Amelia-Jane, Sharon, thank you so very much!!

Sorry for late!

Mysterious Objects. (II) (There’s a vague hint to ‘Lover’s Walk’, ‘ Doppelgangland’ and ‘Story Teller’ and something else from Season 7, although it’s very different)

( U2) SUNNYDALE

As promised, at sunset the six vampires went to Giles to establish their plan of attack.

“So, are you ready? Did you sleep well?” the Watcher asked them, welcoming them into the library.

The three couples exchanged some understanding looks, coupled with knowing smiles.

“Uhmm... I wouldn’t qualify that as ‘sleep’!” ES chuckled.

“Anyway, yes, we are more than ready!” Angelus confirmed.

In the meantime, EB was looking at GB, winking at her. “So... also you two?” she wondered, enthused.


“Yep. Let’s say that after his very boring and long reproach, we engaged in more interesting activities,” the other blonde answered with a devilish smirk. “You know, in that house you have such soft mattresses... we just couldn’t help taking advantage of that,” she added.

“Well, and what do you think of the marble floor? Daddy and I have had such good times there,” Drusilla sighed contently at the memory.

“Hey! I didn’t ask you to come here to have a detailed account of your private sentimental lives, if I can even use the word ‘sentimental’ when I’m referring to vampires!” he snapped.

“Yes, you can!” the six vampires snapped back in chorus.

“Whatever. First things first. LES, are you in the right mood now to talk about yesterday, when you and GB misbehaved?” the man asked him and LES rolled his eyes.

“Ok, Ripper, I’ll tell you what bloody happened. We went to the cellar, saw lots of strange hooded beings without eyes, all dressed in black, they seemed kinda easy to kill, the real problem were the bloody rottweilers of the bloody First!” he growled, but Giles looked at him in confusion.

“He means the... you-know-what vamps!” GB clarified.

“Sure, the uber vamps. By the way, good news! Not only did I guard the seal without allowing anyone to get close to it, but today I also found the way to close it, I just had to find who opened it first and it happened to be a student of this school who was bored and easy to persuade, so I made him cry upon the seal and his sincere tears closed it. It means no more... * bloody rottweilers of the bloody First *!” Giles explained, making fun of LES on the last part.

“Good to know, but four of them are already giving us enough trouble, anyway!” LES struck back.

“That’s why we are here, right? To take care of them, and it will be fun, because we like fighting good opponents. After all, we eliminated Willow and Xander, the bloody Master’s right arms, and believe me, it wasn’t a piece of cake at all!” ES bragged.

LES looked at him astonished as his Childe realized what they were talking about.

“He’s right, honey, in this dimension my best friends were very cruel vampires. I know that because, actually, the Scoobies and I met Vamp Willow in our dimension once, but that’s a long story, I’ll tell you another time. Anyway, this is just your fault. See? You and your mania of leaving the town every now and then? You just miss all the unusual stuff!” she blamed him.

“Oh, yeah, sure, because you were all heartbroken and waving a white handkerchief after me when I left the town, after kidnapping your friends to get the love potion,” LES struck back, sarcastically.

“Kidnapping?” ES repeated, very interested.

“Love potion?” EB repeated, very intrigued.

“Are you going to quit with this corner of gossip, so we can resume talking about more important things? Otherwise, I will not be held responsible of my actions anymore!” Giles scolded them, yelling and losing his typical Englishman’s patience.

Everyone kept silent, allowing him to explain his plan.

“That’s better. So, we’ll do things this way. LES, GB and I will fight all the minions, while you four deal with the uber vamps. It would be great if you also managed to take them far away from the cellar, there’s a building yard near there; that would be the perfect place…”

“Consider it already done, mate!” Angelus assured.

“Why do you think that the First is surrounded by all those minions?” Giles asked LES and GB.

“I don’t know, it was almost as if they were digging, searching for something and trying to protect it. Whatever it is, I’m gonna take it away from them!” GB exclaimed, determined.

“And that’s what we are gonna do, pet. Now, let’s go!” LES incited her, leaving the school with all the others, not before taking all the weapons they would need.

---------------------------------------------------------------

As soon as our seven heroes arrived to the cellar, the four vampires of that dimension drew the uber vamps’ attention easily, making them follow them towards the building’s yard.

Once they were there, they started an exhausting fight, with every kind of blows, and after lots of bruises and wounds, the four vampires, a little bit damaged, decided that it was time to resort to the heavy artillery.

Buffy made her adversary fall in her trap, using a very strong iron cable to strangle him, tightening it so hard around his neck that she ended up decapitating him, turning him into a harmless cloud of dust.

Drusilla played her best card staring intensely at two uber vamps, waving two fingers back and forth and pronouncing her dangerous three sentences. The effect was immediate and the two horrible monsters fell under her spell, as she clapped her hands happily.

“Good, good. Now make Mommy happy and kill each other!” she ordered and they obeyed, biting and cutting each other with their so sharp claws until they eliminated each other.

Drusilla went towards Buffy who was sitting on a scaffold.

“Hey, guys, do you need some help?” the blonde vampiress asked as she and Drusilla were checking their nails in total tranquillity.

“C’mon, it’s not that hard, after all,” the brunette vampiress commented.

“Don’t you dare interfere, girls. We’re gonna make it on our bloody own!” Spike snapped, jumping on the last uber vamp’s back, trying to strangle him, as Angelus had lost count of all the punches he had given to his chest.

“They talk easy, well, I don’t have all the old Slayer’s skills and instincts as your girlfriend has!” Angelus grumbled, hitting their enemy with the umpteenth vicious blow... that only scratched him.

“Yeah, and I don’t have two pretty violet eyes that bewitch people as your girlfriend has!” the other struck back, as the uber vamp had managed to make him fall.

Angelus and Spike glanced at two big branches with a lethal pointy end that leant against a wall.
“Are you thinking what I’m thinking, buddy?” Spike exclaimed, looking at his Sire with complicity.

“Sure, I do. What can I say? Praise to the good old wicked way!” the other struck back as they took the big branches and surrounded their enemy from both sides, and then they pierced his skin from side to side, making him scream madly due to the blinding pain, before the two edges met at the same point and after that the uber vamp became dust.

“So, who is up for a little hunt, before coming back?” Angelus suggested and he got an excited general consent from his family.

*********************** (In the meantime)

For LES, GB and Giles it was a piece of cake to get rid of all the minions left in the cellar. And now finally they were in front of the room that the First’s minions had guarded so carefully.

After digging for a while, they could see a scythe stuck in the rocks.

“Stay away from that thing!” The First summoned them, he appeared before them with Caleb’s features, who unfortunately for the First had died before he could meet him in that dimension, so he couldn’t be his faithful right arm, and in that moment he needed him badly.

“Why? What do you think you can do to prevent us from doing it?” Buffy made fun of him, crossing him with her hands.

“Stupid useless incorporeity!” Caleb/The First grumbled, rolling his eyes. “Ok, take it, but remember, it’s not over!” he snapped, fading away.


“Honey, I don’t think that anyone can take it out, it’s impossible to...” Spike said as he tried to draw the scythe out from the rocks, but Buffy cut him off, replacing him. “... draw out!” he concluded, astonished when he saw the easiness with which Buffy had managed to pull it out.

“How did you manage to do that?” Giles asked her, stunned as well.

Buffy smiled, as her eyes shined with a fierce light. “It’s simple, this scythe is mine!”

Sorry, maybe I made things way too easy in this chapter.
Anyway, I hope you’ll still like it anyway ;)
