"But I'm just 16!" Mary Margaret said.
"The current Slayer was 16 when she was called," said Fr. Marcus. "But in all likelihood you will never be called, and live out your life like anyone else."
"She'll never be called for sure if that Harbinger gets its way," pointed out Catelyn. "He was trying to kill her!"
Fr. Marcus nodded. "Last night, my contact at the Council, a Roger Wyndam-Pryce, called me warning that such attacks were taking place all over the globe. I wasn't able to put into effect any extra precautions yet between then and now. Luckily, the Sanctuary spell seemed to be enough—this time."
"You don't think this over?"
Fr. Marcus laughed—a dry, somber laugh the likes Catelyn had never heard before, and very much did not want to hear again. "We are dealing with the First Evil, children. It is never over."
