Chapter 5

"So," Gunn said to Buffy while carrying his brand new high-tech cross bow in his left hand. "What's it like having all that slayer strength?"
"Did you not hear that from Faith? She's all for being a slayer!"
"Yeah, but you've been through more! I mean, you're the original!"
Buffy looked around at the empty lot. It was pretty empty. "It's about the same type of strength that Angel has! Except I'm still stronger than Angel!" she said with a smile. "So, how come we're in an empty lot?"
"Well, right here is where that Yurinia demon was last seem, the one with the tentacles on its stomach! It's a pretty nasty demon apparently, so I thought we could kill it!"
"Sounds like a normal slayer day! So, the baddie is supposed to be here, right?"
"That's what my sources say."
"Does this demon have three spikes at the elbows on its arms and is a deep reddish brown color?"
"Yeah, you fought this thing before or something?"
"No, its right over there," Buffy said as she pointed about 10 meters behind Gunn.
The Yurinia saw them. It started to run towards them. Gunn got out his fancy cross bow and shot an arrow at the demon. It hit one of the small tentacles on its stomach. The demon hissed. The spikes in its arm shot out towards Gunn.
"Ooowww." Buffy heard come from Gunn. She turned around and two of the six spikes had penetrated into his left hand and his stomach. The crossbow fell out. Buffy jumped towards the demon kicking him in his head. The demon quickly recovered and hit Buffy in the stomach throwing her through the air. They fought for a while. Gunn watched unable to do much besides watch them fight. He admired her fighting style. Fast, strong, and still had a lot of grace. She could toss that demon further than the demon threw her! It was perfect. Every single attack of hers emitted a huge blow. Finally once the spikes grew back and the Yurinia appeared to be weakened, Buffy pulled two out and thrust them into the demons upper chest and face. It fell. The spikes evaporated and blue ooze emerged from the body.
"Eeewww, these are my new shoes!" Buffy complained while kicking the blue-blood like substance off her boots. "Hey, are you okay?" she asked after turning towards Gunn.
"Yeah, it's all good. Man, you sure can fight! You actually have a bit of style unlike the other superpower people I've seen! Oh god, this stings!" Gunn pulled the arrow out of his stomach. "It's the hand I'm worrying about, these are fighting hands!"
"Gee, thanks! Hey, watch out," Buffy said. A male vampire grabbed Gunn from behind and flung him. "Hey vampie, get away from him. Or are you into guys?" Buffy asked the tall dirty hideous creature.
"I'd watch my mouth if I were you, little girl!" the vampire said.
Buffy punched him in the face, "Who's afraid of the big bad slayer?," she asked.
"You're a slayer? I've always wanted to catch me one of those! Guess who'll be my first!"
"In your dreams," she said. Buffy punched him in the face than went to kick him in the stomach. As soon as she did the demon grabbed her leg and flung her into the air, and she landed flat on her back. The vampire jumped on top of her and was about to bite her, when all of a sudden he got attacked. by Spike. Spike threw him off of Buffy and onto the ground, then pulled out a stake and quickly dusted the vamp.
"Spike," Buffy said as she got up. "I could've killed him myself. I can't believe you did that, just like when we lived in Sunnydale!"
"No, I saved you in Sunnydale when I had to do that, you were just too stubborn to say so admit it. And still stubborn you are, slayer!"
"Spike, I have no time for this, I have to get Gunn to the doctor!," Buffy said as she helped Gunn walk to his car.
"Well here, let me help!"
"That's all right Spike," Gunn said.
"You're in no condition to drive, I'll do it!" the persisting vampire said.
"Fine," Gunn replied. The three of them all went into Gunn's '88 Ford Mustang and drove towards Wolfram & Hart to see the office's doctor. * * * * * * * * * *
