Closed starter for @sinnaer
"I've always wanted to kill a slayer," the biker vampire Buffy was fighting growled at her. "And I've always wanted piano lessons," Buffy quipped back, dodging one of his punches. "So really, who's surprised we have all this unexpressed rage?" Tonight's patrol expanded into the lot of an old building. Buffy punched the vampire and then followed it up with a kick in the stomach. "But, honestly, I think I'm expressing mine better," she said. The vampire growled and tried to tackle her again, but he missed and she jumped on his back."Tell you what," she said. "You find yourself a good anger management class...." The vampire threw her off, but she found her footing and slammed him up against the fence around the lot. The biker vampire took another swing at her, but she punched him sending him staggering backwards against the fence. "And I'll jam this pokey wood stick through your heart," she finished. Before the vampire could react, Buffy staked him and he exploded into dust. "I think that sets the world speed record for closure," she mumbled as she put her stake away.
"Hey, miss!" Buffy heard behind her. Startled, she turned around and came face-to-face with a security guard. She immediately tensed up. How much had he seen? "If you're looking for one of those rave parties, I'm afraid you're late," he said. "Chased a bunch of kids out of here last night." She was relieved. Better he thought she was a raver than know the truth, whatever the hell a rave party was. "Oh, right," she said, unsure of what to say. "Darn. My fellow ravers will be so disappointed. It was my turn to bring the Bundt cake." The security guard didn't seem phased. Actually, he was kind of nice. "You know, if it was my call, I'd let you do whatever you want," he said. "It's not like anybody's using this place or nothin'. But they just don't pay me enough to argue with the boss so..." He trailed off. Buffy took the hint. "Already gone." She turned to leave, but he called her back, picking up a yellow glowing orb. "Take your....whatever this is with you," he handed the orb to Buffy. "Thank you," she answered him, staring at the orb.
"Glow balls, huh?" the security guard laughed. "I swear, I don't get your generation. What is that thing?" Buffy stared at it as she walked away. "Let you know as soon as I find out," she answered him distracted. She couldn't stop examining it. She'd have to show the gang tomorrow. Unfortunately, she was so distracted, she found herself back in the cemetery. Again. She groaned. Why did her muscle memory always take her through a cemetery on her way home? She should be done for the night. She sighed. Another sweep wouldn't kill her.....
