’ attention should be focused on these five.

It’s good, a little confusing, but good. If I were the director though, I wouldn’t use this script. I am not trying to be mean, just some advice.
Well, when Edward was leaving Bella on the other page, it kinda went by in a rush. And the way the wording was put together, it was like an, oh okay, response. Edward and Bella going out to the forest and Edward saying good-bye to her there is sorta a big part. It’s important because it could really show how much Bella really loves Edward because she helplessly tries to find him again. Then when she is lost and found by Sam seems like a good part to put in there.
But, above some of the confusion, it proves that a little editing could make it a really good and enjoyable script. Good Work.
February 16th, 2009 at 10:22 am
No prob, Alisha, as long as it’s said civilly, I don’t mind. I think I’ll put in a descriptive collapse of Bella after the breakup scene just to make it clearer.
Thanks for the feedback. I hope you get to read the rest of the script.
February 20th, 2009 at 1:40 am
That’s cool:d
And Edward, by the way, you’re hot
February 22nd, 2009 at 7:01 pm
i thought Jacob turned into a werewolf a lot later and before he does, he and Bella have a ‘realtionship’. Also in his process of becoming a werewolf, he leaves Bella alone and she has the same struggle again.
February 25th, 2009 at 5:38 am
This is EXTREMELY good, but, in my taste, a bit rushed. But, it’s very good. I really like the way you’ve taken it, and the changes you have made.
March 28th, 2009 at 7:19 am
omg this is not how it supposed to go!!! this is so wrong… and where are the motocycles and bella and jacob being so tight…!!??
March 28th, 2009 at 9:52 am
Well, this is part 2, so you have to go to part 3 for the motorcycle stuff, but, let me warn you, there are details that will probably distress you, so maybe you’d better consider stopping now. thank you
April 1st, 2009 at 11:48 am
this is so terrible i am glad it is not official
May 8th, 2009 at 11:14 am
The book didn’t go like this!!!!
May 9th, 2009 at 11:12 pm
look at the movie as a MOVIE. not as an adaptation of the book.
May 12th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
WOW. totally awesome.. it’s so gorgeous. MY DREAM is only if i could play a role of bella or in any character(except the ones for boys).. wicked COOL.. love it..”,]
May 15th, 2009 at 12:01 pm
dude this is awesome. i am a guy and i thnk this script is awesome. u should start writing ur version of the next one and then send it in. i just have one suggestion. when edward leaves, in the book it has like 4 pages of blanks where bella is like zoned out. for that i thnk that there should b 4 different black screens, each with the month printed. thats all. i luv the script. ny1 that doesn’t like it have watched a lot of bad movies.
May 15th, 2009 at 12:13 pm
i have 1 more thing to help u out. when it’s talking about emmet following edward, isn’t emmet supposedly gone in Africa or is that in Eclipse.
May 15th, 2009 at 8:59 pm
Thanks, Bobby. I’ll try to add a line saying they won’t go so that it’s clearer.
May 21st, 2009 at 11:07 pm
This is the best site! got to read more
May 26th, 2009 at 6:04 pm
as much as i love your script….
I don’t think you should have Seth and Leah in there… because they don’t actually become wolves until Eclipse…
The only wolves you should have are the ones from the book…. don’t forget we can get familiar with Seth and Leah in the next movie…
July 23rd, 2009 at 5:16 am
I like it but, then this isnt how the book goes. i want it exactly like the book.
But it seems better then the first book.
March 30th, 2010 at 8:08 am
what? jacobs notsupposed to be a werewolf and who are matt and hannah?!?
October 6th, 2010 at 4:18 pm
I love this movie very much but I thought bella was going to end up being a vampire . .
