Hunting 101 - Class 4 (Wednesday period 7)

When the students entered the Danger Shop, they found themselves standing on the side of a deserted highway at night time.



John was leaning against the same black car from the last time. "Welcome to Lone Pine Highway. The one mile stretch beginning just past that curve has had an inordinate amount of disappearances, going back decades. There have also been stories, told by people who've travelled this highway, about seeing a dark sinister figure on a black horse. Some of the stories go so far as to talk about the figure galloping after them brandishing a sword. Digging deeper into the area's local folklore, you would find a tale of a highwayman hung on a tree somewhere along this road back in Colonial times. His bones are said to be buried among the roots of the tree.

"Your assignment is to lay this ghost to rest without getting yourselves killed or injured." He looked around at the gathered students seriously. "Unlike the last ghost you faced, this one is very aggressive and dangerous and will attack you on sight. Keep that in mind and act accordingly.

"Also unlike last week, I'm allowing you to decide how to group yourselves in going after this ghost. You can pair up with whom you will, or even go in groups of three or four, or if you're feeling particularly brave -- or foolhardy -- you can attempt this alone. Although," John smiled slightly, "I wouldn't reccomend the latter.

"You'll find a large assortment of weapons and equipment in the trunk of this car; when you have chosen your group, choose what you think you'll need to defend yourselves and get the job done."

John leaned back against the hood of the car with a grin. "If there are no questions, you may begin when ready."

Chris was tired as he looked around for a partner.

Mel decided to pick on the the tired looking quiet guy. "Wake up. It's the last class of the day."

"Yeah, I know," Chris said. "Then I get to go back to my room and hit the books again."

"That sucks," Mel replied. "What do you have a big test already coming up?"

Chris snorted. "In a manner of speaking. Let's just say I'll probably be field testing some of the lessons from this class very soon. I'm Chris, by the way."

"Mel," she replied getting a curious look on her face. "So... we have a ghost running around the school?"

"Demon," Chris replied with a sigh. "The Source of all Evil, to be precise. He's possessed one of the students."

Mel snorts. "Yeah, right. This another prank from the students who've been here forever?"

"It's not a joke," Chris insisted. "He attacked some people and hurt them pretty badly."

Mel blinked with a second and remembered what Buffy had told her after that crazy weekend. "Wait. Scary guy with flaming eyes?"

"That'd be the one," Chris nodded.

"You need any help let me know," Mel replied with a grim tone. "I've done my share of demon slaying."

"Thanks," Chris said. "I haven't, but apparently it's my family's destiny."

Mel gave Chris a sympathetic look. "Yeah. I've gotten an earful on the whole destiny thing to last a lifetime. Well not your destiny, but you know what I mean."

Mel looked at the equipment John had provided and picked up an iron crowbar, salt and the sensing equipment. "So. You want to go after a fake ghost?

"We'll have to grab a cup of coffee sometime and compare stories," Chris said, grabbing an iron crowbar, supplies to burn the bones and a few other things.

"Let's go."
