Graveyard: Evening Patrol

It's another Friday night and Mel is once again on patrol. In the gravyard.

Where there are no vamps.

Excercise in futility? Perhaps. But a slayer's gotta do what a slayer's gotta do.

Leo had wandered off gone for a walk, and his course took him through the cemetery. His gait was maybe a bit unsteady due to his being easily distracted from looking where he was going.

Mel looked up hopefully at the figure stumbling through the night.

Then she saw it wasn't a vampire and sighed.

She killed the undead. Not the Grateful Dead.

Leo did a double take when he saw the figure in the cemetery. "Woah! I knew they were real man!"

"Is this your place man?" Leo asked, looking at the nearest grave to the figure. Which upon closer inspection appeared to be a really groovy lookin' chick. The kind Hyde would hang out with.

"Yeah. I live in a graveyard," Mel said rolling her eyes.

[identity profile] mr-hippie.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
Leo snickered. Heh, live. "Far out man, so like, how long you been here?" Maybe there was a mystery in this that Aiden could solve! He'd have to go tell her as soon as he could.

"That was sarcasm," Mel said with a groan. "I don't live here."

[identity profile] mr-hippie.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh I know man." Leo said understandingly. He was trying to remember the stories he'd heard as a kid. It wasn't going very well.

"So, uh, how'd you get here?"

Dawn knew better than to try and sneak up on a slayer, really she did, but that didn't stop her from turning off her flashlight and running right towards Mel, hands extended, and doing her best bad vampire impression.

"Graaaaarr!"

[identity profile] cantjossme.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Mel sat on the perch of her gravestone and looked at Dawn as if she were nuts.

"What's that supposed to be?"

[identity profile] lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
Dawn stopped mid-growl and pouted, kicking at the grass as she walked towards Mel. "Bad vampire movie vampire. Still dead out here?"

[identity profile] cantjossme.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Pretty much," Mel sighed. "There's no action in this town. And there's only so much chocolate cookie dough a girl can eat."

[identity profile] lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
"See, you would think that," Dawn said, climbing up onto the tombstone. "But really, if you alternate it with brownie dough..."

"I like the way you think Summers," Mel replied. "So what brings you to a graveyard on a Friday night?"

[identity profile] lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:09 am (UTC)(link)
"I was bored," Dawn said with a shrug. "How's the life of an ex-con treating you?"

[identity profile] cantjossme.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
"Well Xander somehow pulled this stipend thing for me so I don't have to grab anymore," Mel said with a shrug. "Which... yeah. I know. Stealing was a stupid thing to do but it's how I made a living back home. Only way I really could."

[identity profile] lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
"Yep, totally stupid," Dawn agreed, "but you're not the only one. At least you had a good reason for doing it."

[identity profile] cantjossme.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah well I guess I'm just a slayer now. And a student," Mel said stretching a little. "And that was pretty cool of Harris to bail me out. Thanks for helping with that."

[identity profile] lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
"No problem," Dawn grinned. "I just got to pick up my voicemail and make Xander what-the-frell at me. That's always fun."

[identity profile] cantjossme.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. He seems to be pretty cool," Mel said quietly. "It's kind of weird to be working with people who want to train me for training sake. And... you know not hurt people I care about."

[identity profile] lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
"Seriously, he's the best," Dawn said, hopping off the tombstone before she froze there, "and we're training you for your sake, and for the sake of the people you save...and I wouldn't count out the getting hurt thing. We're not perfect. Perfect's not even in the same county."

[identity profile] cantjossme.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
"Well at least he won't throw steel girders at me," Mel said adjusting her perch.

Then thinking about it for a second.

"No. Seriously he's not strong enough to do that is he?"

[identity profile] lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com 2007-02-10 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
"No, he's human, without the special slayer additives," Dawn said, then looked at Mel suspiciously. "Why? What has he been telling you?"
