"They'll come. Now, tell me about this dagger. I know the history of shapeshifters in my world. They came about six hundred years ago. They were left with only the power to shift, but they had to return to their human form eventually. So what happened on your side?" I was intrested. Pepper and I could be related.

"Okay to cut a long story short a demon created my people in a spell gone wrong and in his anger he banished half of us to earth - the shifters. My people created the Soulstone dagger created from crystalised souls to pierce dimensional walls and slay this demon. They hoped that one day the daggers true bearer would come...she would become Queen of the Lake, just a fancy title really though," I explained.
"Then one day the demon's servants held one of people hostage and were given the dagger as ransom" I said softly. " She would be able to access the Realms of the Dead and when she had slayed the demon be granted immortal life." I explained to Jessy. "It was said she would find the dagger in a reality that did not exist aka my mind. So now I guess I'm bearer and get all the freebies too." I finished while Jessy stared at me.
((Sorry I explained it all agian but I couldn't find a shorter way of explaining it))

I was listening, even though Josh and I were still facing away from the group. Now i said, loud enough for them all to hear,
"Doesn't that mean you have to slay the demon too?"

"Fortunately yes." I quipped "One day it'll pay for killing my mom".

I jumped down out of Doc's arms where I had stayed throughout the conversation and went over to Pepper, offering a hug. She bent right down to my new height.
"This is wierd." I said, I mean I'm not tall but being under 4 foot was not fun. "I don't like this being five thing."
"I don't think I like the you being five thing either." Doc muttered raising a few giggles which faded as we realised that things could be quite serious if we didn't return to normal soon.
"So where do we start?" I asked wanting to turn to Doc again but feeling the wierdness. Instead I stood by Maya who held my hand like she would a normal five year old, as gently as any mother.

"Well..." I said, "I'm guessing that once everyone who's being tested is done, and turns up here, whoever... or whatever was testing us will turn up too. ANyone else worried about what the test was for?"

"The tests were not meant as tests," I interrupted. Everyone suddenly turned to look at me. I blushed, still not used to mass attention.
"They were meant to see if we were strong enough to take the test," I explained. "All we had to do was face our greatest challenge with no fear, or at the very least, a greater courage than we faced it with before. Joshua saved Mai's life without Slayer powers, the rest of us no longer have any powers, and I faced more demons than I have ever seen in one place and did not hesitate in killing them."
"Whatever this is supposed to be, the test has not yet even begun," I told them, and despite wanting to avoid it, I am sure I sounded ominous as I did so.

"I hate it when she gets cryptic," I muttered, burying my head in Mai's shoulder, who I was once again beside.
"Why? What does it mean?" she asked, worried.
"That's just it. Avalon's honest to a fault, 'cept when it comes to demons and people she doesn't like. Don't ask. If she's being cryptic, it means she barely has a vague clue about what's going on, and we are in deep, deep shit. Remember what I was like, whenever I got cryptic like that?" I reminded her.
Maya's eyes went wide. "Oh shit," she cursed.

"Bad, bad, bad." Pepper looked at me incredulously. "What?"
"It's a lot more than bad."

((Good Point))
"Whoever you are, show yourself" I yelled " Cause mind controlling things aren't really the type of things we ignore".
