"Okay, we're going into the woods." Dani nodded.

Everyone was loaded with stakes and arrows. Dani, Stacy, Mari and Tiffany were there. Josh and Grace stayed at Grace's to watch over Adele and Elisabeth. If Dani and the others were caught, at least the others would be safe and could rescue them.

"I really hate the woods." Mari whined.

"We gotta save our friends." Stacy told, packing some holy water.

"Are you sure he'll be in the woods?" Tiffany wondered.

"Yeah, if he wants us." Dani replied.

The four brave girls prepared to enter.

"We gotta get them. I don't know what I'd do in a world without the Holy Grailness of Sarah, the sarcasm of Lisa, kindness of Paige, or Justin Obsession of Fi." Mari sighed.

"And everyone else." Tiffany sighed.

The girls entered the woods.

"Come and get us Alrinach." Dani whispered.

The girls walked around. Mari stepped on something electrical. She shined her flashlight on whatever it was.

"Maggie's mini television. I bet she was watching Star Trek." Stacy said sadly.

They continued walking.

"Dani…" A voice whispered.

"Who said my name?" She asked, turning around.

"Not me." They all replied.

"Dani!" The voice screamed.

"It came from that bush." Mari pointed.

They all shined their flashlights there. It was shaking.

"Come out, come out, whatever you are." Tiffany yelled as they withdrew their weapons.

Suddenly a figure leaped from the bush. Mari shined her light on it. It was Maggie.

"Maggie!" Stacy cried.

"Haaaaaaaaaaa!!!" She hissed, jumping into another bush.

"Maggie…you okay?" Tiffany wondered.

Maggie leaped in front of them.

"Mors mortis populous." She smiled.

"What the hell does that mean?" Stacy asked, pulling her bow and arrow up.

"You're not gonna shoot me. I'm your friend, you won't!" She laughed.

Stacy closed her eyes. She couldn't. Maggie rolled onto the ground. She plunged her hand into a bush and pulled three crickets out.

"Yum!" She smiled with brightened eyes.

She ate them.

"What the hellmouth is wrong with you?!" Dani shouted, pushing her to the floor.

Maggie fell back but controlled her balance. Like an untamed beast, she leaped into Dani.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!" Dani screamed.

"Shoot her Stacy!" Mari cried.

"I can't!" Stacy cried.

Tiffany ran to help Dani. Maggie pushed her into a tree.

"Shoot her!!!" Mari yelled as Maggie slashed away at Dani's body.

"I can't!" Stacy yelled.

"The hell with it! I can!" Mari shouted, grabbing the crossbow.

She aimed and shit an arrow through Maggie's right shoulder.

"Sorry Mags, but you deserved it." Mari told.

"Can you shoot all of us with your measly crossbow?" A wispy voice asked.

Mari and Stacy shined a light on the person.

It was Alrinach with ten others. He pulled Tiffany up and placed a knife to her neck.

"Tiffany!" Dani cried, getting up.

"Let's make it easy. Come with me or I slice her head off." Alrinach told.

"If you slice her neck off, we cut the part of your body where the sun doesn't shine. If it even exist." Dani threatened.

"Run guys. Go!" Tiffany cried.

"What?!" Mari gasped.

"Let him cut my neck. Run guys!" Tiffany said, sacrificing herself.

"There's no need to run." Alrinach smiled.

"Huh?" The other four said confused.

"You aren't the slayer. None of you are the slayer." He informed.

"How would you know? We know that you have to get all of us to find out who is the slayer." Tiffany corrected.

"Guess again Reno girl. You didn't finish that book. I've found a new spell. I know who the slayer is." He laughed wickedly.

"Omigod." Mari gasped.

"He has Fiona, Rachel, Paige and others. And now us. That leaves…" Stacy started.

"No!" Tiffany cried.

Josh walked into Grace's living room with four cups of hot chocolate. Elisabeth, and Grace were watching television. Adele was reading a book.

"Did you know that if the slayer kills herself before Alrinach does, then he dies." Adele asked.

I didn't know that. I guess no slayer has done it yet." Elisabeth responded, flipping through channels.

"Oooh Dawson's creek. If Lisa were here, she's swoon over Joshua Jackson." She sighed.

"Wait." Adele interrupted.

Josh turned the television lower.

"Tiffany missed a part, its crucial. This book says that for centuries Alrinach tried to perform the Ytatris ritual, which pinpoints the next slayer. He needed to wait until the 20th day of the second millennia to do it." Adele read.

"What's today?" Elisabeth wondered.

"January 20." Josh replied, looking at the calendar.

Suddenly the television turned off. Then the lights went out.

"Crap." Grace said.

Josh and the girls stayed closely together. Grace's hands trembled with fear. Her hot chocolate started to spill. Out of nowhere, a skull broke the repaired window. It smashed Grace's cup, burning her hands.

"Let's go!!" Josh yelled.

He picked up Adele and carried her on his back. Grace pushed Elisabeth's wheelchair. Vampires started chasing them.

A huge chair slammed against Josh's legs. He fell to the floor unconscious. Adele sprawled on the floor.

"Alrinach." She cried, looking up.

Grace continued to run, pushing Elisabeth. A vampire leaped in front of them. Grace turned around. At the other end of the hallway were three more.

"What to do?" Alrinach asked, walking towards her.

"Aaaaarrrrggggghhhh!!" Grace shouted, jumping in the air.

She kicked him in the stomach and socked him in the face.

"How did she do that?" Elisabeth wondered.

The vampires ran to Grace. She couldn't handle them. They placed a bag over her. Alrinach got up. Elisabeth tried to push herself. Alrinach kicked her chair. She fell to the floor. Elisabeth attempted to crawl.

"Forget about it." He laughed picking her up.

"Nnnoooooooooo!!!" She screamed.

"The collection's complete." He smiled…
