TEASER

FADE IN-

EXT. PARK – LOS ANGELES – NIGHTFALL

SPOTLIGHT ON SPIKE and DREW standing under a great oak tree. The vampire is dressed in black leather pants and a black shirt. And the Watcher is wearing jeans and a black shirt.

DREW: “How do you think they’re doing?”

ZOOMING OUT to reveal three young girls fighting against two vampires. The first girl [a petite redhead in a black outfit] dodges a blow and tackles one of the vampires. The second one [a tall slender raven haired in jeans and a blue shirt] hold the other in a tight grip while the third girl [a curvy brunette in jeans and grey blouse] pummels on his face.

RAVEN HAIRED GIRL: “Stake him, Maya!”

Maya: “Then hold him still, Milla!”

ANGLE on the two of them as MILLA takes a stronger hold on the struggling demon and MAYA whips out a take – which she drives into the vampire’s heart. As the dust settles they look over at their sister slayer who’s still rolling around on the ground with her opponent.

MAYA: “Need any help, Chloe?!”

CHLOE: [muffled] “Kind’a.”

The CAMERA FOLLOWS the two girls as they run over to their friend and joins in on the fight against the remaining demon.

Then PANNING OUT and FOCUSING on Spike and Drew as they stare at the spot where the girls are struggling with the vampire.

MILLA: "Grab his legs!"

MAYA: "I got him!"

CHLOE: "Who has a stake?"

MILLA: "Watch it!"

CHLOE: "Owww!"

PAUSE.

A CLOSE UP on Spike’s expression. He looks positively amazed.

SPIKE: “I’m strongly suspicious that we’re dealing with fools.”
