firstly i would like to thank everybody who has reviewed this story so far especially goldstranger who gave me the idea for this chapter. **************************************************************************

Liz was in her bedroom. She couldn't sleep. She had tried everything she could think of to try to sleep including reading and press ups. She eventually sat back down on her bed. It was three in the morning and she still couldn't sleep. She had been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately. In the last week she couldn't of had more than 8 hours sleep in total and it was begining to show, she had dark patches around her eyes which kinda made her look like a zombie. She sat there on her bed sitting with her arms around her knees.

One of the reason why she couldn't sleep was because of the images that kept running through her mind. However the worst was the say that changed her life forever the day she found out that she was the slayer.

She remembered it as if it were yesterday, the day that she was choosen, the day that she had first staked a vampire the day that she had lost Max forever.

*Flashback:

It had began so normally:

"come on Max i really have to go"

"I'll walk you home"

"Nah you better not my dad will freak if he sees you"

"Ok your right i will see you tomorrow"

"Love ya" said Liz walked closer to him and kissed him, he wrapped his arms around her, eventually he broke the kiss.

"love you to".

Liz began to walk home. She started to walk faster. She could swear that somebody was watching her she had had that feeling all day. The hairs on the back of her next began to rise. Somebody or something jumped her and pushed her into a nearby wall. She tried to scream but she couldn't. The guys head bent down and tried to bite her. Her eyes widened and she built up all her strengh and pushed him away.

It was only then did she get a good look at him. His face was deformed his brow was deeply set and his eyes were yellow. She looked around for a weopon any weopon, there was nothing but a bit of thin wood on the floor she quickly picked it up and ran.

She ran as fast as she could until she was sure he wasn't following her. She stopped and spun around trying to see if he was following her. Suddenly he was in front of her again trying to bite. He slammed into her. She lost her balance and fell to the floor stake in her hand. He landed on it and it went into his heart he exploded into dust. Liz lay there on the ground for a few seconds almost in a dase. Then she heard clapping.

"well done Liz" a man emerged from the shaddows.

"What? how do you know my name and what was that thing?"

"You have been choosen Liz"

"Choosen? Choosen for what" said Liz slowly backing away.

"To become the slayer"

"What's a slayer?"

*End Flashback.

Liz stood up and begun to stretch her legs. She had an idea. Her mum always said the best way to get to sleep was a glass of milk. She got up a pulled a robe around herself and walked to the kitchen. Aparently faith also had the same idea. She was sitting at the table with a glass of milk and a slice of chocolate cake.

"couldn't sleep either than huh" liz said while pouring out a glass of milk.

"Nah i just had a craving for chocolate"

"no the feeling"

"So why couldn't you sleep then?"

"I just kept thinking about things?"

"what kinda things?"

"stuff"

"Stuff?"

"I was thinking about the slayer who came before me how did she you know die?"

"vampire, she was kidnapped by a vampire who tied her up and killed her, we i got their to late to save her" faith said the last part with a lot of emotion in her voice.

"ohh sorry i didn't mean to upset you"

"don't worry about it, you didn't know, although im supprised that giles didn't tell you though"

"me to"

"So what else is on your mind then" said faith trying to change the subject.

"Max"

"Max as in your Ex?"

"Yeah thats the one, i just really really miss him"

"I know but its part of the job description of being the slayer"

"yeah i know" Liz stood up and walked back to her bedroom.

Liz went to her room and layed down.

*******************************************

She was fighting it. Liz was fighting the demon. It was at least three times bigger than her. Faith was on the ground about a metre away from her covered in blood and liz wasn't sure if she was breathing or not. The demon was blue and scalley and had yellow beddy eyes kind of like a goat. Its mouth was massive it had four rows of teeth and it had a tale.

Its tale wrapped around Liz ankle and throwed her aggainsed some gabbage cans. Liz felt a couple of rips crack she managed to get to her feet. It was fast. Very fast. It was in front of her in an instant. It grabbed her by the neck and lift her off the ground. It began to squeese. Liz could feel the life dripping out of her and then everything went black.

********************************************

Liz and Max both sat up in bed at the same time both sweating. The had both seen it
