Authors Note: This is to the guys at Lalaine's Official Message boards, and to Lalaine. This took me a long time to write, please read and review it! I wrote about Chloe because she was my favorite Potential, and I have found only a few fanfics about her. So, here goes. Enjoy!

Prologue:

Looking out the window of her bedroom, Chloe thought about all the problems her parents are facing. Her father just lost his job and they had little money, there were car problems, and of course, Chloe worried about school. Her grades were slowly dropping, and her parents couldn't figure out why. They were concerned because Chloe always had good grades. One night they went to Chloe's room and talked to her.
"Chloe, what's wrong, honey?" Asked Chloe's mother.
"Nothing." Replied Chloe. "What makes you think that?"
"Well, your father and I think something is wrong. You grades are getting worse and you seem constantly upset about something, and we want to help you." her mother answered.
"Its just that, me and Kara got into a fight. She told me she hated me and didn't want to be friends anymore." Chloe said, as she started to cry. Kara had been Chloe's best friend since the second grade, and they were very close. "And every day, Laura, the girl who is determined to make my life hell, ridicules me. I'm buried under all this homework, and I have a feeling something bad is going to happen soon.. My life just sucks, and I don't see how it could get any worse."
"Oh, honey, we're so sorry to hear that." Said Chloe's father. "Is there anything we can do?" He asked.
"No. I just want to be alone." Said Chloe.
"Okay. Chloe, dinner will be ready in about 20 minutes. You should eat something."
"I'm not hungry" said Chloe.
"Okay. We'll save you a dish so you can eat later when you feel like it." Said Chloe's mother.
"Okay mom." Answered Chloe. Chloe was really upset. She didn't think her life could get any worse. But it did.
About 45 minutes later, while Chloe had been crying in her bedroom, she heard a crash and a scream. It was her mother screaming. Her heart started to race. She got up and ran out of her bedroom and flew down stairs. She came into the kitchen and saw her mother on the floor, covered in blood, dead. Her father was in the next room, and Chloe saw him fighting against three hooded figures. "Dad!" she shouted. One of the hooded men faced her. Chloe cried out in shock. The man had no eyes. He ran after her, and she ran into the kitchen, opened the silverware drawer, and pulled out a long knife. He approached her again and Chloe thrust the knife at him, but he dodged it. He knocked her on the ground and pulled out a long, curved blade. Chloe screamed. The other two attackers approached and held her down. This is it, Chloe thought. I'm dead. I won't see another day.
She closed her eyes, ready to feel the blade pierce her, but it never came. She looked up and noticed that the hooded men who were holding her down let go of her, and they now lay dead. "Chloe, run!" said a voice. It came from a tall man with a British accent who was fighting off the other hooded man. Chloe did as she was told and ran upstairs. At last, all the attackers were dead, and the man came upstairs and found Chloe.
"Chloe, are you all right?" asked the man.
"Yeah. Who are you?" asked Chloe in a shaky voice.
"I am Rupert Giles, " he answered.
"I-I'm Chloe" said Chloe. "Thanks. Who the hell were those guys?"
"Pack your thing's, Chloe. I'll explain on the way."

I hope you liked the prologue! I'll post Chapter 1 soon! ~Kamesama9 aka Potential_Slayer56~
