BUFFY
 (hushed)
 Did you hear that, too? 

 Jehonas doesn't respond, and they both make a left. Just as 
 they take a few steps down the tunnel.

 He shoots out his arm, stopping Buffy. He listens.

 He turns his head, glancing behind them, searching.

 HIS POV: Nothing but darkness down the tunnel. Water 
 dripping as loud as lead being dropped into a bucket. Rats 
 SQUEEKING louder than their size would hint.

 His senses are amplified many times more than a human.

 BUFFY
 What is it?

 JEHONAS
 It's been a while since I walked down 
 these tunnels. Simple nostalgia. Let's 
 go.

 He turns back.

 At the end of corridor, Jehonas notices a wooden door there 
 partially opened. Twirling his blade once, he inches closer, 
 trying to peek inside. 

 Buffy wrinkles her nose. Jehonas gives her a hand signal, to 
 be ready. 
 
 He slowly pushes open the door.

 INT. CATACOMBS - ROOM - DAY
 
 Entering the room, the first thing they see horrifies them. 

 THEIR POV: BODIES. Nearly a dozen, torn and mangled, 
 bloodied, strewn all about the room. Lifeless eyes watching 
 back at Jehonas and Buffy where they stand. Jehonas starts 
 to move among the corpses. Their flesh, purple and crimson 
 red. Some exposed to the open air causing rot.

 BUFFY
 Is it me, or is this starting to look not 
 vampire?

 JEHONAS
 (nodding)
 The Priest was wrong. I have seen this 
 before.

 Jehonas crouches down next to a body of AN OBESE MAN, the 
 insides of the chest cavity exposed completely. It's like 
 something took two handfuls of his lungs and ripped them out.

 JEHONAS
 I saw a guy once in Milan... he died like 
 this. The vampire council believed it 
 was the work of Garou.
 
 BUFFY
 Grow, what?

 JEHONAS
 Werewolves. Explains that smell.

 BUFFY
 No big deal. They're bad. They're 
 evil. We can kick their butts.

 Jehonas starts working on the corpse, noting the PURPLISH 
 coloring of the wound area.

 JEHONAS
 This man died not too long ago.
 (beat)
 Have you hunted werewolves before?

 BUFFY
 Uh, sort of, but he turned out okay, in 
 some doggish way.

 JEHONAS
 Good.

 He looks around the room, grim.

 JEHONAS
 Chloe isn't here. We can hope she might 
 still be...

 An UNEARTHLY HOWL echoes through the tunnels. Buffy snaps 
 alert, spins to the door.

 Jehonas stands up straight. Another eerie HOWL echoes 
 through the maze. They both look further into the tunnel and 
 see A PAIR OF GLOWING YELLOW EYES staring back at them out of 
 the darkness. We see the dim outline of the massive wolf-
 like beast.

 JEHONAS
 Look what reared its ugly...

 With a horrible ROAR, the eyes lunge at them. Buffy lets 
 loose the Browning -- BOOM! -- just as the beast comes 
 crashing in. The force of the blast blows the beast back 
 through the door.

 Another beast tears around the corner, SNARLS. Buffy jacks 
 around the shotgun fast, fires again.

 The beast manages to spin away, avoiding the blast. The 
 shell reduces the corner into a mess of concrete and dust.

 Jehonas breaks into a sprint, past Buffy.

 He turns the corner with his sword ready to slash. The beast 
 already gone, making tracks down. The padding of bestial 
 feet growing distant.

 Jehonas gives chase. Buffy is trying to keep up while 
 reloading her shotgun.

 He emerges into an opening. A sudden noise to his right. 
 Jehonas slashes at the direction of the sound in one swing 
 with his sword. The attacker adjusts just as fast, stops and 
 backs away a fraction of a second away from the blade.

 The BEAST rears up onto its hind legs for another attack, 
 jumps at Jehonas but he moves so lightning fast we don't even 
 have time to register his blade coming upwards, slashing 
 deep.

 The beast HOWLS in pain. Jehonas spins the blade, slashes 
 again, and AGAIN in precise cuts. The beast falls backward 
 dead.

 Buffy jumps in behind him and fires her shotgun just as 
 another beast tries to tackle Jehonas from behind. BOOM! 
 She blows it off screen.

 BUFFY
 Bad doggie!

 JEHONAS
 Follow. There's another.

 They take off down the tunnel. The path is serpentine, with 
 many smaller passages and anterooms off to the sides. 
 Jehonas and Buffy move rapidly, turning left and right, the 
 walls behind them becoming a blur. 

 They come into the LARGE MAIN ANTECHAMBER, with dozens of 
 huge support pillars. Jehonas barely catching the profile of 
 the beast before it disappears around a corner.

 He gives another hand signal, and they split up, ready to 
 catch the beast on both flanks.

 TIGHT ON BUFFY, running, ready to turn another corner and --

 SLAM! Something barrels into her -- it's a TEENAGE GIRL. 
 Actually, the same girl from the first photo, CHLOE. The 
 girl's covered in grime, clothes torn. She backpedals 
 into a combat stance, breathing hard. 

 CHLOE
 (screaming)
 Qui êtes-vous?

 Buffy pulls back her shotgun.

 BUFFY
 Um... Je m'appelle Buffy. 

 Jehonas slides into view behind Chloe.

 BUFFY
 Je suis le... um, help here.

 Chloe sees her eyes, spins around to the man. She visibly 
 relaxes.

 JEHONAS
 Chloe?

 CHLOE
 Le Professeur!
 (heavy accent)
 And American Slayer?

 JEHONAS
 Où est le monstre?

 CHLOE
 It took off down the tunnel. I went the 
 other way. There are four in the pack.

 Jehonas races off.

 INT. STALAGMITE HELL - NIGHT

 Another large room with deep recesses and alcoves into the 
 walls for the dead. Stalagmites, stalactites. It's like 
 staring into an ugly maw. The beast races across the room 
 just as --

 JEHONAS

 dashes across an upper level, LEAPS, stomps the beast with 
 one foot, then landing on the ground in one motion.
