Sunnydale Train Station late-June 1999 afternoon
The first thing terminal manager Frank Mills noticed about the freight train that pulled into the Sunnydale Train Station was it was much quieter than usual. In fact the train seemed right down dead on arrival. The train had already been stopped for several minutes yet no one had departed. Frank Mills knocked on one of the windows and yelled a greeting. Receiving no response he pried open one of the doors. The sight that Frank Mills beheld left him dumbfounded. The entire interior of the train was covered with blood! The mutilated bodies of the crew lay everywhere, recoiling in terror Frank Mills hesitantly backed away until he bumped into something. Slowly turning around Frank Mills was confronted by a tall, handsome man wearing an ornate black rob complete with hood.
"I apologize for the mess, I was famished" said the Robed Man, waving his hand in front of Frank Mills face. "Listen carefully, once I have departed crash this train into the terminal. Do you understand your instructions my slave?"
"I do master" answered Frank Mills, a blank look on his face. "I will crash this train into the terminal once you have left. Is there any other way I can be of service?"
"Where is the Slayer?" asked the Robed Man.
"I cannot say where the Slayer is. I have never even heard of this 'Slayer' before now master" replied Frank Mills.
"No matter" said the Robed Man, leaving the train. A few minutes later the terminal was rocked by a massive explosion, which was caused by the propane the train was transporting.
"I think I will like it here in Sunnydale" said the Robed Man donning a pair of sun glasses, as he walked away from the wrecked terminal. He gave a wide smile, showing a mouth full of sharp fangs. His features bathed by the warm afternoon sun shifted into a hideous configuration never been seen during the bright southern Californian day.
