Scooby 2 Gang
Chapter Eight
Sara ducked as the vamp swung at her. "Is that the best you got? You've only hit me once this whole time." She was wearing all black, black baggy pants, black tee, black hooker boots, and her hair was pulled back into a bun with a black ponytail. She even had black fingernail polish on her fingers and toes, black eye liner, and large black hoop earrings.
He swung again sending her to the ground. He lunged for her; right when he was close to her he felt a pain in his heart. He looked down to see a stake there, "Shiite bitch!" he muttered and turned to dust.
"That vamp had a potty mouth didn't he?" Liz asked. Sara turned to where Liz was leaning against a large gravestone. Liz was in all blue, blue (carpenter) jeans, sky blue tank top, blue/white/black/red tennis shoes, and her rosy red hair was pulled back with a blue ponytail and twisted into a bun with blue shop sticks. She even had bright blue nail polish on her fingers and toes, light blue eye liner, and a blue earring in all eight holes in her ears.
"Yep!" Sara walked over to her and leaned against the gravestone next to Liz. It had been two weeks since the run in with Angelus, Spike, Mekare, and Cordelia. Sara and some of the gang, mostly Liz and Ryan had all gone patroling almost every night. Liz hadn't touched one magic book in a week, which had surprised Sara and Tara because they had thought she had really been into the magics. Xander had turned into a read machine. He just read for the past two weeks. This bothered everyone especially Tara.
She knew he didn't like to research that much at all and now all of a sudden he had to read everything he had on Angelus, Spike, Mekare, and Darla. When he wasn't reading Xander was patroling and sleeping and eating, but he did that while he read too. Tara also noticed that he never said anything about his patrols but always asked Sara a lot of questions about her patrols and whoever went with her. Sara had asked Liz how she felt about Brian and Zach and she had said they were like brothers to her.
Sara only asked because she'd noticed Brian staring at Liz a lot. Samo hadn't had any more dreams like she had had. Samo had told Sara not to tell anyone about the dream so Sara didn't expect for Ryan. It slipped when they were patroling and talking about dreams. Sara told Samo that she told and Samo said it was all right because she was planning on telling Ryan because he was her brother anyways. Zach was as normal as could be and blew off some of his jock friends a few times to hang out with Ryan.
This surprised Ryan because they'd never been friends they just happen to each no Brian. Sara and Samo had hung out a lot and got to know each other a lot. Liz was happy about this because she knew Sara needed a Sunnydale best friend and not just a best cousin and boyfriend. Liz had always had Zach and then Brian when she turned 10 and he'd moved to Sunnydale.
"Do you think I should ask Tara what's wrong?" Liz asked as they started to walk around.
Sara stopped suddenly and looked at Liz who was still walking with a worried look on her face. "Liz!" Sara yelled. Liz stopped and turned to face her, still looking worried. "Are you sick?"
Liz looked confused a little but still worried. "No...why would you say or think that?"
"You're asking me if you should ask someone something."
Liz rolled her eyes and they started walking again. "I was just wondering jeez...I was trying not to be so rude as some people think I am."
"Sorry it's just not very you like to ask if you want to share your opinion."
"You think I don't no that...it's just I'm really worried about Tara...she seems so distracted."
"Well, I think if any of us ask her about...her current self it should be you cause you know you no her."
Liz nodded. "I get that. I mean...you know Xander like I know Tara and...like...yeahs so anyways...can we like talk about something else."
Sara smiled. "Only if you promise to ask Tara about what's up with her but in your own words the next time you see her and never use like that many times in a sentence ever again."
"Promise." Liz held out her pinkie. Her and Sara pinkie promised and giggled a little. "So what are we gonna talk about?"
"I don't know...what do you think we should talk about?"
"The three vamps coming towards us."
The vamps were about ten feet away now. Sara pulled out a stake. They stopped about 3 feet in front of Sara and Liz. "Well, looks what is going bump in the night...a tramp and two bitches." Liz smirked.
Sara smiled. "What do you three want...cause unless it's being dust then I really can't help you right now."
"Just came to see how alive and kicking you two are." Cordelia smiled.
"Why?" Liz raised her eyebrows.
"Well, you see," She started circling Sara and Liz. "Spike and Mekare have taking a liking to you slayer and Angelus and Mekare to you Red." She looked Liz up in down when she was standing in front of her. "You remind me of a bad ass Willow."
"And Willow is?" Liz glared at Cordelia.
"Xander's dead best friend and the girl he cheated on me with and Tara's dead girl friend." Cordelia smiled. "God I'm soooo glad she's dead...I always hated her."
"That's a real nice trip down memory lane and all but-" Liz started.
"But when are we going to fight." Sara finished.
Cordelia stood in front of her now, she gracefully raised her hand and snapped it. "Now's good." She lunged at Liz, who screamed when Cordy pinned her on the ground. Cordy stood up with vampire speed. Cordy elbowed Liz in the face when she was getting up. She looked down at Liz's un-conscious body. "Nobody touch the red head or you're worse then dust."
Sara heard Cordy yell while she dust her fifth vamp that night. She had been keeping any vamps from doing anything to her but couldn't get to Liz.
"They just keep coming." She muttered dusting another vamp. She saw that there was about five left...not including Cordelia. Two pinned her to the ground she kicked one in the face and one in the gut at the same time. She jumped up dusted the two vamps and turned to where the others were. But there wasn't anyone there. "Liz!" She yelled. "Liz...Liz where are you...Cordelia if you or anyone other un-dead fuck touch or hurt her I'll rip you piece from piece."
Cordelia smirked hearing the slayers threat as she and three other vamps, one caring Liz walked out of the cemetery they were in.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Liz opened her eyes and saw Angelus sitting in a chair drawing something on a large sketchpad. She sat up and found her self in a large bed that had red sheets and red pillows. "Do you like the color?" She looked at Angelus who was staring at her. He smiled at her un-conformable look. She then looked around the room and noticed that it was painted blood red.
"Blood and silk don't really work for me," she ran as fast as she could to the door only to find Angelus standing they're with an evil smile. She opened her mouth to say something or maybe scream but he quickly covered it with his hand so she couldn't speak.
"Shhh," he whispered, "you might wake someone."
She bite his hand that was covering her mouth and started backing up. "No me toque usted fucker, mudo estúpido de la madre de la maldición del dios de la mierda." (AN: in english that means Don't touch me you stupid dumb shit god damn mother fucker.)
Angelus looked confused then realized by the angry look on her face she was saying something bad about him. "What did you just say?" He took a step near her for every one she took back.
"No me toque usted fucker, mudo estúpido de la madre de la maldición del dios de la mierda." She backed right into a wall.
"Do you think you're insulting me?" Angelus was only a few feet away from her.
"Oh trust me you'd soo be insulted if you knew what I was saying English."
"And why don't you tell me?"
"Well that wouldn't be any fun no would it," she could tell she had fear in her voice but she just couldn't not say anything, it just wasn't her, and if he was play a game she was gonna play right back.
"You think you're big and bad," he started, now standing right in front of her, she gave him a 'yeah what about it' look that made him laugh. "Little girl you haven't even seen the good side of the dark."
At the evil look on his face Liz screamed at the top of her lungs.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Sara walked quickly down the street looking for something to beat on, and get some info. on where Liz was. She broke into a fast run when she saw Ryan and Brian walking far up ahead of her. As she ran she looked at the alleys she was passing, she saw a blonde smoking leaning against the wall in one of them; Spike passed through her mind. She finally catches up with Ryan and Brian, who've stopped because of the loudness her running was causing.
Ryan was the first to notice the worried look on her face. "What's wrong?"
Sara gasped for breath, "Liz!"
This got Brian's attention quick, "What's wrong with her? Is she all right? Where is she?"
"Calm down man...we'll find her, let Sara speak first."
"Cordelia took her, an I've got two guesses on to who she took her too." Sara said quietly. Ryan and Brian just looked at her as she quietly told them about her plan to get to Liz. They nodded and started to walk away causally.
Sara took a deep breath and walked as if nothing had happened into the alley where she had saw Spike. Just as she'd planned he was standing right there. Sara rolled her eyes and turned around only to walk straight into someone hard, making her fall on her ass. She looked up into Spike's face.
"Looking for me, luv." He smirked.
"Not likely," She stood up, "more like trying to get away from you."
He laughed and in two seconds had her pinned against the wall. "Missing someone?"
Sara eyes widened, "He's got her doesn't he?"
"Maybe. What you gonna do about it?"
She pushed him away from her. "Go to the place he had her last." She tried to walk away only to be thrown on the ground.
"I'm sure you won't find her there," Spike held her down. "But I'll show you where she is."
"What's the price?" Sara struggled to get up but couldn't.
"How do you know there's a price?"
"There's always a price with you."
He chuckled. "Okay slayer you got me...all you gotta do when we get there is stay there."
It's a trap, her mind screamed at her, but she didn't listen. "You promise to let her go?"
"Of course," he smirked.
Sara rolled her eyes. "Fine, get off me and lead the way." She struggled again.
"Now why would I wanna get off you", he kissed he neck.
Sara pushed him so hard he flew off of her. She quickly stood up, and glared at Spike, "I repeat lead the fucking way."
"You didn't say fucking the first time," he started to walk out of the alley with Sara following him.
Sara was now walking in line with him. "I don't give a shit ok...and this would be so much better if we didn't talk."
Spike didn't say anything for a few minutes as they walked through the streets of Sunnydale. Then he put his arm around Sara.
Sara felt him put his arm around her, and pulled out a stake and jumped in front of him, the stake aimed at his heart. His arm wasn't around anymore. "Don't you ever fucking do that again."
"Ohh, you sure to say fuck a lot when you're angry. Do it again slayer, it's turning me on."
Sara jumped away from him. "That's disgusting." Sara took a deep breath. "Where are we going now?"
Spike smiled. "Well there's a back way to get into the factory and a small room right by the entrance, we could always go in there to have a little fun."
Sara's mouth was hanging wide open. "Gross, get your fucking mind out of the gutter. Now tell me where Liz is."
"Ohh, you said fuck again." Spike turned into an alley and Sara followed. "I think I like being the one who's being followed by you."
"Shut up." Sara hissed.
"You gonna make me, luv." He smiled at her.
"Shut up."
He chuckled and turned right.
Sara followed him; she looked down and bumped into him. "What the fuck?" She moved so Spike wasn't blocking the way. She looked at the very tall warehouse in front of her. She was about to step forward when the hairs on the back of her neck stuck up, she felt chills go through her whole body. She turned around and saw Ryan and Brian fighting a good-sized group of vampires. When she tried to move she found she couldn't, she looked down and there was needle in her arm. When had that gotten there, she thought.
Then everything went black.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Sara came to and found she was chained to a wall. With metal of course. What the fuck was going on? She looked around as her vision cleared. She saw Ryan locked in a cage and Brian in another. What the hell, she thought as she got out of the chains holding her. She saw Liz chained to the wall across the room in a similar manner. She was passed out and very pale, she had little cuts on her face and her arms. Please let her be asleep and not dead, Sara silently bagged.
"Don't worry luv she'll live." Someone said as if they could read her mind. She turned her head to see Spike standing there.
Sara tired to break free again but still couldn't. "Spike, what the hell is going on?"
"Don't struggle, you'll break something if you do." He pushed her against the wall.
"Spike?" Sara felt her bones ache, like they'd been broken then fixed and were now being broke again. "Why does everything hurt like this?"
"Don't ask me."
"WHY?"
"Well the reason you're chained up is cause you know one wanted you to-" Spike started as he moved away from the slayer.
"Not me?" Sara's eyes were on Liz.
"Did you know vampires can be brought back to life, you know wit someone's blood here and another's here."
Sara looked like she was going to explode. "Who?"
"The not so great Master and my princess, and Darla, the bitchy slut."
"Who the hell are they?"
"You'll see." He started to walk away.
"Why Liz's blood? Why not mine?"
Spike turned back to her. "Took hers cause she's a virgin witch my dear, and we did take some of yours just not as much as we did from her."
"But why the hell are you people doing this anyways?"
"Well as you know Mekare wants an army, and he needs leaders luv, and these folks are purely evil."
"And he wants a purely evil army."
"Bingo."
Sara saw movement out of the corner of her eye and glanced at Liz. The red head had her eyes open but she looked like she didn't even see what was in front of her. "Liz!" Sara yelled. She didn't even notice Angelus and Mekare enter the room.
"Well it's good to see someone of you are awake." Mekare smiled.
"Why are we hear?" Liz whispered, so barley anyone could hear. But everyone seemed to hear her.
Sara looked at her cousin with wide eyes. What had they done to her in the last few hours? Her own voice didn't sound like hers and she was so pale and she didn't look like she was really here. Sara struggled at her chains again.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Zach walked up to Sam and Ryan's house. He had a bad feeling, and not the kind that you get right before a test. He knocked on the door, Sam answered it. She looked a little taken back to see him.
"What are you doing here?" Sam asked quietly.
"Well to have a little fun in the bedroom of course."
Sam's checks went redder then Liz's hair. Which made her look even more innocent then her pj's did. She was wearing red baggy boxers that had pink kisses all over them, and a pink tank top. "That'd be very interesting but I'd like to know what you're really doing here?"
"How do you know that's not what I'm really here for?"
"Because I had one of those dreams again."
"Dreams?"
"One that seemed so real that I knew it was. Ryan, Brian, Sara and Liz are in a warehouse behind an alley. They're in major trouble."
"Do you think you could be more specific?"
"I know the way but I can't explain the way."
"Ahh, okay. You go get dressed in something much more then that," this made Sam frown and look her outfit over. "I'll get Xander, Tara and Oz, hopefully we can get all of them out of here."
"This is what I sleep in you know?" Sam raised her eyebrows.
Zach frowned. "That's a shame, I was hoping you slept naked that way I could just slip in and get some action."
Sam's mouth dropped open as Zach let himself in.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Sara kept struggling at her chains even though it was only causing pain and she was no ware near escape. A few people, from what she could tell on the people part, were gathering a few vials and chanting that made no sense to Sara and just confused her even more. She looked over to Ryan and Brian, they were still passed out. When her eyes landed on Liz she found a pair of bright blue eyes staring at her, with no pupils or funny white stuff around them. Sara couldn't help the chill that she got.
Liz could feel the magic flowing though her, she just didn't know what to do with it. She looked at Sara to see if she knew what to do. By the look in her eyes she had no clue what to do. She sighed and saw Angelus staring at her, she glared at him, she'd say something mean and hateful but her throat hurt. The freaks in the black robes were up to know good she could tell but no one would say that were up to. She didn't feel like talking but couldn't help but break the silence that was killing her.
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?"
This got everyone's attention, expect for the robed freaks and knocked out Ryan and Brian. She didn't care if people in China heard her, she didn't remember anything from the last few hours, all she remembered is her conversation with Angelus and she didn't like that memory much. Plus all the cuts on her body hurt like hell.
"Well Elizabeth you see I need an army, I think I may have told you this already but you'll just have to hear it again." Mekare said calmly.
Liz rolled her eyes. "Truly evil, do you ever get sick of hearing yourself talk?"
Mekare chuckled. "So very firey."
"It's wonderful, plus she's real looker." Angelus stared at her, especially her eyes.
"As I was saying," Mekare started again which made Liz and Sara rolled their eyes. "I'm building an army and to get a good army I need good leaders, like the slayer, her close family and some of there friends, plus some very evil dead vampires that I know how to bring back. And if I know how to I might as well do it, don't you think?"
"I think you should go to hell." Sara pulled at her chains yet again.
"Well in your state I'm sure you would."
"And what state would that be again asshole?"
"Spike please shut her up." Angelus rolled his eyes.
Spike smirked and started walking towards Sara, "Gladly."
"Don't you dare come near me." Sara growled.
"You know luv you're absolutely adorable when you're angry and pissed."
Liz smirked. "Don't get to excited Spikey it's probably PMS, you know that time of the month."
Spike turned around and glared at the redhead, who glared right back.
"Children please behave, you have to get along all eternity when this is all done." Mekare looked at the small portal forming in the middle of the robed people's circle.
"They ain't your children." The group, with now an awake Brian looked up to see Xander on a top floor with Zach next to him.
At that moment two arrows shot though the air, one hit Spike close to the heart which knocked him to the ground and the other hit Mekare in the right shoulder.
"Keep the spell going." Mekare yelled as Samo and Tara ran into the large room and helped Sara and Liz with their chains, which they oddly had the keys for. They then helped Brian and Ryan, who were now awake, out while Zach, Xander, and Oz were trying to hold off Angelus, Spike and Mekare. Once Sara was un-chained she went to help, as did Brian, Ryan and Liz who didn't get to far. Suddenly the room filled with light and an invisible force went flying though the room.
When everyone could see again most of them were on the floor. Well Sara and Tara were on there knees while Liz was standing but shaking but the rest were against the wall or on the floor. The freaks in black were gone but now there was three other people standing there. The 'Master', Drusilla and Darla, three of the most feared vampires ever. The white hats wasted no time getting out there as fast as they could, the vampires seemed very distracted anyways.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
The Scooby gang stepped into the magic box. Well maybe stepped wasn't the right word for it. Sara and Ryan came in first; they were practically leaning on each other to stand up strait. Then came Liz who had an arm on Brian and Zach, and neither of them could walk a straight line at the time. After that Samo, Tara and Oz actually walked in while Xander trailed behind them with a defeat look on his face. Tara noticed Sam staring at Zach's butt but made it look like she was staring at the ground.
They all sat themselves on tables and chairs across the shop. Sara, Ryan, Sam, and Brain ended up at one table. Liz and Zach were on the steps lying down, eyes barley open. Tara and Xander at a table next to the one with the 'students' at and Oz sitting on the counter by the cash register. They were all pretty tired.
"So what now?" Liz asked eyes shut.
Half the room looked at her and the other half stayed still. "We wait until we know we can beat them." Xander said.
"That's it?" Sara asked, getting glances.
"What do you mean that's it?" Her watcher asked.
"I mean we just wait. What if they attack us before were all 'ready'?" Sara got a sorta worried look on her face.
"Or they attack us all one at a time? What if they pick us all off one by one?" Liz asked.
"They won't," Xander said strictly and a little meanly, "I've dealt with evil for a good many years and I know they'll come in a big group and try to take us all."
"I disagree...."
The group turned towards the door to the Magic Shop, where the cold voice came from. There stood Spike, Dru, Angelus, Cordelia, and Darla; looking very evil and healthy for dead people. There were also about ten minions behind them.
"I think we'd attack when were strong and you're weak." Angelus smiled. "Don't kill anyone just knock them all out, we need them alive,
Liz ran into the backroom as Sara pulled out a stake and the others ran for weapons. Liz grabbed the orb she'd bought, some erbs from the box labeled Soul, a match, and a piece of paper with a long spell that'd restore a vampires soul, the problem was she didn't know which vampire would get the soul and the orb only worked once for a vampire. She quickly put them in place in order for the spell to work.
While the Wicca was doing that her cousin was vamping everything that came at her. The others though weren't having the same luck as the slayer. Samo was knocked out and lying against the wall and Oz had just run out of arrows for the crossbow he'd been firing with. Xander had staked one vamp but the one he was fighting now was winning. Tara was fighting as best as she could but wasn't getting anywhere. Zach, Ryan, and Brian were working as a team and combined were doing as well as the slayer.
Liz took a deep breath and quickly read the spell before her only to be interrupted her a vamp tackling her into the wall. She screamed but no one seemed to hear her, she grabbed the nearest bottle and broke it over top the vamps head. It, the vampire, screamed as holy water melted it's head, then turned to dust. Liz took a glance out at the fighting and noticed her cousin fighting two vamps at once and Spike coming towards her with a weird look on his face.
Sara dusted the vamp but was punched by another one; she kicked him hard in the crotch. She was fighting only on instinct and couldn't think of what to do next. Sara was so into the fighting she was doing she didn't notice Spike walking toward her until she dusted one of the vamps she was fighting.
Sam heard the fighting but couldn't move even though she wanted to. Zach was standing in front of Sam with his favorite sword fighting anything that came toward the knocked out girl. He dusted the vamp he'd been fighting and found the blonde female vampire that a spell had brought here early that night. Darla, the name popped into his head and out of the corner of his eyes he saw Liz, who was in the backroom, eyes a bright blue.
Tara and Oz were fighting Dru as best they could but even though it was two against one, the one seemed to be winning.
Xander, Ryan, and Brian were fighting Angelus and a few other vamps and quickly loosing.
Liz started reading the spell again and was mentally dead set to finish it. She started chanting faster and faster, she was so into the spell she didn't notice her eyes change from bright blue to black.
Sara kicked Spike off of her and stood up grabbing a stake on the ground.
"Having fun slayer?" Spike smirked starting to circle Sara.
"Blast, you?"
"Dancing is always fun as long as your partner participates."
"Huh?" Sara was distracted for a moment and that was all Spike needed. He punched her sending her flying into the wall.
Ryan saw Sara going flying into the wall the grin on Spike's face. He ran and tackled the vampire to the ground only to be thrown next to his girlfriend in a few seconds.
Sara stood up and went to help Ryan when someone pulled her hair and bite into her neck.
Ryan slowly stood as he watched Spike bite into Sara.
Spike pulled back from drinking. "Like that, boy?" He smirked looking at Ryan. "I've got your girlfriend right here," he pulled hard at Sara's hair, "and you can barley move. Can't save her now, can you?" He bite back into the slayer.
Ryan tried to walk but only fell to the hard floor, he knew one of his legs was broken now.
Liz finished chanting and felt the charge and power the spell had gave to her, and was a little disappointed when it was gone.
Sara felt her attacked pull back for the second time but this time they let go of her. She grabbed her neck and turned around and saw Spike curling up into a ball on the floor. She saw her blood on his lips; his eyes were glowing yellowish white. Then suddenly his eyes stopped glowing; she was so distracted she didn't even notice the vamp that tackled her.
Ryan smiled when Sara staked the vamp that had attacked her. He tried to stand again but was grabbed around the neck; he didn't have the strength to scream when someone bite him.
Dru dropped the boy she'd bite; he was still alive she could tell. She smiled evilly at the horrified look on the horrible little slayer's face. "You take something of mine I take something of yours." She said then grabbed the boy on the ground and ran.
Sara ran after Dru but she lost her quickly and then ran back to the Magic Shop to see if everyone was okay. Everyone was there, scratches and bruises but nothing serious. She looked at Spike knocked out on the floor; Xander was chaining his hands together. She glanced around then caught a weird look she couldn't read on Liz's face. "Liz?"
The redhead glanced at her.
"What did you do?" The slayer asked.
The Wicca glanced at Spike then at the slayer then at the ground.
Chapter Eight
Sara ducked as the vamp swung at her. "Is that the best you got? You've only hit me once this whole time." She was wearing all black, black baggy pants, black tee, black hooker boots, and her hair was pulled back into a bun with a black ponytail. She even had black fingernail polish on her fingers and toes, black eye liner, and large black hoop earrings.
He swung again sending her to the ground. He lunged for her; right when he was close to her he felt a pain in his heart. He looked down to see a stake there, "Shiite bitch!" he muttered and turned to dust.
"That vamp had a potty mouth didn't he?" Liz asked. Sara turned to where Liz was leaning against a large gravestone. Liz was in all blue, blue (carpenter) jeans, sky blue tank top, blue/white/black/red tennis shoes, and her rosy red hair was pulled back with a blue ponytail and twisted into a bun with blue shop sticks. She even had bright blue nail polish on her fingers and toes, light blue eye liner, and a blue earring in all eight holes in her ears.
"Yep!" Sara walked over to her and leaned against the gravestone next to Liz. It had been two weeks since the run in with Angelus, Spike, Mekare, and Cordelia. Sara and some of the gang, mostly Liz and Ryan had all gone patroling almost every night. Liz hadn't touched one magic book in a week, which had surprised Sara and Tara because they had thought she had really been into the magics. Xander had turned into a read machine. He just read for the past two weeks. This bothered everyone especially Tara.
She knew he didn't like to research that much at all and now all of a sudden he had to read everything he had on Angelus, Spike, Mekare, and Darla. When he wasn't reading Xander was patroling and sleeping and eating, but he did that while he read too. Tara also noticed that he never said anything about his patrols but always asked Sara a lot of questions about her patrols and whoever went with her. Sara had asked Liz how she felt about Brian and Zach and she had said they were like brothers to her.
Sara only asked because she'd noticed Brian staring at Liz a lot. Samo hadn't had any more dreams like she had had. Samo had told Sara not to tell anyone about the dream so Sara didn't expect for Ryan. It slipped when they were patroling and talking about dreams. Sara told Samo that she told and Samo said it was all right because she was planning on telling Ryan because he was her brother anyways. Zach was as normal as could be and blew off some of his jock friends a few times to hang out with Ryan.
This surprised Ryan because they'd never been friends they just happen to each no Brian. Sara and Samo had hung out a lot and got to know each other a lot. Liz was happy about this because she knew Sara needed a Sunnydale best friend and not just a best cousin and boyfriend. Liz had always had Zach and then Brian when she turned 10 and he'd moved to Sunnydale.
"Do you think I should ask Tara what's wrong?" Liz asked as they started to walk around.
Sara stopped suddenly and looked at Liz who was still walking with a worried look on her face. "Liz!" Sara yelled. Liz stopped and turned to face her, still looking worried. "Are you sick?"
Liz looked confused a little but still worried. "No...why would you say or think that?"
"You're asking me if you should ask someone something."
Liz rolled her eyes and they started walking again. "I was just wondering jeez...I was trying not to be so rude as some people think I am."
"Sorry it's just not very you like to ask if you want to share your opinion."
"You think I don't no that...it's just I'm really worried about Tara...she seems so distracted."
"Well, I think if any of us ask her about...her current self it should be you cause you know you no her."
Liz nodded. "I get that. I mean...you know Xander like I know Tara and...like...yeahs so anyways...can we like talk about something else."
Sara smiled. "Only if you promise to ask Tara about what's up with her but in your own words the next time you see her and never use like that many times in a sentence ever again."
"Promise." Liz held out her pinkie. Her and Sara pinkie promised and giggled a little. "So what are we gonna talk about?"
"I don't know...what do you think we should talk about?"
"The three vamps coming towards us."
The vamps were about ten feet away now. Sara pulled out a stake. They stopped about 3 feet in front of Sara and Liz. "Well, looks what is going bump in the night...a tramp and two bitches." Liz smirked.
Sara smiled. "What do you three want...cause unless it's being dust then I really can't help you right now."
"Just came to see how alive and kicking you two are." Cordelia smiled.
"Why?" Liz raised her eyebrows.
"Well, you see," She started circling Sara and Liz. "Spike and Mekare have taking a liking to you slayer and Angelus and Mekare to you Red." She looked Liz up in down when she was standing in front of her. "You remind me of a bad ass Willow."
"And Willow is?" Liz glared at Cordelia.
"Xander's dead best friend and the girl he cheated on me with and Tara's dead girl friend." Cordelia smiled. "God I'm soooo glad she's dead...I always hated her."
"That's a real nice trip down memory lane and all but-" Liz started.
"But when are we going to fight." Sara finished.
Cordelia stood in front of her now, she gracefully raised her hand and snapped it. "Now's good." She lunged at Liz, who screamed when Cordy pinned her on the ground. Cordy stood up with vampire speed. Cordy elbowed Liz in the face when she was getting up. She looked down at Liz's un-conscious body. "Nobody touch the red head or you're worse then dust."
Sara heard Cordy yell while she dust her fifth vamp that night. She had been keeping any vamps from doing anything to her but couldn't get to Liz.
"They just keep coming." She muttered dusting another vamp. She saw that there was about five left...not including Cordelia. Two pinned her to the ground she kicked one in the face and one in the gut at the same time. She jumped up dusted the two vamps and turned to where the others were. But there wasn't anyone there. "Liz!" She yelled. "Liz...Liz where are you...Cordelia if you or anyone other un-dead fuck touch or hurt her I'll rip you piece from piece."
Cordelia smirked hearing the slayers threat as she and three other vamps, one caring Liz walked out of the cemetery they were in.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Liz opened her eyes and saw Angelus sitting in a chair drawing something on a large sketchpad. She sat up and found her self in a large bed that had red sheets and red pillows. "Do you like the color?" She looked at Angelus who was staring at her. He smiled at her un-conformable look. She then looked around the room and noticed that it was painted blood red.
"Blood and silk don't really work for me," she ran as fast as she could to the door only to find Angelus standing they're with an evil smile. She opened her mouth to say something or maybe scream but he quickly covered it with his hand so she couldn't speak.
"Shhh," he whispered, "you might wake someone."
She bite his hand that was covering her mouth and started backing up. "No me toque usted fucker, mudo estúpido de la madre de la maldición del dios de la mierda." (AN: in english that means Don't touch me you stupid dumb shit god damn mother fucker.)
Angelus looked confused then realized by the angry look on her face she was saying something bad about him. "What did you just say?" He took a step near her for every one she took back.
"No me toque usted fucker, mudo estúpido de la madre de la maldición del dios de la mierda." She backed right into a wall.
"Do you think you're insulting me?" Angelus was only a few feet away from her.
"Oh trust me you'd soo be insulted if you knew what I was saying English."
"And why don't you tell me?"
"Well that wouldn't be any fun no would it," she could tell she had fear in her voice but she just couldn't not say anything, it just wasn't her, and if he was play a game she was gonna play right back.
"You think you're big and bad," he started, now standing right in front of her, she gave him a 'yeah what about it' look that made him laugh. "Little girl you haven't even seen the good side of the dark."
At the evil look on his face Liz screamed at the top of her lungs.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Sara walked quickly down the street looking for something to beat on, and get some info. on where Liz was. She broke into a fast run when she saw Ryan and Brian walking far up ahead of her. As she ran she looked at the alleys she was passing, she saw a blonde smoking leaning against the wall in one of them; Spike passed through her mind. She finally catches up with Ryan and Brian, who've stopped because of the loudness her running was causing.
Ryan was the first to notice the worried look on her face. "What's wrong?"
Sara gasped for breath, "Liz!"
This got Brian's attention quick, "What's wrong with her? Is she all right? Where is she?"
"Calm down man...we'll find her, let Sara speak first."
"Cordelia took her, an I've got two guesses on to who she took her too." Sara said quietly. Ryan and Brian just looked at her as she quietly told them about her plan to get to Liz. They nodded and started to walk away causally.
Sara took a deep breath and walked as if nothing had happened into the alley where she had saw Spike. Just as she'd planned he was standing right there. Sara rolled her eyes and turned around only to walk straight into someone hard, making her fall on her ass. She looked up into Spike's face.
"Looking for me, luv." He smirked.
"Not likely," She stood up, "more like trying to get away from you."
He laughed and in two seconds had her pinned against the wall. "Missing someone?"
Sara eyes widened, "He's got her doesn't he?"
"Maybe. What you gonna do about it?"
She pushed him away from her. "Go to the place he had her last." She tried to walk away only to be thrown on the ground.
"I'm sure you won't find her there," Spike held her down. "But I'll show you where she is."
"What's the price?" Sara struggled to get up but couldn't.
"How do you know there's a price?"
"There's always a price with you."
He chuckled. "Okay slayer you got me...all you gotta do when we get there is stay there."
It's a trap, her mind screamed at her, but she didn't listen. "You promise to let her go?"
"Of course," he smirked.
Sara rolled her eyes. "Fine, get off me and lead the way." She struggled again.
"Now why would I wanna get off you", he kissed he neck.
Sara pushed him so hard he flew off of her. She quickly stood up, and glared at Spike, "I repeat lead the fucking way."
"You didn't say fucking the first time," he started to walk out of the alley with Sara following him.
Sara was now walking in line with him. "I don't give a shit ok...and this would be so much better if we didn't talk."
Spike didn't say anything for a few minutes as they walked through the streets of Sunnydale. Then he put his arm around Sara.
Sara felt him put his arm around her, and pulled out a stake and jumped in front of him, the stake aimed at his heart. His arm wasn't around anymore. "Don't you ever fucking do that again."
"Ohh, you sure to say fuck a lot when you're angry. Do it again slayer, it's turning me on."
Sara jumped away from him. "That's disgusting." Sara took a deep breath. "Where are we going now?"
Spike smiled. "Well there's a back way to get into the factory and a small room right by the entrance, we could always go in there to have a little fun."
Sara's mouth was hanging wide open. "Gross, get your fucking mind out of the gutter. Now tell me where Liz is."
"Ohh, you said fuck again." Spike turned into an alley and Sara followed. "I think I like being the one who's being followed by you."
"Shut up." Sara hissed.
"You gonna make me, luv." He smiled at her.
"Shut up."
He chuckled and turned right.
Sara followed him; she looked down and bumped into him. "What the fuck?" She moved so Spike wasn't blocking the way. She looked at the very tall warehouse in front of her. She was about to step forward when the hairs on the back of her neck stuck up, she felt chills go through her whole body. She turned around and saw Ryan and Brian fighting a good-sized group of vampires. When she tried to move she found she couldn't, she looked down and there was needle in her arm. When had that gotten there, she thought.
Then everything went black.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Sara came to and found she was chained to a wall. With metal of course. What the fuck was going on? She looked around as her vision cleared. She saw Ryan locked in a cage and Brian in another. What the hell, she thought as she got out of the chains holding her. She saw Liz chained to the wall across the room in a similar manner. She was passed out and very pale, she had little cuts on her face and her arms. Please let her be asleep and not dead, Sara silently bagged.
"Don't worry luv she'll live." Someone said as if they could read her mind. She turned her head to see Spike standing there.
Sara tired to break free again but still couldn't. "Spike, what the hell is going on?"
"Don't struggle, you'll break something if you do." He pushed her against the wall.
"Spike?" Sara felt her bones ache, like they'd been broken then fixed and were now being broke again. "Why does everything hurt like this?"
"Don't ask me."
"WHY?"
"Well the reason you're chained up is cause you know one wanted you to-" Spike started as he moved away from the slayer.
"Not me?" Sara's eyes were on Liz.
"Did you know vampires can be brought back to life, you know wit someone's blood here and another's here."
Sara looked like she was going to explode. "Who?"
"The not so great Master and my princess, and Darla, the bitchy slut."
"Who the hell are they?"
"You'll see." He started to walk away.
"Why Liz's blood? Why not mine?"
Spike turned back to her. "Took hers cause she's a virgin witch my dear, and we did take some of yours just not as much as we did from her."
"But why the hell are you people doing this anyways?"
"Well as you know Mekare wants an army, and he needs leaders luv, and these folks are purely evil."
"And he wants a purely evil army."
"Bingo."
Sara saw movement out of the corner of her eye and glanced at Liz. The red head had her eyes open but she looked like she didn't even see what was in front of her. "Liz!" Sara yelled. She didn't even notice Angelus and Mekare enter the room.
"Well it's good to see someone of you are awake." Mekare smiled.
"Why are we hear?" Liz whispered, so barley anyone could hear. But everyone seemed to hear her.
Sara looked at her cousin with wide eyes. What had they done to her in the last few hours? Her own voice didn't sound like hers and she was so pale and she didn't look like she was really here. Sara struggled at her chains again.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Zach walked up to Sam and Ryan's house. He had a bad feeling, and not the kind that you get right before a test. He knocked on the door, Sam answered it. She looked a little taken back to see him.
"What are you doing here?" Sam asked quietly.
"Well to have a little fun in the bedroom of course."
Sam's checks went redder then Liz's hair. Which made her look even more innocent then her pj's did. She was wearing red baggy boxers that had pink kisses all over them, and a pink tank top. "That'd be very interesting but I'd like to know what you're really doing here?"
"How do you know that's not what I'm really here for?"
"Because I had one of those dreams again."
"Dreams?"
"One that seemed so real that I knew it was. Ryan, Brian, Sara and Liz are in a warehouse behind an alley. They're in major trouble."
"Do you think you could be more specific?"
"I know the way but I can't explain the way."
"Ahh, okay. You go get dressed in something much more then that," this made Sam frown and look her outfit over. "I'll get Xander, Tara and Oz, hopefully we can get all of them out of here."
"This is what I sleep in you know?" Sam raised her eyebrows.
Zach frowned. "That's a shame, I was hoping you slept naked that way I could just slip in and get some action."
Sam's mouth dropped open as Zach let himself in.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Sara kept struggling at her chains even though it was only causing pain and she was no ware near escape. A few people, from what she could tell on the people part, were gathering a few vials and chanting that made no sense to Sara and just confused her even more. She looked over to Ryan and Brian, they were still passed out. When her eyes landed on Liz she found a pair of bright blue eyes staring at her, with no pupils or funny white stuff around them. Sara couldn't help the chill that she got.
Liz could feel the magic flowing though her, she just didn't know what to do with it. She looked at Sara to see if she knew what to do. By the look in her eyes she had no clue what to do. She sighed and saw Angelus staring at her, she glared at him, she'd say something mean and hateful but her throat hurt. The freaks in the black robes were up to know good she could tell but no one would say that were up to. She didn't feel like talking but couldn't help but break the silence that was killing her.
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?"
This got everyone's attention, expect for the robed freaks and knocked out Ryan and Brian. She didn't care if people in China heard her, she didn't remember anything from the last few hours, all she remembered is her conversation with Angelus and she didn't like that memory much. Plus all the cuts on her body hurt like hell.
"Well Elizabeth you see I need an army, I think I may have told you this already but you'll just have to hear it again." Mekare said calmly.
Liz rolled her eyes. "Truly evil, do you ever get sick of hearing yourself talk?"
Mekare chuckled. "So very firey."
"It's wonderful, plus she's real looker." Angelus stared at her, especially her eyes.
"As I was saying," Mekare started again which made Liz and Sara rolled their eyes. "I'm building an army and to get a good army I need good leaders, like the slayer, her close family and some of there friends, plus some very evil dead vampires that I know how to bring back. And if I know how to I might as well do it, don't you think?"
"I think you should go to hell." Sara pulled at her chains yet again.
"Well in your state I'm sure you would."
"And what state would that be again asshole?"
"Spike please shut her up." Angelus rolled his eyes.
Spike smirked and started walking towards Sara, "Gladly."
"Don't you dare come near me." Sara growled.
"You know luv you're absolutely adorable when you're angry and pissed."
Liz smirked. "Don't get to excited Spikey it's probably PMS, you know that time of the month."
Spike turned around and glared at the redhead, who glared right back.
"Children please behave, you have to get along all eternity when this is all done." Mekare looked at the small portal forming in the middle of the robed people's circle.
"They ain't your children." The group, with now an awake Brian looked up to see Xander on a top floor with Zach next to him.
At that moment two arrows shot though the air, one hit Spike close to the heart which knocked him to the ground and the other hit Mekare in the right shoulder.
"Keep the spell going." Mekare yelled as Samo and Tara ran into the large room and helped Sara and Liz with their chains, which they oddly had the keys for. They then helped Brian and Ryan, who were now awake, out while Zach, Xander, and Oz were trying to hold off Angelus, Spike and Mekare. Once Sara was un-chained she went to help, as did Brian, Ryan and Liz who didn't get to far. Suddenly the room filled with light and an invisible force went flying though the room.
When everyone could see again most of them were on the floor. Well Sara and Tara were on there knees while Liz was standing but shaking but the rest were against the wall or on the floor. The freaks in black were gone but now there was three other people standing there. The 'Master', Drusilla and Darla, three of the most feared vampires ever. The white hats wasted no time getting out there as fast as they could, the vampires seemed very distracted anyways.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
The Scooby gang stepped into the magic box. Well maybe stepped wasn't the right word for it. Sara and Ryan came in first; they were practically leaning on each other to stand up strait. Then came Liz who had an arm on Brian and Zach, and neither of them could walk a straight line at the time. After that Samo, Tara and Oz actually walked in while Xander trailed behind them with a defeat look on his face. Tara noticed Sam staring at Zach's butt but made it look like she was staring at the ground.
They all sat themselves on tables and chairs across the shop. Sara, Ryan, Sam, and Brain ended up at one table. Liz and Zach were on the steps lying down, eyes barley open. Tara and Xander at a table next to the one with the 'students' at and Oz sitting on the counter by the cash register. They were all pretty tired.
"So what now?" Liz asked eyes shut.
Half the room looked at her and the other half stayed still. "We wait until we know we can beat them." Xander said.
"That's it?" Sara asked, getting glances.
"What do you mean that's it?" Her watcher asked.
"I mean we just wait. What if they attack us before were all 'ready'?" Sara got a sorta worried look on her face.
"Or they attack us all one at a time? What if they pick us all off one by one?" Liz asked.
"They won't," Xander said strictly and a little meanly, "I've dealt with evil for a good many years and I know they'll come in a big group and try to take us all."
"I disagree...."
The group turned towards the door to the Magic Shop, where the cold voice came from. There stood Spike, Dru, Angelus, Cordelia, and Darla; looking very evil and healthy for dead people. There were also about ten minions behind them.
"I think we'd attack when were strong and you're weak." Angelus smiled. "Don't kill anyone just knock them all out, we need them alive,
Liz ran into the backroom as Sara pulled out a stake and the others ran for weapons. Liz grabbed the orb she'd bought, some erbs from the box labeled Soul, a match, and a piece of paper with a long spell that'd restore a vampires soul, the problem was she didn't know which vampire would get the soul and the orb only worked once for a vampire. She quickly put them in place in order for the spell to work.
While the Wicca was doing that her cousin was vamping everything that came at her. The others though weren't having the same luck as the slayer. Samo was knocked out and lying against the wall and Oz had just run out of arrows for the crossbow he'd been firing with. Xander had staked one vamp but the one he was fighting now was winning. Tara was fighting as best as she could but wasn't getting anywhere. Zach, Ryan, and Brian were working as a team and combined were doing as well as the slayer.
Liz took a deep breath and quickly read the spell before her only to be interrupted her a vamp tackling her into the wall. She screamed but no one seemed to hear her, she grabbed the nearest bottle and broke it over top the vamps head. It, the vampire, screamed as holy water melted it's head, then turned to dust. Liz took a glance out at the fighting and noticed her cousin fighting two vamps at once and Spike coming towards her with a weird look on his face.
Sara dusted the vamp but was punched by another one; she kicked him hard in the crotch. She was fighting only on instinct and couldn't think of what to do next. Sara was so into the fighting she was doing she didn't notice Spike walking toward her until she dusted one of the vamps she was fighting.
Sam heard the fighting but couldn't move even though she wanted to. Zach was standing in front of Sam with his favorite sword fighting anything that came toward the knocked out girl. He dusted the vamp he'd been fighting and found the blonde female vampire that a spell had brought here early that night. Darla, the name popped into his head and out of the corner of his eyes he saw Liz, who was in the backroom, eyes a bright blue.
Tara and Oz were fighting Dru as best they could but even though it was two against one, the one seemed to be winning.
Xander, Ryan, and Brian were fighting Angelus and a few other vamps and quickly loosing.
Liz started reading the spell again and was mentally dead set to finish it. She started chanting faster and faster, she was so into the spell she didn't notice her eyes change from bright blue to black.
Sara kicked Spike off of her and stood up grabbing a stake on the ground.
"Having fun slayer?" Spike smirked starting to circle Sara.
"Blast, you?"
"Dancing is always fun as long as your partner participates."
"Huh?" Sara was distracted for a moment and that was all Spike needed. He punched her sending her flying into the wall.
Ryan saw Sara going flying into the wall the grin on Spike's face. He ran and tackled the vampire to the ground only to be thrown next to his girlfriend in a few seconds.
Sara stood up and went to help Ryan when someone pulled her hair and bite into her neck.
Ryan slowly stood as he watched Spike bite into Sara.
Spike pulled back from drinking. "Like that, boy?" He smirked looking at Ryan. "I've got your girlfriend right here," he pulled hard at Sara's hair, "and you can barley move. Can't save her now, can you?" He bite back into the slayer.
Ryan tried to walk but only fell to the hard floor, he knew one of his legs was broken now.
Liz finished chanting and felt the charge and power the spell had gave to her, and was a little disappointed when it was gone.
Sara felt her attacked pull back for the second time but this time they let go of her. She grabbed her neck and turned around and saw Spike curling up into a ball on the floor. She saw her blood on his lips; his eyes were glowing yellowish white. Then suddenly his eyes stopped glowing; she was so distracted she didn't even notice the vamp that tackled her.
Ryan smiled when Sara staked the vamp that had attacked her. He tried to stand again but was grabbed around the neck; he didn't have the strength to scream when someone bite him.
Dru dropped the boy she'd bite; he was still alive she could tell. She smiled evilly at the horrified look on the horrible little slayer's face. "You take something of mine I take something of yours." She said then grabbed the boy on the ground and ran.
Sara ran after Dru but she lost her quickly and then ran back to the Magic Shop to see if everyone was okay. Everyone was there, scratches and bruises but nothing serious. She looked at Spike knocked out on the floor; Xander was chaining his hands together. She glanced around then caught a weird look she couldn't read on Liz's face. "Liz?"
The redhead glanced at her.
"What did you do?" The slayer asked.
The Wicca glanced at Spike then at the slayer then at the ground.
