I was thinking about it the other day about who the scariest person I could think of to become a slayer could be.
Lina Inverse's name jumped out straight at me to the head of the list.
This wasn't going to be a serious fic, it turned out a bit more serious than I had intended.

(the words encased in these are from the seventh season episode "chosen")
(So here's the part where you make a choice. What if you could have that power, now? In every generation, one Slayer is born, because a bunch of men who died thousands of years ago made up that rule. They were powerful men.
So I say we change the rule. I say my power... should be our power.
From now on, every girl in the world who might be a Slayer, will be a Slayer. Every girl who could have the power, will have the power, can stand up, will stand up. Slayers... every one of us. Make your choice. Are you ready to be strong?) - Buffy
Lina Inverse in . . . Lina the Vampire Slayer
The petite healthy feminine figure of Lina Inverse, wielder of Chaos Magic, awoke with a gasp of surprise. As the words that she had heard in her dreams continued to ring through her mind.
Was she ready to choose?
Yes, yes she was. After living the life she had, Lina just couldn't say no.
After all these years, Lina's body was still that of a teenage girl although finally it was more like that of a 16 year old rather than that of a 12 year old that she had been for almost half a century.
Her powerful connection with the Lord Of Nightmares had caused her aging to slow down so much that she that it took roughly a decade for her to age 1 normal human year.
Which is how she was still physically young enough, despite her many years of life, to be chosen as a Slayer.
Straightening up, Lina firmly, mentally agreed that yes, she would become a Slayer.
In her personal space, and in her humanoid form, the Lord Of Nightmares herself cackled with glee as her chosen human gained the powers of a Vampire Slayer.
Sending shivers of unrest throughout the magical lands.
In the demon realms.
Xellos watched in stunned amusement as his fellow despicable creatures started acting as though they had bulls eyes attached to their backs with homing magics, as if Lina Inverse herself was hunting each and everyone of them personally.
In an almost unbelievable fairytale like kingdom.
Zelgaddis and Amelia awoke in their bed, suddenly feeling that something had happened to their old friend Lina. Something that was going to cause a lot of chaos.
In a forest cottage, In a peaceful glade.
Sylphiel was in her vegetable garden when she felt the change. She realized almost immediately that it had something to do with Lina.
She looked to her husband Gourry, who had been practicing his sword fighting forms not far away from her.
He had stopped in mid form, with a confused look on his face. "Lina?"
In a thriving city.
And in a popular Cafe two women, who could be seen as different as night and day with mainly one thing in common, paused and both muttered "Lina" as they recognized the familiar feeling.
Stunned they looked at each other.
"You know Lina?" They asked at the same time.
And in her special hideaway Lina smirked to herself.
"It's about time I went on another trip anyway."
AND ALL THE MAGICAL REALMS SEEMED TO SHUDDER!
The end . . . for now!
