You see a star with a circle around it painted
with the blood of various beautiful virgins on a hard cement floor………you
hear chanting but it's barely a whisper…….you can make out flashes of shadows
moving around in a circle with glowing eyes…….you see the moon reflect
off a crooked knife as the apparent leader or this group heaves it into
the air………the chanting pauses………..“This is for destiny!” cries the leader
as he plunges the knife into the heart of the last virgin as the camera
cuts out we hear her last blood curdling scream…….
Cut to the park at
night you see Buffy and Willow walking together out on ‘patrol’.
“I mean really…….destiny just sucks!!!” Buffy complains about, no doubt
her slayer duties.
“Yeah I know what you mean….” Willow replies with hurt in her eyes.
She's clearly still hurting from Oz's actions.
“How would you.....well I guess that counts,” Buffy replies a little carelessly.
“Hey!!!!! I thought that you'd be a little more caring about the
world of love, considering that well……you've had ALOT of bad experience.
Well you know what I mean……you can relate….to the hurt that is.”
“Yeah….” Buffy's silent for a moment as her past pains return. She
then starts to smile remembering all of the good times she's had and realizes
that she's almost completely over Angel.
“What? What'd I do now? Something I said……did I make a funny?”
Willow gets excited at the thought.
“No…….sorry Will………it's just…….I realized that I'm finally over Angel,”
she pauses, thinks for a minute and then adds “well as over him as I'm
EVER going to be.”
“You know what…….I think that's true, lets go over to Xander's and all
of us can go party!”
“Oh what the hell? I said I'd patrol and I did so………..party at the
dorms!!!!!!” They run off in the direction of Xander's house with
bounce in their strides.Fadeout.
Fade in to Xander's
house, in the basement, Xander's on the phone with Anya who's out of town
as the two girls appear at the top of the stairs and start to descend.
“Hey
guys!!! What's up?” Xander asks surprised, yet happy to see
his two best friends. “Oh, uh…..Buffy and Will just came down,” he
replies into the phone.
“Oh……is now a bad time? We can do something without you if you're
busy..” Buffy says to Xander, dangling the bait in front of his face.
“Oh….Anya?
Can I call you back later, say……..tomorrow?” Xander asks, then squishes
his face in pain and quickly changes his mind. “Ok! I'll call
you later tonight, but it might be late. Ok……buh-bye.” He hangs
up the phone and looks to the two girls who are covered with HUGE giddy
smiles. “So what are you two up to?”
“There's a party on campus and we thought we'd go…….have some fun, you
know” Willow replies bouncily.
“Sure…….but what's the occasion?”
“Well uh……..um…..Will…you'll tell him won't you?”
“Oh…..well, Buffey's finally over Angel so we thought we'd celebrate….you
know, it's been a while” Will shrugs.
“Congrats
Buff!!!! Uh, I'll be up in a minute…..I just gotta throw on some
actual clothes.”
“Ok…..we'll wait outside for you” Buffy replies.
Cut to outside the
house Buffy and Willow are busy making fun of Xander's current ‘girlfriend’.
“Yes dear……..sorry dear……..what dear?” Buffy and Willow laugh as Xander
comes out of his house.
“Ok
lets go!!!!!”
The gang runs off
towards the bronze. Fade out.
Fade in. You
see a mansion filled with chandeliers, fine china, classical music and
fancy dresses and elegant suits. You hear chatter and laughter but
it's muffled somehow. Zoom out to the outside of the building.
You see a young woman looking through the window at all the people.
She sighs and runs off to the barn, saddles her horse and rides off into
the night. Cut to the woods. You hear fighting and as the camera
turns you see the fighters. It's the same women but you can now see
that she's wearing an old fashioned dress and her hair in ringlets, is
pulled back from her face. You also see that her foe is a vampire.
The fighting continues on for a while until she sends the vampire flying
into a tree, as he hits the tree a branch is driven through his heart.
The girl sighs, dusts herself off, then gets on her horse and rides back
to town. We see that it's almost dawn. Fade out.
