The Seed Of Good & Evil Chapter 16
(Scene 1: A vampire runs into the hiploid's warehouse. The hiploid demon stops him.)
Hiploid demon: What distresses you?
Vampire: The slayer, she's knows about the weapon and she's after you.
Hiploid demon: How?
Vampire: The human was a traitor. Right now the slayer is probably devising a plan to destroy you.
(Scene 2: The gang is all in the Bronze. Willow, Buffy, and Anya are sitting down. Xander has gone to get drinks.)
Buffy: You know what's good, peanut butter. I mean sure there's the sticky factor, but no matter what you have a taste for it's always a good substitute.
Willow: This is true. (Willow smiles.)
Buffy: I think this was exactly what I needed. No demons, no drama, just fun time.
Anya: Maybe Xander and I should get married here.
Willow: That would different.
Anya: Well, it's dark, not to holy; practically anyone or anything can come in.
Willow: Anything?
Buffy: Anya, I think this has more reception potential, if that.
Anya: (Xander walks up and sits their drinks down.) I know your right, it's just its crunch time and I want something good.
Xander: So are we talking wedding deadlines or candy bars? Please say candy bars.
Buffy: Sorry, all boring wedding stuff. (Buffy's cell phone starts to ring. She answers it.) Giles? Giles, I can't hear you, wait OK. (Buffy holds her hand over the receiver.) It's Giles, it sounds important. I'll be outside. (Buffy leaves.)
Xander: So how's she doing?
Anya: She seemed fine.
Willow: Yeah, but things aren't always as they seem, and I think this is one of those times.
(Scene 3: Buffy is walking outside. She hears a man screaming.)
Buffy: Giles hold on. (She starts walking around the corner. She sees a vampire biting a man.)
Man: AHHH, AHHHH! (Buffy runs up and pushes the vampire against the wall. The man runs away.)
Buffy: I'm not the sun, but. . . (She stops and looks at the vampire. She has a shocked look on her face.)
(Scene 4: The next day everyone's at the Magic shop. Buffy's telling them about the vampire.)
Willow: Spike, it was Spike?
Buffy: Yep, he was feeding, pain free.
Xander: So no more Chip n' Spike, it was fun while it lasted.
Buffy: He's been lying to me all this time.
Xander: Let's face it Buff, hello I can now violently massacre all of your friends is not exactly an icebreaker worthy of use.
Willow: How did this happen? I mean Spike's chip was pretty hard to remove. It would take a genius to figure something like that out.
Anya: Or a chiptologist. That's not a word is it?
Giles: If Spike is armed and dangerous again there is no telling what he could do.
Buffy: I know, but I just don't understand. One moment, chips ahoy and the next he's feeding on innocents.
Anya: The hiploid demon.
Willow: What?
Xander: I second that.
Anya: The hiploid demon was smart enough to implant a chip, why not to take one out.
Giles: Anya makes an excellent point, but if it's accurate, if he's been accepting aid from the hiploid demon he must be giving something in return.
Buffy: Jade.
Willow: No Buffy.
Buffy: Yes. If Derek was the hiploid demon, Spike had to of known, but he didn't stop him. He allowed him to kidnap us. She was his collateral, a little down payment on his chip.
Willow: Maybe the chip just sort of broke out. (Everyone looks at Willow.) Or not. I'm just trying to be optimistic.
Buffy: It's appreciated really, but.
Willow: Being naive doesn't help I guess.
Giles: Spike will be handled, but for now as I was telling Buffy last night, a woman's body was found near an abandoned warehouse downtown. Her autopsy report was similar to that of Derek's. I believe the hiploid demon is leaving a body trail of sorts.
Buffy: I'll check it out. You guys should go home and keep the crosses and stakes in hand just in case Spike comes back.
Willow: Buffy, what should we do if he does? (Buffy puts her hand on her stomach and then looks back up at Willow.)
Buffy: Slay him. (Everyone gets quiet.)
(Scene 5: Spike walks into the warehouse. He looks around.)
Spike: HELLO, anybody home? Good, I'm not much of a people person. Not much of a person at all. (Spike looks around. He suddenly hears voices behind him.)
Vampire 1: Are you supposed to be here?
Spike: Yeah, sure of course I (Spike turns around, there are a pack of vamps behind him.) am.
Vampire 1: You're the one seeking to destroy the weapon. I'd know that overly peroxide hair anywhere.
Spike: No, that wasn't, oh bloody hell, me and my trademarks. Listen, we can do this the easy way or the hard way.
Vampire 1: Unfortunately for you there's only the hard way. (The vampires run after Spike. Spike slays two with his stake. He punches one of them in the face. Two of them grab his arms and throw his stake to the third vampire.) Well, well. I'm going to slay you with your own stake. The irony of this moment is indescribable. (The vampire lifts up the stake when suddenly he turns into dust and Buffy is standing behind him.)
Buffy: Couldn't agree more. (Spike head buds one of the vampires behind him and gets one of his arms free so he can punch the other vampire. Buffy slays the one Spike head budded and the one that he punched has ran away. Buffy walks over to Spike.)
Spike: You saved me. (Buffy punches Spike.) Ow, my jaw!
Buffy: You lied to me. You sacrificed our daughter and for what, so you could feed?
Spike: What are you talking about?
Buffy: Did the hiploid demon deactivate your chip?
Spike: Yes, but it's not what you think.
Buffy: Stay away from me and the people I care about.
Spike: I would never hurt you or the scoobies all right.
Buffy: No, not all right, you're still killing innocent people Spike. Just because they're not my friends doesn't make them suitable to be your snacks.
Spike: Innocent, that man you saw at the Bronze was no innocent. He was working with the hiploid demon.
Buffy: What would the hiploid demon need with a human?
Spike: How in bloody hell am I supposed to know? Buffy, he told me this was the hiploid's lair, and apparently someone must have warned him I was looking for him and hippy fled.
Buffy: Good job Spike. You ruined the one lead we had to the hiploid demon. (Buffy starts walking away.)
Spike: I didn't mean to. I just wanted a little revenge; you can't blame me for that. (Buffy stops, she picks up something from the ground.) Buffy, I would never hurt.. .
Buffy: Jade. (Buffy turns to Spike.)
Spike: Well yes, and. .
Buffy: She was here. (Buffy looks at a pacifier she found on the ground. Spike has a confused look on his face.)
Spike: Um, what?
