Set in early 3rd season. Angel is back already, enjoy!
It was like any other night of patrolling, Buffy had killed three vampires already and the night was still young. It didn't matter though, she was the chosen one, the slayer and this was her life. Not much of a life, she thought as she made her way through Sunnydale cemetery. All well, at least she had Angel back, and he was becoming more and more like his old broody self every day, at least she had him. Buffy crossed through the cemetery and headed into town.
The Bronze was packed as usual when she passed it, full of drinking and already drunk teenagers. Buffy thought she could vaguely make out Willow and Xander as she went by. How she wished she could join them, but then she would have to deal with a very angry Giles next morning as a result. Maybe that wouldn't be so bad, she thought. Buffy continued to ponder as she reached the more vampire filled parts of Sunnydale, one more sweep, she decided, then it would be time to join her friends.
Buffy was just passing an alleyway when she heard a noise. A noise that always meant work and pain for her, a noise that could literally chill your blood cold in this town. A scream.
Breaking into a run, Buffy dashed into the alley. It wasn't too hard to find the source of the scream. Two vampires were dragging a young girl towards one of the more abandoned looking buildings, the girl did not look like she'd been bit yet, but had instead been bashed around. Blood was leaking from a corner of her mouth and her light black hair was slopped around her face.
"Hey boys!" Buffy yelled in a very defiant tone. The two vampires instantly swirled around to face her. "Care to pick on someone shorter and most likely more helpless than you?" The vampires let go of the girl and one charged forward.
Buffy sidestepped and close-lined him as he went by. The vampire fell to the ground and Buffy expertly drove a stake into his heart. The other vampire glared at her. "Slayer!" He hissed, exposing his fangs. "I've always wanted to fight you." "Then this is your lucky but final night." Buffy retorted.
The remaining vampire came at her, arms spread wide. Buffy leaped onto a dumpster that was on one side of the alley. The vampire went towards her slowly, not wanting to repeat the mistake of it's fallen comrade. It let out a long, menacing, hiss at Buffy who looked completely unimpressed. "Why don't you just give it up, Slayer?" It spat. "There's no way you can win." Buffy smiled, then leapt from the dumpster, onto the vampire, sending them both sprawling on the ground. Buffy was first to get up, and she threw a kick into the vampires side, knocking him down as he tried to get up. She reached down and grabbed the vampire by it's shirt collar and hoisted him up. Dangling her enemy before her she slammed a fist into the side of its head, dislodging a fang as she did so. She let go of the vampire, who staggered back to face her. "That one will cost you." It snarled and charged again. Buffy dropped down to one knee and lashed out with her leg. The vampire was caught and tumbled to earth. Buffy rolled over to it and stabbed it through the heart. The vampire let out a scream and was no more.
Straightening up, Buffy turned to look and the girl and got a big surprise. A creature was stranding over the girl. A creature that looked like a werewolf.
Buffy glanced up at the sky, no full moon was visible, how then was this possible? The creature turned it's green eyes to her. Its jaws parted to reveal two rows of sharp, white, fangs. It stood at seven feet tall, it's body covered in gray fur. Two ears stood above a almost completely animal head and a short tail could be seen poking out form behind it. It's legs and arms both ended in claws, and it was bringing them to bear on Buffy. Definitely a werewolf. Buffy looked up at the sky again, it couldn't be. Willow's boyfriend Oz was a werewolf and he could only change during a full moon. Nevertheless a werewolf was standing before her and it looked mad.
"Nice doggy, "Buffy began. "Would you like a bone?" The wolf seemed to glare at her after this comment. Then it did something Buffy didn't expect. It turned and picked up the girl and turning back to Buffy, it spoke. "Out of my way, Slayer," It growled in a low, rumbling, voice. " Or I'll kill you as fast as you killed those vamps." And with that, the wolf turned and leapt up, grabbing the wall of the alley. "Don't follow me." It snarled back down to Buffy. "Otherwise your friends at the Bronze will suffer." The werewolf holstered itself onto the roof, and, still carrying the girl, turned and vanished.
Buffy was stunned. What the hell was this thing? How could it change without a full moon and how did it know about Willow and Xander? Buffy raced out of the alleyway. She would have to wake up Giles, he had to know about this. Maybe he could tell her what that thing was and what it was doing in Sunnydale.
So what did you think? Anxious to hear reviews. Will right more if demand is great enough. Hope you enjoyed!
