Chapter 2- Apparent Plans
"Nice job. A little quick, but definitely not too bad."
"Thanks. And I wanted it to be quick. You might have been having fun, but I prefer at least a small weapon before I attack someone twice as strong as I am."
"Relax. I knew you could take 'em. And I've have stepped in if you started to lose."
"After I'd gotten beaten a little, right?"
"Can't let you start countin' on me too much now can I?"
"You know I hate you sometimes."
"Course you do. You're a human and I'm the Big Bad."
Limping over to him, I can't help smile. "Yep, the Big Bad and the Big Bafoon."
"Hey now! No more thinking like, or about, the Slayer and her Watcher. You, Alex, are just as talented as the Slayer. Take her powers away and I'd bet on you beating her to a pulp in no time."
"Nice lies. You are definitely getting better at your fake compliments."
"Anyone ever tell you you're a very suspicious person?"
"Just the people out to get me." Leaning against the wall, I suddenly grin.
"What are you thinking?"
"Nothing."
"Come on, mate. I know that look. When you grin like that it means you're thinkin' something I'm gonna like."
"It does?"
"Too right. So, tell."
