The Slayer's Sister and The Vamp's Son
By Rachel
Dawn walked the streets of Sunnydale at night. She knew it wasn't exactly safe, but she could handle herself. A stake in her bag and a dagger hanging from her belt. She had a lot more liberty ever since the incident with Willow. Buffy let her do a lot more things.
Right now she was on her way to Janis' house, to spend the night. Ever since Buffy let her go on patrol she'd been spending less time with her friends and more time dusting vampires. Every once in awhile she would stop by Spike's crypt and see if he was back. She missed him a lot.
"Where do we go from here?" she sang, remembering the song.
She looked around and continued, only humming now. She stopped when she heard footsteps behind her. Then a muffled cry. She turned around wielding the stake and saw a vampire attacking a teenage boy. Although the boy wasn't taking it. He was fighting back. He kicked the vamp in the gut and ran.
The boy was running so fast Dawn didn't have time to move out of the way. He hit her half bumping into her half pushing her aside, Either way she fell to the ground stake flying from her hand.
"Hey!" she yelled.
She started to get up, but the vamp pushed her back down. She reached for the stake, but it was too far away. So she grabbed at the next best thing, the dagger. Dawn unsheathed it and slit the vamps throat.
He backed off of her grabbing at the wound. She ran for the stake and dusted the guy. Then she ran in the same direction as the boy.
Three blocks down, near the cemetery she found him on a bench. She walked up to him and stood there watching him, for a few moments. He didn't show any indication of noticing her. She let out an exasperated sound.
"It's polite you know, to at least apologize after you knock someone over. Even nicer to help them up." She sat down next to him, as he finally glanced at her.
"Sorry," he mumbled, looking back at the ground.
"So uh. Are you okay? I mean I saw that guy attacking you and all."
"I'm fine," he looked at her, "He didn't attack you did he?"
"Well he tried, but I dusted his ass."
Dawn realized what she just said and laughed nervously. She tried to think of a way to cover up, so this guy didn't think she was crazy. "You kill vampires?" he asked in surprise.
"Yeah. You know what vampires are?" she asked the same way.
He nodded, "My father was killed by one."
"I'm sorry."
"Don't be. Besides I got revenge."
"So he's a big pile of dust?" she smiled.
"More like buried at the bottom of the sea."
"Oh."
Dawn thought this was weird. Why would anybody bury a vampire at the bottom of the ocean? Oh well, it wasn't worth dwelling over. She held out her hand.
"I'm Dawn Summers, it was nice to meet you"
He looked at her hand a second before shaking it, "Connor. Connor Holtz."
Hesitantly he lifted her hand to his lips. She blushed a light pink, which he thought suited her.
He smirked, "A pleasure milady. Maybe we'll see each other around."
"Yeah." He got up, heading away from the graveyard. A large grin spread over her face as she walked the rest of the way to Janises.
A/N: How was that? Good bad? You tell me. I don't really care either way. Anyway I like this pairing so I decided to do a story on it. If anyone's out of character. oh well. I don't really know Connor's character that well. The only episodes I've seen with him are Lulluby and Dad and in those he's a baby. But I have read the scripts for 'The Price' 'Benediction' 'A New World' and 'Tomorrow' So yeah.
