Chapter 4
Buffy was at the magic shop looking for the vampire in one of Giles' books, she had a feeling that he was more than just an ordinary vampire. She wasn't having much luck.
"The vampire said that he'll meet you again, when the time is right?" Giles asked.
"Yep, doesn't surprise me. I do tend to be popular with the undead crowd." She kept looking through the books when she finally saw who she was looking for. "Wait, this is him. That's a face I can't forget." Giles looked at the vampire that Buffy pointed out.
"King Logan III, ruler back in the 1600's. You sure this is him?" He asked her.
"Positive, so he was a king, knew there was something. He's also about 400- years-old. They just keep getting older." Giles rubbed his eyes.
"The older the more powerful. He knows about you Buffy, you need to be careful." Buffy nodded.
"Always." She told him even though she knew it was a lie. Giles cleared his throat.
"What do you think he wants with you?" Buffy shrugged.
"What they all want, to kill me." Giles heard the sadness in her voice. "Well, he's not gonna get his chance. I'm going to look for him and get him before he can get to me. I'll see you later." She said as she left the magic shop.
"So, he was a king and he's after you. You're very popular with the vamps." Spike told her while they were looking for the vampire. Buffy asked him to come along so she didn't have to do it alone. She gave a faint smile.
"Yeah, it's funny. Vampires either love me or wanna kill me." Spike didn't say anything. "I just wish that there was something else I could be doing right now instead of looking for some powerful vampire that pretty much wants me dead, again. I mean I could be at home watching TV, or even talking to Dawn about boys, but no, this is my life." Spike looked at her as he kept walking and he smiled.
"What is it that they say, life's a bitch..."
"...and then you die, hey, already there." She said as she smiled at him, he smiled back. They kept walking in silence when Buffy heard a noise coming from the bushes nearby. She pulled out her stake and walked towards the sound. When she got closer Riley came out from hiding and she put her stake away.
"That's the second time you nearly staked me." Riley told her.
"Well, maybe you shouldn't be sneaking around. What are you doing out here?" She asked, annoyed.
"Knew you were patrolling, thought you could use some help." Spike walked up next to Buffy.
"She has help, mate." Spike said in a not so friendly way. Riley just glared at him. Buffy looked at both of them.
"I could use both of your helps." She told Riley what she found out about the vampire from the other night.
"I knew there was something different about that vampire." Buffy nodded.
"Yeah, and we need to find him." They walked for what seemed like an hour and they weren't having any luck. Buffy let out a sigh. "Okay, I am officially bored. Where's all the vamps when you need them." Riley and Spike just stared at her. "Well, excuse me for wanting to kick some ass." She told them. Riley pointed up ahead.
"Well, you got your wish." Buffy looked to see a group of vampires heading their way.
"Now we're getting somewhere." She said as she pulled out her stake. Buffy was fighting two of the vampires while Riley and Spike were dealing with the other three. She kicked one in the gut, hard and knocked him to the ground, groaning in pain. Then she twisted the arm of the other vampire. She knew that it had been quiet recently and a group of vampires that suddenly show up out of nowhere was a little suspicious. She knew they were up to something. "Who sent you?" She asked. He growled at her.
"Wouldn't you like to know." Buffy was getting irritated and she twisted his arm harder, ignoring his painful cry.
"Tell me or this arm is coming off. Who sent you?" She twisted his arm harder.
"Do what you want to me, but I won't tell on my leader. He wants it to be a surprise." Buffy rolled her eyes.
"I'm not really one for surprises." She raised her stake. "Either you talk, or you become dust." The vampire laughed.
"I don't think that will be happening." With that the other vampire got up behind Buffy and hit her hard on the back of the head. She fell to the ground. The vampire smiled.
"The Master will be proud." He picked her up and threw her over his shoulder. "Man, she's heavier than she looks." The other vampire got up.
"That's because you're just weak." He told him.
"At least she didn't nearly break my arm, let's get out of here." The other vampire looked at where the others were fighting the two men with the Slayer.
"What about them?" The vampire holding Buffy looked at them too.
"They will take care of them." With that they both turned and walked away, with Buffy. Spike and Riley were still fighting the other three vampires and it was harder than they thought.
"They got Buffy!" Riley yelled. Spike punched one of the vampires in the face and staked him while he was distracted.
"I can see that, the Slayer can take care of herself. We have to deal with them first." Spike kicked another vampire and staked him when he was on the ground and Riley got the last one.
"We should tell Giles what happened." Riley said. Spike nodded and they both headed to the magic shop.
