Chapter 24: Problems of Gigantic Proportion

"Thanks professor." I said, clutching my books, " The papers'll so be here, I've just been really sick."

"I understand." he smiled.

I smiled and turned to walk when I bumped into someone. I stopped and looked up at a blonde guy who looked like that guy from 'The Prince and Me'. You know, that move with Julia Styles and...Luke Malby! That's who he looked like. Luke Malby, " Oh, sorry." I said, staring maybe too long.

"Hello." he said in a very british voice, " I'm Colby Dinade Salvidge III. Most Americans call me Colby Dinade."

"Wow, you're british." I smiled.

"Yes, very...." he smiled, " Do you have a name?"

"I...I'm...dammit, knew I should have worn the name tag." I said to myself, " I'm Austin Young. Are you from..."

"London? Yes." Colby smiled.

"Really?" I asked, " I know someone from London. Actually a council and...I'm rambling, sorry."

"No. I'm just a bit out of my mind, it's been a very long couple of months." I smirked, walking away.

Colby jogged behind me, " Freshman?" he asked, walking beside me, " I'm a junior, or I was in Denmark."

"Denmark?" I asked, " Must be beautiful and I'd love to talk about it, really." I stared at him, " But I'm already late." I said, scurrying off.

"It's okay." he shouted after me, " I understand. See you later."

"Sir." Rison Callow, Colb's bodyguard said, " Roden has called. He wishes to speak to you now."

"Well done Rison. Well done." Colby said, following Rison out of the building.


Connor made his way through the Hell City, Uratha, trying to find a way out of this horrible place! This place reminded him of his first hell dimension, only with building and people from L.A.; Of course this one was worse because he knew there was a better dimension. Connor had fought alongside Angel and a few of his crew. He'd been in this place for what seemed like years, but he hadn't aged. The world around him changed, but he didn't. He knew that he had become different, more primal and he missed his friends, he missed Austin. God, did he miss Austin. A roar came from behind him and he knew that he had to keep moving, for Austin, for the gang. For everyone.


"So, this demon did what?" Groo asked.

"He came to us in our dreams. He mdae my friend kill my other friend." Tessa said, explaining events of the past two days.

"So, he possessed you and your friend?" Oz asked, " Sounds like a demon."

"He looked human, but with horns and kept saying something about a slayer." Tessa said.

"He killed your friend?" Groo asked.

"Yes. He made me kill my friend." Tessa said angrily.

"Ok, we believe you, where did you meet this guy?" Oz asked.

"The Cemetary." Tessa answered, " That's why my friend was here, so we could say goodbye."

Oz looked to Groo, who had the same look on his face, " We shall do anything we can to find this creature." Groo said peacefully, " We should find...the slayer before the demon does."

"Yeah." Oz said, turning to leave, " Be careful, Tessa."

Tessa nodded and watched the guys leave. After they had left, Tessa smiled and walked to the mirror, " They will search and I will find the slayer." she said, picking up a knife and stabbing herself.


"Fangs, bumpy face, super strong...yep, you're dead." I said, kicking the vampire onto his back and staking him, " You were dust before you were...dust." I turned around and began to leave the cemetary. I found myself face to face with Colby again, " Holy...what are you doing here?"

"Umm, I talked to people and they said you frequented the...cemetary, do you do so often?" he asked.

I chuckled, " Why are you stalking me?" I asked.

"I'm...I'm not stalking you. I just want to...we didn't meet the way we should have." he stammered.

"Really?" I asked, " How should we have met?"

"Well, I...I guess there should have been some funny jokes and less tension." he smiled.

"Are you hitting on me?" I smiled.

Colby turned red, " A little, is it working. I'm dreadfully sorry, I have never done this and..." he smiled.

"I know you from somewhere." I said, trying to place him.

"Why do you frequent such an odd, dreadful place?" Colby asked.

"Because," I said slowly, " I have a lot of dead friends. They die a lot and often." I answered, then I thought about what he said, " Who told you I 'frequent' cemetaries?"

"A few people." Colby smiled, " I shall ask ou on a date, and it would be an honor for me if you would join me."

"How do you know I'm not some closed minded bigot." I asked.

"Because...well, I guess I don't, but..." he pointed at the limo and a man standing by it, " I have bodyguards."

"Bodyguards?" I asked.

"Don't ask, it's a long story." Colby said, looking down, " So, about our date?"

"I can't...I was...am, in this relationship and..." I stammered, " I would love to, believe me."

"So, would you like to at least get coffee?" he asked.

I sighed, " Sure, but only if you leave now." I smiled.

"Are you trying to get rid of me?" he asked.

"Do you want that date?" I asked.

"You drive a hard bargain." he smiled, " So, I'll see you..."

"At school. We can make arrangementns from there." I smiled.

"How do I know you're not going to dodge me?" he asked.

"Self-conscious?" I joked.

"What's your number?" he asked.

I sighed and wrote my number on his hand, " Why don't you ask the people who told you about the cemetary?"

Colby smiled and walked back to his limo, glancing at me one more time before disappearing into the car. I smiled and turned around to see Lindsey standing in front of me.

"He's cute." Lindsey said, " I mean, first Connor, then me, then him...you do move fast."

"What are you doing here?" I sneered.

"I came to see you." he said, licking his lips, " I mean, you're a fine piece of a..."

I punched him in the mouth and he stumbled backwards, " You should watch your mouth."

"I was to busy watching yours." Lindsey smiled, wiping his mouth and I walked away, " Where you going? Look, I'm sorry."

"You're sorry?" I asked, turning around, " You kidnapped me and we..." I stopped.

"I love you." Lindsey said, moving closer to me.

I moved back, " People don't do things like that to people they love. You could have helped me, done better...been a better person, but killing a piece of me wasn't a way." I said.

"I didn't mean to kill a piece of you, I just wanted you to see me as someone other than the 'Evil' guy." Lindsey said sincerely.

"And that's all you showed me. Evil." I said, " I could kill you, but I can't. If I kill you, I lose all of me."

"Good, good, I have time to make it up." he breathed.

"Now him," I said, pointing to a new vampire behind him, " I could care less about." I said, throwing a stake and hitting him right in the chest, then walking away.


I got back to the Hyperion to see Oz, Groo, kelly, and Doug sitting around, astounded.

I walked in and looked at them, " Hey, who died?" I joked.

Oz looked at me with raised eyebrows.

"Crap! Who died?" I asked, walking closer to them.

"It's Dawn." Oz said, getting to his feet.

I frowned and looked around, noticing she was absent, " DAWN!" I shouted, " Where is she? What happened?" I asked.

"You're gonna love this." Doug smirked.

"Explain or I'm gonna break someone's bones for my bread." I said angrily.

"Dawn...um, is a giant." Oz said, backing up, " There was some stuff and she got really big."

"As in a growth spurt?" I asked.

"As in Godzilla." Kelly said, earning an elbow from Doug.

"Where is she?" I asked.

"Well, Buffy and the gang are coming to get her." Oz explained, " They're taking her to Scotland."

I sighed with relief, " That's...better, yet worse. I'm sorta on the ropes about this one. So, they're taking her away?" I asked.

"Yeah." Kelly said, " They wanted to wait, but getting Dawn to Scotland unnoticed is so not gonna happen. At first, she was just growing in inches, then she started in meters and...it was amazing."

"Right...right...I should go." I said, turning and walking to the door.

"I'll drive." Oz said, grabbing his coat and following me out of the door.


On the ride, I couldn't stop thinking that somehow this was so my fault. I noticed lately, Dawn was very quiet and stand-offish and I was so worried about being out of the grasp of Wolfram and hart that I ignored the little slut. I'm just kidding about the slut part, but sex with thricewise will do that to you...or so I've read. The gang was really helpful and I loved them for it and life was funny. Connor is lost in some alternate dimension or dead and I'm making plans with some guy that I just met. A cute, british and potentially rich guy, but another guy none-the-less.

"Are you okay?" Oz asked, looking over to me, " You seem not okay."

"Thanks." I chuckled, " No, I just had a run in with a guy who's trying to get in my pants."

"You ran into Lindsey?" Oz asked with shock.

"Him too." I sighed, " I'm just this guy. Then I'm just this mental patient...then just a slayer. Then life changes and someone screw with your mind and you get stalked by someone who could have killed your parents."

"Are we talking about you or me?" Oz asked.

I looked at him.

"I'm here for you." Oz said quickly, " I know and I think I'm gonna call for you in a...HOLY HELL!" I said, looking out the window, " Dawn is a giant."

Oz looked at Dawn, " Told ya." he said in shock.

As the van came to a stop, I jumped out and ran to Buffy, Xander, and some Slayers, hugging Buffy immediately.

"Buffy, I'm so sorry, I..." I said.

"No, it's...Dawn." Buffy said, looking up at her little sister.

I turned to Xander, " XANDER!" I said, hugging him.

"Who's this?" a slayer asked.

"Oh, this is Austin, Austin this is Renee." Xander said, introducing us.

I nodded, " You must be one of the new slayers, love the look." I smiled.

"Ditto." she smiled, " I'm honored to meet the only male slayer."

"Thank god you didn't call me..." I started.

"THE PRINCE!" another slayer yelled.

I groaned, " Buffy, I'm so gonna get you." I said.

"Xander did it." she smiled.

"Right. I'm gonna talk to Dawn." i said, walking to Dawn, " Oh Dawn..."

"Hey." Dawn smiled weakly, " Sorry I..."

"No, I'm sorry I'm a complete asshole. I mean, you were...and I was..." I stammered.

"So, how's big look on me?" she asked.

"Big." I shrugged, " Did you and Kenny...do it?"

Dawn blushed, " This is the worst day of my life." she groaned, " I can see the Hyperion from here."

"I'm coming to see you." I said.

"Good."

"Dawn, how'd this happen?" I asked, " How could I not have known something was wrong?"

"Because you just got back and this is not your fault." Dawn said, " Just be careful."

"I'm safest now. I've got like six other slayers here." I smiled, " Dawn, is there anything I can do?"

"Find Connor." she said.

Buffy walked over, " We have to go. It's still night, but the sun'll be up soon and we really don't need people to see this." she said.

"Oh, well..." I said, looking between them, " Who's she?" I asked, causing Buffy and Dawn to look around at the approaching woman.

"I don't know. She's not one of ours." Xander said, joining us.

"That's our client's friend." Oz said.

"You have clients?" Buffy asked.

I nodded and watched as the woman took on one of the slayers. The woman kicked her ass! The other slayers got ready, but I shouted, " STOP!" I said, noticing that the Woman wasn't interested in them.

"Slayer." it hissed.

"Demon." I said angrily and without turning around I talked to Buffy, " Buffy, get Dawn into the air, now." I said, walking forward.

"Everybody stand down," Xander said, " We're watching."

I looked at him, a look of annoyance etched across my face, and I looked around to try and find something to make this fight easier, then my eyes stopped on the girl, " Oz, what do we know? Is she human?" I asked.

"Possessed. But that body is dead already." he replied.

"Good." I said, watching the demon run at me. I ducked the first five punches, but was caught by the next one and it sent my spiraling back into a brick wall. I looked up in time to see a hand grab my face and I rolled into the center of the semi-circle. I heard the clutter Dawn made getting on the cargo plane and I brought my leg around, sweeping the feet from under the demon. I got to my feet and punched the demon in the face! I jumped into the air and whirled around, kicking the demon into the wall.

"You can't kill me. I'll just jump into the next body." the demon smiled, " Besides, you wouldn't want Connor to have to deal with me in hell."

"Actually, We did our reading. There's a ritual. It only works if you kill yourself." Oz added.

I smiled.

"Here!" Buffy said, throwing me the Scythe and I chopped her in half, " Awww, I miss Caleb."

"Right." I nodded, exhaling deeply, " Dawn..." I said, noticing she was gone.

"Bloody hell. That was frickin awesome!" one of the slayers shouted.

"You guys have to go." I smirked, hugging Buffy and Xander, " Where Wildo?"

"Still gone with Kennedy." Xander smiled, " We'll tell her you said hi."

"K." I smiled, " Later." I said, watching them walk away to the helicopter and I shouted, " Buff." and she turned. I threw the Scythe back to her and she smiled, hopping aboard the helicopter. As they got off the ground, I stared up at them and wondered what had just happened. Had I just lost another person? Had I already given up on Connor? No. Never. And I won't give up on Dawn. I'll fight to get them back, but only after a nap.

"Ready to go?" Oz asked, putting an arm around me.

"Yeah." I said, walking with him to the van.


If you liked it, let me know and I'll start on the next one.
