QOTV Chapter Outline 1

I'll be honest, I'm not sure if anybody here actually wants to see what my writing process is, but what the heck; it's content, and it's good for days when I don't have the motivation to do anything worthwhile. So, hey! Have some of my old ideas that didn't make the cut for my wacky fanfiction.

This literally came straight from my Google Docs; I cannot stress enough how crude this outline is. These are all just notes for me so I don't forget anything, and it's...y'know what? Just trust the process. It works, clearly, as I have two finished full-length fanfictions already. As you can see, I had a lot of ambitions for these books, and after hearing some criticisms after my first few chapters I eventually edited it into a second outline which I will share with you in the next chapter. But, since you're already here, let's enjoy this trainwreck of a plot!

I wrote down each chapter by their number (in Roman numerals so I wouldn't forget; I swear, I could probably do algebra in them at this point), the perspective the chapter was in, what would be included in the chapter, marking whether or not it was finished with highlighter (now italicized, for your convenience), and a description of the chapter itself, the quality of which varies greatly depending on how into the idea I was and what sort of phase I was in at the time. Now with that out of the way, please enjoy cringing at my past self.

----------

(Finished) Prologue: Archie discovers a mysterious and magical clearing in the woods. There, he finds a strange cave with an even stranger humanoid creature living inside it. The creature then throws him out of the meadow, and Archie scampers away and vows never to return to the woods.

(Finished) I: We meet Lunalis and she explains about her life and the voices in her head. Flash forward to Raven and Lunalis in their den when Ramos and Scorpio enter. Ramos starts causing mayhem and Scorpio starts fighting back. Ramos ends up winning and knocking out Scorpio, and hurts Raven. Eclipse then takes over Lunalis' body. She turns Ramos into some sort of mutant freak. She then kills Scorpio and scratches Raven in the face. Lunalis comes back to her senses and blames Eclipse for her brother's death. Ramos disappears and Raven is terrified of Lunalis ever since.

(Finished) II: Toby and Steve tell Krel about the Battle Of The Bands 2.0. They get excited and advertise it a bit more. Goes through school with many reminders of his sister's absence. Then, after school, Douxie comes running to them and informs them about Archie's injury and his encounter with the creature in the woods.

(Finished)III: Lunalis is in archery practice with her peers. Mystere and her clique anger her, and they all are sentenced to three extra hours of archery practice. Lunalis' friends invite her to come to the Alpha's newest performance afterwards. She declines, and they resume practice. In the extra time afterwards, somebody purposefully steps on her tail and she launches the arrow deep into the woods. She goes to retrieve it, and ends up following a hiking trail made by humans and finds Arcadia Oaks.

(Finished) IV: Gang gets the full story about Archie's encounter with the wolf-man. They get in contact with the Area 49B military. They try to find their way back to the clearing but the cave has disappeared. Using a Plan B, they decide to set traps all around Arcadia and try to catch the creature. Toby tells them about the BOTB and they decide to draw it in by relocating it to the woods.

(Finished)V: Lunalis returns to the spot every day since she found the overhang. She likes watching the humans interact and talk. Then, one day, she finds them setting up for the BOTB. She sticks around to see them perform, and ends up getting drugged by Archie, who's posing as an average cat. She tries to fly away, but ends up fainting and crash-landing onto the stage.

(Finished)VI: Lunalis wakes up imprisoned in Area 49B. She's taken to a very large holding cell where she stays for 2 days. Then, Krel & gang show up one evening.
