Chapter Two
An Army of One
One. One against millions. You are the one. You are alone in the fight against the vampires and the demons.
You exist in the back of everyone's mind. You are the voice telling them to stay inside and lock their windows at night. You are their protector but they do not know.
You are not real to them. What you fight for is not real to them. The vampires are not real to them. All of it is nothing but an old wives' tale, and a bad one at that.
So why are you there?
To save them. That's all there is to it. You fight for the sole purpose of allowing them to live.
When you die another will be Called. So why fight? Why not just stop fighting and allow them to kill you?
Because they killed your family. They killed some of your friends and turned the rest against you. They made the town stop seeing you, made your people ignore you as they do the vampires.
So take a breath, Slayer. Take a deep breath and fight your battles. I pray you win them all.
For if not, your army of one is defeated.
