The Killer In Me: Waiting In The Dark

by BelovedSlayer

"So guys I guess we're gonna have to stay at a hotel where it's crowded.

We can't afford to stay at our houses. The killers will find us there.

That way when we stay at a hotel, there will be security and people there. Do you agree?" Buffy asked.

Within the last 24 hours, the killer had taken another life. Faith's. Time was defintely running out.

"Yeah," they all said in unison. The gang looked like a mess.

They all look exhausted, purple circles developing under their eyes. They were really tired, including Buffy.

Spike, her dead beloved, was still lingering in her mind when

they heard another scream coming from the girl's bathroom down the hall.

Police and students turned their head to see a another student

screaming and yelling. Buffy's heart was pumping really hard.

"They...they're dead. They're dead!!," the girl screamed bfore she fainted. her face went all pale.

"I wonder who is it this time?" Willow said, nervously.

"Step aside ma'am.

We need to see this," one of the cops said, running towards the bathroom.

The gang decided to follow them, wanting to see who else was dead.

The gang stood behind them, their eyes drawn to the tile floor as they

saw the dead, pale faces of Drusilla and Harmony, blood flowing down their necks.

It looked like their necks were slashed. "Son of a bitch. We were

just talking to them just now," Cordy said, almost hysterically.

"I know. it looked like the bathroom lights weren't on though," Willow said quietly, examining the bodies.

"Ladies please you need to step back," a black police officer name

Gunn said, his tall figure blocking the door.

"Ok."

"I guess we better get going guys. It isn't safe here. Let's

go to our houses and

pack our stuff but this time we're all going together," Buffy said firmly when an odd thought hit her.

"Wait a minute Buffy. Where the hell is Xander, Angel, and Oz?.

We haven't seen them for a couple of hours," Cordy quipped

"Yeah you're right. They should of been here already," Darla sid worriedly.

"Maybe something happened to them," Willow replied.

"Maybe. I guess

we should go look for them but don't let the cops see us. We have to go look for them."

"Right," the girls said in unison, walking quietly through the hall's double wooden doors.

They entered the darkened cafeteria.

"Does anyone have a flashlight?" Buffy asked, squinting. It was too damn dark.

"Damn. No we don't. Alright, i guess we have to stick together.

Be on the lookout for any noise ok. We have to be on alert."

"Right."

Shoes squeaked on the polished floor, empty trays lingering

on the round tables when Willow yelled.

"Guys I found them," she cried, tears flowing from her eyes.

Darla, Buffy, and Cordy ran towards the counter, their eyes

scanning the floor as their saw the lifeless bodies of Xander, Angel, and Oz.

"Nooooo!!!" Darla and Cordy yelled in reply.

"Wait guys be quiet. I think there's someone else in here with us," Willow said.

Immediately, the girls shut up, hunching closer towards Willow and Buffy.

loud squeaks were heard on the other side of the cafeteria,

the girls hiding behind the counter as the squeaks came closer and closer.....
