Drusilla’s Soul- Ch. 28

DIGITAL WORLD- NIGHTMARE SOLDIERS

There was a dark castle in the middle of the desert that was surrounded by large, towering mountains. Inside, there were many more rooms with countless different rooms that contained different types of weapons.

In one room, there was a beautiful woman wearing a purple kimono underneath a black catsuit. She had long black tied up in a geisha bun with a golden ornament in her hair, leaving her bangs apart on the sides of her face. She had a bat tattoo on her forehead called Mark of Evil. She had purple eyeshadow, purple lipstick, and purple nail polish. In her right hand, she wore a golden gauntlet called Nazar Nail, everything she had touched and she had four bat-like wings on her back, the small ones on her upper back and the large ones on her lower back.

She was sitting on her throne in the center of the room, the moonlight shining through her windows giving a silver light to the scene below. She drank her red wine as it made its way from her glass to her lips. Her mind drifted away from everything around her as she focused solely on herself and what she was going to do next. Everything seemed normal and peaceful until all the guards walked inside the throne room. When they reached her throne, they bowed down to the ground and then raised themselves back up again.

"Lady Lilithmon, we have located a man who is heading towards the real world with his companions," said Dynasmon.

"Oh? Tell me about him," Lilithmon said, her eyes never moving off of her wine bottle.

"His name is Angelus, and he's a vampire leader of Fanged Four. He's already killed several humans before he came here." Dynasmon explained.

"Hmm..." Lilithmon placed a hand over her mouth as if she was thinking hard. "Is he strong?" she asked.

"He's very powerful, my lady." answered Dynasmon.

"How strong are his friends?" Lilithmon tilted her head and asked.

"I wouldn't say they're weak either. They're quite well known for their prowess, but I'd expect them to be stronger than him. The cult is called Order of Aurelius and they claim to be followers of a new god, a demon called The Master." Dynasmon finished.

Lilithmon didn't answer, she was still lost in thought. She looked at Dynasmon after she finished drinking her wine. "Order of Aurelius, huh? I've never heard of this before. What makes these people so powerful?" she asked in a curious tone.

"They claim to be descendants from demons that lived hundreds of years ago during an era where humans still lived on earth." Alphamon began explaining what she knew. "The Cult believes that those ancient beings can resurrect humans using their blood; this makes them extremely dangerous when it comes to fighting against other demons. They also believe that they can control the dead, which is why they call themselves the Order of Aurelius."

"Interesting... I wonder how much power they actually possess." Lilithmon mused.

"My lady, I have heard of this woman who has a soul. Her name is Drusilla. She was a member of Fanged Four that she used to work with. Angelus murdered her family and made her insane before he turned her into a demon. He had her in 1860 in London when she joined Angelus. 42 years ago, she was cursed by Kalderash clan to have a soul and she knew what she had done and she fled from the team. After that, Drusillla still had a soul and saved people from Angelus,” said Dynasmon.

"A soul? Interesting." Lilithmon curled her lips into a small smirk. “I wonder how strong she really is.” Lilithmon stood up from the couch she sat on and stretched.

Lilithmon walked to the window, her long dress gliding as she walked. She looked at the full moon, it was like a pearl shining down upon her.

"Well, Dynasmon, Alphamon, gather the strongest troops and prepare our forces for war." she commanded.

"Yes, my lady." said Alphamon and Dynasmon in unison.

They left the throne room while Lilithmon saw these two left. She smiled to herself.

‘Angelus, huh? I should give my men a try…’ Lilithmon smirked before turning her gaze to the night sky. ‘Drusilla is such a beautiful girl. Beautiful as I am.’

Laboratory - 11:40 AM

"Let's commence with the final test, shall we? This satellite is the one I've used in my studies of this particular object, and it was my understanding that you are interested to take a look at it if it works as expected," said Mr. Trick, showing Darla what he had brought along for the examination.

"This will cover the sun with the red sky above the Earth's surface, which you know can be seen from the broad daylight if you look at. Let the test begin," said Mr. Trick, pressed the button as the panel was opened, and the two victims were standing outside of the opened door.

There was a hideous beast coming out of the entrance, it was a large bat, looking humanoid standing 16 feet tall. It had black skin with no fur, had a muscular build, and its wings were spread behind it, like some sort of huge bat's wings. Its head-triangular, with a flat face and horn-like protrusions with certain bat-like features, but its eyes had no pupils. The mouth was wide open with sharp fangs protruding from it. In place of hair on it, there were spikes growing out of the skull.

The creature screeched inhumanly loudly. Both men screamed in fear. The creature was about to hunt them, but the sun burned the bat aflame.

“Hmph. A surprising result,” mused Darla.

“It has an effect similar to the sun’s radiation, but far more intense. Intiate the red sky,” said Mr. Trick, pressed the red button as the satellite activated.

The sky had turned blood red and everything around it had turned dark except for the white light emanating from the street lights.

“Now let’s do another test,” said Mr. Trick.

The panel opened once again, another bat demon began to slaughter the both men and them.

“Dead God! Never thought I’d see the day when vampires can really look in daylight,” amazed Darla.

“It exactly works perfectly. The vampire blood has a much higher concentration than sunlight or any other kind of energy source. So much so that it gives off an extremely concentrated amount of radiation. Even the UV rays won’t cause any real effects,” explained Trick. “In fact, vampires have found their own way to use this radiation when fighting against their enemies.”

“How impressive. And you say that you can create a super strong, radioactive substance in a matter of a second? That would explain why we don't see the effects when the vampires are exposed to the sunlight,” said Darla.

“Yes… But even vampires can’t survive without eating blood or some type of animal blood to replenish itself. With this red sky surrounding us, we can able to walk into the daylight and hunt them humans,” said Mr. Trick.

Darla grinned wickedly, “That would be the best possible scenario for vampires, wouldn’t it? To hunt humans like prey. And destroy the race of man.”

12:30 Shibuya, Tokyo

The citizen walked lively down the street and the transportation stopped at every traffic lights they encountered as they continued to head towards their destination. The schoolgirls chatted while they were strolling down the street.

Davis walked inside the Starbucks and ordered his treats. He ordered a caramel Frappuccino and raspberry jelly danish.

Meanwhile, the sky had turned something onimous red due to the sun’s heat. The streets in Shibuya were still packed full of people, but they were all heading into the convenience store and coffee shop that would have been considered as a luxury if not for its location next to the subway station itself.

The man noticed the sky was hint of red and frowned slightly upon seeing it.

“Hey, look up there,” said the man as he gestured upwards with his hand as a signal for others who are near to him to follow suit. A few bystanders looked up in the direction of his gesture and confused.

“This sky is a bit red, I’ve never seen it anything like this,” said the man 2.

“It sure looks pretty onimous,” said the woman, slightly worried.

After Davis paid for the Starbucks and thanked them and exited as he carried his treats. He took a sip of his caramel Frappuccino and hummed happily at the taste. It wasn’t too strong or too sweet, which made Davis like it even more. He was a man of his word after all, he always kept his word.

As he was walking along, he noticed something unusual happening in front of him.

“Look, Mommy. The sky is turning red,” said the little girl pointing to the sky.

“That’s weird,” her mother agreed. “I thought the sky was normal just now. Are you sure it isn’t because of the sunlight?”

“No, you didn’t see how red the sky was. This is different,” said the little girl.

‘Red sky?’ thought Davis was puzzled. He then looked up and the sky turned slightly red.

‘Where did it come from? And why does the sky turn red?’ thought Davis.

Just then the sky turned redder and redder, until it turned a dark shade of red as the sun vanished behind the horizon except the lights still left from the city.

“What the hell?! Everything is red!” exclaimed the man 2.

The citizens began clamoring over each other to try and figure out what was going on as well as where the sun went.

“I’d better call the others,” whispered Davis to himself. He reached out for his phone and contacted Tai.

At Kamiya Residence

“Yeah, I see it,” said Tai that Davis told him something terrible had happened. He had no idea why the sky had turned red, but it certainly sounded bad. “We need to go right away.”

He hung up and scowled at the sky, it was red and everything. How is it possible that the sun suddenly disappeared and the sky turned red without any reason at all? What has gone wrong?

Some fandoms really want every mean girl character to be Cordelia Chase or Miu Kamenriderfourze. Nothing about their canonical characterization can prevent this fanon characterization. But I'm sorry, not every girl is cut out to be a queen

Part Seven - Rogues

1928

Spike found himself running through woods in the middle of the night in search of his beloved Drusilla only to find his sire dancing on a field, which had been scorched by fire, as the raven-haired vampire continued swaying from side to side, laughing away at herself in the process making Spike curious to what she was up to now. “Dru, what are you doing out here?” Spike asked the woman he loved as he walked towards her, pulled her body into his arms, and began dancing with Drusilla. “Here on these very grounds lies a future of torment, torture, and agonizing pain…it’s so delicious it makes me giddy!” Drusilla replied as she continued to slow dance with her immortal lover. “One day I’m going to raise a family right here, and will almost be worth all that I’ll have to lose before then…” “I was worried you got yourself killed babe; you know you’re not at your full strength,” Spike confessed admitting his fears for her. “Oh, my dear William, I will be the only one who will not die, not once, even at times when I’m so lonely I wish I would die…” Drusilla sighed with a profound sense of sadness, wanting to stay in that moment but knowing the future was coming. “You’ll always have me!” Spike protested, meaning what he said with all his heart but not knowing what the future would hold for him and the woman he loved more than he could ever imagine loving someone…at the time.

1977

Following Angelus leaving her after regaining his soul and Darla returning to The Master, Drusilla knew her time with Spike was nearing an end, that the quest for her to become strong again would be the beginning of the end for them both and despite how much sadness the thought of losing her beloved Spike one day, she knew her and Spike’s trip to New York would bring some happiness to them both as Spike set out to kill his second vampire slayer, Nikki Wood, while Drusilla set her sights on siring a new vampire, the first child of her new family. Drusilla had spent most of the night watching Tobias from a distance, she followed him as he walked home from his work at a diner nearby to his rundown studio apartment, watched him as he got strung up on drugs, and noticed that this man was far from the one she had seen in her visions. At first glance, this man was no more than a depressed junkie who without her input would die a nobody within a matter of years, but as she watched him further, she began to see the potential hidden deep within him and decided to make her move. “How sad a life you must live to need to block it out with every toxin available to you.” Drusilla greeted Tobias after he opened his apartment door to her, the vampire waiting in the hallway, ready to claim him as her own. “I can feel your pain as if it was my own and I know you are so lost you think you cannot find a way out of your despair, but mummy can make everything all better.” “Did Mick send you? He always did like his girls crazy as hell, just hand me the drugs already and tell Mick I’ll pay him when I get my wages from the diner.” Tobias replied to her, having no clue who she really was nor what she had planned for him. “I do not know this Mick, but I do know you, Tobias, I know who you are now, but I also know who you can be. I can give you meaning in this world, a purpose, and a love that will consume you…you will never be alone!” Drusilla said in a rather convincing tone, acting if she was the answer to his many troubles. “Whatever you are on lady…I want some.” Tobias responded in a mocking tone, confused by who this woman was and what she wanted from him. “I can you make you stronger than you ever imagined, give to you a family you have always longed for, make you part of something truly incredible and even lead you to the love of your life…once I make you worthy of him of course,” Drusilla promised the young man, knowing this time that her words were somewhat resonating with him, tempting him to give her a chance to prove she was telling him the truth, a chance which she would use to turn him into a vampire-like her…

The 2000s

Drusilla stood in the same field she had once stood in the late 20s, but what was now standing there was the abandoned building of an insane asylum, a building which had been built, used, and abandoned within the years since she had last visited this field. and the vampire could not prepare her eyes, for the place was even more beautiful, to her at least, than she found it in her many visions, and now that she had lost her beloved Spike, she could at least find some salvage in claiming the home she had dreamed off for many decades now. “It’s been a long time my darling boy, mummy would be so mad at you if you were not the only family, I had left…for now,” Drusilla told Tobias as he began walking up towards his sire until he was stood next to her. “I really did love that man just like I loved Angelus and grandmother, but they are all gone now…” “I still do not understand why you wasted so much time on that peroxide prick but then I’ve never been in love, if it were not for you, I’d have found it impossible for any vampire,” Tobias replied to the vampire who had created him. “You’ve certainly had your fair share of conquests though; you’ve been a very naughty boy but the time for you to settle down with your forever love is coming soon and mummy could not be more excited,” Drusilla revealed to him, knowing she was going closer to forming a new family, one she believed would be even better than the ones that came before.

Modern Day…

Buffy and Spike’s on/off relationship had reached its inevitable end almost two years ago, when their last split led to Buffy’s one night stand with Angel resulting in a baby which led to Buffy going M.I.A. after losing that baby, and in her absence, Spike had taken over the duties of protecting the city of San Francisco, a city which included Buffy’s sister Dawn Summers, Dawn’s daughter Joyce Harris, and Spike’s on/off roommate Xander Harris in its population. And it was during his patrolling duties within a local cemetery in the city of San Francisco that he was reunited with an old friend, one who would lead him into joining a mission to kill the first woman he ever loved… “Sneaking up on a vampire is a rather foolish move considering the heightened bloody hearing and everything,” Spike shouted into the dark night as he turned around looking for a face to come out of the shadows. “Calm down Spike I was merely trying to surprise an old friend.” Ruby Moon stated as she appeared from out of the shadows. “Someone who I owe my life to and yet have the audacity to ask another favor of.” “Well, if it isn’t the little witch, I helped break free from my ex-Dru’s crazy cult,” Spike said with a smile on his face, happy to see the witch in question. “I heard you were all suburban wife again living the normal life or as close to it as one can get married to one of Riley Finn’s G.I. blows.” “It’s good to see you again too!” Ruby responded with a chuckle as she walked towards the vampire, whom she considered being a good friend, one who she knew she could rely on. “So, go on and tell me what you need saving from this time? Please do not tell me your back being the ex’s magical minion again because you only get one save from that, the second time is on you!” Spike told her with a level of sarcasm, knowing he was about to help her again no matter what situation she had now found herself in. “Remember the friend we left behind? The one crazy enough to consider Drusilla as family. Well, he’s forming a team to kill that ex of yours, and something tells me you will want to be part of that team.” Ruby revealed to the vampire. “I’ve put Dru in my past and if you are smart you would too, let this friend of yours go it alone if he’s so determined serves him right for not getting out when you gave him the option anyway.” Spike rejected her offer, not loving Drusilla anymore but not wanting to be part of her death either. “This friend of mine is Theo Frey, and it just so turns out his mother happens to be your latest ex Buffy Summers’ son, I figured telling you that would help change your mind and everything considering you do not want to be the one telling the slayer that you had a chance to save her son and said no.” Ruby continued with her revelations, shocking Spike by the latest, knowing with certainty he would not reject her offer a second time.

Elsewhere, back in the city of Los Angeles, Theo Frey was once again stood behind his now run-down dive bar, the one he shared with his now-dead again lover Tobias, frozen in thought, with tears in his eyes, as he began to wonder whether Tobias was as guilty as Drusilla for killing his parents, wondering if his entire relationship with Tobias was just a lie and he had been nothing more than a fool to both him and his sire Drusilla. Suddenly, the very place he returned to for comfort, the place he lived with Tobias, and the place they have both called home, had become nothing more than a place of ruins holding memories of a past that the vampire/slayer hybrid could no longer believe to be true after Ruby’s recent revelations. “I did not think I would be seeing you again especially in the place you almost burned to the ground.” Theo declared after drying his eyes, as Faith Lehane, the vampire slayer determined on pestering him forever, walked into what remained of his demonic little dive bar. “Well, it’s not like you can be picky with your customers considering you only have half a bar these days.” Faith joked with the vampire as she walked over to the counter cautiously. “Your little friend Ruby left me this really sketchy video about you and her going to take out Drusilla and now Spike seems to be in on this little mission so I threw my hat in the ring considering you could do with another super strength in the ring, and something tells me you’re not exactly going to be hitting up B or Angel anytime soon…” “Ruby said something of getting some vamp help, but she never said anything about Spike and as for you no thanks, the last time I played with you, you turned my lover into ashes, well your blue-haired pet did anyway.” Theo snapped at the slayer, refusing to team up with her after their complicated history. “I get that you do not trust me, and I do not trust you but here’s the thing Dru’s a big player and she’s made an enemy of everyone not just you so, swallow your pride dude, and take the help I mean it’s better taking too much firepower to the vengeance party than winding up losing her…she’s survived this long for a reason kiddo.” Faith advised the slayer of slayers, trying to convince him to accept her help. “If B hears I’m not going you know she’s going to get herself involved, I mean it was hard enough telling her to sit this one out like it and I will not even get you started on Angel…” “Killing Drusilla…it does not mean I’m suddenly team slayer or anything, it just means, for now, she’s number one on my hitlist…” Theo explained to her. “I will not protect you; I will not save you, and I most certainly will not thank you.” “Well, that sure as hell seems like a yes to me.” Faith smirked, knowing Theo would rather chance to trust her, than giving Drusilla too much of an opportunity to escape his vengeance. Once Theo reluctantly agreed to work alongside Faith, and Ruby returned to Los Angeles with Spike in tow, the team consisting of a vampire slayer turned vampire, a rogue slayer turned good, a vampire with a soul, and a powerful witch began planning to strike Drusilla where she’s least expected to be attacked, at the one place she called home…

Faith, Theo, Ruby, and Spike found themselves deep within the woods, the same woods that Spike had once visited many years ago, and the same woods Theo and Ruby knew all too well thanks to their time with Drusilla, and before long the group of rogues had found themselves standing outside of the abandoned insane asylum, boarded up with planks of wood that themselves had been broken, with smashed windows, and a general sense of abandonment, abandoned in the middle of nowhere, the road to it long gone, hidden in shame of its own secrets A truly horrifying, and haunted place filled with misery from its past, and the perfect home for an insane vampire-like Drusilla. “I get you’re on mission vengeance and everything here Theo but what are the chances you are going to turn us all and lead us into some kind of slaughter?” Faith asked Theo, as the four remained hidden within the trees, beginning to question Theo’s loyalty towards this team of rogues. “The only person I hate more than you and the blue haired bitch is Drusilla so as long as she is alive you are safe but the minute, she’s dead we’re back to being enemies,” Theo answered honestly, making it clear he had no intention of seeking redemption. “He looks like Angel speaks like Angelus and smells like Buffy,” Spike stated, referring to Theo’s similarities with his biological parents. “Got to say it’s as hot as it is annoying!” “Listen up do not let your past get in the way of dusting Drusilla once and for all or else you’ll be joining your ex in the afterlife!” Theo quickly threatened Spike, proving he distrusted them as much as they distrusted him. “You were her minion just days ago I was her equal, if we have to worry about anyone getting second thoughts then it's you, not me!” Spike responded, making it clear he was down to do what needed to be done. “She killed my parents, there’s no going back for me even if it kills me, you better know it's going to kill her too!” Theo declared defiantly as he prepared for the fight of his undead life.

Instead of just charging into the abandoned asylum, Theo decided to get his poker face on, going in first and playing nice with his former mentor Drusilla, as he got a layout of where her minions had placed themselves, knowing the vampire was always ready for an attack, ready to strike before anyone else, as her asylum had become her armed kingdom. Despite the disgust over having to pretend not to entirely loathe the woman that had killed the parents who had raised him since birth, Theo knew it would be worth the cost once he ended the night plunging a wooden stake into Drusilla’s chest if he could convince her that he was still an ally of hers, the problem, of course, being Drusilla was always one step ahead. “My first family was taken by Angelus before he decided to take me too…” Drusilla told Theo as they walked down one of the many hallways found within the abandoned asylum that Drusilla used as her headquarters. “But then I found a new one with him and Darla, then my Spike but your mother took that all from me which is why I found it so fitting that I was the one to take you from her…but you were never really mine were you?” “What are you talking about? I believed your every word, did every demand and loved you like a son, I have been loyal to you since the first time I met you and I continue to be.” Theo argued with her, fearing she already knew of his intentions to kill her. “I took you into my home and loved you like a son, I even loved you when you took Tobias from me because I knew that was the way things had to be but now you’re too far gone for me to save…” Drusilla said with a great sense of sadness as the two stopped walking, and Theo noticed vampires appearing from both ends of the hallway, as he realized she was the one ambushing him. “The only thing I can do for you now is killing you and hope you are reunited with Tobias in whatever hellish dimension you are sent to.” “You really do see everything coming, don’t you?” Theo asked as he pulled out a wooden stake from his jacket pocket. “You killed my parents, pretended to save me, and had me fooled to think you as my savior all this time! I trusted you…I fought for you…I loved you!” “Everything I did I did to make you who you are today, the slayer of slayers, the world’s first self-sired vampire and you repay me with siding with the very same people who abandoned you without a second thought,” Drusilla replied, as she pulled out a wooden stake of her own from out of the side of her dress, as her minions cautiously walked closer to them both, ready to help their master if Theo got the upper hand. “I don’t give a shit about them! I gave a shit about my parents, the ones who raised me, who loved me, and you took them from me!” Theo shouted at her furiously. “My whole life has been one big lie and you’re the one telling the twisted tale.” “I loved you as much as someone like me could ever love anybody…you were more my son than perhaps even Tobias, I had such high hopes for you and now you’re letting something as mortal as dead humans affect your emotions making you dumb, dumb, dumb,” Drusilla responded before going on to reveal. “My vision had two endings you know…one where you were her ending and another where she was yours, I guess we both know now what ending you have chosen.” Suddenly, the two vampires who had once considered themselves to be like mother and son were now ready to fight to the death against each other, both feeling equal as betrayed as the other, Theo having perfectly reasonable reasons to feel betrayed by her, and Drusilla in her mind only having reasons of her own.

Meanwhile, just outside of the abandoned insane asylum, where Drusilla and Theo were beginning to battle each other, Faith, Spike, and Ruby remained to hide behind the same trees where Theo had left the three of them as they awaited a signal from the vampire slayer/vampire hybrid to know when to come into the fight, not realizing that Drusilla already had the upper hand on them all. “I know he’s Buffy’s kid, Angel’s too, but at what point do we just bail on this and let the two vamps fight it out between themselves?” Spike asked the vampire slayer, and witch, who he was stood next to. “I mean this guy is just as evil as everything else we tend to kill so why don’t we leave it to Drusilla to kill him instead of one of us killing the kid?” “I am not going anywhere!” Ruby said defiantly, refusing to give up on her former best friend. “I have known Theo my whole life, you two only know the evil side to him but I’ve seen the best and worst of him and I was there when he lost everything…despite that there’s still good in him.” “Well, I do not bloody see it,” Spike replied to the brown-haired witch. “But I am not leaving you to die out here!” “I saw it…in the way he loved that vamp Toby or whatever, they loved each other as I’ve never seen anyone love each other, except maybe Buffy and Angel.” Faith confessed, once again standing up for the slayer of slayers, feeling now more than ever before that his redemption was drawing nearer. Suddenly, the sound of a window-smashing grabbed their attention, as they turned to see a vampire falling from the top floor window before hitting the ground with force, before getting back onto his feet and running back into the asylum via a side door, and although this was not the signal they agreed on, it was clear to Faith, Spike, and Ruby that Theo was in trouble and now was the time to act.

Theo’s fight against Drusilla was unfair in every way as each time he gained the upper hand against his former undead mentor, her vampire army would attack him, and before long he was down on the floor, bloody, bruised, and beaten, while being pinned down by several vampires as Drusilla stood above him, ready to plunge the wooden stake she held into his chest and end him once and for all. “You have been such a naughty boy Theodore,” Drusilla stated with a look of struggle in her eyes as she kneeled over Theo’s body, clearly finding great difficulty with the fact she was about to kill someone she once loved like a son. “All I ever wanted was to be your mother…but she gets her claws into everyone I love.” “Get it over with already!” Theo shouted at her, ready to admit his defeat, accept his fate, and let his miserable life come to an end. And Drusilla did just what she was told, as tears formed in her eyes, she plunged the stake into Theo’s death while letting out a frantic scream at the same time, before falling backward and beginning to sob manically for a moment, only to be left just as stunned as Theo himself as he did not turn to dust, but instead, pulled the stake out of his chest, and rose back onto his feet. Before Theo or Drusilla could even usher a single word to display their joined shock at the fact that Theo was somehow still alive, the surrounding vampires, very recently loyal to Drusilla, began to kneel for Theo, displaying the change in loyalty, now towards the slayer of slayers, as Drusilla quickly rose to her feet and made her way out of the exit located nearest to her, as a shocked Theo continued to look at the vampires kneeling before him, still in shock, as the stake he was holding, which was just plunged into his chest, fell to the ground. “You are our new master now!” One of the vampires declared as Theo continued to just stand there in shock. “A vampire that cannot die, the true immortal, the true heir to the undead kingdom!” Another declared, followed by cheers from fellow vampires, just as Faith, Spike, and Ruby rushed into the hallway from the exit farthest away from them all, only to stop in their tracks by the shocking sight in front of them. “Theo…” Ruby shouted towards her former friend, having no idea what all this meant, or what would follow, as the slayer of slayers was declared king among the vampires…

I randomly found this at a charity shop close to where I work. It's so weird how you can find these little surprises here and there. And the dvd is sealed! #FredBurkle #angeltheseries https://www.instagram.com/p/BrlVorcF6LJnh5LjfKqC2HG3O6fjWOhYsy30Oc0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8sq2uxzs2h6r

S3. Ep17. Enemies Season 3 has mastered the ability to create running themes that tie into all episodes of the season, regardless of whether an episode directly deals with the main plot. While ‘Doppelgangland’ focused mainly on Willow, it also managed to completely set up ‘Enemies’ with its discussion of the overlap between humans and vampires. The show is steadily creating a more complex view of vampires and demons in general, even giving us Skylar, a demon who lives like a human and who Buffy deems to be harmless enough not to kill. ‘Enemies’ writer Douglas Petrie explores this concept a little further by comparing Angel’s role in this episode to the TV show, ‘Wiseguy,’ which starred an undercover agent who infiltrated the mob. One of the issues that show raised was the extent to which playing such a role leads one to become the part. Yet as always, there is more than one thing going on, and the writers continue to use the different dynamics of each character and their relationships to inform us of what’s going on inside of Buffy. Since ‘Bad Girls,’ Buffy has wrestled with the idea that she and Faith are the same and seeing Angel with Faith makes her wonder if that darkness is what attracts Angel to her in the first place. Mark Fields says it best: “As I see it, the role she asked Angel to play called into question just what it was about Buffy that Angel found attractive. This would concern Buffy because she doesn’t want it to be her dark side. She wants to be loved for her good qualities, not her dangerous ones.” As with the concept of a good vampire or demon, Buffy’s world is becoming increasingly more complex as she continues to wrestle with the question: what exactly does separate her from Faith? #enemies #buffymeta #analysis #buffy #buffythevampireslayer #bangel #sarahmichellegellar #davidboreanaz #season3 #podcastersofinstagram #podcast #becomingbuffypodcast #angeltheseries #vampire #btvs https://www.instagram.com/p/CcQdzEGL5oB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Drusilla's Soul Ch. 29

JapaNews 24 2:30 PM 

"We interrupt this program with the news that there has been a very ominous red sky over Japan. The skies have been blackened by large quantities of smoke being seen over Tokyo." The anchorman's voice crackled through the speakers in an apparent attempt to make the news more exciting. "The cause of these dark clouds is unknown at present, but it is believed that they are an attack made against the nation. There has also been a strange event here in the city today. We have Lena Kamamoto here in Shibuya reporting on it." 

A woman in her 30s appeared on the screen, holding her hand out for the microphone as she spoke. "I am standing outside on the main street where Shibuya Station used to be. And the sky is truly red like blood, not just from the pollution. But it seems like it came from above the buildings," she gestured upward. 

"There is nothing visible in the sky to suggest that something like this is happening," continued the anchorwoman, who was now trying to sound more upbeat. "There are no signs of danger in the air. However, police have been called for in the area. All citizens should stay indoors while they investigate.''

In the next part, they filmed the man with a dog and told them about the situation.

"I was walking with my dog down the main streets when I heard Akemi barking," he said. "And then this thing happened, when I looked up the sky seemed darker than before. At first, I thought maybe it was fire pollution, but it wasn't. The red sky was enveloped by thick, red clouds as a huge red cloud had fallen right onto Shibuya. There is no sun. The sky was completely red, and all around me was chaos. The people were screaming and running around, calling for help, but they couldn't seem to get any. No one could see what was happening in the red sky. I saw people diving under their desks and behind trashcans to hide from whatever was happening."

*Back to Lena*

"It is terrifying to think that this might be an attack. The red sky is such a stark contrast from everything else we've seen today," Lena said into the mic. Her face was a bit pale but still managed to show some excitement. "We're going to keep our eyes peeled. If you see anything suspicious, please call us immediately, or if you feel threatened, please evacuate as fast as possible. If anyone can tell me what is going on in that red sky, please do. Thank you."

*At Blade and Whistler's vacation home*

Disappointed, Whistler shook his head slightly and turned off the TV. The television reporter's report hadn't been much better. It sounded like it had been fabricated to scare the people away from the place; they had only heard what she wanted them to hear because it was obvious that she had been ordered to make sure it sounded authentic. 

"Ugh, I can't believe they did that!" said Whistler angrily as he flopped back into the chair. He rubbed his hands across his face and leaned forward to rest his elbows on his knees and stare moodily at the floor. Blade got off the chair and walked to the window. He stared out silently, listening to the sounds outside. As much as he hated what was happening to the world, he still felt somewhat responsible for bringing it to this point, but he didn't know how to fix it. His plans had always relied heavily on the element of surprise. In this case, though, it didn't seem like that plan was going to work out. He needed to make sure that it wouldn't go too wrong again. This time, it would be different. It had to be. He needed to make sure of it. He hoped that somehow, somewhere, someway… he'd figure out how this whole mess started…

"What do you think was happening, Blade? Why does the sky look so odd?" asked Whistler suddenly. Blade shrugged his shoulders as he replied. "Who knows?" He walked over to Whistler, leaned against the wall opposite him, and crossed his arms. "But whatever it was, it probably wasn't good."

Whistler sighed, "Yeah, I don't think I'll ever get used to the fact that the sky is fucking red now. I mean, the vampires will be able to move around the broad daylight! Hell, they could even hunt during the day!" He exasperatedly threw his hands up in the air. "I want those bastards gone!" He fell silent after that, staring at his feet. 

Blade remained quiet as well, his eyes focused on Whistler. He knew exactly why Whistler had been so upset. He could feel it in the air. They both knew that this whole thing would be extremely dangerous if things went as planned. It was bad enough that they already had a target on their backs, but if they screwed this up… Well, there was no telling what the consequences would be. 

Blade took a deep breath, "So, we need to come up with a way to distract whoever it is. Or better yet, someone we can control…"He trailed off, thinking. After a few seconds of silence, his eyes narrowed slightly and he glanced over at Whistler. "How about you try to contact your friends?" he suggested.

"With whom?" asked Whistler.

"Tai and the other kids. Maybe if we can get everyone together, we can try to reason with Angelus." Blade looked away as he spoke. "Tai, especially, would be the best to start with, since he's the oldest, most experienced fighter we have, along with his friends." 

"What if they can say no?" asked Whistler.

"They won't." Blade frowned. "Besides, it won't hurt to try. Tai is a very brave kid, which makes him even harder to convince. And you know they have Digimon."

Whistler nodded his agreement. "Okay, I'm going to call Tai right now." 

*At Kamiya Residence*

"So, Izzy, anything's going on outside?" he asked through his smartphone as soon as he got Izzy and Whistler on the line. He sat down on the couch and grabbed the remote. "Any news about the red sky?"

"Yes, but I'm not entirely sure where the red sky comes from. I found some old files online saying that the red sky is formed apocalyptic. That's what the red cloud covering the sun is doing, I guess. Anyway, I don't know how it works." Izzy paused for a moment, clearly concerned. "But if you want to know more about the sky, I think that maybe I can find out who caused this."

"You mean, Angelus is the one who's behind this whole thing?" asked Whistler. Izzy gave a short nod, "Yes, definitely. I have a terrible feeling about what's he up to. I really wish I'd gotten more information from him before all this shit hit the fan."

"Whistler, are the vampires able to walk around in broad daylight?" asked Tai.

"Well, yeah, apparently so. You know how they can't stand sunlight, right? They must have created this shroud to shield themselves from the sun," explained Whistler. "Then they must have developed this special kind of technology. Something that allows them to use the power of the sun to protect themselves from light and heat. That's what I'm guessing anyways. So, if they're able to move through the daylight, then I doubt that it would make much difference whether they could see the sun."

"The Shroud... So that's why they built this machine. Because they knew that it would give them protection from sunlight," concluded Tai, sounding thoughtful. "We need to destroy this somehow."

"Yeah, I agree. How do we do that, though? What do we do to take care of that?" asked Whistler. He paused, considering the question carefully, "Do we want to expose the vampires in Japan?"

"No, we can't let that happen," replied Tai. "If the people learn that the vampires were hiding here all along, then the world will be in danger!"

"Then we better get moving, before they decide to do something terrible," said Whistler.

"Right, let's meet back here in an hour. I'll get Kari and the others together to come up with a plan. Until then, just be careful." said Tai.

"Got it." With that, the phone line went dead.

*Meanwhile*

Angelus waited at the lab patiently while the three vampires in lab coats worked on the computers, studying the data they gathered thus far. He listened intently as they discussed their results and theories about the red sky. He was interested; they weren't wrong in any way, at least, not when he considered the situation. The world was getting darker every second, with the red skies constantly shifting in color; sometimes bright red, like the sky itself, almost blinding. Everything in the entire world was changing.

Soon, the old scientist in the vamp face came out of the lab room. "All done," he told Angelus, carrying a potion filled with black liquid in each hand. "I made this to help you regain your health. It'll replenish your energy significantly if you drink it."

Angelus grabbed the knife from the table and cut his own hand to bleed, "This better be work."

He took the potion from the scientist's hands and drained it slowly, ignoring the burning sensation in his throat. When he drank all the potion, his hand stopped bleeding and healed rapidly. He clenched and unclenched his hand a couple of times to test its strength. Satisfied, he smiled evilly at the scientist. "This stuff is amazing. And I like the taste of black cherry."

"This mixture of blood and demon blood can regenerate broken bones and repair torn muscles," replied the scientist. Additionally, it helps heal wounds and burns."

"I bet it does," chuckled Angelus. "And I bet this stuff will really help me keep my strength up. Thanks for your hard work."

The scientist grinned widely. "My pleasure, Master Angelus. I will pack up your potions as soon as possible."
