With so much attention on the fact that [article id="1640907"]"The Twilight Saga: New Moon" swept the MTV Movie Awards[/article] on Sunday, it is almost easy to forget that there was another exciting "Twilight"-related event this weekend: the release of "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner" on Saturday. If you couldn't get your hands on [article id="1640656"]Stephenie Meyer's new novella[/article] in the store over the past two days, it's available to read online for free from Monday (June 7) until July 5 at BreeTanner.com.

"Short Second Life" is more than just a companion story for "The Twilight Saga." Meyer gave Jodelle Ferland and director David Slade the backstory of this character, so it seems pretty certain that some of Bree's side of the story will make its way into the film when it opens on June 30. While Bree and Victoria's henchman Riley were characters that readers met from Bella's perspective in "Eclipse," "Short Second Life" introduces a few key members of the newborn army that may get some screen time in the upcoming film.

Bree Tanner

After running away from home because her father beat her, Bree was so hungry, all Riley had to do was promise her a burger to trick her into becoming a vampire. She's not sure if she was 15 or 16 when she was turned, three months before the battle in "Eclipse."

Raoul and Kristie

Of the 20-odd newborns Bree is living with in "Short Second Life," these are the two that are most likely to appear in the movie. They each lead their own "gang" of newborns, with Raoul controlling most of the male vampires and Kristie directing most of the females. Neither is physically described in the book, so it's not clear exactly what they look like, but from the exclusive photo MTV received of the newborns following Riley out of a body of water, it can be inferred that they are the male and female vampires flanking him.

Freaky Fred

The two newborns that Bree befriends in "Short Second Life" are a bit less likely to make it into the final cut of "Eclipse." Fred, a tall, muscular vampire with curly blond hair who Bree guesses to be around college-age, has the special ability to be able to repulse those around him, and can slip by unnoticed by making it so that no one can lay their eyes on him. He protects Bree this way and leaves the rest of the newborn pack before they confront the Cullens in the final battle.

Diego

The clear-headed newborn teams up with Bree early on in "Short Second Life" and the two develop a chaste but sweet romantic relationship over the course of one day. Diego is older than most of the others (by a few months) and not as savagely driven by his thirst. He's described as having "dark, dense, curly hair, big, wide eyes and really full lips," and -- like all of Meyer's vampires -- he's very, very pretty. SPOILER: His second life barely lasts longer than hers does, and he doesn't make it to the final battle against the Cullens.

A few other newborns named in the novella: Kevin, one of Raoul's lackeys, and Sara and Jen, who follow Kristie. None of them received physical descriptions in the novella, so unless they are referred to by name, it will be hard to pin them down amid the rest of the army. There is also a vampire whom Bree calls "the blond Spider-Man kid" because he talks about the comic book hero and climbs walls like him in one scene.

As anyone who has read "Eclipse" knows, Victoria's army doesn't fare well against the Cullens, and neither does Bree. Still, her novella offers a unique opportunity for fans to get to know those that had once just been nameless enemies, making for a more poignant battle when the third "Twilight" film hits the big screen starting June 30.
