Chapter 6:Dawny the Vampire Slayer's uhh Sister.
Buffy and Xander start walking to their car.
"So what are we going to do," said Xander.
"We are going to wait over there in that car until we see the signal," said Buffy.
"What signal," said Xander.
"I don't exactly know what signal. We will know it when we see it." said Buffy.
"Do you think that Dawny can handle this," said Xander.
"I think we should start calling her Dawn, Xander. After all she's been through I think Dawn should be able to handle anything. It still scares the hell out of me though," said Buffy.
"I guess I know now how mom felt a bit when I went out on patrol," said Buffy.
"Yes but you had super strength and slayer powers," said Xander.
"That isn't really a good way to calm my fears Xander you know that," said Buffy.
"Umm sorry," replied Xander.
"Just get in the car," said Buffy.
Back in Jasmine's house.
"So that was fun," said Harmony.
"Weird is more like it," said Jasmine.
"Well the excitement is over everyone should get back to the party," announced Harmony. " Jasmine, why don't you and James go on that tour. I want to stay here and talk to Dawn a little bit more"
All the other guests went back to the party as Dawn stayed in the hall with Harmony, Jasmine and James.
"OK Harmony just ahh.. stay away from the evil fruit punch," said Jasmine laughing.
"See ya later Dawn," said James.
"Yes uhh later," said Dawn not taking her eyes off of Harmony.
James took Dawn's attention at Harmony as another diss of himself. She really is playing it cold, thought James. I guess she does want me to go with Jasmine but I could have swore she was interested for a while there. I guess it was just wishful thinking, he continued to think.
"OK then lets Go Jasmine," he said putting his arm around her waist as they walked up the stairs out of sight.
James did like Jasmine, thought Dawn. He was all but throwing himself at her and she couldn't do anything. She had to protect him and Jasmine from their stupid sister and also watch Jasmine make time with the guy she liked. Life was so unfair. She wished she could just stake Harmony right now and be done with this. She wasn't her sister though. She couldn't just stake Harmony. Harmony was a vampire and she was stronger than Dawn. Dawn needed help and needed to get these kids out of here.
"So Dawn what are you thinking about," said Harmony placing her arms on dawn's shoulders "What are you going to do Slay me?"
"I wouldn't get to close," said Dawn.
"Why is that little Dawny" said Harmony leaning in closer
"You just might get burned," said Dawn as she clutched the cross and placed it on Harmony's arm. Smoke rose from the burning flesh and Harmony reeled back quickly.
"Why you little.." Harmony started to shout.
"Harmony, what's wrong are you on fire," said Holly waking in seeing the smoke residue coming from her arms.
"No I'm ahh fine. Just a little accident," said Harmony "What do you want Holly?"
"Well I wanted to talk to you about LA. Did you really go there I want to hear all about it."
"Actually Holly. I was just going to join my sister and James upstairs. maybe we can talk about it later," said Harmony.
"Oh come on. You have to tell her about that time you hung out with that Dawson's Creek star what was his name again Joshua something. " said Dawn.
"Joshua Jackson. Oh my god you hung out with Joshua Jackson that is so cool" screamed Holly
"Yes he was filming a movie there," said Dawn embellishing the lie.
"OH MY GOD WHO ELSE WAS THERE TELL ME EVERYTHING!!" shouted Holly as she pulled Harmony away into the living room before she could protest.
"Ahh I guess he was ahh cute?" said Harmony confused by the whole conversation that Dawn had roped her into.
That would take care of Harmony for awhile, thought Dawn. Now she had to get someone to help her set a trap for the intelligence challenged vampire. She had to get Hannah. How she was going to explain that Jasmine's sister was a creature of the night out to turn her sister into a vampire was another challenge but what else could she do. Well hopefully she could convince her newfound friend before she learned the hard way and saw Harmony the vampire up-close.
Hannah and Bo were still hanging out on the couch munching away on chips.
"So do you want some punch Bo," said Hannah.
"I don't know What with all that talk of tooth decay and everything I think I lost my appetite for fruit punch," said Bo.
"That's silly," said Hannah as she got up off the couch. "There's nothing wrong with the fruit punch"
"Hannah I need to talk to you," said Dawn from behind her.
"Oh hi Dawn. What about?" said Hannah.
"Umm it's about the ahh fruit punch?" said Dawn.
"See I told you?" said Bo. "I'm going to go in the kitchen and see if they have any water or something to wash down these chips."
"OK Dawn what is this deal with the fruit punch?" said Hannah.
"I need to talk to you in private," said Dawn as she lead them out into the hall.
Once in the hall, Dawn tried to think of a way to explain about Harmony without mentioning the vampire angle but couldn't think of anything so she just decided to blurt it out.
"OK Hannah. Sunnydale isn't a normal place. It is on this hellmouth thingy and vampires are real and there is danger all around and I know this may be hard to believe but.." Dawn started to say.
"Duh. Sunnydale hellmouth vampires. I know the whole story," said Hannah.
"What?" said Dawn.
"I know all about the evil of Sunnydale. That kind of comes with the territory when your cousin is a werewolf?" replied Hannah.
"You cousin?" said Dawn.
"Yes his name is Oz and he played in this rock band named.." Hannah started to say.
"Dingo's ate my baby." Dawn replied.
"You know him?" said Hannah.
"He dated my sister's friend Willow and then she turned gay." said Dawn.
"He turned your friend Willow gay?" said Hannah.
"No a witch named Tara did that," said Dawn.
"A witch turned your friend Willow gay? What you mean like a spell or something" replied Hannah.
"No there was no spell she just met this girl named Tara and.. I don't think we have time for this Hannah. Harmony is a vampire." said Dawn.
"Oh no," said Hannah "At least I understand the whole tooth decay thing you guys were talking about protecting us from now. It makes much more sense."
"OK we need a plan Hannah and I have one but I have to know how are you acting skills," said Dawn.
"Acting?" said Hannah.
"Just listen to me OK here's the plan." said Dawn laying out the plan to Hannah.
A few minutes later Harmony and Holly were still chatting away about a non-existent meeting with Joshua Jackson when Hannah ran into the room screaming.
"Oh My God!," screamed Hannah "There is some thing in the basement with fangs and stuff and it's smoking a cigarette and all dressed in leather with spiked blond hair and I think it wanted to kill me."
"It's my Blondie bear come back for me." squealed Harmony. " I knew he would be back for me"
Harmony ran to the hall and saw the basement door open.
"He's down there," said Dawn.
"Oh God Dawny is my hair OK," said Harmony.
"Fine." said Dawn.
"It me Spikey," said Harmony as she started down the basement.
Dawn quickly slammed the door on Harmony locking her in the basement.
"Oh My what the.." said Harmony realizing she was trapped in her own basement. "Dawn Summers let me out of here. " She said pounding the door. It was solid oak and reinforced so It would hold for a while. Harmony wasn't going anywhere.
"OK. " said Dawn "Step two is to get everyone out of here."
"Everybody Can I have you attention." said Dawn "Harmony has spiked the fruit punch. I think you all need to leave this place immediately. She is a dangerous drug pusher who has harmed multiple people and the police are on their way. She's already slipped something in Hannah's punch which is causing delusions"
Hannah dropped to the floor and flapped around like she was convulsing.
"Oh my god." screamed Monica "What did she do to her. We have to get out of here"
A mad rush went to the door. as people started to file out.
"I knew it I knew it was the punch," said Bo.
"Bo watch the door," said Dawn " I don't want her to get out. Hannah come with me we have to find James and Jasmine"
"Wait a minute," said Holly "Unlock that basement door now. Harmony is no drug addict. I think your puling a fast one Dawn Summers. I'm going to get Jasmine and tell her."
"Holly," said Hannah as Holly turned around "Shut Up!"
Hannah then punched out Holly.
"Oww," said Hannah " I guess the drugs are really affecting me in weird ways. I'm getting violent."
Hannah gave a wink to Dawn
"Come on lets go." said Dawn smiling at Hannah.
Buffy and Xander saw a bunch of kids running out of Jasmine's house.
"Do you think that is a sign from Dawn," said Xander pointing at the kids.
"It's a sign of trouble, that's for sure. Lets go," said Buffy as they got out of the car.
Jasmine and James were upstairs in her room.
"I'm so glad you're here James," said Jasmine moving closer.
"Maybe I should go downstairs and see how Dawn is doing. I thought I heard screaming a minute ago," said James.
"Dawn is always screaming, she's weird that way. You're here with me now. I think we can think of something better to do with our time than talk about Dawn," said Jasmine moving closer to James their lips only inches apart.
"I don't know if I.. Jasmine I know Dawn might want us to but I don't really.." James started to say. " I just want Dawn not you Jasmine."
"What?" said Jasmine. "Are you crazy"
"You heard him Jasmine. so get your ahh lips away from my guy OK," said Dawn bursting into the room.
"Your guy?" said James "You mean you really want me to be with you. I thought you were blowing me off and ahh..."
"Yes I like you James OK..but we don't have time for small talk. I'll explain everything later. We have to get downstairs before Harmony breaks out of the basement I locked her in"
"You locked my sister in the basement," said Jasmine as she ran out of the room.
"Damn it Jasmine," said Dawn as she ran after Jasmine followed by Hannah and James.
Buffy was already downstairs with Bo and Xander.
"OK Bo open the door," said buffy holding out a stake.
"Isn't s a stake a little much," said Bo "I know she has a drug problem but.."
"Harmony has a drug problem. Being a vampire and being addicted to drugs too, that really bites," said Xander.
"A vampire?" said Bo.
"We'll explain later but first door now," said Buffy.
Bo opens the door just as James and company get down the steps. Harmony comes out screaming in full vampire face.
"Harmony!" shouts Buffy holding up the cross and stake "Give me one reason not to stake you right now."
Jasmine at seeing Harmony's vampire self just faints on the floor.
"What the hell is that?" said James.
"I a vampire silly," said Harmony "You would think growing up in sunnydale people would learn by now"
"Harmony?" said Buffy asking the question again.
"Oh yes why you shouldn't stake me well ahh I promise never to bother you, your sister or her friends again and well..." said Harmony.
"I don't want you to," said a voice from behind Buffy.
"SPIKEY!" shouted Harmony as she ran into his arms.
"Spike. I thought you were over Harmony," said Dawn.
"I am shortstuff but I did sire her and all and I feel responsible a bit," said Spike still standing outside the doorway "I'll make sure she's on the next bus out of sunnydale OK slayer."
"She threatend children spike." said Buffy.
"You owe me slayer," Spike said pointing over at Dawn " I did help you When you needed it"
"Yes you did, OK she can go but if I see her again," said Buffy.
"She's dust I know," said Spike " Come on Harmony lets go"
"Oh Spike your my hero, How did you get out of the basement?" said Harmony.
"What the bloody hell are you talking about?" said Spike "Strike that I don't think I want to know. Lets go."
Spike and Harmony walk away in the distance as Buffy checks on her sister.
"Dawn you OK," said Buffy.
"Yea I'm, fine but I don't know why you had to go and jump in like that I had everything under control," said Dawn.
"I'm sure you did. Xander and I will wait in the car." said Buffy.
Buffy and Xander leave Dawn and their friends alone as they walk to the car.
"Vampires? Dawn you have alot of explaining to do?" said James
"I know but first I have to do this," said Dawn as she kissed James. "I've been wanting to do that all night."
"You slay me," said James
"No that's my sister," replied Dawn.
"Huh," said Bo.
"I guess we guys are going to have to have a long talk about things," said Buffy as Hannah Bo and James looked On.
"What happened," said Holly as she was just waking
"You ahh.. passed out and hit your jaw after Harmony spiked your fruit punch," said Hannah. "Along with Jasmine here"
Jasmine started to stir.
"Well guys I think this party is dead," said Bo.
"I agree," said Hannah.
"Yea lets get out of here. I can't wait to talk to Dawn about the ahh evil fruit punch drug pushers some more," said James as they all walked out.
"I can't believe that summers girl. She ruined my whole party," said Jasmine to holly as she got up. "What the hell happened here?"
"Dawn said that Harmony drugged us," said Holly.
"Must have been the LA thing. I should have realized something was wrong when she didn't want to see herself in the mirror. She probably was so guilty she didn't want to look at herself." replied Jasmine.
"Guys are you all right," said Lawrence running to them as Anya walked behind him.
"Oh Lawrence I'm so glad to see you " said Hannah. "Dawn is it OK if Lawrence knows about the Ahh.. GRR." said Hannah as she scrunched her face like a vampire.
"Might as well he is part of the gang," said Dawn "Lawrence your not going to believe what happened to us."
THE END.
