Chapter 8 - Fangs A Lot!!
Buffy awoke and found herself on a damp floor covered in straw. Looking around Buffy noticed that Faith was laying not far from her, but still out cold. As Buffy waited for her eyes to adjust to the dim light of the room she started to make out the different shapes around her. The last thing Buffy remembered was fighting some vampires in one of the many grave yards of Sunnydale with Faith. Buffy noticed the ceiling was covered with some kind of green glowing fungus. Then she found what she was looking for, a way out. Buffy walked over to the door and pulled on it nothing, then she pushed it, and again nothing. " Mmm locked!! " Buffy told herself.
At the sound of Buffy's voice, Faith suddenly jumped up. " What. Where.. How...!!! " Faith asked Buffy as she picked herself off the damp floor. Buffy turned and looked at Faith and said " Are you OK ". Faith brushed the damp straw off her clothes and looked up to answer Buffy " Yeah I think so!. ... Where the hell are we?" . "I think we are under the grave yard. Well I think we are anyway. " Buffy replied. " Weird green slim, nasty smell, dim light, looks like a vamps layer to me B " Faith replied. Buffy walked over to the door again and thumped it with her hand. Buffy turned to Faith " A little help here would be nice Faith! " Buffy snapped at Faith.
Both Buffy and Faith lined up next to each other just a few feet from the door. " OK Ready? " Buffy asked " You know me B, 5 by 5. Lets do it " Faith replied. Together both Faith and Buffy ran at the door, and with a joint flying kick the door burst open sending wood splinter's all over the corridor outside. Buffy and Faith found themselves in a dim light corridor with the same green glowing fungi stuck to the ceiling. " Well lets go see what we can see!! " Buffy said, and both Faith and Buffy walked down the corridor.
Faith kicked through yet another door in the endless corridors that's seemed never ending to Buffy and Faith. " Remember the good old days B? " Faith asked Buffy to which she replied " What, when it was find the demon, check the sewer check the grave yard oh found it." . As if on cue just then a large green coloured demon with horns came around the corner of the corridor
The demon looked at Faith and then Buffy. " Buffy what are you doing here? " the demon said to Buffy. " You know this green thing B? " Faith asked Buffy, to which Buffy replied " Lorne!! What are you doing here? ". The green horned demon stepped forward another space, " I wish I knew." Lorne replied. Buffy turned to Faith, "Faith meet Lorne from Caritas, he runs a karaoke bar in LA. Angel introduced me to him ".
"When did you go to LA, B?" Faith asked Buffy, " It was months ago Faith.", " So is Angel here as well? " Buffy asked Lorne. " I've no idea " Lorne told Buffy. " Hey, the only thing I know is that I was in my club and some wired looking person in a black robe and some women with a little white rabbit turned up, and then poof. I am here, where ever here is " Lorne explained to Buffy and Faith.
Just then another door opened in the corridor just across from Buffy and Faith and two vampires stood in the door way. Faith slips her knife back in her wrist holster and turns to Buffy and say's " Looks like we have company B ", " Yeah, looks like " Buffy replied. The first vampire looks directly at Faith and says " The master has been waiting a long time to get you back. You must come with us now. " to which Faith replied " Yeah, Well nobody is the master of me, and who is your master anyway? ". The first vampire took a step closer to Faith and continued "Count Strahd Von Zarovich ofcause ", " No sorry doesn't ring any bells guys. So I guess that leave's just one thing." Faith replied. " What do you mean? " The first vampire asks Faith.
With a quick flick of her wrist, Faiths knife was in her hand and she threw it right at the first vampire. To Faith's and Buffy's surprise the first vampire caught it before it hit its target. Then in return the vampire threw the knife straight back at Faith and this time Faith caught it. Buffy looked at Faith and said " Looks like we will have to do this the hard way. ", " That suits me fine, I always like a hard one" Faith replied to Buffy with a small smile on her face.
The second vampire made a jump for Buffy, but she already had him marked and managed to block his attack. At the same time the first vampire went to attack Faith, but she ducked down and kicked the vampires legs out from under him. Buffy continued her attack against the second vampire with a round-house kick which had the effect she wanted and sent him into the wall and brought the vampire crashing to the ground. Faith was back on her feet again with her knife in hand. The first Vampire recovered fast also with a backwards flip and was back on his feet again facing Faith.
Faith looked at her attacker with a smile on her face, " So at last a vampire who knows how to fight! " Faith told her vampire attacker. Faith once again sprung into action with a high kick. The vampire put his hands up and grabbed hold of her foot, blocking her attack with ease. Faith was forced to flip backwards to get out of the hold and once again was back on her feet facing her vampire.
The second vampire that was attacking Buffy recovered himself from the floor, blocking Buffy's follow up attack. Buffy looked over at Faith and she returned the look with a nod of her head. Both Faith and Buffy attacked at the same time on each of their prey, Faith ducked down and did a sliding kick into her vampire hitting him in his ankle. Buffy also did the same move on her vampire and like Faith followed up with a forward punch into the nee cap that brought the vampires to the ground once again. Both Buffy and Faith were back on their feet again and drew their stakes ready for the kill.
Just then a crashing noise came from behind Buffy and Faith and Lorne suddenly fell into them both, knocking them off their feet as a third vampire came up from behind. This in turn gave the first two vampire's time to recover and get back on their feet again. Now the table's where turned with Buffy, Faith and Lorne all on the floor and three vampires standing over them. Buffy looked up and said " Well this can not be good!!".
