The way I took it, was the Queen piece on teh chess board was in front, as the largest piece, and pure white, to symbolize Bella and her new role!. She has immense power that came not only with her being able to control herself so well as a newborn, the stregth of which being a newborn entails, and of course, her significant role as a shield which was able to save them all from the Vulturi!. Not only after she gains imortaility, but just carrying Renesmee alone took a great deal of strength to endure, adn she "lived" through it all!. The color white generally represents pureness, which in Bella's case, couldn't be more spot on!. Along with her puritity, I feel it represents her compasion and caring, she truly is a kind person and would do just about anything for the ones she loves!. As far as the red pawn goes in the background!.!. thats something I'm still working on deciphering myself!. My theory, for the moment any how, it still needs more thought, is that it represents the Vulturi somewhat!. And how their role was reversed upon Bella's imortality and the Cullen's banding together wiht several other covens and families to stand against the Vulturi!. The red shows the taintedness of their ways, the lust for power and opression, and the blood which they need for survial, but also spill calously in order to protect themselves and hold their position!. In the book they were forced into a situation in which they did not have the upperhand and had then became pawns in the game taht pursued, much thanks to Alice and her finding of Huilen and Nahuel, and also Bella for throwing them off by rendering Jane's and Alec's gifts useless in harming them!.

heehee!. Just my thoughts though!. Thats the way I interpreted it after finishing the book!. *shrugs* You can take it which ever way you'd like ^!.^Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, the red pawn is either Bella's human life left behind and the white queen is her new life as a vampire, or the red pawn is Renesmee (half-human, has blood in her veins, etc!.) and Bella is the white pawn because she's a vampire!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well I have 2 theories
1!. The red one is bella as a human and the white one is when she is a vampire!.
2!.The red one is Nessie and the white one is BellaWww@QuestionHome@Com

********Possible Spoiler Warning *********************


The red pawn symbolises Bella as she was before she got turned into a vampire - weak and defenceless!.

The white queen symbolises bella after she turns into a vampire, and more powerful!. xWww@QuestionHome@Com
