Part 11
The demons and vampires all gathered together. It was time to compare notes. The bartender brought over a large bottle of O negative blood and a whiskey chaser. The Polara demon rolled his eyes but, as he was not paying he could deal with the blood after all vampires were so damned predictable. He mixed it with the whiskey. He was not found of chasers. They all waited as their leader came to the head of the table. "Report, how goes operation dead slayer?"
The reports came in on how they were setting up the queen and her heir and how several other slayers had been located and were being tracked and marked for elimination. The demon lord smiled and went to the head of the room. The bidding war on the slayers began. After all you had to buy into the game.

Dawn raced to keep up with Buffy. It was so not fair. She was the tall one. Yet Buffy moved with speed and grace that was unbelievable. She dodged students and found her way unerringly to the professor's office. Dawn marveled at how Buffy could move so fast in three inch high heel boots. It was just not fair. She was in trainers and she could barely keep up. Damned slayer genes she gave a grateful sigh as they came up to the office. At least I got my morning workout.
Buffy knocked on the door and headed inside. She was greeted by a receptionist who called to see if the doctor was available. The two Summers women took a seat to wait.

Faith and Xander walked into the demon bar with confidence and ease. The place was like all other in that it was dark and dank. Faith ignored the stench but decided then and there this place was going down. Maybe she and B could come by later and torch the place. If she did it now with Boy Toy only she would never hear the end of it. She sauntered up to the bar and said. "I want a drink for me and my boy here. Make it chocolate milk."
The human demon hybrid turned to face her. Faith grinned it was clear the big guy was trying for intimidation. He was so out of his league. "You look a bit young to be in here sweet heart. Got some id? If not I have to ask you to leave please."
"Ah flattery will get you nowhere." Faith said. However, she decided that maybe this demon was not all bad.
"Well let's see, nope must be in my other leathers. Hey you got id Boy Toy?"
Xander looked at Faith and rolled his eye. "You did not bring id? No wallet either I bet."
"Nope just some cash,"Faith said with a smirk. "Sides you are driving."
Xander pulled out his license the old one from Sunnydale and handed it over. The demon looked at it. His eyes budged and he looked back at Faith. Without a word he pulled out a bottle of chocolate milk and two glasses which he immediately cleaned. "Her you go Mister."
The bar fell quiet. No one was used to Ox being so polite to customer's especially human ones. The bar was suddenly attentive to the two strangers.
Faith smirked and Xander rolled his shoulders. "Thanks for the milk." He said. "Milk Faith, since when did ya drink that?"
He was about to pay when Faith tossed a ten onto the bar."Yeah, I am trying to change. I mean I want to live to see 30."
Xander nodded and smiled he picked up the milk and said. "Well it beats warm beer or yak's spit."
Faith grinned.
The name Faith might as well have been shouted. The bar all froze in place. Faith sipped her drink then set it down. She jumped up on the bar and said. "Ok now that my thirst has been quenched here's the deal. I want information on this town and it's big and even its little bads. So, start talking and you might just get out alive."
"That's the dark slayer."One vamp said. "She must be losing it. Chocolate milk? The who sees yeh right hey you want cookies with that milk?"
Even though he whispered Faith heard him. She smirked and decided to show the vamp and his partner how she lost it besides no one insulted Xan but her. He was her boy toy. Two stakes went flying and there was a dust pile where they stood. "Any other wana be comedians out there?" She asked.
The bar fell quiet. Xander took a drink and then said. "We don't have all day. So talk or we will just burn this place down."
"Please I got a family." Ox said. "I have to make a living. This is at least semi honest work. I don't hurt humans. I even try to keep them out."
Xander sighed he looked at the demon and knew he would never pass in the real world. "Ok, so talk and maybe we will leave this place standing,that is if you get a better class of clients. No vamps."
"Ok, Ok I will." Ox said and he began to spill all he knew. The rest of the patrons tried to slide out. Several became dust or goo before they realized they had no options but to talk. When it was over the six remaining demons made a vow never to admit what had happened and they all decided to leave town. No game was worth dying for.
Xander and Faith left the bar. They had info and maybe even a new business for the council to invest into. Ox was an ok dude once you got to know him. Maybe they would make the bar their hang out. Well after Ox cleaned it up a bit.
