31 Nights of Frights, Dos Quatros

9. Living For the Only Things I Know

The girl in the bright orange sweater stared down at the pile of dust that was most decidedly not a man in a mask. Her bottom lip trembled as she crumpled to her knees, her khaki pleated skirt fanning out around her scrapped up knees. This couldn't be happening. She didn't resort to violence. She solved the mysteries with cool-headed logic and science. Not a wooden stake!

"You did pretty good for your first time out, Velma," Vi smiled down at the other slayer, her short red hair slipping over her eyes. "Didn't she do good, Carlos?"

"Could've been better," Carlos answered, skimming a hand over his short and extremely gelled hair. The man used more product than Daphne and Freddie combined.

"He exploded into dust," Velma murmured, her bottom lip wibbling as the truth hit her. "He wasn't just a man in a mask."

Watcher and senior Slayer exchanged a worried look. They stepped a few feet away from Velma Dinkley.

"Are you gonna tell her that it was really a girl?" Carlos hissed. "She did kiss it, after all."

"I feel that as Watcher, it's your duty to tell her she had a Katy Perry moment with the her first sanctioned slay, Trejo," Vi whispered. "I had to tell her she was a slayer. Man up already."

"Twit."

"Brat."
