Summary: Lina is died. All her friends have left her, and she had to make a choice become a pawn for the Lord of Nightmares or live a life of loneliness. Lina and Gaav pairing. Please rr.

Author note: I DON'T OWN SLAYERS, but I wish I did.

Warning Lina will be a bit out of character.

Chapter One:

Lina POV:

It's been so long since I have seen my friends. Or should I say my so called friends. They left me all alone with the animals of the forest as my companions. I have fought monsters and saved the world but all of that doesn't matter.

I guess I should be happy for them, but I am not. Selfish I know. Gourry the man I thought was the love of my life repays me for almost throwing the world into utter darkness by leaving me, and marrying his childhood friend, Sylphiel. I got over it eventually, after destroying several bandit gangs of course. Besides I am Lina Inverse, and there's no time to dwell on something you can't have.

Fillia and Xellos have become a couple. I am happy for them. Xellos need someone to bug the hell out of. And I am happy for Zelgadis he found his cure, and soon after he proposed to Amelia. She couldn't have been happier. I am glad she found her prince.

But, it suck I am all by myself. Sometimes I wonder what they would think if I was dead. Would they morn over me? What would they say at my funeral? Well, it's getting late and I need to get some sleep because tomorrow comes bright and early. Joy.

End of Lina's POV.

Lina woke up bright and early she ate her breakfast and left the town after doing so.

Lina POV:

Ah what a beautiful morning. She thought to herself as she walked along a road going through a forest hearing the birds chirping to the morning sun. Well it's not so bad not having anyone here because at least I don't have to answer stupid questions such as where are we going.

Lina was suddenly jolted back to reality when a fireball was hurled her way.

"What the hell?" she said as she easily dodged a fireball. The fireball hit a near by tree.

When the smoke cleared she looked up at her attacker. The person was standing on a tree branch ten feet away. To Lina's surprise it was a girl with blue hair in a long single braid. The girl wore black armor, and had blue tights and a blue shirt underneath her breast plate.

"Well, well looks like my sources weren't wrong after all," said the girl after jumping of the tree and walking closer to Lina.

"Who the hell are you? And what's the meaning of attacking me?" asked Lina.

The girl stop walking and her lips curled into an evil smile.

"You're Lina Inverse are you not?" asked the girl.

"Who wants to know?" said Lina in a battle stance.

That made mysterious girl smile even more.

"I Sherria, general of Lord Dynast have come to kill you," she said.

"Tell me a me one I haven't heard" she thought out loud.

"Unless you decide to join the monster race," Sherria said.

"Not in this life time, guess you'll have to kill me," said Lina as she held up her hands preparing to cast a spell.

"What a shame to waste so much power on an idiot like you," Sherria said as she unsheathed her sword.

Lina barley had time to throw a fireball as Sherria teleported behind her, and stabbed her through the heart.

Blood squirted out of Lina's chest and dribbled down the side of her mouth. Sherria took the bloody sword out of Lina's back, and Lina instantly fell to the grown soaking in a pool of her own blood.

"Now that's what I call a back stabber", she laughed as she cleaned off her blade and sheathed her sword.

"Looks like I over estimated you Lina Inverse. You're not as good as the rumors say, and then again I didn't give you much of a chance to fight. If I did I probably would have shared the same fate as the rest of the people who have tried to kill you," said the blue haired general as she stood over Lina's fallen body.

Wow so this is how it ends. But, I am not ready to go I haven't even had a husband or children. I haven't done all the things I've wanted to do, thought Lina.

It's getting dark … so dark thought Lina. And then suddenly a bright warm golden glow blinded her. She was in a place that looked very familiar. She looked around and only saw an empty void of nothingness.

"So, this is where you go when you die. Ha even in death I am alone," Lina said out loud.

"Not exactly Lina," said a female voice from behind.

Standing in front of her was a beautiful woman with blond golden hair wearing a black dress. What made her different from anyone else Lina had ever seen, (which I might add has been a lot of people) where her eyes. They were solid black. It looked like the pupils were lost in the pool of darkness. If she had seen her on the street she might have thought this woman was blind, but due to the light shining in the woman's eye Lina knew she wasn't.

"Long time no see, Lina," the woman who looked to be a goddess said.

"Um … do I know you?"

"Of course you do silly, I am the Lord of Nightmares," she said like it was the most natural thing in the world for her to be standing right in front of Lina.

Lina fell to the ground due to shock, but quickly gained her composure.

"Well, I guess you want to know why you're here, right?" asked LON.

Lina nodded.

"To be honest I could see you weren't happy down on earth so I gave Dynast the idea to kill you," she said sheepishly.

"YOU WHAT?" yelled Lina.

"Don't get your panties in a twist. I'll send you back if you want but, only after you hear my proposition," she said.

"Okay I am listening," Lina said after she calmed down.

"Alright here's the deal. I'll send you back to the past a 1000 years from now. You'll be reborn as the daughter of a rich mother whose half demon, and a father who's half black dragon. It'll change history of course, but history needs to be rewritten. Anyways you'll look the same, and have the same first name, but your last name will change for obvious reasons. Also you'll be more powerful, and I'll send someone to teach you various forms of magic. Then 1000 years will pass and you'll become my Knight of Chaos. During your time in the past you'll find your soul mate and be quite pleased when you return to this date," she said.

"Or you can return back to the lonely life you have, and die and old unhappy woman. So what will it be," she asked.

Hum this is a hard one thought Lina. Gain infinite amount of power, find someone to spend the rest of my life with, and have a purpose in the world hum… hard decision here.

Lina spoke, "I want to return to the past. My life has no meaning. Oh, can I be taller and have bigger breast."

LON smiled and said, "Sure, any more questions or request?"

"Yeah, who is this soul mate you have in mind for me?" asked Lina.

"Oh, now that is a secret," she said wagging one finger in the air.

So, that's were Xellos got it thought Lina.

"Come on please tell me," Lina asked with puppy dog eyes.

"Ummm…… okay," LON said.

"Gaav the Demon Dragon King," was her reply.

"WHAT", Lina shouted.

"Well, you asked," replayed LON finding Lina's reaction very amusing.

Hum, that might not be so bad, thought Lina.

"Plus then I don't have the balance swaying in the gods favor," she said smiling.

"Hum okay. Anything is better than this place. Also I want to go to my funeral to hear what people say about me after I am gone. I want to see if I had an impact on anyone's life," said Lina.

"Whatever, but, you still can't return to the present if you visit your funeral because if someone where to see you that would only turn out for the worse. So, are you sure you want to do this?" said LON.

"More than sure, let's do it," replayed Lina.

End of Chapter One.

Hope you liked it. Please review. Thanks. I know it's kind of cheesy but if someone would volunteer to revise it before I send out the next chapter I would be greatly appreciative. Thanks.

Next chapter you see what people say about Lina after she's gone, and she start her new life 1000 years in the past as one annoying ass baby.
