After Paige orbed us here I wondered where exactly we'd start to look. Angelina's vision didn't tell us much but to listen for any screams and follow accordantly. I crossed my arms as I looked around this place, It smelled funny like she said. Also the place was very damp and the 'fisherman's market' wasn't all that it was cracked up to be. It was

I looked all around me, the screams were coming from every direction. My grip on the stake became a little tighter than before. My eyes widen as the girl gets louder, I turned around to the both of them.
"Can anyone of you make out where she's coming from?"
We were sort of in a hurry and when they didn't say anything right away I started to panic. So much for a long span of searching for clues. I crossed my arms then searched around the place once more.
"Do any of you see anything that might lead us to her? I can't see any blood so she might still have some time.."
Of course we really didn't but there was no time to rush these thing. It's always good to start out calm then work your aggression toward the evil thing of the week.

I wasn't totally sure though since the screaming seemed to bounce off everything. It was frustrating, but hopefully I was right.
"Come on, let's go see if I'm right."

"I think we should really split up this time, cause I'm thinkin' it's coming from over there." I point eastward. Of course, my bloody hearin' was shot because of the damn acoustics of this place.
Besides, we'd cover more ground if we split up now. No, we had to bicker and follow Buffy at first. I swear, this pissin' contest is going to get us killed, if not on Buffy's "To Stake" list.
Fine. I go this way, you go that way and Buffy can get the rest. Let's go before she's dead.
Angel headed off in his direction and I started in mine, hopefully one of us would find this damsel in distress in time...

As I watched both of them head out into the night. I started to job just a little till the north end quickly became a dead end. It was one big wall leading up to the fifth floor of a building beside it. I let out grunt as I heard another scream. I was lost not knowing where to go, this hadn't happened very much and I was certain it was coming from behind me.
"Hello-"
I shouted as I turned around, and yet still nothing. The screaming however was getting louder than before. I walked slowly as I started to focus on my surrounding. There was many things I could do but trying to find someone out of hay stack was harder than it looked. I closed my eyes for a moment gathering up the alleyway.
I could lightly hear footsteps from above, they weren't much and I expected it to be either Spike or Angel. I didn't really know what to think, from what Julie said it was big and if that was the case I'd hear ponding footsteps. I felt a brush in the wind as I opened my eyes to see a slimy fist come my ways. I dodged it quickly before kicking it right in the gut.
"that the best you can do?"
I threw my hand out for a punch but was quickly blocked. The green oozy thing opened its mouth exposing some type of liquid. I tried to punch at it once more but I thrown back by some sort of goo. He sprayed it on my face and as I laid on the ground I tried to wipe it off. I had gotten most of it before I started to feel a little funny. I felt a jerk in my stomach but my attention quickly turned back to the demon as he charged after me. With full force I kicked him in the chest once more this time sending him into a brick wall.

I ran as fast as I could, nearly running into Spike who also had started heading towards Buffy. Thank GOD for vampire reflexes.
I shook my head and kept running, just in time to see Spike jump at something by a wall, and what was that I smelled? No matter, and as much as I wanted to make him look bad in front of Buffy, Spike would have to fight while I looked for the girl. Had to find her and make sure she's okay...

I nearly ran into the bloody idiot as we apparently heard the noise at the same time. I left him in the dust as I ran towards a greenish looking thing and jumped at it as it tried to get up, knocking it back again and getting slime all over me, bloody HELL that's gross!
I kept fighting, trying to help Buffy out, and was kind of surprised Angel didn't come over here and try to show off or make me look bad. I guess he must be looking for the girl, makin' sure she's alright.
Fine with me, his loss in front of Buffy...

"Spike don't let him spray you.."
I shouted out as only the green goo was probably the only reason I was feeling like this. I had no idea what it was but before I could do anything we needed this demon down for the count. As I let the ground hold my head I threw my leg out there enough to trip 'Big Green' enough for Spike to have at him.
I have never seen anything like this demon before and all I could guess is that he was either new or very old. I stared at him trying to find his weak spot as well as Spike from what I could tell. My hands had an eery tingling to them as I tried to move to get a better look at the thing. He was big full of goo but one thing that did stand out however was the crystals on the side of his neck. It was either for decoration or it was the thing keeping it going. I quickly looked up at Spike,
"His weak spot is his neck.."
I shouted hoping to bring him to some sort of conclusion. He never was the brightest when it comes to strategy but I was one to always point him in the right direction. The next thing on the top of my list was to stand up. I reached over at some grates and attempted to prop myself up. I used everything I had to actually get myself to sit up. My arms felt so heavy, heavier than I've ever probably lifted up. I wondered what on earth was in his goo to make me feel this way.

I moved, getting him further from Buffy. Then I struck for his neck with a kick, and hit him, or it, whatever the hell it was. But it wasn't hard enough, and the goo he was trailing on the floor made me slip.
It stumbled backwards with a yell, then sprayed in my direction. But I moved quickly, thank GOD for vampire reflexes, and went at him again.
This time I solidly connected. I felt and heard something crack, and it fell down with a scream.
"Take that! Not so good without your bloody necklace intact, are ya?"

"Don't worry, you're going to be okay. I'm going to help you." I told her. She didn't look so good. Nor did she answer me, she just continued to stare at me, her eyes wanting to believe me.
I looked up to see Spike still fighting the monster, but getting a good shot at it. "You got it, Spike? I found the girl, she's paralyzed." I then saw Buffy still struggling to get up, it must have hit her too.
"Buffy!" I looked at the girl, and said, "I'll be right back, don't worry."
I then went over to help Buffy up and get her out of the way before she was hit by this monster with the paralyzing goo.
