Declaimer: I don't own The Slayers, just a fan. But I did make Atrium up. This is a L/V fic because you barely see any around anymore. Hope you like it but if you don't there's room for improvement since this is my first fan fic. So please read and review. Thanks

The Rebirth of a New Knight

Chapter 1: Meeting Old Enemies Making New Friends.

Lina Inverse was alone now. She had parted ways with her companions after Dark stars destruction, which was 50 years ago. Since then Lina had learned all there was to know of nightmares magic. She had master all other types including white and holy magic. In doing this she became an ageless immortal.

"I wonder how the gangs doing," Lina thought. "I know Zelgadis found his cure and proposed to Amelia and now the two are King and Queen. Gourry and Slyphel got married and had six children and probably are grandparents by now. Filia and Milgazea got married after being introduced at a dragon function. Xellos is still being the same old Xellos even though I haven't seen him in 10 years. And Val has his memories of Valgavv but still the same Val thank goodness.

Our former bandit killer finally arrived in a town near Sambowa. "Ah I could use a little r and r." She entered a tavern and was seated. Hello said a blond with one of those perfect figures who was obviously the waitress. "Are you ready to order?" "Yes I would like some water and I'll have one of your finest stakes. Well done if you please and for the sides I would like a sweet potato as well as some cabbage." Lina said to the waitress. "Anything else?" The waitress asked and then Lina said no thank you and the waitress was off to get the order.

Two young dragons had just finished their dinner and where now scooping the room for girls. "Hey Val why do yah keep staring at that red head. If yah likes her so much go talk to her. She looks young enough I would say about 16 or 17." Atrium, Filia's and Milgazea's kid said to his brother Val. "No I wasn't staring I was just enjoying the scenery in the room is all," said Val. "Sure Val just go over and talk to her it's not like you have anything to lose," Atrium replied. "Okay fine." With that Val left to visit the young red head girl.

"Here's your order miss hope you enjoy," said the waitress as she departed. A tall blue haired man sat down at Lina's table. " I couldn't help but notice a beauty such as your self was sitting alone," said Val. Lina was not eating like she did in her younger days it seems over the years she has learned manners. She then didn't looked up from her meal but said, "Wow what a great pick up line that was I bet you win all the girls hearts with that one. Right?" Lina then closed her eyes and took a sip of water. "No miss I didn't mean anything by it I was just .. "Look here buddy Lina cut in" and finally realized it was Val. She abruptly spit her water out on him. "VAL! Oh I am sorry I didn't mean to," said Lina while throwing him a napkin. "How did you know my name? I haven't told you yet. Do I know you or something?" Val asked to an embarrassed Lina. "Oh I guess not it's been a while, and you where still a kid. So let me introduce myself I am Lina Inverse sorcery genius friend of your parents," stated Lina. It was Val's turn to have an outburst. "LINA INVERSE! THE BAN.. he didn't get to finish his sentence because Lina clamped her hand over it. "Shut up! I don't want every bandit or bounty hunter coming after me." To late as if on quoi every bandit and bounty hunter showed up. "Thanks a lot! This always happens. Hold on I got to finish this." She finished her meal in a minute flat. "Now where was I. Oh yah kick you ass." Lina then placed a bag money on the table and ran out the door. "What? She ran?," said Val. "Get her!" the others said while running out the door but they only had to walk out of the tavern a little bit before being scorched by a fireball. And since her fireballs where so on target they didn't even touch the building. Val paid his bill and left his brother to help Lina. FIREBALL! Lina screamed roasting Val. "What was that for?" A confused Val asked Lina. "Oh I thought you were some of those bandits." "Yah right you knew it was me!" "Well that's what you get for giving them my location." The two continued bickering for many hours and some how finally agreed on traveling with each other.
