Dress Distress
In a dark street, there was a house. It had been deserted for years. It still looked deserted, but someone was living there. Ben looked out on the street, daydreaming of Buffy. He thought about how beautiful she looked in the moonlight. He then saw something out of the corner of his eye. He saw Buffy wandering along the street. He quickly ran out of the house, then, as quietly as a mouse, followed her.
Buffy felt like she was being watched.
"Hello, anyone there?" Buffy asked. She continued walking, but still felt like she was being followed. "Maybe it's that guy again" Buffy thought, and looked behind her. Nothing. She went on.
Ben felt like revealing himself to Buffy at that moment, but resisted. "I have to decide when to reveal myself to Buffy at some point, but when would be a good time?" Ben thought.
"Tomorrow night! That will be the time." And with that, wandered back to his house to plan what was to happen and find something to eat.
Buffy was releasing her frustrations on not being able to find this monster, whatever it is, on the local vamps. They were falling to dust like rain. She then wondered back home to fix dinner for 4 people, feeling calm.
"I'm home!" Buffy called as she went in the door. Then noticed a package lying on the doorstep. She unwrapped the package, to find the most beautiful black dress. It had thin straps and was made of silk. There was a note inside the package, which read: Dear Buffy,
I saw this dress and thought of you. You suit this dress and I want you to wear this when you meet me at 12:00 AM tomorrow to find out who I am. I'll be at Weatherly Park. Come alone
Love,
?
"Dawn! Harry! Draco! Where are you?" Buffy called. They rushed down the stairs and saw the dress.
"Is this from the same guy as the rest of the stuff?" Draco asked, curiously.
"Yeah." Buffy confirmed "And he wants to meet me at Weatherly Park at 12 midnight tomorrow, wearing this dress."
"OK." Dawn said, surprised. "I thought it would not come to this. What will you do?"
"I'll tell the Scoobies in the morning. I'd better get you some dinner. Pizza sound good?" Buffy said.
In an hour, there were pizza boxes on the floor. The 4 people were sitting on the couch, contented with the meal.
"That was good!" Harry said.
"I'd second that!" Dawn said, smiling.
"This isn't happening every night!" Buffy exclaimed "And I think it's time you went to bed."
The 3 teens reluctantly went up, except Harry, who made himself comfortable on the couch. Buffy however, was pacing around her room, thinking about what to do about this 'thing' that seemingly loved her.
"I could meet him, I mean, I'm the Slayer and have defeated many monsters. As long as I take some stakes and a crossbow, I'll be fine." Buffy thought then went to bed.
Ben was planning on how to woo Buffy.
"I could rob some more jewellery stores and find her some jewels to go with the dress. Or just try to be romantic. Or kidnap her. I like the jewels with kidnap." Ben thought then went off to feed and find the jewellery that he wanted to give her.
"Buffy, why'd you call us for a meeting this early?" Xander asked, tiredly. It was 7 AM and the Scoobies were having a meeting.
"Because, I got this and this." Buffy explained, showing the note and dress.
"That is one beautiful dress. Can I have it?" Anya asked
"No, cos' I need to wear it at the meeting with this 'thing'." Buffy replied.
"I can see why he got it for you." Spike said, smiling.
"Look, I'm gonna go to see this monster thing, but taking some supplies with me." Buffy said.
"No, you are not! This is dangerous Buffy." Spike said.
"But, Spike, my middle name pretty much danger!" Buffy said.
"Look, I'm going."
With that the meeting was abandoned, and most people went back to bed.
Ben was looking at the stolen stuff. There was a tiara, a cross pendant and a ring, all of which were diamonds. There was also a body on the ground, which Ben fed off.
"Ah, she's putty in my hands now!" Ben thought. Then started to plan how to get her.
Night soon fell and 12 was fast approaching. All of the Scoobies were looking after Dawn, Draco and Harry.
"I wish you'd reconsider. Oh by the way, you do look gorgeous in that dress." Spike said.
"No, I have to do this." Buffy said, then lightly kissed Spike on the lips.
"Good bye, then." Buffy walked out of the front door. She walked quickly to her destination. She walked through the tall gate, then suddenly knocked out.
"Sorry Buffy, I had to do that." Ben whispered, then took the Slayer's body and carried it back to his home.
