Case Work
Who: Gunn and Fred
Where: Starting at the Hyperion, but then going out on a case
When: During the Angel/Cordy thread
What: They finally get a call for a case, possibly even paying!
Status: Incomplete
Things had been quite at the Hyperion the last few days. After Connor was tossed out, and Angel was back, and then they got Lorne and Cordy back as well. So, for a while, it was crazy, but now it was pretty much like having everyone back (with the still obvious and Wes-sized hole, but no one wanted to bring that up). It still felt a lot more normal around the Hyperion. As normal as this place ever got, anyway.
So, what to do now? Right now, Gunn was flipping through a comic book while sitting around, waiting for the phone to ring. They did that a lot, at least during the day. Sure, at night, they can always go out on a patrol or go where they knew vampires hung around and go dust a few, but, during the day, they were pretty much at the mercy of the phone, or possibly even a customer coming inside and asking about them. Both were pretty damn rare, though.
Which was why Gunn jumped a little when he heard the phone ring. Recovering quickly (and being very glad that no one was around to see it), he picked up the phone saying the required phrase, only to get a woman screaming bloody murder into his ears about a monster having taken up residence in her attic. No, she didn't know what kind of monster. She apprently wasn't aware that there were types. All she knew what that she had had to pull her poodle out of its claws to keep it from eating her dog.
Gunn had a soft spot for animals, having grown up keeping more than one dog or cat around wherever he was squatting because people were less likely to mess with you if you kept a big dog, and cats liked to keep mice away by eating them. So, even though it was a fluffy poodle who probably had one of those idiotic haircuts, Gunn was ready to go to town on any monster who tried to eat a dog.
Saying that he'd be right over and writing down the address, he hung up the phone and went to look for Fred. Angel was probably doing the soothing thing to Cordy, plus, you know, daylight outside, so it was pretty much only Fred who could come with him.
