Chapter 1.……..

Stars Hollow………… The Gilmore house, (Lorelai and Rory's)…… Dec. 17, 2002

Lorelai came awake slowly. She then raised her head and shook it. She wondered to herself, why she had fallen asleep at the kitchen table. After what had happened a week ago with Rory and Luke's, she was somewhat weirded out at fallen asleep in weird places.

After another couple of minutes she got up and made a pot of coffee. When it was done, she got herself a cup and then walked into the living room. She then turned on the television. When she saw the news story that was on, she dropped the cup she was holding. When it hit the coffee table the cup shattered.

Rory woke up and climbed out of bed. She stretched and then walked into the kitchen. She was making herself a cup of coffee when she heard something shatter in the living room. She then ran into the living room.

When she got there she saw a broken coffee cup on the coffee table. She looked up and saw her mother standing, shocked, looking at something on the TV. Rory looked at the TV, and saw the news report.

News………

Announcer: "The Missouri State Highway patrol are still trying to figure out what happened. The only thing that they are saying is this is not the work of terrorists. But the are unsure of what was able to sink the entire city. "

It then showed a shot from a helicopter. It showed a large lake. In the lake the people that was watching saw the tops of several buildings. And almost in the middle of the lake was the top of the Arch.

Announcer: "The local Highway patrol are calling this lake, the Lake of the Arch."

Gilmore house………

Lorelai shook her head and looked at her daughter, and saw that she was crying. She also noticed that she herself was crying. They then wrapped each other in a big hug, then sat on the floor crying on each others shoulder.

Meanwhile…….. Luke's Diner…….

Jess got out of bed and turned the TV on. When he saw the news story, he quickly ran downstairs. He came into the diner proper. And went behind the counter. He went over to the radio and turned it on. He then turned and said to Luke, "Luke you have to listen to this news report."

Jess then turned the radio up so that everyone in the diner could hear what was happening. When they did their was a stunned silence.

Stars Hollow………..outdoors……

Through out town there was people standing and sitting around, in stunned and shocked silence. Several people were openly crying.

The Gilmore House……..(Emily and Richard's)……….Dec. 18, 2002

Emily was walking through the living, and she stopped when the phone rang. Instead of waiting for Maria, the maid, to pick it up, she picked it up her self.

She said, "Hello, Gilmore residence. Emily speaking."

The voice said, "Hey Aunt Emily. Its me, your nephew Matt."

Emily said, "Hey Matt. How is Sunnydale?"

Matt said, "It's great. The reason that I called is I was wondering if Maria, was there?"

Emily said, "Yes. Just a minute I'll get her."

Emily held the phone down and yelled, "Maria pick up the phone."

In the kitchen Maria reached over and picked up the phone. She then said, "I've got it Mrs. Gilmore." Emily then hung up.

Maria then said into the phone, "This is Maria. Who is this?"

Matt said, "Maria, it's me Matt. I just called to tell you that I heard earlier today, that the Watcher's Council is gone."

Maria asked, "What do you mean gone?"

Matt said, "The building just exploded. The council was inside when it blew up. I'm sorry."

Maria shook her head. She then asked, "What am I going to do now?"

Matt said, "As of right now, you and any other watcher still alive are working for me. You are to stay there. Also, I am sending a young man named, Daniel Osborne, to Stars Hollow. Every one calls him Oz. I am sending him to help protect Stars Hollow, and to protect my cousins, Lorelai, and Rory. Also, you should know Oz, is a werewolf."

Maria said, "What do you mean by sending a werewolf to a peaceful town like this?"

Matt said, "He is a good guy. And he also has complete control over his wolf side. Oh yeah. Rory already knows about vampires. But Lorelai does not. I need you to tell her about them and make sure they both , and the entire town is ready for what is coming."

Maria asked, "Matt, what is coming?"

Matt said, "I'll tell you what is coming. A War against Evil itself."
