1. Bright Light (MIB)
She was walking through the streets of LA when it happened. She was 15 and had gone to the mall for another pair of shoes when she turned the corner and this thing jumped out at her.
Usually, she would have said it was a demon, not an average one, but a demon none the less. Of course, it had tentacles the size of a medium octopus and eye slits like the ones made for bows and arrows in old castles made of brick and stone where all the kings used to rule their kingdoms.
She immediately threw her hands up to defend herself and watched as it was bumpered into the wall, taking down part of the new plaster.
Hearing others coming, she grabbed her purse and bag and hid behind another wall. Four men in suits and black shades came out to check on the demon.
Someone tapped her from behind and she noticed immediately that he also wore shades. "If you'll just focus on this please," and the little thing in his hand flashed brightly. She felt something invade her but snuffed it out like a burning candle. "What you have just seen was not an alien. In fact, all you saw was a man running a red light. You will go on with your life and know that nothing when on here today."
She wondered if he knew that things like flashing lights could not take memories from someone as old as her. Five years later, she wondered if the Oracles had any idea too.

2. Talk Before Battle (Tamora Pierce's Immortal Quartets)
She faced the mass of people, evil down to the magic holding them under force. She wanted to lie down and be done with it all, but she had to save them before that.
Blood stained the ground and she knew it would never wash away; the rotted corpses stank of death and blood; not even the bad meat remained. The Stormwings had picked them over thoroughly.
Before the battle began, a great light shown down, and Daine stepped out with Numair. Aliniana greeted them, not at all surprised.
The girl and her soon-to-be lover stepped up next to her to take their places next to Alonna and the one woman that had helped them. Immortals were flocking everywhere, taking sides to get back to their own world or make a home in this dimension.
Daine stood next to her and looked her in the eyes to find pain and longing; now she knew why. "He said to keep fighting. Forever would come. He'll see you soon." She didn't know what he had meant exactly, but she was happy to see a smile on the blonde's face.
And they fought. Two years later, she met her at the baby shower, still wondering when He would come back.

3. Double Racist (Xmen)
It wasn't a very smart idea in the first place. She didn't know why she did it, but she had acted as a Nazi and it had paid off. Money was never an option so she made sure that she had what she needed. There were underground movements being held by other Jewish sympathizers and demons who were kind. Right under Hitler's nose, many people were being snuck out family by family. Some went to America. Some went to other countries. Some she even sent back to Ireland or gave homes and IDs under German names that they wouldn't be taken away for.
She knew that many people would be killed, but what could she do? But when she saw the fence pried apart, she felt for magic, no longer looking like the ordinary housewife she once had. She felt no magic and hid the running boy quickly.
"What's your name?" Kalinta asked him.
"R-Richardin Hemeli" the scared boy said.
She spotted parents running and children being pushed away. And when the guard with the scar across his nose came to check her ID, she pretended to be his big sister, just taking Richard home, and both were let go.
So when she found a man years later dressed in a funky helmet and a blue woman next to him, she wondered what had happened to him to make him hurt the world that way, but guessed she at least found part of the problem. She wouldn't want to be the victim in racism for a second time either.

4. Lightning Lady Wind (Circle Opens Series #4)
The lightning mage stood at the top of the building in the rain. Keth and the others had gone to bed hours ago, and all that was left of the wakeful populace were visitors and people in their homes.
She went down and walked around the town-the lightning striking rarely, but little stepladders making their way down to welcome the mage. The wind was not there often, but much of what was there swarmed around her. With the time alone, she concentrated on trying to concentrate to scry the wind, but she was having no progress.
There was a girl up ahead simply walking around as well; a woman she could tell the closer she became to her. The wind seemed to flow over the two of them, and the blonde girl smiled. Tris felt immediately comfortable with the green-eyed woman.
"I'm Trisana Chandler."
"I know." She told her mysteriously. The mage had no way of knowing that the wind talked to her as well. "Call me Ikani, Ikani Olisa."
Trisana smiled back at her. The blonde looked up at something, as if someone was talking to her. The girl found herself under the blonde's gaze again. "Shhh…" she whispered as if entrancing her. "Just listen to the quiet and imagine. Catch the sounds, the colors, the ghosts of time. Everything leaves a mark." There was a gentle sigh, and a sudden lightning strike rained down on her. Within a moment, she was gone and the gentle giggle whispered from her met the wind and was carried to her.
Before the latest killer ran, she did as she was bid and had to force herself not to kill him herself. The lady in the lightning held her strong and still sent her a silent congratulations through the slightly winding winds.

5. Scary Messes (Fearless)
(Post-Chosen)
She didn't think she would ruin two shirts in the same week by two different demons. She cleaned herself up after outing on a new shirt and going shopping. Two malls, 3 shopping centers, and 4 different alley blocks of stands later, she was finally refreshed. But the demon had still ruined one of her favorite shirts.
As she was going through the park in New York, she heard some noise and went to investigate. It turned out that a woman five men were drugging a blonde girl like herself and taking her away. A boy about the same age, not quite 18, was on the ground. She could hear the heartbeat, but knew he was out cold.
After following the black van (how cliché) she eventually got the information that they were going to take the girl to Rainhill. Next thing you know, the girl is going crazy in a girly outfit that the slayer just knew she would never be caught dead in, and her boyfriend is trying to find out what's wrong. 3 days after that, the government is out looking for her, and the Council is trying to catch her tail.
Whoever said that fearlessness was the way to go had it all wrong, and the new slayer next to her new as well. "So Gaia, when do you think they'll track us down?" She asked. Miss Moore shrugged, the laptop already on her lap.
"I don't know Annel. When do you think we'll want them too?"

6. Vault Trouble (Harry Potter)
(Pre-Buffy's rebirth)
She rapped on the door and a sound that echoed could be heard. Whatever was there was like a cave. Scratch that, it was a cave. In fact, it was a number of tumulus caves.'
She looked around at all the gold and glory and things from the past. After about an hour, she got bored and decided to play. Dress up was one of her favorites even after all the years. It held so many memories…
She decided to go with one of the centuries in the past where she slept. Methos had told her that he had stores things like clothing and music from the centuries that she slept in her vault here. She had thanked him but now wondered about the goblin things. She knew they weren't evil. The magic underneath their grasps holding the whole place together was felt like an ancient's quickening.
She tried a dress on with an eerie look to an old one she wore when she was about 2000 or so. She didn't remember much about her life before insanity except for a sound and some dreams of the fountain of youth and some running on the lawn.
Her and Anleum had always raced with some of the other children there. But that was long ago. She tried clothes on from a past she didn't experience and wondered when one of the goblin guys would come rescue her. She was due Dumbledore a visit every hundred years or so. He was one of the many (many greats) adopted grand child after all. And she still believed that he looked like Methos's oldest son even after all of these years…

7. Portals, life, death (SGC)
(Right after her dive in 'The Gift.')
When she fell through the portal, she didn't know where she would end up. But she recognized the army signs and knew the government was working there like you knew when you had a bug bite. And she wasn't in denial.
Her leg was broken and she was weak. Her chest heaved and her heart still beat despite the fact that she was nearly bloodless and should definitely had just died. She thought she would, for once in her god-forsaken life, get to rest in peace or get to hell and not have to think of it anymore.
But this wasn't the case as a familiar demon stepped through the portal as well, but she didn't have the energy or strength to groan. She saw the familiar man in the back and gave her last breath to let the small smile and giggle of the girl she hadn't been since before she could remember. But he never saw that in her. He brought it out in his daughters though.
With that the slayer finally died. There was no trace of lightning or quickening anymore. It faded into existence as her soul left this plane with one last prayer for her Angel. She went away as her old friend, the last of the Horseman (5 guys, 2 girls), brought her body to Ireland where it was to be buried. He didn't tell her friends in Sunnydale that it was a double that they buried, but he went to that funeral as well and was there when thousands of demons showed up in the distance to praise the final death of the one who had killed all that stood before her except the one thing that snapped her sister's neck.
In hell, that was one of two sounds that she heard. But she went to heaven where she belonged. An Angel cried.
3 months later she was back to living and pretending to be normal when all she wanted to do was go to the desert and die…

8. Unsurprises (Resident Evil 2)
She doesn't remember when it happened or where it started. But she knew they were coming. The strange thing was that she couldn't feel any magic enhancing them, allowing them to walk. Btu through her connections to all living things, she pushed. They didn't feel her or thing, if they eve did think, of her. They instantly forgot the fresh, pungent smell of the blood running through her veins.
There was some kind of enhanced humanoid that eerily reminded her of Adam until the engineered human/android saved the red head that was definitely super-enhanced. She wasn't as strong as a slayer, but Buffy thought that she would have had good potential.
3 years later though, 'Annel Winthrop' was hired to handle telepathy and telekinesis. She didn't know if she was surprised that the once-dead girl was alive or not. Two days later, the test was positive; she was another long-lost (many greats) adopted granddaughter of her's. Buffy wandered if she would accept it. She wondered what Umbrella was up to now.
………………………………
9. Double Self Dimensions (LOTR)
Buffy had no idea how se got here. She didn't know how to get back directly-it was a whole different dimension after all. But when the cute elf swept in to help her like she was some normal careless lass, she just had to get him back for that.
Of course, when he said "Lady Annel, what are you doing out here at this time of night? Your mate is pacing and Gandalf is holding his staff as a weapon." She decided that maybe this was her own dimension, and just another time.
She walked up to the room that only laid in memories nowadays, and failed when she tried not to purr in contentment. Her mate kissed her lips and crushed her to him. She shrugged and let herself get dragged up to their room.
Even if this wasn't her won dimension, he was always, ALWAYS hers. She was sure that the other her wouldn't mind a loan. It had been years since she had gotten to taste or touch him anyways.
She wondered if the Ring Holder had passed through yet.
………………………………
10. Alley Way Meeting (Mid-Summer Nights Dream)
She was simply skipping along the pavement in the stormy city when a tricky person shot across the alley nearby. Being who she was, she ran over to the dark corner. "Are you alright?" she asked the person in the darkness.
"Oh, y-yes, I guess so.'Tis just a scratch." The figure in the dark said. "I'm Puck, and who might you be?"
"You can call me wind, for the quiet in the trees and the gentle caress of a kiss." She said in character.
His eyes widened. He had heard of her. "Well," he said to himself, "I'll bargain my fairy king would love to meet such a celebrity!"
