Alright so after consideration I've decided there is going to be at least three chapters – It's the only way I could fit everything it. Thanks for reading! Please read and review and enjoy!

'Mom?' I said in disbelief. My voice trembled. 'Dad?' Did they do this? How did they find this place? So many questions raced through my mind. What the hell were they going to think? There was no way I could lye my way out of this one.
It was then I noticed the gun across my mom's chest. Now that was a gun. It was huge and didn't look at all military. It looked like top secret, like something developed in one of our lab's. But that was just rediculiuous.
'Urm…' Andrew said meekly. I breathed a sigh of relief. At least I had more time to think now. I grabbed Oswin's arm and looked at her with scared wide eyes. She did the same and then gave me a gentle smile. 'Guys? Can't this wait till later?' Andrew continued and the earth shuddered again. It was so violent I thought it might actually open up and swallow me whole. Maybe not such a bad alternative, actually. I screamed horribly as the ground was ripped from my feet and tore open beneath me. I landed flat on my back wish a gaping hole in the ground beside me. Scorching, sticky lava was spilling across the sides as steam filled the room. If I didn't know better, I'd say it was hell.
'Mille!' Cried a jumble of voices. I could hear mums the loudest and dad's a close second. In an instant my parents were by my side as a sharp stabbing pain seared through my head. All of the girls surrounded me.
'Urgh…' I sighed. 'I think I hit my head.' I don't know why I pointed it out, it was the only thing I could think of. I pushed my body up despite the heavy feeling in the pit of my gut telling me to stay down. I know it'd heal quickly, Slayer strength, but it still absolutely killed.
I felt dads arms around my shoulders, steading me from falling flat on my back.
'Who are you?' Dawn demanded. 'And what are you doing here?' She pointed her sword towards him. I swallowed nervously as the ground continued to shake. Not violently like befor just a shudder, like a mini earthquake. Mom looked at dad and smiled sheepishly as she grabbed my hand. Dad grinned too.
'I'm her father.' Dad said. 'I'm the Doctor.' Doctor? He wasn't a Doctor. He was an investigator.
Dawn spluttered and stared at my parents. I pulled out of my parents grip and rubbed my temples. My head stung and I was pretty sure it was bleeding, this helped none with the confusion.
'The Doctor? As in; The Doctor?' Andrew shouted, a massive smile plastered across his face. I looked up at Dad who nodded happily. Dawn stared at my parents. What the hell was going on?! The floor was still shaking. How did Andrew know my dad? Why the hell was he calling him Doctor?
'Rose? You must be Rose Tyler.' Dawn asked in amazement. Curious-er and flipping curious-er. Mom smiled. How the heck did they know my parents?! Wow, this was crazy! I'm going to wake up in just a few short minutes. Oh god, please let me wake up. I worked so hard to keep my lives apart and now they'd mixed. Dawn, Andrew, the Slayers… and my parents?
'Yeah,' mom replied. 'Why have you got my daughter?' She pulled the axe out of my arms. I could have easily kept it but I didn't resist – that would only lead to more questions.
'Training,' I said quietly. I knew it was an effort for them to hear me but it was a greater effort for me to tell them. 'Mom, Dad, I'm a Slayer.'
'What?!' Mom bellowed. Of course she didn't know what that was. How could she?
'What?' Dad echoed looking surprised – which surprised me, too. He looked understanding and not in the least bit angry – just scared. 'What?'
'I… slay vampires.' I said awkwardly, my voice hoarse.
'Yeah – I know what… you do.' Mom said. I thought my mind was going to implode. How on earth could she possibly know what it is?! Let alone what we do?! Did Dawn tell her? No, Dawn wouldn't do that. Would she? 'Why? Why you?'
'It's not a choice, Miss Tyler, Doctor.' Said Andrew. Of course it's not a choice!
'How long has this been going on?' Dad asked scanning me with the proto-type screwdriver.
'Millie's been with us six months, now.' Dawn said. 'But we had no idea, you… That she was your… It makes sense really.' Was everyone going insane? In no universe did any of this make the slightest bit of sense!
The ground stirred. It let out a horrifying groan and then a deafening rumble. Everyone clung to each other or the furniture. I had no idea where Oswin had disappeared to.
I was about to go flying because of my loss of balance but mom caught me. 'Thanks,' I said softly. 'Mom?' I decided I had to ask. 'Why are you here?' She looked to the ground and then back at me shamefully. She opened her mouth to say something but dad had a revelation.
'Blood! Her blood.' I touched the back of my head. Ooops.

I yawed loudly and pulled myself up out of the bed and shrugged the covers off. Urgh! 1 pm. I punched the buttons on my phone to get five minutes extra but I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep. I tossed my phone back onto the carpeted floor and my hand brushed a sheet of paper. Guess breakfast was on me today. Toaster pancakes it is.
'Sorry, sweetie, we had to nip out for a while, don't know when we'll be back… Love you loads mum and dad. Xxx'
Yes! No doubt Mill's had gone out 'Slayer Training' so I had the house to myself. I'd never got the whole Slayer thing. If you ask me it's all a bit pointless. And why did it always have to a be a girl. Feminism's really moved on…
It's about 2pm now, I clambered out of bed and checked my phone again. I stubbed my toe on the laptop and cursed under my breath. Damn stupid machine. Five missed calls. All from mom. This could not be good.
The annoying ring went on for a while and I couldn't help but panic slightly. I pulled on a clean (well… clean enough) t-shirt and waited for her to answer. Finally, she picked up.
'Mom?' I asked groggily. 'What's happened.'
'It's your sister.' She said hastily. She was a little breathless. 'Ry, she's in the hospital. No, don't worry. She's had a bang to the head – were sure she'll be fine. But then there was running and… well she fell, I know – God I should have caught her. Anyway, she's lost a lot of blood and we need you to go meet her. Don't leave her on her own, okay. '
'Okay,' I sighed. God, I hoped she was alright. We fought, sure. I kinda hate her, sure. But she's my sister. What if it was serious. I know there's no need to panic, Slayer healing, right? 'I'll call you when I get there.'
'Ryan,' She added. 'There's something we need to talk about, later, okay.' The phone rang off. 'Love you.'
Sluggishly, I pulled on yesterday's jeans some socks and my trainers. I grabbed my hoodie and my phone and headed down stairs.

'Ry?' I asked. He was stood at the door way.
'Oh, God Mill's. Not again! What happened?' Oswin stood up, nodded at Ryan and made space for him on the bed. He sat next to me.
'It's mom… and dad…' I said sleepily. This really knocked it out of me. I could feel myself heeling and the transfusion had helped, I guess but damn, did I ache all over. Mom and dad had to leave – they were helping Dawn and the Slayers. They hadn't wanted to leave but I'd told them they had to. Without them then something seriously bad could happen. They hadn't told me much about what they knew, only that they did, in fact, know about Slaying. My eye lids felt so heavy. I don't really remember much – just that I fell. They said I'd lost a lot of blood – I just remember Dawn telling us all to get out.
I didn't have enough energy to talk so Oswin filled my brother in on the details.
