Do I Deserve this?: The Hunt
"Angel-cakes are you sure? I mean she's very vulnerable at the moment."
"I know, but you have to remember that she is a slayer and can take care of herself."
Then Fred piped up, "Yes we are aware of that Angel, but she's been through a very traumatic experience and therefore may be more vulnerable than usual."
"If I go out and search for her and when I find her just keep my distance, keep an eye on her and be there if she gets into any trouble, will that make you guys feel better?"
"Yes."
"Fine" said Angel throwing his hands up in the air and giving in, "I'll track down"
Then the phone rang
****
Angel picked out an axe and threw it to Gunn and took himself a sword.
"Angel...what about Faith?"
"I'll find her later; right now we've got a demon to hunt."
****
The demon was feeding on what seemed to be human flesh. It heard footsteps and immediately looked up some gore still dripping from its jaw. Gunn came out from the dark and approached the demon.
"Hey beast-boy..." he raised his axe "why don't you pick on someone your own size?"
The demon licked its lips and charged at Gunn who dodged and came down on its back with his axe. It fell to floor.
"Well that was easy."
Then suddenly it grabbed his shin and bit him. He cried out in pain and fell to the floor. Then Angel came down and stabbed at the demon with his sword, which got to its feet and came at Angel, who morphed, and began to fight. Gunn pulled himself up and held his leg and grabbed his axe which was lying next to him. Angel's sword was knocked away and he began to fight by hand.
"Angel!"
Gunn threw him his axe, it went spinning threw the air and Angel caught it. He smiled a sly smile and then swung it, chopping off the demon's head and the body fell to the floor. Angel walked over to Gunn and helped him up.
****
She lent against the wall of an old building, everything was spinning and blurred. She tried to take a step forward and collapsed on the ground. She turned herself over and tried to get up, but she couldn't. Then she saw him, the man from earlier, he walked up to her and bent down.
"Help me" she said weakly
He grabbed her and supported her on his shoulders and dragged her into the building and over to the far side, where he lay her down. 'Why are we here?' she thought. The man came back over to her and then she could see why, he was a vampire. He vamped out and lay on top of her, caressing her face.
"No...please" she pleaded but he just laughed. She tried to call for help or scream but he just clamped a hand over her mouth and whispered in her ear, "Shhh...there's no need for that is there my sweet." She felt his fangs brush over her skin and down to her neck area, then he bit, pain shot through her body and she blacked out.
I know that this chapter is quite short but oh well. Anyway any ideas where the story can go from here? I'm not really sure so suggestions will be much appreciated.
Thanks Slayya.
