The next night the gang arrived at the water plant ready to take care of the Darknecklasha. Giles carried an axe, ready to help if necessary. Willow carried an old fishing net. Buffy had a sword, that was not for practice but to actually deal with a demon. Spike had a mace with a wicked looking round spiked metal head. Xander had a knife hidden from view.
Buffy faced the gang and said, "So everybody knows the plan and what their supposed to do?"
Everybody nodded. They entered the building in silence, they avoided an old man who was a security at the front gate. He was so engrossed in reading the newspaper that he didn't notice them sneak in the shadows and enter through the open front gate, that he had forgotten to close.
Once they made it inside it was time for them to split up. "This is the part of the plan where I don't like it," Xander said.
"Come on, Xander you agreed to it remember? It's the only way," Buffy said. They had discussed further plans earlier in the day.
"I know, but it doesn't mean I'm going to enjoy this," he said. "Definitely not an enjoyable experience," he muttered, already thinking of what was to come.
"Everyone go to your places," Giles directed the rest of the gang.
Xander was left all alone, he walked further into the building. He was bait, for the Darknecklasha. He started whistling nervously as he approached the area that contained the water. The water was flowing like it always did. He walked past the railing, glancing at the water as he went by. His eyes darted to the area ahead of him, he thought he saw something. But there was no sign of anything .
"Stop imaging stuff Harris," he told himself. He heard a clinking noise. He turned around, but there was nothing. He continued walking a bit more faster. He walked closely to the railing, he heard a splash and turned to look at the bubbling surface of the water. 'Oh no,' he thought as he felt waves of panic overcoming him.
He felt a hand grip his leg. He looked down at his feet, a slimly looking tail was wrapped around one of his legs. He felt it pull, and he tripped and fell on top of the railing. He went over the railing and landed with a splash in the water. He was underwater. Everything was a blur. He could feel that his leg was longer held by the demon's tail. He began moving his legs, to swim up to the surface. He came up and took in a deep breath of air. 'Where's the demon?' he thought as he scanned the surface of the water. He looked down on the water to see if there was any sight of the demon, He couldn't see anything. He started swimming heading for the railing.
'I'm almost going to make it,' he thought. Suddenly, the demon appeared with a hiss as it wrapped its tail around Xander. Xander screamed, "Help!" The demon took him underwater. Xander tried to break free, but he couldn't the demon's grip was too strong. He was losing consciousness but suddenly the demon came up from underwater bringing Xande along with him. Xander breathed in the air before the demon went again underwater.
This time the demon didn't seem to want to go again underwater. It bared its fangs, Xander squirmed at the sight of them. He tried getting the knife that he had attached to his belt. "A ha," he said as he felt his hands grab the knife. He impaled the blade into the demon's tail that was wrapped around him. He pushed it in further, causing the snake to hiss in pain. The tail released its hold on Xander, causing him to fall into the water yet again.
He began swimming quickly away from the demon. Suddenly the amount of water was reducing. Before he knew it the area was cleared of water. There were only puddles of water left. The demon hissed angrily at the loss of the water. Its red eyes glowed more intensely.
The demon spotted Xander walking towards the railing. He immediately began heading for Xander. Xander just managed to climb the railing when the demon appeared behind him. Suddenly a large fishing net was upon the creature before it could go any further. Xander sighed in relief as he walked away from the railing and bumped into Buffy and Spike.
"I'm glad you guys could make it," Xander said, tired and drenched in water after being held by the demon.
"Let's get rid of this thing," Buffy said as she jumped the railing. Spike joined her. Willow climbed down a ladder, followed by Giles.
"I'm glad you decided to come after I was done with my little swim," Xander said.
"Sorry, Xander, but we were having trouble trying to uh figure out how to drain the water," Willow said apologetic.
"Oh, and then Spike and Buffy had to deal with some unexpected workers, so they couldn't come and help you. They're all tied up now," Willow said.
"But I helped now with the uh fish net," Willow added.
"That's right, fish net girl to the rescue. You can always count on her to save you from snake demons in water plants," Xander joked.
Buffy and Spike were fighting the demon while the others talked. Buffy dodged the demon's spit and gave him a kick in his mid section. She brought her sword up and slashed his chest. The demon cried out in pain. She moved out of the demon's way and made a gash in one of the demon's sides. Spike approached it from behind avoiding its tail, and waiting for the right moment. When the tail was about a few inches away from Spike he brought his mace down on the tail. He ripped off a large chunk of the tail.
Buffy jumped over what was left of the demon's tail and came from behind cutting the demon's head off. The demon died instantly dropping to the floor. Buffy walked away from the demon and towards her friends.
"I'm glad Anaconda's gone for good," Xander said gesturing to the dead demon.
"Me too," Buffy said.
"Yeah, I know now I'll have to clean this weapon up, for the next nasty," Spike said pointing to his weapon. It was drenched with the blood of the demon and it contained chunks of flesh from the tail.
"I would have liked to spend more time with Anaconda, here if Jennifer Lopez had been with me," Xander said grinning.
"But you would have died," Willow pointed out.
"It would have been worth it," Xander said with a goofy grin on his face.
"Right, well I think we should leave now, before any more unwelcome visitors decided to pop in," Spike said referring to the workers that they had encountered.
"Well, Willow and I will turn back on the water," Giles said, gesturing for Willow to follow him.
" We'll meet you outside ok?" Buffy said. They nodded as they climbed up the ladder.
