DISTANT EVIL
Rogue-angel82
Buffy the vampire slayer faced down her newest threat bravely, trying not to show how utterly unprepared she was for this attack. She gulped slightly as she prepared herself to face down...the bills. The kitchen table was covered with them. She sighed and shoved the papers away. Climbing to her feet, retreat never worked for Buffy but at the moment she could think of no other course of action.
She was out the back door and down the pathway on to the street before anyone could say the word 'patrol'. The town was dead, even for the undead. Buffy crossed the blokes without of much as a good staking. She gave an aggravated sigh, and loathed the thought of going back to the empty house. Dawn was at a friend's, the others off somewhere. That left Buffy to herself, and her own slayer duty.
Almost on a whim she headed towards the outskirts of the town, down towards the docks. The smell of fish and seaweed making Buffy to wrinkle her nose. She always hated coming down here, but it was a large vampire breading area.
The sound of scraping down a near by ally caught her attention. Frowning slightly she changed her direction and went in investigation. She paused at the entrance of the ally as she spotted three vampires rummaging around in some trashcans. She planted her hands on her hips and struck a poise of an annoyed parent.
"I mean really," she says to catch their attention, "I never thought you guys could get anymore disgusting. But I guess you proved me wrong. What are you looking for anyway?"
Together the snarled and charged her. The slayer threw a punch at the first one, using its own momentum to throw it backwards. She reacted to pull a stake from her belt loop of the jeans where she usually kept them, only to realise she had forgotten to get any. Her momentary lapse of concentration, gave the vampires a perfect opportunity to attack. One tackled her, sending them both back into a pile of wooden crates. They shattered under them and Buffy grinned, the idiot vampire had given her weapons against them. Snatching up a nearest piece of wood she drove it into the heart of the vampire on top of her, flipping to the feet as it turned to dust around her.
The others seemed to have learned from their late companions mistake, being more careful and attacking together. Buffy grabbed hold of one, throwing a kick at the other. Pivoting she threw the one she held into the other and they both went down. Buffy took her chance stepping forward to dust them both while they were both down. Moments later all that was left was their dust floating on the soft breeze.
Buffy stepped out of her fighting stance and headed back onto the dock, only to pause at the ally opening as a new sound reached her ears. It sounded like hooves on concrete, as if a horse was galloping down the dock. Just them a large black horse came into view heading straight towards her, its rider of tall figure wearing a flowing black cloak. Buffy froze her mouth slightly a gap. The large horse snorted and the rider seemed to squeal pulling a long rather cruel looking sword. No longer frozen on the spot Buffy turned and run, knowing this area was not a good place to fight such a thing, not that any place would be. The sound as hoof beats and jingling metal told her the thing was in pursuit, she dove aside rolling out of the way as the black horse thundered past attempting to run her down. She stood just as the rider turned his horse and headed back towards her.
Right at that moment Buffy wished she was back home doing the bills, or hell even in high school doing a math test instead of here facing down this thing. The black-rider came towards her, but this time the slayer stood her ground. Stepping aside at the last second as the thing past, she reached up to pull it from its mount. Only to it out a small cry of surprise and pain as she came in contact with it. She stepped back clutching her hand, feeling as if she had just dunked it in freezing water. She looked up with a new fear as the thing circled around about to make another pass.
She quickly glanced around for a weapon, spotting a metal poll laying not that far away amongst some cargo boxes. Buffy dove after it, snatching it up and turning. The thing came after her, it sword held for a ready strike. Again Buffy stepped aside at the last moment, this time swinging the poll like a bat at the horse legs. It connected with a crunch and the horse screamed in pain as it went down head first into the ground, throwing the cloaked rider.
The thing came up slowly, menacingly. But Buffy wasn't about to let regain any ground. Taking another batters swing, this time at its head, she sent it rolling sideways. It lost it grip on sword, which Buffy snatched up. Thrusting the weapon towards the thing, but it was its turn to dodge. The sword pieced its shoulder, and Buffy clenched her teeth was she used a large amount of her strength to hold it there.
The thing threw its head back and squealed, the sound seemed to echo around to dockland. It drew its hand arm back and backhanded her, sending Buffy reeling. Her cheek stung, and Buffy reached up and touched it, drawing her hand back she saw blood on her fingertips. She looked up regarding to thing with a cold fury. The thing seemed unaware as it threw back its head a squealed again. Suddenly a light surrounded them, all most as if a spot light was illuminating them. It was to blinding for Buffy and she shielded her eyes from the light.
It was almost like being underwater, as things seemed to loss gravity. Movement was slow and hard as her feet left the ground. She glanced around in a panic, noticing the same thing was happening to the black rider. Was it the cause of this? She wondered, as the light seemed to fade and become replaced with flashing greens and blues, shades of red. Black joined in until it surrounded her and suddenly it was all she could see. Then nothing.
