GOTHICA DEE & JESSICA BEE COME TO SUNNYDALE
Chapter 5/Conclusion
"All right," Rupert Giles said to the sisters, Gothica Dee and Jessica Bee, whose sharp fangs continued to send shivers down Xander Harris' back, "assuming everything you said about this 'Glorificus' is true…what are we supposed to do to combat her should she stage some sort of…attack?"
Before either vampire/Slayer sister could answer…
Krrrrraaaasssshhhhh!
…the entire front of Giles' house was blown inward as if from the concussive force unleashed by a very powerful bomb situated on his front lawn.
Although the wood had been reduced to scant splinters and the glass to non-lacerating micro-shards, the sheer dynamism involved was more than enough to hurl the small group, vampire sisters included, sailing toward the furthest wall within the living room area. Sailing back to impact hard enough to cause significant "owies" without doing any actual physical damage.
Evidently, the super-being responsible selfishly wished to keep this gathering of anti-Glory individuals alive. The only question was…why?
"Hello," said a smirking, though unbelievably beautiful, while in Human form, Glory. "I trust there's no need to introduce myself. I'm sure these two bloodsucking bitches did that all too well."
Gradually, Buffy, Gothica Dee, and Jessica Bee first, everyone clambered to their respective feet, brushing off minute debris from clothes and hair; the most spastic being none-other-than Xander Harris, who apparently believed spiders were part and parcel with the debris in his hair.
Finally…
"So," began Buffy bravely, "you're Glory. Somehow…I thought you'd be…bitchier."
"Well," playfully mulled the blonde-haired god from a hell dimension, "you must be the Slayer."
After casting a stern glare at Gothica Dee and Jessica Bee, both snarling like animals with fangs in full view and vamp eyes set and ready, Glory corrected, "The real Slayer."
"You know, Glory," said Buffy as her bravery prevailed over all other potential emotions, "you're gonna have to pay for the damage you've done to my Watcher's house."
As Glory glared at Giles, who had suddenly lost any semblance of male pomposity, as he shakily said, "Uh, th-that's all right, uh, G-Glory…I'm, uh, w-well insured."
Amused by such a lack of true courage with the Scoobies, the hell-god leveled her supernatural powers on the only three who stood as the most risk in regards to a real battle on this plane of existence: Gothica Dee, Jessica Bee, and, of course, Buffy Summers.
"Somehow," said a smirking Glorificus in sexy lady disguise, "I don't think anyone here is going to be much of an…obstacle to my grand plans."
"Looks can be deceiving," said Buffy as she gave a go-ahead wink-and-nod to the sisters claiming to be vampire/Slayers as well as having arrived to assist in putting this demonic super-power down.
Before the Scoobies could react at all, Gothica Dee and Jessica Bee moved with the supernatural speed expected of vampires…and then some.
Buffy was, well, Buffy…
A spinning backhand found Glory's jaw…
A jab followed by an uppercut followed by a left hook…
A front kick followed by a jump spin kick followed by a crescent kick…
All of which Glory took without getting knocked down and definitely not getting knocked out. Then there were the attacks by two vampire sisters…
Gothica Dee employed mostly superhuman strength combined with kick boxing methods while Jessica Bee relied more heavily on hand and fist strikes while also augmenting same with her own superhuman strength.
Both of which were trying to sink their super-sharp, super-long canines into the Human form taken by Glorificus on this occasion to visit the Human plane; both failed to follow through, just as Buffy failed with her Slayer-level fighting techniques.
"You must be kidding me," said Glory with a laugh as her otherwise sensual facial features formed an acrimonious grimace. "If that's all you three have got…"
"Uh, excuse me," a voice said simply with the clearing of his throat, causing Glory to halt her attack long enough to turn to see…
"The name's Oz," said the red-haired, guitar-playing, perennially cool Daniel "Oz" Osbourne with considerable self-certainty as he next tossed a significant amount of holy water straight into Glory's face.
All it managed to do was piss her off, "Why you little troll…!"
And it distracted this hell-god just long enough for not only Buffy, Gothica Dee, and Jessica Bee to press a more coordinated attack, but the Scoobies as well.
"Get off me!"
Even as a bloodied, mostly by bites from Gothica Dee and Jessica Bee, with a little coming from vicious blows delivered by the totality of Buffy's ever-present group, shouted such and, therefore, prepared to unleash literal hell…
Jessica Bee, though it personally pained her greatly to do so, began singing, "In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight…"
And, as such caused Glory to literally rip out her blonde hair by the handfuls, her lovely features twisted into a mask of imminent insanity, as well as being on the verge of a scream…
Buffy and the Scoobies, including Giles and Oz, chimed in with, "uh-Wimoweh, uh-Wimoweh, uh-Wimoweh, uh-Wimoweh, aaaahhhhh-oooooooo…"
"No! Not that song! Anything but that song! Gyyyiiiiiiiii—!"
Poof!
As soon as Glorificus vanished amidst a literal puff of mystical smoke, Jessica Bee, Buffy, and the Scoobies stopped singing.
"That should keep her away," said Gothica Dee as her sister shivered from the after-effects of having been a party to that seemingly simplistic Human song. "For a while."
"Wait!" called Willow with much more grandiosity than such as she usually displayed in any situation. "You can't leave without telling us what it is about that old song that…you know?"
Gothica Dee deferred to Jessica Bee, having recovered completely, to explain…
"It is one of the few songs, seemingly composed by Humans, that causes actual pain within demonic entities. From vampires…and vampire/Slayers…to something as impossibly powerful as Glorificus. There are a few others…but that one is the worst."
As the night, and the individualized Time, passed as it should, now that Glorificus was, for a short time at least, essentially banned from the Human plane of existence...
"We must go," Gothica Dee proclaimed even as she and her vampiric sister strode for the destroyed front of Giles' house. "Just remember…not all vampires are necessarily evil."
"And not all beautiful blondes," added Jessica Bee after fully recovering from The Lion Sleeps Tonight, "are harmless."
After the two vampire/Slayers disappeared into the remaining pre-morning darkness, everyone joined Giles in looking at a totaled front wall, windows, and door, as Buffy wisely sighed, "You don't really have good insurance to cover this, do you?"
Shallowly shaking his head, while removing his small, round eyeglasses, Giles said, "No. I don't."
Not wishing to hang around and get roped into work involving clean-up and rebuilding, Xander said, "Well…wish I could say this was fun, but…"
As Cordelia Chase followed Xander Harris and as Daniel "Oz" Osbourne and Willow Rosenberg left like the innocently in love couple they were, Buffy Summers stayed a few seconds longer to say, "I'd help, but hammering a nail's a lot different than staking a vamp. Maybe, after you do rebuild, you should think about getting some really good insurance. Laters!"
After abandoned by all who'd once stood shoulder-to-shoulder against a hell-god, Rupert Giles, after wiping off his glasses with a handkerchief from the pocket of his casual clothing and, then, returning them to their prior position upon his nose…
"Teenagers."
