Duel:

A moon lit night, the wind was still

A lone wolf howled, across the hill

They came to battle, in the dark

Stood face to face, across the park

#

One golden hair, and deep green eyes

She brought death, as evil's prize

Who fights for light, and all that's pure

Her trust in truth, is strong and sure

#

She died not once, but twice for love

By water then earth, when she fell from above

Her sacrifice bought, eternal rest

This then was ripped, from her breast

#

The friends she left, had loved her so

They could not bear, to let her go

They brought her back, from out the light

From warmth and peace, as was her right

#

Now she struggles, with her plight

Again fighting Evil, night after night

She searches for, some spark of fire

That will burn away, her heart's desire

Of returning to, the peace and light

That was her reward, for her life's blight

#

The other is death, with raven hair

Her eyes dark brown, complexion fair

Queen of leopards, and wolves too

Her power grows, with all she's been through

#

She fights to live, she's always won

Her friend's death, made her come undone

One that was lost, He of violet eyes

She had sworn to protect, from earthly demise

#

Nathanial, Jason, Asher and Cherry

These are the ones, raven hair must bury

The Were's were killed, by a silver blade

The Vamp by a stake, that was specially made

#

For the Chosen One, at the Hellmouth site

Not knowing it was, once lost in a fight

Engraved on the side, in a silvery layer

One word accused, this was done by the "Slayer"

#

Willow, Xander, Giles and Dawn

Their bodies strewn, across the lawn

They were clawed and torn, from toes to hair

A challenge was left, upon the stair

One word alone, on the parchment of white

"Executioner" it declared, in the harsh sunlight

#

To shocked to think, to angry to ask

They both start out, upon their task

To find the cause, that took their light

They that helped them both, carry on their fight

#

With hearts turned cold, and hard as stone

They each set out, once more alone

To find the ones, and make them pay

For loved ones that, were killed that way

#

Their paths do cross, while both are lost

Each looking for release, no matter the cost

As sparks orange and red, fly in the night

Each giving in, to their need to fight

#

Sword to sword, and knife to knife

Each trying to end, the others life

They parry and duel, across the land

Weapon to weapon, hand to hand

#

As one moves forward, the other feints back

Each one in turn, pressing the attack

Using all their skill, their opponent to catch

Each comes to realize, they are evenly matched

#

They come to a draw, these powerful two

Each vexed the other, neither knew what to do

They are forced to speak, explain their claim

For both were caught, in someone else's game

#

"You killed my friends", Raven hair spat out

"You killed my family", Green eyes yelled with a shout

They continued shouting, each in turn

The words rasped out, making throats burn

#

"How could you kill them, and leave them to rot"?

#

"I swore when I found you, you'd die on the spot"

#

"I've never killed anything, that hadn't killed first"

#

"Of all things to happen, this is the worst'

#

"When did you lose the ones, of which you speak?"

#

"It was early on Tuesday, tomorrow a week."

#

"It couldn't be me, I was away all that time"

"Helping the cops to solve a strange crime"

#

"The stake that you mentioned, was lost in a fight"

"A girl named Kendra, had died that night"

#

At last they have found, a common ground

And with a solemn oath, they become bound

Together to find the ones, that took all away

They'd hunt them all down, and then make them pay

#

Many miles away, across oceans of blue

A powerful dark wizard, had more work to do

To keep two great warriors, out of his way

He must find a new crime, at their feet to lay

#

He cannot understand, it was so sweet

The bodies were left, blame placed at their feet

Still the two women, worked it all out

In the midst of their fight, as they scrambled about

#

Instead of his plan, holding them back

They were coming for him, both on the attack

Closer and closer, they will come to his lair

The Order of the Phoenix, will help them there

#

The day soon may come, when they will all meet

Until then he will gladly, send them a treat

The ones they had lost, he'll bring back from the dead

To be sent out to fight them, and fill them with dread
