[Xander can be found inside the Battle Dome today. Observers might look in and see a dark, murky graveyard inside the simulator. Bare trees, tombs, crypts and stones provide a jagged landscape for the lone young man inside, who looks---afraid. He's got an axe on his back, a stake in each hand, and a big lump in his throat

[Checking out the Battle Dome--specifically any potential application it could have in managing the combat school--and Buffy comes across a...graveyard. Oh, yay. Her favourite kind of place to hang out.
And that's when she hears the call. Buffy hits the ground running.]

She's come to slay us wearing THAT?
[Xander slumps weakly against her, supported by an iron grip. He can speak, but just barely. He glares at the vampire holding him and whispers a warning.]
Don't touch her.

Vamp Cordy will suddenly find herself getting hit with quite a lot of holy water to the face. Giles is not pleased by this turn of events.
If that doesn't work, then out comes the stake.] Leave him alone.

I don't exactly love rocking the BURNED look, Mister Giles.

What...happened?

He's nosing at the running simulation when he spots something entirely too familiar. Something out of Sunnydale, something that could have been out of a horror movie - and Xander in the middle of trouble (though of course, he was used to being the one being bitten, beaten, knocked out and possessed. Ah, the buttmonkey status!).]
Xander! [Oh drat, where was the door? These things had to have a no-kill policy, right?!]

It doesn't occur to him until the door is already shut that this is a simulation, and all simulations can be ended.]
Xander! Unhand him you -- you vile shedemon!

Don't I know you? Weren't you......Tucker's brother?
[AND THEN SHE ATTACKS!]

That's when he notes one of the rooms is already in use. Curious, he goes to check it out, one eyebrow raised while he deciphers the readout. Someone else hunting vampires? Interesting...
And then he notes the other read outs. Whoever it is is having shit luck...really shit luck Derek notes when a warning light starts to go off.
Aw, crap.
And with this realization, he's quickly to the door of the room Xander is in, and through it, gun already aimed. Doesn't take him a split second to figure out who is who, and he aims a shot at Cordelia's head]
Hey, vampire.
[And he shoots, the bullet grazing Xander on the way by. The bullets are both silver and blessed, although he's not sure that would do any good. Other than, you know, pissing her off. Guess he'll find out ( ... )

Cordelia, meanwhile, is able to dodge the bullet--literally--and is now VERY pissed off at Derek. At least she's not paying attention to Xander anymore.]
Since when did 80s rock become cool again? [Vamp Cordelia crouches and begins to approach Derek, on the attack.]
Reply
Derek doesn't say that out loud of course; his attention is as much on Cordelia as hers is on him. He's also crouched, much like her, watching her as she approaches. This is all going to be in the timing, and he knows it.]
Apparently about the same time your sense of fashion took a nose dive, lady.
