Chapter 3 - Ball of Light.

Darla pounced on Buffy, her teeth almost touching her neck. Buffy punched her hard several times in the stomach and she drew back in agony. Vampire Willow walked closer to Willow and before Willow knew what was happening, she was behind her holding her neck firmly.

"Now, you get one chance. Me and you together could be an amazing yet terrible team, are you sure you don't want me to make you a vampire?" Her long, sharp nails stroked Willows neck and Vampire Willow twisted her so that they were facing each other.

"I...I..." She stuttered.

"Yes?" Vampire Willow leaned in closer her piercing eyes looked deep into innocent eyes. Willow spat at her.

"I'd rather die!"

"Suits me fine!" Vampire Willow's face was angry and scary. Just as she leaned in towards her, Buffy knuckles the back of her neck and a fist full of strength came at her face twice. Vampire Willow toppled over and Spike ran in and kicked her in her shin. She tried to punch him but Vampire Willow pushed on it hard and Buffy felt her bones crack. A prickly pain burned throughout her arm.

Vampire Xander moved towards Xander.

"So this is me human. I don't remember me being as lame as this, nor do I remember my clothes being so..." Xander interrupted.

"Hey, if your going to hurt me don't abuse me with your mouth cause, evil me, that's just lame!"

"I'll give you lame." He through a heavy blow at Xander and Xander ducked, earning a knee in the nose. Xander tasted blood in his eyes. A smile crept on Vampire Xanders face.

"Now who's the lame one?" Xander reached up at the nearest item, a lamp, and swung it at him numerous times, mostly missing.

Buffy got onto her feet and tripped Spike over. Willow suddenly felt that there was a need of magic and spoke in a deep voice.

"Mars, God of Pain, War and Destruction," Her eyes turned black and mysterious. "I beg of you, send me fire and sting, give this vampire all that I bring." Willows hands turned red and hot.

"What the..?" Willow leapt forward at Vampire Willow.

"Burn!" She said. From her hands came red electric fire bolts, sparkling and smoking. Vampire Willow screamed as they poured into her arms leaving black and red marks on them. Getting very angry she shouted,

"So your ready to play with the big girls now, time to play!" Vampire Willow jumped at her, scratching her. She felt heavy blows coming at her but she continued saying,

"Burn," and they came from her hands moving towards Vampire Willow's chest. They both were suffering different kinds of pain and when they couldn't take it no more, they sprang off each other to opposites sides of the room.

Vampire Xander moved grabbed the lamp. He threw it at the wall and it smashed. He picked Xander up by his throat and clenched his fingers.

"Bet that hurts!" Xander kicked him in the groin and he hobbled in pain. Pleased with himself, he broke of a table leg and both the Xanders moved in circles, around and around each other.

Spike ran in, his teeth bearing, his neck reaching forward. He smiled to himself as Buffy was sitting on the floor trying to move her arm.

"I knew that evil looking Willow would come in handy!" He said with an evil grin on his face. Buffy got a kick in the face from him. He laughed. She couldn't take anymore of this from Spike.

"Looks like I'm feeling all better," She got up and with all her energy, sent a flying kick at his face and two punches to his chest. Spike was kneeling down and Buffy was towering over him. She reached to her back pocket for her wooden steak and she held it to Spikes chest.

"You're a pig Spike!" She said. Spike could feel the point of the steak on his skin. She was just about to push it forward when someone pulled her hair hard back.

"Poor Spike! Can't hurt poor Spike!" Drusilla said crazily. She pulled Buffy up and said. "Look into my eyes." Drusilla started swaying and Buffy began to too.

Xander rushed at Vampire Xander with his table leg. Knowing they couldn't win here, he yelled,

"Buffy! Willow! Do something! Willow," He saw that she was sitting down, leaning her back against a wall. "A spell! Before this gang of nasties get the better of us!"

Willow thought to herself, 'we can't fight them off this way, what else hurts vamps? Light.' She smiled to herself and it was as if a wind blew her right up.

"Light from the dark, show us the way to murder!" A small ball of light grew in the middle of the room, twisting and turning, round and around, getting bigger each turn. Drusilla turned from Buffy, stopping the hypnotism, and shuddered with fear.

"Oh Spike. Get us away from this pretty light! Spike!"

"Coming Dru!" He leapt in, feeling it burn him, grabbed her and they ran out into the night. Xander and Willow, suddenly realising what was happening, turned and ran. Vampire Willow turned around and said, before she left,

"Another time, we'll bring in the pain!" Noticing the ball was getting even bigger, Willow, Buffy and Xander helped each other out from the house and made their way to Willows house, where they rung Giles and tended to their injuries.
