Light Drabbles

“I was the one who said that.”

“What? You said ‘Let there be light’?”

“Yeah. Totally me.”

“You... are not that witty.”

“And you think you are so smart?”

“Smarter than you.”

“I can tell you exactly what happened. Remember how dark it was? I said ‘Let there be light’ and there was light. And then I told a guy how cool it was, and he wrote it down. He made up the rest of the stuff though.”

“You are so full of it.”

And as the Powers That Be bickered, a young girl fought to keep evil at bay.


Sunrise

She lay on the grass, staring up at the sky. The stars faded one by one, the sky lightening to pre-dawn gray. She’d always loved watching the sun rise. At first, it was about the coolness of staying up all night, partying with her friends. After she was called, sunrise took on a new meaning. Every dawn meant she’d lived through another battle.

It seemed to take forever, but the sun eventually rose. Another day finally came. Buffy lay in the pool of blood and sighed in relief, her eyes sliding closed and her breath coming in one last gasp.

Oh my, poor Buffy!

Very well done, my dear!

I suppose I should have done a character death warning, but I hate giving it away like that. :) Glad you liked.

Oh, no... character death warnings are nasty spoilery things!

I know! It's not like we didn't get used to character death in the show - if people get upset about it, they are in the wrong fandom!

I especially liked the second one. A poignant little twist at the end - very nifty.

I loved that last one, although the final line was chilling. Well done.
