Chapter 3. Business Affairs.
Dean starts to come to, but he feels this painful sting on his face. His vision begins to focus and he finally knows what's bringing on that sting. Buffy is slapping him to wake up. The smoke from the smoke bomb has cleared out, but something is missing.
"God, woman, what's with all the violence?" says Dean. "I pity the man that marries you." Buffy slaps him harder.
"Get up!" she yells.
"Hey, I'm awake."
"I know." She shrugs. Dean pushes her away and stands up. He feels the back of his head and finds his hand filled with blood.
"Sammy?"
"He's not here. They took him along with Dawn."
"You think this my fault?" Dean confronts Buffy.
"Yes!"
Dean gets steamed and his manly urges kick in. He wants to punch her out, but he puts that thought behind. Now he has to focus on finding Sam and Dawn.
"If it's the same demons that kidnapped your dad, then we'll find them." Dean heads into the bathroom to grab a towel and clean his head wound. Buffy follows him. He starts to clean the wound slowly.
"Oh, come on. We're going to be here all night. Give me that." Buffy grabs the towel and dabs his wound clean in the back of his head.
"How does it look?"
"Doesn't look that bad. You'll live." Buffy throws the bloody towel into the sink. Dean turns to her.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Dawn and Sam are not. Will you stop asking questions and let's get going."
"All right already." Dean pulls out his keys and they head out to the car. They get in and start to drive down to some old abandoned building, where Willy said he heard some of the new demons in town were staying at. Dean parks a street away from the building and they watch. "That must be it."
"Typical. Always an abandoned something or other. So, when are we busting in?"
"Wait a second. We need a plan first." Dean rolls his eyes and realizes that he just acted like Sam. "Let's bust in." Dean exits the car and goes to the trunk. Buffy follows him out. When he opens the trunk, Buffy is surprised to see all his toys. Her eyebrow rises and she looks at him.
"So, you're a cowboy? Where are the boots and hat?"
"Very funny." Dean pulls out a revolver and hands it to Buffy.
"No thanks. Guns never get the job done."
"It'll hurt him like hell and give us time to free Sam and Dawn."
"Fine." Buffy takes the gun. Dean takes out a rifle and closes the trunk. "How come you get the big one?" Dean rolls his eyes.
Inside the abandoned building, the demon's that kidnapped Dawn and Sam push them into a room. Sam was out cold and Dawn was tied up and gagged. Another demon on the other side of the room looks over.
"Brought her like you said," says one of the demons.
"Good, bring her here," says another demon, who looks human.
Dawn mumbles something and struggles as the demons take her closer to the human like demon in the room. She gives him an angry look.
"Buffy Summers," says the demon. Dawn gives a confused face. "Do you remember this man?" He steps aside and Dawn sees Hank tied to a chair.
"Dawn!" yells Hank. "No! Let her go, please."
"Dawn?" says the demon. "You got the wrong girl. Ahh! I'm working with idiots."
"Sorry boss, but she looked strong and didn't even faze the smoke bomb," says one of the demons that is holding Dawn.
She decides to stomp on the demon's foot. One demon lets go of her and she elbows the other. Sam wakes up and sees Dawn trying to get away from the two demons. He quickly runs towards one and tackles it.
"Oh, she's got spunk," says the human like demon. "She'll be fun." His face changes into a vampire and runs towards Dawn. He suddenly falls back when a gun shot hits him, burning his right shoulder.
Dean and Buffy enter the building. Dawn and Sam look at them and run over to them. Sam unties Dawn as Buffy and Dean keep an eye on the three demons.
"Dad, are you all right?" asks Buffy.
"Buffy?" says Hank, surprised to see his daughter with a gun in her hand.
"Buffy," says the vampire on the ground. "It's you I want. I've waited years for this."
"I feel so special," says Buffy as she hands the gun to Sam. "You guys take the demons. I'll take the vampire." Buffy walks slowly towards the vampire as he begins to get up and fights the pain he is feeling in his shoulder.
"You destroyed my family when Sunnydale came down. I'm taking revenge on you."
"If your family were vampires, then they deserved to be dusted."
"History will know you as the Slayer who lasted the longest, beat the first evil, but also the Slayer who will be killed by me."
"You guys just love to talk on and on."
"Are you sure she can…" asks Dean to Dawn.
"Yes," replies Dawn. "Now, let's take care of these demons." The two other demons get up and walk up to three.
"I've got a plan," says Sam. "Shoot."
"Huh?" says Dean.
"Shoot." Dean shoots the demon on his side and Sam shoots the one on his side. The demons back down a bit. Sam looks over to their left and sees an axe. Dawn and Dean see it and Dawn makes her way to it.
"Wait, that's…" says Dean as Dawn picks up the axe with no trouble. "Too heavy."
"What?" asks Dawn. She ignores him and walks over to where the demons are. They begin to get up. "Shoot the legs." Dean and Sam oblige and shoot the demons on the legs. Dawn quickly swings the axe around, cutting both demons head in one hard swing.
"Whoa," says Dean. "I like her."
"No, Dean," says Sam, rolling his eyes.
Dawn drops the axe and turns to the brothers. She cleans her hands from the dust that came from the axe. Then she blows her hair out of her face.
"An axe, much better than a gun," says Dawn.
Back to the fight with Buffy and the vampire. Buffy gives some quick jabs to his face, making him bleed from his mouth. He is even more furious than before and throws a couple of blows at her. Hitting her in an already wounded area. She winces and steps back. He realizes that and attacks again in the same location.
"Sam, Dawn, go help Mr. Summers," says Dean. Sam and Dawn run over to where Hank is tied up.
"Dawn, what are you doing here?" asks Hank. "How did you find me?"
"Long story, Dad," replies Dawn. Hank gets up and Sam helps him walk. He then sees his daughter take some blows from the vampire.
"Buffy," says Hank.
"Need help?" asks Dean, standing beside her.
"No," replies Buffy. Dean decides to shoot the vampire, but the shot seems to faze him. "Stop it!" Dean doesn't listen to her. He turns his rifle around and swings the gun like a bat, hitting the vampire in the face and knocking him out.
"This side works." Buffy goes over to the vampire on the floor and kicks him in the groin. The vampire yells in pain. Sam, Dean, and Hank saw this and they all hope to never get on Buffy's bad side.
Dean smashes a nearby chair and grabs a piece of wood that is pointy. He walks over to the vampire and runs the stake into his heart. The vampire holds the stake, trying to pull it out, but Buffy with her fist hammers it in harder. Finally the vampire becomes dust and all is quiet in the abandoned building.
