23. From dusk till dawn
But she groaned when she saw who it was: Monsieur Londres.
"Am I too late?" he asked breathless. "Well, in that case? Yeah!" Sarah meant shrugging. Monsieur Londres looked at her dismayed.
Then he let his look wander over the friends. "Oh! Hello Michelle. But how..." "Hey..." this one greeted back and lifted a hand. With the other hand she held on to the shoulder of her sister, who supported her.
Monsieur Londres frowned and so he looked at his Slayer interrogative. "We searched for Michelle, found her and staked the responsible vampires. That was the short summary." Sarah explained. „How are you come this way?" she turned now to him.
"Yes, uh, well... I... I pulled a few strings and..." "Ok, I guess, we don't want to know further details..." Sarah warded off. "Perhaps it isn't so interesting at all. Anyhow not so interesting what we did last night!" Hannah meant nodding. "You have really staked the powerful head of the vampires Krakatau?" Monsieur Londres asked. "No, I don't want to know at all how you know this again!" Sarah replied and shook her head. "Yeah, Sarah has staked him." Catherine answered the question.
"And we would like to go home now, 'cause we're all pretty tired after this hard night... but of course only then, if you don't mind..." Sarah looked to her Watcher grinning. "Well, um, actually there's nothing against it any longer, because the head of the vampires is dead...." "But?" Sarah asked now sharp and looked at him with pinched eyes. „He wasn't the last powerful vampire you will meet!" "Uh, if it's nothing else..." Sarah made a derogatory gesture. "We'll cope with them, won't we?" she turned to her friends. "Yeah, sure, all the time!" Michelle grinned.
"What about when we try how they react to sunlight?" Hannah asked now giggling while she turned to go with the others, after they nodded to Monsieur Londres. „That's a good idea, Hannah. We put a list together and try out what come off the best. We imitate the foundation of testing merchandise." Sarah agreed. "We also can write a book: 'Manual for amateurs of the Vampire Hunting'." Catherine suggested. Alicia replied enthusiastic, "Yeah, right. This becomes a best-seller and we'll be famous." Michelle laughed and added, "Yeah, and maybe we'll come to Hollywood where I become an actress and..." So the friends left.
Monsieur Londres watched behind at them with a shake of his head and sighed, "The world is lost."
But a smile came to his face when he followed the friends into the ending night the four friends and Sarah, the Slayer, saved the world...
