What Makes Green Eggs And Ham, Green?
IMPORTANT! Contains Vital Information.
"What?" Giles asked again.
"Were you asleep?" Asked Buffy.
"Err…" Giles realised that he had actually fallen asleep. "No, I was just resting my eyes."
"Like you do when you sleep?" Said Xander.
"Err…yes." Said in Giles in his usual nervous way.
"Any particular reason why you happen to be falling asleep during the day?" Asked Buffy.
"Yes, there does." Said Giles.
"Big, bad evil?" Asked Xander.
Giles nodded.
"What's it this week?" Said Buffy.
"Yes, well, that's the problem." Said Giles.
"What's the problem? Demons comes, Buffy fights demon, demon dies. Simple." Said Xander.
"Yes, quite. But the problem is I don't know what the demon is, when it will come and how to kill it." Said Giles.
"Do you know anything about it?" Asked Buffy.
"It is the Quixote demon who a thousand years terrorised Europe." Said Giles
"And by terrorised you mean…" Said Buffy.
"Total destruction. Landscapes were purged all of their life. Whole towns were wiped off the face of the earth."
"Oh, that kind of terrorized." Said Buffy.
"So not the sort of guy you want to meet in a dark alley at night?" Said Xander.
"How did they stop it? I'm guessing they stopped it." Asked Willow.
"A massive army containing all the righteous knights of the land was sent against it. After a long battle this army was nearly completely defeated. However a courageous knight managed to land a decisive blow with his sword into the demon's heart." Said Giles.
"So to kill it all we need to do is put a sword in its heart?" Said Buffy.
"No, the sword didn't kill it." Replied Giles.
"Then what did?" Asked Willow.
"Nothing. It couldn't be killed. However a group of monks managed to lock it in some sort of spiritual prison or something like that the translation is a little unclear. Anyway it was locked there for a thousand years." Said Giles.
"Why only a thousand years?" Said Buffy.
"It was prophesied that in a thousand years another hero would emerge and would sent it to the depths of hell." Said Giles.
"Is that a Slayer-type hero?" Asked Xander.
"I don't know. The writings are very vague on the matter." Said Giles.
"Now there's a surprise." Said Buffy.
"So, what's the plan?" Said Xander.
"Research!" Willow said excitedly. The others turned round and gave her a look. "I meant research, damn."
"I haven't got a clue what to research." Said Giles.
"So we do nothing?" Asked Buffy.
"I have arranged a trip to England and I will meet with the council. They have vastly superior resources and hopefully will be able to give us more information." Said Giles. "But until then there is nothing we can do."
A frustrated look came across Buffy's face. She hated it when there was an evil that she couldn't fight. Both Giles and Xander saw this and their eyes met as if to share their mutual concern.
End of the chapter. If you would like to know more about how I come up with my ideas then you should stop being so nosey. People have a right to privacy you know. There are some things that you don't have a right to know. You with your tabloid newspapers, you disgust me! Don't you have any morals? How do you sleep at night? You made me visibly sick! I ban you from reading any more of this story. I didn't spend several minutes writing this story so that people like you could read it. I have nothing more to say to you. For the rest of you, please continue onto to chapter five I have a feeling it is going to be a good one. I haven't written it yet but I am thinking about including a melon in the chapter somewhere.
