No hunting like...

Air Date: 26/09/2001

7 Sep 2000, Thursday 10pm+, Geek house

Gemma goes over to the video night. Casey and Mary are there. It finishes around 2am and people go home (although some sleep over).

7 Sep 2000, Thursday 12:08am, Berkeley nightclub

Jayde and Faith go to a skanky student nightclub. Jayde stands out because 'everyone else is, like, so unfashionable'. Meet Thomas and Miriam. Chat about stuff.

Miriam buys Jayde a drink and chats to our hero for a while. She is quite surprised to see Jayde 'here'. It seems she knows the twins bookshop and promices to drop in.

Faith finds a vamp, so our slayers go outside to pound on him. They learn about hunting party at the mall. Stake vamp.

Goto the mall and look for the van (with the hunters in).

Faith asks where she stands in 'Jayde's city'. Jayde says she doesnt know. Faith rants about watchers and stuff and how she cant leave but her presence here is somewhat dependant on Jayde. Faith also mentions that she drempt that she killed Orme, but someone killed her while she was wounded.

Killing hunting party at the mall (oddly Faith 'stakes' with her knife, 'hey that shoudlnt work'), Jayde and Faith split up to look for the remaining vamps. They find the vamps out the front and Jayde dusts one and then chases the other. Faith catches up as the vamp hides in a park. The slayers hunt him down, but its Jayde that stakes him.

Jayde calls the cops over the wounded food in the back of the van. She was going to go back in person, but chasing that last vamp round the park really got her pumped up for more than just dropping some smuck at the hospital.

Faith wants to patrol more, but Jayde goes home, although they make a 'date' for tomorrow night which seems to make both of them happy.

Casey is still sleeping when Mary wakes up with the alarms.

Mary gets up, showers, notices blood in the bath and finds her bags moved. Having Faith's 'sugar bomb' breakfast cerial, she goes to leave the house, but then being paranoid, comes back and looks round. Listening at F's room she hears nothing, until the door opens.

"Errk!"

"You ok, down there?"

"Um, yeah. Blood. There is blood in the bathroom!"

Faith's eyes go wide. Fear? "Err, what?"

"Is it yours? I saw a few drops of blood."

Faiths fear seems to evaporate, "Oh, err, yeah." She leans forward and pulls her top down a bit to show the bite mark on her back (which is still weeping a bit).

"You ok?"

"Yeah, got bit by some demon. Poison apparently, but I feel fine."

"Eeeep!." Mary runs off to uni.

More bloody dreams. :)

Jayde looks down and see's her hands buried in the earth. Looking around she finds herself in the large marble 'sacrifice room' from her earlier dream. On the marble floor is a large 4 pointed compass star (but yes, she is still squatting in the dirt). A gentle wind blows over her face, carrying on it faint whispered voices. Opposite her arrow point there is a dull light flickering and to one side, there is a gentle lapping of water.

Hold on, Ive had this dream before thinks our hero. Yeah and... suddenly the dream continues.

Jayde looks at herself, she has her own knife dug into the soil in front of her and one had buried in the soil each side of it.

Looking towards the Flame, Jayde see's Faith walking forwards. Her lips are moving, but she can't be heard. In her hand she carries her knife, covered in blood. The blood drips to the tip of the blade, forms a drop and then drips up into the air, poofing into a flash of flame and a whiff of smoke.

To Jayde's right floats Buffy, facing downwards she hovers in the air, her hair and clothes flapping unnaturally in the air. She too is speaking, but nothing can be heard.

To Jayde's right, is the primal slayer, walking about 3 inches off the ground. In her hand is her black dagger. She is walking forward and Jayde gets the impression she is communicating something.

The shot pulls back, but Faith and the Primal are walking towards the center of the circle. Buffy is floating, not really moving. Jayde's point of view is apparently called a "Zoom in, track back shot" in the film biz. But hey, this isnt a TV show.

Hmmm. The origional preslayer dream Then the Phantom eternal monday dream. So we had the hand in the dirt dream. And there was that disco dream with the Orme and the primal.

Then there is that weird religious nut ranting. Crazy old cia gov nut Then there was the Prophesy stuff that Henry brought.

And thats ignoring all the Rosebud stuff, the "Buffy drempt that Faith goes on a killing spree" dream, Faith and her dead sister, Faith's beating Orme dream and... err.. not that anyyyyyyone else would have had any dreams. No, that'd never happen. Oh and then there's the back in the 80's dreams too where Gemma 'gets to know' Nick.

Alex explains that the Calgor were gating from swampy, jungle, eat things, dimension (but Jayde doesnt seem to want to eat human flesh just yet, so thats probably a good sign).
