Oops I Did It Again!
Read & review.
Giles flicked the book of demons on his lap.
"Defeated....defeated.....yet to defeat....mythical......never existed....."
Spike walked in with a bottle of Brandy in his hand, singing "We will rock you.".
He stood behind the watcher, reading the book over his shoulder,
"You need to get a life, Ripper. An encyclopedia on demons isn't exactly bedtime reading."
"Spike, go get a grave. Maybe I'll get a bit of peace."
"Already got one. I just happen to share it with a mouldy skeleton." Spike peered at a picture of an incredibly hideous demon, "Now that's disgusting, even by my standards!"
Giles allowed his curiosity get the better of him, and read out the description beneath. When he had finished Spike laughed,
"Read the small-print mate."
Giles obeyed, then swore.
"Shit, I've done it again!"
Both shuddered as a strange wind swept through the room, formed a miniture twister in the corner, in which the demon began to appear. Spike grabbed the Ripper's arm,
"I think its best we go. Now!"
They ran past the tornado, and straight to Buffy's. The whirlwind slowly phased out, and the demon was left standing, it grinned triumphantly,
"No-one ever reads the small-print!"
Buffy frowned,
"You did what?"
"Freed a demon."
"A very nasty one." Spike provided cheerfully, and cheered up even more when Giles glowered at him.
"What was it?"
"Um...I'm not sure, but - "
"It wouldn't win the Miss Universe contest anyway." Spike was getting more serious, this thing might jeapordise his career as a demon hunter. Was that bad?
Buffy switched to Slayer/Commando mode,
"We need to find out what it is, Willow, surf the net for anything that might be helpful. Spike, you stay here with her, we'll need a positive ID. Giles you come with me, we need that book."
Xander scowled,
"What about me?!"
"I need you and Anya to do Street Patrol. Without getting killed or eaten by our friends of the undead. Okay?"
The Scooby Gang adopted their assigned positions, and got to work.
Willow loaded up the internet,
"What shall I search for?"
"Um...try very ugly demon."
"Spiiike!"
"Sorry. Okay then...try demon that comes from a whirlwind."
"Er, right." She typed it into the occult search engine, "Here goes nothing."
Cordelia called down the stairs,
"Hey! Angel! You still alive down there?!"
Angel's voice answered her, he was laughing,
"Cordelia, I've not been alive for a *long* time!"
"You know what I mean!"
The may-queen, began to make her way down the stairs, then she felt that very unpleasant feeling in her head that could only mean one thing. She was having a vision. Before Angel could twig to what was happening, Cordelia had crashed down the stairs, straight into the wall.
The vampire rushed to his friend's side,
"Cordy! Are you okay? What did you see?"
Cordy stood, shaking her head trying to clear it,
"At least you put my health before my vision.... it was Giles and Buffy and a blonde vampire with some demon. Very ugly it was too."
"The demon or the vamp?"
"The demon."
"The vampire was blonde then?"
"Mmm-hmm."
"*Peroxide* blonde?"
"Yeah, I think it was Spike."
"I don't think, I *know*."
Angel looked at the phone,
"Do you know where they were at the time?"
"Yeah, the graveyard, then somewhere dark, like space, only...not."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"I know what I mean! I can't help it if you don't."
"Nevermind,...go get Wesley, I'll meet you in the carpark. We're going to Sunnydale."
Willow slumped in her chair and looked at Spike. He sighed,
"No luck?"
"Nothing, what are we going to do?"
"Ummm...... no idea."
Buffy knocked on Giles' door. No answer. She turned to him,
"So far so good."
They opened the door and looked around at the ransacked room. Buffy approached the circle scored into the floor where the tornado had been. Giles walked over to the book he had left lying on the floor,
"The book's still here."But then he flicked through the pages,"Umm..Buffy, the pages are blank."
"I guess we'll have to rely on Will and Spike to find what we need."
Anya shone the torch around the dark streets, Xander brandished his makeshift stake,
"I think you should switch off the torch."
Anya looked puzzled,
"Why?"
"Because it's a bit like one of those neon signs saying "Eat at Willy's" except it says "Come eat us."."
The ex-vengeance demon switched off their light source,
"Oh well, at least the street lights work."
All street lights switched off. Xander scowled,
"Nice going demon chick!"
They froze as a huge black demon appeared in front of them, Anya grabbed her boyfriends arm,
"Okay, we're going! Like now! Run!"
They ran as fast as they could, stopping to hide behind a wall, Xander spoke inbetween deep breaths,
"You know that thing?"
"Yeah, it was an old friend of mine."
"So?"
"It's a soul eater."
"Oh....not good."
"It eats the souls of the innocent."
"Worse."
"The more it eats the stronger it gets."
"Okay, stop now. Things couldn't get anyworse."
Anya shook her head,
"No, they could."
"How?!"
She indicated the approaching soul eater,
"Look."
They fled, heading for Buffy's house.
Spike sat at the computer. He was trying all the demonic sites he knew, but it wasn't helping,
"Still nothing."
Willow paced the room,
"There's nothing else we can do."
"What about magic?"
"My books are at uni. And I've run out of supplies."
"Not good."
"No."
They looked at each other, Spike suddenly looked worried,
"What if it's an apocalpyptic demon? I'm not finished with this planet yet!"
"Me neither."
Both jumped as Xander's voice was heard frantically calling for help,
"Let us iiiiiiin!!!!!"
Spike strolled to the door and opened it,
"Whatever you're selling, I don't want any."
"Quit the games Fangboy, we've got trouble. Major trouble."
Angel pulled up outside Buffy's house, he ran to the door, leaving Wesley and Cordelia to let themselves out.
He thumped on the door,
"Buffy!"
He was slighlty surprised when Spike opened the door, Spike glared at him,
"Come to pay your respects Soulboy?"
Angel panicked,
"What's happened?! Where's Buffy?!"
"Don't worry Peaches, she's not dead...yet."
Willow's voice sounded from the living room,
"Angel! Come on in!"
Spike followed his sire into the living room,
"The soul eater's in Sunnyhell."
Angel looked at him in disbelief,
"That's impossible! We - "
Spike nodded his head,
"I know we did. But the Ripper, being as clever as he is, released it."
Anya entered with a glass of Cola,
"That means you have to leave."
"Why? I can help."
"Angel, is the soul eater gets to you, no more soul. Return of the psychopathic vampire."
Spike returned to the computer,
"What's wrong with that?"
They ignored him. Xander came in with the book Giles had just brought back,
"Blank. Every page is blank."
"Where's Buffy?" Angel was worried,
"On patrol with Giles. They're trying to stop him from feeding."
Anya looked puzzled,
"How exactly do they plan to do that?"
"Um, fighting it?"
"Can't. It's a spirit, not a solid creature. She won't be able to hurt it."
The Slayer and her watcher combed Sunnydale. There was no trace of the soul eater. Buffy sat down on a nearby bench,
"No show. He's probably skipped town. "
Giles didn't think so,
"Why would he do that?"
"I'd like to think he was scared of me, somehow I doubt it."
"Mmm-hmm."
Meanwhile, a girl called Tammy made her way home from the Bronze, after a night out with her boyfriend. A dark figure shadowed her, she turned feeling its presence,
"I knew you'd come sooner or later."
The shadowy figure made no reply, its surface seemed to ripple under the girl's gaze,
"Hungry, aren't you?" That was more of a statement than a question. Tammy knew the answer. The soul eater nodded and the girl laughed mockingly,
"Well you shan't have *me*!" With a wave of her hand, the soul eater was thrown away from her. Smiling, Tammy walked away, leaving the soul eater to sulk in the alley.
