Isobel knocked on the front door of the Aotea's house. She was huffing and puffing. She had ran all the way from the park. That's when she noticed that she could run super fast. The whole running fast and having super strength was cool. But it was it was creeping her out so much. How could I be a normal girl one day then a slayer the next? I can't be a "Slayer". There must be some logical explanation for this.

Leah answered the door.

"Isobel," she said sort of surprised, but half wary.

"I don't know what just happen. I was walking through the park and then these-Thing's came at me. Whatever they were vampires? And I totally kicked their asses then a put a stick or stake or whatever through their hearts and they exploded into dust or something. And then they were gone. And I like could totally take them. A week ago I would have been able to hurt a fly. Now I can run fast and fight. And I don't get it. I don't know whether I'm a "slayer" or not. Or I might be and just not wanna except it or-"

"Hey. Hey. Hey. Slow down. Come. Sit," Leah comforted her. "It's gonna be alright. You are the slayer. We're not gonna rush you into the whole idea of you being the defender of this little planet."

Isobel looked at Leah with her eyes wide open in horror. How could I be the defender of the world? God! I can't even take care of my goldfish. Oh God! My goldfish! I forgot to feed him. He's probably dead by now.

"I'm not helping am I?" Leah asked.

Isobel smiled.

"Do you want some ice cream or something? I was about to make some," Leah asked.

"Sure."

Leah led Isobel into the kitchen. She got an extra plate out of the cupboard and placed in on the bench next to hers. Leah's Dad walked into the kitchen.

"Isobel, You came back," he said.

"Yeah, I'm still getting my head around the whole slayer thing though," she said.

"Well, this is your watcher Shane Aotea," Leah said, holding her hand out in her father's direction.

"Huh?" Isobel said puzzled.

"We'll explain later," Leah brushed off. "Chocolate or vanilla."
