"Ah, Spike, you remember," Alexa said, as she turned to face the girls. "Let's see what they know." She went over to them. "You're queen is gone. Where is she?" They didn't answer her. "Okay, let's do this another way." She morphed into her vampire face. "For every wrong answer, I'm going to eat one of you. I do enjoy children's blood." The girl's eyes filled with fear and she smiled. "Now answer my question."
Giles and Willow watched as Alexa began to circle around the girls. They watched her every movement in fear. "Why is she doing that?" Willow asked Giles, as she looked over at the ex-watcher.
"That's her way," Spike said to her, as he came over to their sides. "Lex took tips on how to make your prey scared, from us. Now she's using the technique to get the info out of the little ones to find her little one."
"I"m getting tired of this," Alexa said, as she grabbed onto one of the young girls and hauled her off the ground. "I grow hungry." Her face morphed into her vampire one and the little girl in her grip paled. "I tend to crave children's blood more often than grown ups. It's much sweetier, pure."
"Leave her alone," the other girls cried in unison. "We don't know anything." Tears soon were running down the sides of their faces as they looked around at each other. "We don't know."
Alexa sighed as she released the little girl. "That's what I figured." She then shot a glance over at Faith. "You remember anything that could help us locate Sara?"
"Not much," Faith said, as the vampire frowned as she shot a glance over at the girls. "The Demon didn't want them to know. He wiped their memories before he left."
"The Demon is smart," Alexa said, as she headed for the door. "But I'm smarter." She then was gone.
"And where does she think she's going?" Spike said out loud, causing the others to turn to face him. "What? I know that was going on in everybody's mind."
"I'm sure that she has her reasons," Willow began only to freeze when Alexa came back in the room carrying her daggers. "Or reasons why she would need sharp knives." Alexa turned and threw one right at Willow. Willow was shoved aside by Spike and the dagger sank into the chest of another Demon. "Oh, good aim."
"They always travel in packs, never alone," Alexa said, as she went up to the demon. "Where did your Master go?"
"I will tell you nothing, half breed," the Demon sneered at Alexa as it got to its feet.
"Fine." Alexa's face morphed back into her human one. "You want to play nice, we'll play nice." She then threw the Demon across the room. "I always like to play nice." That got a smile out of both Angel and Spike.
"Can I play with you?" Faith asked Alexa, as she came up to the vampire's side. "It seems like a fun game to play."
"You'll never get me to rat out my master," the Demon sneered. "I would rather die before I tell you anything."
"Well we can't allow you to die then," Alexa said, as the Demon lunged at her, knocking her down hard onto the floor. "Ah, that's not nice." She quickly jumped to her feet. "Didn't anybody ever tell you to respect your elders?" She blocked the Demon's next move, and got a kick in the side for it. "This isn't working." She helped the rogue Slayer to her feet, and Faith shot her a smile. "Somehow this Demon is stronger than the one that took Sara."
"Because he's a body guard," Angel said to them, as he and Spike came up beside them. "We've come across them before. They are dumber than the Masters but stronger than them. It takes more effort to take them down than it does to take down the Masters."
"Now you tell us." Faith cracked her neck, as they got ready to take on the Demon once more. "Let's do this."
"Bring it on," Faith put in, as another Demon came rushing out at the girls. "Another one?"
"Protect the girls," Alexa said, as she and Angel rushed towards the one Demon while Spike went along with Faith to attack the other one. "Just like old times, Liam."
"Yeah, just like old times," Angel said, as the Demon kicked him in the side. "I hate these guys." He blocked a punch and got a kick into the Demon's side. "They take forever to take down."
"Oh, that's comforting to know," Spike said, as he was knocked to the floor. "Any idea how to take them down without getting us killed in the process."
"They don't like fire," Alexa said, as she took a blow to the chest and ended up on the floor.
"Neither do we, love."
"Well do you have any better ideas?"
"Yeah, I do," Angel called out, as he tossed a sword at her. "Magical swords should hurt him."
"Goodie, magic swords," Alexa said, as she swung it around before turning to face the Demon. "Okay, let's do this. Let's see if we can get it to tell us where the other one took Sara."
"Sounds like a plan." Both vampires advanced on the Demon while Faith and Spike fought the other one. Fred, Giles, and Wesley were able to get the girls into Angel's office to keep them safe for the time being.
"Okay, I'm only going to ask you this once," Alexa snapped at the Demon as she knocked it to the floor. "Where is the girl?"
"The Master took her," it replied, as it stared up at the two Vampires. "The Master has great plans for her."
"We all ready know that. Where did the Master take the little girl?"
"I will not tell you half breed."
"Wrong answer." Both vampires brought down their swords on its arms trapping it to the floor. "Try again. Where did it take her?"
"I will only tell a slayer."
"Well we're in luck, we have one."
"You do not."
"Yes, they do," Faith said, as she came up to their sides. A quick glance showed Spike standing over a headless Demon. "Where did they take the girl?"
