Take one week of training, add a dash of slaying

[slayers_desire]

After their first night together at the new training center, April established a new schedule for Rain to maintain. For the next week, she was very insistent on certain things. He woke at 8 a.m., ate a healthy breakfast and then after a half-hour would start stretching exercises. From 9 a.m. to noon, Rain would go through a series of martial practices. One hour with a familiar weapon, one hour with an unfamiliar weapon, and one hour with two weapons.

At noon he was have lunch, and time enough to have a nap. At 2 p.m., he would be directed to the library to study for one hour, then from 3 to 5 p.m., he would return to the training center. He would be run through a multi-dimensional session, with April tracking how well he was doing (so he could break his own records in the future).

After a supper at 5 p.m., April would insist again on a nap, then when he woke at 7 p.m., to stretch before heading to his world. And to his job. The night would be spent protecting his city. Slaying. Of course, when he returned to the training center, by 4 a.m., April would get all the information on his performance. And give him a massage, and sent him to bed.

Some nights they would share a bed. Other nights, if he was too tired, they would take to their separate beds. The nights that they had enough energy to share passion, it was tender and wouldn't extend Rain's energy.

By the end of the week, judging from Rain's scores on the training missions, and his increasing accomplishments in the field, April knew he was ready for something stronger than a mere vampire. And from some investigating, she discovered a low-level demon that was creating troubles for some innocents in Rain's neck of the woods.

So when it came to just before night, this time April brought Rain to a table that had several occult items laying on it. "Okay Rain, tonight you have to deal with a Der Kindestod. The name means "child death" and it feeds off of children by sucking the life out of them. He has been affecting a Children's Hospital nearby your city."

"One of the difficulties is that the Der Kindestod is invisible to all adults and can only be seen by children, madmen and the feverishly ill. His eyeballs extend and latch onto people, leeching their life force." April bit at her bottom lip, looking up at Rain, "For you to fight him, I am going to have to make you sick."

"It feeds on kids? Sick fuck." he growls.

"You've got to make me sick? How am I supposed to fight if I'm sick? Speaking of which..." he doesn't like to complain but...

"It should be easy to make me sick, I'm a little run down. Four hours of sleep a night just isn't cutting it. Any way we can work a little more sleep into my schedule? Skip one of the naps and just start later and then maybe head into our world at 8 or so?" He looked apologetic for complaining.

"I mean, Buffy probably got more sleep than I do."

"It won't be easy, fighting it while you are sick. But we can not allow this monster to continue to make kids sick... to feed off them until they die."

"More sleep? You get four hours at night, but then two naps at two horus each. That is eight hours in a day. The average a human needs." April responded to his concerns. She knew that he did not see it... but she actually got less sleep than he did. Research took up a lot of time. "And no... she didn't. Buffy had school during the day, then slaying at the night. She never got naps."

"Besides, it is just the new training schedule and the fact your body has not adjusted yet. Your slayer body should actually need less sleep than an average human." She paused, looking at him in concern that she was overworking him. "If it helps... I was planning to give you the weekend to rest and relax. Especially since you will need time to recover from the flu-bug I have to inject into you."

"Okay you're right. I'm just not used to it and being a whiny little bitch. I'm sorry."

He looked a little worried about the idea of being weakened. "So is this some sort of fast acting super flu? I'm not going to be able to take weapons into a hospital, do we know any of its weaknesses?"

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

"Your concerns are valid. Besides..." She moves to get close to him, running her hand through his hair. "Your my whiny little bitch. And I will take care of you this weekend, while you recover."

"It is a fast-acting flu, one that is able to get past your Slayer immune system. Mother created it on my request. It will only last 24 hours. But it will feel like worse."

"We were able to dedicate a lot of time to strength building this week, I feel confident you should be able to snap his neck. That is the quickest way to kill this kind of Demon."

He smiles when she ruffles his hair, then he smirks at her.

"Giving your mommy homework too? You're really letting this teacher job go to your head aren't ya?"

"So are we admitting me as a patient or do I just wander in off the street?"

"Oh... and should I roll up my sleeve or pull down my pants." he's curious where the needle's gonna go.

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

"My mother loves playing with chemicals." April smirked.

"You will dressed as a patient, and we will PINpoint you in. They will not bother you. And as much as I adore seeing your ass... the needle goes into your arm."

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

Rain rolled up his sleeve and looked away. He fucking hated needles. Weird that he could give them but hated getting them. "So I assume you've got this all figured out. Damn you're good." he said while he waited for the shot. "I hope I get to wear more than just a johnny shirt. As nice as my ass is, I don't want to be walking around the halls of the hospital with it hanging out." he laughs. "I hope the nurses and security don't try to stop me from snooping around and put me back to bed."

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

Carefully, giving him the shot, April gave him a smile. "You will have to wear a gown, but with underwear underneath. And Mother has written out a 'doctors form', which says that walking the halls is good for your recovery."

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

Rain can't help but laugh. "Great, I get to run around in my underwear, hunting a demon. Sounds like a bad movie."

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

"Speaking of... before the injection starts to take affect, you should strip down. And get into your patient gown."

What? Rain stripping is always a good thing.

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Sure, good idea. Where is it?" Rain peels off his shirt and starts unbuttoning his jeans.

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

"On the table. With a couple of knives you can strap to you inner thighs." April detailed. She leaned back and enjoyed watching him. Might as well enjoy his body now, she would not get the chance when he was sick.

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

"Guess I'll have to make sure I remember to strap them with the pointy edge down huh?" he chuckled, turning around and sliding the jeans off his firm ass and stepping out of them.

He suddenly staggered a bit and grabbed the edge of the table. He touched his head before straightening up. "Whoo... your mom did a good job." he was already a bit dizzy.

"I spy with your little eyes, a big fat ass whooping." Rain muttered with less gusto than he usually would. He felt sicker by the moment. He needed to end this soon. He yanked on the stalks with all his might.

The creature cried out in pain. It desperately tried to struggle free from Rain.

Before the Slayer knew it, he was getting some help. Two of the children had woken from the commotion and were hitting the Demon with metal trays.

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

Rain yanked at the stalks with all his might, trying to pull them out by the roots. If this thing managed to escape, it would starve if it couldn't feed on anymore kids.

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

The eyes seemed difficult to pull out, but one of the kids dropped their weapons. It broke and a sharp piece of metal fell by Rain's hand.

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

Rain gathered both stalks into one hand, grabbing the metal with his other. He slashed across the stalks, severing them. He felt the hot blood splash in his face, invisible to the rest of the world except the kids. He closed his mouth and eyes as he grabbed the head of the creature and wrenched the neck as hard as he could.

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

The creature was in so much pain from his eyes being severed, that it was easy for Rain to break its neck. And soon, its dead body was lying on him.

"Mistah? Is it dead?"

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

Rain heard the satisfying crack. He waited a second just to make sure. "Yeah kids.. it won't be bothering you again. Get back to bed ok?" he said, taking the creature's sleeve and wiping the blood from his face before rolling it off him. He dragged the creature a few feet down the hall and heaved the body into the garbage chute. He staggered back down the hall to the children's room, holding onto the wall as his head swam. He took a couple steps into the room and fell to the floor, unconscious.

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

The kids had been going to bed, when they paused when Rain fell to the floor. They rushed around him, when a portal opened and April stepped through. The kids looked up at her in confusion, she gave them a smile and said, "Your guardian angel needs rest. Go to bed children."

Lifting Rain into her arms, April returned him back to their training centre. Taking him to his bed, to lay down. Where she started to wash him from the blood, puke and sweat from his body with a damp cloth.

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

This is a time when it's convenient that April has vampire strength. Rain isn't a lightweight.

As she washes him, he shivers occasionally. Still out like a light but his body reacting to the sickness. After awhile his eyes open, searching the room. Where was he? He hadn't been in the new home long enough to recognize his room at a glance when delusional.

"Mom?" he groaned, out of it.

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

"Shush Rain. It is okay." April continued to keep his forehead moist with the cloth.

[chimera-slayer.livejournal.com]

He blinked a couple times, his mind catching up. It couldn't be his mom, mom was dead. Everything gradually reeled back together and he remembered why he felt horrible.

"April? What happened? I remember dumping the body and then nothing."

[slayers-desire.livejournal.com]

"You fainted. I had to find you." April explained. It had been dangerous for her to enter his dimension, but he was worth it.
