Demonic Discomfort

Buffy shook her head as she backed out the kitchen.. For some reason Bunny's cat had suddenly decided to jump into a sink full of dirty water...

"I'm going you guys see ya" Buffy called through to the Kitchen where Dawn and Willow were trying their best to dry Luna off...

Buffy headed out into the Gentle evening air and began to walk in the direction of the Graveyard.

Meanwhile a blonde electrician was heading for the Magic Box /this place is beginning to give me the creeps! / she thought flipping a strand of hair out of her face.

/Oh why do I always have to go creeping around all hours of the night? It's starting to get cold here! / she shivered slightly she passed a black van.

She Stopped dead and spun her head in the towards it, she could here low murmurs coming from within. Three masculine voices were slowly chanting a series of words in English.

"...Oh Great Magnificent ones! We summon Thee from the Chaotic Void! Aid us in our Crusade of Conquer! We release your Blackened Souls from the depth of thy Dark Existence!..."

/Oh man! This is awful../ Bunny thought /I wish Mina was here! ..she could, HEY! My communication watch! Why didn't I think of that before?/ rolling her sleeve up to reveal the pink star-faced watch Bunny clicked the button putting her in contact to Mina Aino.

Buffy had managed to stake quite a few Vamps and was about to head back when voice rang out from the Shadow's

"Bloody Hell the stuff I've heard!" Spike grumbled "I have some Info for you Slayer"

"Whatever you think you're up to Spike it won't work." Buffy replied without looking the Vampire in the eye.

"Who say's I'm here for a Snog any way Slayer? Friggin' hell it's cold enough tonight with you giving me that attitude" he added falling into step with Buffy. "I just found out summing I thought you know"

"Well tell me and get lost I've got to get home, Dawn has a friend over" Buffy snapped

"So Nibblet's having a sleepover is she? Lot's of fun to be had at a sleepover" Spike smirked.

"Don't you dare think of coming over tonight, you'll scare the poor girl!" Buffy replied sharply "what's this information then?"

"Well" Spike began lighting a cigarette and popping it into his mouth "From what I hear.." he took a drag "there has been as shift felt by some of the Energy sensing Demons"

"That's it? Big whoop Spike! Something's got a bunch of demonic Geiger counters spooked! It isn't exactly the biggest deal since sliced bread is it?" Buffy queried in aggravation..

"Come on Slayer, use your head!" he growled impatiently "If there's been an energy shift that means that whatever is beyond the Hellmouth isn't the bad boy of Sunnydale anymore!"

/He's got a point/ she thought to herself turning her face towards his /but surely nothing is strong enough to do that!/ "come off it Spike there isn't being alive, dead or undead that could overthrow the Hell dimension"

Removing the cigarette from between his lips Spike began to shake his head "No, Slayer there isn't ONE being that could do that not ONE at all"
