Episode 8: It's the Great Pumpkin, Slayyyerrr!


Rose found herself in a pumpkin field, surround by well,... pumpkins. As she waked around the pumpkins turned into menacing jack-'o-lanterns. Vines came out and pulled Rose down. She started to panic and fight back and then she woke up.

Rose then went to school. It was  a rainy Halloween morning and she dressed up as Morbius, the living vampire. Scottie was dressed up as a cat and Oliver was dressed up as a belly dancer. Miss Winterborne had a less than inventive librarian costume. They had an uneventful day at school and prepared to have a fun Halloween.

The gang decided to go to a party at the Copper. On the way there, Rose saw a scarecrow with a pumpkin head and it reminded her of her dream, which Miss Winterborne. thought may be a prophetic dream. They arrived at the party and it was awesome. Everyone was there including Cherub, Nail, and Children of the Night. Cherub and Nail were dressed like an angel and devil respectively. Rose danced with Cherub while Nail watched from the side and flirted with women to make her jealous. Scottie danced with some girls and Oliver drank his tea. Then suddenly Cherub collapsed after yelling that something bad was coming.

Nail carried Cherub to an office in the back and helped wake him up. Cherub mumbled something about the Pumpkin King. Nail told Rose he had heard a legend about the Pumpkin King before. Something about scarecrows coming to life on a rainy Halloween. Rose called Miss Winterborne and got her to start researching. She asked for Oliver to go back to the dungeon to help her. Rose and Scottie went on patrol while Nail took care of Cherub after promising he wouldn't harm him.
Rainy Halloween Night

Rose and Scottie soon encounter a swarm of zombies and fight their way through. Oliver also ran into some zombies and thought that discretion was the better part of valor. After defeating the zombies, Rose remembered the dream about a pumpkin patch and they headed to the patch that was set up in town. As soon as they entered the patch they were trapped by a mystical barrier. Scottie immediately became terrified. They found themselves surrounded by jack-'o-lanterns. Scottie is pulled away by vines and Rose tried to save him but if she held too hard he would be ripped apart. She was about to go after him, but sensed something behind her. It was the scarecrow, the Pumpkin King.

Rose attacked the Pumpkin King but none of her attacks were phasing him. She managed to knock him off his feat and throw him a few times, but she wasn't able to damage him. She looked around. She saw a barn and not much else. She decided to go after Scottie. 

Meanwhile, Miss Winterborne told Oliver about the Pumpkin King. He could only be killed by trapping his spirit in his corporeal form and then destroying it. The Pumpkin King had faced a slayer hundreds of years ago. She defeated him the first Halloween, but he returned the next year and killed her. They knew they had to make sure he was truly destroyed or he would come back. 

Rose freed Scottie from the vines, just in time for the scarecrow to attack them. He slashed Rose's back with his claws. Oliver and Miss Winterborne get past the magic barrier and she is immediately terrified. They are also being followed by zombies. The watcher ran away screaming. Rose and Scottie hear her. Rose started to run to her. Scottie tried to throw one of the pumpkins at the Pumpkin King and it didn't work out well for him. The pumpkin halted in mid air and flew after Scottie. He smashed it with a punch.

The gang got together. They decided that Rose would hold off the zombies, Scottie would protect Miss Winterborne, and Oliver would confront the scarecrow. Oliver cast a spell to bind him into his corporeal form. Then he set the Pumpkin King on fire with another spell. This hurt him but the rain put the fire out. The Lord of Halloween slashed Oliver and knocked him out. Rose saw him take of with Oliver. Scottie figured out a plan and had everyone head to the barn.

Rose managed to rescue Oliver and wake him up. They then drew the scarecrow into the barn. Scottie took the gasoline from a tractor and spread it around the barn. Rose hacked at the villain with her axe which Miss Winterborne brought along with other weapons. Scottie tried to pin the Pumpkin King with the tractor, but he missed. Oliver cast a spell to make the scarecrow root into the ground holding him in place. Rose set the Pumpkin King on fire with a lighter and stick that were in Miss Winterborne's bag. Unfortunately, that set the whole barn on fire. Rose, Scottie, and Oliver made it out okay, but Miss Winterborne was trapped. Rose went back for into the flaming barn for her. The Slayer got her out, but not before she was badly burned. They rushed her to the hospital.

The doctors got Miss Winterborne stabilized but she was in a coma. Oliver cast a spell on her and healed much of her wounds but she didn't wake up. Rose called a number Miss Winterborne had given her and she told the British man on the phone what had happened. He told her that someone would be sent right away.

This plot was taken from a Buffy novel and the Great Pumpkin...

Episode 7: Slayer's Gotta Slay and a Scottie's Gotta Play


Scottie rushed to make it to his cage on time. It was the last night of the full moon. Unfortunately, he smelled tuna coming from the cafeteria, he went after it and became full on werecat. Rose chased him and after a brief confrontation the werecat ran to his cage to hide. Rose stayed to watch Scottie and Oliver decided to go to the Copper. There he encountered Nail. Oliver pulls a diva move, and told Nail that Rose is seeing Cherub as well. Nail left angrily, vowing to kill Cherub.

Oliver headed home after that, but he heard screams from the cemetery, so he took a detour. He found a girl who was stabbed to death. He was about to leave to report back to the Slayer when he heard a rustling behind him. He turned to find a spike head demon. Oliver decided he didn't want ruin his kimono so ran for it, Unfortunately, the demon hit him in the back with a bone spike blade. Oliver used magic to set his opponent on fire and made his escape.

Oliver told Rose what happened. She patched up his wound and went after the demon. She made short work of the demon with her axe and brought the body back to the dungeon for Miss Winterborne to identify in the morning. The demon turned out to be a Miquot. Winterborne explained that they were mercenary demons and where there was one, there were usually more. 

Rose and Oliver had disturbing news when they returned for school that day. Lily, her aunt, and Jason, his brother, were missing, or at least maybe they were. They went to class and promised to investigate after school. During the day, Scottie discovered that Brock was missing too. They met up in the dungeon after school to find Cherub with Miss Winterborne. He had a black eye. He told him that Nail attacked him and that the Manwitch (Oliver) set up the fight. Oliver said that he just told Nail that Rose was with Cherub, which Cherub liked. Rose was upset with Oliver and played off her connection with Nail as "pumping" him for information. She flirted with Cherub a bit. Assured that everything was all right, Cherub went home. The gang argued a bit over the Nail/Cherub situation and over Scottie's slutty nature. He was talking about how hot Cherub was, which caused Cherub to slap him on the ass as he left. Rose hoped Cherub was trying to be funny. 

Oliver said that he could locate Lily, but he would need a personal item. They all go to Rose's house in Miss Winterborne's car. Rose goes to get a personal item of Lily's from the bathroom where she found a Miquot using the facilities. He attacked Rose (with his pants still down). Miss Winterborne asked Rose to take him alive for questioning. but the Slayer got a bit overzealous with her axe. She said she got overwhelmed by her slayerness. A slayer's gotta slay. Scottie marveled at demon feces and they find an envelope in the demon's pants with a location for each of the missing friends and family. They were all being held in different locations and they only had thirty minutes to rescue them before the were killed. They realized that they had to split up. 

Miss Winterborne went with Scottie. They fought two vampires and defeated them. They found Brock in the basement. Unfortunately, Brock had been turned into a vamp. He knocked out Miss Winterborne and attacked Scottie. Scottie felt bad, but he staked Brock to save himself and Winterborne. 

Rose went to another abandoned house. She defeated two vamps and found her aunt tied up. There she was confronted by a blonde vampire woman with a katana. The woman said that Rose had killed her vampire sister and grandmother. (the vamp family) and she was after revenge. Rose fought the vampire and was defeated. She would have died if not for the intervention of Nail. 

Oliver went to his house to pick up some supplies. He went to where his brother was being held and used an enchantment to make everyone inside sleep. He found two vampires and a miquot asleep. He staked the vamps with a wooden athame, and got his brother out the house. Oliver then set the house on fire magically to deal with the demon. 

The gang met back up at the dungeon. They were worried that Rose hadn't shown up. They went to the scene of her battle and found nobody there. When they left they ran into Nail who told them that Rose and Lily were in the hospital and that the vampire woman had gotten away. 

Rose had been badly injured with the katana and was in surgery when the gang arrived. They decided to get Cherub to help them guard the slayer in the hospital, since the vampire woman was still around.  There were no more incidents, and soon Rose was stabilized. Later in the week, Rose was released from the hospital, thanks to her slayer healing.

Episode 6: All the HOT Dogs You Can Eat, or Just the Bun


The gang talk about the murders. There have been no murders since last week when Tuck was dusted. Miss Winterborne seems to think that he was the culprit. Oliver is not so sure. The three help Martin and Marissa when Bettie and Veronika were picking on them at lunch. Rose showed them the pictures they had taken when they were with Coach Andrews. This caused Bettie and Veronika to back off quickly.They visit Ms. Winterborne and nothing much is going supernatural wise. She advised them to have fun and do a patrol on their way home. Also, Oliver mentioned that his brother had a new boyfriend, Miguel. This made Scottie jealous.

Rose, Scottie, and Oliver decide to go to the Copper since there were no threats looming. They ordered some drinks and enjoyed the loud rock music. They see Bettie, Veronika, and the Goth girls there. Rose sensed that Nail was there and the two ended up making out in a dark corner. They rejoin the others where Oliver and Nail make snide comments back and forth.


After they leave the Copper, the three friends go on patrol in the cemetery. They hear screaming and find Martin and Marissa being chased by 3 vampires. There was a male vampire, Grandma Vamp, and Baby Vamp. The gang made short work of them and Rose staked Baby Vamp as she ran away. Rose then heard music behind the cemetery. She finds a circus much to her surprise. The boys catch up to her and they are swayed by the circus music to enter. Rose tries to prevent them, but they see Martin and Marissa enter. They had been acting funny and very full of themselves. They find themselves separated as they entered. Both Rose and Scottie find themselves in the Tunnel of Love. although at different times. They both see a red gem that make them think everyone is hot.


Oliver sees several of the gems in various spots around the circus but remains unaffected. He does run into the Ringmaster of the circus. He helps Oliver find Rose and Scottie and sends them on their way. He tells them to come back the next day and gives them tickets.They kind of forget that Martin and Marissa are still in the circus. Rose ends up going to see Cherub and they go out for coffee and a makeout session. Scottie goes over to Oliver's house and sleeps with Jason's boyfriend, Miguel. Oliver catches him and tells him to leave, which prompts Scottie to go outside where he finishes up with Miguel in the backyard.


Ms. Winterborne met up with Oliver (because he had told her what happened the night before) and they rallied the gang to go investigate the circus while it was open. They find a large crowd at the circus. The gang splits up and separate Rose and Scottie so they won't mack on each other. At this point they even thought Oliver and Ms. Winterborne were hot. They soon realize that the gems are what is making everyone act weird. Unfortunately, Ms. Winterborne gets affected by the gem in the Big Top. She becomes very angry at Rose and the two get separated. After Scottie eats a lot of hotdogs, the boys go to the Freak Show were Oliver finds out what is going on from a grieving man named Malthus. The stones infected people with the 7 Deadly Sins. He also warns that the Ringmaster is a demon that feasts on people's souls. The only way to defeat him is to destroy all the stones. Oliver and Scottie take the gem in the Freak Show and run for it. Rose decides to leave and go make out with Cherub again, but she sees the boys and finds out what is going on. They hatch a plan to get all the gems.

They get most of the gems from around the circus, (Scottie even seduces an overweight carny so Rose can get one of the gems). They head to the Big Top and find the Ringmaster and several evil clowns. He had Ms. Winterborne, Martin, and Marissa captive. He threatened to unleash a lion on them. Oliver devises a plan. He has Rose distract the Ringmaster. He asks Scottie to free the others, but Scottie plays with the lion instead and gets locked in the cage by the clowns. He frees himself quickly. The battle goes on and Oliver finally gets the last gem with his telekinesis. Rose keeps the ringmaster off of him while he casts a spell to destroy the gems. This causes everyone to return to normal and kills the Ringmaster and the clowns. Everything starts glowing brightly and the gang runs for it. Rose had to carry both Scottie and Oliver because they were unconscious. Scottie had been knocked out in battle and Oliver passed out after his spell. Ms. Winterborne takes everyone home. Jason tells Scottie to stay away from his brother because he found out what happened between Scottie and Miguel.

Rose and Cherub get to know each other better after she runs into him on her way home. Cherub tells Rose that his mother was part demon and that he has inherited her visions. Cherub and Rose make plans to meet at the Copper the next night. After Cherub leaves, Rose spots a vampire in a uniform that looks similar to a nazi. The Slayer and the vampire fight. Once the vampire realizes the girl is stronger than he was expecting, he takes off.

Tuck, the vampire, discovers a body with a slashed throat. He finds out after investigating that the man was Mr. Rogers, who was known to be a child molester around town. He looks around town for some evil doers. He goes to the Hog, a local biker bar where he steals some biker clothes and listens for information.

The next day at school, Rose, Scrapper, and Oliver find out about the murder. Miss Winterborne doesn't know if it is supernatural or not, but she felt the gang should look into it. Rose told her about the strange vampire and the watcher says she will investigate it. Oliver had run into the Goths at lunch, but he was not into their apology. He refuses their attempts to become friends again.

That night Rose meets Cherub at the Copper. Oliver takes his sweet time getting ready. Scrapper stakes out a park thinking either a murderer or a gay guy would be there. He also very conspicuously asked a cop some questions about the murder. The guys end up joining Cherub and Rose at the club. Oliver and Scrapper of course give them a hard time. Scrapper was particularly interested if his penis was demonic.

Rose soon feels the presence of a vampire and soon realizes that Nail is watching them. Scrapper smells his cologne and remembers it from the cemetery when they fought Morgara. He goes straight to Nail and ends up talking about demon penises. Nail goes up to the table and it is obvious something is going on between Nail and Rose. Scottie and Oliver watch the fireworks, while making snide comments. Nail and Cherub end up coming to blows after Nail gleefully antagonizes his rival. Rose separates them and Cherub leaves. Oliver wonders why the slayer is picking the guy who tried to kill them over the guy who has routinely helped them. Rose ends up sneaking out after she is embarrassed.

After a fruitless investigation at the Hog, Tuck goes to the Copper where he sees the fight between the two suitors. He sees the slayer and decides to duck out. He finds another body and checks the body. The victim this time is Mr. Higgins. Tuck goes to investigate at the Higgins home. He finds Higgins' wife there. He talks to her and realizes that she has been abused by her husband. Tuck decides to follow Cherub, but soon runs into Nail and some of his minions. Tuck fights his way past them barely after being hurt and flees into the cemetery, where he promptly runs into the Slayer. Cherub, having seen the fight between the vampires, tries to stop Rose. But it was too late. Rose dusted the vampire. As he turned to dust he said, "The town is in danger." Afterwards, Rose and Cherub patrol together.

The next day, Rose finds out from Oliver there was another murder. She also reports to Miss Winterborne that she dusted Tuck. Miss Winterborne was bit put off that he was already dusted after she spent all night researching. Rose got upset and hung up on her. Miss Winterborne goes to Rose and takes her out for ice cream. She talks to the slayer about her problems. They wonder if Tuck was the murderer.

Episode 4: Shut the F*%k Up, Scottie!


The gang start their day at school. Scottie is in detention. Rose is talking to Miss Winterborne. Oliver finds himself talking to the new goth girls, Fiona, Tori, and Nova. They hit it off and make plans to meet at the Copper. Rose finds a note in her locker to meet a mysterious someone at the cemetery.

Everyone meets up at the Copper. The goth girls hadn't arrived yet and Scottie, Rose, and Oliver got caught up. Rose left for the cemetery. Soon, the girls arrived. Oliver and Scottie had a good time getting to know the goths. Nova flirted with Guido and got everyone alcoholic drinks for the rest of the night. Oliver chatted with Fiona while Scottie danced with the other two girls. They called it a night and  Scottie ran into Brock. Brock hit on Scottie and they went home together. Scottie was pleasantly surprised.

Rose went to the cemetery and followed a trail of rose petals to a crypt. There she found wine and two glasses. Nail came out of the shadows and surprisingly just wanted to talk. By the end of the evening sparks were flying.



Rose stopped at another cemetery on her way home and saved a girl from three vampires which she promptly dusted, including a laughing vampire named Giggles. Rose took the girl home reluctantly. Rose then went home and got some sleep.

The next morning, the gang all met up in the dungeon. Rose did not tell them about her rendezvous with Nail. Scrapper did tell them about his night with Brock. They all thought it was odd that Brock changed sexuality all of as sudden, but they just chalked it up to teenage hormones. They met the goths at the Copper, but Scrapper ended up hooking up with Brock.  After hours of vigorous lovemaking, Brock seemed confused and told Scottie to go away. He got violent, and Scrapper left.

While at the Copper, Oliver introduced Rose to Fiona, Tori, and Nova. The girls provided drinks again. Children of the Night started playing on the stage and Mal winked at Rose. Rose got a note from Nail asking her to meet him at the cemetery.

After Rose left, Fiona revealed that the three girls were witches and they needed Oliver's help to cast a spell. Oliver went home with them and unwittingly helped them summon Morgara, the demon-witch. Morgara promptly stole all of Oliver's magic from him. Oliver runs out desperate to escape.



Oliver almost catches Rose with Nail, but Rose covers up the makeout fest. Oliver tells her what happened. They call Miss Winterborne and she tells them to find Scrapper and get to the dungeon. Scrapper is in the park drinking by himself, sad over what happened between him and Brock. Cherub finds him and tells him that his friends are in great danger and where to find them. Scottie finds them at his house talking to his drunk mother. 

They met with Miss Winterborne and she asked what happened. Scottie, of course, made it all about him and told them about what happened with Brock. Miss Winterborne told him to "shut the f*%k up, Scottie", and Oliver finally got to tell his tale. The Watcher told them about Morgara and how to get his powers back. She said that they had to kill her and Oliver had to eat her eye to get her powers back. 

They go to Fiona's only to find no evidence of Morgara and the goths have all their powers drained and memories wiped. Realizing that they can't help, they call Miss Winterborne. When Oliver talks to her she sounds like she has been mind wiped as well. They rush back to the Dungeon and Miss Winterborne tries to shoot them with a gun.The gang takes her out and ties her up. They eventually figure out through some research that Morgara is in the cemetery where Rose had been meeting Nail. 

The gang encounter some zombies in the graveyard, and they rushed past them. Scottie smells Nails cologne and keeps bringing it up to which Rose replies,"Shut the f*%k up, Scottie." They engage Morgara  who is standing on top of the building. She throws Rose telekinetically and she lands in the crypt. Nail helps her up and offers to help. 

Rose and the others keep Morgara distracted until Nail can knock her off the roof behind the scenes so he doesn't out his involvement. The gang attack her and Rose finishes her off with her axe, affectionately named Ms. Marvel. Oliver pokes one of the eyes out and eats it, returning his magic. 

Scottie checks on Brock, who remembers nothing. He had been under the spell of the witches. Oliver goes home to rest. Rose goes and frees Miss Winterborne who is back to normal. She feels bad that Oliver actually ate the eye, because she was just joking. Killing Morgara was sufficient to return the powers. When she returned home, Rose ran into Cherub.

Episode 3: He's Having A Baby


Scrapper awakes in the book cage and has a hard time believing the gang when they try to explain that he is a werecat. It didn't help that Oliver explained it as vague as possible. Miss Winterborne explains about the moon cycle and how he will have to be locked up on those nights. He leaves to go class and Winterborne tells Rose to make sure he is back by dark.

Rose and Oliver find Bettie and Veronika still acting very Stepford wives in gym. In study hall, Coach Andrew flirts with both Rose and Scrapper. The rest of the school day was uneventful, except that Scapper hooked up with the coach and started acting all Stepford as well. Rose discovered this when she followed him after school to make sure that he got back to the cage before dark.While Rose was walking around her aunt Lily told her that she had a date with the coach.  Rose goes back to the Dungeon (as they have started referring to the training room) to tell Miss Winterborne and Oliver what was going on.

Miss Winterborne sends Rose right back out to retrieve Scrapper, because it was going to be nightfall soon. Rose goes to Veronika's house, which is where Scrapper went. She throws him over her shoulder and takes him back to school. Bettie and Veronika follow her. Rose gets him into the cage right before he changes. He acts very docile for a werecat. Rose realizes she must go save her aunt. She knows that they are at the coach's house. Miss Winterborne goes upstairs to get the address but doesn't come back.

Rose finds her watcher unconscious when she looks for her. She is then attacked by Bettie and Veronika who are swinging golf clubs at her. Rose throws a desk at the pair and knocks them out. Rose handcuffs them to a door (she got the handcuffs from Miss Winterborne to use on Scrapper early but never used them). She takes Miss Winterborne downstairs and tells Oliver what happened. She finds the coach's address scribbled on a piece of paper and goes after her aunt.

When Rose gets to the coach's house, she kicks the door in. She's too late. The coach has Lily in his power as well. Rose and the coach talk for a bit, and he tells Lily to go with Rose. Rose returns with Lily to the Dungeon and ties her up. They work through the night to research the problem, but Miss Winterborne doesn't get very far because of her head injuries.

The next morning, Scrapper reverts back to his human form and everyone notices that he has developed a baby bump. They check the others and they all have baby bumps too. Miss Winterborne realizes that they are dealing with the Multiplier, who is a breeder demon. He sucks the souls of his victims out and impregnates them with his own essence. All of the demon babies would be a part of the Multiplier.

Oliver discovers a spell that will restore the souls of the victims so that it would be safe to slay the demon. Unfortunately, before he can cast the spell, the demon shows up. The Multiplier frees Bettie and Veronika and they go after the gang. The Slayer tries to distract them with banter, but that doesn't work very well. Rose combats the demon, who assumes his horny purple form, while Oliver deals with Bettie, Veronika, and Lily. After Rose kicks the demon in the groin, Bettie and Veronika go to help their baby daddy. This leaves Oliver with just Lily who is choking him with her bonds. Oliver breaks free and manages to cast the spell to return Scrapper's soul. As soon as he gets his soul back his baby bump disappears. He puts Lily in the cage and goes to fight the demon, naked. Rose takes on Bettie and Veronika. Oliver casts the spell that frees the others and Rose slays the Multiplier with an axe.


The three women are all freaked out and Oliver cast a spell to put them to sleep. They return them to their homes. Rose puts Bettie and Veronika in the same bed and takes pictures. Rose also has to get rid of the coach's body who reverted to his human form. She dumps him in the swamp.

The next day, the three women act like they don't remember anything. Scrapper has got in school suspension and cannot play football for a week. His drunk mother also grounds him (He missed a bunch of school and hasn't been home in four nights). Everything seems to be settling back to normal. Oliver notices a trio of goth girls who seem to be new to the school.

Episode 2: I Think I Saw a Putty Tat






Rose took Oliver to the hospital and then went to tell Miss Winterborne what happened, They go back to the Copper, fully loaded with weapons. Miss Winterborne realizes it would be best if she waited outside. Rose questioned the bartender, Guido, and found out that Children of the Night plays the bar every Wednesday. She searches the managers office and finds nothing except for nudie pics.

Meanwhile, Scrapper woke up in some kind of basement room and found himself hanging upside down in chains... in his boxers. The room was filled with vampires and they go get Mal, the lead singer of Children of the Night, when they noticed that Scrapper was awake. Mal entered the room, followed by her brother, Nail. Mal questions Scrapper about the Slayer. He claimed that he is the Slayer. Mal laughed at him and informed Scrapper that only women can be a slayer. Scrapper found that to be sexist bullshit. Nail punched him in the stomach and said that he was a waste of time. They leave him with the other vamps guarding him.





Rose and Miss Winterborne visit Oliver in the hospital.Oliver had awakened and started to heal himself. It was almost morning so the Watcher advised everyone to get some rest. The Slayer went home and the Manwitch decided to put his ensemble together.

The next morning, they go to school. Nothing eventful happened until homeroom when Coach Andrew called Oliver a fag. The fledgling witch tried to set a trash can on fire with his magic, but missed and set a table on fire instead. The coach evacuated the room. After the fire was extinguished, everyone came back inside for lunch. Oliver decided to go to Miss Winterborne to try a spell. Rose noticed that Bettie and Veronika were acting strange, like Stepford Strange. She followed them a bit and got creeped out when they smiled at her.

Oliver tried to scry for Scrapper using his Hulk stake, that they had found at the Copper. The spell didn't work as intended and went flying into the wall. Rose investigated the boiler room on the other side in case the spell worked and found nothing but some student smoking. Everyone then went home to rest and try to figure out another way to find their friend, er... acquaintance.

Oliver decided to cast the scrying spell again. This time, he was more effective. He called the Slayer and they had the Watcher meet them on 34th street. There was just businesses around and did not know where to look. Then Rose spotted Cherub. After a brief conversation, Cherub told Rose that the recording studio behind him was the place she was looking for. They entered the building where they encounter a very pleasant receptionist.The blonde woman wearing a scarf , thought they were vampires after Rose threw her desk to prevent her from sounding an alarm. She even removed her scarf to offer them a bit. She had multiple bite marks on her neck. She then remembered the sun was up and started screaming. Rose knocked her out.


They worked their way through the recording studio and found a locked door. Rose broke the door open and it led to a winding stairway going down. After descending farther than expected, they found a hall with  a door on each end of it. They picked the left door and Rose kicked it in. It opened to a very posh apartment where the gang found Mal and Nail. Rose and Miss Winterborne engage in combat with them. Oliver staid back and guarded their rear. Rose managed to severely wound Mal and Nail offered them a deal. He told them to go get their friend in the other room and leave. Rose stayed with Nail while Miss Winterborne and Oliver check out the other room. They find Scrapper, but also the four other vampires. The Watcher called for Rose and the Slayer joined them to fight the vamps, leaving Nail and Mal to escape. They slay all four vampires and free Scrapper. Scrapper is upset because on of the vamps was wearing his letter jacket when he was dusted.

They decide not to go after the sibling vampires and leave. As they are about to go outside, they notice the sun go down. Scrapper doubled over in pain. He transformed before them into a werecat. Rose and Oliver and managed to subdue him with a combination of slayer strength and telekinesis. They take him back to their training room and look him in the book cage. Oliver cast a spell to make the cage unbreakable. The Watcher sends Rose home to rest. On the way home, she encountered Cherub, who walked her home at Rose's request. They chatted a little and Cherub kissed her hand when he left.


The next morning, Scrapper woke up in his makeshift cage. He was freaked out to say the least. Oliver and Miss Winterborne, after a few cracks, begin to tell him what happened.
