Disclaimer: Not again... Look, I DON'T own BTVS, I'm just a sad, strange girl who had a series of recurring dreams.
Story: Set after "The Gift". The Bufster's dead, and a new Slayer's in town! (btw, this is in script form)
Author's note: yeah, see, I dreamt that I was the new Slayer after watching "The Gift" (ie: end of series 5). These dreams continued, so I've started a fanfic on them.
PLZ R & R!!!
It's a dark night in the graveyard. A perfect night for a blood-sucking vamp to go for a walk. And maybe catch a bite or two.
This particular Vampire, however, is sitting in front of a grave. Just sitting there. Waiting.
Although he knows... this one will never rise...
Spike: I'm sorry, pet. I wasn't good enough. I wasn't strong enough. I couldn't save you... But, I'll protect Dawn for you, all right? I'll watch over her, and make sure she doesn't get into any trouble. [Grins] Hey, I'll make sure she gets to school too, all right?
As Spike stands, he places a cold hand on the tombstone. A moment later, he turns to leave.
[Rustle]
Spike: [pauses] Who's there? Come out, I know someone's there!
[Whoever is there obviously would prefer to hide.]
Spike: Bloody Hell... [storms off]
There is silence for a few minutes, then, out of the tree above the grave jumps a girl, about 16, with long blonde hair, wearing black clothes. There is an intelligence in her eyes that does not come from being human.
Girl: [to grave] Hello there Buffy. [Kneels down and strokes the words on the stone. Smiles.] Don't worry. I'll take good care of all your friends...
[girl strides off]
The next day, in a pleasant-looking house...
Two young women lie together, asleep, until woken by a scream from downstairs.
Dawn: WILLOW! [distressed]
Willow: [drowsily]Wha...
Dawn: [calling from the kitchen] I THINK I'VE... owwww....
Willow: oh... OH! Tara, wake up. Dawn's hurt herself! [shakes Tara]
Tara: hmmmm...
[Willow gets up and runs down stairs. As soon as Wil is out of the room, Tara quickly sits up, smiling]
Willow: What hap- huh?
[in the kitchen stand Dawn, Xander and Anya. Sitting in his shady place on the bench is Spike. On the table is a cake and lots of presents]
Xander: Happy Birthday, Wil!
Willow: aww... you guys... wow!
Spike: yeah, we know... get on and open the presents, these curtains aren't all that thick.
Willow: yessir, Captain Grumpy, Sir!
[outside the house, sitting on a high tree branch, the girl from last night looks in the window.]
Dawn: [watching Willow open all her pressies, senses something behind her] hm? [turns to look out. The girl is no longer in the tree, or anywhere in sight...]
[at school that day]
Dawn: sigh... [stares into mirror] Here goes...
Dawn had spent the last week trying to come to terms with Buffy's death. Part of her felt like her sister was still there, still watching over her. She hoped that was true. But she couldn't face her schoolmates. Their pity, their questions, their scorn...
[a young girl with long blonde hair enters the bathroom. We recognise her as the girl from earlier.]
Girl: uh... hi there. Um, are you Dawn Summers? [shyly]
Dawn: yeah, hi. Do I know you?
Girl: um... I don't think so. I'm new. I just came from L.A.
Dawn: L.A.? That's where Angel is. Hi! Have you been at Sunnydale long?
Girl: Nah, I only arrived last night.
Dawn: oh, that's nice. Listen, I gotta go. It's my first day back, you see, I've been away for a while...
Girl: yeah, I heard about your sister. I'm really sorry.
Dawn: how'd she find out so quick? Yeah, thanks. [girl turns to leave] Hey, what's your name?
Girl: Tallulah. Tallulah Grey.
Dawn: Taloola? Weird name. [sees that Tallulah looks very uncomfortable] Hey, I'll see ya round, k?
Tallulah: yeah, sure. [quickly hurries out].
Ooh! What's gonna happen next? Review my work so far, and then I'll do some more!!!
Luv ya, TULZ.
