Daywalker chapter 6

Part 15/?

Xander paced Derek's jeep on his bike as they rode through the empty streets of another town. Xander pulled over just as Derek did the same.

Derek: This is it. Its getting dark soon we should probably get inside.

Xander looked around to himself.

Xander: They've already been here.

Derek nods mostly to himself as he surveys the town.

Derek: We still need to search for him. And clean up after Kora.

Xander looked at the boy in Dereks' jeep.

Xander: Lets get the kid inside. He looks out of it.

Derek nods remembering what the kid went through.

Derek: One of us needs to stay with him tonight. He's afraid of the dark.

Xander nodded picking the young boy of about 8 up and carrying him toward the closest building.

Xander: Aren't we all?

Derek only nodded his answer as they walked into the building of what looked like a hardware store.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Xander sat looking out the front window as the sun started to set over the horizon.

Xander: I still think we should get the kid out of here.

Derek nodded his agreement as he took two pills washed down with a beer.

Derek: Me to. But right now we don't have a choice.

Xander sighs as he pulls one of his pistols out of his duffel bag and begins to clean it. doing anything to take up time.

Derek: Guns don't work. Neither do crosses.

Xander smiled to himself.

Xander: Guns work with silver bullets. And I think its the people holding the crosses that don't work anymore. Crosses are just a symbol your faith is the weapon.

Derek nods..

Derek: I guess that makes sense.

Xander looks up after he puts his gun back together.

Xander: What do you know about Jack Crow?

Derek sits down opposite Xander.

Derek: He was the Vatican's master hunter. His father was turned and killed his mother when he was a boy. He killed them both. He's supposed to be a bad mother fucker. But things get exagerated. He did take down a master named Valic. He was supposedly the first vampire. Created by the church.

Xander shakes his head.

Xander: That doesn't fit. The first Vampire was created when the demons were forced back to there dimension. A demon and human mixed there blood and voila. Vampires. As for the created by the church. Thats possible. Using the Black Cross of Berseia. At least thats what Giles said when we were looking for it a few years ago.

Derek nodded his head. He didn't really care how Vampires were created he just wanted the evil ones destroyed.

Derek: Yeah. Well technicalities. I really couldn't care less. I just want to find Crow and dust Kora.

Xander nodded his agreement.

Xander: Its almost dark. I'm going on a sweep of the town.

Derek nodded and watched as Xander stood up and put his gear on. He sat one of his pistols on the table in front of Derek.

Xander: Just in case.

Derek nods as Xander walks toward the door.

Derek: If your not here in the morning were gone.

Xander nods his back still turned.

Xander: Wouldn't expect anything less.

Xander walked out the door and looked up and down the streets. Turning left. he walked toward the setting sun.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Derek Bliss sat at the table. He didn't know if he should trust the young man who left. But he really didn't have a choice. He looked at the sleeping boy. He heard gunshots in the distance but he didn't move. He sat there watching the young boy sleep. Knowing that leaving would mean the boys death. Your getting soft. He thought to himself as he held the gun in his right hand.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jack Crow was cornered. He was running out of bullets and he knew he couldn't handle 10 vamps by himself. But he didn't show them that.

Jack: Come on you mother fuckers!! You want me?! I'll rip all your heads off and shove'em up your undead asses!!

Crow got lucky and was able to take two of the vamps heads off with his last three shotgun shells. He stood with a broken table leg in his right hand.

Jack: Whose next? I'm waiting.

Just as the vamps were about to attack gunshots rang out and the remaing 8 vamps turned to dust. Jack looked past them to see a figure in all black.

Xander: I guess you are a bad mother fucker.

Jack chuckled.

Jack: You better believe it kid. Who the hell are you?

Xander chuckled as he put away his gun.

Xander: Come with me. I have a friend with a proposition for you.

Xander turned and Jack followed. Although very cautiously.

Part 16/?

Xander stepped into the store and Derek lowered his gun. Xander motions Jack inside he walks in looking around.

Xander: Derek Bliss. Jack Crow.

Jack snorts.

Jack: Enough of the pleasentries. Can we get this fuckin show on the road?

Xander chuckled as he sat beside Derek. Xander shrugged.

Derek: I'm here from the Vatican. They want us to form a team.

Jack snorted again.

Jack: Fuck that. I don't want shit to do with those bastards.

Derek smiled.

Derek: Glad I'm not alone. You in?

Jack took a seat and grabbed the fifth of whiskey from the center of the table.

Jack: What the hell? Whose the kid?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Xander leaned on his bike as he surveyed the twenty young men who wanted on the vatican team. All of them were big enough and brave enough but Xander only saw 3 that he would trust in an all out battle. Jack and Derek saw the same thing.

Jack: This is fuckin miserable.

Xander and Derek nod there heads.

Derek: Even with those three all we have is a five man team.

Xander looks up.

Xander: Six. I'll stay with you till this is over.

Derek and Jack nod.

Jack: I guess this is the best were going to get. Damnit. We don't stand a fuckin chance.

Xander smiled to himself.

Xander: I've beat the impossible before. I think there's always a chance.

Jack looked at Xander who looked about 20 at most.

Jack: What could you have been through kid.

It was said as a statement with plenty of sarcasm.

Xander: I don't know. Maybe stopping the hellmouth from opening on several occasions thereby stopping the apocalypse. Oh and fighting beside not one but two slayers.

This shut Jack Crow up. Derek shook his head.

Derek: I'd call you a lier if I couldn't have heard your heartbeat.

Xander chuckled knowing that heartbeats always speed up when lying. well almost always. Xander watched as the three young men the two vampire hunters agreed on joined the team. Xander looked at them before closing his eyes. promising himself to do everything he can to protect them.

Okay thats it. how is it. Better? Worse? Oh yeah the Faith thing. Thats coming. Promise. I think you'll like how I work that out. Or maybe not. It won't be for another few parts. I will have ADAM in this fic. Although not for awhile. I'm really not sure where or how to end this yet. Be it after ADAM or have a greater evil I don't know. I thought about having a giant battle with all of the characters involved. even all of the crossover characters. Don't know yet. Well i bid you adu until the next part thanks for the feedback.
