“Where are we going?” Noelle asked Buffy as she followed her through the jungle.
“To find Danielle….”
“The creepy French lady?”
Buffy turned around and frowned at her, “She‘s the only one who knows where the monster is besides she could be worse.”
“How?”
“She could be stuck up and British,” Buffy said with a smile. She had met some watchers from the council and except for Giles and her old watcher back in L.A. they were pretty much stuck up and British.
************************
“You need my help?” Danielle asked the pair as they stood in the shelter Danielle had been living in for so long.
“We need to find this monster,” Buffy said.
“Can you fight?” Danielle asked Noelle.
“Well I have lived in a hell dimension for practically my entire life.”
“Was it very bad there?” Danielle asked.
“What do you think it had hell in its name so yeah it was pretty….hell like.”
“Alright let’s go,” Danielle said, grabbing a bag and placing some weapons inside.
“Where are we going?” Buffy asked.
“To the black rock.”
**************************
“This is it?” Buffy asked, when the reached the black rock, “It’s not black or anything it’s just a big rock.”
“Disappointed?” Noelle asked.
Buffy shrugged, “So where is this monster anyway?”
“Right here,” the monster said, grabbing Buffy from behind and throwing her against a tree, which cracked wit the impact.
Danielle runs over to Buffy as Noelle slowly backs away from the monster.
“Don’t help me, help her!” Buffy yelled.
“I can’t. We can’t help her. It’s not allowed.”
“Is that part of your stupid prophecy?”
“Yes.”
“Okay well then how come they can help him?” Buffy asked, indicating the others that were gathering around for the ensuing fight.
“They can’t. They just came here to watch.”
“So you’re the girl that’s supposed to kill me,” the demon laughed as he stalked towards Noelle, who was walking backwards on to the black rock, “I thought you’d be taller.”
“Sorry to disappoint,” Noelle said, dropping down to the floor and using her legs to try to sweep the demons feet from under him but failing.
“This is going to be fun,” he said, grabbing Noelle by her hair and hoisting her up in the air. He then proceeded to throw her into the outside rock wall of the cave. She fell to the floor, bleeding. Slowly she got up, “I’m sorry did I hurt you?.......good.”
He went to grab her again but this time Noelle dogged out of the way, rolling from his grasp and to her feet. She took out a long knife that she had secured at her ankle earlier. It had been a gift from Ethan. Quickly se moved forward and tried to stab the monster in the heart but he blocked her attack with his forearm.
“You have spunk. I like that in a girl, “the demon whispered to her as he held her there for a split second before sending her careening away from and her knife away from her. The demon walked over to Noelle who was coughing up blood on all fours. He placed his leg under her stomach and kicked her hard, causing her to fly through the air and hit the ground where she rolled to a stop, “They told me you were suppose to be powerful but there no real power here, only a weak lost little girl.”
Slowly, Noelle got up, “That’s what you think,” she said resolve and determination in her voice and demeanor. She ran forward and kicked the demon hard in the stomach and then hit him with a few punches as well before rolling out of the way of one of his on coming blows and towards the knife she had dropped earlier. Before the demon could turn around Noelle plunged the knife into his back and into his heart. The monster screamed in pain and brought his arms back trying to remove the knife logged in his back as he fell to the ground dead.
“That was cool,” Noelle said to Buffy and Danielle who walked over.
“We have to go,” Danielle said, decisively.
“What no congratulations,” Noelle asked.
“We have to go.”
“Why?” Noelle asked, “The demon’s dead.”
“Yup ding dong the demon’s the dead,” Buffy sing-songed.
“Huh?” Noelle and Danielle asked.
“Wizard of Oz,” Buffy said, but only got blank stares, “You two are both pop culturally deprived.”
Danielle shook her head, “The demon may be dead but the others aren’t.”
“Yeah but I thought they couldn’t fight cuz of the prophecy,” Buffy said.
“The Prophecy’ is fulfilled,” Danielle said, “So now…”
“Anything goes,” Buffy said in realization as the others began to move towards them.
“Will someone please explain what’s going on,” Noelle asked.
“Run,” Buffy told her, grabbing the young girls arm and pulling her through the jungle. Danielle ran right beside them and the others followed close behind.
