Chapter 11
---
An angry horde of vampires was beginning to recover from shock. Well over half of their forces had been decimated by a surprise attack of holy water that arrived in torrents. They looked up and saw the Slayer standing there armed and ready. The army also saw three formidable looking men standing in the place where a wall had been holding very sharp looking swords. They began to get confident again as the holy water began to drain out of the building into the sewers and left drying spots on the concrete floor. Unfortunately for them, they didn't see the Watcher of the Slayer and a young man with dark hair slip by to their left. Even more unfortunate for the vampires was the entrance of the young woman with the short red hair to their right flank.
The group of men and the Slayer walked forward and stood ready for an attack. A column of vampires broke into smaller groups of ten and the first wave attacked. MacLeod and Methos took the first four that came at them. Methos ducked low and took the legs out from underneath two of them as his broadsword was meant to do. Quickly staking them in the heart, they exploded into dust and Methos stood up for the next few that would come at him. Meanwhile, MacLeod was blocking swords from both vampires. When it looked like all was lost for him and they would get the upper hand MacLeod jumped and performed a split kick and knocked them down. The two vampires got up and looked at MacLeod in surprise before taking their heads in one stroke.
"Next," MacLeod taunted and motioned more forward with his index finger.
Buffy stepped in his way and said, "Screw that. I want some fun too," and went in swinging sword and stabbing with the wooden dagger. In no longer than 10 seconds she had beheaded and dusted the remaining 6 vampires.
At that moment another group of ten attacked Methos in a fury and he went down swinging as fast as he could. Dusting two off the bat he was surrounded and in a lot of trouble.
Methos swore under his breath and did his best, slashing in short strokes desperately trying to keep them at bay. Methos yelped as a vampire cut him across the back. He fell to his knees and struggled to get up as he began to be kicked in the stomach and hit in the back and head. Hearing a howl of anger all motion stood still. MacLeod, Richie and Buffy all stopped and turned as all the vampires stopped as they felt electricity charge up the air. Methos stood up and gaped as Willow floated through the air towards him. Her eyes glowed white and electricity sparked from her fingers.
"No one tries to kill my Methos. You must fight fair," Willow said in a very cold and eerily calm voice. Methos, Richie, MacLeod, and Buffy all gulped and then ducked very quickly, shielding their heads in their arms. A roaring wind and crackling thunder all around them made them cringe and get lower to the ground. Minutes later when all died down they got up very quickly to assess the damage and fight again. Willow was on the ground motionless with a sword sticking through her chest. All the vampires except about twenty had been burned into dust by the electricity. Marcus pulled his sword out of Willow and cleaned it off with her hair. Methos saw that and swore and started toward Marcus.
"No, no my dear Methos. One more step and I'll take her head," Marcus warned. "I wanted MacLeod, and I will get him." "If you really want a fight Methos, take on one of my pupils," he said.
All the Immortals in the room turned their heads and looked at the side door when they felt the other Immortals come into range.
Methos cursed.

Across the room, Giles and Xander snuck around the walls to the mattress where Dawn gently rocked back and forth murmuring to herself. Xander got on his knees and crawled over to Dawn gently.
"Dawnie.. Hey, it's Xander. We're her to get you out of here." Xander coaxed.
Giles stood watch with a sword and a stake, but nothing came their way. He looked around and saw Xander picking Dawn up like a baby to carry her out. Giles turned back to the scene in front of him and saw four people in long coats enter the warehouse. From his peripheral vision he saw a streak running toward him and he turned to meet the threat. The vampire lunged at him with a snarl and Giles sidestepped and took a downward stroke as the vampire flew by. It's head came away from its shoulders and the vampire exploded.
"Xander, hurry. I'll go find Amanda." Giles ordered.
Xnader quickly complied and Giles ran towards some doors to his left. Giles got to the first door and kicked it open. Feeling for and finding the light switch, he turned it on and quickly turned it off. The room was empty. Moving to the second door he followed the same protocol with the same results. He got to the final door and opened it gently and turned on the lights. What he saw made him sick. Amanda was on top of a pile of dead bodies, some of which were already rotting.
Giles leaned his sword against the door and rushed to the pile. Unceremoniously pulling Amanda off of the heap, he pulled her to the doorway. Amanda gasped for air and sat up sharply. Giles checked the bodies, and every one of them had been drained completely of blood.
"Damn," he said under his breath.
Shaking his head Giles turned to Amanda and helped her to her feet.
"I'm all right now, thanks Giles," said Amanda. She grabbed his sword and said, "Where is he?" and stormed out the door. Giles followed.
