Chapter Two: The One Where Everyone Screams
Dawn wondered into the graveyard, looking a little apprehensive. She never enjoyed being in the graveyard alone, but when there was a Grahhvuih running loose, she was even more nervous. The stake was practically quivering in her hand. The fact that she had not the faintest idea what a Grahhvuih looked like didn't help either. She didn't think it was too scary, because Xander was afraid of it, and Anya and Giles really didn't see that big a threat in it, but Dawn was very nervous about facing the unknown. "Boo." a voice said.
Dawn almost jumped a mile. Without turning around, "Who- who's there?" she said, squeakily. The unknown person/thing laughed. "Your worst nightmare." Finally, Dawn screamed.
Giles walked steadily ahead, towards the graveyard, while Anya and Xander trailed behind. "Xander." Anya sighed. "You had to just leave her there?! Why didn't you follow her?"
"I don't.... know......" Xander admitted, sheepishly. "I guess I thought we'd act- actually find the Grahhvuih. And I did not want to be alone with that thing with Dawnie."
"Yes, perfect sense." Giles replied, sarcastically. "You were afraid, so you left the teenager to take care of it herself. Very smart, Alexander Harris. I can definitely see that twelve years of education wasn't wasted on you." Anya was glaring at him, too.
Xander sighed. He didn't know how he would make it up to Giles, but he did have a way to make it up to Ahn. He looked at Anya and sighed. "Giles.....Ahn and I are engaged."
Giles looked surprised. But not nearly as shocked as Anya. For a few seconds, she was struck dumb, but after about a minute, Anya screamed. "Oh honey! You...I.... is this just because I was mad at you?"
Xander smiled. "If I said yes, would it ruin the moment?" ***
Buffy stared inside the musty crypt. There was Spike, head in hands. A closer look told her he was crying. Buffy's eyes widened. 'Spike is crying.' she had to tell herself over and over again to believe it. She walked over to him. As soon as she touched him, he sprang up.
He tried to play it cool, like nothing at all was happening, like he wasn't just crying, longing for her.... "God, love, what happened to knocking?"
"You know I've never knocked on that door." Buffy whispered.
Suddenly, without knowing what in God's name came over them, they were in the middle of a freakin' make out session. It seemed as if the whole world had melted away, as if nothing mattered except the two of them, there, locked in a tight embrace. Buffy didn't know what was going on, and what would happen, but right then it didn't matter. It didn't matter at all. Then, just as things were getting serious, they heard a scream. That scream made Buffy's heart stop, and Spike's too, if he'd had one, of course. It was Dawn. Buffy screamed, a muffled, half scream, and she gasped for breath leaning against Spike for support. "Dawn." she whispered.
"I understand, pet." he told her, barely audible. "Let's go." ****
Giles and the couple walked into the dark graveyard. Anya and Giles were no longer mad at Xander. He was just......Xander. And Xander could be a complete idiot. The problem at ahnd was to find Dawn and help her out. "I still don't know why you're afraid of the Grahhvuih, Xander." Anya sighed.
"They're huge! And so scary looking! How can you stand them, Ahn?!" sometimes Xander called Anya's bravery foolishness.
Anya rolled her eyes. "Right." sometimes Anya thought that if Xander was afraid of one more thing, he wouldn't be able to get up in the morning. Just then, Giles and Xander both screamed! "AGAD! THE GRAHHVUIH IS RIGHT BEHIND.........DAWWWWWWWWWN!!!"
Willow and Tara tore across the graveyard, and saw Anya, Giles, and Xander. "GILES!" Willow called. She turned around, looking for Tara. "Tara? Tara, baby?" Willow looked around some more. "Tara----AHHH!" She shrieked. Tara had snuck up behind her.
"BOO!" she laughed. Then Willow walloped her on the head. "OWWW!" she screamed, playfully. Then the two witches started chasing each other towards the other Scoobies. **
Buffy and Spike emerged from Spike's crypt and looked around for Dawn. Spike saw Willow and Tara running towards Giles, Anya, and that git, Xander. 'And,' Spike thought, following their gaze, 'they seemed to be looking at- "A GRAHHVUIH!!!!!" screamed Spike, and he dived behind Buffy. Buffy followed his look of sheer terror, thinking, "What the hell is a Gra- Gravu?" Then, suddenly, Buffy saw it. The Grahhvuih. And she gasped. "Ohmigod........."
