Chapter 4
"Okay I have a plan." Joan was telling the gang.
"I'm all ears." Alex was saying, recovering from his state of shock and was now fully conscious.
"They seem to want Randy, and I'm pretty strong. Super strong, so me and Randy will hold them off while you escape through the trap door and we'll meet you at the hospital."
"I'm not leaving this shop." Anya was quite content on staying where she was and was obviously not happy with Joan taking lead all the time.
"Okay, you and Rupert see if you can do some sort of magic thingy. Ready Randy?"
"Ready Joan." Randy gave Joan a quick nod of agreement.
As Randy and Joan were leaving, Rupert intervened.
"Erm, son. Come here please."
Randy walked over to his dad. The two men were obviously not showing affection for each other and never had done before. They quickly gave each other a hug and a pat on the back and Randy and Joan were gone.
As the pair went running outside Randy pushed a vampire to the other side of the street.
Randy was amazed by what he'd just done and thought he was a superhero too. That was until Joan saw Randy and run off.
"Hey I'm a superhero too." Randy shouted until he noticed Joan had run off screaming.
"Hey! Joan wait up!" Randy shouted as he ran after the blonde.
Back in the sewer, Alex and Tara were stood at the bottom of a ladder helping Dawn. When Dawn was finally down it was Willows turn to climb down into the dank cellar.
Willow stumbled and Tara was the one to catch her. The couple looked deep into each others eyes before pulling away.
"Thanks." Willow said giving Tara her best smile.
When they thought they were safe a vampire ran in front of the gang. They all ran in the same direction and away from the monster.
In the magic box and Rupert and Anya were sorting through books, when Rupert found a piece of paper in his jacket pocket. As he examined closer he realised it was a plane ticket to London. He wondered for a while why he had it, but Anya walked over to her fiancée with a book in hand.
"This books the one for us."
"Okay, does it focus on mind control or memory loss?" Rupert was asking his soon wife to be.
"Not exactly, my intuition tells me it's the one for us."
Anya opened the big book, its cover dank and ripped in places. She began reading, as she finished her spell a rabbit popped out of no where. Anya screamed and wrapped herself in her boyfriend's arms. Anya was obviously scared of bunnies.
Back in the streets of Sunnydale Randy was still chasing Joan. As he caught up with her she fought him to the ground and sat on top of him.
"What the bloody hell are you doing?" Randy asked feeling uncomfortable with the position.
"You don't know who you are?"
"Right none of us do and we're been chased by…"
"You're a vampire." Joan told Randy.
"How can you, me? Vampire? No."
"Check the lumpies, and the teeth."
When Joan told him this piece of information Randy started poking at his face. Sitting up and tilting his head Randy now realised why Joan had run away. He was a vampire!
"I kill you kind." Joan reminded him.
"And I bite yours."
The both paused and stared at each other.
"So why don't I wana bite you? And why am I chasing other vampires?"
Neither Joan nor Randy knew the answer to these questions.
The shark demon was stood in an alley way outside the magic box. He was waiting anxiously for his head minion to come back with news. Hopefully good news and not bad. He hated to get burned on a deal and so he wished to take care of mister Spike personally.
When his head vamp returned he knew it was bad news.
"Boss Spike and the slyer went that way." The vampire pointed to the direction of where Sunnydale's famous coffee shop was.
"Find him. But I want him alive. I shall take care of him myself."
"What about the slayer boss?"
"She can watch her little vampire friend die. Right before she does."
