fourth stake.

[You're in Tokyo. Don't ask why, that's just how life goes. There's a vampire vs. slayer battle raging, with a ratio something like 1000:1. It's not a pretty sight. If you look up, you'll see one hundred pounds worth of girl hurtling for the ground, all dressed in black.]

Oh, Hell. And I don't even mean that in the literal sense.

[She's plummeting to her death and where was Willow? This was definitely not of the good. As Buffy cuts through the air, one by one the vamps go up in smoke. Her eyes widen as it happens, but by the time she's less than 20 meters over solid ground everyone has vanished, except one girl and one really pissed off witch. Not Willow, either. Bad witch.

The witch has Buffy's scythe and before Buffy can call out, she stabs Renée right through the heart. And suddenly, they vanish too.] Man down. Man down.

[But no one's there to hear her, and she lands almost delicately; unharmed, on the pavement.]

I didn't mean that! [Buffy's not getting any consolation from Laharl anytime soon.] I meant, how the hell were you able to land unharmed?! The humans I know can't do that!

[Although they are capable of other things.]

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

The humans you know aren't Slayers.

[tiniestoverlord.livejournal.com]

Slayers?! [He's heard of them once or twice--girls who can take down demons twice their size (and levels), but he's always dismissed them as a myth.

Now he wishes he should've listened.]

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

Slayers.

[tiniestoverlord.livejournal.com]

...The hell.

[Why does he always run into this?]

So what was that just now?

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

A memory. From earlier today.

My subconscious sure does love him some Buffy tonight.

[tiniestoverlord.livejournal.com]

So...

[He looks up at where the battle had once raged, the battlefield empty of corpses and anything else to mark it.]

That really happened?

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

Yep. [She follows his gaze, looking exhausted]

[tiniestoverlord.livejournal.com]

[Kind of reminds him of the time with Gordon and Jennifer. He shouldn't have expected them to live as long as demons did, they were just humans. And the thing about humans...well, they weren't immortal.

And Slayers...well, he'd heard some stuff. Doesn't mean he heard everything about them.]

And there's no way out of it.

[He states this as a fact. No sympathy, no pity, nothing.]

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

There was only supposed to be one. Well, two.

We changed that. We changed the world.

[tiniestoverlord.livejournal.com]

Why the hell would you do that?

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

Because it was the only way to save it.

[tiniestoverlord.livejournal.com]

From what?

[Because really, he can't imagine anything that would force somebody into activating something in so many people.]

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

You know, the Apocalypse. The end of days?

[tiniestoverlord.livejournal.com]

Heard of it. Didn't care. So long as it doesn't affect my world, I don't care about it.

[slayerpreferred.livejournal.com]

[Ugh] Then why ask?
