Slayer dream

Slayer.... Slayer... Come to me..

I will my swords into my open,empty, pale hands.

Even my dreams are realistic.

Go figure.

In every life I've lived I've willed these swords.

Even as the times change my two Khopesh swords never fade.

My two Khopesh swords appear out of a shimmering light.

The blades curve into a hook at the ends.

All the better for stabbing and slashing.

I hear the luring voice again.

Slayer... Come to me....

I turn toward the source.

A figure looms in the room behind me.

I can't see it's face.

I just know it's not friendly.

I stand up taller.

"I'm not afraid of you." I say.

"You should be,Slayer." It replies.

Wake up Echo!

I jerk upright out of sleep. My mom is standing over me frowning.

"Get ready now!" She orders.

I roll my eyes at her and she slaps me right across my mouth.

I hurry away from her and open my closet door. As my mother stomps out of my room.

I quickly change into black clothes and sling my backpack over my shoulders.

I run down the attic stairs then the main ones my black combat boots pounding on the steps as I ran.

I grab my truck keys and head out to my truck.

defing the dark.

Have you ever wondered what it's like after dark?

When everyone is sleeping in their beds safe and sound?

Well let me tell you; it's not as cool as it sounds.

I know first hand.

Evverynight I slip out of my house and go hunting.

I hunt vampires for a living.

Literally.

The vampires I hunt call me the Slayer.

So I adopted the title as my own.

After I feed. I go Slayering. Ha ha.

I am half vampire, half human.

A daywalker.

I need blood like any vampire ,but I protect humans.

Not feed on them.

That's just too weird and disturbing.

I have all the powers of your average vampire.

Super speed, super strength,super agilty and fangs.

I wasn't always the Slayer, I was actually a bad vampire.

Once.

I slip into bed and close my eyes.

My body screams with the pain I recevied.

I smell the blood before I see it.

Yum. Fresh prey.

I lick my fangs and start stalking my prey.

I launch onto my prey and plunge my fangs into it's neck

Slayer....Slayer.... Slayer....

I take my fangs away from my prey's neck and look around.

Vampire Slayer?

It can't be talking about me can it?

I leave my prey and walk under the waning storm.

A both of lightninging strikes my back sending me flying.

I hit the ground and I do not stir.

I awake to the sun.

That can't be right. I'm a vampire.

I'm allergic to the sun.

I run my tounge over my teeth.

Well, I still have fangs.

That's a good sign. Right?

Then why am I not burning from the sun?

I scrath my head lost in thought.

Am I a daywalker?

That would explain most things.

Like how I'm not burning from the sun.

Like how my craving for blood isn't as strong anymore.

Then I remember last night.

I was struck in my back by lightninging.

I look into the nile river.

My reflection is there.

Gods!

I'm a half breed!

I look closer at my reflection and my eyes are no longer red like they should be.

They're blue like the nile.

I dip my hands into the nile and my finger is sliced on something.

"Ouch!" I yip.

I feel around in the nile's banks and my hand brushes cool metal.

I grip it where it doesn't hurt and pull it out of the water.

It's a Khopesh blade.

The latest weapon in ancient Egypt.

I set the blade aside and again reach into the water.

I pull out yet another Khopesh sword.

I search the watewr again and find nothing.

I stare at the two blades.

Suddenly something inside of my body flexs then snaps.

I hear the voice again.

Slayer...Slayer..Slayer..

Is that what I am?

The Egypt oracle predicted the Vampire Slayer among them.

Gods!

I'm the Slayer!

Wake up Echo!

I open my eyes and check the time.

I groan.

Time for school.

bump in the path

I take a run on the forest path.

I look down at the ground trying to think of that figure.

I have my ipod on shuffle and I press play.

Pink's Blow me one last kiss comes on first.

White knuckles And sweaty palms from hanging on too tight Clench your jaw I've got another headache again tonight
Eyes on fire, eyes on fire And they burn from all the tears I've been crying, I've been crying I've been dying over you
Tie a knot in the rope Trying to hold, trying to hold But there's nothing to grab So I let go
I think I've finally had enough I think I maybe think too much I think this might be it for us Blow me one last kiss
You think I'm just too serious I think you're full of shit My head is spinning, so Blow me one last kiss
Just when it can't get worse I've had a shit day You've had a shit day We've had a shit day
I think that life's too short for this Want back my ignorance and bliss I think I've had enough of this Blow me one last kiss
I won't miss all of the fighting That we always did Take it in I mean what I say when I say "there is nothing left"
No more sick whiskey dick No more battles from me You'll be calling a trick 'Cause you no longer sleep
I'll dress nice, I'll look good I'll go dancing alone I will laugh, I'll get drunk I'll take somebody home
I think I've finally had enough I think I maybe think too much I think this might be it for us Blow me one last kiss
You think I'm just too serious I think you're full of shit

My head is spinning, so Blow me one last kiss
Just when it can't get worse I've had a shit day You've had a shit day We've had a shit day
I think that life's too short for this Want back my ignorance and bliss I think I've had enough of this Blow me one last kiss
Blow me one last kiss Blow me one last kiss
I will do what I please Anything that I want I will breathe, I will breathe I won't worry at all
You will pay for your sins You'll be sorry, my dear All my [inaudible] [inaudible] crystal clear
I think I've finally had enough I think I maybe think too much I think this might be it for us Blow me one last kiss
You think I'm just too serious I think you're full of shit My head is spinning, so Blow me one last kiss
Just when it can't get worse I've had a shit day You've had a shit day We've had a shit day
I think that life's too short for this Want back my ignorance and bliss I think I've had enough of this Blow me one last kiss
Blow me one last kiss Blow me one last kiss
Just when it can't get worse I've had a shit day You've had a shit day We've had a shit day
I think that life's too short for this Want back my ignorance and bliss I think I've had enough of this Blow me one last kiss

I bump into a warm body and I look up.

Straight into the Greek god Zeus's eyes.

Okay so maybe he's not a greek god but he's still pretty cute.

His name really is Zeus though.

"Sorry, wasn't looking." I say.

Apparently I had drifted off the path straight into him.

I hit pause on my ipod and he reads the next song .

"Skillet? You listen to Skillet too?" He says looking into my eyes.

I swallow, my throat suddenly dry.

"Yeah, I love their song Monster ."

"I do too. See you in school." He replies looking nervous.

He leaves and I continue my run, back home.
