Alice &Edwards chess match.

   

One of the best scenes in the in the whole twilight saga, so far, is the chess match between Alice and Edward.

Alice can see the future and Edward can read minds. Alice foresaw Edward's moves, while he picked her moves out of her head in return. Most of the match was played in there heads.

According to Stephenie Meyer, they each moved two pawns before Alice flicked her king over in surrender. And seeing how there far more intelligent then humans and probably have been playing chess before you were born, they are good.

Here are the best possible moves I could conceive of; with the condition there all pawn movements.

1: Edward: Kings opening/E2-E4

Kings Opening

If you know any chess strategy you do know that a game should begin with this move.

2: Alice: Sicilian/C7-C5

Sicilian Defense

There are two common responses to Kings Opening: Kings Defense and Sicilian. Sicilian is the more common and more effective.

3: Edward: Snyder Variation/B2-B3

Snyder Variation

B3 is the best combat against Sicilian. No more needs to be said.

4: Alice: Eclipse/E7-E5

Sicilian Eclipse

Alice: topples her king/she quit

Alice saw that Edward was going to beat her.

Eclipse is my little chess invention. It was (and still is) the best move I could think of that was a pawn movement. It works pretty well.
