Chapter Two
The Power
There are two things in life. Very real things. Everything else isn't real. It doesn't exist. Those two things? Power and weakness.
You are the Slayer. The only one. Only you fight the vampires. You are the only link between your people and supernatural death. Alone, you fight your battles. Alone, you win your battles.
So do you have power, or do you have weakness?
The vampires have power. As do the demons. And the evils. You have yourself. You have your weapons. Is that your power?
Maybe. Your weapons put you at a weakness. Fight with all of you. Take away your weapons, take away your resources, and you have nothing. Right? Wrong. You have yourself.
Being the Slayer comes with its disadvantages. No friends, constant battles, and an inner death. Can you handle it?
Are you ready to accept your destiny, Slayer? Are you ready to step forth from the crowds and grasp your power? Are you ready to fight for life? Are you ready to take on the army of the dead, woven tight with the strength and death?
Will you fight?
Do you have the power?
