Authors Comments: This is
crazy. I wanted an uncomplicated fic, yet I seem to keep digging myself into
this hole. So much for a SDV sequel of under ten parts. Craaaaaazy!
Title: Scratching Post own
'Bloodflame', not me. They rock!
Discord's POV
Slayers Do Christmas XXVII - You
Say That I'm Psychotic, But That's You
'Don't be all... obvious, ok, Elle? No tricks,
please. I want to tell Faith myself.'
She holds her hands up in submission, and the
irony's not lost on me.
I open Faith's apartment door, and we walk
in.
'Faith?'
Silence.
Probably better this way, anyhow, less to explain.
I see my case, lying against the wall.
The small seal on the side isn't broken, so
I'm still safe.
Listen to me, like I need the seal to tell
me Faith doesn't know.
I'd be peeling her off my neck if she'd found
out!
'Dizzy, where are the little Slayers? I wanted
to see Summers up close and personal.'
'Elle don't prod her, or lift her up and do
that shaking thing, you'll break her neck. Hang on, got a note from Faith,
shit her handwritings scrawly. They've gone to the ships to get some Prozac.
Fuck, why's she on Prozac?'
Elle walks over, takes the note from my hands,
looks at it, then hands it back.
'They've gone to the shops to get presents.
She has handwriting like yours, Dizzy.'
Hey!
My hand writing's not that bad you... wonderful
boss, you.
'Almost, Dizzy, almost got you to
curse me. I'll have to work harder next time. Come on, take me Christmas shopping
then. Let's enjoy the holiday!'
She starts chuckling to herself.
Man, she has one fucked up sense of humour.
I know, you heard that!
Jeez.
Lucy's POV
'Tis the season to eat babies, tra-la-la-la-la
la-la-la-la! Am I the only one here getting into the spirit of the holidays?
Bee, why haven't Marcy and... what's that other ones name? Never mind, why
aren't they back yet?'
I stare at her and she starts shifting around.
What am I doing now?
Oh, not blinking again, must be off putting.
Blink Luce, blink!
I am such a thoughtful boss, I am.
I should get a plaque for my office, a nice
big one, made of bones or something bad.
'Did I say that outloud, Bee? Am I going mad,
don't answer that. Where are they? You told me Dis had been stopped, Bee,
what happened?'
'Discord killed them.'
'Arrgghh! She's really. Beginning.
To get on. My nerves! What is it with her and Elle anyway? You'd think we'd
get a break, but no, we have to work twice as hard to do what we need to.
Has she got to Dawn yet? You tell me yes, and I'm going to break something
very big, and very heavy, over your head. Well?'
'No, Dawn's still ok. Um, we had reports that,
um, Elle is. With her.'
'With her? With her? As in, with her
in spirit, tell you mean with her in spirit, Bee.'
'Sorry, no, with her in person.'
Now this is a new development.
Elle's come out to play?
Well, maybe Lucy will have to get her best
dress out and go pay them all a visit.
Discord's POV
'Look, Christ on a cross. It makes me laugh
everytime I see that, Dizzy. These people are crazy! On a cross?
As if that really happened. Evolution, people?!'
'Elle, the folder didn't tell me when it's
all going to kick off. How long have I got?'
'It's happening tonight, on the day that they
planned the saviour's death. Lucy and her timing, huh, you have to laugh,
or kill people, whatever comes first.'
I close my eyes at the thought.
Tonight.
Shit, I need to get my ass in gear over this
one then.
And then it hits me.
I have to tell Faith, like, now!
Great, nothing gets you in the spirit
for Christmas more than hearing that your cuz is going to bringing death and
destruction to all who surround you.
