The days where dark and numbered, everything changed. I still feel like it was my fault. Death was suppose to be my gift I was suppose to do it. Make that jump, that sacrifice to save the world. But my friends stopped me. It was too late then, the portal was already opened. Now it didn’t matter whether or not I jumped. I figured it out, I know that’s what I was meant to do all alone. We shared the same blood, it was to be my blood to end it. But since I failed the world has turned. Darkness is all around us, taking control of everything. Still we stand up and fight against it. What for? Is there any hope left anymore. Even Spike died fighting for this cause. He gave his life killing Glory, it should’ve been mine. But he told me I had to stay strong that I had to stay alive. What for? Was I even making a difference? Angel said that every able hand was making a difference in this war. Yet, I was starting to doubt myself at times. I didn’t have what I used to have. Friends and family all around me were going down, one by one. I felt like it was my fault. What good of a slayer am I if I can’t even save the world.
I kicked off my boots as I entered our little shelter. Once Sunnydale went down we made our way to LA. We joined forces with Angel’s team to try and take out this evil. Although each day it seemed like the forces of evil grew stronger. We would need a miracle to get out of this one. Although I started to lose much of my hope I wouldn’t give up fighting. Still had people out there that I cared for, and of course Dawn. I wouldn’t let anything happen to her.
I sigh as I stretch my arms above my head. I had been up all night fighting against the endless creatures of the night. That seemed to be all I ever did lately, go out slaying all night then sleep all day. That’s all there was to do anymore. No more tv, going to the mall, or even just hanging with friends. Everything was a constant battle, even during the day there were little wars being fought, demons would attack those who thought it was safe during the day. Of course it wasn’t as bad during the day then it was at night. That’s why I was needed for the night patrol.
I glanced out the window and watched as the sun started to come out, slowly people emerged from their hiding places and started to go about their daily business. Don’t know what sort of life they must have, always hiding in the dark never being able to protect themselves. I sighed once more before sitting on my bed. I would need as much sleep as I could get.
