The Battle with Vampires
The new slayer has just arrived at the magic shop and the Scoobies are a little confused.
"Why is everyone looking at me funny?" the slayer asked. He was now confused too.
"Hey Giles, I thought all slayers were bloody girls," Spike asked Giles.
"There is no harm in a male slayer, he might even be stronger than a girl slayer," Giles told all of them, "Why don't we introduce our selves to him."
"Hey, I'm Jake ," the slayer replied.
Giles introduced everyone by pointing at them, "That is Willow, Tara, Xander, Anya, and finally Spike."
Jake replied, "Nice to meet all of you."
Xander whispered to him so no one could hear, "Just don't kill Spike, he's a vampire, but a big help."
Meanwhile in the sewer, a group of vampires were talking.
"Let's attack the slayer's friends, now that she's dead, there is no one to protect them," the leader shouted to the group, "We shall attack an hour after sunset."
All the vampires started cheering when a mysterious demon appeared from behind the leader of the vamps.
"So there is no slayer," replied the demon in a low scratchy voice.
The vamps stopped cheering and faced the demon and the leader turned around to face the demon.
"I am Grogorf," the demon shouted, "I served the Great Glory, and when I heard that she didn't return from this world I came here and found her body. I'm here to avenge her death."
"The one who killed the god was probably the slayer, but she is dead," the leader told the demon, "But she had friends to help her."
"Good, I will kill them, with your help," Grogorf said, "I will return a little after sunset."
With that he turn and disappeared into the shadows.
Back at the magic shop, the six were telling the new slayer about Sunnydale and its dangers.
"We have been here for a while," Willow told them all, "It's getting dark out."
"Jake, you should start getting some weapons together for your first patrol," Giles told him, "Xander, you and Spike will go with Jake and show him the vampires areas."
"No problem Giles," Xander said back to the man.
Jake, Xander, and Spike got two cross bows, several stakes, holy water, and crosses. They opened the door and walked out.
"Good luck," Willow shouted to them out the door.
Just as they were walking down the street, two vampires walked out of an alleyway. They were both males with long hair, one was tall and the other was short, and they were dressed like cowboys.
"Where do you think the three of you are going?" the shorter one said to them.
"To slay you and your friends," answered Xander.
Jake backed behind Spike and Xander and pulled three stakes, a cross, and a bottle of holy water out of his bag. He put the cross in one pocket and the bottle of holy water in the other.
"Don't make us bloody kill you," Spike shouted at the two vamps.
"I'd love to see you try," the tall vamp told Spike.
Suddenly four more vampires walked out of the alley and ten appeared behind them. The three guys were surrounded.
"What do you think the chances are of us coming out of this alive?" Xander asked Spike.
"I'd say the chances are very slim," he replied back.
Jake just stood there quietly like nothing was happening. He didn't even look the slightest bit scared or nervous.
"I wish someone was here to help us," Xander said aloud.
As if on cue Giles, Willow, Anya, and Tara came running out the magic shop with stakes in hand.
"Stay back!" Willow yelled at the vampires as she waved a cross at them.
"Good job vampires," a voice came from the alley, "I knew I could count on you to get the slayer's friends for me."
The Scoobies turn to see a large demon came out from the shadows of the alley and face the vampires. The demon was very tall, and had huge muscles. It stood on two legs like a man and carried a staff in his right hand.
Jake gave a stake to both Spike and Xander. The vampires saw this and lunged at the group. The two that came at them, Jake staked them with incredible speed and accuracy. The group could hardly believe their eyes. They could barely even see Jake's hand move.
The seven of them dusted several vampires until the demon told the remaining to back off.
"It's my turn!" the demon shouted, "I want to fast the fast man by myself,"
The demon turn to face Jake then ran at him.
What will happen to Jake during his battle with the demon and what will happen to the rest of the group. Will he win or lose. You will have to find out in the next chapter of The New Slayer.
