I do not own Buffy the Vampire slayer If I did I would be happy and rich instead of poor and depressed. The same goes for Predator but I wouldn't be as happy...

Chapter 5 Accidents, Action and Explanations

The Prize had noticed him, The Prey and her pride were moving to help it. Now is as good a time as any.

Buffy was moving the instant Dawn fell backwards. A horrible thought stopped her dead in her tracks. While the others were with Dawn, Buffy turned to the window only to see it implode, shards of glass flew out into the house as the partly invisible daemon entered the building. Reacting like lightning Buffy lashed out with a side kick and felt it contact skin, the shot staggered him. Unleashing a hail of punches to his head Buffy forced him back. Between one punch and the next it had grabbed her arm.

Fast and strong! It was fortunate his helmet could take the damage for his face. Snatching The Preys arm and using his other to shatter it mid arm joint he allowed himself a howl of pleasure. His sidekick sent her body into a dividing wall, she ended up in the other room.

Giles had done the only thing he could, ordering the others to get Dawn out of there, he saw Buffy flying out of the fight and made his next move. Raiding the weapons cabinet he found a sword and went into the face of hell for his slayer.

The eldest male, the one who had tried to identify The Hunter. Protecting his pride leader. With his impressive mental capacity his skull will be prized. Becoming visible The Hunter faced off with his target, it's short sword would face his own wrist blades

Giles could now see the monster, readying his own weapon he was prepared to strike. Until two heavily serrated knives reviled themselves from the Head-hunters right arm. This was going to hurt he reasoned.

Buffy was able to shake of the stunning effect of the kick and her head wound. Climbing out of the hallway, her broken arm at her side, she was just in time to see why the thing was called a Head-hunter. Unable to think, she fell to her knees. She barely registered the howl signalling Giles defeat as the daemon hid again and ran of into the night taking part of the man she thought of as a farther with him.

Dawn was in the hospital corridor listening to Buffy talk to the police in her room. They said that they will do their best and left he alone. Going in side Dawn could only look at Buffy. Yesterday she was a pain always getting her own way now, never actually big in the first place, now she looked smaller younger. Dawn could remember when she was about to die at the hands of the master and all the issues after that but even then at her lowest she was strong Even the Angel thing when she was wanted for murder she wasn't this bad. Sitting up with stitches on the gash in her forehead, a plaster cast over her right arm, from shoulder to wrist. She stared at the wall and empty look in her eyes.
"Go to Spike"
"What Buffy?" This was really bad.
"Go to Spike," Buffy turned her head to look at her sister, "Tell him what happened. Get him to take you to L.A., to Angel as soon as possible. Then get him to come back here. Together we could take this thing. Tell him I will pay him anything he wants just to do it now."
"Are you sure, what about Mom"
"He'll follow Mom and me because we will act like you ran off and look for you. Please Dawn I need you out of here"
"Dawn it's the only thing we can do..."
"Mom?" she had come in during the conversation.
"We need to know your safe and Mr Angel can do that until your sister stops this thing"
"Yes Mom, Buffy I'll tell Angel 'hi' from you"

Am I going to bring Angle into the mix. Will the Predator lose its prize Tune in (or log on) later to find out Yes I killed Giles. Why because I need to drive Buffy on and I did say there was angst Until next time
