CHAPTER 1: 6 Months

Sunny Dale, California

For centuries there had only been one. One young girl, standing alone against the vampires and the demons. This was the slayer. A girl chosen out of thousands of potentials and given super human powers to keep evil at bay.

The slayer’s job was to guard the hellmouth–an underground portal to Hell that if opened would release the most terrible evil. For centuries the slayers managed to seal the portals only for some evil to bring out a new one.

The routine was always the same generation after generation until Helena Peabody was chosen as the slayer. When that happened, the entire history of the slayer line changed completely.

After Helena’s shaky slayer beginning in L.A, Helena moved to Sunny Dale, California, the location of the new Hellmouth with her mother Peggy and her half-sister Shane.

Change number one: A slayer with a family. It was unheard of. All slayers were completely alone except for a watcher who was basically a slayer teacher.

It was in Sunny Dale High School that Helena met her watcher Kit. Kit was the librarian at the high school and quickly educated Helena about her slayer powers, vampires, and all kinds of demons. However, before she met Kit, Helena had already made two new friends and an enemy even.

Change number two: a slayer never had friends, yet Helena had two best friends, sarcastic gossip girl Alice, and computer genius Tina. And by choosing the social outcasts that were Alice and Tina, Helena became another target to the most popular girl in school, Papi, who consistently teased the unpopular kids.

Ironically Papi and Alice ended up having a year long relationship, and she even went out patrolling for vampires with Helena, Alice, Tina, and Kit–who were often called the scoobies because they helped Helena fight evil.

Then Helena broke yet another rule, and probably the biggest rule, she fell in love with a vampire. Change number three.

Vampires by nature were soulless creatures. The moment they were sired, or changed, they lost their souls and became evil killing machines. The same thing had happened to Dylan, and she became the most ruthless and evil killer. She massacred scores and scores of people for a hundred years before she was cursed for killing the gypsy princess. She was cursed with a soul and forced to live with the guilt of all her crimes.
