Buffy the Vampire Slayer #3
Over the Threshold Part III: The Lost Key Written by Terence Jordan INT-BUNKER We see the scooby gang standing around in uncomfortable silence staring at Anya who had been killed during battle against the first 6 years ago. Faith (bluntly) If anyone not going to ask the obvious, how the hell are you here? Buffy Summers Obviously Amy, the real question is why?> It can’t just be because of revenge. Rupert Giles You believe there’s a bigger agenda? Buffy Summers With Amy, it’s always is. She may hate us. Well, more specifically me but there’s another agenda. Faith The Question is what? Anya The Lost Key. They all look at Anya with questionable looks. By her side is Xander. Rupert Giles The Lost Key? What is that? Faith Wow something jeeves doesn’t know. That’s a first. He shoots her a look. Anya It’s a key to a gateway that can apparently revive the dead permanently. Buffy Summers Meaning she’s trying to bring someone back but who? Who would Amy Madison want back alive. Faith What’s attacking and trying to kill us going to achieve getting this Lost Key? Rupert Giles My thoughts exactly, The key you speak of is no more than a Myth. Xander Harris Seems Giles does know Faith. You been holding out on us. Giles walks to he shelf and grabs a book. Rupert Giles What Anya describes it sounds like The Quicken. Faith Sounds like one of Xander’s dates. Xander scowls and Faith smirks. Rupert Giles As I was saying The Quicken was said to be a key to the afterlife created by one of the most powerful witches in history. With it you can crossover and bring one soul back. Buffy Summers (crossing her arms) How? Rupert Giles It was never recorded which is why it was deemed a fools quest. Many people died in search including some Watchers. Buffy Summers Amy doesn’t think so. And she plans on killing me to get it. Faith That’s the part I don’t understand B. what does her getting the key have to do with us. Why not just go find it. Anya It has everything to do with the Slayers. Giles the key is very much real. Buffy Summers Seems you know more about it than any of us. Anya Yes and I know where it is. Also I told Amy, she’s on her way to it now. Buffy Summers You did what? Anya I’m sorry. I had no choice. She force it out of me. Faith Nice going, why don’t you tell her where we are why don’t you. Xander Harris Hey back off! She said she didn’t have a choice. Faith Of course stick up for your dead girlfriend. Xander Harris Hop off your high horse Mayor’s lackey. Buffy Summers Enough! Both of you! Anya where is Amy going. Anya (doesn’t respond) Buffy Summers (walks to her and places a hand on her shoulder) Anya we don’t have time for hesitation. Whoever Amy plans to bring back could be worse than anything. Xander Harris Come on An. He gently squeezes her shoulder and Anya holds his hand. Anya The Island of Dauour. Rupert Giles Dead? Xander Did anyone else get chills. Faith Island of the Dead. Could it be anymore obvious. Anya It’s an Island blocked by dark magic. Only can be open by a witch. Xander Harris So were going need a witch. We have few on the team. Anya It has to be a very powerful witch more specifically rooted into dark magic. Where’s Willow? The others look at each other uncomfortably accept Buffy who stares Anya emotionless. Buffy Summers She’s no longer part of the team. We can get in touch with Bennett. Xander Harris Will do. Wait, why go for a key to raise someone from the dead. She obviously already have the power to. Anya It’s different Xander. When she broke the seal it was through her own magic. The ones she brought back is connected through her. It’s pretty much draining her. Buffy Summers Let’s move. Buffy exits fully equipped to do some damage. Xander looks to Faith and Giles. Xander Harris Maybe we should really consider contacting Willow. Faith You heard B. Contact Bonnie Xan. And keep an eye out on your dead girlfriend. She gives Anya a stern look of distrust. Faith Don’t want any surprises. Anya turns her head in shame. EXT-SEA OF THE LOST SOULS There’s a long sea that stretches for miles. It looks like it’s no end in sight. Fog is all around. A boat sails down the path. On the boat is Amy along with the ones she brought back to life. For the time being. By her side is Caleb looking at her notice she appears a little weaker. Caleb You don’t look so hot. Amy Madison I’m fine priest. Caleb Sure. So this is your plan? A so called mythical island that you got from a vengeance demon. Amy Madison A vengeance demon in my control. I might add. Caleb Yeah. The island is myth it doesn’t exist. Amy Madison Shut up and just watch. (recites incantation) The fog starts to split and then we start to see an Island in the distance. A mountain top in shape of skull entrance. Caleb I stand corrected. Amy smirks smugly. Caleb Why it’s always a Skull on remote island. How cliche. You really think this so called Key is here. Amy Madison Were about to find out. And soon as my two slayers show up, my goals will be achieved. She has michievious grin on her face. TO BE CONTINUED

Over the Threshold Issue #2: The City of Ghosts Written by Terence Jordan EXT-VAHALLA, NEVADA We see citizens of Vahalla going about their business and life as usual. Outside the city through the trees we see several freed ghosts starting to enter the city. One ghost we recognize from the past is Anya. She seems lost and confused. Another ghost is all to familiar and it’s the Preacher known as Caleb who was loyal to the first. In the cent of all the ghost flock surrounding this individual the one who freed them from the other side is Amy Madison. Amy Madison You lost souls belong to me. If you want to ascend to wherever the hell you believe in. You’ll do as I say. Anya Exactly, is that? Amy Madison Bring me Buffy’s head and her friends. Caleb I like this plan. Anya doesn’t like the plan as you can tell by her worried expression. INT-BUNKER We see Faith, Xander, and Giles surrounding a table full of maps. Rupert Giles The Cult of Klegan in Kentucky, that should be our next priority. Xander Klegan? Sounds like a terrible rock band. Rupert Giles The Cult of Klegan sacrifice babies for a cause they believe will bring the demon god back. Faith Will it? Rupert Giles (looks to Faith) The Cult of Klegan has been around for centuries and sacrificed so many, yet there’s no resurrection. They’re nothing more than cult of killers. Faith Wow jeeves sounds like you had history with these guys. Story for another time I guess. By the way a simple no would have been just fine. She smiles at him and he her gives her annoyed look. Xander Our numbers are spread thin. With Willow gone. Magic is low. There’s a vampire next in Colorado. Several dead bodies turning up. I say we send a team of slayers theire also. Buffy We have bigger problems. They turn to see Buffy and next to her is the ghost of Principal Snyder. Xander Oh my dear merciful god. This is my worse nightmare. Well one of them. Principal Snyder Mr. Harris, still have way with words I see. Xander Please God tell me I’m dreaming. Giles removes his glasses as he walks forward. Buffy Summers Good Ol Principal Snyder has come back to haunt us cause not even hell wants him. Snyder scolds her. Rupert Giles What exactly is going on Buffy? What and How are you doing here? Xander The real is question is, is this just a figment of my imagination. Maybe it’s genjitsu. Faith Okay, no more anime watching for you Xander. Buffy Summers Apparently a seal has been broken and all the baddy ghost have been freed. Rupert Giles What seal? Principal Snyder I was trying to get tot hat but I keep getting interrupted by these delinquents you associate yourself with Mr. Giles. The seal has been broken by some witch. Now all the ghost like me with unfinished business is free. Rupert Giles This isn’t good. Principal Snyder You think. I came to warn you cause frankly I hate to admit but you do guys can- He struggles to say it. Buffy Summers Go on, you can do it big guy. On the tip of your tongue. Principal Snyder Stop it Ms. Summers Buffy Summers There you go. So we have city of ghosts to take care of. Xander Like Ghostbusters and Snyder can be our very own Slimer. Buffy Summers Always said we needed a mascot. Faith Why not Snyder, he can hand dentention slips for our so called fans. Snyder looks annoyed. As they smirk at him, even Giles has small smile on his face. Then we start to hear warning alarms going off. Faith We got trouble. Rupert Giles (turning on Monitors) The City is being attacked. Buffy Summers What? Xander and Buffy with Faith walk towards the screen. The ghost freed from Amy are attacking downtown city of Vahalla. They recognize the preacher from their fight against the first. Xander grabs his eye patch remembering what that monster did to him. Xander Seems Snyder isn’t the only blast from the past. Faith The Preacher dude. Buffy Summers Caleb. Who’s the Witch that freed her? Principal Snyder Amy Madison. Which I was trying to say. Xander Amy? Wasn’t she a rat? Buffy Summers No time for explanations. Those people need are help. Let’s move. Giles make a call and get us two more slayers to spare. She grabs some weapons. Xander How exactly are we going to fight ghosts? Rupert Giles Judging from the video, they have the ability to materialize solid base form. Which explains why they can touch objects. Buffy Summers That’s all I need to know. If I can hit it. Then it can die again. Xander Maybe since it’s magic related and Amy is a powerful witch. Willow could- Faith Xander… Buffy Summers Not happening Xander. End of discussion. Xander nods as three of them head out the bunker. Giles looking at Snyder who is uncomfortable as they stand across from each other. EXT-DOWNTOWN VAHALLA We see several ghosts terrorizing the citizens of the city as the people run for their lives. Caleb stabbed a women the heard and then licks the blood off the knife. We go up to a rooftop as Amy watches on waiting for Buffy to arrive. Amy Madison Alright Buffy, Where are you? Surely you know what my minions are doing to the city. Anya Did you just say minions? What are you, a Saturday morning cartoon villain. Man no one was here to hear me say that. Amy Madison (annoyed) Why aren’t you down there? You are under my control. Anya I’m not hurting Xander or Buffy. Amy turns to her with sadistic expression Amy Madison You will and you don’t have a choice in the matter. I can do things to you that’s worse than death. Her eyes glow green. We go back down to the attack downtown of Vahalla. Caleb sees a young small boy and smiles at him. Caleb How I love children. He walks over to the boy, tossing other civilians in his path out the way.The former servant of the First takes out a dagger. The child’s eyes go wide in fear. Caleb Have you been forgiven my child. Have you cleansed the sins. Buffy Summers (high fly kicks him in the face) Oh shut up! The preacher falls back. Buffy signals the boy to run to a safe hiding place. Caleb runs the cheek the slayer landed the kick on. Buffy Summers Sprouting that gibberish again I see. The First is gone. You have no loyalty to it anymore. Where’s Amy? Caleb (smiles) True but this just me getting my revenge on you. As for Amy she wants your head and I aim to deliver. Buffy Summers This is going to end like the last time, with a split up the middle. Caleb Oh I’m going to enjoy ripping pretty little head of yours off that tight little body. So round three bitch! He swings at her and she ducks dodging his attack. Buffy then drops and sweeps causing him to fall down on his side. Then she kicks him in the face. She tries again but he ghost forms and appears behind her. Caleb Cool isn’t it? One of the perks of being a ghost. He straight jabs her in the face. Then again repeatedly until she catches his wrist and then wraps her leg around his neck flipping him on his head hitting hard concrete. We got to Xander and Faith who are fighting other ghost of demons. The black hair slayer is fighting two three demons who Kurak species black dreaded demons look similar to the predator.The Kurak demon grabs her by the throat and slams her on the ground on her back. Faith manuvers by twirling on the ground kicking the demon out of her face. Xander has two gun pistols shooting at the ghosts but they keep going back between ghost and solid form. Xander How do we fight things that’s already dead? One of the ghost demons slam Xander agains the wall The two Kurak demons kick Faith against the wall next to Xander. Faith Oh I’m surely going break that ugly Predator looking things neck. Xander We’re out numbered. Where are the other two slayers Giles suppose to call. They heard a sound of a helicopter. Then the helicopter hover downtown of Vahalla. Buffy is still fighting Caleb. Amy walks closer to the edge of the building she is on. Amy Madison What is this? Someone is messing up the show. We go back to the helicopter as we see two Slayers as the door opens up. One girl is mexican descent black hair with purple streaks on the side and the other girl is white blonde hair with pink streaks in her hair. Slayer 1 Luckily Andrew had this in the armory. Shine the light Brittany and vaporize these ghosts. Brittany turns on a huge light and it shines on the ghost They start burning and vaporizing in the smoke. Brittany (jokingly) I’m not afraid of no ghost. Slayer 1 Could you be anymore corny Brittany. Brittany Shut up Kara! Buffy smiles at the two slayers and Amy looks angered. Amy Madison Oh no, I can’t have this. She says an incintation and the helicopter begins to shake. The propellers begin to fold. Kara We have to bail out! Grab the special artillery. The two slayers exit out the helicopter before it crashes. Brittany is holding a black bag. The copter explodes when it hits the middle of the street. Buffy Summers Andrea is going to hate that. Fifth one this week. Caleb I be more concerned with yourself. And what I’m going to do to you. Buffy Summers Such a sweet talker. She spinn round house punches and then jump kicks him in the chest. Amy Madison This is not going as planned. My Minions, retreat. Caleb What the hell that bitch call me? Buffy Summers Go on…(smirks) minion. He tries to tackled her but gets a kick to the face. He ghost forms and goes through her giving Buffy a shiver. Plus he manages to escape. The rest follow pursuit. Amy appears before Buffy. Amy Madison This far from over Slayer. You will die and so will the other Slayers. Buffy Summers Amy. This isn’t a fight you want. She smirks as the others run to Buffy’s aid. Amy has vanished by the time they arrive. Faith What exactly is that chicks deal? Buffy Summers She wants me dead, the usual. This won’t be the end of it. Get ready for another battle. Xander With Ghosts who can’t really die. And the weapon to kill them is destroyed with the helicopter. Brittany We have weapons that can help against fighting the ghosts. She hands Buffy a blade with a button on the handle. She presses it and a crystal blue light enguls it. Xander My dreams have come true thank you god. A light saber. Kara It’s made form the same light that we used against the ghosts. You like, boss. Buffy Summers I’ll take two, please. Buffy twirls the blade with Amy still out there ready to destroy the slayer. Anya Xander. They all turn to see Anya in shock. Xander Anya? To Be Continued… Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Issue #1 Over the Threshold: Broken Seal Written by Terence Jordan EXT-CEMETERY VAHALLA, NEVADA We see some demon creature running away from someone. The creature is made up of human flesh and wearing black and red clothing. He seems to be afraid. The demon cuts around a corner to see a woman with blonde hair wearing red pants with a white tank top. He looks at her nervous. Buffy Summers I’m sure you’ve heard of me, right? Demon Slayer! Buffy Summers You are correct. And your prize is, that this isn’t going to be your night. So make it easy and just let me kill you. He looks at her puzzled. Then run towards her to attack. Buffy Summer Hard way it is then. She drops down and sweeps his leg causing him to trip and hit a grave. Buffy Summers That is so disrespectful… I tried to give you an easy out. She goes to stab him with a dagger but the demon kicks her in the midsection making Buffy stumble back. Then the demon gets up and swings at her. She blocks each attack and then decks straight in the noses. And follows up with high kick to his chest. The flesh wearing demons falls to the ground. Buffy Summers FYI, the whole wearing human flesh, eww. She stabs it in the heart with the dagger. The demon begins to terribly shake and evaporates leaving molded flesh skin. Buffy Summers (grabs noses) Wow, that stinks. Really bad. A little warning next Giles. Another flesh demon is behind her thinking she’s not aware but she smiles. Buffy is about to attack until the demon is stabbed in the back as we see the dagger go through its heart. It falls down with same death reaction. We see the reason of his demise is a brunette woman wearing black jeans and white tank top with a biker jacket over the top. She is smiling arrogantly at Buffy. Faith You gotta watch your six, B. Buffy Summer I totally had him. Faith Right, just admit I saved your ass, again. Buffy Summers So we’re keeping score now. Cause I’m pretty sure I’m winning. Remember Chicago. Faith What about Florida with the sea creature. Buffy Summers Umm. Let’s just say it was a tie. Faith You’re sore loser, B. Buffy Summers Am not, I don’t think I am. Faith Buff we have to do something tonight. Buffy Summers I don’t know. We have to head out early and- Faith Which is why we have to tear it up one for- Wherever the hell town this is. We have to cut loose once in a while. Buffy Summers Fine, but not all night again. Not too wasted either like New York. Miss I seen a red demon in a trench coat. Faith One I was not that wasted and two I really did see it. Buffy Summers Sure. A vampire is about to attack Faith but Buffy pulls a stake out and pushes Faith slightly to the side a little, then stabs the Vamp. It turns to dust. Buffy Summers And that’s me up. Gotta watch your six, F. She smirks while walking off. Faith shakes her head smiling. INT-HIDDEN TEMPLE NIGHT A woman walks into a temple ruins that seems long abandon. Can’t see the woman’s face as she’s wearing a orange robe with a hood covering her head and face. She continues to walk through the temple as if she’s searching for something. After a few minutes, the mysterious women makes it to the end. It’s a wall with a circle symbol and weird y shape in the middle. (translated in unknown language) A monk comes from around the corner wearing the same type of robe as her. Monk I knew you’ll be back here. Mysterious Woman I see you survived old man. Monk I advise you again, not to do this. Mysterious Woman Vengeance may make me irrational but I will have it. One way or another. Monk She will stop you, you know that. But I must try as well. The monk say a incantation and green energy forms in his hands. But before he can attack, the mysterious woman waves her hand and the monk is engulfed in flames. He screams in agony. She then recites an spell in a strange language. The symbol glows green and then white. The symbol disappears and smoke explodes out. We go to the woman’s face as we see under the hood. She has white and has brownish hair. Amy Madison Prepare yourself Buffy, vengeance will be mine. INT-HIDDEN BUNKER We see Buffy laying in bed suffering from a hangover. Faith is standing in the doorway laughing at her. Buffy Summers I hate you so much right now Faith. Faith Oh you love me, and you had a good time. Especially way you were grinding on that guy last night. Such a slut. Buffy looks at her annoyed. Faith Come on, don’t be like that. Plus it’s go time in five. Faith walks out as Buffy throws a pillow in her direction. Voice So the slayer has hangover. Still the delinquent I see. Buffy jumps up as she recognizes the voice. Standing in the bunker is former Principal Snyder. Principal Synder What’s the matter Summers? Surprise to see me. Buffy Summers No way. TO BE CONTINUED |
