Pairing: Giles/Jenny

Ms. Calendar left the school car-park in her white Volkswagen beetle. She'd been working late these past few days, getting the glitches out of the new software she was using in her computer science classes. She wanted to drop by the grocery shop and pick up some milk for her coffee, before heading home. As she drove down the nearly deserted streets of Sunnydale, darkness started to fall. Great, she thought. Her intention had been to make it home before dark. She was always edgy outside after dark in Sunnydale. It wasn't somewhere you really wanted to be. No, it certainly wasn't good for one's health. Until recently she'd been under the disillusion that after Buffy had closed the Hellmouth, there would be no-more walking dead around here. But as Xander had so poetically pointed out the other day, they were 'still the undead's favorite party town'.

Stopping at a red light, Jenny contemplated packing up as soon as she got home and fleeing. It would be the most sensible thing to do. She shook her head. No, she knew she couldn't do that. She had a job to do. Her people had entrusted their faith in her. She couldn't just leave. And of course, there was Rupert. Jenny found herself growing rather fond of him, despite his total abhorrence of computers. Over the summer, she had found herself thinking of him a lot.

The traffic lights changed and she was just about to move off, when a fist smashed through her passenger-side window. She screamed. The fist belonged to a vampire that was trying to climb into her car. Another jumped on the car bonnet. Jenny floored the accelerator. Trying to throw the vampires off the car, she threw the wheel sharply and then hit the brakes. She had succeeded in getting rid of the vampire on the bonnet.

That's when she felt the cold arm snake around her neck. The other vampire had managed to stay in the car, and was now hauling her out of the car, through the passenger side door. She struggled, but it was no use. The vampire was far too strong.

The last thing she remembered before blackness enveloped her, was a sharp pain on the side of her head, where it had connected hard with the doorframe.

The End
