Training has been interesting. At least I'm finally in enough control of my strength that I've stopped breaking things. Xander was a good sport about it. Said we're just keeping him busy with his carpenter skills. My parents checked in with me and they don't seem to miss me much. Nice. Oh well, it's not like things were great at home. Nothing like

*makes a small face, knocking on the door*

*waits for it to open*

Hi. Chloe, right? I'm Amber. I'm supposed to give you the Sunnydale Slayer tour?

[ct_apocalypse]

*smiles*

Hi Amber, I'm Zoe.

*closes the door behind her*

Thanks for agreeing to show me around. It was a little embarrassing when Xander offered to give me the special Xander Harris tour.

*looks at Zoe blankly*

Um, ok. *shrugs*

I'm not sure if I'm the best person and all, but I've lived here a few years - I moved here with my brother. It's a kinda creepy town, but then, I guess you know that by now.

*leans over to whisper confidentially*

Seriously, vamp dust is totally bad for the complexion, I'm gonna have to switch moisturizers.

[ct_apocalypse]

Really? I haven't actually dusted any vamps yet. I'd imagine it would be pretty gross to try and get out of clothes.

*makes a face*

I'm told there are like other kind of demons and when we kill them they can get slime and stuff on you. Ugh.

*eyes light up, beams a smile at Amber*

Could you teach me? I took some dance and stuff for cheerleading back home and I think maybe that would actually help a lot more than...

*mimics Buffy's voice*

Grip, thrust and lunge, hit the heart.

[amber_oneil]

Oh, totally!

*smiles brightly*

It goes like this...

*hums a second under her breath, then does three sideways steps towards Zoe, holding her fist at her own chest until the last one, when it lashes out and stops just short of Zoe's chest*

See? I mean, the whole point is - you're supposed to do that, right ? And, like, it doesn't matter from which direction.

The hardest part is not singing aloud.

[ct_apocalypse]

*watches Amber do the routine one more time before repeating the same steps*

Oh my God! That totally rules!

You're like really good at this. Were you upset when you found out you were a slayer?

I didn't take the news well at first.

*hums and practices the moves again*

[amber_oneil]

*makes a face*

No, I was totally more upset when I found out I still have to start a Future Farmers of America society at school and that, like, there are pictures of me wearing overalls out there...*waves her hand*

Long story.

No, I mean, the vampires and stuff are gonna keep coming after me and my friends anyway, right? At least now I've got an edge.

*shows Zoe another step, stops and takes a second*

Plus, I'm totally using it against my brother. I mean, I'm a superhero now, which totally means I get rights to the last piece of cake - I'm saving the world.
