Unbearable misfortunes

Who:???, Katie, OT Angel
Where: Streets of Sunnydale, near Breaker's Woods
When: Tuesday night, after work

Katie hummed as she drove, the sounds of Radio Sunnydale echoing through her car. It had been another long evening at the Sunset Club -- closing at 2 AM meant very late hours for her, and sometimes very little sleep. Still, there were times when she preferred staying out all night - at least it gave her the illusion of having as busy a social calendar as her mother. And she had a girlfriend - that was something, right?

Unknown to her, something was watching her car come up the road. It was very late, and the shaggy monstrosity was hungry ... and it knew from past experience that these rolling metal cans always contained delightfully tasty meals. It waited, predatory instincts at the ready, and when the metal object was just about to pass, leaped from its perch, slamming into the passenger's side of the car. The car lurched to the side from the impact, and Katie slammed on the brakes, driver's license training kicking in. "What the--?"

The beast, not interested in paying proper respect to accident laws, started tearing the passenger's side door open. Mmmm... dinner.

angel, plot: not a bear, katie
