Hiya people! I've brought an update! Yay! But I kinda think of it as a filler. Nay! Well, I do, don't know about you. Well, enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. Why? Because if I did Dark Angel wouldn't have been canceled. And if owned Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Riley wouldn't have been a character. So yup yup. Don't own, don't sue. If you do...Well, good luck taking what I don't have! ;)

Note: Last chapter I made a small mistake, when the vamp asked Buffy who she was, I meant to put what. I've already fixed it, but thought you should know.

Reviews!

the voice of: Hehe, here's the update:) As for the pairing, I don't know. There might be one, there might not. It depends on how the story goes and what mood I'm in when I'm writing. ;)

lildevil0644: Thank you! And by anyone else, did you mean Buffyverse? Or do you mean see her interact with people from DA?

Shadow High Angel: Oh wow, your making me blush! I swear, you are! XD I'm glad you enjoyed it! Hehe, I really didn't think anyone would like the fight. I suck at describing them, and I never like how they come out on paper-er, virtual paper. XD- They always come out better in my head. But yeah, I'm glad you liked it. :) Normal huh? That would be funny. Hehe, I can totally picture it. Normal would bust a gut! XDDD

enchantedlight: Thanks! Here it is!

Vixen2: Hmmm...Yup, you have some good points. Thank you:)

Knight Wulf: Hehe, here it is:)

Tanydwr: Thanks for your insight! You ask some good questions. Hehe, that would be interesting to find out huh? I think it would be hard to see who would win. Though my money would be between the Familiars and Buffy. Love Max and all, but someone before made a few points and yea, I think Buffy would beat Max. -shrugs- That's what I think anyways.

Pipinator89: Spike huh? I dunno, some people have mentioned him or Angel. Hmmm...Anyways, here ya go!

MaxS452: Oh! Yes I did! I got pretty much all my Christmas shopping done! Thanks for asking:) Can you believe I never thought of Matt Sung? I a bad girl, I forgot all about him! No Scoobies huh...Well, I'll take it all into consideration. I'll have to see what possibilities I can get when I make the decision. Yeah, Max would probably remind her of Faith, heck, she reminds me of Faith. Yeah, and then Sketchy drooling at the sight, or OC getting jealous. Hmm, I dunno about those meetings. I'm split on whether to follow the story line. A part of me wants to but another wants to throw it out the window. I'm thinking maybe a bit of both? -shrug- I guess I'll get to that when I get to that huh? As for why the portal was there...Hehe, I'd go with the latter.

Thanks to all you for your reviews! Please, keep reviewing! It makes me update faster. Feel free to make suggestions, the story isn't set in stone. If I like your idea or it fits the situation, I'll use it. :)

A week had gone by, and Buffy had little difficulty settling in. She had gotten used to running the store from around dawn until a little after a lunch. Jamie would join her during peak time, and then head out to do who knows what. Later she would arrive and take over, letting Buffy have the rest of the day to herself. She didn't complain though, for it gave her a chance to get out.

She had hoped to have gathered information on where she was. So far she had gotten the year, that she was indeed in America, and that mostly everywhere was like this, trashed and poor. She had heard people complaining about something called the pulse. She still didn't know what that was, and opted to ask Jamie if she had any old newspaper clippings. But when ever she was about to, something came up. It was maddening really. She wanted, no, needed answers if she was ever going to try to go home.

She had bumped into a couple of vampires the last few nights while searching for information, and managed to dispose of them using the scythe, but she believed it would be hard to explain to a cop if they found her carrying such a weapon. So she had sneaked into a nearby hardware store. She had easily sneaked in, gathered what wood she deemed durable and quickly left. She had carried it back to Jamie's and carved herself a stake. It had taken her a while, but she had managed to do it while hiding it from the redhead.

Now she sat at her beds edge, stake in hand, starring at it. Today she would officially patrol, fall back into old patterns, since it was quite obvious vampires were here. She stood up; putting it inside the jacket Jamie had gotten her. Quickly she made it to her window, opening it. She made to lift herself over it but paused. She could easily stay here; lead a normal life while trying to find her way home. She didn't have to patrol; it wasn't her destiny in this world anymore. For all she knew this place had its own slayer. She could just focus on getting back home.

She thought of the possibilities, but before she could make up her mind, she was already out the window and walking down the street. She knew that no matter, she could not give up slaying. It wouldn't matter if there were a hundred slayers or a thousand; it was a part of who she was. Over time, the slayer in her and Buffy Summers had become one, they had bonded. If she gave up one or the other she would be incomplete.

Not only that, but she attracted trouble. She hadn't even meant to bump into vamps while she had been out scouting the area. They and the forces of darkness where attracted to her. No matter how hard she could try to lead a normal life, someone would get hurt because of her. She paused a little as she thought of Jamie. How long before they figured out where she lived and came after her? She couldn't tell her not to invite in anyone at night. It would be too weird and awkward. She would ask too many questions. So she would stay with her for now, until she deemed it too dangerous.

Quickly she climbed over the fence into another sector as they were called, and kept walking. She eventually climbed over another fence into yet another sector.

After a while she had made it to a club called, "The Crash." She had found it while exploring Seattle. This was where she had found quite a few vampires lurking. She had easily disposed of them and now she was back. She had a feeling this was the equivalent of "The Bronze."

She entered quickly, made her way to a table where she could see everyone and everything. She quickly went and grabbed herself a beer, but didn't drink any. Her last experience with beer wasn't that great. But if she didn't seem to be here to drink and party she would be out of place. She hoped she didn't seem too overdressed. She had a red halter top with a black leather jacket and some nice jeans along with some heels.

Jamie said they had been her older sister's before she had died during the pulse. She hadn't really asked how, but had given Jamie her condolences. She had said it was ok, and that she was free to use her clothes since they had fit her perfectly. She had even taken them out of the boxes she had stored them in and placed them in Buffy's drawers and closet.

Now she looked ready to party and have a good time. Her neck was left very exposed as she was playing the part of live bait. She grabbed her beer as she pretended to take a small sip from it. She sensed them all over. This place was crawling with them. She would have to be careful though, since most of the ones she had faced earlier this week seemed to be newborns and she had faced them in small numbers. There were enough here to form their own nest and then maybe have a few extra left over.

She sensed one heading her way, she looked up and saw a man about five foot seven with black hair heading towards her. He gave her a flirtatious look and she smiled back. "Hey there beautiful, you alone?" he asked her as he reached her.

"Like, yeah! I'm totally alone," She pouted cutely as she gave him her ditzy blonde act, "I've been so bored lately! No action what so ever!" she continued, her pout turning into a sexy grin.

"Well I've got a couple of friends who wouldn't mind giving you that action." He said grinning big probably thinking he had scored himself dinner and maybe some.

She smiled, "Well what are we waiting for?! Let's go then!" she said excited as she stood up.

He smirked, "Let's head out back…" he said grabbing her hand and leading her away. She saw him nod to some of his friends and saw them follow closely behind. They went through a door and came out into an alley. He stopped, and she pretended to bump into him.

"Umm, why'd we stop?" she asked tilting her head, staring up at him curiously.

He turned to her, smiling, "Well, we're gonna have some fun." He said referring to his friends as well.

"Here?"

"Yes, here." He said as he bent towards her.

"Umm, ok." She said as she felt him kiss her neck. She had to contain herself from shivering, "I think I'll just be going back inside mmk?" she said backing away, keeping her act on.

His smile turned feral as his face changed, "I don't think so!" he said grabbing her arm.

"Big mistake." She said grabbing his hand and quickly twisting it. She pulled out her stake as she quickly flipped him onto the floor, staking him. She turned to his friends. There were around six of them. She could take them easily. They stared at her, shocked.

"What? Slayer got your tongue?" she asked and then blinked, "Slayer got your tongue? Oh god! I can't believe I just said that!" She said somewhat horrified.

They glared at her as they proceeded to attack her. She staked three easily, the last three were cautious though. "What are you?" asked one with brunette hair.

"What? You're telling me you've forgotten about me? Aren't there any slayers here to keep you in your place?" she asked mockingly.

"Slayer?" asked the tanned one.

She blinked, "Oh you've got to be kidding! You've never heard of the slayer?!" she asked somewhat angry. They stood quiet, watching her every move. She sighed rolling her eyes, "You know. One girl chosen to take on the forces of evil. Blah, blah, blah. She alone has the power and strength to take on all the vampires and demons in the world. Blah, blah, blah. Basically I'm going to kick your ass." She stated as she felt a pang of hurt hit her. Giles loved to say that part. She quickly buried that, for it could leave her vulnerable.

They glared, the brunette growled out, "Never heard of you."

"Yea well you better get used to me. Because I'm here to stay." She said throwing her stake to the side. She heard the third and final vampire turn to ash and hit the ground. Her stake clattered to the floor.

The other two stared at her wide eyed. "Look, see what he did? He tried to sneak up on me. Very stupid idea. See what happened to him?" she asked pointing to the pile of ash. "That'll be you in about thirty seconds." She said as she quickly flipped to were her stake was and they charged.

The tanned one threw a punch that she blocked and followed it with a head butt. He stumbled back as the brunette kicked her. She fell back and promptly flipped up staking him. The tanned one stared at her, uncertainty in his eyes. She wondered what he would do and it was soon decided as he took off running. She sighed. "Why do they always run when they're outgunned?" she asked herself as she threw her stake. He turned to dust as she slowly made her way to the pile and grabbed it.

She looked up at a roof nearby, "I know you're there. Make sure you get the word out. The slayer is in town, and I won't stop until you're all dust." With that said she dusted herself, making sure she looked presentable and walked back into Crash.

The female vamp blinked. How had she known she was there? She had kept out of sight, hadn't made any noise…So how? She sighed. She had been following the girl whenever she saw her at night. She would pay for killing off her henchmen. She growled, for it had taken her a long time to get them.

"Slayer huh." She grumbled to herself as she walked around the roof. "You will pay. I'll see to it. There are more of us than you. You are one, we are endless and can easily make more." She mused to herself. Quickly she left the roof and headed home, a plan already forming in her mind.

Hehe, hope you enjoyed it! Please review and tell me what you think! I'll get the next one out ASAP, but remember, I'm working know so yup. Later!
