The next dusk….

The blood bowl, a little gift by the Order as a kind of deathday gift for this coming into the Order, a most delicious gift since it was the combined blood from all the elders attending, only given to very few. Powers jump, strength and stamina double, a vampire's protein shake.

Spike and his Sire walked into their oversized apartment in Sunnydale, rented specifically so they didn't need to stay in one of the many motels, laughing their heads off and whipping the stray blood from their lips.

"So the Order is having another ball, why again are we going?" Angelus questioned tossing his jacket on the couch before sitting down.

"It's not just a ball you big Poof it's a party to show off Dacius' new Childe, his daughter. She's supposed to receive the blood bowl, and The Order specifically said if we didn't show up that we'd be 'dust in the wind'" Spike said.

Angelus looked down in thought and gave a small chuckle. "So Dacius finally made himself another Childe, probably a bohemian, burly thing who's never touched a man in her life." He laughed

"Yeah that or a scrawny little librarian type made to keep Giles entertained." Spike cried out then took a drink of his whiskey

"So we go there, show up, add some blood, make fun of the ugly bitch and go on a hunt." Angelus said matter-of-factly.

"Sounds about right, though I wonder what makes this chit so special that is Dacius' first Childe in over 400 years?" The peroxide king questioned

How did you like that teaser? Well I had to have this scene to introduce our tall dark and studly vampire… so this time the ball is next I SWEAR

Thanks for reading
